Out of curiosity, why not via Wifi? It doesn't require any drivers on the client side which is really nice. To your question, I haven't done it in over 5 years so my experiences probably are relevant anymore. Thank you, -- Eric

This is an unrooted Motorola Droid Turbo on Verizon.

I found that I can go into Developer Settings on the phone, set the USB connection type to RNDIS, and my computer sees a USB network connection, but I haven't been able to get an IP address assigned; it says "connecting" for a bit, then fails.

It says you need to run companion software on your PC, and they offer that software for Windows and Mac, but not for Linux. I don't have internet access to my home anymore, so I can't search repositories like I used to.
