A7 - No MTP connection after Pie update

[A7Frustrated]

Have been through everything, including different cables and computers. Set developer options on and USB to transfering images. Also used *#0808# to set to MTP there. Nothing worked - phone just charges.

Got on to Samsung chat to find out the MTP option has been removed. This is now an ongoing case and I am awaiting a phone call on the matter. Only purchased the phone in February and they have changed something which I based my purchase decision on. As an analogy, you wouldn't buy a car which then had a software update sometime later which meant you could only use it in daylight hours!!

Can anyone who has an A7 and has updated to the latest Android version (got mine last week), check if they can connect to their laptop / computer and confirm that there is no longer an MTP (or any other option!!) - phone merely charges.

Many thanks.

Hi thank you for your time, tried but sadly still no luck. I haven't been able to use smart switch.

In the same boat, I recall using USB debugging in the past, but it no longer works. Using Note 9, Android 10.
