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...

For USB Storage mode:
1. Disconnect
2. Settings->Wireless and network->USB utilities
3. Click button: Connect storage to PC
4. Plug in USB Cable
I hope it helps.

Do you mean adb connection or usb mass storage one?
I don't know whether you've checked this yet, but try this:
if you mean the adb, on the home screen, press: menu>setting>applications>development>check on usb debugging
if it is usb storage, refer to what mayerkemp said
or if you can see usb logo on notification bar, slide it down and tap connect storage to pc
Thanks guys,
Problem is that when I click on connect storage it either says "connect the cable to use mass storage" or if the cable is connected it says "USB is connected. Remove the cable."
Any thoughts?
Hi guy's, so I've reinstalled a backed up rom and it's fine now.
Just always check development mode on application setting, then u can change to usb storage with tap usb connected from expanded status bar, that's what I do on DXLM3
Sorry for my bad english
hi, i got this sgn from a friend with a broken screen, and ive now replaced the screen and the phone turns on and boots up no problem. but when i plug it in to my puter, it says usb device not recognized, one ot the usb devices attached.... as well in settings the wifi on/off toggle starts greyed out, if i go into the wifi setup, i can push the toggle and it says turning on wifi, but then after about 20 seconds or so, it just flicks the toggle back to off. bluetooth if i press the toggle, it instantly flicks back to off, and wont turn/stay on. and the last thing i have noticed that is not right, is when i try to go into the camera, it just f/c's and says gallery has has stopped, yet if i go into the gallery, it comes up. but f/c's if i try to access the camera.. i am thinking its probably a hardware issue, just was wondering if anyone might be able to give me any extra insight or suggestions, thanks in advance.
edit: oh, and the phone charges through the usb port, which i find weird that the puter wont recognize it...

yeah, ive got a usb jig to boot it into odin download mode, but i think i tried it but the computer still didnt recognize it, ill try it again and let you nkow what happens.. also, i have another working sgn here, and i switched out the boards, cause the usb port is not on the mainboard, it is connected by a flex ribbon (thinking it may be a faulty usb port) but either one generates the same results..
You dont need Odin. Just use fastboot and flash the latest Factory image. There are plenty of guides on how to do that. Good luck! If you cant get it to work just let me know.

okay i tried your advice, but the computer still fails to recognize the phone, i installed the drivers, cause the computer picks up the other sgn that i have here, i just unplugged the one thats fine, and plugged in the one i am trying to fix ant it doesnt do anything,...
Go to System Settings -> Storage -> 3 dots -> USB connection, and set MTP ON (V)
and if that doesn't work, try another DATA cable

tried setting mtp on, tried setting ptp on, tried setting debugging mode off and on, tried a different cable, still nothing..
something i did notice was that i have another sgn here and i went to the storage settings, and i was able to uncheck both mtp and ptp and my computer installed a new device "samsung something something" cant remember what the new device was tho..
oh and the bootloader is locked on the sgn im trying to fix and it is unlocked on the second sgn i have here...
could that have something to do with any of this?
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]
Hey guys, after my phone's last software update I have sort of a problem. I can't connect it to my computer. When I plug it in the computer it says USB device not recognized and I've tried on more than one pc and the results are similar. I tried installing new drivers and LG pc suite (which work but with the wireless connection). And my G Pad 8.3 works like a charm so the problem must be in my phone. The software version which i received is v20u.
Oh and I tried factory reset and again it didn't work. I hope you can help with this bizarre problem.
Try switching in the USB connection option to ptp....

Have a look here it may help >> http://forum.xda-developers.com/lg-g3/help/answer-windows-8-8-1-detecting-lollipop-t2967574 <<
I saw that before i wrote the thread but I can't seem to find " ACER Composite ADB Interface" in my device manager neither when my phone is connected nor when it's not. I think it might be something with the latest software cause before that I never had a problem connecting it to the pc.
PS: i even tried connecting the phone to my TV to see if it'll find it like a flashdrive and againt it started charging and nothing else
