Hi,
My daughter has a new smartphone, a Samsung S8. She want to transfer files to it, but it's not working. Plugging in the phone in her laptop and setting the phone's USB-properties to "file transfer" results in the phone being seen. Unfortunately, from there on it fails. No way to access the phone.
Did your daughter use to own an iPhone? I ask, because cabling your android to any computer is virtually unheard of, but its an old Apple requirement. Even if you do cable it, it often ends up being an MTP connection only.
Why? I use the USB cable pretty often for transferring files and it simply works, with several Android devices of different brands. After all, WiFi is often very slow. - -- Cheers, Carlos E. R.
