I don't have at S20 developer options like this And Aux doesn't work

[wildcathillsnaturalist]

This may work, but don't overlook the chance it could be your cable causing the problem. I spent way too much time searching for/trying solutions like this in my S20's settings, in my laptop's settings I was trying to transfer its data to, etc., before trying another cable. I should have focused on the cable first. The USB-A to USB C 6" cable I was using looked just fine, and worked perfectly for charging. But I looked around and found an old USB-A to USB MICRO cable, then connected a USB Micro to USB-C adapter I had bought back when I made the switch from a USB micro phone to a USB C one, and VOILA that worked perfectly for data/file transfer WITHOUT having to change settings. Moral of the story: just because a cable looks "ok" and works for some purposes (e.g. charging) doesn't mean it will necessarily work for your data transfer. Either cables are getting crappier or devices are getting "pickier"--maybe both. Unfortunately it may take some trial and error to find one that will work : /

If you need to watch a tutorial video just to do something as simple as transfer files, you know the UI is terrible. By the way, there's no developer options in S20 FE, and you need to swipe down and scroll down the notification, because Samsung had the brilliant idea of hiding the USB option right below things like news, emails and other notifications. I don't understand why Samsung won't let you transfer files via USB upon connection and you have to jump through hoops just to transfer a few photos. stop over-engineering something that should be simple.

Thanx for the Help . Worked Perfect Saved ton of time. Currently transferring files to S20 Ultra Nice. Disappointed to see negative comments and almost personal attacks here. Keep up the good work Thanx Again. To the Haters and those commenting on accent Try and find some good in the World

He should tell us that Developer Options is hidden unless you do the following...

Go to Settings -> About phone -> Software information -> and then tap Build number 7 times. You will see a request to enter the current PIN, password or pattern. Do so.

Thereafter Developer Options should be the last option under Settings.

I don't have developer options like you do and I do have the latest update.

[maplmage]

this works on a Galaxy S20 FE, and may work for other Samsung phones:
1) go to the home screen and swipe down from the top to see the notifications.
2) scroll all the way down to the bottom. You should see a usb option. Click on it.
3) It will give an option to transfer USB control. Click on a different option(such as PC). If it works, you may have to click on "this device". In my case, the option failed and it went back to the default option (this device). The pc should finally be able to read and write into the phone.

This will not allow me to add MP3s over the USB cable. Images and video work fine if I select "transferring images" Option. The only way to add music to my phone is to remove the SD card.

[kellypayne]

I have none of those options on my phone. Plus you ho to fast and don't acknowledge options are missing on some phones

[gpjava]

I can't find the developer options in my Galaxy S22 Ultra... How can turn on usb OTG on this phone

[nervosa]

HOW to do this permanently???
stupid samsung keeps resetting my options and it's not a simple process nor is the usb settings listed in the settings app - WHY??? stupid samsung!!

[itsoskarr]

So it did work... for a second. I got a message "to get started unlock the phone" once I did it no longer recognised it.

What is the difference between:
'Transferring Files/ Android Auto'
and
'Transferring Images'

[Awsomander]

I had this setting on and it still doesn't work. Fuck modern phones

[liileejade]

I literally don't have that configuration and I'm going crazy.

[pepepistolaxx]

every time I turn the car on and off I have to do this procedure, very annoying

[nervosa]

I did this and now i want to undo it but it won't deselect. Anyone know how to remove all selections?

[Noble_]

[zubaerhossain]
