Hi all
I have set up my phone from my p30 pro to the new black shark 4 pro, when setting up, it would not let me do it via cable (no option for it), only wifi, but also would not copy over photos, saying that they are saved in my google account (that they are)
but i would like to get them onto the phones storage around 5000 photos.
in my p30 of i plug in a type c cable and then into another phone, it come up with a option to transfer files/pictures/charge etc. but when I plug the BS4p in, it does not give me any options at all, all it does is charge.
what am i doing wrong please?
or how can I get my pictures onto the phone storage?
many thanks
Small update, I enabled usb debugging on the black shark, and when I connect it to a pc it now connects to it.
But when I connect the black shark to my old p30 pro as I want to transfer photos over, the p30 comes up with the USB options on the screen, but the black shark does nothing.
What could be wrong please, or what is the fastest way to transfer 5000 photos from one phone to another please?

IF so can you help me on fixing this situatioN? please!!? thanks a bunch guys

I know this problem to good -I guess a hardware fault. I had this with my first and now with the second TP2 too.
For my guess the USB connector-hole (or how you call it in english) is too big! If I place the TP2 in a dockings station everything is fine -sync no problem.
If I try it with only connection by cable -not a hope.
If you buy I docking station I guess the problem could be solved
I had this with my 1st Tilt 2, nothing I tried worked. I had to sync/move files via BT USB. It was inexpensive (made by ASUS) at $14 and very low profile. Believe it or not, it worked really well, even for huge RHODIMG files when I wanted to flash a new ROM. The bigger the file, the longer it took, but it *did* work.
Recently, I got a great deal on a used, mint condition, Tilt 2 with lots of accessories, including an Otterbox, for $150 shipped, and my USB syncing is working again. Definitely a better deal than the $90-$275 estimate HTC gave me to repair the USB.
Hope you get it sorted, but it's been a common problem with this phone. Seems the pins inside are really delicate.
EDIT: Hey I just noticed we all have a "thanks meters" now... Schweet!

dang is there any other way i can fix thiss??
Just had my T-MO Vario V replaced for this very thing. As my replacement started acting up as well with the same error, I searched again on the web and found that it might also be a faulty usb cable or the fact that you connect your phone via a hub rather than directly to a mainboard port.
I use another cable now connected to a mainboard port and guess what (and keep your fingers crossed) for the moment it's working.
Good luck!

Im using a T-mobile (SIM Unlocked) TP2 from Singapore. Same thing here, when plugged to the PC via USB (the one that came with the phone) it charges but doesnt show the actual syncing with ActiveSync 4.5. I used to have an old Treo 750 that synced just fine (though TP2 definitely has a much much better PC connector than the Treo).
One thing I noticed is even though ActiveSync is not popping up for automatic syncing, It always show in the taskbar as connected. I can even navigate to my TP2 in Explorer & transfer files to & from my PC via USB. My question is, is there a way for ActiveSync window to really come up whenever I plug my TP2 in?

Yes it is in the device setting in active sync ...
I also tried every possible settings with Activesync options in the phone but it still doesn't show the actual ActiveSync window when I plug my TP2 via USB though it connects & via the taskbar icon & still explorable in windows explorer. I just want to have that peace of mind that I can fully back up using Activesync aside from using other 3rd party backup tools before I start playing with different ROMs out there.
first check the "usb to PC" settings in setting menu on the phone, try unchecking "enable faster data sync" see if this makes a difference .
if not then try going into your control panel on your computer, and use "add and remove programs" and remove active sync , then re-install it , also change the usb cable if you have another one laying around..something that will make a difference..
"enable faster data sync" uncheck this and it should works.
I had same problem...
Try entering bootloader mode and plug it in and see if windows detects the device if it does then try clicking on start on your PC, then right click on my computer, then click manage.
When computer management opens click on device manager then click the + to the left of usb devices.
click on each usb controller you find and press delete and uninstall each one until none are left. Then restart the pc and unplug the phone, soft reset the phone. Wait until windows restarts and AFTER it has finished installing ALL drivers for your usb controllers plug the phone back in and see if that fixes the problem.
I just thought as well, try plugging the usb lead into a different usb port, that way windows will treat the phone as a new device
My friend dropped his note 2, and broke the screen so that it doesn't function at all anymore. I'm trying to help him recover his pictures from his phone, because he never made backups of them, and it's his pictures of his kids. The phone still works, because theringtone still goes off, and still plays the sound when it's connected to a charger.
His phone is bone stock, and non rooted. I installed the drivers, and connected it to a laptop, but can't retrieve any files. The phoneshows up in explorerer but shows the storage as completely empty. Not even icons for folders. Of course, he didn't use an sd card either. In this situation, I can't go into the phone and change settings with the busted screen, and can't get anything to show up in explorer. He got lucky and got asurion to give him a note 3 as a replacement, but will have to send back the note. Is there anyway to force the files off, or is he SOL?
If there is no response when you connect it to a windows 7 pc (the drivers are built in) you're out of luck. A possibility is Samsung Kies because that program will make an outomatic backup. Sounds like the USB port took damage too.
If you really want to work hard you can swap his main board into a working phone.

It was odd because it registered in explorer as connected to usb, but showed no files or folders. Since he's the only person on earth that didn't use an sd card, I threw some files on an empty and put it in his phone, and that didn't show up either. So I'm guessing it's a lost cause? He has to send it back to asurion, so I can't take it apart.
There is two USB modes: media and storage. Sounds like storage.
Old thread, I know. The phone must be dusty now and the kids grown up. The cheapest solution to this is to get an MHL cable and hook it up to your TV. Use the stylus as your mouse and copy all files to an SD card.
This issue on my phone was due to screen security lock.
I'm thinking about print some stuff on my phone to view at my buddy's house. He doesn't have a "smart tv" and doesn't have the Internet. His TV does have a USB port, so maybe I could plug my phone in as a flash drive.
I'm trying to find a way to set my phone so that when I plug it in to his TV as a flash drive, only 1 folder (with the stuff that I want to view over there) shows up.
I don't want to plug my phone in and then have to sort through all my stuff on his TV in a room full of people.
Do any of you guys and gals know how to do this?
So honestly I really don't know what happened but my LCD is cracked- rending my phone more or less useless. I have just transferred my internal memory to my PC via USB, but I don't know if my text messages are included in that/what the file name is if it was part of my internal memory. Thoughts or suggestions? I have tried downloading a mirroring program but I need to log in on my device, and as I cant use the device.... well that's pretty self explanatory.
You Need a OTG Cable (Micro USB OTG to USB 2.0 Adapter)

Since no one answered I will post what I did to get my information back.
My screen was unusable (touch wise) but I could see it fine. I bought one of these adapters

I plugged a USB mouse into this cable and a usb cursor appeared on my screen, allowing me to unlock my phone and operate it with the mouse, so I was able to back up whatever info I needed and transferred it via wifi to my new phone.
Hello!
My computers won't recognize my P1.
They recognize my HTC One M8 and Huawei P8 instantly, no drivers needed, but when it comes to the P1, nothing. (the cable is charging the phone, but doesn't offer any soft of option to change USB setting)
I can't even access the options to change USB connection type (if there is such a thing in the settings).
