[Q] Phone not recognized by PC, still charging

Recently I found out that my PC is not recognizing my Nexus S, the usb mass storage notification is missing too. I tried to update the PC drivers in the Device Manager but not working.

Do you have "fast charge" enabled?
Sent from my Nexus S using xda premium

As far as I remember I avoided using fast charge. Right now I am unable to find the fast charge option, maybe the Gummy ROM is not offering it.

Fast Charge is a kernel rather than a ROM feature I think. If it's enabled it won't allow you to connect via usb.
Try rebooting with USB cable connected and see if your device is detected.
Another possibility would be a faulty USB cable.

[Q] Problems connecting via USB

I've been having problems connecting my phone to a PC via USB. I've tried it on two computers now and the phone will be recognized but then disconnected repeatedly. Does anybody know what could be causing this? Is it a hardware problem or some kind of faulty driver? I've done a system wipe/reinstall of a ROM and it doesn't help.

tried a different cable?

Tried cleaning out the port on the phone?

could be the port itself. if you're not careful you can tweak the port so the cable does not remain snug. my old BB charger works as long as i put the phone face down. the correct cables also have a better jack that fits deeper and tighter.

Tried a new cable and it seemed to be better. Good for nothing Amazon cable. Thanks for the advice!

Usb connection

Okay so I'm having a problem connecting my phone to my computer which I built a while ago. It keeps saying drivers were not installed so I installed the Samsung drivers and kies to no avail. Tried different several cables and also all the usb ports I have. But any other computer like my work or my brothers laptop it works in instant. Any suggestions
