Rog Phone 3 USB Cable Help - ASUS ROG Phone 3 Questions & Answers

So I got my Rog 3 China edition, but the usb cable it came with is a type c to type c. My laptop doesn't have the socket for type c, Al how do I connect my Rog 3 to my laptop? I was able to use my Huawei cable for data transfer , however, for fastboot mode the Huawei cable wouldn't work, so what usb cable so I need or is there any way I can connect the type c to type c cable that originally came with the phone to my laptop?

Good mate, any cable pulls you, the only thing that for the computer to recognize your mobile through ADB you have to do it through the side charging port, not the one below.

Hi, basically the laptop recognised the huawei USB cable I used for the rog 3 when I used the bottom port and media transfer mode was activated
However, the huawei USB cable didn't work on the side port when I tried to do fastboot,
So the question is, what alternative cable can I use as my laptop does not have a type c slot/output.. And the USB which came with the rog 3 has type c on one end and type c on the other end? I've ordered a type c to type A female cable, I've attached a photo of it, do you think that'll work if I plug the ROG 3 type c cable on it and insert that into the laptop?

sorry for a bad english
Unfortunately OTG Doesn't work on Razr I

Actually, you can, but not in the usual form (just an OTG cable). You'll need to adapt an OTG cable to receive the power from a USB port like your computer or the wall outlet, so you'd have a usb cable Y.
.....................-----> device (female usb)
outlet (usb) ---|
..................... ----> otg cable to cellphone (mini usb)
You can find tutorials on the internet on how to do this. You'll need to solder the 5v+ and 5v- cables to make a bridge and that's all.
I've built an Otg cable, but still not able of getting things working. No usb is shown.

Why is everyone buying a cable?

According to Google, we will be getting these in the box:
USB Type-C 15W (5V/3A) charger
USB Type-C to Type-C cable
So I was wondering why is everybody ordering USB C to USB A cables. Doesn't the MicroUSB cable I already have support data transfer?
Thanks.
MicroUSB is not Type C

mainly for usage between pc and phone communication, since most PC don't have USB c port yet I presume.

No need for a new cable http://www.ebay.com/itm/USB-3-1-Typ...Tablet-/401000332375?var=&hash=item5d5d7b7c57
Great delivery date of up to Dec 3rd!
I will be getting a cable too, I would loose that adapter very quickly.
And of course the reason I want the cable is for charging the phone, my external battery pack only has TypeA sockets on it.

Becuase I like spares and I need to replace all of my micro USB cables with Type-C ones.
I got USB A to USB C cables for my computer and my existing car chargers.

The Type C to Type C can't be used for data transfer unless you've got an adapter or the new macbook which supports the type c connection.
I'm currently on the look out for a cable that is USB to Type C that has the 3.1 speed and can also be used for data transfer.

Have you tried to connect the 5X to your computer? Has your computer recognised the phone? I tried to do this on my mac using a cheap USB A to Type C cable and it didn't work. Kept saying the phone was locked.

Yes, works fine on my windows 10 machine with the A to C cable that Google sells. Already loaded tones into the 5X.

I've read the USB defaults to "charge only" mode, you might need to switch that in the settings first.
For now I will just be transferring my files wirelessly but I might buy an adapter or type C to type A cable eventually if I desire slightly faster transfers or USB charging.

The phone includes USB Type-C which isn't the same as MicroUSB. You can't use your MicroUSB cords because they won't connect to the phone.
I've picked up a couple cables from eBay and have had to return them. They won't even go in the charging port and I am not going to force them in.
So as of right now, I'm stuck with adapters. At least they work.

Thanks!!!! Super helpful, I was struggling with this for a while. Kept thinking it was the cable that was not compatible to do this.

The Nexus 5X does not support USB 3.1, it will be using 2.0, so don't worry about cable spec.
I successfully connected my 5x to my early 2011 macbook pro and was able to unlock the bootloader install twrp and move files with android file transfer.

Did you have any problems initially when connecting your phone to your macbook? I have a macbook pro retina from 2013/2014 and it freezes every time I connect my phone to it. I've tried the Spigen cable I have with my windows work computer and it worked just fine, but every time I plug into my macbook, I have to reboot because it freezes.

Nothing that I was able to notice seemed to take it like any other Micro USB and my nexus 5, except android file transfer didn't launch itself when I connected it like it does with my nexus 5.

Windows 10 USB Could Not Recognize Device Error

I bought the Tronsmart Data Cables USB-C to USB-A knowing the cable that came with the box was only a charging cable. But still my computer won't recognize my Mi 5 64Gb. Any thoughts on this? Thanks in advance.
P.S. I have also installed the MI PC Suite. Still failing.

MiSuite is useless for now, as this thing doesn't support Android 6.
Just connect the phone with a cable to the Computer. I use the Xiaomi Mi4c cable, the original mi 5 is still in the box but both work to transfer data!
All you have to do is:
-Connect the phone to the pc with Usb C to A
-Change the connection mode from "Use USB for Charging only" to "Use USB for Transfer files (MTP)"
Uh and could you please explain the difference between a USB C to USB A charging cable and a USB C to USB A data-transfer cable? The more details you add the better. I am specially curious about the wires inside of the cable, like the difference between a charging and data cable, by the means of wire connection. (I have never heard of such a thing.)
I have tried doing that but it seems Windows is not installing the drivers for Mi 5 thus getting a "device could not be recognized.
Working great now. Had to change USB ports and used the ones at the rear of my desktop. Thanks!

mine has the same problem with you..
when connected Mi 5 to PC, Mi 5 is not displaying "Charging Only" or "MTP" Option. My PC (Win 7) says "Device is not Recognized".
I've tried uninstalling Mi PC Suite and another ADB program, and changing usb port, the problem is stills..
How do you fix it?
I had the same problem. But changing to a different USB-port on my computer solved it. Check if you have any native USB3 ports on your mobo.
I had the same issue on my Win8 computer (usb2 plugs only) . But it connected perfect on my wife's win7 computer (usb3 plugs)
I finished getting it connected by validating USB debug and waiting very long for driver installation.
USB3 versus USB2 , why not.
Its Not USB2 vs USB3 as I am getting it connected on my Laptop with only USB2 ports but Can't connect on my PC with USB2/USB3 ports while my S7 connects perfectly. I dunno why this is happening and still seeking solution. PTP mode and USB tethering mode works fine though. Just MTP mode connection gets the Yellow triangle and device listing under other devices in my windows device manager.
Install the software driver of the pc and connect as mtp
Dont work anything
I change it to MTP but it comes back by itself to charging mode wtf
Go to device manager after connecting usb to phone
In portable devices, you will find your device along with a caution sign
Double click on your device
Go to driver tab
Then click on update driver
Then click on "Browse my computer..."
Then click on "Let me pick..."
Select MTP USB Device
Install this driver and then your phone will be detected by your computer
(1) Go to C:\Windows\INF
(2) Type "wpdmtp.inf" in search bar provided to the right of the address bar in Windows 10.
(3) Once you found it, just right click on it and select install. It will take a very few seconds.
(4) Connect your device to the pc.

Magisk module will fix it
I'd rather not root the phone.
will lose wedevine level...
Hey !
For me, using the Dualshock 4 via Bluetooth is impossible, it lags and duplicate commands, but it actually works perfectly via OTG
how?
Plugged it in my MI 9 and nothing happens.
I'm using original MI 9 charger cable and and otg micro usb adapter like this.
no reaction at all.
even tried a usb-c to hdmi hub (has hdmi, USB port and PD). nothing.

Is the OTG working on other devices?
I'm using a Samsung one (see attachments), it's the one included in the Galaxy S10 box, a friend gave it to me because he had one already, you can find it here
I just plug the controller inside the USB and then plug the OTG in the phone using the Type C
I think you are actually plugging the phone into the controller because the OTG you sent me is a Micro USB one, so you might be plugging your phone into the OTG that you actually plug into the controller
I see but also tried one of these:
RON 26.05 32%OFF | Kebidu Type-C Female Adapter Usb Type-C Hub Adapter 3-in-1 USB C hub to HDMI USB3.0 with Charging Converter
https://s.click.aliexpress.com/e/2dG8IbBa
Which I'm essence is the same as otg using the hub and still nothing
unfortunately xiaomi screwed us again.
although android 10 comes with dualshock 4 support, it's nowhere to be seen in miui11
so here's the deal, both of my Dualshock 4 controllers are v1.
Borowed a V2 from a friend, no lag whatsoever. not sure, but I suspect a driver issue on the phone side with v1
Rooted mi9 ps4 controller
Hello, is it possible to root a Xiaomi mi9 and use ps4 controller?

Asus mobile dock set up help

I recently got a used Asus mobile desktop dock ZS600KLD and I am trying to hook it up with my Asus ROG Strix Hero 3 laptop. I only got a micro usb B cable to hook it up with. That is for data and it works. But to get the display mirrored on my laptop what cable should I buy? I see a USB C to displayport cable but I need a displayport to USB C?? I can't find one that is omnidirectional, at least one that says it goes both ways. The HDMI to HDMi doesn't work, should it? Thanks
