Android Stuck in Charging only mode - No connection to computer - Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

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.

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

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.

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...

[Q] Has my SII's USB died?

Well, the day before it occurred to me that I'd like to install a custom ROM, therefore I went on to plug my phone into my PC and for my surprise, the phone didn't pop that MTP warning and the PC did not recognize it.
So I went around and changed USB ports, cables and PCs, same thing.
Decided to try Mass Storage mode, when I press the START button and put in the cable it goes back into the main start screen.
So I went on and tried that *#7284# trick people used since apparently 4.0.3 bugged some crap stuff in the phone, no success either.
Strangely enough I can connect the "pendrive dongle" and it will map pendrives.
Well, I don't have my phone rooted or with SU so that means CWM from app store won't be able to install the recovery module, and I can't install... you get the picture.
Nor ODIN nor HEIMDALL will recognize my phone in recovery mode, wich suggests that the data lanes on my phone went somewhat dead.
Finally, any cable I plug in the phone says it's charging my device, wich leads me to belive that the usb port is dead.
Anyone had this issue?
Anyone can confirm me I'll have to take it to Sammy's assistance?
Sure looks like the USB is dead/dying.
Sent from my digital submersible hovercraft.
So I got one more question, can I root and/or install CWM so I do not stay dependent of the USB to update it or I do need to plug in the USB to install CWM through ODIN?
Several problems
It can be several reasons
1.the usb is dead buy new
2. try factory resetting the device
3. install kies on pc it will install all the drivers that you need
4.your usb port(of the phone) is dead
I had the same problem pc was saying "USB cannot be recognized" I TRIED EVERYTHING from factory resetting, changing pc usb ports, changing usb, changing kernel, roms, trying on other pc, reinstalling kies and drivers but nothing. The problem was in the usb port on the phone where you connect the charger on the phone. That part is weak and so you have to change it. Take to customer service with your warranty and they will fix it without charging anything just tell them your problem and say that you read that most of the galaxy s2 users have this problem and that you didn't touch the hardware of the phone

Warranty has already expired.
Kies was installed on the PC, ODIN gives no info @ COM port.
I wanted to connect it just to root and install CWM so I can swap ROMs as much as I want.
Thing is, the customer service wants 1 week to assess the issue and probably 100USD to fix it.
So for some god-knows-why reason my phone decided to conect to MTP while charging, I quickly restarted it into revocery mode and flashed CF_Root w/ CWM5.5.
Successful!
Bloody USB thingy!
Now I can start messing around with the phone.
Anyone has a n00blet guide on ROMs?
I was thinking about moving to CM 10.1, one of those nightlies running 4.2.2.
This is the one I used >> CF-Root-SGS2_XW_OXX_LPE-v5.5-CWM5
Can anyone suggest actions?
For future you should change your USB-Port. Here we get one for about 15 € (about 20 $) in ebay. It's very simple to change and then you have a full working phone again. Just watch the Videos on Youtube and everyone can do this. Hope I could help!

any possible way to get this tablet up and running?

GTP7510MAYXAR wont connect to pc, usb not recognized. In odin mode it does the same. Pc doesnt have bluetooth either.
When inserting a usb female connector it does say usb connection, but the usb flash drives did not show. Tablet
also charges healthy.
I want to root this, install clockwork recovery, flash rom to jb 4.2.2, but without the help of that pc i am stuck on 4.04 stock.
Bought this from someone so no previous exp with this device.
Any way to root and install recovery with tablet alone itself?
Thank you for your time:laugh:
Maybe I'm underestimating your experience, but you can try this to see whether USB storage works:
Go to Settings -> Storage -> the 3-lined menu button at the top right corner -> USB PC connection -> Media device (MTP)
I wish this can help. if you have further questions we are here to help at any time.
Good luck!

Ofcourse i tried it hihi:highfive:
But i am starting to think its faulty hardware as no one has any idea about the issue
I actually bought mine in the exact same condition. It would not work on usb no matter what i did also a few other 'bugs' I thought it was a faulty cable but it turned out to be corrupted files on the rom.
Long story short, reatoring the tab to factory via ODIN fixed everything.

Well, you could use mobile ODIN or Rom Manager. However, you need to be able to pull the backup you're going to make before you install that custom rom off of the device. Using USB is a simple way of doing that. It's possible to get it off over WiFi, but you really should fix the USB.

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.

Yes , Its Charging And Working With USB Cable Very Well
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.

Undetected by PC. Unable to access fastboot, flashtool. "USB devices disabled"

Undetected by PC. Unable to access fastboot, flashtool. "USB devices disabled"
Note 1: I purchased this device second hand in a third world country, so please don't suggest "warranty" or return or service options.
Note 2: Both my computers work perfectly fine with other devices, so please don't waste time asking questions about them. They are fine. My adb configuration is fine. Yes I've tried many, many different cables. This problem is definitely 100% with the phone. The only thing that COULD be computer-side is drivers, but once again, it was connecting normally without any drivers before the "USB devices disabled" warning. I have the latest version of everything with the latest updates. I have followed all the info in all other guides all over the internet.
When I first got this phone, I did what I always do: Enable dev options, enable OEM unlock and ADB debugging. Connected it to PC and was detected normally in My Computer like any other phone. I had no particular Sony drivers installed and no Xperia Companion, only ADB drivers.
I started looking up how to install TWRP, which is the first thing I do on any phone. For some reason, I wasn't able to access fastboot or flashmode on this phone. I tried to access them in adb, but adb wouldn't show the device, even though it appeared in My Computer, had ADB debugging enabled and USB connection type set as MTP File Transfer.
Odd. I installed Xperia Companion, which detected the phone normally, but that didn't make adb work. ̶I̶ ̶t̶r̶i̶e̶d̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶a̶l̶l̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶o̶f̶f̶i̶c̶i̶a̶l̶ ̶d̶r̶i̶v̶e̶r̶ ̶a̶s̶ ̶s̶u̶g̶g̶e̶s̶t̶e̶d̶ ̶e̶v̶e̶r̶y̶w̶h̶e̶r̶e̶,̶ ̶b̶u̶t̶ ̶f̶o̶r̶ ̶s̶o̶m̶e̶ ̶r̶e̶a̶s̶o̶n̶ ̶W̶i̶n̶d̶o̶w̶s̶ ̶w̶o̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶l̶e̶t̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶a̶l̶l̶ ̶i̶t̶.̶ ̶I̶n̶ ̶o̶n̶e̶ ̶m̶e̶t̶h̶o̶d̶,̶ ̶i̶t̶ ̶t̶e̶l̶l̶s̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶"̶T̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶d̶e̶v̶i̶c̶e̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶l̶r̶e̶a̶d̶y̶ ̶u̶s̶i̶n̶g̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶b̶e̶s̶t̶ ̶d̶r̶i̶v̶e̶r̶"̶,̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶H̶a̶v̶e̶ ̶D̶i̶s̶k̶ ̶m̶e̶t̶h̶o̶d̶ ̶t̶e̶l̶l̶s̶ ̶m̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶t̶ ̶"̶T̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶d̶r̶i̶v̶e̶r̶ ̶i̶s̶n̶'̶t̶ ̶c̶o̶m̶p̶a̶t̶i̶b̶l̶e̶ ̶w̶i̶t̶h̶ ̶t̶h̶i̶s̶ ̶d̶e̶v̶i̶c̶e̶"̶,̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶i̶n̶ ̶b̶o̶t̶h̶ ̶c̶a̶s̶e̶s̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶i̶n̶s̶t̶a̶l̶l̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶ ̶f̶a̶i̶l̶s̶.̶
Edit: I successfully installed flashtool drivers as well as the official Sony driver. Still unsuccessful.
I kept reconnecting to different ports and different cables to see if it helps, but I started getting a strange warning on my phone that I've never seen before: "USB devices disabled for using too much power". I ignored it and clicked ok. This showed up twice or 3 times. After that, the phone stopped being detected by My Computer and also Xperia Companion. Windows started warning me upon connecting that "USB Device not recognized".

Edit: Reboot has been fixed with a factory reset via Support > System > Factory reset during the short uptime of the device before it reboots.
This phone is 100% stock, Oreo, latest updates. Zero root exploit attempts have been made. I activated Substratum's Andromeda via PC but Substratum still told me that it didn't work, so I stopped trying. I also side-loaded some APKs (all trusted, none of which on the system partition), but that's about it.
I've also tried connecting it to my laptop with no difference. The exact same behavior, so it's clearly the phone itself.
Clearly, the key to all of this is finding a way to access fastboot and flashmode, but for the life of me I can't get either to work. I follow the instructions and get a red LED that gets stronger if I keep holding down the VOLdwn button and the Sony splash screen followed by the charging animation. VOLup never does anything, it boots normally, unless the power button is also pressed which makes it vibrate 3 times, apparently signaling that the device was powered off.
Also, figuring out why the charging port ("USB Devices") seems to have been disabled (as per the warning message) and how to re-enable it. From what I've read, this typically happens when moisture is detected in the charging port and is done to protect the phone from over-voltage. However I have not used this phone anywhere near water since I've gotten it. And it was initially being detected normally.
I saw some great guides made by @FoxTheLegend and @YasuHamed for this phone and I was hoping they'd be able to lend their experience to help me figure this out. I've never been completely locked out of a device like this in a way that I was completely unable to solve, and I've dealt with Samsung devices with FRP and the 7 day thing.
Update: I installed flashtool drivers, but still not having any luck getting into fastboot or flash mode. The device still shows up as not recognized even when just charging. Same behavior is exhibited in safe mode.
Good morning sir, @Ace2213
thank you for the detailed Recital of your observation but frankly the KEY info which is required for me to make any observation is missing
1. Windows Version ? Win7 x64/32x ?? , w10 ?
2. firewall status? which antivirus/internet security running? or in win10, security essentials were disabled or not?
3. if win10 , has digital driver signatures were put to sleep? or not?
4. flasthtool versions?, drivers installation? , google usb drivers? xperiax Motherboard driver from developer.sonymobile.com ?
5. google adb & minimal fastboot version?
6. Xperia X running on which Stock Version? (Oreo/Nougat) ???
7. in xperia X under services menu > configuration, Unlocking status is allowed or not? but ...
8. as you said you bought it second hand, is the device is already UNLOCKED? & when you boot do u see "THIS DEVICE is UNLOCKED and CANNOT BE TRUSTED" warning from sony for 5 seconds before xperia splash screen?"
my guess is if the device is already unlocked by the time you made purchase, alot have had might happend to it by previous user(s) which ofcourse something mystry now!
so now if the device is totally bricked and non responsive try ..
1. press volume up and power keys for 15 seconds, you should feel 3 jerks (after 1 jerk at 5th second) and this will force device to force shutdown.
2. try installing fresh drivers (for everything) and flash the stock firmware) via flashtool ( read guide thoroughly, as there are many details)
but
if device is totally dead and doing nothing! then do the #RUBBER #BAND trick
1. tie rubber band across Xperia X, in a way that Volume DOWN key is pressed 100% and keep it overnight,, this will force battery drain, & Motherboard to reset
2. after 36 hours , plug mobile to wall charger and leave it for a 24hrs,,,, later see if red led blinks! or appears ,,
3. keep charging , once red led goes off, NOW is the time to connect xperia x to flashmode and flash stock firmware via flashtool!!!

Latest version of flashtool from the website. I installed the first 2 "common" drivers and all Z device drivers (like you suggested on another post). I tried to search for Google drivers, but for Sony, they sent me back to the Sony website for the official driver, which I have "installed", appearing constantly as "Sony sa0114 ADB Interface Driver" with Error Code 10. I'm guessing "motherboard" is the official Sony driver?

No. People are not very tech savvy here and are scared of root.
I cannot use fastboot or flashmode. The result of connecting the cable while pressing down ANY button is the same result as connecting the cable without any button. It almost seems like it doesn't recognize the button presses at all. But PWR+VLUP does work and vibrates 3 times.
Are you familiar with the "USB devices disabled for using too much power" message? I feel like this is a key to understanding the problem.
The other breakthrough would be figuring out why I cannot enter fastboot or flashmode.
Another big question is why my phone is restarting by itself now after I disabled developer options. Did I trip dm-verity or some security thing?
- on win10 when digital signature verification is off along with firewall and security essentials, win10 allows adb/fastboot connections. if you have any other droid, try making connection. if windows fails then its not xperia X you whould be focusing on.
- since you selected on first two of xperia z drivers from flasthool given setup, i would suggest you to rerun it and install all of them! just incase
- also see this https://developer.sony.com/file/download/xperia-x-driver/
- for random reboots issue, reset your device (factory reset) (wipe all data)
- since boot it locked you can repair the device from Xperia companion
- try different usb cable ( ironically / comically, sony's own give cable usually don't connect with flashtool, ) i always use xaiomi or samsung cable to make test connection!
- if device jerks that amazing sign! device is not hard bricked! it might be soft bricked due to some software error! or attempts to root etc
- downgrading to MM to save DRM KEYS is HIGHLY RECOMENDED
but since
- the device is now almost 4 years old and have all of the possible updates! if you don't have drmkeys saved! it doesnt matter! but then if you wana give/sell this device in your country tommorow , for better deal you must relock the bootloader and you need drmkeys to relock the bootloader!

I don't really care about DRM keys, I just want TWRP.
So no idea about the USB port being disabled? Or why I'm unable to access fastboot and flash mode?

sounds like i should get hold of your device to do RND ....
it will be challanging!
at this point i think, (assuming) that the usb port is faulty! it charges for sure but data transfer is not happening.
this happens when local shops repairs usb port if user has damaged it (damage can be usb wire head hard bent while it was plugged it! something that has made port faulty)
can you transfer files to/from device? if no then this might be the case
i am running out of options
YasuHamed said:

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
At the beginning, when the device was detected over USB, I transfered files to\from it. Now, I'm not sure
Like I said, it gave me warning about "USB devices disabled" RIGHT BEFORE it stopped being recognized
Anyone else? I really need my phone back asap since I use it for work
Is there another way to factory reset? In my 2-5 seconds I have inside my phone, I put the Xperia Support app on the home screen and keep restarting to see if I can factory reset within the time limit. Support > System > Factory Reset > Factory Reset > Reset. Powering off the device between boots makes it last a bit longer, but still not enough. The farthest I can get is to entering my pin to confirm factory reset. I enter it, click enter and everything freezes again.
Could this be hardware related? The top right corner gets a bit warm and this whole situation is starting to remind me of the Nexus 5X. This is also a hot country. Maybe if I try using it inside a freezer I'll be able to factory reset.
If not, is there another way to factory reset that would be faster to access through the system? Or an easy key combination or hardware action (like disconnecting a component)? This phone doesn't look easy to disassemble though
If I can factory reset I should at least (hopefully) fix the bootloop and be able to re-enable dev options, OEM unlock and ADB debugging.
UPDATE: I INITIATED THE FACTORY RESET! I was fast enough using the above steps and triggered it. The phone reset and the reboots finally stopped. The OEM unlock option is disabled, which means I was right. I did trip a security feature. In Samsung devices, when this happens, you need to wait 7 days for the option to reappear. Is there a workaround for Xperia devices?
Update: I was able to enable OEM unlocking by long pressing on the option.
I tried to access fastbood and flashmode, same as before. I connected it to the PC in normal mode and the PC recognized it, configured it then showed "Xperia X". The phone prompted me to install Xperia Companion. I clicked install and it opened the Xperia Companion on my PC which was already installed, but it didn't detect the phone. Windows still saying "device not recognized". Still no "USB Connection Type" notification. USB Connection still disabled under Settings > Connectivity > USB, saying "Not Connected".
I noticed the tip of the charger getting very warm while charging (maybe because it's loose and keeps coming off?) and the bottom of the phone near the charging port sort of seems warm on the inside.
I'm using Motorola's Turbo Wall charger. Is it possible that the current is too high? My device charged to 94% over USB while I was trying to fix it yesterday, so it clearly has no issue with low-watt charging.
The reason I'm mentioning it is because I've read that Sony can disable "USB devices" if moisture is detected to protect from over-voltage. Is it possible that this happened in my case even without moisture, but simply because a too-powerful charger was used?
Did you get any solvings for ur Xperia X issue?

Greeting dude,
My friend have Sony Xperia X Dual (F5122) phone, and about 2 months ago he got problems with sound (phone doesn't play any sound and record voices, sometimes restarting phone helps, but only for a couple hours ) i guessed that problem with OS because he was step by step upgrading Android from 6.0 till 8.0 and then got this problem. By problem with sound he got "Warranty Time Service" message in top of phone. Then i suggested him to fully reinstall OS, i have read instruction how to flashh phone, but i got same issue as you. I couldn't put phone to fastboot, it just charging, that's all. Computer doesn't recognize him like any new device. I used almost 5 different cables that i use for my Samsung Galaxy phone. All cable are workable and many times i flash and tranfer datas with them. I don't know really how to fix this issue.
I was able to get a screenshot of this error. Happened while using a Motorola 2.1A quick charger. Also came up a couple of times before it stops, but the phone was undetected before and after.
I'm honestly disappointed in the lack of community support for this device. I'm going to sell it and get an XZ1. Hopefully that one is better supported. If not, at the very least it runs Pie and will run Q.

Password Locked VIVO Y69 not able to detected by PC ,despite installing drivers.

Found a password locked device : VIVO Y69. MTK6750. i tried to unlock it using Tools such as MRT, Miracle box and others but was Unsuccessful. the problem is that , my PC/Laptop was unable to detect it.... yes, i have already installed all the necessary MTK drivers, such as DA USB, Vcom , Preloader and so on .....
well, when i connect the device to the USB ports, it shows the "Charged only" sign to the battery icon on the device without making a sound or detecting it , not in the Device Manager.
i think the owner puts the device to "Charged only option"...
Any idea to make it detect, i mean like the Test Point or something.
Thank you all..
K4bini.

You found that phone?
If it's not yours you should find the owner instead of trying to unlock the phone.
Just imagine if this happened to you.
If you are doing the right thing, try to see if the owner put some of his information to the emergency information of the device.
When the phone is on the lockscreen
1. Swipe up.
2. Click "EMERGENCY" on the bottom.
3. Double tap "EMERGENCY INFORMATION"
And you should see if the owner put anything in there.
This processes might be different depending on the custom OEM skin.

Click to collapse
there's no emergency information on the device, and yes , the process of accessing emergency information varies on devices... besides, i search and research the internet, and no one have experienced what i had. i will try and figured out myself and post a story on xda once successful.
