Connecting the phone fly to the computer via usb. Fly phones

Modern smartphones no longer require a PC connection. In the first half of the 2000s, it was possible to install something new on a communicator or smartphone only using a PC. And also a computer in those days was required for serious settings of a mobile device. Now you can connect Android to a computer without much difficulty, but this action has become extremely rare. And yet, we will tell you how to connect your phone to a PC.

There is one wired and many wireless connection methods. The first one is the easiest, but there are a lot of problems with it. Sometimes the computer does not see the device, which causes natural hysteria in the user. In this article, we will try to help in just such a case.

If you connected your smartphone to the computer using a wire, but the desktop operating system does not react to this in any way, then you need to take a few simple steps:

  • Replace USB cable. The fact is that some wires serve only for the transmission of energy - they are simply not able to work with the information flow. This is especially true for cables purchased from Chinese online stores.
  • Try plugging the wire into a different USB port. It has been noted that high-speed USB 3.0 ports sometimes do not recognize some devices connected to them. Therefore, try connecting the device to an old USB 2.0 port.
  • Try connecting your gadget to another computer. It is desirable that it work with a different version of the operating system. If such a problem is observed there, then something happened to the microUSB connector or some other components. Unfortunately, there is nothing we can do to help in this matter - you will need to repair your smartphone.

Other wired connection problems

Not everyone suspects this, but an unlocked device cannot be synchronized with a PC. If you decide to connect Android to your computer via USB, then first enter the code, draw a pattern or provide your fingerprint. Of course, this does not apply to those devices that do not have a secure lock.

Certain problems are also caused by connecting via USB to a computer with operating system Windows XP. At the time of its popularity, no touchscreen smartphones existed, and therefore, by default, the corresponding drivers are not built into it. You can fix the situation by downloading the Media Transfer Protocol (MTP)

On any other computer, you may also need to install a driver. It is usually installed automatically the first time you connect via USB. But there are also exceptions when something interferes with the system. If you have such a case, then go to " Device Manager". In the list you will see your device, while unnamed, marked with a yellow exclamation mark. Right-click on it by selecting the item " Refresh". Then follow the tips on the pop-up menu. So you can automatically search for the driver in the appropriate Microsoft database or install the driver stored on the PC (then you first need to download it from the manufacturer's official website).

The activated mode “ USB modem". Disconnected along the path " Settings» - « Wireless networks » - « Yet» - « Modem mode».

It should be noted that smartphones have several modes wired connection to the PC. It is possible that you accidentally chose one that is not supported by your computer. You can change the mode by clicking on the corresponding notification (it is always displayed when the device is connected to a PC). You need to enable MTP (Media Device) mode.

Finally, enabling USB debugging may help in some cases. To do this, follow these steps:

Step 1. Open the section " Settings"And find the item" For developers».

Step 2. In this subsection, activate the checkbox of the item " USB debugging».

Connecting to a computer via Wi-Fi

There are several ways to connect Android to PC without using a cable. The easiest way to do this is to use Wi-Fi technology... Of course, your apartment should have a router, because the connection will be carried out with its help.

In theory, synchronization can be done with built-in means, but this path is too long and complicated. Therefore, we recommend that you use Airdroid or some other similar application. Let's use his example to figure out how to connect to a PC over the air:

1. Install and run Airdroid.

2. At the first start, you can register an account or press the discreet button " Login later».

3. Next, the program will offer to send all incoming notifications to the computer. Click the " Accept". In some cases, you will be additionally transferred to the appropriate section of the settings, where you need to check the box next to the Airdroid notification mirroring service.

4. Then you can transfer files to your computer, record the screen, take screenshots and perform other actions. On a PC, for this you need to open a browser and go to the address displayed in the top line of the application.

5. If you sign up for an account, you can sync by going to a simpler URL: web.airdroid.com.

6. If you want to end the connection, then go to the application and click on the button " Disconnect". You can also click on the button in the browser window " Log off", Then confirming their actions.

Sooner or later the moment comes when you need to connect your phone to your PC. For example, to reset music, documents, movies, or update the firmware. There are several ways to do this, but the most versatile and reliable is through a USB cable. Despite the fact that everything seems simple, sometimes difficulties arise with pairing: the gadget is not detected by the operating room Windows system or only charging is working and file transfer is not available. So that you do not have any problems in the future, we will figure out how to connect the phone to the computer correctly in order to avoid possible troubles. In addition, we will consider ways to solve popular problems that may arise.

How do I connect my phone to a computer using a USB cable?

Transferring documents using a cable is the best option if you need to send a large amount of data in a short period of time, since the transfer via Wi-Fi, although more convenient, is slower.

Remember, try to use the standard cord that came with the kit to avoid unexpected conflicts and problems.

Connection procedure:

  • insert the cable into the connector of the phone, then the other end to the computer;

Attention! If this is your first time connecting the device to a PC, Windows will start downloading the drivers, which will take from one to ten minutes. Be patient, you can look at the progress of the installation through the pop-up window that appears when connected. Usually the installation goes without problems, but sometimes it fails and not all drivers are downloaded. How to deal with this, read below in a separate paragraph.

  • after processing the drivers, the operating system will offer to choose what to do with the new device;
  • the device is now displayed in the list of portable devices;
  • to see them, open "My Computer", then click on the icon with the name of your phone model, and you will be taken to the root directory (if a memory card is installed, then first you need to choose what to work with: with it or the built-in storage).

The next time the components will not be loaded for compatibility. Therefore, the smartphone will be identified immediately.

Attention! If something does not work out, restart your mobile phone, PC, and then try again to do the manipulations described above.

Phone setup

There are several parameters in Android that affect computer connectivity. Sometimes the user selects or changes something wrong, but it happens that the connected device works in the wrong connection mode by default.

USB connection parameters

Almost all modern mobile phones can connect to a computer in different modes. Often the default is the "Charging mode" parameter, that is, when you insert the cord into the port of the system unit and the phone jack, the second starts charging, and does not open access to the storage. But this is easy to fix, for this you need:

  • swipe the "shutter" down and find the item "Charging via USB";
  • Tap on it, select "File Transfer" (MTP).

The device will reorient itself to transfer files, and you can copy them, move them, create folders, etc.

USB Debugging Manipulation

Switching debug sometimes helps. To find it, you need to unlock the menu "For Developers", for this go to "Settings" - "About phone" and seven times in a row click on "Build number".

Attention! In MIUI open "Settings" - "About device", seven times click on "MIUI version".

Return to the main menu, open the menu that appears, located at the very bottom. Scroll down a bit until you come across USB Debugging. By default, it is disabled, enable it, it may help if the connection to the computer is not established in any way.

You can also try disabling it if it is initially active. Sometimes it helps.

Why can't my computer see my phone when connected via USB?

Let's take a quick look at the main interference that can arise if you decide to connect your phone to your computer via a USB cable.

Reason # 1. Hardware faults

Often the cable that you connect breaks somewhere inside, so the contact "does not go". Make sure the cord is in good working order, try charging your phone with it through an outlet. If the current goes, then the cable is working, the port of the device is also. However, if damage is found, replace the cord with a new original or equivalent in quality that will be compatible with the phone.

Insert the USB flash drive into the connector of the computer, if it is detected - the socket in the PC is also in order. If not, test the rest of the slots and use a working one.

Reason # 2. Old operating system

Windows XP owners are not always able to seamlessly upload files to a smartphone due to the lack of necessary components. You can download them from the link www.microsoft.com/en-US/download/details.aspx?id=19153 from the official Microsoft website. After installation, everything should work if the problem was only this.

Reason number 3. Failed to install device driver

This is one of the most annoying reasons, but fixing it is not as difficult as it might seem. Let's get started! Do the following:


When the process is complete, the phone should recognize your smartphone.

Reason # 4. Lack of Universal Adb Driver

This driver is also very important and is responsible for pairing. Download it from the link adb.clockworkmod.com... The component will help if you cannot download or install the drivers for your phone or tablet. It is designed for the functioning of the Android Debug Bridge, as well as all programs for sync android from a PC. Very often, installing it helps to solve problems that arise when you try to connect your phone to a computer via USB.

There is no particular difficulty in connecting and fixing problems, and often the connection goes well by itself. However, if you encounter problems, then first take the simplest steps to eliminate them, and then move on to more complex ones.

In this article, we will analyze the main questions that arise when buying Fly phones: how to connect fly to a computer, to the Internet and how to connect to Wi-Fi networks... In general, it can be noted that Fly not too different from other manufacturers' models based on Android OS. Therefore, their settings are quite standard, which will make it easier to use a phone from another brand in the future if you want to change it over time.

Connecting a smartphone to a computer

To synchronize your smartphone with a computer, you need a complete USB cable and a CD-ROM with software... The software is supplied on disks of reduced format, which is one and a half times smaller than usual. For such discs, a special recess is made in the center of the drive tray.

  1. Insert the software disc into the drive. Autorun will turn on and the installation dialog will appear;
  2. Install the driver following the instructions on the screen;
  3. Install Fly Phone Suite;
  4. Connect your phone with via USB-cable. The connection menu appears on the phone screen. Select the COM port option;
  5. The Found New Hardware Wizard will open on your computer;
  6. Follow the instructions on the screen;
  7. Disconnect your phone and restart your computer;
  8. After restarting, select from the list the COM port number assigned during the driver installation;
  9. Wait for the connection status to update to Connected.

How to connect fly to the Internet

To connect to the Internet on your smartphone, first of all, you need to request the WAP / GPRS settings from your cellular operator... Call support and they will tell you how to get automatic settings for your phone. Then just connect the settings sent to you in the message.

There is also an option manual setting The Internet. Let's consider an example of Internet connection from a mobile operator Beeline.

  1. Go to Menu-Settings-Connection profile settings;
  2. Check for the “Beeline Internet” profile. If it is missing, it must be added;
  3. When adding a new profile, enter the beeline login and password, as the name of the access point internet.beeline.ru, authentication type - PAP, data channel - GPRS;
  4. Enter the address http://wap.beeline.ru/ in your browser. If the settings were done correctly, you will be loaded start page Beeline.

As for the rest of the operators, the algorithm of actions will be the same as described above. Only the parameters you enter will differ. They can also be found in the support service or on the operator's official website on the Internet. In addition, you can contact your nearest cellular salon, where all the necessary settings will be made to you for a fee.

Wi-Fi connection

You can connect to the created wireless network as follows:

  1. Turn on Wi-Fi in Settings - Wireless networks;
  2. You will see a list of available networks. Select the network you need;
  3. If this network is not blocked, the connection will be established automatically. Otherwise, you will be required to enter a password;
  4. Going to Wi-Fi settings, you can fine-tune the wireless connection.

Many users, when trying to connect a phone to a computer using a USB cable, are faced with the fact that the computer does not recognize the connected gadget. The connected device is charging, while there is no access to the smartphone itself and its internal content. I also encountered this synchronization problem, and in this article I will tell you why the computer does not see the phone via USB, and I will also share various methods for solving this issue.

The whole complex of reasons for the problem that the PC does not see the smartphone through the USB cable, I would divide it into hardware and software, and below I will list each of them, in parallel providing instructions on how to fix it. But before using the methods I have indicated, try restarting your computer and smartphone - this does not help as rarely as it seems. This problem mainly occurs with devices from Samsung, Lenovo, HTC, LG and Fly.

So why does the computer not see the phone via USB, but is charging - hardware reasons

1. Damaged cableUSB. It often happens that the cause of this dysfunction is damage to the USB cable itself. Cables of little-known or "non-name" manufacturers do not have a large margin of safety, and can fail literally in a couple of months from the beginning of operation, and as a result, the computer will not detect the connected phone.

In addition, even the most reliable cables from global brands are susceptible to stochastic damage - they can be accidentally damaged during use, can be chewed by pets or spoiled by children. Therefore, first of all, inspect your USB cable for the likelihood of mechanical damage, and, if the external cable is intact, try using it to connect your device to another computer. If the device is not recognized on another PC, try replacing the cord.

2. Damaged portUSBon the computer. The USB ports used in a computer are also susceptible to various mechanical damage, including damage to the USB controller, and south bridge motherboard... Try to insert the cable into a different USB port, but if this does not help to fix the connection of the phone to the PC, follow the further tips.

3. Damaged cable jack on the phone. Has water entered the socket of the smartphone or is it damaged? If so, then it needs to be replaced.

4. Try removing the battery. According to the reviews of some users, who also had a problem with the fact that the computer did not see the phone through the US-BI, removing the battery from the smartphone helped.

Turn off the battery, pull the battery out of it for a few seconds, then put it back, and turn your device back on.

If nothing helps you fix this problem then describe your situation. What has already been done by you, and what is happening to your Android device at USB connection gadget to PC in the comments, I will try to help not only me, but also everyone who has encountered this problem.

The computer does not see the phone via USB - software reasons

After describing the hardware reasons, we will list the main programmatic reasons if your computer still does not recognize cellular telephone connected with USB cable, follow the further instructions.

1. We work with the settings.We go into the settings of our device, select "Memory" there, click on the three dots at the top (Properties), select "USB-connection to a computer" and put a checkmark in front of "Media device" (" USB stick"). If you have a checkmark next to using USB as a modem, uncheck it.

The PC must be enabled windows service Update (to download drivers for your phone) and a new device detection service. Remember to unlock your phone when connected to your computer, this is important.

If you are a conservative and have Windows XP, download the MTP (Media Transfer protocol) for XP from the Microsoft website and install it on your computer.

2. If your drivers have crashedUSB- ports, the computer may not see the phone.If the drivers for the USB ports are dysfunctional, the latter simply stop working. To fix this problem, install USB drivers from the "native" driver disk to your PC's motherboard, or download the latest drivers from the motherboard manufacturer's website.

Also, due to some reason, power may be turned off for a number of ports.

3. The device drivers have flown. Go to "Device Manager" and see if there is an interrogative or exclamation mark in the item "Portable devices".

Check if your device is there and make sure it is working properly by right clicking on it and clicking Properties. If it is not there, or you have doubts, uninstall the driver, disconnect the phone from the computer, and then turn it back on, and let the system install the driver again. This can help solve the problem with the fact that the smartphone does not connect via USB to the computer.

Also, it will not be superfluous to enter the website of the manufacturer of your smartphone and download the latest drivers for it to your PC (for example, there is a special software for Samsung Samsung kies).

4. Installing the updateKB3010081 (KB3099229). Windows 10 owners may need to install update KB3010081, which is responsible for working with Windows Media Player. This player is directly related to the normal operation of the MTP (Media Transfer Protocol) service, so download and install these updates.

Also common cause there may be an unreliable build of the OS itself on a PC. Only the rearrangement of Windows to a more working version will help here.

5. Custom firmware is inoperative. The desire of many fans to play with the firmware for their Android device can do them a disservice in the form of the device's failure to work normally with the computer. Try to restore standard firmware or recover from a backup (if available).

There are no drivers for the phone on the computer

Although, usually, a computer with the latest OS detects and sees a smartphone via USB without problems, the opposite cases can also be observed. Try to look for a driver for your smartphone on the network, sometimes a driver for similar models of this brand may come up.

The phone may not be recognized by the computer due to viruses

It is trite, but all kinds of virus programs can block work with external mobile devices. Try to scan your computer with Dr. Web CureIt!, in some cases this may help.

If the problem of detecting the mobile device by the computer is not resolved, reset the settings

If, until now, your computer does not see the phone via USB, resetting the smartphone settings using Hard Reset... Go to the settings of your phone, select the menu item " Backup", And in it select" Reset data ".

But I immediately warn you that you will lose your files and settings located in internal memory phone (the files on the SD card will remain intact), so this item should only be used as a last resort!

Conclusion

As you can see, problems with the lack of visibility of the connected phone on the PC can be of both software and hardware nature, and there are a considerable number of such problematic factors. I would advise you to first pay attention to the possible mechanical damage in the cable and device, and only then switch to program methods.

In many cases, the usual restart of the smartphone (temporary removal of the battery), as well as working with the USB connection settings of the phone, can help. If all of the above does not help and the computer does not see the phone via USB, but is charging, then you may need to contact a qualified service center.

P.S. For fans of visual demonstrations, I present a video on the issue:

There are many reasons why the computer does not see the smartphone. Most often this happens due to the activation of any other connection mode, except for the USB drive. Either it happens due to missing or conflicting drivers. Less commonly, the cause may be various malfunctions in the equipment.

This material presents solutions to the most common problems that arise when connecting a mobile device to a PC via USB. For convenience, all tips are categorized by importance.

Smartphone is not detected as external storage

Note:smartphone must be turned on if locked graphic key- you need to unlock!

The very first and most obvious action is to let the computer understand in which mode the device is connected. If the smartphone is simply charging when the cable is connected, it may be connected in charging mode, or as a media player. If you are using an Android device, you need to activate developer mode, and then enable USB debugging.

For instructions on activating developer mode and USB debugging, see this video.

When everything is done, at the next reconnection, pay attention to the display and the notification shade in the smartphone. A notification should appear in which you must select the "Enable USB storage" item.


If you use a smartphone with a different OS, everything is the same. In most cases, for the device to be recognized as external storage, you must select the correct connection type.

One more point: check if the tethering mode is activated in the mobile device. We go into the network parameters settings, and if the modem is activated, turn it off.

The computer does not respond at all

It is advisable to check the serviceability of the components as early as possible to save your own time. If, when connecting, you do not hear a characteristic signal, the charge indicator does not flash on the smartphone, the backlight does not activate, no pop-up notifications appear - we are trying to temporarily change the equipment.

Steps to be taken:

  1. We check the USB cable for serviceability. We just use a different work cable, and that's it.
  2. We connect to other connectors. For inoperable USB port you can refer only if no "YUSB" peripherals at all connect to them: mice, keyboards, flash drives, etc.
  3. We are trying to connect a smartphone via USB to another system unit or laptop. If it worked, we look for problems with the drivers and operating system on our PC.

Software problems

Let's say the computer responds to the machine, but a notification is displayed on the taskbar that the driver installation has failed. This indicates the need to install the "correct" USB drivers on the PC.

Often universal drivers can be downloaded from the manufacturer's website. For example, the official websites of Samsung and LG have special sections where you can download a driver that will fit all Samsung and LG models, respectively.

If you have connected many devices from different manufacturers their drivers may be conflicting. Try to remove the unnecessary ones, and reinstall the necessary ones. Do not forget to restart your PC (you can do the phone at the same time).

If nothing helps at all

In the event that after executionabsolutely all recommendations the computer does not see the smartphone, it cannot be ruled out that the USB connector on the smartphone is faulty. This problem cannot be solved independently without special skills and certain equipment. Must be carried mobile device to the service center, or to the workshop, where the USB will be re-soldered.
