Hey, im new here and i have problem on my HTC hero, when i connect him with USB cable to pc it only charges, i mean i couldnt connect from PC to my phone, cant transfer files to phone, nothing, i mean like it just charges, no reaction to pc at all...
P.S if it matters, this bug came to me same time as "headphones all the time bug" and "suspense app who drains battery amazingly fast"...
P.S.S Did ****load of rom changes, rom reflashes, things like that...
Any ideas, anything?
Which ROM are you using?
Now im using Elelinux-7.1.0-RC1-Hero-v3.0 gingerbread

Hello, I see that there are some people with broken USB ports, and I am wondering if I am suffering from the same, and would like some comments.
Until yesterday everything was fine. The first thing I noticed was that the phone would not turn on when I rebooted it (I'm using Wolfbreaks CM6 ROM). When the phone powers of, the LED turns green, like when it is entering flash mode, and it hangs there until I unplug the phone, and remove the battery, put it back, and press the power button. There is no offline battery icon, and no background light, the phone looks like it completely off, except for the led.
When I plug the phone into the computer, it is not detected, and the phone does not show the SDCARD mount option, and the debug connection icon, even though it is enabled. When I do the same in Linux, I can no longer see the phone, when I issue an "lsusb" command to list connected USB devices. As a last resort I tried to get the phone in to flash mode, and get it back to stock, but Flashtool, never sees the phone, and I have done this a lot, so I do not think that I'm doing it wrong.
Model: X10i
Android Version: 2.2.1
Baseband version: 2.0.52
Kernel Version; 2.6.29.6-b10
Mod version: Xperia TW 007
I have the deep sleep problem, and would like to get back to the stock kernel, and baseband 54. But now I want my USB to work, it is no fun having the phone otherwise, I use the USB, in trying to learn developing Android applications as well, and the debug feature is something I can't live without.
Anybody tried anything similar, and do you think I can fix it by soldering the USB connector?
Kind Regards
Martin
sounds like the flash rom && usb port are fubarred :/
i had a usb port go out last month an had to get the phone replaceed by att so that is what i woud do.
*EDIT*
oh and your not geting to the SE logo right? and you cant make it in to xrec
Getting even worse
Thanks for answering.
I am now certain that it is the usb connector, found that if I wiggled it right, it would work. Got in to flash mode and flashed half a baseband, before the connection was lost. I can't get a connection anymore, so the phone is dead with some sort of graphics with a phone an an exclamation mark. I have no receipt for the phone, as I bought it second hand, so I opened it up, but even with my tiniest solder-tip, there is not enough free room to get at the solder points. Anybody have a good technique for getting the thing re-soldered?
Did you try another cable?

If you are charging the battery with this cabel, it works?

Tonight I'll hopefully have a visit from a friend, who has an X8, and I will try his cable, and see what happens.
Try mount in xRecovery in partition tools if don't work its problem with PC
Hi everyone.
Sometimes I let my phone connected to my computer to listen to the music in it. When I connect the cable, it shows "charging" on the screen and the battery level grow up a little (5-6%) and then it start to drain like hell until the phone power off.
Is that normal? There's no way to make the phone charge wile connected to desktop? Why it start charging and then stop? ):
My phone is an sk17i with the CM7.2 ROM and Rage Kernel. Usage battery is normal, and this problem occurs with stock ROM too...
There's an software called "AI Charger", it recognize your phone and make the USB give more power to it, but only works with Apple products, there's nothing similar to Android Phones?
Thanks...
never had such a problem. I always charge my phone through computer only.
Maybe its a problem with your pc, try with some other computer

Hi guys,
I've been running Cyanogen for a long time on my GT-P7510, and I noticed a couple of days ago that the battery charging lightning bolt is now staying constantly on, regardless of whether there is a cable plugged in or not!
I've tried rebooting, wiping all caches, even reflashing, but it still says it's charging. This wouldn't bother me much, but a side effect of this is that when I plug it in to my PC via USB to transfer media, now the connection is never detected. Argh.
Anyone seen this before or have a suggestion of something to try?
Much appreciated
Chris
Well, *something* happened to make it realize when it was not plugged in. I went to load some media, plugged it in to my PC, MTP wasn't enabled, enabled it, now it's stuck "charging" all the time again, so no USB detection. Argh! So I know if *can* go back to normal, but I still have yet to figure out how to make this happen.
Any thoughts?
Much appreciated.
Hi guys,
I'm having some problems with my S2's USB port. I've been combing the forums to see if I can find something, but no luck. Let me describe the symptoms and everything I tried.
Whenever I plug my phone in, it doesn't show that it's charging, but the battery is getting filled. USB also doesn't work. Rebooting the phone with the power cable plugged in shows that the phone is charging. Doing the same with the USB only made it charge but not work in USB mode. The battery life is also crappy, as the phone never goes into deep sleep (not even with the Deep Sleep app).
First I thought that the USB board might be faulty. I exchanged that (yes, the revision matches). The problem still persisted. I then tried to reflash the device with different versions of stock ROMs (ICS and JB). Same thing. I then tried flashing the Siyah kernel. That solved a small part of it. Restarting the phone while connected to the PC will make the phone be recognized as a USB device. I also installed CM 10.1. Tried it out with the Dorimanx kernel, still nothing.
My next plans are to use the NukeROM script (tried it before, but nothing) and try fiddling with different ROMs. If anyone has any more ideas, I'd really appreciate it.
Thanks,
Tudor

Did you ever try to use another, USB cable, USB port or even computer to connect your phone? If not, try this first. It is just to make sure you are not trying to fix the problem on the wrong side of the USB cable
Oh yeah, forgot to mention. Tried multiple ports with multiple cables on multiple PCs.

Awkward, in this case likely to be a hardware problem, but you mentioned it isnt. I never seen something like this.

I could live with the USB thing, but the not going to deep sleep is really a phone killer. The battery only lasts a few hours on idle.

Use BetterBatteryStats then. It will help you find the problem.
over Lioyr
I've been using it (even got the paid version). Doesn't really show anything useful. Also, correct me if I'm wrong, it should show me any problematic apps I have installed. Seeing as how I've been wiping like crazy, I don't think it's an issue due to some app.

If you think it's a hardware issue It would probably be best to bring the phone to a Samsung repair center.
Might just buy a new phone. I just wanted to see if anybody ever had the problem before.
Hi guys, I have very big problem with my xperia. Few weeks ago i installed cyanogen mod (http://forum.xda-developers.com/xperia-u/p-development/-t2626639) evrything was working fine, but suddenly when i connected my charger to phone, it do not recognized it is charging. After some time of charging battery level goes up, but phone is hot as hell. After charging to 100% phone is rebooting and staying on sony logo, its turning on only after disconecting a charger. Battery life is like 15 minutes. I have tried to reflash cyanogen, didnt help. Then i wanted to reflash stock rom but after connecting phone to computer nothing happends, computer dont see phone. I have tried a lot of chargers and cables, nothing is working fine. I was thinking tahat maybe usb port is somehow destroyed, but phone is "charging".If you can please help. Cheers.
@krzywy1121
Change you battery.

I think it is not battery becouse i can not even connect my phone to computer. I think it is some kind of soft problem, but i don know how can i flash stock rom over cyanogen without using flashtool.

Im having the same problem here. HAve you managed to solve this?
Thanks
I've changed the battery, and it didn't make nothing. Phone can't recognize the cable plugged in, if i plug charger in, it charges, but don't indicate it. I can't connect my xperia to pc and flash stock rom. Any ideas how to solve my situation ?
