I bought this S6 edge Sprint like others I purchased.
There were 4 in number and I unlocked 3 of them, I noticed that last one wasn't recognized by my pc rather it only charge. I tried different USB cables still no progress.
I ended up buying new USB port, after replacement yet it only charge.
My question,
1. Is there a way to root the phone without using usb port so it can enable me to get it unlocked?
2. What is the actual problem with the phone other than USB port?
Thanks
There is no way to do it.....You need to have the usb port make a data connection to the PC at least once in download mode to flash a custom recovery then you can simply download the rooted kernel over the internet to the phone then flash in the recovery
Maybe it's your PC? Ever tried another USB Port/PC?
it's from phone. my laptops are ok
Hello people,
i got a small problem. I just bought a sm-g925F and be very happy with it so far. Well the problem is, that i can't connect to the phone via USB to flash another FW because 6.0 isnt aviable for switzerland (AUT) now. For those who think they maybe got a solution: impossible. I already tried everything in every forum. I tried different cables, different PCs, download mode, usb debugging, different drivers, manual set drivers, exit silent mode, wipe device, apply a new usb port on the device (im not that shure if they really did it).
Win 10 gave me a message, that its unable to get informations about the connected hardware. For me there are two solutions: 1. Hardware device of the device core PCB, 2. the Firmware is broken somehow.
ANYWAY i dont want a solution for that. Im just ask if its possible to flash another firmware for example via Wireless Lan oder an SD Card, connected to the S6 via USB adapter.
I am thankful for every reply
Kind regards
Same problem here, USB was working 100% then I got the 6.0.1 beta and now I can't get USB at all.. Are you on the beta?

Nope, i did a usual update to 5.1.1 when i got my phone.
if the device is still working...dial *#0808# and select MTP+ADB and try if u can flash the new FW you want to flash.
Mtp+adb was already selected
May i change these settings?
Get usb otg cable, and push firmware as adb or put zip rom on usb and browse the connected usb via otg in twrp

Hey guys i just got my S6 back!
I gave it to a samsung partner after some phones with the samsung service. They wasnt able to fix this problem. So i decided to give it away to repair it. It took 6 days(!!) whats amazingly fast and they installed a new main pcb, usb slot and another thing (dont know the part name) and it works fine now!
Thanks for all your help.
Hello guys i'll try to keep my explanation short.
Device Samsung S6 Edge (rooted)
Not detected by ANY PC anymore, HOWEVER it does charge.
I Tried 5 different cables (new, original, old) cables do work so does the main PC
as my other devices are detected.
I have deleted KIES, SMART SWITCH , DRIVERS and reinstalled in the same order.
So, i flashed the S6 back to stock using TWRP (S6 was running Custom Rom XtrestoLite).
Still nothing, so i deleted all my files from the phone and flashed it back to stock again.
Still nothing, so i wiped the complete OS off the S6.
Now i'm here.
Try to change the usb mode it may can help

That's impossible as i've said my S6 has no rom and Computers do not detect the S6.

Tell me the status for now, S6 is running on stock or custom??
enable usb debugging and install usb driver again, also check in another pc/laptop whether they are detecting it or not.
Use Original cable and give a shot This might help you.
Also head over to Samsung's ofifcial Developer website and fetch the Samsung USB Driver pack which is about 15MB.
That generally solves the issue. Atleast for me!
I had the same problem think the usb board is damaged... you should replace it.
It was running a custom rom, but now the phone has no rom. I can only into download mode or TWRP and thats it.
So there are no options available on the phone itself.
I tried kies driver, smart switch driver, seperate driver from samsung website, i've also tried clockwork samsung driver. Nothing works for me.
Maybe it's the micro usb port that is damaged, but i highly doubt that.

Highly improbably that the USB board is damaged. Try different cables and before that, try it on a different PC. Sometimes it does work. My friend's S6 wouldn't read in Download Mode on my PC but it did on his.
Also head over to Run on your PC and type devmgmt.msc and check if there are any drivers missing.
I think the problem is the drivers
Install new drivers or find other samsung ... and try again
i've installed many drivers including the one that is 15,3mb in size.
guys it's not the computer because it does detect my tablet and my s7.
which also means that it's not the cables and believe me i have tried many cables about 8 cables now .
it's not the drivers, i dont know what it could be.
i think i'll order a new micro usb port and try that out eventhough i know that the usb port can't be damaged.
Unless one of you has a better idea, you are welcome to share.
Update: Hi guys, i've replaced the port but the phone is still undetectable by any computer.
Does anyone know what's wrong with this device?
Seriously, is there NO ONE of you guys with any knowledge or what?
I was going to say your usb charge port is damaged enough that it will charge but not transmit data but i re-read your post and realized you can't have a charge port issue if you able were able to flash stock rom. If you have teamviewer, pm me and i'll try to help you.
I have had this issue before in the past. Turned out that the cable was at fault. Swapped it and everything worked as expected, computer found it once again.
If it's not the cables as you claim, then you may have to ship it to samsung and request a replacement device.
no response when connecting devices and usb flash drives. cable and everything else checked in redmi note 4 and samsung s7 - everything works.
Fix usb otg on rom global 7.3.2 with easy guide here. I hope its work to you hxxp://hp-cdma.blogspot.co.id/2017/04/mengatasi-masalah-usb-otg-pada-redmi.html?m=1
Hello
I made a thread on reddit in the subreddit of my ROM (/r/LineageOS/comments/cccbtu/pc_does_not_detect_xiaomi_redmi_note_4/) regarding my issue and they recommended that I come here (I hope that's the right place.)
In summary, the notification that usually shows when I plug in my phone, to change the USB configuration from charging to MTP, does not show.
I've tried everything I can think of (different ports, PCs, cables, etc.) and nothing seems to help.
"adb devices" shows no devices both on normal boot and TWRP. The only thing the cable does is charge.
I'd be very happy to fix it.
Thank you!
First it's a software issue so the hardware is fine
Second i suggest getting an sd card with the official stock rom on it (version 10.1.1.0) to fix the reading error since it can't be readed even on twrp
If the problem still presists
I suggest to change the cable or the phone socket
Try another cable then see
