    I have a Xiaomi Redmi 4A phone and a computer with Windows 10. I wanted to connect the phone to the computer, but it cannot be found in the device manager or in "my computer". After connecting another phone with the same cable and the same USB, the phone was found. I have development options enabled, USB debugging. I noticed that when I go to phone options -> Wireless & Mobile networks -> More, the "USB Tethering" option is grayed out (blocked). I have the MiPcSuite application on my computer, but it also does not detect my phone. I tried to connect the phone to another computer but the result is the same.

    If the system does not try to install the drivers, I bet either a damaged socket or the "charging only" option in the USB connection settings. But with debugging turned on, it should appear in the manager as "adb interface" anyway ...

    I was able to change the option to MTP, but after restarting the phone it automatically changed to charging again. After that, the transfer still doesn't work

    After connecting to the computer from the top bar, you have the choice of loading and transferring files?

    It is normal to return to "charge only". If the connection mode selection menu does not activate after connecting to the computer, most likely you have, as I said, a damaged socket, or worse - one of the electronics. Probably in all Xiaomi USB is led out on a separate board, there is a chance that it is enough to replace only this element.

    After taking the phone to the service, it turned out that the USB board is functional and there is nothing wrong with it. The service technician suggested resetting the phone, which I had already done before that. I have no idea what is happening to my phone. If not plaque, what could be the reason?

    Nothing appears in the manager at all? How did the service say that the USB module was functional?

    Okay, I'm closing the topic. Two service technicians after replacing the usb socket, thethering still did not work. I was thinking about replacing my phone anyway, so I bought the Huawei P10 Lite on Wednesday
