hey guys,
I tried to install a custom Rom with odin, and I kinda ****ed up my phone.
and for one reason or another the usb connector in my mobile isn't working anymore, but luckily I can still use CWM
So, now I want to know how I get my phone back to factory settings, I also rooted it,
and I was stupid enough to not backup my data and stuff.
if you haven't noticed yet, I am a complete noob who needs to learn alot!
so, now is my question:
How do I get my phone back to normal without using a USB cable (without purchasing any soft- or hardware)
Hope you guys can help me,
-Stefan

1. try another USB cable /port.
2. Does your phone charge when connected?

So my atrix doesnt charge via wall or pc. it doesnt even get recognized by the pc. i have an external battery charger to keep the juice up. I sucessfully unlocked and flashed rom racers recovery but CANNOT get root. during the ADB shell phase of root i get the error no device connected etc. im guessing the charging port is broken, does anyone have a quick fix? thanks.
problem is the root apps wont work and im wary of flashing a custom rom without root permissions. thanks

Tell us more of the history of the phone. Any recent drops? Is the phone used or new? Depending on what you say, the more options are there for help.

it was my girlfriends phone it was stock all the way until last night. it was out of warranty and had the wifi error. moto wanted 110 to fix but we didnt want to spend that much $ because she already had a new phone. shes always had a case on it. we bought it new about a year or so ago.
it just doesnt charge it connect. even with many different chargers.

Have your tried flashing any custom ROMS on it? If I recall, I could be totally wrong, when I put my custom recovery on the phone, it had to be rooted.
Download root checker from the market. That should tell you if you are definitely rooted or not.
If you are you can put your micro sd card in the computer with an adapter, put the custom ROM on that way, put the sd card back in the phone and flash the ROM like that. Post back when you tried root checker.

ive tried root checker it says no. it connects via fastboot. i used fastboot to unlock and i fastbooted a recovery. but for the rooting process, it requires the phone to connect via usb and since the charge port/usb doesnt work idk what to do.

Have you looked at the house of pudding sticky or the other stickies rather? I am not familier with pudding but READ first if you do need to root through usb. I might be wrong but pudding might be without usb. Let me know. I have one idea left if this falls through.

I read pudding, clicked on the ROOT link and it linked me to a weird website. its probably old. im on 2.3.6 i believe. if i scroll down some, the instructions say to type in ADB shell, which means connect my phone in the usb right? I do have android debuggin checked as well. whats the solution! please tell me its an easy charge port fix!

I think you might be able to use terminal emulater as adb on the phone if that makes sense. If that is possible also. I am going to ask someone. So give me a bit.

Hi mate,
I have had the same problem.Your USB port doesn't work because it's bent. So get a toothpick or needle, get the battery out and bend your usb port a bit down (you should have ratio 2:1 of space between usb connection to usb port)

If it doesn't connect you even on it might be a usb problem http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=15924419&postcount=13
I have had the same, phone wouldn't boot at all as it was stuck on boot menu (it assumed that was connected to usb)
But if it persist, and it's MTP, just try safemode of you PC operating system (i assume it's windows) and install the driver from here

There used to be a bunch of CWM flashable stock roms in a thread in the General section. I don't think there'd be anything 'recent' firmware-wise (probably ICS/early JB, you never know though), but the name of the game is to get your phone working so that doesn't matter. Do an XDA/Google search (sorry, don't have a link).
Firstly your phone rooted?
If you are not able to connect to pc then make sure you have usb drivers installed on your pc.
If rooted then pls do a new zip install and bring your phone to working status

its a unofficial build, and the developer said to only flash the Slim_minimal_gapps.4.3.build.2 so just use that one it comes with:
Google Play (of cours)
Youtube (You may get pixelated video, but it is not the gapps or rom problem, its because google)
Google Music

can I install ClockworkMod Recovery from sd card?
and can the phone be rooted with out the usb port working?
I want to update to 4.1.2 or 4.2.2.
the phone is unlocked
4.0.4 on it now
my phone has a bad usb port waiting for new one to come in, I have read that sometimes after installing the new port there could be a loss of signal, I a battery charger and a spare battery so if that happens then I will have to put the old one back in.
I'm new to all this sorry if this has been asked before I could not find the info
If you have a custom recovery installed already, yes cwm can be installed from the sdcard. If you only have the stock recovery, you must use a pc with the usb.
Looks like you'll have to wait till you get a new usb port to install a custom recovery and root. Once you have the custom recovery installed, you'll no longer need usb. So if your new port has signal issues you can swap back and still be able to flash!

Sooo.. i understand that you have allready root rights.
Iff you do... here is an ideea:
1. go to android market and download RebootManager
2. install.
3. this app has the power to make you happy .
4. press rebootmanager > press reboot to recovery... give app root right...
5. and... voila you are in recovery. Custom recovery(if and only if you installed the right and good recovery for your phone)
hope this helps you.
Ohh.. one more think: TWRP is way better then CWM. My opinion.

Hi. I am sory that is not working.
I have thinked about what you sad. Try this:
1. Load the scatter file that is in the firmware: MT6572_Android_scatter.txt
2. Try to flash without the accumulator pluged off.
3. Plug the cable after you pressed firmware upgrade button.
If this is not working, i will try to find something that is working, when i will have some time. From time to time check this post maybe i will find something and i will upload here.
Good luck.

Hi guys,
I found a stock rooted rom to flash, I have an issue mentioned in a previous thread which means i cannot connect to anything via usb.
I flashed the rom but it was bootlooped, so i went into recovery and did a factory reset.
I tried again but still bootloop, so i went into recovery again and did advance wipe for new rom (everything)
Then it wouldnt mount my external sd so i thought reboot into recovery and see if that works.
well it didnt lol all i get is the sony symbol and no further and i cant get into recovery. have double and triple checked!
Also tried to follow the brick solution but i cant connect to flash from the pc, it just says usb not recognized ( i have installed all the drivers, this seems to be the problem i have at the moment not being able to connect to the pc)
I have booked it in to sony as the usb isnt working and the hard drive is wiped im hoping there will be no evidence of root or custom recovery... please tell me this is the case so i can get the phone repaired under warranty?!
Any advice guys, lease dont be shy!
Oh and yes I know I'm a fool so we can forgo the posts calling me a dingbat ha ha

You probably unlocked your BL so they will notice that. But you can allways try..
no the bootloader is locked as far as im aware you have to go through the sony website to unlock it

If the BL was locked there's no way to find out that phone is rooted. Cheers.
