[Q] USB Debugging disables everytime I enable it - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi mates,
My 'USB debugging' check box keeps disabling itself no matter how much ever I try enabling it. When I am on the screen(developers option), I tap on the check box and see it gets enabled. I click back button and go again inside. It remains disabled
Can someone who came across this help me ? having a rooted mobile without USB debugging is of no use

Ok, It got solved yesterday this way:
You do not need to reinstall drivers on PC.
You do not need to reinstall ROM or anything on your phone.
You do not need *# special codes.
You do not need a new cable or change USB port or change your phone for a new one.
It seems to me that somehow (probably for debugging, connecting and disconnecting several times) the phone locks itself in a state where it is unable to connect again through USB although it charges.
So how did I solve it? I executed this actions several times even in different order some times: disabled debugging, disconnected cable, restarted phone, connected cable, (still not recognizing), tryed to USB Theter (even when the option was disabled), reenable debugging.
Out of nothing i noticed the USB icon was there again in my phone and i was able to debug copy files etc again.
I tried disconnecting and conneceting again and it kept working correctly.
I hope this helps someone else with the same problem and probably someone fixes the bug on the OS.
Cheers!

S2 Root Displaying Error Message - Device is not connected

Hello,
Im trying to flash my phone but having a issue
So i have added the insecure kernel but when i try and do the next part (Run S2 Root) i get the following error
Device is not connected! Please connect the USB cables and try again
Im running the following
S2 Root 1.5.1
Android Version 2.3.6
Kernel Version I9100XWKJ2
Anyone able to help its annoying the hell out of me have tried different USB ports get the same issue
Make sure samsung drivers are installed, try different USB ports, check USB debugging in settings.
If it doesnt work again, try it with a different computer if possible.
Ok when i turn off USB debugging on the phone the PC will connect to it. When it is on it wont?

That needs to be on, so the problem is elsewhere. Did you install samsung drivers, if you did, have you tried different USB ports?
I have downloaded the drivers and still not working
Still cant get it to work

USB storage not working anymore?

Hey
In Android, when you plug in via USB your phone to your PC, in the notification bar, a option is given to show the device as a USB drive. I dont get that option any more and I dont see anywhere to enable it or select it.
How can I do this?
This might be stupid question, but did you try to restart phone and pc?

Yes.
Maybe there is a app for Android to launch itself into storage mode, thinking a USB cable is connected to it and at the same time a PC? Its just strange.
Ive also tried with other USB cables still nothing.

How do I know if I have fast charge enabled?
Also in recovery, as you know, there is a option to enable USB storage which also makes your phone's SD card be viewable in explorer. That doesnt work either.
Im starting to think it is a kernel problem.
Try Flashing the new Clock Work Mod Recovery, I found it in the One X forums and I tried it it worked and it might work for you let me just find it

Um.........Im obviously not going to try some random recovery set by a user and much less without a technical explaination.
Why doesnt this work? And what is that "fast charge" someone mentioned?

@riahc3
Why don't you try what he said, just do this steps.
go to Settings > Applications > Development > find the USB Debugging Mode over there and check whether it is enabled or not.
USB Debugging Mode can be used to copy data between your computer and your device, install applications on your device without notification.
and of course, without java installed on your PC Desktop or Laptop, connectivity between your android phone and PC would create some problems, be sure to update your Java if you have already installed.
And to clarify the issue of fast charger mode. I think it's not related to your problem since you cannot understand what fast charger mode and how to do it in the first place, am I right?. There's a procedure on how to do a fast charger mod and if you want a proof, visit this link which can be found here in XDA, Charger mod, how to USB fast charge.
Hope it helps

[Q] Help! I can't select MTP under USB options!

Hello, so this morning I was looking to transfer some files from my Sprint LG G3 to my PC. I couldn't get the computer to recognize the phone so I attempted to change to 'PTP' under USB options and revert back to Media Device/MTP, hoping it will work. However it didn't, and to make matters worse, I can't select the MTP option eventhough the it show under USB Options - everytime I select MTP it reverts back to either 'PTP' or 'Charge Phone'. The PC does recognize the phone as a camera/PTP and charges the phone but I can't get it work as a media device. I have tried uninstalling/installing the unified G3 drivers and toggled USB debugging on/off but it still not working. I have read somewhere that installing LG PC Suite does solve the issue (instead of the mobile drivers only) but I am not sure it does. Please help guys.

Try wiping cache in recovery and if that does not work.... Reinstall the ROM it could just be something went wrong along the way and it glitched..... You can also try shortcut master just search for "MTP" or "mtp" and try to find a shortcut that would enable it. Also try running *#*#4636#*#* in your dialer. It will make all of your carrier files and stuff like that update running that usually fixes a ton of problems.

I tried wiping my cache in recovery, running the code *#*#4636#*#* and searching for 'MTP/mtp' using shortcut master but all attempts were unsuccessful. I am using Stock ZV4 but I have TWRP installed so I can backup and try factory resetting but I am not confident that would help. I am also saving that as a last resort so If anyone suggests other fixes please help.

Do you have usb debugging enabled? Sometimes that causes it to not work for me, other times it works fine with it enabled.
Edit nevermind, I see you said you have tried it.
##3424# is diag mode enabled?
Sent from my LGLS990 using XDA Free mobile app
Try booting into recovery
Also, have you tried a different usb port on your computer? It will reinstall the drivers each time you change ports. Also, you should be able to select MTP without being plugged into the computer by going to storage in settings, and in the menu should be the pc connection settings. Does it do the same thing when not plugged into the computer?

Edit: I just tried a few different ways, DIAG mode enabled, USB Debugging enabled, each work, and at the same time, for me.
Below is the LG Drivers i have installed right now.
LGUnitedMobileDriver_S51MAN313AP22_ML_WHQL_Ver_3.13.2.exehttp://tool.xcdn.gdms.lge.com/dn/downloader.dev?fileKey=UW00120120425
So I have tried per your suggestion - tries disabling DIAG mode and (again) tried switching USB debugging off - no change. I have also tried different USB ports and different computers too. Surprisingly I couldn't find 'PC Connections setting' under storage in settings. Also tried looking under security and developer options. The only way I can try switching to MTP is when I plug the phone into a PC and a 'USB Options' menu appears in the notification bar. I am starting to think the Issue is with the phone and not the PC"s. I will try installing the drivers you suggested though.
I have the same problem on my Nexus 6, OP are you solved the problem?
This problem was already resolved in another thread and the resolution was to... I know its going to sound so stupid but to select mtp AGAIN lol..
If you have Clean master Uninstall it, Or just remove permissions from it , It'll work

Recover data from a phone with broken digitalizer

I know this question was asked over, and over, and yet over again.
However, the discussions over the topic go over many, many pages, are not noob-friendly (the noob in question is me).
My device:
LG Optimus G (E975); stock; no root; no USB debugging; locked bootloader (I think)
The screen is working, the digitizer is not.
I can get into recovery.
I can copy the files from DCIM.
I have found this soft: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2786395
I was able to make it work with another device. Maybe that's a good way to go? If I can get the USB debugging to turn on I could get all my data this way.
Also, when I get the broken phone into recovery mode, connect it to computer and use 'adb devices' it shows up as ' LG<some number of the phone> recovery>' - I don't know if it is a good sign or just 'meh, they all do that'.
What I want from the old phone:
Contacts. Unfortunately, when the phone broke it has not been synchronized with Google for some time, and some of the crucial contacts are lost.
All other data would be a nice bonus.
Since I can get the above software to work I think that what I need to do is 'just' enable USB debugging through ADB.
HOWEVER, to do this I think I need to get a custom rom? And that means rooting? WHICH would lead to data lost. I hope I'm wrong.
Any advice? Besides the 'get a new digitalizer and put it on'?
Please, help the noob!

To enable usb debugging you don't need root or anything. just go to settings > about phone > tap "build number" 7 times > back to settings > new menu "developer options" should appear > turn USB debugging on. When you connect your phone to the PC with ADB opened your phone will ask for authorisation - authorise connection and you're good to go.

This is a good sign, because it means ADB recognizes the phone and you can use it.
Thanks for the reply.
The thing is - the touch is not responding. So I can't turn it on through the menu.
