MAJOR ISSUE: USB default settings MAJOR issue.

[SataruGojoo]

I think I have found amajor Issue in Samsung devices, which should be fixeda.s.a.p.

 So, Today... I Connected my phone with my PC usingUSB cable and I come to know that.. as soon as Iunlocked the phone... the phone (My Samsung A34 5G) have givenfull access of Internal Storage to the PC, Which should not be done..This Is Bad, Very very Bad.

i.e. Whenever you connect to PC usingUSB cable the option "Use USB for:" automatically get selected to "Transferring files/Android Auto" bydefault! [Which is avery very bad thing]

 Let's assume, You are in public and your phone's battery is running low and you use thepublic Charging ports available in almost every airports, railway station etc... so as soon as you plug theusb cable and your phone isunlocked..any one(who have access to that usb socket)can access your Phone's internal storage and phone!

 As there is so much DATA FISHING going on.. youcan't be such Guardless in public or Home or anywhere in this Universe.

Solution: I have a solution for this (Not my idea actually. Other phone manufacturers are using this solution in their phones already).

The solution is.. TheDefault Selection should be changed to "Charging phone only" 

And this can be done by SAMSUNG by providing a minor Software Update to All the devices/Phones.

After that, Whenever you/we will connect our phone to a USB port the Phone willCharge Only, It will not give Access of Internal Storage until you/we give it manually. 

Don't compromise with Privacy and Security.

Thank you for reading, Please raise the issue from your end too, If you think I'm right.

Afai'remember' the 1st time I had connected my S21fe to my laptop it asked me if I wanted to permit the laptop to access the internal data or not.

[SataruGojoo]

So, If you connect your phone with the PC, now... how it behaves?
Does it ask for Permission before giving full Internal Storage access to the PC..or what?

[DarkClawX]

No, afairemember, it asked only on the 1st time.

Its not a flaw ,it's the way android works.It'll only give the internal storage permission if the phone is unlocked.That's why there are lock options available in it,just lock it and no one will be able to read the files from it,unless someone have your pin.

[SataruGojoo]

Why it's not taking "Charge phone only" as default...! It's safer that way.

Same phone but always it asks for what to do! And it informs usb is connected

[SataruGojoo]

Can't tell bro,
I'm facing this issue all the time.. and the worst part is that.. There is no option to Change the "Default Selection" .
