For those who had problems with their Kies or Windows not recognizing their S3 or find that copying your files using the MTP device mode slow, change your USB cable. I had problems rooting my Rogers G3, copying files to my computer was impossible and when I connect my G3 to a Vista desktop computer, I get the error USB device not recognized (code 10). Then I remember I have no problems with my Win7 laptop. The only difference was the USB cable. I use the same cable on the Win7 laptop and Wahla! Everything worked beautifully!
You would think there is no difference in a regular USB cable but it does. Hope this helps those having those nightmares trying to connect their phones to Kies.
Well.... i could see maybe if your USB cable was damaged somehow that it was hindering functionality... or was just a crappy USB cable to begin with.... but USB is USB. Pin layouts haven't changed.... nor has the wiring layout for USB cables changed. Yes, we have three different classes of USB now... but as far as i'm aware, it's only the USB controllers that are different, not the cables that are used. If they changed the cables, then i don't think that there would be a possibility of pretty much universal backwards compatibility between all versions of USB. I've used my S3's micro-USB cable... my old Motorola Atrix 4G's micro-USB cable... hell, even the micro-USB cable used to charge my Logitech mouse... never had a problem with any of them. Soooo.... a damaged cable is the only thing i can think of that would have caused issues with it not recognizing the device.
I thought the same. This 'damaged' usb cable is from my Samsung Vibrant. It still works with my Vibrant. How do you explain that?
Anyway, just trying to help.
Didn't help me either unfortunately. My laptop works fine but have the problem on my desktop. Setup my parents Galaxy S III with its new cable and had the same problem. Luckily I found that I can use the USB 3.0 port as a workaround...
I have a Verizon LG G3 VS985. I just got it today, whipped the ioroot on there, etc.
So now that Google has decided they hate SD cards I've been having a ***** of a time getting backups going from my SGS3 to the new phone. I finally made a local backup, and then using a PC copied all the local backups to SD. I tried to do it to the LG G3, but when I plug it in to my PC after installing the verizon drivers, it says it will perform better plugging it into a Superspeed USB 3.0 port... and the copy would take 6 hours instead of 3 minutes. The port it is plugged into is one. It works with 2 USB 3.0 drives and my SGS3 as one... why does the G3 not recognize that?
The phone is not actually USB 3.0. The cable might be, but Android phones are known to have issues with USB 3.0 ports.
LG G3's are not USB 3 able because USB 3 cables are designed differently (well, use a different connector) then USB 2.0 spec cables.
You can tell the difference because the USB 3 cables will look more like a cable that plugs into the Note 3, it has an "extra" nub on the connector. It would be impossible to plug a USB 3 connector into a G3 unless in the last two days they have created a new USB 3 cable that only requires a USB MICRO B 2 connector. If they did, please link me because Ive been looking everywhere =)

So how come my galaxy S3 doesn't whine about connecting it to a USB 3 port and I get massively better speed than with the G3?

It should still ready fine, however, it will only read/write files at the USB 2.0 speed. There should no be any issues, I would try another micro usb cable, and or USB port. Or you could just use a micro sd card and pop all of the files on there from your PC which will probably be faster.

Because your G3 requires a higher amperage for full charge speed then your gs3.

I've tried 2 other cables now, and both USB 3.0 ports on this laptop. I'll have to try at work and see if I have USB 3.0 ports there. It's just weird, the same port and cable have no warning with other phones (my rezound and gs3 both didn't whine) or with usb 3.0 flash drives. Just this phone.

I'm not sure how that would affect data transfer speed... Charge speed, sure. Data transfer speed though...
I ended up just popping the files on the internal of the gs3 and copying them to the computer, then to the sd card while in the gs3. Then just put the sd card into the g3, where it read fine.

I just tested mine with a USB 3.0 port on my PC without any issues. I also tried a USB 2.0, and again no issues. I don't have an answer, it could be your phone, or a setting on it. What mode are you using to transfer files PTP,MTP or the LG PC Suite?

MTP. But since it's verizon it has a weird default of "connected as installer" which isn't even in the options, then I have to choose MTP.

Because your phone is not usb 3 and requires a 1 amp charger for faster charging speeds. USB 3 VERY RARELY has 1A ports, they are usually between 500-700mA which means when you plug your phone into the computer you aren't getting the full amperage needed to fully charge speed at capacity. Combine those two issues and you get the error you get about plugging the phone into a higher speed port. If you are having problems with transfer speeds being that slow, either your phone, cable or port are borked. Try reinstalling/updating your USB drivers, try new cable or check a different phone with the same USB power requirements if you want to test where the problem is but you will NEVER get USB 3 speeds because you do not have a USB 3 port on your phone, you have USB 2.0 HS

Have you tried LG's PC suite to transfer files? It works fairly well, I know its not idea, but it may help out.

Alrighty... I guess that answers that. very counter-intuitive warning message.

it is. I agree 100%.
This may sound strange, but if you look at the USB port inside the G3 you can see that it has additional connectors in it, recessed deeper in the socket, either side and on the end of a small plastic tab that goes from top to bottom in a square shape (about 2mm in size). Perhaps these are causing PCs to incorrectly detect a USB3 capable device?
USB 3.0 on LG-G3
I am running CM13 nightly 031316 on an LGG3 D-851. I have a dual ended USB 3.0 thumb drive It has a USB 3.0 standard connection on one end and a micro USB connection on the other end. Reading these posts am I understanding that the LGG3 will not recognize the thumb drive? Or will it not recognize just being connected to a USB port on a PC?
Thanks
I'm not able to get to the bootloader screen because the front usb port is not functioning on my unit. Has anyone been able to use one of the USB ports on the back to get to ADB and/or get to the bootloader? Is this a known issue with a workaround? I've done quite a bit of searching and have not turned up any solutions. Considering what is involved in shipping this back, I'd much rather figure something out. Thanks in advance for any help!
Edit: I should mention that I have used the adbon password and it does acknowledge that adb has been enabled. Just nothing seems to work on the front port. When I connect my Linux machine and run lsusb nothing shows for the unit. I have considered buying or making a USB-A to USB-A cable to connect my computer to one of the back USB ports, but I'm concerned about how these back USB ports are designed. Is it as simple as a built-in OTG cable? If so I'm probably fine. If it is more like a computer's USB port I could damage my laptop, my headunit, or both. I'd really like to hear if anyone else has had to deal with this. Unfortunately I haven't verified if the front USB will charge a phone. This is my next step.

My front USB also doesn't work. I even got mini to standard USB cable with unit, but plugging flash drive into it doesn't produce any reslt.
I also plugged extension cable to one of back USB ports and tried it (plugibg same USB flash) but it doesn't work either.
So I'm also confused.
Does that mean you are still running the stock ROM? I have been hesitant to install the custom ROM because they say you must be able to get into the bootloader even though I couldn't find a step in the process that required it.
Regarding the USB ports not working at all, you may find that you need to use a powered USB hub. I've seen reports of USB devices acting up due to the low power. This is one of the reasons I thought it might be safe to use the rear ports with my computer. (My first real test is going to be mangling a male-to-male USB cable so only the data lines are connected to see if I can get those rear USB ports to talk to the computer. I figure that way there is no chance of frying any circuits.. Each side already has its own power and I don't believe any signaling is sent via the power pins.)
On my unit (MTCB-KGL-V2.80), I have used a T-Mobile USB broadband modem successfully on the rear port, so I know rear ports are live. I did take it apart to see if something was obviously wrong with the front port, but nothing jumped out at me.
So I have a bit more information on my headunit. BTW, I have the BMW E46 model with MCU MTCB-KGL-V2.80.
On my system, both the front USB port and the rear 3G USB port are wired as device ports connected to an AU6258 USB controller (http://www.sunnyqi.com/upLoad/product/month_1403/201403162331285643.pdf). I don't remember exactly which USB ports they are connected to, but I believe the 3G port is connected to port 2 (pins 6 & 7) and the front USB port is connected to either ports 3 or 4 (pins 9 & 10 or 11 & 12 respectively). Nothing is connected to port 1 or to the upstream port. The other rear USB port is wired directly to the MTC_RK3188 board.
All three ports are wired with only four pins, so I'm concerned that none of them could work with the computer. The USB controller doesn't have USB ID pins, so does that mean that the 4 downstream ports are OTG and the upstream port is for a computer? Unfortunately I don't know the hardware side.

No I flashed Malaysk ROM from GPS SD card. No problems. Just follow instruction. I had luck that I didn't need to recover from USB.
Did you tried with USB powered hub? I don't have one to try it myself.

Hello, I've just purchased HTC 10 from T-mobile in Poland. I installed HTC Sync Manager, but every time I connect the device to usb 3.0 port, my Windows 10 file explorer hangs and I can not use the device (nor can I do it through Sync Manager.) I tried downloading only usb drivers and selecting the option to fix corrupt files, but it didn't help either. Weird thing is, that there is no problem when using usb 2 port. Any ideas on how to fix it?
PS I've never had any problems with using the usb 3.0 port with my LG G3
I had this issue when using None Intel USB 3.0 ports at the front of my PC. Do you have any intel USB 3.0 or USB 3.0 at the back of the PC you could try and see if it works?
According to what I I have read, if you are wanting to activate USB 3 mode in the HTC 10, what they don't tell you is that it is actually USB 3.1, and you must have USB 3.1 ports on your PC to connect to, otherwise it will only connect at USB 2 performance even if you plug it into USB 3 on your PC. You can't enable the USB 3 mode on the HTC 10 unless it senses being connected to a USB 3.1 port. I speculate that is why the cable HTC ships with the HTC 10 is actually a USB 2 cable with a USB C (3.1) connector on it. I was rather disappointed to learn this. I have USB 3 on my PC, but not USB 3.1, so I can't use the USB 3 mode on my HTC 10. My prior Galaxy S5 had a micro USB 3 connector and (before it eventually failed to work) I was able to transfer files an appreciable amount faster via USB 3 between it and my PC.

Exactly as you said, I tried disconnecting usb 3.0 ports at the front (I have zalman z9 u3) and using the ones directly from mobo and it worked. Any idea why is that?

My best guess is front USB ports don't have enough power to push data to the htc 10
Or the front USB ports none Intel are bugged when using this device.
When I plug phone via USB into PC running Windows 11 the phone will only charge.I don't get any options on the phone for file transfer and the PC doesn't detect it. Any tips. It's usually pretty straightforward.
maybe a driver problem?
It came down to the cables I was using.
The Huawei cable I use for the 65W charger didn't work. The Huawei cable for the 15W Wireless Charger didn't work. Found another cable in my cupboard (don't know what or where it comes from) but it now works and I get the options for transfer on the Fold and it shows up in PC's file manager.

Thanks for replying. It was a cable problem.Doesn't seem to like Huawei cables.Very strange.
So the Huawei cable ends are Purple and Orange in colour. Both cables don't work for transfer but only charge when plugging into your PC. The cable end which is White works fine.
Just in case someone else runs into this problem since the phone doesn't come with a charger and cable and you might use your Huawei cables and find you can't connect to your PC to transfer files but only charge.
That isn't new. Samsung had before issue where if you used non Samsung cable the Samsung phone will nag about port was wet, when it wasn't. But now it seems Samsung finally got rid of that limit so charging with any USB C works now. But it seems you need to use original cable for phone when it comes to transfer of files.
