Thank you for your interest in Kali, but we are not able to deal with such hardware support problems. Please read https://kali.training/chapter-6/filing-a-good-bug-report/ first.

And consider that we are not kernel developers, if you know of a fix, we will gladly integrate it in our kernel build. Otherwise your best bet is to wait the next kernel update and keep around an old kernel that works for you (for example by installing an old known-working Kali image).

BTW, your problem does not affect all Android devices. For instance my OnePlus 3T phone is working fine and I can access it over MTP.
