Galaxy Note 10 Plus - New update bug to connect PC - Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers

Hi everyone,
I am a big fan of Samsung, especially, note series. I am using two devices same time included: Note 10+, Note 9. I updated software in both of them last week. Everything is ok so far but I encounter the big issues of cable to connect PC.
I can not use my original cable (type C to C) to connect my phone to PC. It had worked before the software updated. I tried to reinstall drivers or Samsung DEX but nothing changed so far. This problem happened not only in my Note 10+ but it also happened in my Note 9.
Besides, I tried with my USC 3.1 to C, USB 2.0 to C result in one of them work which is USB3.1 to C. It means the communication between Mobile and PC is operated via USB3.1 only. I try to find more information about these issues.
I really need your advice now, guys. Please give me some ideas or way I can fix this problem. Does also anyone have same problems with me??

Look at the error messages on the PC.
Clear the cache on the 10+'s boot menu.
Check all related settings on both machines.
If everything's running well and stable... I avoid updates.

Tks your advice. The problem is my PC didn't recognize my phone like it used to do. Nothing happened when I connect my phone to the PC via type C-type-C(USB 3.1 gen 2 to type C) or USB 2.0-TypeC. I used a USB viewer to check the connection, however, the result is negative. Otherwise, the connection works normally when I use USB 3.1 gen 1 to type C, USB viewer also can detect the connection from the phone.

I haven't played with this yet... as I expect the same fun you're having:laugh:
Bad or wrong cable or maybe a driver issue.
Maybe missing MS libraries (side by side errors is always that).
Use the MS Event viewer to see the errors.
Maybe reload the driver(s). The correct driver may be bundle in other Samsung PC apps you haven't installed.
Make sure the phone USB is correctly configured in Developer Options .

I tried all of your recommendations above, however, nothing works until now. I tried to contact supporters from Samsung and other Samsung android. I recognized the problem only happened in Exynos devices. Somebody in the Vietnamese forum had the same issues as me and his devices are also using Exynox.
So that anyone in this forum has experienced that problem please confirm in this forum for tracking. I figured out the technology inside this problem which is my phone can not use D+/D- from USB 2.0 anymore. I do not know that problem occurred due to Firmware or Hardware falures. Try to find something is useful, and recommendation from you guys. Thanks and have a nice day.

Is Windows Event Viewer showing any error messages when you try to connect?

Nothing happened, I think somehow my note 10 plus D+/D- of USB were dead which result in PC can not detect the signal. I tried to use USB cable to test the resistor in D+/D-. The result is OL(in VOM). In my opinion, somehow firmware affects my D+/D- ports which cause the lost connection. I got it from the last update firmware from official Samsung. Before that, everything goes right, stable connection to pc, stable charge with the adapter.

Try a known good cable. Try another PC for clues of the root cause.
It could still be a setting or apk issue in the Samsung; of course it could be completely the firmware.
Even if the PC sees/doesn't see the connection being made it could still be a driver issue there.
Event Viewer has it's limits but was a good starting point. I had a similar issue with a PC USB driver and it was a real time consuming pain. After rolling back drivers multiple times and many reboots latter, it worked.
Keep googling and playing with it... you'll find it.
Once I have a fast,stable platform that's running well I rarely update.
Tired of MS, Android, Samsung, AT&T, etc screwing up my OS loads. Malware, Trojans, viruses, etc. have cost me one OS load max in 16 years even on very outdated OSs.
None on Android that required a reload... not one in 6+ years.
Of course it can happen but it's obvious that for me that most times updates/upgrades are the real malware:laugh:

I have the same problem on exynos note 10 plus 5g! Have solved yet?

Meh... Rule #1, if your Android OS is running fast, stable and fulfilling its mission, let it be.
My 10+ hasn't been updated in over a year and a half. Current OS load is over a year old still fast and very stable with little maintenance needed.
Security has not been an issue.
The easiest fix, now, would be to flash the firmware* that was working.
If that doesn't work the C port PCB may have failed. I would suspect that before a mobo failure.
*during production run Samsung will substitute chipsets as supply demands. This may lead to firmware updates being incompatible if the correct instruction set is omitted and/or incompatible for those chipset(s).
Yes this happens and worse Samsung has to physically examine the phone to determine precisely which chipset was used. Then Samsung engineers can hopefully rewrite the firmware to be compatible with all devices... or replace the chipset(s)

If you haven't done a factory reset, do so. It won't run right until you do. Do not use SmartSwitch.
I'm thankfully still running Pie. Still have overlay support for trusted apks. Karma Firewall's valuable logging feature is fully functional as well.
Google went Apple insane with scoped storage starting with 10 and has been in a high G flat spin ever since. Rather than cut to idle and recover they jam it into the afterburner indent like a rank G-Loc rookie. 12 is going wet
It's one reason I didn't buy the 20U.

[Q] Windows 7 Doesn't Recognize my Continuum...

So I'm attempting to root the Continuum, but for some reason the phone won't effectively connect to Windows 7. For example, when I hook the phone up to my Samsung i7 laptop, all the phone does is charge. It doesn't even ask me if I would like to use usb storage or anything. The computer also doesn't recognize the device. Any ideas? Thanks!
A couple questions first:
- Did you install the Continuum drivers?
- Does your phone bring up the USB connection in the status bar?
- Does it bring up the Verizon VCast website on connection?

1. I likely did not install the Continuum drivers, and I have no clue where to get them. I'm assuming Samsung's website, but it's a bit hard to figure out and navigate...
2. My phone does not bring up the USB connection in the status bar.
3. When I go to the browser, it brings up the Verizon website with news, etc.
It should probably be stated as well that this phone is not activated. I am using it on wifi only for the time being because I traded it with a friend for another phone.
Alright, so I've figured it out. Strangely enough, I was just using a generic USB to microUSB cable, and I actually needed to use a Samsung cable. Weird, right?

So...now that I'm rooted, how in the world do I install a custom rom? I saw that there's a ClockworkMod Recovery out, but what does "Odin" mean? I'm coming from an LG Optimus V and have extensive experience rooting and installing custom roms and recoveries, but I've never heard of that before. Thanks again!
First, we dont have much for custom roms on this phone. The couple we do have contain fairly well written "how-to's" for them.
Second, if you are not sure, do some research and find out as many answers with the vast pool of knowlendge at your fingertips (the interwebs) as you can. There has already been a swarm of questions asked, and I am sure the answers may already be there for you.
I am waiting for the update and Froyo roms to come out before I bother with custom roms, but I am not holding my breath for that. I will probably be on my next Android phone before I will bother. Modding it up with Widgetlocker, ADW Launcher, and some other goodies at the moment to tide me over.
I had this same problem today. USB mass storage wasn't working, adb wasn't working. I wasn't using the samsung cable, but I can't see how that would make a difference, as the cable I was using has worked for literally a couple dozen different phones from different manufacturers - including other samsungs. I had the samsung drivers installed.
The owner claims that only media sync works on his computer as well, and that usb mass storage has never worked. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?
i am also getting this problem. as far as i know i am still using the samsung cable, as normal micro-usb cables dont fit in the continuums port. ill look for another one, but this is quite odd. what i have done (all windows 7 64 bit):
drivers uninstalled
drivers installed
lagfix on
lag fix off
factory reset (within adrenalyne's rom)
i am going to try to transfer the stock rom via bluetooth and see if that works
edit: turns out that isnt possible without odi recognizing the device, which it doesnt (not even in download mode). this is very peculiar
some more information: nothing even shows up in device manager. no unknown devices, nothing. the phone charges, but thats it. i might go to the verizon store and see if i can get another cable
My guess is because you are using a 64 bit version of windows..

Why would that matter at all?
The 64bit version of Windows 7 is notorious for not being compatible with a lot of devices. There just arent any 64bit drivers. If you dont understand how to run your software in the proper compatibility mode you will run into problems. I used the x64 version of Win7 for about 12 seconds after I realized my ancient usb optical mouse didnt work lol.
My advice, try running the Samsung driver installer in compatibility mode and see if that doesnt help.

Compatibility mode won't do anything in the case of drivers. I'm not sure what your issue is though as all of my Samsung phones have been picked up fine from within Windows 7 x64. Is the phone picked up on any non-Windows 7 computer? Have you checked in Device Manager to see if it just needs installed?
its the cable. i took mine to the verizon store, they tested it, and gave me a new one for free. works perfectly now
Excellent, problem solved!
So it turns out a factory reset fixed it. Using a moto cable. So that's definitely not the issue. Flashing froyo now. Thanks!
I have encountered that a few times also. Its weird cuz when I plugged the usb into ac charger it almost immediately asks if I want to mount sd for data transfer. 20 mins later I unplug usb from unit and plugit into my win7 pc and nothin? So plugged back into ac unit and it recognize....so I mounted and it didn't know what to do lol. I then plugged back intopc...waited...changed orientation and 'Boom' pc sees it...in fact I change orientation whenever it seems to hang and seems to work....

I should also note that I have never used a samsung cable and every usb micro I've used (moto,kodak,BB,Lg) has fit and worked. But I have noticed some usb related quirks since froyo update like no lock screen after charging till I push home button, inaccurate batt icon (goes from 3/4 to 1/4 in like 10 mins but overall batt life is same as before)...
On an unrelated note I also can't get v6supercharger to work...?

Galaxy Nexus USB Not Working

Hi! I tried connecting my phone to my pc today and it wouldn't connect (and I don't see the notification on the phone). I tried with another other pc and different USB cables with no luck. Is there any solution to this ?
Thanks

Try ever so carefully bending the usb port up towards the screen. Maybe with a tooth pich so you do not scratch anything. My SGS2 did this and after tweaking I had ZERO issues.
I just tried that it sometimes works now (rarely though ). I also noticed that the phone charges its just the MTP that isnt working
Same issue...
Went to root my Gsm gnex... Couldn't connect to the pc...
And now whenever I go into gallery it force closes... Could it be an issue with the internal storage?

Not sure I've had my phone rooted since the start of this year...I also reflashed a different ROM (full data wipe) so I don't think it's software related

Is there any chance that you've got fast-charge enabled (say if you're running a kernel that allows it and some script starts it upon boot?)? If so, then USB Storage or MTP isn't going to work and isn't supposed to until you do this:
1) take it out of fast-charge mode (like with .. trickster mod or an "#echo 0 > /sys/.. {wherever it goes, have to google it},
2) unplug USB
3) plug it back in
4) hopefully it'll work if that was the problem.
Just a thought and it's happened to me. I use a script I wrote on boot to enable fast USB charge and another from userspace to disable fast charge so I can see the drive.
Good luck.

I use Trinity Kernel and I made sure fast charge is disabled. I even flashed from Rasbean to CM10 to make sure it isnt related to the Rom or kernel. I'm guessing it might have something to do with the usb port in the phone as sometimes it connects but disconnects after a while
Thanks anyways

Ah well, too bad. I guess if you need to get to your PC and don't mind reduced speeds, you could always use a cifs (common internet file system) aware kernel, (faux or air I think, maybe more), then use cifsmanager to mount whatever PC share you like and transfer over the air for now.

I have this issue with one of the many cables from replacements that i got. Its weird because like you said it charges but it doesn't connect. And I've noticed that if I use that cable to charge my phone it takes for ever to charge. But if I use one of the others it charges like a lightning striking the ground

checked driver installation on both PC's ????
hardware issue?
I did some research and came to conclusion that it is most likely a hardware issue. I had tried bending the pin inside the USB port but that didn't do the trick for me and seems to be a rather unreliable solution. I found a guide to replace the port yourself on ifixit. Since I don't own the tools and am not very good in repairing those things myself I had mobiletechvideos do it for me (i'm not allowed to post a link but you'll find it by googling for it).
It's a fair price for not having to do it myself and risking serious damage to the device. I got my phone back after 9 days and since then it has been working like a charm.
Anyway, it sucks that the micro usb port is that fragile and got damaged so easily in the first place.
I had connect problem and everyone kept saying i needed to install drivers and sending me to toolkits. I KNEW drivers installed. Turned out to be the usb inf file in sdk only had nexus one, ns4g, and the 7 wrote in. I copied the gnex info to the file and rebooted computer. Worked perfectly. Didn't even get the new hardware popup.
*Shaolin Shadowboxing*
I've been using trinity and noticed that sometimes it doesn't recognize the USB when plunged in after it's been up for awhile... Something happens when it's been on for awhile I don't know if it is fast charge related or not..
My solution... reboot the phone with the USB plugged in.. works EVERYTIME...

[Q] Weird USB Problem.. SGH-T999

"This device can perform faster" note when I plug my device to the laptop.
Tested with no help:
- Two similar devices connecting without a problem. (Bought together)
- All ports tested on 2 different computers.
- all *#7284# "qualcomm usb settings".
- MTP mode and PTP (camera) mode.
- USB debugging On and Off.
I'm pretty hopeless..
Could this be a hardware problem?
The device is 3 months old.
Adroid 4.1.1
What should I try?
Thanks.
There is not really any "Problem". What's happened is that you plugged a USB2 (or faster) into a USB1 port.
In plain english, your computer might just be a little older, and not have all the faster stuff that newer pc's have.
If you plug in a older USB Device, it would work with no problem and no message.
If you plug in a newer USB2 device (it runs 2X faster than USB1) it will show you that message, but the device will still work fine, except it will be slower than if you had plugged it in a USB2 slot.
If your Computer is older, it might be a benefit for you to get it updated, if there is software available via Microsoft Updates.
If it's XP that's running, you could benefit using the Service Pack2 or Service Pack3 updates.
It may also be that your hardware is going as fast as it possibly can, and cannot go any faster. Bottom line is, it'll work fine so don't worry.
Aloha!

Are "all my devices" USB2? You were not clear with your explanation. sorry, I was just trying to help you, but you don't really need any help from me after all! You seem to know so much more than I do. Sorry to have bothered ............

SGH-T999 Unstable USB Connection

Hey everyone,
I'm sort of at a loss here. Basically, on my personal laptop, Dell Precision M6800 Mobile Workstation, I connect my T999 via USB. The entire time I've had this laptop, the USB connection on my T99 has been unstable. What I mean is that when I connect my phone, the connection seems to continuously connect and disconnect.
What I've done thus far is:
Update to the latest Samsung USB drivers.
Updated Windows 8.1.
Updated the to the latest Intel Chipset drivers.
New ROMs on the phone... from stock to CM11.
Replaced phone, so new base hardware.
Are there some other settings in Windows 8.1 I need to disable or check? That seems to be the only consistent element here.
Any help would be appreciative.
Thanks,
Johnathan
Try different cables. They often go bad. Otherwise it may be an issue with the laptop.
Also the latest drivers are not necessarily the best. The latest versions had a number of changes made for the S5 and Note3. Also make sure you are uninstalling them from device manager.

Doc,
Thanks for that. So, I assume I can go to FileHIppo or another site to download the 'latest' USB drive before the S4 came out?
I have tried other cables as well... found out that one of them is only good for charging and not transferring data.
I do think I might have found an issue... the Mophie battery pack I have for this thing seems to be having issues with its USB port... it works fine on my work laptop, but not mine... but then I also have issues with charging it from a certain USB cable... I took it out of its pack last night and was able to keep it connected directly to the phone... I also did update the USB drivers, again, last night... so I guess we'll see what happens.
Thanks again,
Johnathan
Check the link on my sig. I have several driver versions available there.

Question Poco F3 fails on file transfers

I'm on Arrow OS v12.1 if that matters. I've been having issues transferring my music over usb to my Poco F3, random files are not transferrable and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to why. The files aren't corrupted because I can play them in my music player and even trying to transfer them one at a time it aborts the file transfer. I haven't seen much online about how to fix this and nothing has worked so far. I've set usb default to file transfer and turned on preventing the phone from going to sleep while charging in the developer settings. Also updated my bios because I saw something about it being a potential ryzen issue but updating didn't work. Any other things to try to fix this would be greatly appreciated.
I've the same issue with my PC. Ryzen 3000-series based.
One of the USB ports on the back works the most reliable, but only when I disable my Custom Settings from BIOS (e.g. Overclock / Undervolt Settings)

I'll try that out when I'm back at my computer then. Glad to know it's not a problem exclusive to my phone since it was hard finding anything online about this issue.

What you said there about USB-issues on Ryzen is correct. Some motherboards with some AMD-based chipset (I think X570) suffer from USB issues... ^^
For me the unreliable USB-connectivity also caused hardbricks in the past, because during the Flash over Fastboot Mode, it would just randomly disconnect.
Nowadays I've resorted to only using that one USB-port for any Data-transfer (e.g. phone or USB Drive). But only when I disable my CPU and RAM Undervolt, because if I don't do that, the USB-connection still ****s itself.
Oh and keep in mind that MTP (the protocol through which your phone + PC talk to each other), sucks ass. It's a decades old standard by Microsoft made in the 1990's and needs to be revised badly!

Do you know what usb port it is on your pc? I have a b550 gaming plus and I've included a picture of the ports on the back.

On my Asus Prime X570 Pro, in the picture below the most bottom-right USB-port. "USB 3.2 Gen 1".
Not even the neighbouring USB-port works reliably, so it is literally that only one.
Mind you, I troubleshooted the heck out of this motherboard, its BIOS settings, Windows... everything. At this point, I'm extremely sure it's a motherboard which is affected by the common AMD USB issues.

I found the special usb port on my own. Thanks for the help, I was able to put all my music on my phone without any files being skipped.

As for Wireless Transfer, I recommend SyncThing from Play Store. It's "manual" and requires set-up on PC too, but it's the most reliable, open-source, and no ads. Will flawlessly transfer 100s of Gigs or whatever.
