Hey guys,

my Lumia 1020 struggles to connect to (any) pc.
When I connect the phone via usb, the pc will make its sound for recognizing a new device, and after 1 second the sound for "losing" the device comes.
If I keep the device connected, an "endless" loop starts between those two sounds.

I think it's probably because of a loose connection of the usb or something. But I really hope it's not. I tried to have the cable stay still and don't move it, but I can't do anything against those sounds.

When I load the device with usb there isn't such problem (for example with the loading battery sound)..

Any ideas? I can't save any pictures from the device with this problem.

I have the same problem, on all my computers (at work and at home, win7 and Win10), won't even beep or recognize at all anymore. No answers here, either. Lame .-(

Try a different cable. I had the same issue, and replaced the cable. Works great.

When you connect the cable, press it from the top and keep pressing, that's what I do. If I remove my thumb, I lose connection. I use the cable to synch music because I hate copying it over WIFI.

WM 10 TP on the 1020 works fine considering its not a retail version. Nothing there that will cripple your daily usage.

Turn it off and remove dust/lint from the USB connector with a needle if needed.

If that doesn't help, install Easy Transfer and copy everything you want wirelessly to your computer. https://forums.windowscentral.com/e?...token=T9-h-fkx
After that you might want to try a hard reset.
