Redmi Note 3 USB port not working

The USB port of my Redmi Note 3 (SD) isn't working. I am only able to charge my device via the USB port. When I connect it to PC, the menu (to choose Charging/MTP/.....) doesn't show and my PC shows "USB not recognized". I even can't connect my flash drive via OTG cable. I also tried trying to connect a mouse but it doesn't work.
The problem doesn't end here. Sometimes, the menu shows up occassionally when I connect the phone to PC and then it works absolutely fine. I can transfer files to the phone and even the mouse works. But on reboot, I lose it again.
I tried clean flashing the ROM too but it worked only once.
PS: I'm using Resurrection Remix 2017-03-05 build with Radon kernel.
Don't know if it's the same that happened to me a while back, but I solved it by carefully cleaning the USB port with the SIM extractor (can't remember the name). Hope it works for you too.

bricked AML8726MX tv box HD18

originally came in with a @9 startup logo, nothing else.
Tried the Matricom rescue, sd wih the HDDGURU burner, again, Matricom logo stuck.
Tried another, cant remeber, but, aml8726 HD18 compatable, and now got a black screen, unable to sd rescue, with any other rescue firmware or method!.
I do not need to push the reset button when connected to various versions of the Amlogic burning tool, I get HUB connected, strange?
But, when trying to burn with various firmware, the tool stops at 2%DDR with this messege:
[0x10105002]Romcode/InitializeDDR/Read initialise status/USB Control setup error
and remains in a loop! . I have tried to Maskrom, shorting pins 5 and 6, no change! Tried different USB cables, and USB sockets, to no vail
The box does not show up as a connected device on My Computer (Windows 10), but I get a sound that it is connected.
The box is not detected by other tools, like Moboro, Airdroid, Phoenix Suite,Iroot
The World Cup drivers are installed !
When the box is connected only with USB, not the power supply, the blue light is on and get a sound as if connected, without resetting the reset switch.
Any comments please ?

Hisense u989 Pro - No OS installed

Hi,
I have a Hisense u989 pro with a custom recovery installed, I performed a restore from a previous backup. After completed, when wanting to reboot, I saw a msg "No OS installed, leaving the phone connected to my pc and charging via usb, my wife needed a usb cable and unplugged my phone. when I returned some time later the phone was completely dead.
Some issues: Phone not charging or switching on, cant boot into recovery or fastboot, sp flash tool not detecting phone via usb cable, tried different usb cables, cleaned the micro usb charging port. left phone connected to charger for over 24hrs and still nothing. Im unsure whether it could be the charging port or the battery.
Ive got the hisense u989 pro stock rom, i just need it to switch on. Any advise or assistance to resolve my phone issue will be appreciated.\
thanking you

Is my A95X MAX box dead?

I tried to flash the ATV Xperience rom using the steps shown in the Youtube tutorial, but I could never get the USB Burning Tool to even recognize my box. It's not the tool per se, but that my computer never sees a USB connection when connecting the A95X MAX OTG port to my PC. So here's a list of stuff I've tried:
1) Connect the OTG port of the A95X MAX (the USB 2.0 port next to the HDMI) and connected that into the Amlogic's Burning Tool, device does not show up in the list, no power plug.
2) Connect the OTG port of the A95X MAX, with power plug. Device still does not show up.
3) Connected HDMI from TV to the A95X MAX, held down reset button inside the A/V 3.5mm port, plugged in the DC plug, kept holding it down, never saw recovery.
4) Box used to boot after a long wait, but it doesn't even boot anymore.

missing the driver for your android box.
reinstall usb burning tool, it should ask to install a "worldcup" driver as well.
some Android boxes dont like USB 3 (Cable or ports)
Thanks for the suggestions, none of them worked, I pulled the damn thing apart and reflowed the usb connectors and its ESD diodes.
Chinese designed anything is just absolute garbage, learned my lesson with Teclast and Amax, won't be repeating this again, gonna give my money to Samsung from here on out, their software isn't great, but they can make some damn fine hardware...
Watch this installation guide video, if you want to install ATV Xperience without PC/LAPTOP.

Suggestions for un-bricking my AZW W95 (S905W) TV box

I've been booting LibreELEC/CoreELEC from SD card on my AZW (Beelink) W95 (S905W) box for years now. Yesterday I tried booting into the stock Android system (7.1 I think- I haven't done it for a while) but it wouldn't boot. Not being one to leave well enough alone I decided to try a reset using a toothpick in the reset hole by the power plug. It flashed the start screen for a split second and then stopped. After that it wouldn't boot off the CoreELEC SD card either.
I've tried a clean CoreELEC install, stock firmware, Amlogic Burn Card Maker, and TWRP on the SD card - none of them get me past a black screen.
I don't think the reset button is doing anything (I depress it while plugging in the power jack). In fact, I don't know if it ever worked. My box had previously always booted off a SD card if it was inserted in the slot without having to do anything special.
My box isn't completely dead but comatose. The signs of life are:
1) The blue LED comes on when I plug in the power cord.
2) After about 20 minutes or so the blue LED will go off. If I press the power button on the remote it comes back on.
3) My router sees it on my network as active. But I get connection refused when I try access it using Windows File Explorer or try to SSH into it using Putty.
4) When I insert a SD card into the slot it writes Andriod and LOST.DIR folders to it.
I haven't tried the Amlogic USB Burning Tool yet because I don't have an USB 2.0 Type A male to male cable - but I've ordered one. My concern is I won't be able to put it in reset mode since I'm not sure the reset button does anything (but I can feel it click).
Is there anything else I should try while I'm waiting for my cable to arrive?
Any recommendations on how I should proceed once my cable arrives?
Thanks

Hi, your device seems to be in a strange state currently, only thing i can reccomend is trying a few firmwares to see what works for you, you should be able to flash most s905w based roms, if your device cant be detected by USB burn tool you might need to use ask Rom Mode" to force your box to be detected by burn tool, this makes it almost impossible to brick a box
Thanks for the suggestions, I'm a complete newbie at this.
Is the Ask ROM Mode an option in USB Burning Tool?
I have an OEM W95 firmware update file (in both .img and and an OTA in .zip format) but they may be older than what is currently on the box. I also found a TWRP file for the S905W. But I don't know how to use any of these.
I downloaded the AMLogic Tools 6.0.0 and tried the AMLogic Flash Tool since it seems to work through the Ethernet port. I assumed this because you access the box via an IP address but I really don't know. I watched the video but couldn't find any detailed instructions on how to use it.
When I pressed the Connect button it said it connected and I had the green Connected display (I was connecting through my LAN - I don't know if I should connect directly with an ethernet cable). I loaded my .img file and said Flash. It says it is flashing and a second or so later it says SUCCESS! However the box still doesn't boot. I tried both Boot and Recovery (I don't know which option I should choose). I think that the SUCCESS! message is incorrect since I get the message even if I press the Flash button without the box connected. However, I can't connect to the box without the ethernet cable connected so the connected message seems correct.
Am I using the AMLogic Flash Tool correctly?
I was thinking about trying the S905W atvExperience ROM but thought I'd wait until I got my USB cable before before doing something more drastic.
Any other suggestions?
Thanks
OK, so my male to male USB cable arrived and I managed to get my box un-bricked using AMLogic USB Burning tool with a factory .img file. It took several tries. I kept getting errors when it tried to erase the bootloader or would get to 7%, progress would stop for about a minute, and then Burning Tool would close.
I finally got it to proceed all the way by holding in the reset button, plugging in the USB cable (no power cable), and keeping the reset button pushed the whole time (I don't know if this was just a coincidence). Also, I hadn't closed Burning Tool after the previous error erasing the bootloader. I'm posting all this in case someone else has a similar problem.
After that, it still wouldn't boot of the CoreELEC SD card with the reset button pushed down. It would go straight into the Android OS. I got it to boot into CoreELEC by installing the Reboot to LibreELEC app. Now it always restarts in CoreELEC the way it used to when the SD card is left in. I think this is how I got LibreELEC working years ago.
So, now I'm contemplating installing atvXperience but I have a couple of questions:
What would be the best way to install atvXperience without being able to the reset button to put the box into recovery mode?
What would be the best way to prepare for not being able to use the reset button to put the box into recovery mode if something were to go wrong during flashing?
Thanks for any help.

Thanks for any help.
Another follow up post for anyone with the same problem. I did some searching and found out I'm not the only one with a box that the reset button doesn't work. A work around for them was to connect the male to male USB cable, load the image into Burning Tool, press Start, and then plug in the power supply. The image file would then start flashing.
However, my box would start booting as soon as I connected the USB cable (didn't need the power supply). So I loaded the image into Burning Tool, pressed Start, and then connected the USB cable. This appears to be the work around for my box (I probably did this when I got my box to recover the first time - holding the reset button was probably irrelevant).
This procedure works for the stock firmware but when I try to flash the atvXperience image file the box hangs at 7%. So I still need some help there.
Also, is there a ATV ROM better suited for my S905W box (2/16 GB)?
W95 is really ****ing box whenever you feel you get off from the current problem will be into next one.
I have installed atvx Rom but afterthat when I tried adian rom my device bricked.
Without Ubt flashing it's connect but as I start flash it's sound unknown device and give flash error
