Until recently, I frequently used my Motorola Defy+ (running stock Gingerbread) for USB tethering and data transfer to a PC. But now whenever I connect the phone to a PC, the phone detects the connection as "AC", and the PC doesn't see the phone. I've tried several different USB cables (from different manufacturers), and two different PCs (running Windows and Linux), but the phone always thinks it's an AC charging connection. I'm also worried I might damage the PC, as I know the phone is supposed to draw more current from an AC charger than from a computer. Is this problem likely to be caused by a hardware fault in the phone's USB port, or by an Android settings problem? I've googled extensively and can't find anybody else with the same problem, though many users have the opposite problem (AC chargers being recognised as USB).
