Galaxy A5 2017 USB 3.0 support - Samsung Galaxy A3, A5, A7 (2017) Questions & Answe

I have a replacement cable.
I tried plugging in my device in my laptop using USB 3.0 port but it only charges my phone, it doesn't detect the MTP to transfer files. But when I tried plugging it in in the USB.. 2..0 port, MTP works.
My question is, is this because of the cable? Or is the A5 not supported by USB 3.0?

Mine works on a USB 3.0 port.
USB 3.0 should be backwards compatible to USB 2.0, so I think it's the cable. Maybe you could try again on a different pc? Just to be sure.

If you're using Windows check your device manager to see what it says, maybe a specific usb driver is needed?

i have same problem.
many time ago my phone (A5 2017) recognize with my laptop but after some update its not recognize in laptop but detect in office PC.

Update Xperia S via USB 3.0

Hey,
I have been looking on the internet for this for hours, no solution found, but found a lot of people with this problem.
My laptop (windows 8) only has USB 3.0 ports, no USB 2. Appearently it seems to be impossible to update a Sony phone via computer by connecting it to a USB 3.0 port. During the process, the phone shuts down automatically, and when it reboots, it is no longer recognized by the computer (it should reboot in flash mode, but it doesnt). I've tried both PC Companion and Sony Update Service, both give the same result.
The solution I did find on the internet was: try connecting via USB 2. I dont really have another computer available, tried it on someone else's laptop, which was a very old one, this gave me an error, probably because of other problems with the laptop.
My question is, is there ANY other way to make this update work via USB 3? And preferably a way that is understandable for someone with minor knowledge about the technical aspects involved
Thanks
My laptop has 3 USB 3.0 Ports and 1 USB 2.0 port. I've been always using my Xperia Ion with the USB 3.0 port and it works fine with flashtool as well. Try a different cable.

Oh... thats nice (for you). However, it doesnt work for me, with neither usb port, as is the problem for a lot of other ppl appearently...
I only have 1 cable, so cant try another one, the cable is not the problem though I guess. Since in all cases the cable works fine and the phone is recognized by the computer, except at the moment it should reboot in flashmode when reconnectint it to the laptop (during updating). Googling the problem yields alot of ppl having this problem, only nowhere a clear solution...
I've been trying to go through the update process for 10 times now, just doesnt work

USB ethernet driver

hi
i have buy lenovo ethernet adapter for my surface rt, but i connot found arm drivers
thinkpad usb 3.0 ehernet adapter
is it possible work whit my surface??
If you plug it in and it doesn't work automatically, then probably not.
I don't know if you're running RT 8.0 or 8.1. On 8.0 there was exactly 1 driver available for worked with USB adapters that used the AX88772 chip, but I'm fairly sure they are USB 2.0. This driver was NOT included with the OS.
With 8.1 I believe there are two drivers that shipped with the OS, but I recall reading that they don't automatically install when a USB Ethernet adapter is plugged in, so you might try running the add new hardware wizard and select the driver manually. I still suspect these drivers are for USB 2.0 but I'm not sure. Perhaps you'll get lucky...
Try install this driver. Only for Win8.0.

USB 2.0 vs USB 3.1 Type C cable

Now I have several Type C cable including two 3.1 (Belkin and Anker) cable.
All charge fine, but I realized 3.1 cable has problem on file transfer (computer cannot recognize), but all 2.0 type C cables work 100%.
It's probably H918 isn't compatible with USB3.1.
---- update ----
Install latest USB driver fixed the problem

Is there a question you're asking or is this just an observation?

My opinion.
The phone only works with USB2.0

I can confirm. However USB 3.1 cables work for transfers in TWRP.
I figured out why.
Make sure you have latest USB driver.
If you have LG Bridge, update to the latest driver.
If you installed LG United Driver, make sure it's 4.2.0

After updated the driver, both 2.0 and 3.1 cable work properly.
I have 4.1.1 and it won't recognize my USB 3 cables, both from Anker... well, it won't recognize properly if I choose file transfer, but it works fine if I choose picture transfer or use them on USB 2.0 ports. any suggestions?

Try LG Bridge
BTW, the latest United Driver version is 4.2.0
Some crap with windows. It took me hours but I finally was able to get the usb 3.1 cable to transfer files. I couldn't tell you what I did though. It wasn't drivers though. It was all windows.
Is there any difference in charging times between USB 2.0 and 3.1, if you're using a type-C QC3.0 power adapter?

I'm also interested in this. I don't think there should be a difference.

Can't connect to PC via USB

Had this issue on my previous PC that my 5T would only connect via USB in a USB 2.0 port. Thing is my new PC is 3.0 and 3.1 only. I've no 2.0 ports. How do I get it connected without going over network? All it does it charge. I've set to MTP in developer settings already.
Edit: Nevermind, got it working.

Question I need some help please!

Hi , my Poco F3 arrived today and i was very hyped to use it but i've come into a problem.
Neither my win10 laptop or my F3 can identify each other when i connect them via USB, i can't even find it on the device manager, on my sister's laptop it connects and identifies weirdly enough but that's an older laptop is really slow and unreliable for anything specially since its not mine.
My laptop is a new one 2020 model and it connects well to any other device ...
I've tried replugging 100 times and i've made sure USB debbuging was toggled on my poco, also made sure the usb config was on file transfer, i've tried installing various ADB drivers too but it didn't help.
Can anyone please help me out with this , the poco f3 is my first android device and i really wanted to put other roms and use the ADB fastboot tools to debloat it but without connecting it with my laptop its gonna be very hard ...
Use official USB cable. Don't use a USB hub. Connect directly to the laptop. Change a USB port.
Plug your phone USB cable to laptop, switch file transfer mode on phone drop down menu, then reboot your laptop without disconnecting your phone from laptop.
Right click on the windows button on the task bar. Click on device manager. Does any device appear on their when the F3 is plugged in. Also as said above directly connect to a PC usb port rather than through a hub (maybe use a Usb c to usb c cable if your laptop only has usb c ports)
