    <description>&lt;P&gt;Android 16 USB HID Enumeration Bug — Galaxy S23 Stops Recognizing Game Controllers After PC Connection&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;My Galaxy S23 running Android 16 stopped recognizing USB-C game controllers (e.g., Backbone One) after I briefly connected it to a PC. Before this, the controller worked perfectly.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What happens:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Android constantly shows “Charging connected device via USB / Tap for other USB options.”&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;USB controller does not enumerate as HID (USB OTG devices list stays empty).&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Controller doesn’t work in games or the Backbone app.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;The USB power-out setting re-enables itself even after I disable it.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;What I’ve tried:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Restart&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Safe Mode&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Cache partition wipe&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Clearing USBSettings data&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;App reinstalls&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Confirmed notifications &amp;amp; permissions are correct&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Evidence:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;OTG USB test shows USB Host present but no devices listed, proving USB enumeration is failing even though OTG support exists.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Expected behavior:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Controllers should be detected automatically as HID devices without persistent USB notifications and without needing special settings.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;This strongly suggests a USB role / HID enumeration regression in Android 16 / One UI.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Please escalate this to Samsung engineering for a fix. Users shouldn’t have to avoid USB data use or factory reset just to use game controllers.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
