So i tried to connect steamdeck to pc using usb and i read its immpossible because steamdeck is a computer and some explanation on quora about strong master slave relationship. But then why is it possible for android phones to connect to pc whilist also having the ability to use USB and other usb c accesories. Also why cant it be a toggle? So that you can change whetewer this usb( or device ) is reciving data ot sending data .

    I’ve used it about 2 months ago, back then it worked flawlessly. I don’t have my deck on hand rn, but I will test it when I get back.

      It’s should definitely work then. MTP usually doesn’t leverage USB Gadget, but this one seems to.

        The mobile device / “mtp Server” requires the gadget mode as far as I know. The PC /client does not need it.
