Unlocking Usb port on LG phone - General Topics

I have been searching high and low for about a week now on how to unlock the Rumor 2's USB port. I'm trying to hook it up to cdma workshop to view some info but It won't recognize my phone no matter what drivers I install. Has anyone unlocked the USB. Also I was wondering if you have to have an evDo phone in order to flash over another evDo phone???? Much thanks.

[Q] Srint TP2 usb repair

I have a sprint touch pro 2 and the USB port used for connecting and charging the device is broken. every time i connect the a cord to my phone the charging led pops up but does not actually connect the device to the pc nor charge it. The port was weak when i got it and had to be angled in order for it to charge. I just wanted to know if a usb repair is easy and if there is a difference in the port in terms of using anyone for any device in it. If not can some one tell me if i have to use a 11pin or different. If you do not recommend me doing it can you direct me to a legitimate service that fixes devices like these.
Thank you for all your help in advance.

[Q] Infuse USB problem

It seems as though the USB portion of my phone connection no longer works. I can charge the phone and nothing else. No communication at all between PC and phone. So, I have the following questions, and appreciate all suggestions.
1. Is it easy to replace the USB port on the phone?
2. Is download mode attainable w/o use of the port?
I've had the phone for 18 months, and is not worth the $200 insurance deductible. May upgrade in a couple months, but wanted to know if this is an easy fix. Using Dropbox currently for file/ data transfer, so it's not a huge deal.
Thanks for all suggestions!
Infuse 4g USB problem
I too have an Infuse with a USB connection problem. The only thing it does is charge. The device is otherwise not recognized on a Windows XP or a Ubuntu 12.04 machine.
Thanks for any assistance.
Try app-Software data cable, and never need to worry about a cable again.

Data transfer is not a problem, when I have Dropbox. I was curious, and I'm sure there isn't, was if there was a way to get into Download mode w/o having a PC connection or being able to use a jig.

can't connect to pc via usb

I can't seem to connect to my phone to pc via usb. Pc doesn't recognize the phone at all but when I have the phone off and then connect the phone to pc the phone boots back up. So it seems that the phone recognizes the pc. I've tried different ports, cables. I am able to with my other phones. I do have MDM installed. I bought this phone used so don't know if it every worked before. I believe the phone has at least another month of manufacturers warranty on it. The phone was assembled on 2/22/14. I'm wondering if VZW would help me out with this even if I wasn't the original purchaser? I'm currently on their prepaid plan.
Any help or suggestions would be much appreciated! TIA

yes i have
while not as practical as plugging in through USB, you can try something like AirDroid and access your phone storage through wifi as an FTP site.

Has anyone dealt with Moto with warranty issue's? I justed added my phone onto Moto and my phone is covered until June.
They have a option called "Secured advance exchange".
They will put a $200 hold on my CC then send me out a phone. Then I send them back my old phone.
Has anyone dealt with their warranty exchange before???
I have some what the same issue.
PC recognize my phone as unknown device with USB\VID_0000&PID_0000, which is bull****. When I use the exact same cable and port with my spouse's mini it works just fine.
You can check how your PC recognize the device with USBDeview.
So I came to the conclusion that my mini-USB port is just burned down. I have no another explanation. I've tried another computers and various cables, it all the same. That is disappointing, because I have unlocked bootloader and wanted to use my MAXX for a while, but I'll have to switch after the contract expiration date.

I found out my phone still has warranty so Moto sending another phone. Don't know what phone they're going to send me though. I doubt they still have any Ultra's left. Maybe upgrade to a Maxx.

Honor 8 won't connect to pc nor quick charge

So, my phone won't quick charge, nor will it connect to pc. Keep getting the divice not recognized and has malfunctioned. Stock everything, cause I can't unlock the bootloader to flash it. 7.0 android. Things I've tried, brand new cables, the charging block is the one that came with the phone. 3 different pcs, windows 7 to 10. USB Debugging, the secret enter code in dialer to the menu to enable hisense or whatever USB setting, enabling it USB to hisense in advanced (its not hisense its something, can't remember its the oem exe) various drivers and Android drivers.. I've tried it all almost. It's not beyond me to take the phone down and replace the port but I'd rather not if it's a common correctable issue. I reset this phone twice to see if a reset would fix it.. Nothing. Anyone else with the issue or something like it? Just wanna root this thing.. This is a "new to me" phone so probably why they sold it if it's the actual port jacked up, it's not a big big deal as my g3 was overheating and dying and I got this for $80.. Figure I came out on top cause the USB c boards are cheap enough. But I hate the glued together stuff cause you never get it exact when throwing it together or at least I don't. Big hands. So... Here is to hoping it's software. Phone works 100% other than that I like it.
Yeah, I know this. Quick charge won't work on the block. I'm not concerned with quick charge on my pc.. I'm concerned with connecting to my pc period. I can't connect at all. The bootloader is locked because I can't connect to pc to unlock it. So to recap. Quick charge will not work on the block at all so I lack being able to quick charge, and I cannot connect to a pc via USB. I have tried all the fixes I can think of in my original post with no success unless I missed something?
I'm thinking I'm gunna have to tear this phone apart and replace the dang port... Lol. Too easy.

Malfunctioning USB port. Trying to root but can not connect to cpu to flash

To start off my USB port seems to be malfunctioning. I can charge but will always get the " charging slow" error. It will even charge via usb port on a pc but it will not recognize it as an external Storage unit. Ive changed the usb settings via developer settings. However i do not get a usb notification on my phone giving me the option to switch the function.
Is there a way to connect to a PC to use flashing tools/ADB in order to unlock my loader as well as flash and send commands to my phone. I can use LG AirDrive but i do not believe commands can be sent through that. Would greatly appreciate help since im lead to believe rooting has just hit for the Stylo 4.
If it is any importance. I am on the stylo 4 bought through best buy not attached to any carrier Q710ULM is my model number
Did you try another USB cable? Ive had several that broken inside and the same happened. Changing USB cable solved it
Ive tried several. It is definetly my USB port. I think dollar store chargers did it in. And now since its always slowly charging i think it won't do any data transfer maybe in fear of loss of data due to bad connection?

Yours is a micro USB port right? Most likely it's a faulty USB port. See if you can get a store to replace it
Yes. Well a Type C but android charger none the less. I guess id have to send to LG to honor the warranty. I didnt purchase ot from a carrier and also did not get aj insurance plan when i connected it to t mobile.
In other words you are saying im SOL for getting on ADB? Atleast until a one click root has a method for this device.
Just to test. Did you test in another computer to see if it is detects it?
My computer corrupted the adb connection due to faulty drivers. Reinstalling windows fixed it because in another computer that i have it was detected normally. It's just to test the whole scenario here. If it doesn't work RMA it to LG
Yes I tested it on a computer as well as multiple outlets. I finally just took the back off and took out the port. It had a lot of corrosion around it. Almost all teal colored. I blame those dollar store chargers. I have no other explanation behind why it happened. Either way there is luckily someone wihtin range selling a bunch of parts on offerup so I was able to pick uo a new port for 7 dollars off of him. When I removed the back I was pretty surprised to see how the "non-removable" batteries are packages in there. Just a bunch of layers wrapped up in thin plastic with some tape around it. haha
