Hi, as per title, I can't seem to prevent my Samsung S20 from connecting to external displays, keyboards, etc via USB-C docks.
I have:
- Developer Options - Default USB Options - Charging Only
- Developer Options -Disable USB Audio Routing - On
- Samsung Dex - disabled
... but I still get screen mirroring to external displays and network interruption when the phone tries to use the dock's network connection.
If I try to change the USB mode from the drag down menu from USB controlled by: External Device to This Device, the external display disconnects then reconnects, and the setting is reverted back to External Device.
Is there anything else I can do, short of use a power-only cable? Sadly, a normal USB charger is not an option here (trust me).

I'm wondering to what extent it is possible to control the behaviour of the USB port on Android devices - clearly there is room for latitude as 2.2 gave us USB tethering. I'm hypothesising about whether it would be possible to a) write an emulation of the iPod/iPhone's behaviour when docked to a car stereo via USB or failing that (which, I guess would take a lot of reverse-engineering) just USB MTP mode to allow USB-supporting car stereos to playback music from the Android phone without unmounting the SD card... (which is a pain as crappy Kenwood stereos dramatically alter the handling of random when playing files from a mass storage device - it's by folder only rather than having an option to shuffle the whole library) If the USB interface driver kept track of what files it was serving to the USB host, you could even scrobble playback information while connected to the car stereo to Last.fm (something I used to be able to do on a jailbroken iPhone and miss on Android.)
Of course, you could just take the easy approach and use A2DP, I guess, but I'd have to buy a new bluetooth module for my stereo to do that, and I'd guess many are in a situation where this would be unfeasible.
I want to have a dock in my car next to my USB port (as shown) to rest my phone in and connect through USB to play music. The Bluetooth on my car isn't the best, it doesn't let me change songs through the wheel controls but USB mode does, so I need my phone to be in mass storage mode.
My question is, If you put the Atrix on the motorola standard dock and connect the dock to a PC/car does it allow you to enter mass storage mode? I'm on cm9 if it makes a difference.
If so, that would be really handy as I could leave my usb cord connected to the dock all the time and just pop my phone on and I'm good to go rather than having to physically grab the cord and connect it to my phone all the time. It'll look much nicer too.
Thanks guys.
When I plug my standard dock into my pc with a usb cable, the usb mass storage option does not appear. I get webtop, entertainment center, gallery, music, widget clock, dismiss picker, mirror phone on display, and other...and under other I only have Alarm Clock Plus...and app I have added.
Well that's not good. Maybe it'd be different under cm9 because it doesn't run blur. I've bought it anyway, so we'll see. If it doesn't work I'll just use it as a charger.
Got my dock in the mail today and unfortunately it doesn't let me use mass storage mode when connected, even on cm9. Might just pull it apart and feed my own usb cord through it.
I recently purchased the Smart Dock, in which I had a separate topic on.
My keyboard and mouse are plugged into a USB hub, that's plugged into one of the USB ports of the dock. They work fine, except it's really difficult to manage, because when attempting to type into a box, the screen gets messed up, as the on-screen keyboard appears all the time.
Is there a way to suppress the on-screen keyboard ONLY when my phone is docked and Keyboard/Mouse are detected?
Hi,
I have a OTG/MHL adapter which has 2 USB ports and 1 HDMI port along with other SD/MMC etc. The phone is displaying fine on TV.
However I have a broken screen/digitizer. This is the reason for creating the thread.
When I connect my wired mouse into any of the USB ports, it displays Mouse connected (connected to HDMI through to TV) but there is no pointer and no movement. RED LED is lit under Mouse to show power is drawn.
I have a LG G3 phone but unfortunately trying to connect to it doesn't work however I have another USB OTG Cable but it's only 1 connection. Micro USB to USB. IF I connect that to my LG phone along with my wired mouse then I see the pointer and I can control my phone. No issues.
My Broken phone android version is 4.4.x
The mouse is a new mouse but one of the cheap one from eBay. Bottom of the Mouse the Rating is 5V --- 100Ma
The OTG Adapter is another cheap one but it's always worked for me without any issues. However MAYBE, just maybe the reason it doesn't work is because the power input or DC is also 5V. Does that mean the mouse is taking all the power?
What I'm trying to achieve -
Enable WIFI so then I can remote control the device etc. I use the Broken phone for KODI.
Can I use any ADB commands to make it work? I don't have it rooted I don't think but I can start the phone in Recovery mode.
Any advice will help,
Thanks
Hello,
My USB-C headphones both stock and another (from huawei) don't work anymore on my note 10+
When i connect them, nothing happens, it's only showing "Android system- USB connected" in the notification panel
Music's playing through the phone speaker. Only the bluetooth is working, and i can use DEX with a HDMI dongle without problem
I tried a dirty flash (keeping my data), without success.
