Just got a Galaxy S3 a few days ago, everything was going fine. Transferring music to my phone from my MacBook Pro using Android File Transfer. Half way through the app stops transferring and I have to force quit on my laptop. Now when I reattach my usb cable I get the following message: "No Android device found Please connect your Android device with a USB cable to get started" My cable is connected, my phone is charging, but the phone is not showing that it is connected (no usb in notifications, can't choose between MTP/PTP...) So I can't continue to transfer my music I restarted both my MacBook Pro and phone. I tried to see if its my phone by connecting to my dock in my car and everything works fine, my Car Home Ultra app opens and works fine. HELP please. How can I get my phone to recognize my cpu via USB? It was working fine, but now nothing other than charging. I read on another thread too toggle USB debugging in developer options, tried both to no avail. Help please, I am an Android noob.
Hi there,
I've got really strange problem with my XPERIA MINI PRO - when I plug in the headphones, the phone wouldn't recognize them.
Only if I've had them plugged before BOOT of my phone.
So, when Iam turning on / rebooting my phone with plugged phones, they're working and recognized, but when I disconnect them, same problem -> phone ignores it.
So, my xperia mini pro can't recognize the action of plugging in phones in general. Have tried official kernel, custom kernel, few roms and its deffinitely a hardware problem.
Does anyone knows how does this phone recognize that? And what might be my problem?
Thanx for any ideas.

i have a similar problem on mine, but mine thinks it has headphones plugged it all the time! i downloaded an app called "headset toggle" it gives you a widget on your home screen to show if headphones are connected or not, and clicking on the icon forces a connect or disconnect of them regardless of wether they are connected or not, should fix your problem:

edit: just to add i have 4.0.4 and it works perfect on my phone
Headset not recognising
i am facing the similar problem...... my headset is also not detecting when i plug in, detecting only when i reset my phone and when i unplug again it's not detecting. i face this problem since i update my mobile to latest version (ICS 4.0.4)

Hello,
I had the exact same problem. It was a hardware problem. The only way is to take it in for service as I did. was repaired at electronics level.
Is it possible to solve this problem with headphones? Any app? Toggleheadset does not work for me. Thanks

did you use a SE headphone or a normal headphone?
i got similar problem. If jack isnt plugged in, there are some electronical noises in microphone, so i cant use, if i remove jack, the phone doesnt recognize. i ToggleHeadset, now microphone works good, and recognized that i removed the jack
what hardware causes this problem? i ask it because i bring my mini pro friday to the service, and maybe i'll ask about it there for repair.

This is a halfway software solution to make the phone work, for a complete repair i believe taking the phone to service is necessary.
I have a hardware problem where xperia mini pro (Stock Rom ICS 4.0.4) is constantly detecting headphones connecting and disconnecting. This stops all the multimedia with sound, so it was impossible to start a music file or video because it was automaticly paused).
Disabling the Live ware app (connect now app) did not help,
This may not work for people who can not make phone play music or videos after headphones are inserted,
I managed to solve problem with software and by inserting headphones in the jack once every boot.
You need 2 apps; soundabout and toggleheadset2 (widget),
soundabout does not need to be registered), you will just need to set soundabout service to run on every boot, and set the 'media audio' output to speaker by default.
Every time phone is booted or rebooted insert the headphones, then play a song, remove the headphones and toggle headset to off, every time you wish to use the headphones you will need to toggle the headset widget to on manually,
i recommend to have phone calls and messages also set to vibrate in case you forget to toggle after unplugging the headphones.
I have not yet managed to get working the headset microphone,
If the headphones work in iPhone they wont work in Xperia mini pro or arcs or 2011 device , u need JVC gummy plus , they come with adaptor to sort the problem
Sent from my SK17i using xda app-developers app
There is 2 headphone and Mic standards omtp and cita and only one headphone standard, older Xperia used a differnt standard to what they use today , everyone jumped on the iPhone standard

Ok, i connectednit again the control flashes all 4 lights then after a few, fast flashes ot turns to a steady slow flash, thebdualshock connectivity next ia still greyed out, i tried via bluetooth and it doesnt see it, the cable i have is a male micro usb to femal usb.
Ive managed to.connect the dualshock and it works wired but not wireless, any tips?
Hello,
My question is quite specific, but I am currently running RR 5.8.4 (20170914) and I noticed that OTG has never worked for me (although it works when in TWRP)
I never minded so forgot about it, but I recently got hold of the Hi-Fi Plus cheaply only (£35) and wanted to try it out. As it turns out, it doesn't work and I was wondering whether;
Is this a kernel issue - can I flash an appropriate kernel to get OTG (and hopefully Hi-Fi plus support)
Or, is this just due to the Rom - should I flash a stock rom (e.g fulmics?)
Thanks!
*I have edited the Title as some of the information has changed based on my research, see my replies below*
Just as a follow up to this - I just flashed Fulmics and it still doens't work. I wonder if they only work on completely stock Rom. I will flash back to stock and update accordingly.
I also will try out OTG to see if that works.
OTG on Fulmics also doesn't work (if anyone is interested).
I hope I am doing something wrong here because it would be great to get this going

Can confirm the Hi-Fi module works on Fulmics, both internally and as an OTG device. If you're using it via OTG, I recommend USB Audio Player PRO. Their custom USB device stack works a lot better than Android's default USB audio device support. Arguably works better than using the Hi-Fi module connected directly to the phone via LG's own apps.
-edited to add: If you're using the Hi-Fi module via OTG or even connected to a PC, make sure you have headphones plugged in. For some reason, the device shuts off entirely and is not recognised unless this is the case.

Thanks. I am surprised by this - I went right back to stock (20K) and it still doesn't work for me (even with headphones plugged in). I wonder if there is something I have missed - I have no OTG support on any of the ROMs I have tried (Fulmics, RR and Stock (20K)
I thought the process would be easier - I expected to be able to listen to Spotify with the DAC - is this the case?
I have taken my phone completely back to stock, (H85020g_00_VMC_GB_OP_0703) and plugged in the Hi-Fi plus and it still doesnt work:
The "Friends" app detects the the Hi-Fi Plus
the 32 Bit DAC settings item is greyed out
I plugged in two different types of headphones
I am now at a bit of a loss as I still don't understand why OTG doesn't seem to be working either (obviously related), so the wider question is, why?
I tested out OTG on TWRP and it works, and I tested the cable I purchased on a Huawei P9 and it also works so I dont think it is the cable.
For reference, the OTG cable I have is this:
https://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B01COOQIKU/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated! Should I just return the phone and get a new one?

Does it play music through the Hi-Fi module at all when you plug in earphones? The stock ROM specific things (like the little Hi-Fi symbol in the notification bar) don't work with it attached as a USB device, it is just picked up as an Android USB audio device.
The cable might also be a factor (although yours looks like it should work); I've found the module to be picky with what will and won't work. Attempting to use the short USB C -> micro USB cable included with the Hi-Fi module (with a micro USB -> USB C OTG adapter, of course) for instance did not work for me.

Hi,
No it doesn't play music through the module, it just plays out of the speaker. If I put the headphones in the top of the phone, then it plays from there, but not from the bottom.
I think there is some issue with OTG, rather than the Hi-Fi module as it works fine when I plug it into a computer. I don't really know how I can diagnose it further. I have verified that OTG works in TWRP (and with other devices) so the cable seems fine. I'm not really sure how to proceed from there.
Thanks,
Charlie
The same thing happens to me in my g5 h860n. I have tried different firmware versions and the problem remains the same. Does anyone have an idea that I should try?
Hello! I have the same trouble. Lg G5 H850 GBR, V20v-EUR-XX, unlocked bootloader, root Magisk, stock ROM and kernel. HiFi plus recognized when direct plug into the phone (not tested with OTG-cable) , but, as was writed by Chalima, it doesn't play music through the module, it just plays out of the speaker. If I put the headphones in the top of the phone, then it plays from there, but not from the bottom. Does anybody know, this trouble of hardware, software, or a HiFi plus?
You probably checked this, but I say it anyway:
Developer options/media/USB audio routing ??
Don't disable this.....
Yes, I try with enable and disable this - not working. Also in prog Device Info HW in USB tab I see nothing.
Hi,
I used to transfer photos of my DSRL camera via USB OTG to my OPX. Some time ago this stopped working and I can't really figure why. The phone just doesn't detect the external source.
I've tried it on numerous ROMs, including mostly LOS 14, 15, 16 and some AOSP versions (most recently POSP on 9.0). So I guess it's not really a problem of a single ROM. Also TWRP does not seem to detect the OTG storage.
I've also tried other media such a various USB sticks.
The cable still works with other phones though, so this shouldn't be the cause.
Does anyone have an idea what could be the problem and how to fix it?
Help is much appreaciated! Thanks!
