Hello guys i recently bought a gt-i9100 and i noticed that when i connect the charger on the usb port network signal gets weaker... The weirdest thing is that when i connect a usb otg cable (which works fine btw) i have no signal reception at all...any ideas what's the problem?
Rom: cm10.2
Baseband:xxls8

This happens sometimes when the usb port isn't properly replaced. This is a hardware issue so try to fix it yourself or get the phone to a repair shop.
Thank you for your reply....I found out that the "faulty" part is pretty simple to be replaced so i decided to give it a try...well i looked it up and it seems that there're a lot of revisions of that pcb...Do you know which one should i buy??does it really matter??

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.

Thanks,
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.
Hi guys!
I seem to be having a problem with charging my phone recently and was wondering if I was alone in the issue
My charger cable seems to be very funny on the phone end. Sometimes if I wiggle it it'll charge or connect to my PC, but other times its just useless and won't connect.
Is anyone else having problems with it?
Is it more likely to be the cable or the phone?
I don't really want to shell out for another one of these though, as a budget phone its been great.
But seeings as I'll be starting work very soon I'll soon be working my way towards a Galaxy nexus or similar. So I would just get by on a cheaper phone if ya see what I mean?
Please reply :3

Try another cord bro.
Probably its cord problem

It's definitely the cord
Well, come to think about it, I have been charging it every night for the past year (literally). So inserting it that many times is definitely going to have some effect. Cheers for the suggestions guys

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!)

Clean your USB Port it'll help
Do tell if you got it all sorted out, always here to help

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.
Hello guys I need some help and wiil organize the info as best as I can
Origin: started getting a msg saying "voltage to high,charging paused" when the phone wasnt even charging!! after a little drop of water in usb port. Phone would also turn on by itself.
Have done: bought 3 new USB ports buy none worked properly, they fixed the problem with the usb port but then I cant connect to tmobile service, phone does recognize the sim and when I do a network scan it does find at&t but not tmobile. Its like I loose a band.
Flashed a different firmware and baseband. Currently on XWLPT kernel and XXLQ6 baseban and still no luck.
As soon as I change to the old USB board I get instant service with tmobile :s
REPLACEMENT PARTS: USB boards two rev2.2 and one rev2.1
Please advice, I dont understand whats going on :s
THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP
What is the small round dome fixing for on the board.A wire goes on it-would it be for the antenna.

Yeah, i guess it is but I hook it up in all of the board equally though. And still no luck with the new ones :s
There has been twice as much people on here saying that after changing board something doesnt work-than people saying it works ok.
People must be selling faulty stuff.

Yeah at first I thought that but then I bought 3 and all 3 gave me the same issue, so now I dont know what to think. :s
Only thing you could maybe try is change the usb only.Looks like its just 4 blobs of solder shaped in a square that holds it in.

Hey Handale30, did you ever get it fixed? If so, what worked for you?
I have the same issue but with a GT-N7000, I swapped out the USB charge port board. After the change, I get good signal and the it slowly dies and then it's back again.
