Section 7: Connections

Connecting to a Computer

Connect your device to a computer to transfer data between
your device and the computer. Use the USB cable that comes
with your device, or use one of the pre-loaded apps on your
device to connect wirelessly.
Transferring Data
Connect your device to a computer, via USB cable, to transfer
data as a Media device using MTP (Media Transfer Protocol),
or as a Camera using PTP (Photo Transfer Protocol).
1. Attach your device to the computer with a USB data
cable. Your device recognizes the connection as the
last connection method you used, and displays a
connection alert in the Status bar and Notifications.
2. From the Home screen, sweep your finger downward
to display Notifications, then touch the alert.
Note: Your phone supports USB 3.0 and USB 2.0, and includes
a USB 3.0 cable for higher data transfer speeds when
connected to another USB 3.0 device. You can also use
USB 2.0 cables (not included) to charge and connect
your phone.
3. Select a connection method:
• Media device (MTP): Transfer media files with Windows, or
using Android file transfer on a Mac (see
filetransfer).
• Camera (PTP): Transfer photos using camera software, and
transfer files to computers that do not support MTP.
4. On your computer, choose a method for accessing your
device. Available options depend on the programs
installed on your computer.
5. Transfer files to the memory card. When finished, you
can disconnect the USB cable.
