Hey yall, just wondering if anybody knows what the MtpAppGB.apk does? My phone doesn't give the option to connect to my pc anymore. I must have removed app that connects the phone-pc accidentily! Any ideas?
It's the Media Transfer Protocol driver. Your Play connects with PC Companion only in MTP mode, so if you remove the driver, it won't connect. Still, you can connect it as a USB flash device.

When I connect my tp2 to my windows 7 pc it says, Generic RNDIS Driver not found.
i would like to sync my device with outlook. bluetooth works, but USB is faster.
Can somebody help me??
The first time I connected it used windows update to find the drivers it needed. Make sure you are connected to the net. Download (if update has not done it for you) and run windows mobile device center.
All this happened automatically the first time I connected.
Is there a place to download these drivers?
It prevents me from tethering.
Obviously if I need to tether, I have no internet connection to download the driver. (Catch 22)
I had this issue on my Titan, and I used to keep the drivers on the SD card. I could install from there and be online.

I was having the same problem on my XP until I installed Active Sync.
i got an S3.. and my computer has xp pro. i had to restore my computer recently from a saved image of my system. before i restored my computer, i was able to connect my S3 to it via USB with no problem. but after i restored it, i'm unable to.
i downloaded and installed the MTP driver, which got my computer to recognize my phone before i restore it. but now its not working and i dont see it listed in Device Manager. whats weird is that when i connect my S3 to my computer, the phone doesnt give any notifications that the phone is connected to USB like it used to before. and it also doesnt give me the 2 options of connecting by either MTP or Camera. all it does is charge my phone. how do i fix this?

Try a different USB cable. I had a similar problem and using another cable fixed it for me.

hi bigtom.. i tried that and it doesnt work. and like i said before, when i connect my phone to the laptop, all it does is charge the phone.. the phone doenst give me a notification that its being connected via USB. and i think its important to get this notification.
Make sure that USB Debugging is ticked.
Settings>Developer Options> USB Debugging.

You also might get the pdanet usb driver and install that in your PC in order to get the usb to recognize an internet access via USB.
You should be able to download the USB driver from PDANet's website.
Just a "maybe" thought. Hope it helps!

Install kies if that doesn't do it then reflash the ROM
Im having problems trying to transfer files from my pc to my tab. my pc wont recognise the tab as an MTP device, but in the usb setting it is checked to connect as MTP. my cable is fine and the usb on my computer is fine, the pc does "see" the tab because it comes up as a connected camera but refuses to connect as media device. anyone know what i should do ?
In lieu of a better answer: Kies air. It sucks but it works and I am unaware of other alternatives.

Are you using a custom ROM? I read that it has been a problem in some builds but is now fixed, so if you are using a CM11 ROM make sure you update it.

How I like detailed errors descriptions...
What type of connection you use ?
Media transfer or storage ?
What is your comp running ?
Windows ? Which one ?
Linux ?
Did you install usb drivers ?
actually mine has USB transfer problems in whatever mode i connect it.
all of them are veeeery slow, often it hangs forever.
transfers over wifi is kinda the only way here
on win7 with the stock usb cable.
I recently acquired a Sony Xperia C6506 (ZL LTE). Before I start playing around with this phone, i need to offload some photos. I'm trying to connect the phone to my laptop running Windows 7 via the USB. My system does not recognize the phone. I'm assuming it's because I don't have the correct driver on my windows system . (I've also tried "PC Companion but had no luck there either). I searched the Sony web site for a driver but did not see a specific one for the C6506. Does anyone know where I can find the correct driver for the USB on Windows 7? Or does anyone have any other ideas why this might not be working?
Thanks
I have the same phone and windows 7 recoginzed it and installed the driver by itself. Didn't remember if it downloaded it or found it from the system. Perhaps you can try the PC companion software from Sony.

Thanks for the reply - I've loaded PC Companion and in step two, it never recognizes the device.

What happens when you connect the phone to your PC? Anything? Do you see any messages popping up? Any errors? Do you see it in device manager? Also, do you see any messages on your phone when you plug it in? What USB connection mode is set in your phone's settings? In general, MTP should be the most universal method.
I have the same phone, and it is recognized perfectly by Windows 7 (at work) and Windows 8.1 (at home). When you install Sony PC Companion, it includes the proper drivers, so you don't need to do anything extra (you do need additional drivers for flash mode and ADB, but that's a different topic). I would suggest trying another PC, to see if it makes any difference. If it still doesn't work, it might be something with your phone...
As an alternative, you can use a WiFi connection to access your files on the phone. I often use either ES File Explorer or Software Data Cable - they both provide an FTP service that you can connect to from your PC over WiFi.
Have you tried with another cable? My Xperia is recognized perfectly out-of-the-box on Windows 7, 8.1 and 10, as soon as I connect it, PC starts to search and download drivers, no PC Companion installed nor Flashtool drivers. :/

Yeah, that would be a good option to start, forgot to mention it. I've seen bad USB cables quite a few times, more often than I'd expect...
Thanks again for the quick replies and the suggestions cause they worked - it was the cable. The cable I was using was capable of charging the phone but did not allow Windows to recognize it. I used a different cable and it worked fine. Tharnks again. Now the fun begins changing the phone into a media playing device. If you have any suggestions on this I'm all ears.
Thanks
