I can't believe how frustrating this is.
Thank you for your help!  |
No need to do "root". Just select the 'android settings', then the 'about device'. At the bottom, you should see 'build number'. Tap 'build number' around 7 or 9 times; if doing it "slowly", a popup will say how many more taps will turn on the developer options; just do it.
Then back out & you should see 'Developer options' listed. Select the 'developer options' & scroll down to item 'select usb configurations' (looks to be the item before the "Input" section.
Tap 'select usb configuration' & select 'charging'; after it is done go back in & select MTP. This is an Android 6 bug. Sometimes I forget to do it after each time updating the CWM firmware to the 'latest' version on the Tab 7 before it was 'archived'.
I've always gotten the "Developer options" on all my tablets as a 'just in case' of need.
