USB connection dialogue not showing up, unable to connect - Samsung Galaxy S10 Questions & Answers

I have a very weird issue with my S10: it wont connect via usb to pc. Once connected a notification should display and the option "file transfer" should be there, but no such menu appears. When i plug it in to a pc it just starts charging, the pc also does not see a (bad) usb connection or whatever. I have been reading fora and watching youtube for over 1,5 hours. I feel now is the time to ask for help.
What might be usefull context: i have had the "moisture detected" error many times, it started showing up 2 weeks after i bought the device. Gladly i mainly use wireless charging so effectively it hasnt bothered me much, but it was weird since even after waiting for hours for the phone to dry (i dont think it was wet but whatever) the error was still there. One week ago the problem got quite severe, lasted for more than 24 hours and it just refused to charge, tried rebooting, turning it off, going into safe mode... to no avail. I had no wireless charger then, it was nasty.
I am using the usb cable provided by samsung (but used two others as well).
What i tried:
wiping cache and data from usb settings
wiping cache via recovery
reinstalling samsung drivers to pc
looking for a yellow exclamation mark in device manager on pc (not there)
different usb cables
different pc's
different ports on pc
rebooting the phone
booting in safe mode
installed dex on pc
via developper mode select file transfer as standard
via developper mode select any of the other modes to see if that helps
via developper mode revoked usb debugging authorizations
via developper mode enable usb debugging
The next logical step seems a factory reset. I am unwilling to do that however, since there are many gigs of photo's on the device that i want to backup first (the whole point of trying to connect it via usb heheh).
Your advice please!

Your could try to reflash your present OS via Odin but when doing so remember to use HOME_CSC. This way your data will be present when done flashing and phone reboots.

How he can do the flash with odin when phone is not recognized by the computer !

Clean the charging port with a clean toothbrush and try again ... Also make sure that the charging cable supports data transfer ... If you tried all of these things and did not work, then most likely the charging port has a problem that may be oxidized or cut in the tracks..Try the solution that I gave it to you, and if it doesn't work, take it to a technician

charge from the wall.

I too have a similar predicament. Tried all the cables and USB ports I could get my hands on... I have a custom ROM also, so it could be that. I have done a full format and reflashed ROM (from SD card) - but it made no difference, the phone refuses to communicate via USB.
SO, if you have any solutions, please let me know!
I can however communicate via ADB over network. So, if you know some adb commands you can pull over an entire folder with the "adb pull" command.

Problem with usb afer flashing JP6

After flashing to JP6 (which works ok) i'm unable to connect thru usb.
Odin wont connect, Kies wont connect, mass storage doesn't work.
I noticed that after the flash, when i connect the wall charger a popup appears asking me how to connect (kies, mass storace, etc).
When i connect the normal usb cable to the phone and computer, nothing happens. It charges, but doesn't connect.
I tried uninstalling and installing kies, reboots, wipe cache, factory resets..
Anyone??

I am definitely not an expert of anykind at all but it sounds like to me that the new software has the mapping for those 2 fuctions backwards.
Dont know if this can be changed by some simple "re-programming" or not but that is waht it sounds like to me.
If Im wrong anyone... Please correct me. I am always looking to learn!!!
You should go to Settings -> Wireless and network -> USB settings -> select Ask on connection.
when you connect, does it reboot and loop into a charging mode ie: showing a battery and a "wait" icon?
If so, I had the same issue with my first device within 3 days of using. Only thing I did was rooting and Voodoo fix (i'm not sure if I used the lagfixed for my device or for another one). If you have the same issue, I think you could revert back to stock using an SD card to transfer an update.zip of a stock image, might be worth a try
Guys, thanks for the help. When i woke up today, i gave it another try, and it worked like it should..
Still al little confused though..

[Q] Zero connectivity in download mode. £10 for solution. :)

Okay a little backstory:
I was on an early version of CM9 but as i am selling the phone i decided to put a more stable version of it on there and downloaded CM7 -stable.
I flashed this in CWM and it worked fine.
I gave it a quick test and noticed all the google apps were missing, most importantly the market. So i booted into recovery and realised i had forgotten to put the zip on the SD card.
I then went into mounts and mounted USB, nothing happened...
From that point onwards the phone would not talk to the PC. even if i booted up into the phone, it would just show it as charging. I could not find any options in the menus for USB options.
After some extensive reading, i tried a few things, none of them had worked. I found a post mentioning some kernels have issues with USB, so i downloaded the recommended one and flashed it in CWM.
After rebooting, CWM was now orange and not blue and the option to flash from external card has gone.
I have also done some digging and there is a good posibility that the kernal that i flashed was for the GT I9000 (which is the american one, right?)
So as it is at the moment:-
I can get into CWM.
I can get into download mode through the 3 button combo.
I can get into download mode using home made jig.
I can boot the phone, but it boot loops.
I can not get the phone to be detected on the pc.
Things i have checked:
Cable will connect other phones.
Tried different cable to be sure.
Phone used to be detected, but downloaded drivers through kies again to be sure.
Closed Kies using task manager.
Nothing is coming up in network connections in device manager when phone is connected.
I'm out of ideas now, so £10 PayPal donation for anyone that comes up with the solution to fix it
If i can get it detected, i can use Odin to flash what i want.
Sounds like a drivers problem. You may need the 'Google driver' developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html
When I had bootloops when I first installed CM9 I used heimdall to flash a the stock CM9 kernel. This gave me back CWM.
heimdall flash --kernel 'kernel.zip'
In the commandline.
Thanks for that,
I already had the Google USB drivers from when i installed the SDK to make some apps.
So i then gave Heimdall a try (Graphical Version), it seemed to suffer the same problem.
Reporting "Failed to detect compatible download-mode device."
I seem to remember the GUI saying I didn't have the correct drivers and it downloaded them for me.
The other thing worth a try is changing the USB port and reinstalling the correct drivers on that port.
I've not seen anything like that, it has not asked me for any drivers.
It's like the phone is not connected at all. nothing will detect it, i have even tried it on another PC.
Sorry, I'm not sure what you mean by installing on a port.
Well sometimes changing USB port will allow you to install new drivers. Although if you've tried it in another computer and it doesn't work then changing port may not help.
Does the phone appear in device manager when it's connected and in download mode?
Nope. Not coming up at all in the device manager. It didn't when it was booting fine. And it still doesn't in download mode. :-( I'm thinking the usb connector on the phone might be faulty.
But it was working up until trying to mount the USB in CWM

I don't suppose you have access to a Linux PC do you? Windows USB drivers are notoriously sucky. If you could plug it into a Linux PC and type 'lsusb' at a command line, that would at least show you that the device is really there.
I think I have a spare pc kicking around that I could use. I'll give it a go when I get home tonight.

Remove all the drivers completely from device manager for Samsung, then install fresh drivers and connect the cable when in download mode, hopefully it will recognize it
Are you sure the connector is clean? e.g. maybe there's dust in it.
I had that problem once, the connector was full of fabric fibers from some coat's pocket I had the phone in.
Suggestion 1 (Linux): I installed ubuntu, did not detected anything to even install any drivers. Detected my new phone fine.
Suggestion 2 (Uninstall drivers from device manager): I could not find any drivers named with the name Samsung in there.
Suggestion 3 (Clean port): I have some compressed air that i sprayed inside, it does look pretty clean and will continue to charge but still not connection on the pc.
To install the drivers for heimdall you have to run zdiag from inside the driver folder. Had to do this earlier on, the phone the other appeared as something other than Samsung composite usb or whatever it normally says
I tried this, and it displayed 9 devices after selecting show all. I seemed to recognise all of the items in the menu.
To be sure, I then disconnected the phone and re ran it to see if one of the items were missing, but it was the same number.
I too had problem with the usb connection on my i9000, and I was pretty sure my usb connector on the phone is somewhat damaged since it sometimes can only go to charging mode without being detected by my pc as a usb device. CWM instal is fine but ODIN can only detect the phone without able to flash the rom to the phone. The flashing will always stuck at the message "Setting Up Connection", I waited for 15 minutes and the flashing will eventually died. I retry the odin flash for 40 to 50 times and eventually the flashing will go through one time. Tried heidmall command line and the result is the same.
I have problem with Odin in the past. I bought a new laptop, running Win7 64 bit. Installed Samsung Kies to install the correct USB drivers for the phone. Then made sure that Kies wasn't running in the background. So tried using Odin. Odin was detecting the phone, but it was hanging at initialising connection. Odin was working fine on my old laptop running Win7 32bit. Long story short, I was having a few issues with my new laptop, reinstalled Win7 64bit, now Odin is working fine, have flashed the phone a few times using the new computer.
After flashing which kernel you started facing this problem?
Wipe ur phone,re-flash CM7(flash the nightly 181,it's completely stable),uninstall KIES,uninstall old usb drivers,install these usb drivers http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=961956 ,check that USB storage mode is set as Mass Storage and then connect your phone. Also try enabling/disabling USB debugging

The point at which i could no longer mount the USB was when i selected "mount usb" from CWM. I later installed a new kernal which downgraded my CWM, removing the install from external SD option.
So I cant flash a re-flash a rom unless i can it onto the phone which without the USB working is near impossible.

You can directly download the ROM on your internal sd using dolphin browser or opera mobile
I can't do that either as the phone is currently boot looping.

USB connection to PC not working

My phone was working perfectly until a few days ago when I noticed that USB connection to PC stopped working. I was running imilkas CM9 v2. USB used to work perfectly and then randomly, it just stopped working, I don't have a clue what caused it because I did not flash anything on the phone.
When I connect my Phone to the Computer via USB cable, my phone start charging and nothing else happens. My computer does not even show that I connected a USB device.
I've tried 3 other computers with the drivers and the same issue (1 comp with xp and the others with win 7). Also, not to mention, I've tried multiple USB cables, including the original. I've tried USB Debugging on and off, doesn't make a difference.
I've tried ADB and it does not recognize the device either.
In CWM when I mount USB storage, it does not work.
In download mode, when I plug in the cable, nothing happens, odin does not detect any connection.
USB connection to the computer is Dead and it does nothing but charge my phone.
Here is a list of things I've already tried to fix the issue:
1. Factory Reset.
2. Used Mobile Odin, reverted to my Phone's Stock GB ROM (KK2). On stock GB, I tried Kies Air and that worked fine, but USB connection had the same issue
3. Formatted the Internal Storage
4. Removed the SIM Card and Micro SD card, still no luck.
5. re-installed CWM (without pc)
6. Installed Paranoid Android 0.2
7. Called Samsung... They said they wont service my phone because I'm located in Canada and I have the International Note. They told me I'd have to take it to the country I bought it from.
If anyone can offer any help that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

Phone used to work perfectly fine before. Already flashed original rom, it did nothing. And I've already talked to Samsung. They won't help me.
I've already mentioned that in my op! I would be nice to hear suggestions/solutions other than the ones I've mentioned.
Can anyone please help me out with this? I even tried cleaning the usb port a bit more, but no avail. I am guessing the file that recognizes a PC connection got corrupted some how. Anyone know how to update or replace that?

USB connection to the computer is Dead and it does nothing but charge my phone. I've searched this issue and I believe its called a USB BRICK
[THINGS I'VE TRIED THAT DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE]
1. Factory Reset.
2. Used Mobile Odin, reverted to my Phone's Stock GB ROM (KK2). On stock GB, I tried Kies Air and that worked fine, but USB connection had the same issue. Also tried Stock ICS via Mobile Odin
3. Formatted the Internal Storage
4. Removed the SIM Card and Micro SD card, still no luck.
5. re-installed CWM manually (without pc)
6. Tried various different roms in the development section
7. Called Samsung... They said they wont service my phone because I'm located in Canada and I have the International Note. They told me I'd have to take it to the country I bought it from.
8. Replaced the micro USB hardware component inside the phone (bought it from ebay)
9. Tried a Jig to see if it recognizes that and it booted me into download mode but doesn't recognize the USB connection to PC.
I've been struggling with this issue for the past 2 months and have gotten sick of this issue.:crying: I've tried all that was possible based on my knowledge and now I need some serious help. I've posted this issue in the Q&A before and about 3 people responded with suggestions that I had already mentioned in thread. I believe this issue might be caused by a file that has gotten corrupted on the phone because i've even replaced the hardware (usb port) and it didn't change anything. If anyone can offer any help/suggestions that would be great. Sorry for making this such a long post but I really need some help and wanted to give as much info as possible.
Thanks in advance.
I had that same problem before, it's really frustrating having tried so many stuff before finally I gave up and went to service center to replace the usb hardware module, which solves the problem. When I asked them why it happened and how to prevent that same thing to happen again, they didn't answer.

I am well versed in replacing hardware components myself. The usb module I bought from ebay does exactly the same thing as the original one. It too charges but does not recognize PC connectivity which means it wasnt the usb module which was defective, its something else!
I would love to send it in for repair, but Samsung WON'T service my phone because I live in Canada and they do not sell the international Note here. When I called them they told me to take it to where I bought it from (which was in UAE). Since I am not going there and have no plans to go there, I am stuck with a phone that can't be warrantied!
Any one know how to fix this issue?
Maybe what you need is just to replace the usb cable... Who knows? (trying-to-help mode).

I appreciate the suggestions tho
Try another set of driver from Samsung.
The set in the file from link below works perfectly for me:

If it does not work then, maybe, try to change rom. Load a custom rom.zip to external sdcard and flash using CWM.

1. download latest version of kies for PC
2. uninstall previous kies (if any) and install new one.
3. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284#
Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode. (Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.)
4. Plug the USB cable.

Hmm it looks like your issue was different.. at least you were getting some sort of message that you connected your phone. When I connect it to the computer, its as if nothing happened. I've even tried linux and its just that the phone isnt recognizing its connected to a computer, it thinks its connected to a charger.

I faced a similar problem a few days ago. Here's what I did :
Try cleaning micro usb port by rubbing alcohol using paper strips. They should be thin enough so that you can clean both top and bottom part of the port.Then let it dry under the sun or by itself.Make sure that you don't blow any air into the port else condensation may occur.
By the way, is it monsoon season there in Canada ?

Almost same situation here from the highlighted above. when I plug my charger in the usb it just charge the phone and PC cannot detect it. Also, it only charge the phone when i reboot it. If I unplug the charger while the phone is on, and plug the charger back, it will not charge. However, when I insert the usb cable in my phone, there is a notification in my phone which says "usb connector connected" but the PC cannot detect my phone for mass storage, as well as for Kies and Odin.
My usb port was already replaced by Samsung but same problem still occurs. It could be a software/configuration related issue. Or could it be a usb brick? Pls help.
have you tried to put the phone in download mode and checked if odin is able to detect the phone.. what rom are you on.. have you tried to flash a stock rom ?

Make sure the cable is properly connected. Check for dust that might prevent it going in properly. Try a different cable. What OS are you using? I found where bootloader is dmg or incomplete Windows fails to detect it. Linux on the other hand detects it. Can't use it but you can detect it.
Can you connect to SW Update Mode? Battery out and plug into PC while holding vol up button.
If nothing works try taking it into the shop.

You can root your phone from there. If you have SW Update. I recommend taking it into the shop if you are still under warranty, If you don't have warranty then you can go ahead and root. Just install a patched bin and fls with Smart Flash Tool. It's one of the stickies (How to unbrick, I think)
hi
new to Android nation
I have the same issue when connecting to USB...
And I managed to flash with custom firmware (latest ZEUS version) and I rooted but the issue with USB connection is still there...
Anyway, I wiil try connecting it to Linux to check if that would work with USB connecting
UPDATE:
OK after some digging, I managed to (at least temporally) solve the issue... After fresh installing official 2.3.4 firmware I booted to recovery and from there formatted the system folder and then installed Zeus v7 firmware... anyway, USB connection and charging indicator work fine at first booting to system... As soon as I reboot the OS USB connection (and charging) get unstable, and after third reboot it completely goes away and the device does not recognize anything: if I connect USB cable it does not show any sing (charging indicator does not show battery charging, nor the device offers me to connect in mass storage, windows recognizes only modem but not the USB storage) and when I connect charger, battery indicator does not flash as charging... Battery monitor tool shows that "battery is discharging" even though the battery capacity seems to increase (according to growing percentage of battery capacity)... Is there a some kind of USB server... I am a total noob to Androiid OS (used to be Symibian from its beggining )so I hope you won`t mind if I used wrong terms in my explanation/comment...
I hope my explanation is not confusing
Cheers
UPDATE 2:
After installing Zeus v7.01 update, battery charging recognition got fixed using both USB cable and wall charger...
Anyway, USB recognition by PC problem still exists... But when in recovery mode I can successfully mount SD card to PC in Mass storage mode...
Will keep you updated... :victory:
