Hi guys. Please help in solving the problem. Since the answer can not find anywhere else.
The essence of the problem as follows:
Phone Samsung Galaxy Note 5 GT-N9208 has ceased to be determined by connecting to a computer, does not define when I connect the phone OTG flash drive, but there is a charge easily with any charging device, including a computer. The flash mode phone is not detected on your computer (connected to different computers, the result is the same), which advise to do? Called the service center Samsung said the phone is not in our region, so they will not do it. I apologize for the English.
Hi I'm wondering if anybody is able to help.
I have a Note 8 and would like to connect it to my 2017 iMac running High Sierra. When I plug my Note 8 in it automatically launches Android file transfer and file transfer usb mode on the phone but I get "Could not connect to device, Try reconnecting or restarting your device". The phone is in the correct mode and knows it's connected to a Mac as it advises I download AFT or Samsung Switch.
The Note connects to a older 2009 MacBook without a glitch and the only difference being I get a Allow prompt every time it connects to the MacBook and not the iMac. (This seems to be the issue not having an allow prompt)
I have reinstalled AFT and are using the supplied USB C cable.
I previously owned a Nexus 6 which connect to the iMac with out issue.
I have just tried a Galaxy Xcover 3 and same issue so it seems to be a Samsung related problem
Many Thanks

So the story is that i got a samsung galaxy note 5 (n920i) with a broken screen from my sister and it worked fine before. A year later i fixed the phone and wiped the files, cache and stuff i noticed that it did not charge with my aftermarket charging cable (battery was at 0%). I thought the cable was screwed so i used an official samsung one and it started charging. once it started up i did all the startup installation process and such but then i noticed that it would not use fast charge (i have an official samsung fast charge socket) even with the fast charge setting on. so i thought to plug it into my pc but it does not recognise it at all. (device descriptor request failed every time) I used many different ports on my pc and laptop, used many aftermarket and official charging cables, i even used it on devices like the gear vr and a docking station and they dont recognise it either.
I found a post saying to push up the tongue in the charging port which did not fix it, i tried all such drivers and fixes thinking its my pc and/or laptop but no luck, like i said i even used devices like docking station and gear vr and both dont recognise it either. So i just thought it may be the charging port its self and purchased a new one to install(i also got a new battery just incase) . After replacing both the charging dock and the battery successfully it still does not work on my pc nor does it charge properly. it is running on the newest update out right now.
edit: I also lost the little white signal cable for the antenna while replacing charge port but i have purchased a new one and its on the way. (if that causes an issue)
I have tried using samsung kies and smart switch with drivers and it does not recognise it either
I dont know what else to do can someone help me figure it out whats wrong.
Thanks
I have the same problem.
Is there any way to root note 5 n920v without pc?
My phone have a problem that does not connect to pc with usb cable, my last hope is to try to install a new firmware.
By research, i think its a software problem.

Hey guys, as the title says - I am having difficulty with transferring files across from my Samsung S21 Ultra to my PC.
I have tried:
- Developer mode, enable USB Debug
- ^ + set default debug to be FTP
- keypad *#0808# and select MTP+ADB
- In the notification bar, clicked the 'charging' notification (that sends me to battery, not to pick another option)
I do not have the original samsung cable as it was of poor quality and failed after 2 months however I am using Anker cables, I use them for file transfers on other devices such as cameras, VR headsets and other phones - they work perfectly fine on everything except my S21 Ultra. I have also tried different PCs/Laptops in case its a driver issue.
Phone specs:
Model number - SM-G998B/DS
Running the latest version of Android.
If anyone can help me, that would be great. I really don't want to factory reset as that means losing the things I want to keep anyway which is just a lose lose.
If you can't find a solution quickly right now, then just use this: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.primftpd&hl=en_US&gl=US
FE Explorer can also do something similar.
Or, Samsung Flow or something else.
Also, are you mostly trying this on Windows or something else?
Ensure usb-drivers for Samsung phones are installed on your pc. E.g. by installing smartswitch on you pc.

No need to install anything.
If it's Windows, just go to Windows Update at some point after you connect the phone.
Click "Check for Updates" and/or go into "Optional Updates" and you'll find that the driver is waiting to be installed ON YOUR COMMAND.

Surely I wouldn't need an additional app to transfer files? I'm doing this on the latest build of Windows 10 21H2 and also on a Windows 11 laptop, my P20 Pro transfers just fine but the S21 Ultra doesn't read anything as something other than a charger.

Do you have super display installed? I had an issue where I had super display installed and could not connect my phone for file transfer until I turned the super display service off in my services on Windows.
I am having the same issue and as I can recall it was after the recent update strange may be.
Open driver manager from within control panel, right click on portable devices and update MTP driver for Samsung phone. Press allow on your phone and you should be good to go.
I'm using Solid Explorer over WiFI, no issues
If you're using a corporate windows you need to install the media feature pack. Otherwise just try a different cable, some don't work. I had the same issue when using my old huawei cable, used the one that came with s21u and was fine.
Try disabling DeX in the phone settings. It worked for me..
Just a quick question guys, does the S21 Ultra come with a USB 3 data speed cable or is that something I'd have to buy on amazon etc. Thanks.
A few days ago I bought a used S10 with Android 11 (Build: RP1A.200720.012.G973FXXU9EUA4, Stock ROM).
The previous owner rooted the S10 via Magisk because he had problems with Android Auto and his car stereo.
Root didn't solve the problem and he removed root again.
He couldn't close the bootloader afterwards, so the bootloader is still open. He said he didn't have installed/flashed TWRP or any custom rom..
Since then, the USB interface no longer works properly.
No data connection to the PC can be established, only charging works.
All devices that are connected to the S10 via an OTG cable are recognized, but only for charging. Other options in the S10 USB settings cannot be activated.
But, the connection to a screen via a USB-C to HDMI adapter (DELL DA200) works without any problems. The S10 recognizes the monitor directly as an external display and the monitor also shows the screen content of the S10.
I think it's a software problem, right?
I tested different USB-C cables, several OTG cables with different PCs and notebooks. No PC/notebook recognizes the S10 and no other USB device is recognized by the S10..
Is there a way to re-flash the S10 with Stock ROM and close the bootloader?
Maybe via ADB over Wifi?
Or is there another way to restore the data functionality?
I absolutely need the data functionality because I want to fly my Dji drone with the S10.
Greetings and thanks in advance
My problem is now "solved".
Yesterday I went into donload mode via WLAN ADB and locked the bootloader again.
The result was that the S10 only booted into download mode.
**** happens.....
Fortunately, I was able to buy a completely destroyed S10 (display and back cover) nearby for little money and convert the mainboard into my S10.
Thanks to everyone for the many input and the many tips.
