a21 operation question

i had to get this phone from tracfone because my lg k20 was going out of service for 3g. anyway every time i plug it into the pc usb i get a popup on the phone that makes me allow usb connection. on the lg i could select a checkbox to just let that happen automatically every time i hooked the phone to the pc.

does anyone know how to make the a21 so i can select a checkbox to get the phone to allow usb connections every time i plug it into the pc?

with the lg i had 4 options and i chose file transfer but i have not yet found that option on the a21. i'm sure hoping this is an option that i have not yet found and can select to save time when i plug the phone into the pc. i plug it in often so i can upload phots to there respective folders so i can attach to emails for when i send them out as questions or relies to people.

if this is possible maybe someone here can direct me to the solution or a YT that shows how to get it set up.

thanks.

i think i figured it out. i had to go into developer mode and click on usb options and there i had the choice to click a box. i picked file transfer and it worked. now to see if it keeps working.

IT will work almost every time, since Developer mode is perament :)

thanks, i tried it again later and it worked. now to see if i can figure out how to get my photos from google to my sd card. when i went thru the google suggestions i did not have the correct procedure to get the photos from google to my phone, let alone copy them to the sd card.
