[Q] Optimus s chargining problem... - Optimus One, P500, V Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

my optimus s (rooted and flashed) doesn't charge in certain positions.like i have to have it upright against a wall for it to work. i am considering taking it to sprint but i am concerned that something about my ROM will be found. Will spint be concerned that i have a custom rom?
but more importantly what is the fix to my phone issue?

There are two possibilities:
ur phones usb socket has broken
usb cable has been internally damaged
There are two solutions:
if socket in phone is damaged get it repaired
if you changed cable and then also problem socket is danaged

[Q] USB brick ?

I had my USB working properly till one day when all of a suddenly socket was broken. Don't know how it happend but USB socket was phisically damaged (plate with pins broken and pins hanging in the air without support). After puting the plug in it worked but only charging (I was suprised, that it worked at all). So I took it to nearest cell phone workshop and asked to replace micro USB socket in the phone. When they did it they informed me that it's charging but there is something wrong with data connection because phone is not recognised by any PC. Now it comes to my question. Phone, when connected to PC (several cables and PC's ) is displayed as "NOT RECOGNISED DEVICE" No matter if I connect it with SD card, without card, without battery, in working state or in fastboot. May it be USB brick which might be solved similar to HTC Desire solution ?
Sorry for typhos and grammar, English is not my native language.
I'd think that the physical damage has cut some contacts on the board.
You will have to live without USB connection

Even after replacing my usb port on the device it doesn't fastcharge at all

Hey guys,
First of all:
1. I've rooted my phone since the beginning of having my phone.
2. I always pull the cord fairly hard out of my charging port.
So I rooted my mobile to use specific apps. Never have I overclocked my device.
After a bit more than a year my phone stopped seeing my pc when attached. And after a few months my phone completely stopped fast charging
I started by cleaning out my usb port. After that I did a hard reset... still didn't work so I tought it might be my charging port. So I orderd a the part and replaced the port. The part includes a jack, buttons and usb port.
Just replaced it and STILL IT DOESN'T WANT TO QUICKCHARGE OR RECOGNISE MY COMPUTER!!!
Ive tried multiple chargers, cables, computers, hardreset, cleaning and replacing my Galaxy s6 daughter board!!!
What could lead to this problem???? Any help would be much appreciated.
Would you guys have any idea how to flash stock rom on the device without getting it recognized by the computer?
I still have the stock rom on it but I think it is a software issue... :crying:

Galaxy S7 failing to charge wired or respond to usb input on pc

Having a few issues with an s7, charge port has been replaced (twice as I sent one back thinking that was at fault), charges wirelessly ok but not wired, now I need the wired to connect to pc to restore the phone through Odin.
Any clues, starting to wonder if it's the main board at fault, any wireless methods for connecting and using Odin, phone has a tied account and the gmail acount it's tied to is not known hence needing wired connection to use Odin.
Tried many chargers and cables.
Thanks in advance
mmm i am not sure, but my s7 looks like having the same issue.
tryed to use different cables and restore factory settings. did not work.
so the only way is use external sd card
Currently facing the same issue, but i think i messed with my charging port quite a bit. Now, i can only charge my phone using wireless charging, and i can only transfer files using the external SD card. :/
Very Sad,,,,,, I still have not tried sending it in for repair as i fear that it wont be waterproof anymore. Dont want to risk it.

Do you have any idea about how to make root without cable? I have tried all the one click apps
mmm i wonder, may you tried to install supersu or anything like that trough the default recovery mode? and then install twrp with the app?
open the back cover look on the left under the board there is a connector that plugs in from the usb .
it plugs in from bottom up

Yep that plug just near the antenna and home button flex is firmly home.
Then the only thing I can think of , is hardware problem , you need to replace the USB pin.
( Did you try the old needle in the charging pin trick to remove any dirt inside )
Replaced the charge port flexes which include the usb header twice now.
You say you've tried many chargers and cables, but have you tried a new Genuine Samsung USB cable? I've seen many people on XDA having problems with cheap 3rd party cables when Genuine works fine

Px5 USB not working

hi, I sent the radio for a warranty because the touch screen did not work. They sent me a new radio, this time the USB is not working from the beginning, I tried a few pendrives, a wireless keyboard, charging the phone, nothing works. I checked with a multimeter and it shows 2.26V on the radio and the same at the end of the USB cable (so the cable itself is good, I also checked the cable and it's okay) anyone can knows where is the problem?
I d send it back, the only accounts I ve read about usb not working have when the SoM has been recovered a la @marchnz's method and someone has been heavy handed inserting pins into the SoM.
I've had several issues with USB on these as well. If someone tries to charge their device off the port, it tends to blow out components instead of signaling a brownout and shutting off the port.
I've used the pins metod to upgrade my SOM to Orero and my USB stop working. I've fixed my SOM with a thiny piece of alluminium inserted in the pins i've used for the upgrade.

Flash TWRP without usb port?

hello good day.
the usb port on my xz premium gave out long ago.
while trying to repair it. i noticed that the FPC connector connecting the the charge port to the pcb was broken off.
TLDR i made my own external charging circuit for the phone and it's working nicely.
but i'm wondering can i somehow flash/root the phone without a usb port?
i'd like to bring a few modifications to the system for better use but so far i haven't found much info.
anyone know any methods of getting it rooted ect?
it has a unlock BL button in settings. so it isnt a locked phone
