МТС Smart Start 2 not connecting to pc but charging
We all connect our smartphone or PC to a computer with specific goals — getting root is right, reflash or throw off photos. It also happens that MTS Smart Start 2 does not see the computer. In this article we will understand why this happens.
PC won’t connect to the MTS Smart Start 2 via USB
If you connect your smartphone to the computer via USB, and the computer does not respond, you may have the following problem:
- The most common is a crash in Windows OS, download and install here this fix (patch);
- The cable has puncture damage, maybe a cat gnawed it yesterday;
- Damaged USB socket on the phone or PC;
- The drivers for Windows have flown, put the patch on the link above and try to install the drivers again;
- In Android 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9.0 Pie, 8.0, 7.1, 6, when connected to a PC, the “Charging only” function is selected.
What to do?
As you can see, there are 2 types of problems — physical and software. With the physical, everything is simple — if the phone is charging via PC, then everything works. With software — it is better to immediately install the patch for Windows, the one recommended above.
Problem number 5 is solved simply — when connecting the device to a PC, select the connection type — “File Transfer”. Everything.
If the PC sees your phone every other time, most likely you have a torn USB cable, replace it and preferably not with the cheapest $ 0.3 cord from Aliexpress (just throw money away), buy something mediocre, but there is little sense in chasing the expensive one. Red cable price — 1.5 dollars.
If nothing helps at all, you can get confused and upload photos to a computer via Whatsapp / Telegram and other messengers, but it will take a very long time and the photos will be compressed in quality, + while the files are downloaded, while they are downloaded to the PC — double work and Sisyphus labor.
