PC Failed to detect Mi Max ( 64gb version) - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

My Windows 10 notebook could detect the MiMax through its File explorer : I could view all phone contents in internal memory and ext SDcard
BUT using Mi PC Suite software, the phone just couldn't be connected to it - I had selected USB connection as MTP
When I booted the phone into EDL mode, the PC also failed to detect the phone and I just could not select the Qualcomm drivers too
I'd appreciate any help on this

I have the same problem, although adb and fastboot work just fine, I have not been able to get into edl mode, that I can discern. No red flashing light or other indicator. Thought maybe I'd unlock it and see if that helps.
I've read everything I can find and there are 4 different ways to go into edl mode: adb, fastboot, holding volume +/- while inserting usb connected to pc and connected device while holing volume +/- and power, wait for vibration, let loose of power for next vibration, but none work on my device.
I find I have to toggle the usb connection between mtp and whatever then back to mtp to get file access and I wonder if that has something to do with my irregularities.
Not a big deal (pun??) as I love the phone. This has replaced my note 5. Love the size and performance is comparable.

Check if phone is charging when connected and also check the usb port,cable
try this one
switch off tk file explorer :
1) open keypad
2) type *#197328640#
3) open "[6] Common" by pressing on 6 on the displayed keypad.
4) open "[3] USB Configuration" by pressing 3.
5) NOW WAIT , and check for the star mark in front of the two options.
If its next to OFF then you dont need to do anything else, just close everything.
If its next to on then press 2 to turn it off.
It will show this after pressing 2 >>---> " [1]TkFilexplorer - ON [] "
Now close everything and you are done !
pls also try very very carefully
if you dont understand completely - you shoudnt do it
go to control panel - hardware and sound - device manager
expand the view of the usb - universal serial bus
make sure that that you have the drivers to your usb devices
delete all the usb from there
disconnect all usb devices
restart your pc and let windows reinstall all your usb components
and then retry to connect your cell
good luck

[GUIDE] [Solution] How To Get Windows 8.1 To Recognise USB Mass Storage

How To Get Windows 8.1 To Recognise USB Mass Storage On Your Phone​
I have had the problem for ages that when I connected my Samsung Galaxy GT-S5360 into my Windows 8.1 PC nothing happened - Windows 8.1 simply refused to recognise the device - not even anything in device manager - nothing - nada
However it would recognise the phone if I set the phone to download mode - but I want to use my phone as mass storage
Well after months of trying I finally found a really stupid solution
Solution
Install the usb drivers for your phone as normal
connect the phone to pc via usb cable (nothing happens other then a few beeps as normal)
now plug in any usb dongle that you have already installed on your pc - like a usb wireless mouse dongle
suddenly windows detects the phone and you can now set your phone to mass storage from the phone status bar
Every time you want to connect your phone in mass storage just plug it in then plug in the other usb dongle after

it maybe the brand of laptop too and the chipset of the laptop - there have been lots of problems with usb devices with windows 8.1 and inbuilt bluetooth too although manufacturers quickly released new bluetooth drivers as the windows 8 ones didnt work in windows 8.1
so this is just for those who have problems with their particular laptop
Similar Issue with Samsung Galaxy S
I had a similar problem when I needed to copy some files onto a Galaxy S. In the past, I had to ensure that USB Debugging was off, connect the USB cable and then select Mass Storage on the smartphone. Win 8.1 Explorer did not see the device although it showed up as SAMSUNG_Android in Eject Media and Device Manager had the phone listed under Universal Serial Device. I was able to access the phone on one laptop by selecting Samsung Kies as the connection method (showed up in Explorer under the device type rather than a drive letter) but this did not work on another laptop.
The steps described in "How to connect Android devices to PC with USB Mass Storage Mode" on device-recovery.com worked for me on both Win 8.1 laptops: enable USB Debugging, connect the phone, pull down the status bar, tap on the USB Connected entry and then Mass Storage.

What you said will not work for this phone because when you plug it into a windows 8.1 laptop the option to select connect to mass storage in status bar is not there - It just shows the phone as charging
The only way iv found on a windows 8.1 laptop with this issue (note it depends on your hardware to weather you have this problem) is to plug the phone into the laptop then plug any other dongle in - the option to then connect to mass storage suddenly appears in the status bar and you can connect as normal

USB conection problems, faulty hardware?

my a2 lite does not connet to my pc, I have installed drivers, put it on usb debug, but my pc does not recognize de phone, I have tried different usb ports and cables with no success, it does charge eventually with some cables, but I don't know if this is hardware problem or there is any setting I am missing, it does not give me any choice of chosing the usb kind of conection
it is a new phone just prepped for everyday use, not hacked or modded in any way
USB OTG is working but only reading, I cannot write in external usb drive with es file explorer, or the includer file aplication, it says unsupported operation

thank you, but I cannot acces from adb as there is absolutely no conection from my computer, it only starts charging but as if it were just a charger, there is no usb mode options avalaible y my phone, and the pc does not recognize anything conected
I have tried to connect with another computer with the same results, it only gets power, but no data comunication whatsoever
as nobody gives any clue or info about some hidden setting, I must assume this is another case of bad quality control in xiaomi products, I will check with the seller
Did you specifically set file transfer mode via the notification drawer or left it on charge only?

the phone does not detect either that it is connected to a computer, so the notification to select the mode of connection does not even show
I have tried usb otg and I can read fine but I cannot write at all in a pendrive
I have installed also an sd card as internal memory and have storage errors all the time so I have removed it
I have tried also conection in fastboot mode but the computer still does not recognize anything connected
I have uses several cables, usb ports and even 2 different pc with same results
My only guess is that there were some hidden config setting that is messing with the phone, that's the reason I am asking before going to the seller.
Seems like a broken USB pin then

an usb pin should not affect internal sd memory, and usb does not work like water pipes, one pin data in one pin data out, they need both data pins for reading also, so as it can read from pendrive the problem is somewhere else, not in the connector.
This could be a hardware problem. Have you tried to connect it to another computer?
I have already tried on 3 diferent computers with same results. The only diference so far is that it actually does not read either the content of a pendrive connected through OTG, the first day it read it, now it only detects but reads nothing.
Also when sd is configured as internal memory, instead of reading internal memory, that seems to be the normal result, I can read only the sd card with android file explorers
I have the same problem.
No connection data with pc/mac, it only charges.
I'm italian and like many other italians, I've also the problem with Sim slot 2 with no connect..

F**k, this phone starts to look like a piece of garbage I dont connect to USB, I dont use SD not 2nd sim, so I did not experience these issues, but, f**k again..
Have you tried rebooting? Press the power button for 15secs. to power it off. Use another cable, use another PC, make sure the cable is plugged in properly... bla bla bla. Oh, have you tried placing the phone into a dry rice bowl? Haha (sorry, I had to). I'm sure you've tried it all.
So, I have not much to say. Only that I had a similar problem with a Moto G after I flashed a LineageOS ROM. It worked fine before, but with the new ROM, the USB didn't work at all (it could only read OTG). It was stuck in the "charging" mode. No notification nor option to turn it to file transfer. The PC didn't recognise it at all, either.
Solution? Initially, I turned on USB debuging option and the PC saw the phone (on windows device manager, it was there, but not on MyPc). It was some advance. I can't remember if adb detected it.
Final solution? Luckily my phone was rooted and had a custom recovery, so I could easily flash the same ROM from the TWRP recovery and everything works fine now.
You might try using Xiaomi's flash tool to try to flash the orginal ROM again IF the phone is recognised by the tool (try if it can see the phone) http://en.miui.com/download-354.html
And I suggest contacting Xiaomi for a warranty claim if needed, 'cause it looks like a harware problem (a pin the the microUSB port issue). But be ready to answer the questions posted above several times haha.
Good luck!

I have done all your sugestions previously, even reseting phone with a new gmail account so no config setting from other phone could interfere, I have also tried fastboot, but although phones goes to fast boot mode the pc does not recognize connection either
it is not an usb pin issue, tried 6 cables, 4 computers, 10 or more usb 2 an 3 ports, I am negotianting in aliexpress a refund, we'll see
If I go into recovery mode with power vol+ a broken android appears.

I don't know if you already did this, but try using a PC with Linux (you can use Ubuntu without installing it on the PC, then install the fastboot package).
Hi,
I had no problem with fastboot and adb with Mac!
Phone recognized by the machine and do transfer boot.img for magisk...
Now I Win!
I can see the internal memory with Android File Transfer (Trasferimento File Android in italian!) - this is the link https://www.android.com/filetransfer/.
My version of Build is V.9.6.8.0.
Solution:
- Connect the phone to pc/mac;
- Go to: Settings -> System -> Developer Options -> Select USB Configuration -> select first "Charge" and then "MTP" (Media Transfer Protocol)
- The system recognize the phone!
[for italian, like me, andare su Impostazioni -> Opzioni Sviluppatore -> Seleziona Configurazione USB -> scegliere "Ricarica" e poi "MTP" (Media Transfer Protocol) ]

Where are you from? Where did did you purchase the phone (the actual store, is it in China)? Depending on where are you from and what country did you buy the phone from, by law, you'll get manufacturer warranty. So, any "official" distributor in your country will have to provide a warranty solution for you. If Ali Express is unable to provide you with a solution, look into that.
Let us know how it work out for you

Question Completely Bricked! Someone help

One plus 9pr complete brick. Cannot access fastboot or recovery. Will not turn on and when I plug in only shows a connect a chargwer screen. It is charged. I cannot get msm tool to connect either.
What led up to this point?
We'll need more info than this:
Are you using a Windows computer?
Is it Windows 10?
Have you plugged in USB via USB port on the computer or USB hub? (Should always plug directly into the computer)
Windows 10 has driver signature checks on by default, the Qualcomm drivers are not signed so you need to disable signing before trying to use MSM tool : https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials...river-signature-enforcement-windows-10-a.html (I usually use option 2, BCDEdit)
Here's the Qualcomm EDL drivers : https://www.androidfilehost.com/?fid=14943124697586335873
You need to press both VOL buttons and POWER to get into EDL mode, make sure you choose the correct assignment from the top "TARGET" dropdown in the MSM tool too and make sure it's the correct MSM tool for your region/phone. They're all available from here
There's a decent guide here
There's a video here for OnePlus 8/8 Pro but it's the same technique (remember to give him a like if he helps you out ) :
If the MSM tool doesn't show "CONNECTED" on any COM port then keep the cable connected and try rebooting the phone back into EDL mode again, it will eventually show up.

Question How to get in edl mode

Hi all
during without pc next to me. I’m using MacBook Pro to run windows 10 in virtual machine, but now the problem is appearing, how can I get my phone in edl mode and connect to windows? Cause normally, when I connect to MacBook, there’s options for me to choose connect to windows or Mac system. Please help.

Why do you need EDL mode? If you already unrooted and your phone is working, you shouldn't need MSM. That is mainly used to recover a bricked device.
To get in EDL mode, power off the phone and unplug from the computer. Hold down Vol+ and Vol- while you connect USB to computer. Keep holding both Vol buttons until it gets to EDL mode. I don't know about your virtual machine, you'll just have to look at settings and see if there are different options for how to handle USB devices.
adb reboot edl
is my preferred way when possible. I also found on my windows computer I needed the non-64bit Qualcomm USB driver or my device would just reboot after going into EDL mode.
