Kyocera DuraXV LTE USB mode charge only

I recently activated a Kyocera DuraXV LTE moving from an LG VX8300.

1. I want to connect my Kyocera DuraXV LTE to my PC, but the phone setting #6 for USB mode is "grayed out" and says Charge only. How do I activate this function? I don't want to pull the SD card every time to copy my music over.

Thanks!

Thanks for responding. After emailing Kyocera tech support, they suggested I might need to try another USB cable. They were right. My old cable when connected to my PC charged the phone without activating the USB phone feature. The newer cable charged the phone and activated the USB feature.

My issue is resolved.

Thanks for responding so quickly, but I must not have provided you with enough information about my situation. My USB setting is Grayed Out and I cannot SELECT it. The option is dead.

Thanks

We definitely appreciate the additional information. Allow us to gather more details to be on the same page. When did you fist notice this issue with the USB setting? Did anything change with your phone before the problem started?

Incorrect. I followed all the steps until the final one, 'select USB mode', because it was grayed out and therefore unselectable. Help!

Sorry for my last post, I jumped the gun. I found another cable, tried it and lo and behold. It worked. So scratch my last comment, your solution worked. Thanks.
