Then your device is connected! Try turning off USB debugging.

USB connections acting very weird.

So my USB connection was fine just the other day.. now its not.
When I connect it to a computer or charger, mtp connected shows up. It only shows up when plugged into the computer, or when the battery is 100% on charger.
When I connect sometimes USB connected briefly comes up but never long enough for me to mount
I have checked the USB debugging mark but it doesn't change anything.
What can I do? It was working on the same firmware the other day...
Please help!
It now says mtp connected, but the computer doesn't recognize it. What is mtp and what can I do?

Just tick USB Debugging (go to settings, applications, development and tick it)

Try updating .net framework on your pc.
Also, manually point your device manager to install USB driver for samsung.
ADB should help you get the right drivers.

I'm on a Mac so it shouldn't be a problem, because Macs don't need drivers right?
I used it the other day with no problem.. now this!

Bump for help.

Have you ticked USB debugging off rebooted phone and ticked it back on again? MTP isn't supposed to be on if USB debugging is.

xperia x10 problem

I got problems with the usb on my Xperia X10i. Everytime I connect the device to the computer it only charges the phone and nothing else; the computer says "unkown device" . I tried installing the drivers, pc companion, SE update....i've tried even rooting with superone click or flashing with flashtool but it doesn't recognize the device at all...
Oh, and something else, when I connect the phone to the computer it doesn't even display the message to chose the option ( mass storage, only charging, etc) and I can't even find Usb connectivity on phone.
Android: 2.3.3
Baseband 2.1.72
Kernel: 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537
please help...!
Hey refldo
- When you connect mobile in flash mode to flashtool, doesn't recognize it?
- for usb storage check the following attachment by going to settings, storage, menu button, USB storage

To root the phone you need to turn on the ANDROID DEBUGGING in your settings.. go to settings->apps->development->USB/ANDROID DEBUGGING.... now flashtool should recognize your phone... also install drivers present in the flashtool folder....

In flashtool, when I press the back key and plug the usb cable nothing happens. It shows only the message with "unknown device"
I've tried to look for usb storage but when I a press the menu button nothing happens

Reinstall sony's PC companion... that usually reinstalls drivers... but before you reinstall go to device manager in you laptop and uninstall existing drivers... so that when you reinstall the software there is no problems...

After I did that, in sony's pc companion when I connect the phone it shows for 2 seconds "searching for phone" and after that "no phone connected".
Can I somehow install a new firmware from the sd card? Maybe it'll work this way...

You can't install new firmware without rooting and installing custom recovery... use SEUS (PC companion) to repair your phone...

There is this step where it asks me to turn of the phone, hold the back key and plug in the usb cable...but nothing happens ( only the pop up message "USB device tot recognized" )
just to know, Only happens with your computer? Or with all computers that you tried to connect?
Refldo.. I think you need to install drivers again but remove drivers which are already installed... it looks more n more driver issue....

with all the computers.
I've tried on different computers with the different usb cables, so I don't think that's the problem.

Nope... Its better than seven. When your device connected enter device manager remove unknown device. Remove cable from usb. Remove all drivers including kies. Reboot pc. Reinstall universal drivers or kies not both. Reboot pc. When pc fully activated remove battery of phone plug cable to only phone. Put battery enter odin mode as soon as you enter odin mode plug usb to pc but different usb port recomended. Wait pc recognized drivers.
If this wont work change cable a new one if you can get. And try with the new cable.
Edit: As i see its a second hand phone it may have a problem with usb port of phone if nothing works. Jig uses two legs of usb so the charge. One leg in common with jig and charge so one leg left behind which may have a problem.

Ok ill try that when I get home. All my Xperias drivers install fine and i installed drivers for myy android tv box last night and rooted it.

[Q] Problem with XPERIA U

A little while ago I downgraded my XPERIA U to Android Version 2.3.7 , because it was malfunctioning on 4.0.4.
Ever since the downgrade,the phone has been doing fine , but when I connect it to PC through USB cable , the computer doesn't recognize the phone's memory.
At the moment of plugging , Sony PC Companion shows a little box at the bottom right corner of the screen , giving the message "Wait for the device to get connected" ,
soon after it says "My Sony XPERIA U (ST25) is connected" , but once I click on Launch Sony PC Companion , it shows the connection error with the 4-step guide.
I followed the guide but that didn't do any good.
Any tips ?

I reckon "USB debugging mode" is not available on Xperia U.
The only possible option for USB connection mode is "Media transfer mode" (MTP) and like I said,
It's the only possible option, and therefore can't be changed.

USB Debugging issue

had a device Samsung Galaxy Pop SHV-E220 ( not root and can't root it ), in setting enabled USB Debugging mode but when connect it to PC, shows connected as Media Device (MTP) ? how to solve this issue ?
I want to use ADB to flash recovery and to set install location etc.
regards.
Just make sure you have correct drivers

You need Debugging drivers.
Go to Google, search Samsung USB Drivers, download and install them.
This will solve your problem.
Press Thanks if helped.
