I am a newbie can any one help me with the cable specifications ?
are micro usb all the same ? my mobile is charging well but i am unable to connect it to laptop even after PC companion and drivers and stuff i still cant get into usb mode in xperia x10. I dont have original xperia cable but nokia, samsung and HTc cables.
Secondly can partition effect this process (SD card parition for App2Sd)?
Try to find a micro usb that states 2.0 on it. I have the same issue with one cable that is used only for charging the phone. I'm not sure about cables from other phones. I would just buy a new one that states 2.0 on the package.

Friends I have a big problem, my xperia X10i suffered damage at
I can not connect USB to my computer, the phone has android
1.6 and want to upgrade at least to 2.1 but do not know where to find a
generic rom to do the update without connecting the phone to USB
computer.
I'm sorry to hear.
But you'll need a functional USB port and USB cable to update your phone software, so I suggest that you contact your retailer to leave it for service.

See if you can resold the micro USB pin connector.. or take the phone to an official center.. i guess that is the only way. unless that you make a root and installing the Xrecovery flash the rom from there, you can use a custom rom too
The problem is how to load the ROM with everything inside the micro SD card
Can you charge your battery with USB cable?
If so, you should be able to connect your X10 to your PC via USB.
Otherwise you should return your X10 to the Sony Repair Center.
If you want to load a rom you need a rooted X10 and "xrecovery"apk.
To make a root without Flashtool and USB cable, i think you can do with "z4root"apk.
You can also use "rom manager"apk to load a rom in SD card.
If you are on the stock 1.6, then I'll recommend that you take it to a service center and check, since it's probably a hardware problem (common in X10).
hello,
My phone :
- Samsung Galaxy S II
- Android 2.3.3
- operator : SFR FRANCE
- ROM : SFR original : PDA:KE4 / PHONE:KE1 / CSC:KE4 (SFR)
I have this USB OTG cable : link
but the phone can't detect any usb stick.
Any idea ?
Thanks
Is the OTG recognized when you plug it?
Have you tried another USB device like a mouse or keyboard?
I think it's a problem with the OTG.
Yes I've tried with a lot of usb stick, a DELL keyboard and a usb mouse
What do you mean by "Is the OTG recognized when you plug it" ?
Do you mean just the cable without any device plugged ?
No the phone doesn't detect anything
Thanks
Is it possible that usb host doesn't work with android 2.3.3 and only work with android 2.3.4 ?
Thanks
it is very easy:
if you plug in the cable alone, without a device attached to it, and there is no immediate notification, then you didn't get a proper usb otg cable, but probably only an adapter from micro usb to usb a female. i have seen the listing you posted, but apparently, whoever manufactured and/or sold it to you, forget one important thing:
there needs to be a resistor between pin 4 and 5 of (AFAIK) 200k because the resistor controls, what the sgs2 expects plugged in.
you will find all the information you need in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1070573
with a video on how it is supposed to work.
and btw. that thread was created in may and otg certainly does not require 2.3.4
My friend's got a Legend with a USB malfunction (which I'm supposed to repair ). I've gone through all the threads and posts, and I couldn't find anyone which had precisely my problem.
When the phone's switched on and connected to via a USB cable, it starts charging, and the pop-up to select Charging, Mount as disk drive, Sync etc comes up.
But on the computer, whether I try USB debugging, or Mount disk drive, or the others, it shows the error "USB Device not recognized". I've installed HTC Sync, and am able to connect other phones without any problem.
I tried connecting the USB in fastboot, but it doesn't detect it either (FASTBOOT doesn't change to FASTBOOT USB).
I just wanna confirm with experts if this' a problem with the hardware (Got a sample here :http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18420923&postcount=11) before I go to the service center.
Thanks
U might be using the wrong data cable. There are 2 different types, there is the old type that only has 4 connectors in the mini USB plug (phone end), the new ones have 5 connectors.
Another possibility is that the cable is simply just damaged.
I had the exact same issue with an external HDD that worked, then stopped then worked again then stopped, tried a new cable and worked without issue.

I'm leaning less to the hardware side.
I have had this problem before (not entirely identical) and after fruitless attempts in fixing I decided to reflash my rom and USB worked again.

Thanks for the reply guys Had to replace the USB port connector PCB.
Just for the info, I was not able to re-flash the ROM since the phone was S-ON and bootloader locked and couldn't get FASTBOOT USB to work.
USB Version...
Hey guys, long time reader thought I'd contribute my frustration to hopefully help someone in a similar situation.
I spent a few days wondering why I couldn't get any of this to work no matter what cable I tried. For some reason, my HTC One X didn't like dealing with fastboot through my computer's USB 3.0 slot. When I finally tried a 2.0 slot on the same machine, everything went through just fine...
Cheers!

it sounds like the usb-port is damaged. I dunno what phone you have, but USB-ports can be replaced/repaired on some phones - e.g. S2

Q1:
Have you tried connecting your device to the computer via a USB cable? Can the computer recognize it?
If no, maybe there is problem with your USB port.
If yes, proceed to the next question.
Q2:
Have you tried changing the connectivity state for the USB port in Settings?
If not, try it out now.
If yes, report back and we'll discuss further more.
Use Es File Explorer... That's what I've been using
Sorry for late reply, I got it working, I replaced the usb cable, I think that the quality of the cable was too bad
