Thanks in advance!

Maybe you have to use two mini to normal USB converters and a regular usb cable, think this is a lot cheaper as well.

Whats so special about the HTC data cable?

Hi this may have been answered before but is there anything special about the htc data cable? If I use a mini usb cable it seems to work exactly the same for data transfer to pc and charging the phone (in car or home)

nothing
but known companys like htc always charge more for cables then cheap oem cables cost

Thanks, thats what I thought just wanted to make sure there wasn't a problem with me using a mini usb.

when i plug it in it just goes strait to charging on pc and beeps thats it .. tried different usb cords and computers the same thing

The USB port could be damaged or dirty. What happens if you plug the cable into the phone, apply gentle pressure on it towards the back of the phone (Or the front) and then plug it into the computer? Does it start to work so long as the cable is held? If so I would guess the USB port may have developed some bad solder joints.

yeah tried everything

Replace Micro USB Port

Hey guys,
I dont know if Im right here, but do you have an idea about replacing the micro usb port on a tablet? I have an old archoos 80 g9, but its not usable anymore because the pins inside the micro usb port are bent. I tried to fix it but no luck yet. I thought maybe replace the complete port on the tablet.
Did anyone do something like that before?
Many thanks for your help.

One of my computers wont recognize Galaxy S8+

Does any one know a reason why a computer won't recognize a Galaxy S8+ when plugged in USB. To me its clear that drivers are messed up on the ZBook, but I don't know how to fix it.
I have two PCs, my wifes laptop and this HP ZBook x2 G4. All three of the other devices recognize the S8+, but the ZBook wont. I've gone into S8+ settings, turned on developer mode and turned on USB Debugging with no success. I've tried a USB C to USB C cable, as well as the USB 3.0 to USB C able that comes with the phone. Still nothing.

USB 3.0 has played much havok with S8 most recommend a 2.0 hub and seems to solve issues some of the time

First off, thank you for your feedback and your time.
Idk if thats the issue in this case. My other two PCs have no problem reading it via USB 3.0
But lets say the USB 3.0 havok IS the issue here. Does the USB 3.0 havok apply to USB-C to USB-C? My ZBook (the one having issues) has two USB-C ports. But even when my S8+ is connected to my ZBook via C to C I still have the problem. I figure if the "havok" is strictly related to USB 3.0 and it still doesn't work with C then maybe my problem is something different, unrelated to the USB 3.0 havok.
I REALLY want to connect my S8+ to my ZBook via USB-C to USB-C, so that I can use Sidesyc smoothly.

My guess would be the usb 3 driver on your laptop, perhaps try to find an updated usb3 driver.
The fact that your other two laptops see your S8 suggests that problem is with the laptop rather than S8+ or usb cable

Will look into it! Thank you!

Hi, Google a program called USBDeview.
