Hi everyone, I am new to flashing rom.
I have flashed [ROM][KANG][2012.02.14] CyanogenMod 7.2.0 Milestone XT720 and I found that when i connect my phone to my computer with a usb cable, nothing happened. I mean no charging, no access to the sd card.

Unplug usb wire and then plug it a second time, it should work.

oh...I just tried it for several times, but still......

Try another cable. If that doesn't work then the problem is the USB port on your PC

It works now
Thanks a lot!!!

Have to plug in twice...
I had the same problem but i have to plug in my usb twice...is there a fix to this ?

I have the same problem sometimes also. I just disconnect and connect it again and it works. It does that on both my computer and the charger.

Fixed in last version.

FJFALCON: Thank you for that and also the incredible work you're doing.
Because of people like you, my once awful phone suddenly became amazing. I love showing off the new features on it to my friends.
Keep up the good work and many thanks.

Well, that kind'a your private problem =)

Maybe you are right!
But its fine with 24th April image and stock 2.1 UK rom!
- In 26th image, WiFi MAC ID keeps changing continuously
So was wondering if its really a h/w issue or the image has something wrong
thanks for supporting.

I will rebuild wlan driver so wait.

Great!
Thanks, fjfalcon.
06.05.2012 build fixes all issues, including storage access and WiFi MAC.

Great Work
Hello:
Thanks all the developers for your wonderful work. Installed the latest cm7 20120506 on XT720 and it feels completely different and much better phone now.
Everything seems to be working fine except I am not able to get wifi tethering working on this phone. I do not know if it is my phone only or is general problem.
I did some extensive reading for tethering and it was mentioned that it should run in infrastructure mode. or putting "dun" in apn etc. I even tried wifi tether app also. On this phone, I did not see two options "MSS clamping" and "Routing Fix" which seems to be critical.
As a last resort I tried bluetooth tethering and this seems to be working. I did the following
1: Install PdaNet 3.5 and FoxFi on XT720 for bluetooth tethering.
2. iPad: Pairing and connecting with XT720 immediately started working.
3. Galaxy s2: Installed Pdanet Tablet and connected to XT70:
I would appreciate your comments on getting wifi tethering to work with CM7 7.0 version
Once agains thanks to the developers.

Reboot on incoming call...
Has anyone else observed this ! Almost every alternate incoming call, it reboots.
Using 06-05-2012 image. Any help ?

Modakjay great idea for the wifi share, thanks.

USB Storage can't be turned on

So I got an incident with my phone, if you wanna now about it, its at my sig, but the thing is that I dunno why or how, sometimes my computer does recognizes my phone and display the Turn on USB storage option at the notification bar, but each time I try to turn it on it just wont work. Attached is a logcat whenI try to enable it, maybe someone could tell me why it wont work.

What rom are you running for those off that are on the xda application?

Normally I got two nandroids a GB based one and an ICS based one, right now Im using both Eagle's Blood 2.3.7 v2.8 and ICS 4.0.3 Build 1. But I had this problem since... always. I'm a flashaholic so i have tested actually every rom from stock 2.2.2 to beta 4.0.3... I even have a nandroid of my original ROM (the one that came with it when y bought it and rooted it) and not even there works. The only clue i have right now is that only if I disable USB debugging it will randomly connect.

This may sound dumb but have you tried a different usb cable? I had the same problem and tried my girls and my phone was able to connect each and every time. another thing I noticed with my phone is that it sometimes won't connect using windows 7...xp no problem but 7 it plays hard to get.

No man, doesn't sounds dumb, actually if you read the "issue" background on my sig, you'll notice that I have made all those steps... its not a big deal, there are SDCard Readers and the bluetooth but... itw not the same.

Ok but my bad I can't see your sig since I use the app most of the time. Yea its not the same

Holy Mother of God! I did it! In one of those "random" times my comptuter recognized my phone I just pulled out the batt unplug/plug again the cable, keeping both vol buttons pressed and it reconginzed the APX decive! Then all I had to do was NVFlash again, restore the stock 2.2.2 Nandroid i had somewhere and play a bit with the USB mount/debbug options, flashed both storages (using gparted for the microSD) and it works! Now have to restore everything to my SD and reflash latest cm7...

Nice!

Talked too early, if. I restore my nandroid the issue continues... -_____- Gonna try doing everything again...

Did you ever figure this out? Sounds like your having the same problem that i am.
I've tried at least 6 different cables, home PC, work PC, laptop and a co-worker's PC that didn't have anything vmware installed (had a hunch that vmware usb drivers were the cause). Oh, all the computers were win7x64.
I've only rooted my phone and upgraded to 2.3.3 so nothing crazy going on there and it's worked for months since i did both of those.
I have a feeling that this may have been a recent windows update, but no clue when or which one because i haven't really cared that it didn't work. If i had to guess i'd say mine stopped working about 3 months ago... again, hard to remember.

Make sure usb debugging is turned off.
Plug in the phone, enable usb storage.
Right click on the phone drives in the explorer and click on eject.
Turn off usb storage.
Unplug and plug in again.
Enable usb storage.
Drives should work now.
This did it for me. Since then if I remember to eject before unplug I haven't seen any issues.

Thanks for the reply, I'll give that a shot.
Curious though, when yours was having problems, did windows detect anything? For instance, when I plugged mine into my co-workers pc there are zero pop ups about new hardware detected.

I had the same problem. Dirt in the mini-USB port can cause that problem.
Take a can of compressed air and blow it into the mini-USB port (blowing with your mouth isn't enough). Also, take a close look at the port with a magnifying glass and look for any dirt or discoloration in there.
Do the same with your cable.

Not working after install RemICS 1.3.2

Hi, this problem occur to me after I've installed RemICS 1.3.2 ROM (CM9 based), I did follow the installation steps from beginning, when the problem occur, I did re-flash the same ROM several times, but this problem still unsolved.
I did try all recommendations (blow out dirt, disable usb debugging etc) but still not success.
This ROM should able to detect USB when phone connected with PC, but somehow I don't know why. Any experts recommendation?

Ok, I just found the problem. I can hear now the tone of PC detected USB when plugged-in, and I update the driver. then Voila!!
Thanks All..

Hey, just thought I'd register an account because I stumbled upon this thread because I had the same issue verbatim and I managed to get it working.
I ended up using the USB 3.0 ports on my desktop and suddenly it picks up my g2x without fail everytime. With that said, I'm lead to believe that perhaps its an issue of power. Maybe the USB 2.0 ports you're using simply aren't providing enough power. Not sure what its worth or if my issue was something unrelated but maybe that bit of information is something to work with. =)

Found another solution that fixed the problem for me.
If you are using Windows XP, log on as an Administrator and open Device Manager
Select View > Show Hidden Devices
Scroll down to Storage Volumes, and expand
Right-click on each entry and select Update Driver.
This fixed the problem for me!

[Q] USB Connection Won't Work

I can't seem to anyone else who has this problem. My TF700 is working great. However, today I decided to bite the bullet and install CleanRom. After unlocking, I realized that my computer can no longer see the tablet via USB. It is not an unrecognized device, just nothing happens when I plug it in.
I have tried two different cables on 3 computers, so I believe the problem is with the tablet itself. It charges just fine and when I plug the cable into the computer or unplug, the screen comes on (just like when you plug in the charger), so something is getting recognized.
I don't see any physical damage to the port, it looks fine.
Anyone else ever seen this?
Thanks,
Chris

So it was working previously?

It was, not sure how long ago though. I know it was when I first got it. I'm guessing it is a hardware problem, but not sure what to do about it. I honesly don't care all that much about it, but I would love to get TWRP on it so I can flash roms. I haven't seen a way to get TWRP on it without the USB or GooManager, but I can't run GooManager because I don't have root yet.
Still trying to search to see if there is a way to get root without USB, but I haven't found anything....

Chris,
See if downloading and installing PC Suite from Asus helps.
That might get the drivers working again.
Are your PCs win7?

Just a thought. I am not running clean rom but when u connect to ur pc try going to settings, storage, and and hit the 3 little dots on the top right. It should show some usb connection tab.

Thanks, I'll try the software install, but since the computer doesn't even tell me I have an urecognized device (nothing in device manager), I'm not sure that it is. I also already rolled back to stock ICS and also tried the storage settings to no avail.
I unfortunately think I have a hardware problem. I guess I'm stuck at trying to get it repaired, or just live without the USB connection....which I guess ultimately means no customizations. I can still flash back to the stock Jelly Bean using the factory bootloader and rom from the Asus site, so I may have to live with that.

Could be the cable. Sadly, replacing it is ridiculously hard.

I wish it were. I have a second charger/cable and already tried both cables on different PCs. Uggh.

Connect the tablet to a PC running Linux and run lsusb to see if the tablet is recognized (the vendor ID is 0B05) - just to sidestep any possible Windows driver issues.

usb otg problem on jellybean

there is a major bug on jellybean with this tablet where the otg will stop working and you have to reboot to fix the problem, can a app like USB OTG Helper get around this problem?
and please don't reply and say your otg works fine, you are not helping me by saying that, i want a solution & help with this problem, not a "works fine for me, not sure what you are talking about herpy derp" its really annoying and doesn't help my cause, just don't reply if you are going to say that.
so anyways, anyone installed this app on jellybean and have no lockups with the otg? please post on this topic, or if you know any other solutions or apps that can help that would be nice, just that i want to update to jellybean to get the feature to turn of notifications for apps, i get spammed to death by it and its really annoying. if nothing comes from this topic then i will just have to stay on ics till 4.3 or 4.2 comes (if that ever happens that is)

What is otg

Could you tell us what the model number of the tablet is, root status, and software version?

I am having the same problem. However, the issue is not universal, i.e.: not all notes suffer from this problem. Sofar, it is not even clear to me whether the problem is hardware or software related. E.g.: my Note has Android 4.1.2 installed and USB only works once after a reboot (that is with the official Samsung adapters). I did try my adapters with a different Note, where they worked perfectly, but that tablet was running 4.1.1.
I have not tried OTG Helper, as I do not want to root my tablet (too risky with possible curious little fingers around), but I have just received a return ticket from Amazon Germany for a repair and/or replacement. If the replacement works, while running 4.1.2, I am much more inclined to call this a hardware failure, in which case no helper app can save you. I shall keep the forum informed...

if it was a hardware problem then my otg adaptor wouldn't work on ics would it? it's a software problem on jellybean, hence the reason i created this topic.

i've found solution to the problem and will leave this for anyone who needs it, basically sixaxis app and a dual shock 3 controller and root, you only need to connect the usb otg once and it registers the mac code from the controller with your tablet, after that you can play wirelessly without cables so the otg problem is completely bypassed, i'm happy because i can finally leave ice cream sandwich behind and enjoy jellybean on my tablet finally, i just wish someone told me this ages ago and i wouldn't have been stuck on ice cream sandwich for so long, yay! time to celebrate lol

started a bug report with android. Please help get this fixed
I started a bug report for this with android. Please go and star it for importance so that it gets fixed. If you got it working please go and say what you have/did to have usb otg working with 4.1.2.

[Q] Keyboard dock problems

Hey guys
I pulled my TF300 out of the box, let it run through updating everything it wanted to update then after rebooting the keyboard dock refuses to work. The power is still there, showing up on the battery monitor and charging the tablet, and it's showing up as being connected, plus the USB port is fine, but there's no response from pressing any keyboard buttons or poking the mouse pad. Before the tablet updated to 4.2 (from whatever it came in the box with) it worked fine since I put in my gmail stuff with it, but now nothing.
I've tried reboots and reconnects and everything basic I can think of. Nothing wants to do anything.
There's so many threads about these problems, but no-one seems to actually have an answer for it, other than just poke and hope something works.
Anyone have an idea what I should do?

Hypothisising

This is just a hypothesis, but it's worth the shot.
When you updated the tablet, was the dock connected?
If not, the dock firmware might out dated for your tablets firmware version. I presume that's why on the update notice it advises you to connect your dock; to keep the dock compatible to prevent other users may end up in a situation like yours. Have you tried flashing the latest official rom via fastboot with the Tablet connected? You never know, it might be the solution.
Hope this helped.:laugh:
Live long and prosper.

So did you have any success? The problem might of been caused by the upgrade of the 4.1 bootloader to the 4.2 one whilst not having your dock attached.
