I don't know what's wrong but when I plug my phone into my computer it doesn't connect at all it will show it's charging but that's it. I can go into developer mode and tell it to connect PTP or File transffer but it doesn't pop up when I plug it in, nothing happens just a slow charge.
Anyone have any ideas? Thanks
So turns out it won't connect to my late 2012 MacBook pro with Mojave installed won't even recognize that there's anything on the end of the cable at all but with Bootcamp and Windows 10 installed it works just fine.
Unfortunately that means I have lost 60gb of prime HDD space

Last week it was fine. I recently noticed when I plug my phone in windows (7) no longer shows it in my computer and the sync center says not connected. Phone is charging and it shows in my devices as microsoft windows mobile remote adapter.
What can I do to fix this?
I cannot even reformat my phone. what happened?
edit: Out of some kind of witch craft I reformatted it from the phone and found something in the usb to pc tools. Disabled the fast transfer and now it discovers it as a usb smart phone.
Already tried reformatting Windows and installing any and all drivers I could find.
When I connect my EVO to my PC via the USB cable, the connection type window appears, the amber light turns on, and it shows up on my PC for ~2 seconds. Then it disappears. I have been unable to keep it connected.
It works on other PCs I've tried, just not mine for some odd reason. (Any other USB item works fine), and I've tried multiple USB ports.
Any ideas?
I had this exact issue when I was going through a non-powered USB hub. As soon as I plugged it into my computer's direct USB plug no issues. How old is the computer you are trying to plug this into? Is is USB 2.0? I'm on windows 7 64bit if that helps. Hope you get this fixed, it's annoying as hell.
Forgot to mention, this is on Windows 7 x64 as well.
Im using the ports on my mobo, and its a rather new mobo (XFX 780i). Tried every single port =\
my Evo wont connect to CPU any more ive tried reading all the other threads but still not working
I just want to flesh out some of the details here.
Is the phone charging when you plug it into the computer?
Is there any activity from your PC or the phone when you select "Disk Drive" from the USB menu? (Like maybe a USB error/not connected sound in Windows).
Are you able to access or see it through ADB using the SDK?
Does it work on any other computers?
Have you done anything recently? Did it just happen today?
usb connection not working
I'm having the same problem--my original usb cable was damaged, and I just bought a new (generic) one. Does the EVO require a special type of cable rather than just a standard micro usb?
Here's the details:
USB Debugging is enabled.
Phone is set to ask for connection type (default is disk drive).
Phone charges when plugged into the PC but the computer doesn't recognize it.
In the notification bar, there is the usb debugging icon, but not the other one that usually says charge only/disk drive, etc.
ADB doesn't see the phone.
So far I haven't been able to get to another computer to see if it does the same thing. I tried disabling usb debugging, no effect.
update
Ok, yesterday I got my phone replaced because the screen was damaged. I also got a new usb cable; this one specifically for the EVO. Same thing. I plug it into the computer, and it charges, but the PC doesn't recognize it, and the phone just seems to think it's plugged into an AC adapter. The phone is set to ask what to do whenever I connect it to a PC. Since this is a brand new phone and cable, I would think this would have to be a computer issue, but the PC doesn't seem to recognize that anything has even been connected.
Update: solved--it was the usb port. For some reason the usb ports on my pc case stopped working; plugged into one of the back panel ports and it works fine.
Any microsd cable will work, I'm using my palm pre's now, my htc cable went out a month ago.

Chevk device manager whole you are plugging your phone in. just in case there is some bad driver issue, it should show there.
Swyped from a galaxy far far away......

I've had my One M8 for about 6 months and had no issues, until now. The phone is unrooted, and has never been altered in such a way.
About a week ago I noticed that when I connected my phone to the USB charger plug socket that it said "Slow Charging" in the status bar, however other than that everything seemed to be fine.
However, today I've connected the USB cable to my PC in order to copy some data, however the phone simply states that it's "slow charging" and does not recognise that it is connected to a PC. The PC does not show anything in device manager (not even an unknown device), and I have tried using multiple different drivers, USB cables, and even a completely different PC (a windows 7 one vs my windows 8.1 pc).
Whatever I've tried I cannot get the PC to even acknowledge that a device has been connected, even after twice factory resetting the phone.
Any ideas how I can get a PC to even recognise that there is something connected?
Thanks

Install HTC Sync. Run it to get the drivers, then uninstall HTC Sync.
Also try to give an update
when/if you fix it and what you did so those that view your thread can learn
I just purchased a mint condition Pixel 1 XL on ebay. It arrived with Android 9. I should have plugged it in then to check if USB file transfer mode would work. But I just assumed it would since I've never had a problem with any device in the past: various apple phones, samsung tablet, google nexus tablet.
So I updated the phone to Android 10 before I plugged the phone in, and then discovered it refuses to recognize my device for file transfer, only for charging. It does not show up in device manager at all, even though it is charging. The phone makes a sound to indicate it is charging, but it does not pop up with anything to ask if I want to connect to the PC. The phone 100% acts like I just plugged it into the wall instead of a PC.
OEM unlock is enabled.
USB debugging is enabled.
Default USB configuration is set to File Transfer mode.
I already installed the latest android_winusb driver.
I've rebooted both the phone and the PC.
I've tried plugging it into 3 different Windows 10 PCs with google android usb driver installed. Only one of those PCs has samsung android drivers installed on it. The others only ever had iphone plugged into them. So there shouldn't be any drivers interfering that I know of.
But no matter what, it only charges the device, it never recognizes it in device manager.
Since I bought this off ebay, it did not come with the official, original USB cable.
I'm praying maybe it's just the third-party USB cable causing the problem. But I can't find any cable that is verified to work for File Transfer. Do you know where I can buy a cable like this? Link please?
If it's not the cable, is there any way out of this situation? If I can't get device manager to recognize the phone, I think it's impossible to flash the phone back to Android 9 or something to see if Android 10 broke something???
I've already read some really scary posts online of other pixel phones of various models simply stop recognizing their phones in device manager and they never get it back. It becomes a fancy brick that works as a phone, but you can't actually do anything with it because no PC will recognize it.
I was excited to try a pixel phone for the first time until this happened. What the heck, Google?
Ok I think the stupid trick is you have to UNLOCK the phone BEFORE you plug it in. If you plug it in, and then unlock it, it will never give you a notification asking to connect to the PC no matter what you do.
As someone used to iphones, at least iphone says "unlock me" when I plug it in and it doesn't properly connect. But plenty of other times it will connect to device manager even if I don't unlock it.
Kinda annoyed Android doesn't say anything at all when you plug it in without unlocking it first.
