Hey Guys, this is a weird one.
So i was on westcrips rom since january and on friday my phone stopped charging or being picked up on my computer.
my friend also had this issue and was able to fix it by using odin to flash the stock firmware. I did this as well and it seemed to fix the issue for like an hour. but now when I go to charge the phone its not picked up. but if I plug the cable in when the phones off and power it up with it connected then it charges? It has me pretty confused tbh!
has anyone here come across a similar issue or the same one? or did i do something wrong??
cheers!
Aaron
That's odd. Try flashing a stock fw again and do a factory reset (always backup!)

I had a similar issue on stock ROM. However, I found out it was because the charging port/charging usb was dirty. Yeah, dirty! Some people recommended using a toothbrush to clean the inside of the usb port and try and clean the usb pin too. It worked for me ever since.
The problem I had was, it would show it was charging, but in actual fact, it wasn't. i.e. the the little lightening sign would show, but no effect. And on the lock screen, it wouldn't recognise my charger and usb lead!
Hope this helps.

Hey, so when I try to connect my GS2 to the computer (via USB), it doesn't connect for some reason. After connecting it, it takes about 5 secs and it starts to charge but doesn't connect to the computer. I've tried a couple of different ROMs and also on 2 other computers and its the same result. I need help please. Thanks
First make sure drivers are installed if so then try another cable that could be the problem.

You are missing the drivers. Search via Google for the hardware ID or simply by the model of the phone.

I have had the drivers installed, and I tried my brother's HTC usb cable and it still doesn't work.
My thread is right above yours. There are USB port issues with this phone. Although I feel for you, I'm glad to see I'm not the only one. If you have insurance take it back cuz it only gets worse. Flash stock while you still can, if you're not already running it. Trust me.

Same problem here and replacement is on the way, phone randomly thinks its charging, car mode turning on and such buy it is nice to know also that I am not the only one
Hey everyone,
I have been having troubles connecting my phone to my computer through USB. I used to have to push the micro USB cord to the side for the computer to recognize it. Now my computer will not recognize my phone at all, but charging through the USB connection works fine. Is there anything that I can try to get my computer to recognize my phone? (I have the drivers and have connected it to the computer successfully in the past) and if there is no fix, then will warenty cover it? I have had this since late October. I am running galnet miui if that helps.
Thanks,

My suggestion is to try another cable. USB cables can be real finicky. Or try a different USB port on the computer.

About how much was the replacement cost for you? I just want to get a rough idea.

I did not replace anything - I just cleaned the port and all was good again.
Oddly enough - today it started acting up again. Going to try cleaning it again, if that does not work its time to get it exchanged under warranty.
Please help! my i9100 dunno why suddently unable to turn on wifi, click wifi button it just stuck there.
It has happend to me occasionally... its when i switch from one wifi to another...like from home to work or vice versa...while being on mobile network in between...
i have had to restart the phone.
maybe a bug in OS... dunno
I can confirm that the same happens to me. Atr first I thought it was just me because of my custom rom, but after reading the above I'm not so sure anymore...
Anyway my solution was to restart the phone, it went back to normal.
First rule of technology: if something doesn't work, turn off device and then turn back on again.

You can also try making a full backup, doing a full wipe, then re-flashing your rom or even try with a different rom to see if the problem persists. Could also be kernel related, so you could always try a different kernel to test it.

Try to unplug your router for 10 seconds and plug it back in. Then forget the wifi connection and reconnect to it.

No it's not a problem with anyone's router in this case... Wifi devices other than phone should be working fine as does in my case..
Fiddling with the router is a distraction than being root cause.

have did a full wipe,wipe every thing! have tried different kernel different modem and also have restart my router but simply cant solve the problem.
I believe it should be hardware problem
Well if you tried everything, flash a stock ROM from sammobile.com, and send your device off to a Samsung Repair Centre. It sounds like a hardware problem after everything you have done.

now i just worried about samsung may not want to give me a free of charge repair under warranty condition due to the reason that i have rooted my phone.
so now i have flashed back to stock rom and hoping that samsung wont mind lol
Make sure you remove your SD Card when you send it off, and just to be safe use a USB Jig to remove any traces of a custom binary counter and the use of Odin.

Using a JIG is a lot more safer if you aren't sure. Triangle Away can easily brick your device if you don't know what you are doing.

Hi!
I have the samsung galaxy note i717, a few days ago the phone shutted down by itself while i wasn't ussing it, it read online that it was too much apps. i did the soft and hard reset and i had the same issue, so i read the next step was a factory reset. so i did it, and wipe the cache. after that, the phone started to reboot/restart by itself while i wasn't using it or wasn't charging... i did the factory reset, reboot it and even reinstalled it the firmware again on kias, but, the problem keep happening. today i left it charging for a long time and the phone won't turn on, it doesn't even show the battery logo, no download mode, no safe mode, no reset mode... and i think it is hard bricked. i read about jtag, changing the motherboard, or use a jig... i want to know what u guys think about this... i bought it on ebay and i would have to return the phone otherwise, so i'm trying to fix it by myself...
ty :fingers-crossed:

I've kinda seen comments that jtaggn is like pretty efficient but you would have to do alot and jign plug tht thing and c if it will wake it up. Sometimes works and sometimes doesn't depends.how bricked the note is i guess a more direct app is jtaggn

I've read a few posts where some users have issues with the power button sticking..
Try different USB ports on your PC if you can access download mode your still good.

JTAG is for a phone with the rom from another phone flashed to it. You can't enter recovery and Odin doesn't recognize it. It is the only way to bypass the boot and flash the correct rom.
Jig is for phones that won't go into recovery by software or buttons.
I think you have a battery issue. Trade with someone, then you will probably need the jig ($3.00 from ebay) to get into recovery.
well guys thanks a lot! but, i took it somewhere and the dude changed the battery nothing hapened and he told me i should just return it and i did. i loved that cellphone!
Hi everybody.
I was playing with my i777 and flashed a gallery file (just 1 apk) via CWM. It booted fine but crashed when using the camera and then rebooted. After reboot, it turned off and now I cannot turn it on again.
I tried download mode by removing battery, holding the two volume buttons and connecting to USB. That did nothing. I also tried USB jig which also did nothing. Connecting the phone to AC power source to see if at least the battery charging screen will show up also does nothing.
So the screen remains black with the soft buttons not lighting up. My phone is hard bricked from the looks of it. So my question is will sending this to MobileTechVideos for JTAG have a highly likelihood for unbricking or should I save the $50 and USPS charges and just buy a Nexus 4? I mean if they don't fix it, I will need a new phone anyway, heck I don't even have a spare phone.
Previous ROM was CM 10.1 03062013 nightly.
I don't even understand how that could have resulted in a brick...

I don't either but like I mentioned above. It rebooted ok after CWM flash then hung then android rebooted. It crashed then won't respond to jig, USB, power cable.
I failed to mention that I am afraid that this is an EMMC failure and that they might not be able to fix it and I would be wasting $50.
You say you tried Download mode, but made no mention of RECOVERY. If you can get there you're not bricked.

Nothing works. Not even the charging screen shows up when you plug it in. No button combo is working.
Phone is not detected by ADB

2) Try using USB jig again

Yeah I got it from XDA, it was supposed to be something to enable PicasaSync.
I already sent it to MTV so I think we can close this thread.
Thanks all.

Of course not. Flashed it with CWM recovery (or whatever recovery CM 10.1 comes with) as stated in OP.
