Take a look at the Phone library, especially the PhoneEvents there you can determine if the device is plugged in or not, to transfer files you fill have to create your own routines using ADB, search the forums there are some samples about its use.

If the device is not connected in USB debug mode then it is very difficult to copy files programmatically.

It will be easier to connect to the local network (wifi) and use SMB library.

You can use 'adb push' to copy a file to the device.

I am actually looking to upload a file from the phone to the PC, not from the PC to the phone

You can use adb pull.

You can also create a TCP connection through ADB. You will need to create a desktop "server" program that will receive the file.
