I was trying to transfer some files to my phone through a USB cable today, but the phone was not recognized by the PC at all (Even though it was working a week or so ago). I had some issues before with the cable needing to be still in a certain position or it would disconnect from the PC, so I tried using another USB cable which didn't work either (I tested both USB cables with another device, and both cables were working and the other device was recognized by the PC).
I also updated the USB drivers on my PC with the official drivers on the ASUS support page, and tried putting my phone in fastboot and recovery mode, but both were still not being recognized by my computer. My phone still charges properly, but I am wondering if the USB port got damaged somehow so that it can't connect to a PC anymore?

uninstall and reinstall the drivers. Ensure that phone is not connected during the process.
also have you upgraded your pc os ? if yes then its a little cumbersome to get the same working...
i changed from stock to cm, it is showing well now ... using RR now
Is your phone encrypted? If so you need to unlock in order for your pc to recognize it.
Thank you both of you for the help, unfortunately, my phone was not encrypted so there was no need to unlock in order for it to be detected. Uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers didn't work, and my PC was already on windows 10 since a few months ago. I would also prefer sticking to the stock ROM for this phone for now since they keep coming out with updates.
In addition, I tried using a USB OTG cable to see if the phone could detect the USB drive and my phone couldn't (it has worked before, and my old Galaxy Nexus could still detect it). I also tried plugging my dualshock 3 into the phone, and it also couldn't be detected (also had worked before).
It looks like it's actually a hardware issue and my only option is to RMA it now. I'll have to do it at a time when I don't need my phone as much or when I am not as busy.
PS: In case anyone else has this issue in the future, quick charging also no longer works
zenfone2 I also experienced that, and I have tried several ways, but remains unchanged. I was dizzy today :crying:
Hi everyone, I bought an LG G3 Korean version (F400S) unlocked recently. It is a good phone but I am experiencing three annoying issues (out of the box) with the phone and they are:
1. NO sound at all from the back loudspeaker. The volume is set to maximum, there is no sound from music, video, notifications, touch sound effects, or even ringtone! Surprisingly, when I connect my earphones, there is sound in my earphone, when I remove the earphone, absolutely NO SOUND from the loudspeaker. The sound from ear speaker (the one used to make call) works. I have tested the ringtone in the Hidden Menu, when the ringtone is being played, there is no sound at all.
2. The LG G3 charges well when connected with the charger and when connected with my laptop as well. However, whenever I connect the LG G3 to my laptop, it only charges, it is NOT RECOGNIZED by my laptop. I have the LG Mobile driver installed (downloaded from the LG website (Korea website)), the LG PC Suite installed, the LG Mobile Phone Support Tool installed. Whatever I do, changes the USB cable/ USB port, try in different windows version (Windows 7, 8.1 and 10), USB debugging on and off, reinstall driver, reinstall driver from the option in LG PC Suite, restart the PC several times, NOTHING happens. It is not recognized at all in my laptop. ALSO I cannot see any thing related to LG driver in the Device Manager.
3. USB OTG does not work. I have tried with a working OTG cable to connect a pendrive in my LG G3, it is not recognized, even in the File Explorer of the phone. The cable and pendrive is however detected in my other android device.
The Android version of my LG G3 is Android 4.4.2 (I have received only one update for improving Google experience (about 10 MB).
The Kernel version is 3.4.0
The build number is KVT49L.F400S11a
Software version is F400S11a
Please help me, I have googled for the problems, searched in Youtube as well but no solutions. The phone was bought online, it is original but I have no warranty and even if i need to repair, I will have to send it back to China, which will be money and time consuming. Please help me.
Upgrade to v20F using this KDZ and let me know if it resolves your issues or not

Thanks for the reply, I tried your suggestion, but it did not work. Again, when I tried to connect the LG G3 to the PC so as to flash with the KDZ, it says on the taskbar: 'The last USB device you connected to this computer malfunctioned, and Windows does not recognize it'. In the Device Manager, I get USB Device Not Recognized (Error Code 43), Unknown USB device (Device Descriptor Request Failed) Error Code 43. I googled this issue as well no success, I reinstalled the LG Drivers, rebooted my PC, again NO LG DRIVERS in the Device Manager, and whenever I connect the LG G3 I get the same message I mentioned above. Hence, I cannot upgrade to the v20F version as I cannot connect the device to my PC.
UPDATE: I cannot put the device in download mode for flashing. I hold the volume up button while connecting the cable to the USB 2.0 port. The LG logo appears on the phone and it just charges. Also, I have tried to remove everything related to the drivers and reinstall, now I do not have the Error Code 43, BUT still the phone is not recognized.

Pull the battery
Only press the volume up button while connecting the cable to the USB port.
Let me know if that works. It sounds like your pressing the power button first, pressing volume up and then plugging the usb cable in
If it doesnt theres also the adb method as well that i can tell you after

I tried it but I only get a picture of a battery with a USB cable connected and a yellow triangle with an question mark. No download mode, and it is not detected by my PC. Please give me further suggestions. I am continuously searching how to solve these issues.

First update your drivers on your computer. If that won't work try different ports. USB 2.0 or 3.0 can make a huge difference. Your speaker is probably dead. And i don't have any experience with USB OTG so I can't help you with that

Already tried that with the '15-sec ADB' something like that + with Android studio, I have searched on youtube and google how to do it, but nothing happen when I enter the command, it just says that device not found. Whenever I connect a pendrive or my other phones to my PC, I can see in device manager, it refreshes and the driver for that particular device appears. BUT there is NO refresh nor any driver appearing when connecting the LG G3. Today I tried it with my friend's USB cable (he has the LG G3 (D855), it does not detect as well in his PC but his phone is detected in his PC. I really do not know what is the matter :crying:

Thank you for your reply, I have already tried all of these, nothing is working.
Did you figure out how to get your phone recognized by the computer? I am facing the very same issue and I'm feeling hopeless

No, i am still having the same issue. I think with an update it will be okay (but I have not received any update till now! I am stuck with Kitkat 4.4.2). If it is a hardware problem I will have to return it or replace the USB port or motherboard.

Oh, OK thanks. I'm still reading forums in search for a definite solution.

Hey so i have been having a big problem recently. my htc one m8 32 gb verizon version doesnt get recognized by my computer. ive tried different computers, ports, and cables. i even got a new charging port and installed it but nothing. when i plug my phone into my pc, nothing pops up. the phone only charges but no option to transfer files. htc sync says no phone connected. Also have usb debugging enabled but nothing. running on 6.0 marshmallow and any help would be nice. Thanks!
If you look at your notifications, there will be one you can't clear saying USB Charging this device. Click on the notification and change it to File Transfer.
Couple comments:
1) Try the genuine HTC cable that came with the phone. I've noticed that some 3rd party cables will only charge, and not connect by USB/MTP. I assume the pin layout on those particular cables is not exactly the same as what HTC uses.
I know you probably already tried this (HTC cable) but this may at least narrow down the variables.
2) Assuming a Windows PC, go to device manager, find the phone (hopefully, its listed) then select the option to manually select a driver. Then pick the generic driver for "Android MTP device" (or something like that, forget the exact name). If often have to do this to get my home PC to "see" my M8 by USB. Although my work laptop doesn't have this issue. Your results will vary depending on your exact PC configuration, it can be very confusing and frustrating!
m8 problem
First sorry for bad English.
My M8 is not recognized by my computer. I've tried extra ports, cables, drivers .. Windows 7 64 bit is computer, android 6 is on the phone. Only the phone detects it is connected to a computer and offers the options, mtp, ptp, charging ...
What can I do?

I don't see what the problem is. The PC recognizes the phone. Are you trying to access a function such as fastboot or adb, that is not working? You never say in your post what the problem is.
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)
