How to Enable USB Debugging on Android | androidbasement - Official Site

If you want to connect an Android to your PC, or to synchronize Android with Mac, the first thing you need to do on your Android mobile / tablet is definitely to enable the USB Debugging option on Android. This is a "hidden" option in the device settings and to be visible you must first activate the "developer" mode on the device.

Activate the “developer” mode on the device, and enable the USB Debugging option, are operations that do not compromise ANYTHING: neither the warranty, nor the data saved on the device, nor the regular functioning of the Android device. These are additional options that once activated will allow you to manage your Android from your PC in a simpler and faster way, also using popular "Android Manager" programs such as MobileGO for Windows, TunesGO, AirDroid, etc ...

That's all! Now you know how to activate USB Debugging on Android regardless of the model and brand of your mobile phone: Samsung Galaxy, Huawei, Honor, LG, Sony, Nexus, OnePlus, Doogee, Cubot, Xiaomi, Motorola, Nokia, etc…

NB: In addition to activating the option DEBUG USB on your Android, in order for it to be detected by the computer (PC / Mac) when connected via USB, it is essential that an MTP (file transfer) USB connection is set on your mobile phone / tablet and that it is not "Upload Only". To check this, from your Android home screen, swipe your finger from top to bottom to open the notification window. If your mobile phone is connected to the computer via USB you can immediately see the type of connection set and possibly be able to change it.
