the bug is when i try connecting various USB Cables(including the original Motorola USB Cable) for file transfer, there are no notifications or popup to indicate to be able to use file transfer(USB MTP file transfer). Also I did put my device on “Always allow USB connections” mode and I even put “File Transfer” using Developer Setting and there are no popups or notifications. And i could not do file transfer using USB Cables.
Interestingly, the cables works normally for charging my device.
Hope this help and will provide logs if needed.
Thank you in advance
Step-by-step reproduction of the issue:
Connect USB Cable to the device(as you would in normal USB File transfer).
Make sure you put device on “Always allow USB connections” mode and even put “File Transfer” using Developer Setting.
You’ll notice that there are no Notifications or Popups to indicate File Transfer and cannot do File Transfer using USB Cables(i’ve tried with various Cables and Linux/Windows PCs(Ubuntu, Linuxmint, Windows 10, Windows 11).
Expected behaviour: Should work normally as intended
i did all that but it doesn’t work, and interestingly it gets more complicated than this issue, i.e., now the android debug bridge & fastbootd wont work the only thing work is fastboot similar to this article
note:
1. im on stock android now i can’t flash iodeOS or any other ROMs anymore not even a GSI since i cannot use ADB and fastboot dynamic
2. if it is a cable problem i shouldn’t be able to be on fastboot mode/bootloader mode but interestingly i am.
Your description is a common one (fastbootD not working only fastboot) when on Windows and not having the correct USB drivers installed. At least this is my best understanding of how people have been stuck before.
