I used Helium to change to USB PTP mode and now mine tablet isnt recognized when connected to PC. Want to change it back to MTP mode, but I cant find anywhere in the settings to choose betweens USB modes and I just dont know how Helium broiught me there.
So where is this USB mode settings hiding in the settings?
edit:
Managed to change it back to MTP mode, be secret code *#0808# and there are few choice to choose from. I chosed just MTP, but there is also MTP + ADB and does it matter which to choose? Since the tablet is still not recognized when connected to PC as it used to do before?
Also, USB Mode is suppose in storage settings, but there is no ways to access it by just go into storage settings and only through Helium app. How do you enable this hidden settings in Storage?
Normal there should be "3 dots menu" to get there, but there isnt in mine tablet and do Samsung hve removed it or its a bug?
edit2:
Fixed it, by uninstall Helium and few other apps. After reboot and tablet is recognized when connect to pc and got USB mode choice by pulling notification down.

How come the internal storage and the sd card doesn't show up on my mac? I can see that it is recognizing the phone though.
Tried it with windows 7 on parallels too for some reason they don't show up as drives. Can't seem to figure out why.
It's not on by default, you have to go to Settings>Wireless And Networks>USB Utilities>Connect Storage To PC
After you connect your phone to your computer, on your phone, bring down your notifications and click usb and then click connect usb data mode or whatever it's called. I had the same problem until I found out how it worked.
Both above answers don't give the full story. The default connectivity mode for the phone is a media connectivity mode that simplifies the process and allows you to access your data without unmounting the storage, but it's only supported by Windows. Macs can't connect that way.
86apex's information is one correct way to turn on the more typical mode that will then work with your Mac. It's just not that it's not on by default, it's just that the mode that IS on isn't supported by your system.
Megatr0n.'s instructions are only valid if you have USB debugging mode turned on. Otherwise you wouldn't see what he (I'm assuming) is describing. That said, turning on that mode (Settings/Applications/Development/USB debugging) and enabling that menu option would be easier than going through the steps 86apex listed every single time you want to connect.
i feel like i'm missing something obvious here, but i don't see pc software or charge only in usb connect menu anymore, also the menu doesn't come up when i plug in usb, i just get a prompt if i want to mound sd card or not, it used to have a menu with 5 options now it has 3 and i have to go into settings > storage > menu button > usb connection mode just to see the menu.
thanks in advance for any help on this.

K so i've been reading more on this and i see that google took charge only mode out of android.... is this correct? if so did they also take pc software mode out to prevent connection from pc running terminal?
is there any other way to use adb shell from terminal on my pc using usb connection than pc software mode?

I have no problem using adb with whatever default setting the usb connection is set to in CM10. Just make sure you have Developer Options turned on and Android debugging enabled.
k good to know thanks

Sorry to bring back this thread but I wasn't sure if you figured it out or not?
Anyways, try this:
In CM10.1, I select Mass Storage. Afterward, a screen pops up saying "Press to toggle Mass Storage". When it's not toggled on, that is PC Mode. When toggled on, it's Mass Storage
i figured out that its cyanogenmod that has missing modes when i changed back to a stock based ics they all came back. i have 6 or 7 modes in stock ics and i only had 3 in cm10

Yeah that's what I'm saying. I don't think they actually are missing. I believe they've combined the settings so it's easier to switch between pc and mass storage (one button toggle between the two).
yes i know they are combined i dont like it.

Oh sorry, I misunderstood you.
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]
If you have developer option enabled, there is a settings under NETWORKING that lets us set the default mode when connected via USB. I've set it to MTP but yet, each time I connect the phone to my computer, it is still just "charging" mode.
Anyone have any luck with this?
Also, anyway to disable the D drive prompt? <-- this is one of the Windows that occasionally pop up and contains the setup files (for Windows). I wish we can just delete this thing and free up some extra space.
At OxygenOS 12 adb works only in file transfer mode. If I won't enable it, adb devices lists nothing.
Is it bug? Or maybe there's some kind of option switch for it? Didn't find anything in developer settings so far...
Edit: I've just discovered that if I'm connected to adb (debugging enagled, authorized, usb in file transfer mode) and then change mode to charging only, then usb debugging is disabling completely in developer settings.
And I can't use adb in fastboot/recovery mode.
Yes it is true u cant usb in charger-only mode
Because there is written already "Charger-Only"
