Transfer files between phone and computer (USB)
About USB transfers
You can transfer music, photos, and other files between your phone's storage and computer (in
either direction). Use a USB cable that's capable of data transfer and isn't for charging only.
When you connect the phone and computer with the USB cable, the phone’s USB connection
type is set to charging mode, which charges your battery but prevents your computer from
seeing files on your phone. Before transferring files, change the USB connection type to allow
transfer of:
• Any type of file
• Only photos and videos
