File Transfer - Xiaomi Mi 9 Questions & Answers

I have Redmi S9 with broken screen. Is it possible to transfer my files to PC? That phone also has PIN lock screen.

If the USB debugging on your phone is opened, and your phone can be detected by the computer via USB cable, you can transfer files to PC easily. Usually, you can do that via Copy & Paste. Or you can also ask for help from Xiaomi data manager tool like Coolmuster Android Backup Manager, etc. Its free backup function can help you do that easily. It also support WiFi connect. You need to make sure your phone and the computer are in the same network. Hope this will be your help.

[Q] not getting detected by any PC via USB

My S Advance I-9070 recently got formatted. I was able to recover my installed Apps, photos, music via gmail account. However Contacts which were on the phone, couldn't get restored. Since i have a contacts.spb recent copy, on my PC, tried to connect S Advance to this PC and it is not getting detected as additional device. The Samsung Kies software also doesn't recoganize the phone. Except that the phone battery gets charged when connected. I tried different cables and PCs, and took to a service center, this phone didn't get recognised. I have backed up all data to SD card on the phone. Is this a new issue with S Advance ?
Please help.

Try to turn USB debbuging on, and see if something shows up in Windows explorer.
If you are on JB: Settings> Developer Options> USB Debugging

1. Unplug the USB cable
2. 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.
The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
3. Plug the USB cable.
Try settings-more settings under wireless and network. There are 2 to try. Usb utilities if that does not work. Try turning kies on or off on the phone. No idea why but kies on the phone does it on both computers I use with my 9070. Drivers can be a real pain for this too. When i upgraded to LQG I had to update the drivers too, but that could be my computer too.

Broken screen, want to retrieve files via USB.

Hello, my captivate screen broke (zero display) and I'd like to retrieve some the files mostly vids and pics from the phone memory.
I have downloaded the mini abd on my PC. The phones two drive paths are shown on my PC via USB cable, but says "insert disk". So how can I use abd to mount the phone as external storage so I can browse and copy files? I know "enable USB debugging" was already checked. Phone is rooted with CM10.1
This is my first attempt with adb....so I'll need the dummy explanation.
I hope that makes sense, thank you for reading!
Hope this helps. Check the links below.

MTP - Can't copy files to device

Since I upgraded my Z3 Compact to Lollipop I'm unable to copy files or folder from my PCs to the device.
I plug in the USB cable, it informs me that it's connected in MTP mode. When I open explorer in Windows I can
Copy data from device to PC.
Delete files on the device from Explorer.
Create Folders on the device from Explorer.
Copy Folders to the device from Explorer.
But I CANNOT copy any actual files to the device.
I've tried the usual things, different USB cables/ports, various PC and OS variants. No joy on Win XP, 7, 8, 8.1, 10. Tried installing PC companion software, various versions of drivers and nothing seems to work. I don't have an SDCard installed (don't ordinarily need it or have one) so I can't use MSC mode.
It's incredibly irritating that something so basic no longer works. Anyone have any ideas that don't involve going back to 4.4? Thanks.
Have same problem on Xperia Z1, no clue what to do. Just using ShareIt for now...

HELP!! Cannot access files!

Hi guys I reaaly need your help!!
1. so basically what happened is my screen is dead but phone is not! i managed to connect the phone to my work pc via usb cable and copied all the data i needed.
2. then somehow the pc hard drive died and i installed a new SSD one but unfortunately i accidentaly deleted a cruical partition on the faulty hdd so all the copied S6 contecnt is now gone.
3. dont ask me how but now, on my new freshly installed OS on my new ssd, i connect the phone again and try to access its folder but nothing is there!
** could i have somehow deleted a samsung partition as well through the windows 10 installation process? (seems unlikely i think).
** could the phone be displaying a question about how i would like to use the usb cable (charging only or data transfer)? if so why would this suddenly happen?
** I tried connecting to another pc but same issuer persists. the driver installs but cannot see files.
** could it possibly work on my home pc because it was previously connected there?
** the icon on the pc is that of a media transfer like an mp3 player. when i access it there are no files but when i right click i dont have an option to add folders so i'm guessing this maybe a permissions issue?
how can I access the files on the phone?! THANKS!!!
just to update i got it all sorted out trying to press randomly on the phone apparently i managed to access the files so what i can understand is that the phone keeps a list of all the pc's its ever been connected to and a setting of which connection type to allow this pc.
As soon as i formatted the pc, the phone recognized it as new and probably asked my if i want charging or data transfer. somehow i managed to chose data transfer!
Thanks a lot anyways and have a great day

File Transfer stops mid way

Hello Realme X2 Pro owners,
I am lately facing an issue where I tried to transfer a movie to the phone through USB and the progress bar proceeds only for some time and then stops. The file is not transferred. However small files like the subtitle files and other pics are copied over. I have tried the usual steps
restarting phone and PC
changing the USB type to file transfer from the drag down
toggling the various options in developer mode for file transfer and pic transfer
enabled and disabled USB debugging.
I had tried to unlock the bootloader to install a custom rom last month; however as the new update does not allow the fastboot option it did not allow the deep check app to run completely. AM not sure if this has anything to do with it. I am still on the STOCK Realme 1.0 March update.
EDIT: Miraculously it now works. Nothing changed, nothing done.
So glad to hear that. Next time, maybe you can try a third-party program like Coolmuster Android Assistant to help you do that. Such program can help you add videos to your phone via USB cable easily. Hope this will be your help.
