USB not working, but no physical damage? About to warranty your phone? - Epic 4G General

I was. But a stroke of luck brought me to stumble upon the solution. If your USB connections won't work for crap... do this at a terminal emulator. No root or custom kernel needed.
Code:
echo 1 > /sys/class/sec/switch/FactoryResetValue
You're welcome.
Thanks to UberPinguin for his kernel patch to enable kernel messages over USB, which led me to check out the other items in that directory.
EDIT: It's 7am and I haven't slept yet. I thought I posted this in general. Post reported.
EDIT2: This method isn't guaranteed and may not work more than once.
EDIT3: And for those wondering, my device is not back in service yet - this method worked once, then the problem changed.

Awesome konane. LOL about your posts edit though. GO TO BED!!!

Epic Stuck on DK28

Have you guys tried using a different cable other than the samsung stock one? I've been having USB issues forever on various computers/OS's and NO ONE on the entire internet knows how to solve this--all leading to unknown device. I tried a different cable and suddenly it worked...I haven't seen my folder pop up via USB since I first got the phone until that.

I have tried upwards of 6 different cables (Blackberry, HTC, Motorola, and other random ones) and none of them have worked.

I had this problem on my phone and sent it in to Samsung. I wasn't able to get the device to recognize on the computer (checked with multiple cables, machines, lspci, etc). It was covered by warranty, but I went without a phone for over a week. This is what Samsung's repair log said:
REPLACED CONNECTOR AND U606
I'm not sure what the U606 is, and was not able to identify it in the teardown here:
www(dot)chipworks(dot)com/en/technical-competitive-analysis/resources/recent-teardowns/2010/09/teardown-of-the-samsung-epic-4g-smart-phone/
Since receiving my phone, I haven't seen the problem again.

Have you guys tried this?
Its crude but worked for me. All my phone was doing was charging, no mass storage, no usb debugging, etc. A little poke and like magic, I was back in business. I recommend using a guitar pic

When you mention that you moved the center slightly down. Does that mean more towards the center or towards the upper edge?
I guess either way this didn't help me

This fix worked for me...used a small leafing knife and just kinda wedged the middle pins slightly up and "out" of the Jack...charging normal, computer reads now...YeEeEaAAA
For anyone who fry's this...just very lightly "baby bump" the prongs....they are very weak and snap off VERY easily....hence the original problem

Ok. Thanks.
I'll try it again when I get home tonight. I dont really notice any of the small pins within the device... Mine might already be broken off.

I tried. Moved it up towards the top of the device. Nothing... probably SOL

[Q] usb debugging failed

USB debugging no longer activates on my phone. Activating it in settings/applications/development brings up the "Allow USB debugging?" permission window. However, no usb notifications appear, and the phone appears to be a dead device to any PC it is connected to.
This started when I accidently got into the download screen from the phone options popup. The display showed the yellow sign, android guy with shovel, and message warning not to turn target off. Phone was not connected to anything at the time.
Searching found a couple of threads indicating that a battery pull was safe to get out of it. Did same.
Since then, usb debugging (or usb anything) has been dead on this phone. Other methods of usb access (thru usb settings) have no effect either.
Tried the following...
(1) restore to my last backup rom.
(2) numerous reboots and battery pulls.
(3) mount/unmount sd card in cwm recovery
(4) clear caches
(5) changed pc's and cables (all worked before)
(6) reinstalled usb drivers on pc (worked before, didn't expect it to help since issue is at phone end)
As you can see, I'm running out of sticks to poke the horse with. Does anyone have any ideas?
Update: new kernel didn't help, either
Update2:
(a) Can't do a restore via odin, which won't detect the phone.
(b) Updated my adb (which I don't use much). adb devices command will not detect the phone via usb.
(c) Installed adbWireless which allowed me to push a stock nandroid backup to the phone. Restored that, usb is still dead.
(d) Restored back to my superdark rom, usb is still dead.
Head scratch: I'd blame hardware except that it seems to be between the settings and execution. If it was purely hardware, I'd expect to see the usual usb notifications. Regardless, it looks like I'll have to revert back to stock and let Verizon figure it out.
Update3:
(a) switched to the new AOSP rom. Nice, but no usb.
(b) switched back to superdark since I like my speakerphone and the AOSP seems to be on hold. Still no usb.
Resolution:
My apologies for not posting a resolution. My bad. After the first few days the post kind of fell off the radar and I stopped checking.
Short version...dirty usb port.
Details...after a week or so, I saw the usb icon flash in the notification bar for a few seconds when I plugged it in for a recharge. Hadn't seen that in a week, hope springs eternal!
A thorough cleaning of the usb port using a paper swab dampened with alcohol restored usb functionality. Not much dirt came out on the paper, but it must have been enough to probably bridge the contacts somehow.
At present the phone is fully functional. The original Verizon cable seems to be a little wonky. I have an aftermarket cable that works fine. It may be that the aftermarket cable did some physical harm to the contacts in the port, or the original cable is going bad (I had something very similar happen on my Omnia). Not sure.
I now use the original verizon cable only for charging at work and use the aftermarket cable for usb connecting at home.
Bottom line...if your usb goes dead as described in the op, carefully clean the port.
My thanks to all who responded...
Download screen shouldn't have harmed you.
You probably are well aware of this, but sometimes it's the simplest solution: Is your usb cable unplugged when you are trying to turn on USB debugging? It will not let you if you are plugged into a pc or mounted for some other reason. Make sure your file manager and any other rogue app is closed. Again, it does sound like you have tried all of this, just giving my best shot ar an answer.
Other then that... Has anyone else had this problem? I haven't seen it in this forum before.
The most general solution to any issue on these fascinates is to undo whatever you did to break it, it's just difficult sometimes to isolate what that event was.
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
Thanks for the reply.
USB is unplugged when turning on debugging. I've also tried turning the phone on with usb plugged in.
The last thing I had done (before accidently activating the download screen) was to install SiMi Folder Widget. Needless to say, it went away with the rom restore.
Also used ATK to kill running processes before turning on usb debugging. Also verified that I still have root.
I've buggered the phone up before but have always been able to figure out a way back (with help from forum searches). This one's got me stuck.
Tonight I'll try to figure out if it can be odin'd back to stock and rebuild from there.
Again, thanks. All suggestions/advice are appreciated.
See op for steps taken to (unsuccessfully) solve this.
Can anyone advise how I can flash back to stock DI01 without using odin, since it won't detect the phone? I can push files to the phone via adbWireless but that's about it.
thanx in advance...
I dont know if you fixed it or not, but here is a stupid question. Are you using the cable that came with your phone? I have several cables that will only charge my phone and only the stock one enables data transfer. Hope this helps. Good luck

common problem
This must be a common problem because I've had the same issue. switched cables and viola, all good.
My exact problem solved:
USB debugging activated on phone but computer did not detect it at all, nothing what so ever. Not even on dial-up mode, or download-Odin (yellow triangle).
Drivers installed (Fascinated and Nexus for the hell of it).
Tried to ADB my into it both from windows 7 and MAC OS-X.
Hell I even tried a different USB cord.
I would get the USB debug icon in the status bar only when on windows7 machine.
I cleaned the phones USB port with the alcohol damped paper towel/tooth pick and the **** worked, first time.
Man I gotta thanks God for this site. I been ****ing with for 2 days.
Then this lil SOB acted as if nothing ever happen. I wanted to beat the hell out the lil ****er. But we are back friends now.
Thanks dude. This **** needs publicized more. I went through a few links before I found this.
I would and tell people to use something non-metallic and removed the battery beforehand. I did just to be safe.

Yesterday my Phone became an unrecognized USB device

After months of no problems yesterday I plugged my phone in for its nightly charge and noticed that it did not trigger the usual USB mount prompt.
I assumed it was Windows, but I have a bunch of machines and operating systems so I checked and they all has the same result. I switched out cords and did a complete power reset (taking battery out) no change.. The Phone charges through the USB but the computers say "unrecognized usb device" and cannot mount the phone as a drive and the phone does not offer the option as it used to???
I don't recall getting any sort of update that might have related to this?
This is the original T-mobile version
This happens to me all the time. However a restart of my phone and computer solves the issue.

How do you do that without USB connectivity?
It is very frustrating, maybe a hardware fail? I see just enough post relating to the issue that makes me know it is real but not sure how to resolve,, Do we have to go to Best Buy? or is there a direct Samsung route?
This too happens to me. Whenever I plug it into my laptop on the top USB slot, it doesn't recognize it. If I plug it in on the bottom USB slot, it does. Not sure why. This, however, is only the case if I'm using a different USB cable than the one that came with the phone itself. Once again, not sure why.
Perhaps you are using an alternative USB? Or plugging in on the top? Not sure how I can help you more than that, sorry. Hope you find a fix!

Using official OEM cable that came with the phone. And, again, USB worked fine until I manually installed 2.3.4.
Well It is off to Samsung for repair
After time on phone with them and a factory reset belief is that the usb connector is defective. BTW Best Buy just hands off to Samsung 1-800 #
So Back to a barely functional G-1 for a while, glad I could find it!

Phone stuck on USB/charging... very weird

Hey there. I have my Galaxy S II (GT-I9100) for about a month, and since a couple of days ago it has been behaving very weirdly about USB and charging.
First of all, the phone thinks it has USB connected at all times. When I go to the settings menu try to enable mass storage it says USB is already connected, even though it isn't!!!
Sometimes when I start the phone it goes to that USB Kies screen and says "connected", when absolutaly no cables are connected AT ALL!!!
When I turn the cell off, remove the battery and plug it back in, without turning the phone on, the recharging battery icon appears, but blinks with a drained battery icon with a yellow exclamation sign and a thermometer which I sincerely have no idea what that means.
It also takes ages to recognize the power charger or when I really connect the USB cable. And finally, when I take them off, it also takes a while to "perceive" they're off and remove the charging lightning from the battery icons.
PRETTY PLEASE, SOMEONE HELP ME OUT, as I don't have time to take the phone to service, and didn't really want to do that
Thanks!!!
This has also happened to me and loads of other SGS2 users! Although usually it only happens sporadically and not constantly. It seems that it's a bad soldering job or dust/dirt has gathered in the microUSB port. You might be able to fix it, if you're *really* careful.

Last night my phone wouldn't even start charging, so I decided to take matters into my own hands. With the smallest screwdriver I could find, I carefully 'lifted' the tiny PCB in the USB jack while blowing in at the same time. Sure enough, some sand particles fell out, and I haven't gotten carmode'd in nearly 13 hours now. Previously it would do it once every 15 minutes. So far so good, it seems.

There is no reason to be angry, I'm just trying to help, and just wanted that we all post in one thread, so it would be easier to track later.

I'm pretty sure you have the same problem. Sometimes Vlingo starts, sometimes phone thinks its charging, when trying to boot it shows battery image and won't boot, can boot only recovery and do restart from there.
Get of the high horse when people are trying to help you.
Are you sure you didn't connect USB cable upside down or bended USB port with the cable?
I have no idea what Vlingo is, and obviously I didn't connect the USB cable upside down. I don't think I bended the port with the cable since it still recognizes the cable for charging or booting and going directly into Kies mode, for example.
I am not on any high horse when people try to help me, as you could see my response towards the guys above. Your post wasn't sounding helpful at all, you were just sounding like "hey, you dumass noobie, don't open a new thread for yourself, check the forums first".
By the way, I also took a look at that thread you posted before posting mine, but I have no idea what is "car mode" on my phone...
Sorry if I sounded rough. I thought it is similar issue, so I posted link to longer thread. I had this issue myself.
Peace. Let us know what the service say .
This happened to me one week ago while on holiday....that temp indicator while charging plus the other stuff you mention....
Plus the phone went into flight mode and won't come out....
Got home and did a reset and phone now doesn't recognise sim card...

Hello,
Had the same problems aswell, only mine had a bunch of other problems aswell:
When I shut down my mobile it restarts itself and then shows a yellow exclamation mark with an tempgage. Only way to turn on my phone is to connect it with the charger, turn of my phone again, remove the charger and then the phone turned itself on again but without the temp gage.
My phone also thinks its charging when it is not, and when I am actually charging it, its not charging.
Also my PC does not recognize my phone so I am not able to update it.
I have also sent my phone for a repair, I will keep you guys posted.
greets from the netherlands
Yep, mine only got fixed by going into service. It got its mainboard warranty switched.

How did you guys get it fixed? Did you have to ship the phone out somewhere? How long did you have to wait to get it back? What was the process?
Thanks.
Mine is going to be repaired in two weeks.
I was the 8th SGS2 since tuesday which came in the repair center.
The repair guy said it is a manifacturing fault.
The phone gets hots, and outside temperature is cold, so it makes moisture in the phone.
This cause the phones power management to get fu up (SGS2 has a small battery inside of it, and that gets fu up). Only fix is replace hardware, but 9 of 10 times Samsung gives the fault to the customer. They say it has water damage and can't be fixed in warrenty...
I'm going to write a huge article about it, and I hope it will get published by a lot of site's soon. Phones he admitted having the problem: SGS1, SGS2 and SGSN.
I charged my GS2 2x by USB and it's discharged faster than by the sector
The USB power isn't enough for charge up the GS2 correctly
Are you guys suffering from rapid battery discharging, i have all of the above symptons but my battery drains within hours...I`ve even bought a brand new battery off ebay that is exacly the same issues... I`d like to send it back to O2 but i`ve rooted and flashed custom firmware...

Big voice talk problem and car mode notification

Ok so maybe I spoke too soon. Yesterday I was telling my brother that the Note is the most reliable phone I've ever owned.....then....
I started having issues with charging. My Note would not charge, then it would change after several resets. It would charge, then stop, then start again etc etc....making a lot of beeping noises.
Now, it seems to be charging, but Voice talk keeps loading, and I've turned off the home key activation option. I also get the notification icon saying to disable car mode.
I really hope someone can help, thanks in advance.
kris
Great, now it's not charging, again!
Actually when I get the notification issue from Voice talk, the battery starts charging for a second until the notification disappears and stops charging....
Now factory reset my phone again and charging worked while restarting and restoring but when loaded the voice talk app keeps coming up and going off, so I have a black flashing screen constantly....gonna try restarting/reset without restoring...
Hi leicashot, this shouldn't happen. Which firmware version are you currently running? I recommend installing the latest LB1 stock, unless you have AT&T Note.
Some users have reported similar symptoms when there was dust in the mini usb port. Try cleaning the device, and if all else fails, you should send it back to Samsung for repair.

I'm using the latest 2.6.35.7. Any idea how to try clean the port? Definitely seems like something is wrong with the port....
No charging issues for me but my Note started doing the driving mode thing at about 3am today and has been doing it on and off all day!
Exceedingly annoying!
are you trying to charge from a PC or a wall outlet?
I usually charge via mains but it wasn't charging or even plugged in at the time this started happening. It was just sitting on the table by my bed. I even powered it off but it switched itself back on!
Here is how to fix it.
Take out the battery and take a plastic edge like credit card or even a regular tiny small screwdriver and push the pins (strip) inside the phone. I mean, to take the screw driver and push in the pins back inside the phone, in inside the usb charging port. your problem will disappear. make sure your plastic flexible after-market phone cover has a big enough hole at the bottom to allow you to connect a usb cable easily to the phone, or else, cut open a bigger hole on the cover.
Good luck
so here it is again: you have to push in the usb port pins back inside the phone, straight in without bending them. you can also buy a usb charging port from ebay for 22 bucks and change it yourself in 10 minutes. its a hardware problem so stop resetting your phone.
Nop bro i dont think so, cuz it happened same with me sometime after i bought galaxy note same thing happened with me too. I mean exactly same.

Indeed. I remain convinced this is not hardware and is software related. The main reason for my thoughts there are that as well as the driving mode thing it seems that some piece of software is trying to load up as it asks me if I want to run whatever it is in either Clock or TuneIn Radio. Bizarre. Also, the first time it happened it was bang on 3am. Everytime I turned the phone off it would come back on exactly two minutes later.
The second night it started doing it bang on 1am.
I'm waiting to see what time it starts tonight.
It doesn't (so far) do it at all during the day.
Going to give it a couple of days to see what happens then go figure out how to go back to a factory ROM rather than the the Rocket 22 I have on here now.

I've been having the same problem for a few days now.
I've just pushed the pins in with the corner of my charging cables connector and the problem stopped.
There was also a notification that flashed up saying something like: USB connector or device removed.
Voice talk is still managing to launch itself, even after pushing the pins in. I'm on stock LB2 so maybe I've finally found a reason to flash a GB rom?
Happened to me yesterday. Got a toothbrush and cleaned usb port on phone. Now seems ok

Unfortunately, you may have fried a component on the usb board.
This can happen if you have the usb c inserted in the phone and then plug the A side into the power block.
You can order a new card here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/162671342875?ul_noapp=true If you live near a large city you should be a to find a cell repair shop that can install it for you, should cost more then $50 to $60 dollars or you can send your phone to these guys for repair for probably close to the same price http://leecoservicecenter.com/
Perhaps you can get the usb to computer working by trying this: ( worked for me)
Make sure that your computer is up to date with its usb drivers.
shut down the computer and remove all peripherals, keep unplugged except for keyboard and mouse.
restart
Boot your phone into recovery, and plug your usb cable into one of the computers primary usb ports: usually in the back.
Wait to see if your computer recognises the device.
If it doesn't and you use Windows go to Device Manager
In the Start menu, right-click Computer | Manage, then expand Computer Management on the console tree and select System Tools | Device Manager
In the Start menu, right-click Computer Properties, then click Device Manager on the left pane
Control Panel | Device Manager
Control Panel | Hardware and Sound | Device Manager
Look for the usb card. see if your device is listed there, and update the drivers. Heres a step by step : https://www.drivereasy.com/knowledge/how-to-fix-unknown-devices/
Try multiple cords, and another computer if needed.
It's also possible that the board is temporarily disabled.
Since your phone still charges, the reverse polarity protection that is programmed into the chips have shut down certain components. Perhaps the phone is not actually damaged. But in a protection mode.
Try letting your battery go completely dead, use it until it shuts down, keep restarting it until it has no power left.
With all power removed from the battery, the reverse polarity protection should reset and your next charge and hopefully the phone will be back to normal.
I hope this helps.
Well, this is worrying news. I wonder how common this issue is, or what it's caused by--a bad non-Benson approved cable? A bad USB-C port? Cements the fact that it's safer to use a USB-C to USB-C cable (provided your computer has a USB-C port) rather than a USB-C to USB-A one... now I miss Micro USB's simplicity.

Have you try boot into Fastboot mode? Hold Power button + Volume down and connect phone to pc with type-c cable.
I have Le Max2 x829, Le Pro3 x720,x722 never have any issue, I bought phone from Bangood, x720 locally.

Yes, the the X720 and the X727 are identical, the difference is the firmware.
So a board advertised as X720 will work.

There is still hope: You haven't had the chance to retry once the battery is fully discharged, it may work.
I used to work for Apple Support and I have personally used that as a solution, many times to resolve open support cases. With iPhones that had the exact same issue.
After it's all sorted out. Be sure to buy high quality replacement cables that come with a warranty. I replaced all of the usb c cables my house with new ones that are IF certified. i read about others having this exact issue months ago and I procrastinated.
Hopefully, it works out.
What build twrp do you have?
You can reformat your twrp this fix your USB problem.
Fastboot on this phone volume down power down same time.

If have experience building computers, or have ever replaced a broken lcd to screen you may consider replacing the board yourself.
Hers a video that shows how its done: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0oC4nPMXzM
Here is the teardown for our phone: http://www.myfixguide.com/manual/leeco-le-pro-3-teardown/

Are you serious!
The point was to demonstrate how easy it is, with a high quality video. Next, anyone who's ever taken these phones apart knows the steps are similar, and opening the phone with a heat gun while not damaging anything, obviously crucial.
If you read the entire post you would had noticed the link for the LeEco? See we know what's inside now.... Pretty much the same layout.
Not only is the interior is very similar. The G6 and the x727/x720 have similar specs.
I am actually doing this repair myself on one of my Le pro 3s as soon as the board arrives.
But, I don't have the time or the motivation to make a video when plenty exist.

Nice find! Although also not the same phone, it's still virtually the same steps.
Go for it dude. It's not that hard as long as you are careful. Make sure you get the right sealant for resealing it back together.
You can also use double sided tape :https://www.amazon.com/Eco-Fused-Adhesive-Sticker-Phone-Repair/dp/B00BXYWXV6

Are you serious don't give people bad ideas phone are different inside I have done hundreds of repairs OK.
Some like lg are easy but are a pain to do.

That like giving a person a truing tools and say go for 9 out of 10 will mess up their wheels.

You obviously ignored all of the previous posts in which provided all of those caveats. I.E. using a local service provider, or the 3rd party LeEco service site that I provided the link for, among all of the other warnings that I provided in my multiple posts!
Understand, I am actually trying to help someone, and not simply waiting by to make a comment on post that I disagree with. No, I have better things to do.
By the way what valuable service did you provide ? You have repaired so many phones, why not offer your services to fix it for the OP. While you cannot solicit the OP in a post you could PM him.
We both have decades of experience, so what!
I do not provide 3rd party service, on phones.
But, I am willing to do is provide reasonable advice. Buts make it clear, anyone who has experience with component level repair and troubleshooting will understand that this is far from being difficult.
Disassemble the phone, disconnect the wires, insert new USB card, reassemble everything Honestly, my 13 year old daughter could do this. But, she did grow up in a technical environment.
As far as I can ascertain, an important aspect of XDA is sharing information and helping others. Is this why you sign in?
At the end of the day, I don't know you or your history. If you have a long posting history of being helpful and providing expert guidance then please accept my apologies, if I offended you.
I enjoy helping others, it's what I do for a living.
By the way, my answers was also intended as advice for Aegile
