Hi,
Apparently I can not post on the appropriate thread, so I'll have to create a new thread here.
I'm using the latest CM v7.0.3 rom and the "connect to pc" menu is missing. No "mount as harddisk", no "charge only". I can not access my SD card from the pc at all. Am I missing something? Reboot and/or connecting and disconnecting my device multiple times to different PCs didn't help either.
Thanks for any help,

Umm, when you connect your phone via usb to the pc, the usb icon and usb connected msg should popup, slide down the status bar, tap the usb connected notification and then pick turn on usb storage , the phone is already charging when connected to usb so you don't get that charge only option
Well yes, that's what it should be like - but exactly that notification is missing. It's been there in previous versions of CM/HTC Sense, but I don't get that pop-up in the latest CM703...
usb / connect to pc menu missing
i have the same problem on my legend with CM710 stable...
i remember this option was there (and a menu popped up when you plugged it in) but now it is not there anymore and nothing happens when i plug it in (windows: usb dev not recognized, ubuntu doesnt even recognize any usb device)... although the phone continues to charge...
i suspect that i might have done a factory reset or something after which this problem started... (or i may have disassembled the phone to replace the touchscreen/lcd... but has been carefully reassembled and everything else works fine..)
even tried to recover to old backups, flashing the rom again but nothing happens, still no connect to pc menu in settings nor does pluggin it in works...
gonna try to flash a stock froyo rom and see what happens..
if i am missing anything then please let me know...

another problem occurred.
I flash the 11.1 nightly on my defy,(As flunk03 said, wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing), it works very well, but an USB problem comes out, when I plug the usb cable to microUSB port, nothing happened, the phone do not show the usb connection, the computer do not "ding", either. Then I reboot the phone, it connects to the computer and shows me charging.
PS, after flash the ninghtly, I uninstall the MOTOROLA PORTAL, does it relate with the problem? who can help?
thx in advanced.
So it's not the cable or ports, try go to Device Manager from ur computer and see if you can see any unrecognized device? If you do, just download the Motorola usb drivers and install it ...

thank you, but my pc do not react anything, and it happens randomly, reboot, then it is ok. i do not know why? and when i plug usb cable to the charger, the phone shows it is charging, so i think it is the ROM problem or something.
I have a similar problem with the MS2Ginger 2.0 Lite:
After selecting USB Mass-Storage Mode in the top menu the phone says "preparing SD card.." and then shows "MTP: no SD card found" or sth - but there's clearly a SD card in the device and it's accessible, too -> i can browse through the gallery and everything..
No Mass Storage for me it seems...anybody got a solution to this?
So I'm trying to unlock the bootloader so I can install some nice roms.
How ever when I try to install the update RUU HTC advices me to install nothing happens.
I get to "Connect your phone to the computer using the USB cable that came with your phone. Wait a moment for your computer to identify your phone, this may take a few minutes.
If your computer cannot find your phone, you may need to install HTC Sync. You can download HTC Sync here.
"
How ever the phone never gets recognized so running the RUU causes it to load and then close before giving me any options.
Hboot version is 0.90.0000 software version is 2.13.351.1
I've looked all over XDA and google for answers and couldn't find anything that worked.
Is there any other way to flash the RUU ? Fastboot maybe? ( I tried just running the RUU whilst in fastboot usb and it RUU still loads and then closes)
Oh yeah, trying to do all this on Win7 x64
*edit* Running the phone in usb storage mode allowed it to run, how ever thus far it does not seem to be working. Got an error message saying a directory was full. It's now" Veryifing information on your pda phone" been doing it a while though.
First:
Go into Settings, then choose Connect to PC.
Make sure "Ask Me" has a checkmark on it.
Second:
In the settings choose Applications, then Development and make sure USB debugging is checked off also.
When you connect the USB cable to the computer now do you get a message on your phone?
You should have three chooses for USB type; charge only, HTC Synch and Disk Drive.
If you are not getting this option then your computer is not connecting to the phone via USB. Either bad usb cable, bad usb port, or something wrong with the phone.
EDIT
Sorry just saw your edit. disregard my comment.

I get all these options, I can access the disk drive if I choose that option, if I choose sync that works etc.
Only this RUU that gives me problems
*EDIT* WOOO! found a work around, run RUU with storage mode on, then switch back to charge only after accepting disclaimer.
*Edit again* and of course, just as things seem to be going well the installer crashes, now the phone is stuck on some silver HTC logo.
It crashes as soon as it tells the phone to reboot to bootloader.
Bumping this instead of making a new thread.
Still having this issue if anyone can help.
Hi all, how are you?
I have a Galaxy Nexus unrooted stock with Android 4.3 (JWR66V).
After the update to 4.3, my device has stopped working in MTP/PTP mode.
I mean, When I connect my phone to my Notebook USB port, thus nothing happens on my notebook or my phone.
When my phone is connected to my notebook the notification dialog to select between MTP/PTP modes doesn`t show up anymore in the phone (it only says that is charging).
I have tried to re-install the drivers on my notebook, and It didn't fix this issue.
I have also tried to the a factory reset on my phone, and It did't fix the issue either.
Besides, I tried also to connect the phone with a different USB cable and it didn't fix the issue either.
Please, May someone help me?
Thanks in advance
Please, May someone help me?
I have no idea of what is going on and why USB stopped working after 4.3 update?
How do I troubleshoot this issue?any clues?
I figure out that on Android 4.3 I have ti go to Settings->Storage->Usb Computer Connection and manually select the connection mode...
(I am not sure Why the notification pop up doesn't show anymore on the phone when I connect it to the PC using the USB cable)

You are totally right... dont know the stu... option doesnt appears clear. On my S3 I did the same, but the option wasnt visible... you must click over USB (even it appearing as dimmed) then a USB CONNECTION (or something like) appears you must click over and then a screen with MPT option will be available... For godsake WHY such thing isnt available on settings or on shortcut menu by default is beyond my understanding.
Okay so I want to manually update to 4.4 (I have the normal 4.2.2 for this model). So first I connect my phone to my laptop to create a backup just in case something goes wrong. And SURPRISE! USB Device Not Recognized. Tried changing the port, the wire, restarting the phone, the laptop, no change. The USB notification is also not showing on the phone, it just sees it as regular charging.
I never had this problem before... I even used USB debugging several times. I thought maybe somehow the settings changed and it's no longer set to MTP. So I go to my phone's settings and can't find the USB settings to check. Looked it up online, they are supposed to be under storage when I press the menu button. I press it and nothing happens, and the USB connection settings are nowhere to be found.
Any ideas?
Have you tried to install your phone's USB driver in your computer?

1. Turn on USB debugging
2. Upgrade to the newest version of Kies
3. Ensure it connects as MTP [media device] not PTP [camera]
Hello everyone,
when I tried to connect my Galaxy S4 Mini (LTE i9195, Stock KitKat, rooted) via USB to my computer today, nothing happend. I checked the drivers, they are all installed. But I can connect another S4 Mini (LTE) without any problems.
I noticed that my S4 Mini does not show the notification you usually get when you connect the phone via USB (the one where you can choose Camera or MTP) anymore. The other one, which works perfect, shows this notification in the notification bar. I am using the original Samsung cable, which was shipped with the phone.
Note: My phone still charges when I connect it to the PC but does not recognise the PC connection
My phone is rooted and I used an Autostart/Reciever Toggle program yesterday - is it possible that I accidentally deactivated a necessary service?
What I tried so far:
- Google (only found solutions for "PC doesnt recognise phone" and not vice versa)
- Reboot
- DalvikCache Reset
- Cache Reset
- turn on/off USB Debugging
- use different cable
- use different usb ports
- use the code *#8080# to change MTP (it was already set to MTP...)
#Edit: It is just as in this thread (but S4 Mini instead of S4):

Thanks for your answer, but I can't find what you mean I have seen a post where it says that I need to go to Settings -> Storage and hit the three dots there, but on my Samsung there are no 3 dots AND nothing happens when I press the menu button either... See: random-host.com/blogs/enable-media-device-mtp-usb-mode-android-44-kitkat-and-50-lollipop
Thanks!
(Okay I got it working now.)
After I tried everything I could imagine, I decided to Flash the Stock Rom again. But before I was going to flash the new ROM I did a nandroid backup with CWM of my current ROM + everything. After Full Wiping I decided to restore the backup I just did (the ROM is still downloading hehe...) and voila it works again! Why? I have no clue...
So just backup -> full wipe -> restore backup -> worked!
#Edit: Stopped working agin... But the computer successfully connected to the phone, installed the drivers and displayed the phone in the explorer. Note: this time (when it actually worked after the restore) it showed the MTP connection in the statusbar! But now it disappeard again and is not showing up anymore...
Have u enable developer option ?? Some phones needs to enable developer optiom to recognise the phone in pc.. to enable this go to setting /about phone n click in build number more than 7 times . And then go to developer optiongn then click in USB Debugging . Then ur pc will recognise the phone.. hope this help u !!
Thanks for your reply!
As stated in my thread I already enabled/disabled and reenabled USB Debugging, and USB Debugging requires Developer Options.
But thanks for trying to help!!
Is it possible that my USB port is broken? A new one only costs 5€ so I think I'll give it a try...
Hi ! Ive the same problem... Ive you try to change your Kernel ?
I'm currently running on CM 12 and it works. However, if the pc does not recognise the phone, try rebooting your computer and your phone (that often actually works).
Mh... Try to reboot in recovery and make a wipe data / factory reset.
Any new ideas how to resolve this issue?
Did all of the above plus factory reset, tried different drivers and changed phone's charging port.
Two other phones (a Samsung and a Sony) connect to this PC just fine.
Thanks in advance
LE: In download mode the PC sees it in Odin. I tried SilviuMik's different kernel variants (the phone is stock KitKat), but nothing happens. I had no problems with it connecting to PC until about 2-3 weeks ago.
