Android Central Question

Until recently I could plug my S7 (model SM-G930W8) into my PC and transfer files. Now the PC does not recognize my phone (it DOES recognize my Samsung Tablet). Tried various OTG cables with the same result. Phone will charge but no USB connection. Downloaded OTG Troubleshooter app and it indicates no OTG Detected and No USB Device Detected in Android. I have checked under Developer Options and USB configuration indicates Media Transfer Protocol). Can someone help?

The only thing common in all of that is the USB connector in the phone - it has to be replaced. (It has 2 charging wires and 2 data wires, so it could very well be charging if one of the data contacts isn't making contact - and that would be inside the phone. And with no data connection visible, no OTG notification.)
