How Do I Put My Android Phone into File Transfer Mode?

How do I change my USB to file transfer?

If not, you can manually configure the USB connection by following these steps:

  1. Open the Settings app.
  2. Choose Storage.
  3. Touch the Action Overflow icon and choose the USB Computer Connection command.
  4. Choose either Media Device (MTP) or Camera (PTP). Select Media Device (MTP) if it’s not already selected.

How do I change from charging to file transfer?

Make sure your wire supports both charging and data. If it does then on the phone go to Settings->Storage->->3 Dots-> USB Computer Connection-> Change the mode from Charging Only to MTP or USB Mass Storage. If neither of these work then make sure you have drivers installed for your device on your computer.
