I cannot Connect my Xiaomi 11T Mediatek phone to my Acer Aspire 7 laptop

I cannot Connect my Xiaomi 11T Mediatek soc phone to my Acer Aspire 7 A715-41G-R8GU.

I tried on Windows 11 with 3 different cable, including the OEM one on all 3 ports of the laptop.

The phone charges, but it is not recognized/seen as a device with which the laptop can communicate. Simply put, it does not show up on This PC, nor does it show up in Device Manager - I cannot click on anything, it's like it doesn't own a software in itself.

I tried on other laptops and the device connects instantly. I tried other devices on this laptop and they connect instantly.

USB debugging is on and default USB is File Transfer.

Is there the potential of a missing driver?

I tried what is said here: https://xiaomi.eu/community/threads/problems-with-updating.61957/#post-616357
but în my case the message returned when checkin for drivers is "Please Connect your device again". Like it's not there.

I tried to install/uninstall/update all the drivers in Device Manager that relate to USB/Android.

Windows is fully updated - everything is up to date.

I simply advice you that you can search Mediatek drives, instead of Qualcomm.

Kindly Thank you for the reply.



I tried MTK or Mediatek drivers for USB or universal in at least five different iterations. SP Universal, ADB for Mediatek etc.



Do you have a link for one which you think it would work?

Sorry, but I don't like Mediatek devices, and of course, I have no idea where you can find it.

@Vlad1234567890 try USB 2.0 port or hub (keyword Ryzen CPU).

 

[Vlad1234567890]

Thanks for the reply. My laptop has a usb 2.0 indeed which I tried. Everytime I do a change, I plug the cable in all the spots.

Do you refer that there might be an in compatibility between Ryzen and Mediatek? Because the two other Laptops I used were indeed with Intel CPU.

 

[MeiGuddet]

No, just an incompatibilty with Xiaomi devices and Ryzen happened sometimes. Most of the time the USB port was the culprit.
What's happening in your case - I have no clue.

Somehow managed to make it work. Used an USB adapter, which is seen by the laptop in cause, and connected my phone to the said adapter. Now I can sleep again.

For anyone going through this, take this idea into consideration.

On my part, the issue was clearly on the laptop.
