my s3 stopped working as a media device. before it is still working. now it only charges when connected to any other pc. how can i fix this? thank you
 
1) Make sure you're using a USB cable that supports data - some, like the nes that come with Bluetooth headsets, only supply power. There are no data wires.

2) If you're using the original cable, try another cable from a Samsung phone. Your cab;e might have gone bad.

3) Your microUSB port could be broken.

4) Make sure that plugging another Samsung phone into that computer works. The driver may have become corrupted.
