Not sure what you were saying there, but I've gone through everything that's been suggested, and everything I can think of. For example, last night after posting my last msg, I searched manually thru the system files on my phone & discovered a boatload of mtp files! Why they didn't come up when...

I loved this option! Dev mode was already enabled, so 7 taps on build # did nothing & I didn't remember that was how I'd activated it so long ago. I searched for MTP & media transfer protocol both, but neither came up in settings. However, I found an option under Accts & Backup for external...

Like you, I plugged in my phone to my laptop, but unlike you, it wouldn't recognize my laptop. Perhaps that was because it's Linux - I hadn't considered that possibility.

This is for transferring Galaxy to Galaxy. No option to transfer from Galaxy to laptop or other brand of phone. But thanks for the suggestion. This one also wants a LOT of permissions, forced an update before it would let me move fw even tho it was updated only a couple of weeks ago, and I've...

Hello, I just re-set my Galaxy tab to factory tablet to give to my grandson. When I try to connect to my modem, the connection is "saved" but it can't connect. I am certain I am using/typing the right password. I just want to log in to Google Play and get him some game apps before he goes home...

Hello, I'm new to Android and to KIES. Will someone please explain to me why my wifi icon in the tray is sometimes blue and sometimes grey? And would this have anything to do with syncing issues?
