I am not new using Android phones, in fact Samsung Galaxy S4 is the 3rd Android phone I have. I had Galaxy Note 1 and 2 before and backing up the photos and videos is just a piece of cake(Just plug the thing on your pc and then it will automatically detect it and connect as a normal USB device) . Now I’ve got my S4 and run out of memory I needed to backup my photos and videos before freeing up space, I was surprised. When I plugged it on my pc, it was not even get detected, I tried using 5 different USB’s and none of them connected my S4 to the PC. I searched the net and found one that helped me connect android phone to pc and this is how.
