I checked this, and selective suspend is set to disabled.

It's Windows 10. USB 3.1 ports. I did mention I tried a different USB port. However I see your line of thinking and agree. There's something about my setup on this system that is preventing it from recognizing the phone. I don't think it's the USB port itself because first, my laptop is older...

Just got a refurb SM-G981v Galaxy S20 5G phone from Amazon. Connected it to my computer (not a laptop) to access folders as this is the way I prefer to add custom ringtones. I made sure USB settings on the phone are set to allow data transfer. Computer says "USB device not recognized - The...

I'm trying to replace it. The whole problem is I can't seem to find how to select a new custom wallpaper of one of my own images. Samsung only lets me choose their images.

Years ago, I put a personal photo into a folder on my S7 so I could use it as homescreen wallpaper. Now I want to change it, but I can't find the folder it's in when I browse the phone via a PC. Where is it?

B. Diddy No. There are four subfolders: Facebook, Google maps, Messenger and OGQ.

...so maybe Verizon blocks adding that model because of potential compatibility issues? I guess that makes sense. I'm glad it was a gift rather than a purchase!

I was given a AT&T S5 from a friend who is the original owner. I emailed AT&T for an unlock code and they sent me one. I used it per their instructions and the phone said it's unlocked.I put in my Verizon sim card from my Note 2 but it won't let me text or call. It says: "Mobile network not...
