Happy Holidays Everyone!!!
Phone:
Tmobile T959 aka Samsung Vibrant
It is on stock Froyo 2.2
It has the 3E recovery.
I tried on 2 computers but I can NOT connect via USB it gives me USB malfunction error. The phone does charge. I can put it into download mode vie the 3 finger trick. When you connect it does give you the option to click the green Android icon Connect to USB. So it is talking to the computer, the usb is not totally dead.
Problem:
I need to root this phone. I can not use 1 click or anything else because I think there is a problem with the USB port. I can get files onto the phone via wifi or using the external sd card.
I tried using the update.zip file BUT because I am on the 3E recovery it will say signature failed. I can not run the install.bat to get it back to 2E recovery. I can not use ODIN because the Windows will not detect the phone properly.
What workaround can I use to root this phone? How would I use terminal on the phone?
HOW WOULD YOU ROOT THE PHONE IF YOUR USB PORT WAS "broken"?
THANKS for helping!
As far as I'm aware, you can't root your phone without the USB port working as most (if not all) root methods send their commands and files through ADB. Your pretty much stuck, unless your phone is under warranty. In that case, just go to your carrier and see if they'll give you a replacement device.

It's out of warranty
I think there may be a way to do it via terminal emulator on the phone.
If this is possible, can someone please post how to do it.
anyone with a work around?
damn!
Am I stuck or does anyone have a way for me to root this phone without the using the USB connection (USB does charge, It will know when you connect to the pc for USB storage BUT windows will say not recognized. I tried it on 4 other pc's same results. I think something is wrong with the OS of the phone. I think the previous owner tried to update with Kies and it messed up the phone. The phone does boot and works.

I did all of that.
I think something is wrong with the phone's OS that is effecting the usb port.
How do I root this phone WITHOUT the USB port?
There has to be a way!
Can you determinate VID&PID of phone?
I can get into the device with airdroid and see the system files.
Which files do I need (or which apps) and where do I copy them manually to get it rooted?

Is there not a device forum where you might could get some better information? My thinking is, a lot of the people (or most of the people) who may know some workarounds can probably help, but they don't check this section very often or at all.
Even if there's not a section for that model, I'm thinking there's probably one quite similar. Also a lot of times, a big portion of the userbase of one phone, will migrate to the same model when they upgrade.
Just throwing out some ideas in case that's helpful. My only advice on the problem itself is that I would look further into the driver issue. I've helped several people with very similar issues that we finally were able to correct.
Have you tried to ADB the device just to pull the serial? With USB debugging enabled. Have you installed the SDK and tried the naked drivers? There's some things to pursue possibly so you can have more information for the person who helps you get things straightened out.
So i have a motorola razr xt910 and i was running the jellywiz rom before this thing happened. So what i did was, boot into bmm recovery, restored cid, did a full wipe and immediately tried to flash the mokee rom. When it was done, i rebooted and got a FASTBOOT FLASH FAILURE. Later, i tried to use RSD lite to fastboot it back to europe ics but the com did not detect the phone. I tried lots of stuff
1. Tried another pc
2. Reinstalling the drivers
3. Tried different cables even the motorola OEM one
4. Spent money to replace the micro usb port on my phone
5. Factory resetting my phone a few times
6. I tried with my friend's razr on a pc with all the appropriate drivers, the pc could detect my friend's phone but not mine
But all of them did'nt work, it is still stuck in fastboot flash failure for 3 weeks now. Any solutions? Thanks in advance

I had a very similar problem- the proper cable was necessary for my computer to recognize the phone. I uninstalled all of my USB drivers, and let windows reinstall them. This has helped with my SGS3 for recognizing the device. I used RSD 5.7, and having adequate power is imperative.
EDIT
When I say I reinstalled the drivers, I don't mean the Moto drivers. I uninstalled my USB device drivers in Control Panel> Device Manager, and then I reinstalled the motorola device manager, which reinstalled the motorola drivers. However, if your computer doesn't even recognize an unknown USB device connected, then it sounds like either A) a USB cable issue, or B) a USB A port issue.

Sorry for the late reply and thanks for trying to help. Okay so I tried what you said, I uninstalled the USB device drivers and let windows reinstall them rebooted my pc then reinstalled motorola device manager. When i plugged in my phone, the pc still did not detect it although i was using a motorola oem cable fresh from the box. It is definitely not a USB port issue as I tried pluggin in my mouse and omy thumbdrive into the other ports and it could detect them and install the drivers. So any solutions? I'm starting to miss her.
Do you have access to the fastboot menu at all? Any of the options, aside from AP fastboot? What is the battery status?

I have access to the fastboot menu all the options available and the battery is OK. Its just that when i plug it in to the pc it does not detect the phone.
Will the PC recognize the phone under any of the other boot options? (BP Tools, diag, BP SBF flash, Recovery, etc.) When I got to the point where my power source was adequate, and all I had trouble with was PC-Phone recognition, I purchased an OEM Moto charger from Verizon with a cable that said "factory data" on it. I wish I could be of more help, but that was the last step to fix my problem. It recognized immediately, and I successfully flashed. It sounds like you've covered all your bases on the PC end. Let us know if you find a solution!

Thanks for your concern. The pc did not detect the phone in an of the other options so the last resort is using that cable. Is it the same as the factory cable, can i make one myself cause i have a soldering iron at home. Or ordering one online would be better?
I would say go ahead and make one. Just beware, a lot of USB cables (most) have either rubber or hot glue molded around, so it is difficult to expose the contacts on the Micro B connection. There is a great tutorial by MotoCache1, located HERE, that will give you the rundown. It's worth a shot. My only concern is that the idea of the factory data cable is to trick the phone into thinking there is a good power source (without a battery/dead battery). I would think that finding the right USB cable would effectively solve your problem, but go for it, and let us know how it works. You can order the cable (if TeamBlackHat has them... or you can find one sold out of Cali on Ebay, I've heard), and that may be the ticket. Good luck.

Thanks for the tip. I will give it a shot when I have the time. However I was wondering why my phone would run into such a problem. Before that when i flashed roms and soft bricked it, i could still recover it using rsd lite and fastboot files. Secondly, my usb cable was woking fine until just before i landed into this mess. The phone could not be detected by the pc in usb storage mode so i resorted to using google drive instead of actually solving the problem.
By the way, could i have the model number of the motorola oem factory data cable you bought. I dont live in the US so i may need to buy it from another shop. Thanks!
You may very well have a hardware problem, if you were having connection problems before the fastboot errors. Could be the contacts on the micro female in your phone. It sounds like you definitely have a data transfer problem if you couldn't mount for mass storage.
The only number I could locate is SKN6430A.

I already replaced the micro usb port on my phone after i bricked it but it still did not work. How to solve a data transfer problem? Thanks.
Appropriate USB cable, unfortunately. Motorolas are very picky. Even if you weren't having problems with a particular cable before, like me (fastboot flash would start, but not finish, first time I encountered a problem), the right cable solved my it. OEM Motorola data cable.

Okay I guess it all goes down to the cable. I've got a SKN6378A from motorola but it doesn't work. So what is the appropriate cable i should get or should i just send my phone to the motorola service centre and ask them to help me solve it?
I'm certain they can diagnose the problem, though I couldn't say for certain what the cost would be. You may have better luck purchasing a used phone on eBay. I can understand your frustration, to an extent, though you're problem is turning out to be more complicated than mine! Motorola tech support may also be able to help, remotely.

Hey I Know You Said You Already Tried Using A Different Computer But Were They Different Operating Systems? I Had A Similar Problem RSDlite Wouldn't Recognize My Phone On Windows 8 But Connected Just Fine On Windows 7.
fastboot not detected
while the PC recognize the phone under any of the other boot options BP, Tools, diag (here the phone goes black), BP SBF flash, Recovery, why the fastboot is not recognized? im on a xt910, i have no system.. and i remember that previosly, he wasnt able to be recognized even as an mass storage... so weird.. then i messed up, and i cant do nothing because all the do able thing is via fastboot.. is there any chance to do something via recovery stock without getting operation aborted?.. oh, another hint, i mess a little with the entry of the female usb on the xt910, and now i have an "unknown device" maybe is broken.. and if i disarm it, and i cut a cable, and green and white should be data, maybe ill be able to flash something via rsd.. damn is so weird that the bp is recognized in rsd but fasboot not.. and i cant buy nothing, i just have a knife, two cables(i cutted one to put the negative positive directly to the battery) and wi fi. thanks in advances, and yes i know that is an old thread, but i dont know what else to do. /And sorry for my english, i dont speak it.

i think its only socket problem
meqns hardware problem
Try this method!
If you think it is a software problem, try this:
Source: http://forum.xda-developers.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_Duos/GT-S7562
Code:
Recovery Mode
Recovery mode can be entered by switching the device off and pressing the following buttons; VOL UP + VOL DOWN + HOME + POWER
When the phone vibrates let go of the buttons.
Note: It can take several attempts to enter recovery mode, so do not give up immediately!
After entering recovery mode, wipe the phone but beware, it will delete all the data in the internal memory. So take a backup of all your data, contacts, messages, before you do this.
After you perform wipe, reboot the phone. It will take longer than usual but after that you will be on the screen.
You can use your phone as a new phone and try charging again.
Press thanks if I have helped!

I Already Tried But With No Result
If the device is not charging properly and you know for certain that it is not an issue with the cable/charging block/etc, then most likely it is an issue with the USB port itself. Unfortunately, for that phone, the part is soldered to the motherboard and not a repair for a casual DIY tech. That said, your easiest work around will be to buy an extra battery and an external battery charger. Then you just pop in the new battery and leave the other to charge on the wall. I actually miss being able to do this (I have a Nexus) as it does not require you to be plugged into the wall, just the battery in the charger. If you need to transfer files without the port, there are numerous solutions via wifi and BT.

Ok, well then if it all works fine and is just cosmetic, your choices are to factory reset and see if it is an easy fix or to reload the OS with Odin (and reset).

That's what I figured... So, pretty sure either the port is bad, or it's a hardware (motherboard) issue. If it were only that warning on the PC, then one might think driver issue, but that combined with the charging issue, makes me think otherwise - assuming the cord works and syncs properly with other phones. You said you had already restocked the OS with Odin, but that does not seem likely due to the error on the PC. Just a hard reset does not affect /system much, so if there IS an issue with the software, a factory (hard) reset wouldn't do much. If you remove all Samsung drivers and Kies programs, reboot, and reinstall Kies (for the drivers) and you still get that message, then it's most likely hardware related.

It's not unheard of that roms can cause connection issues, but very rare on stock based roms and kernels. If the computer doesn't recognize the phone then it might be tricky to root. It's possible that you could root with an app like Framaroot and then install Mobile Odin and flash the firmware from the phone, but it depends on what build version of the software you have to which root methods are supported.

Hello Everyone
I am putting my problem in this general section with the hope to ask for help to more people compared to the Mate 8 section where not a lot of people go these days.
Since a while I am not able to connect my phone to a laptop. If I connect it to a laptop it just starts charging but nothing else. I have tried everything like:
Changing Cables (tried more than 5. I dont have the original anymore)
Changing Laptops
Changing the USB port of the phone itself
Updating Drivers
Installing Hisuite (current version 5.0.3.300)
Restore phone to factory settings
Complete formatting
Updating to the latest version (Current version Nxt-L29C185B582)
Changing the USB debugging/ Connection (MTP/PTP/etc)
And what not
The problem is, it doesnt get detected on the computer and cant connect to adb as well. All I want is to unlock bootloader and Install TWRP and Magisk. I have the unlock bootloader code but no way to unlock it since I cant connect.
Can anyone help me in fixing this stupid problem ? It is getting frustrating. If there is a hardware issue, what part needs to be replaced? Any help would be appreciated.

Go to the Settings of your phone---> About phone----> Build number tap this 7 to 8 times-----> Developers option is enabled----> back to settings ----> go to developers option ----> enable USB debugging.
When you connect to the phone to the laptop you will find an icon on top of the screen of your phone with a USB mark "like a trident", pull down the top menu and find the USB connection tab, (like changing the sim card if you intend to call through a specific card) e.g quoted, double tap the USB tab to obtain options ---> 3 options 1) MTP 2)PTP 3) USB charging only----> select the first option MTP (Media transfer protocol).
Now connect to the laptop you will find exclamation marks in the device manager of your laptop. Load the appropriate drivers on your computer and viola! this will establish connection with the device you are having. if you find difficulty in installing USB drivers, search the thread "Attempt to load USB drivers for Micromax E484 on win XP is a fiasco" in this forum. You will find the solution for USB drivers

Nope. Doesnt happen
When i connect with the laptop, my laptop doesnt even make that sound for the connection.
What is the model and OS version of the device and the model and OS version of the computer? According to your symptoms your phone appears to be in option 3) USB charging only. The phone will not be detected by your laptop or the like(Computer) in this mode. Merely remains in a charging state. Are you certain the option 1) is picked MTP? If the phone is not detected there appears to be some hardware failure, try another USB port to connect to the laptop. if all else fail a service technician will pinpoint the fault. It may perhaps be a data transmission failure of the devices port to the interior of the phone. This is merely an assumption.
best remedy would be a service technician.
Hope this helps

I have tried changing the usb charging only to all possible options but it still is the same. I tested in Linux and when I connect the phone nothing shows up in the logs. It's like it's not being connected . I have tried changing the usb port itself from the phone but it remained the same.. can the flex cable be a problem ? Mate series was never launched in India so I don't have any help from the service centre. I have to order the spare from eBay.com so there is no qualified technician who can help.. that's why I have to fix it myself somehow..

Thank you for your help

I quite doubt the cable will be the culprit as your device charges the battery while in an established connection with the laptop. As you state the phone USB port was replaced, it could be a some glitch before the USB port in the device where there is an interruption in the data transmission signal that cannot be detected by your laptop.
Could you boot your device, computer and connect the two and take a snapshot of your device (whilst connected to the laptop) and paste the same in the forum?
Perhaps visual cue could be better at dealing such mishaps.

Yes of course. It is connected to a computer now. You can see it getting charged but that's about it

Can it be something because of some wrong flash ? This problem has survived through 2 versions and 1 system upgrade through firmware finder .. and a complete format
USB trident is not seen on the device

Your USB trident icon is not indicated on the device, If you were to receive power from the laptop the trident would be displayed on top of the screen, even for charging the battery. The power source for your device appears to from other than the laptop.
I have pasted my device after connecting to the computer and the second icon from the top left is the USB Trident icon indicating connection with my laptop. Have taken the snapshot of the menu that I was describing .
I strongly feel you have a hardware failure rather than a simple fix and would require the help of a technician (ordinary if professional is unavailable). Am skeptic you could mend that on your own unless you are proficient in electronics. This mishap is not due to flashing wrongly too, unless you have changed the stock ROM with some custom ROM which has some bug that affect the USB alone.
Take the assistance of a technician whether professional or less is my counsel
Thank you

I did flash a different rom .. but then back to stock recently.
I can do basic electronics but the if the problem lies in Mobo .. then nothing can be done .. as I don't have the spares available in India. But I would hate to lose this phone as it was a perfect fit for my needs

Then the question of wrong flash or ROM issue does not arise

If you do not have spares is best left alone rather than tampering with it and rendering the device useless if any untoward incidents tends to occur.
But I would hate to lose this phone as it was a perfect fit for my needs
Send to the vendor directly if you have warranty for the device stating its complaints or request your relative or friends who live in the area where you bought your phone to hand it to the vendor or service technician and bear its expenses

Is there a way to unlock bootloader somehow without connecting to usb ? That would also solve the purpose.. I want to root it for some of the things to work and with the latest upgrade to latest version I lost the unlocked bootloader and root.. if somehow I can unlock and root .. I should be fine without the usb connection to computer.. but I have ran out of ways
Does Kingroot work for you?
I mean did u try it or u just want magisk?
If u didn't, kingroot may be able to root ur device and unlock ur bootloader, then u can flash TWRP using rasher.. & make a backup BTW...
After that, try using the adb sideload in TWRP to test ur connection with ur computer.
TWRP for ur device : (q.gs/DxuAH)
There is a way to unlock bootloader without USB via developers option.
Go to settings-----> About phone-----> Build number ( Tap this option around 7 or 8 times) till developers option is enabled------> go back to settings-----> developers option-----> OEM unlock option (Enable this option) to unlock the bootloader.

This gives me an frp unlock and not a phone unlock.. still not able to root
There is no FRP unlock.

There is no FRP unlock, to circumvent FRP you need to factory reset or flash your firmware. The above quotation was to unlock the boot loader as you cannot access through your computer. Your sole option to unlock boot loader was through the above directions.
Moreover, King root application never ask for boot loader to be unlocked. Although a little unstable this is the initial program to root any device. Once you have the TWRP setup then you could switch to Super Su etc. according to your preference.
Could you paste your developers option snapshot here...

Connect your phone to your computer or laptop, a trident icon appears on your phone notification area, pull down the notifications and identify the notice as USB connection, tap twice you willk be provided with options.
and i want back to orignal system
and i want know how download orignal system (from Huawei web site) to my phone
My phone was Micromax and I am not aware of your phone's firmware, try and google or search the Xda developers forum under your phones model number for the original firmware.
can any one help me how
or how can fixed this problem
and i have other problem
when i try to boot to TWRP phone stay on " your device is booting now..."
Your phone has not installed TWRP duly, therefore it boots straight to the system. Search again in this XDA forum, with your pnone name and model number to obtain instructions
so any one can help me how reinstall TWRP without PC or why this problem ??

So I have been trying to root my Moto G Power 2021 all day. I have been following the guide to using Magisk the non-twrp way, and I keep hitting the same snag over and over again. So far, I have successfully unlocked the bootloader, downloaded and installed the latest Magisk apk (Magisk25.2.apk) form the github page, and downloaded and installed the official Rescue and Smart Assistance (LMSA) on my computer. The problem that I am having is that whenever I plug my phone into my computer while I have RSA open, it asks me to authorize the computer to use it, but nothing opens on my phone to give me that option.
Before I am asked, yes I have Developer tools unlocked, the OEM is unlocked already (As I said above), and I have made sure that USB Debugging was allowed.
Please, tell me where I'm going wrong with this if anywhere?
The only other information I can think to add is that my phone IS running Android 11, but I'm unsure if that matters as I have seen other guides that explain how to root on Android 11.
Thanks in advance for any information that can be given!
First thing: Have you installed the specific Motorola USB Drivers on your PC?

Yes I did. I also tried uninstalling and reinstalling it when you linked it in case I didn't have it installed correctly, and that still did not work.
The below image is what I keep getting when I attempt to connect to RSA with my phone, and nothing at all like that shows up on my phone to verify.
Had you previously authorized the phone on that PC, i.e., using adb, etc? If so, you may not have to authorize it again. Have you actually tried to do anything with RSA or just wondered why the authorization notification doesn't show on your phone? Does the USB debugging pop-up show in the status bar on your phone when you're connected? If so, you're connected and were already authorized.
Other than that, your antivirus/firewall software may be blocking the connection and you'll have to allow the app to connect to the phone there. May also want to check that your USB cord isn't the issue by trying another one with data capabilities.
Please see the N.B. in my signature below.
Thanks! I'll give that a shot and update when I've got a chance. I don't believe it's the USB cable since it's the cable that came with the phone, so I'll try the antivirus/firewall software side of things first.
Small edit:
I forgot to actually answer your question before. No, I hadn't already authorized this computer, as this is actually a pretty new computer (Only a few months old at this point). The USB debugging shows up at the top of my phone yes, but RSA won't do anything unless I authorize it, which gives me conflicting impressions that the phone seems to think it's verified the computer, but the computer and program don't see the verification.

Thank you! That worked! I was able to get it sorted out, AND following the root guide, I was able to get my phone rooted too! Thank you very much again!
@Cloud557 How did you unlock bootloader? I have cricket moto g power 2021 but I checked with Motorola and apparently this model cannot be unlocked? Thanks
