Phone charges fine but not seen by computer - X 2014 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a Verizon MOTO X 2014 32GB working almost fine, only that it doesn't get recognised when plugged into a computer. No sound, nothing except that it somehow still charges either plugged into a charger or a computer via USB but never gets recognised like MTP or PTP or whatever, just charging only. I've searched everywhere to see if anyone else has seen this issue before and if there's a fix for it before posting this here. Any suggestions would be welcome.
Thanks.

Did you try tapping the 'Charging only' displayed in a notification when you connect USB cable to PC(if you're running MM). If its not the case then maybe try replacing your Data Cable, as it may also be the culprit

Running Lollipop 5.1 and I've tried everything that can be done from any setting on the phone. I have also tried several USB cables with no luck yet. Thanks.

Have you tried changing it to MTP under developer options?

Under developer options,

Please where exactly is this setting located in Developer Options? I can't find anything related to it in mine. Thanks.

Just realized you were running v5.1
Try this:
To enable USB file transfer go to “Settings” > “Storage” > Tap on the three vertical dots in the top-right corner of your screen > “USB computer connection” > Tick the box next to “Media device (MTP)

Help please! Vario III not connecting after hard reset.

Hi there, I could really use some help.
I had to reset my T Mobile Vario III and now when I try and sync it up to my pc, it can't even connect.
I get a "found new hardware" wizard and if I run that, I get this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",

"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I can't see what the problem is as surely a hard reset takes it back to "just out of the box" condition? Therefore, I should be able to sync it up again as I did when I bought it......
......shouldn't I?
Any help most gratefully received.
BUMP
Anyone?
C'mon folks, I'm in pain here.
Just when I'd got it running nicely with some super progs and apps courtesy of my xda buddies, I did a hard reset for a particular reason and now I'm in PDA-limbo.
Everything else is working as per a regular hard reset, BTW.
So what's the prob? Do I need to download drivers or what?
The only thing I can think of is that the RNDIS driver on the PC has become corrupt or is missing.
All I can suggest is that you uninstall activesync from your PC, restart it and then re-install it if not with the very latest version which should be on the CD that came with your device. Restart your PC again and then and only then connect your VIII and see if the PC picks it up this time.
Good Luck and let us know your progress

Thanks Stinkey, I'll try that when I get home (in the queue at the bank at the mo), hopefully it'll sort it out.
Either that or plug your sync cable into a different USB port, failing that (on yor PC whilst phone connected) go to Control panel, System, Hardware, Device manager and under Network adapters, uninstall the Windows Mobile-based device, then after that, unplug your phone then re-connect it. Try a PC restart if it does not connect after driver install.
Hope that works.
Thanks for the advice gents but sadly it's been to no avail.
Can anyone suggest a next approach?
BUMP.
Anybody able to help?
The fact that your PC is seeing your mobile as a different unit after a hard reset is a puzzle!
Are you using orig firmware or a cooked ROM?
Original.
Thinking about it, the problem didn't occur immediately after the reset.
I had it connected and synced up, then something happened - I can't remember what, either the pc timed out and went to standby or "the Mrs" had to log on to her side of the pc - and something got pi$$ed off along the line, hence these problems.
I'm thinking more that the pc is at fault somehow 'cos the Vario is working perfectly otherwise.
Then try a system restore to before the problem happened.
I have seen on other threads that one guy had a faulty usb cable and another had this problem when going thru a USB hub instead of direct to the PC.
Maybe the USB port you are using cannot supply enough current. The Kaiser starts to charge as soon as it connects and can drop out the USB port if it can't support it and this may start to happen at a later date if the USB port power supply circuit dies.

QDL Mode Brick

Hi Guys,
Long story short, I had an HTC Desire C, but somehow it got stuck in a hard brick (QDL/QHSUSB_DLOAD)... so I decided to look on ebay and find a phone with a broken screen to swap out the boards (since I still had a functional screen). I won an auction for two HTC Desire C's with broken screens/cases, but one of them was also stuck in this QDL Brick. So now I have two HTC Desire C's stuck in QDL Download Mode and one that works. So while I've solved the problem (I have one phone that works), before I consign the other two phones to silicon heaven, I was wondering if anyone has had any success getting out of this kind of brick? I did a lot of google-type research and the furthest I had gone was to connect the phone to QPST... which is moot because I have no files to upload to it.
*edit* I connected the good phone to QPST... but tbh I don't have a lot of experience with it and so yah... fiddling but no success.
In case I am not clear and for those of you unfamiliar with what I mean by QDL brick, essentially the phone does not power on (no matter what kind of button combination, fully charged, plugged in, 30 seconds, etc) and when connected by USB is recognised as a Qualcomm device in QDL Download mode. Here is an lsusb printout from Linux of the phone when connected.
Bus 003 Device 003: ID 05c6:9008 Qualcomm, Inc. Gobi Wireless Modem (QDL mode)

And here is a picture of what I get in QPST when I connect one of them to my computer.

If anyone has any suggestions, even if to say that the phones are dead bricks, please let me know. I imagine to fix this using QPST I need files (google qpst QHSUSB_DLOAD, I can't post links since I am a new account), but I have been unable to figure anything out... The other solution I thought was to use backup/restore functions in QPST to transfer good configurations from the working phone to those bricked... but I don't know if this would work and I have not been able to connect the good phone to QPST.
Thanks.

Disable Allow Access to Phone Data

Is there a way to disable this or permanently allow access? I have no idea why but after my last factory reset it didn't pop up so I know it's possible.

Anyone?
Is it actually connected to a PC when these "normal" pop ups occur?
If not, I suspect a dirty USB Type-C port.
Any luck? I also want these prompts to remain hidden. I dont need to be notifed about this every time I connect my device to my vehicle to charge.
For me when I do "Cancel Autorisation for Debug USB" in Developper Settings, there is an additional Pop up that appear, saying to Remeber the answer for this PC, and always an option to tick to remeber for this PC, and some serial number related to my PC appear.
Of course I select all those, and always for this PC, it is supposed to remember my answer, but it doesnt! everytime I need to connect to my PC need to allow that ****!!
On my S7e I need to allows & remember answer for this PC aand it works like a charm, it never pop up again and connection between Phone and PC is working as should.
I read around that Root should be present for some kind of Auto Allow, but could not find any modules or anything...
If someone know how to accomplish that with Root, thx in advance.

Can you try disabling com.sec.usbsettings with ADB? I believe that app is what controls the pop up, but it might break other things. Honestly this was a huge f up by samsung. What were they thinking? Why would we want a pop up message every time we plug our phone into our vehicle to charge it or to use android auto?

unfortunaly I tried looking for "com.sec.usbsettings" to disable it with ADB, but not avalable on my phone.
I had hope with Firefds Kits Module & Xposed, but dont seems to be working, that was the kind of solution I was looking for. Sure should some kind of trick like that around.
I have this issue too. Honestly the only solution seems to be to not plug your device into any kind of computer to charge. If the issue is happening when you plug your device into your vehicle to use android auto, then you would have to use wireless android auto and set your USB behavior to disable file transfer which will prevent it from attempting to connect to the head unit computer which causes the stupid message. Kind of a dumb design oversight to have to prompt the user with no way to turn it off but what did you expect? These are the same people who came up with all this other forced system bloatware like device care.

V40 not working with AFT on MacBook Pro

I just got an LG V40 on T-Mobile. I have a 2015 MacBook Pro on Mojave that i had no problem using Android File Transfer with my Note8 or my LG G7. I cannot seem to get my V40 to connect to the MacBook Pro to transfer data via USB. Is there a good free alternative to Android File Transfer, or does anybody know the right way to get them to connect. I've tried all the troubleshooting steps on the AFT site that I've found.
SHAREit seems to work pretty well. I don't have any Apple products but I'm able to transfer files with coworkers that do.

via USB?
Android File Transfer is working just fine for me. I also have the 2015 MB Pro 13", on Mojave 10.41.1.
Was also functioning fine on my previous phone, an LG G6.
Have you tried uninstalling, then reinstalling AFT?
Does your V40 connect fine to a Windows PC?
Tried different USB ports or cables?

I've tried several different cables. It connects just fine to my surface book. I've uninstalled/reinstalled AFT multiple times. Installed the LG Driver. Wiped the phone. The computer will see the phone just not as a drive. It's like AFT is the only thing that can't see it

What settings do you have checked in developer mode? I've tried with Debugging on and off, MTP and PTP. I keep getting this feeling that i'm missing something.

I actually forgot to even activate developer mode when I first got the phone a few weeks ago, so all settings there are untouched

only on Acer AN515-43 that does not.
I’ve already spoken with Acer support, but they don’t know what’s going on.

Did you reinstalled USB Drives and install latest one.
otherwise try to use another PC.
when it's happening to me always try another PC and works.
I solved my USB connections problem by using Stock Windows 10 without any mod or custom builds...
Good luck with it

I tried with other cables on a Lenovo notebook, and it worked normally, both with the original cable and with a common type-c cable.

I would try then;
1. Check for updated drivers from Windows Update
2. If not, try updating drivers with snappy tool;
https://sdi-tool.org/download/ (sdi lite)
3. If still not, backup ur personal laptop data and clean install win10
I tried these three options, but I still have the same problem.
