Anyone?
Also would HTC Desire charger work with it? (the sticks looks same - microUSB, but looks like the phone is not charging)

Also if the phone is dead, is there any way i can check if the battery/screen or whatever else is faulty?
When i connect it under Windows with USB cable, it says that the device cannot be recognized and the drivers cannot be installed.
When connected with USB, i did hold the power button to turn it on but it doesnt start and the phone keeps vibrating continuusly.

Look on the back, or inside, even under battery, for more information.

I already know it's Samsung Galaxy Mini II, homever i have issues turning it on.

All microusb chargers are the same except for amperage. Try all you have. This phone is probably terminally damaged, but try a new battery if possible.

It's really strange (the phone was little wet) homever, sometimes it's starting just fine and sometimes wont turn on at all.
I have removed battery and put it to the bowl with a rice for a night and will see if that helps.

My "dampness" recovery is to disassemble and put phone/tab/laptop in in very low oven ie 125-135 degrees F for several hours. You may have ti turn oven on & off manually to get that low temperature. Your mileage may vary.

OK so basically the phone is in following state:
It's charging fine, homever the biggest problem atm is i cannot get the usb mass storage to work.
I'm connecting it to the PC and the phone is detecting it as AC charger not USB - PC is not even trying to install any drivers.
PC is not detecting the phone at all (phone is detecting that its being connected, the button backlights are lighting up)
I got no dropdown in the phone to select charging, mass storage etc. (when i do it in settings/communication/usb settings it keeps saying to connect the usb cable, but the phone is charging so its connected just fine)
When i was connecting it for the first time windows tried to install drivers but failed, also it was constantly disconnecting the phone from usb cable (now its fine it seems)
When i connect it using "Kies Air" it's working homever i still dont see the SD Card in "My Computer" for example.
What a mess, anyway any idea how to get the USB working again?

Try different cable, and/or different PC.

I ordered new usb cable, homever i doubt it's the problem as the phone is recognizing connection and also it's charging fine.

Touch pro usb doesn't work? (not the syncing)

Well for a while I thought my usb just died on my phone. I thought it got wrecked by physical damage like a power surge coming through mah pc when booting up and such...
But I just thought, well what the heck, and I flashed an old htc stock rom.
Now when I connected my phone to the pc, my touch pro gave me the 3 option screen.
activesync,sd,internet
But the pc did not detect any new hardware .
So I sadly flashed back to my energy rom. But al of the sudden when I wanted to connect my touchpro to the pc for charging, it asked me what to do (3 option scnreen), and the also detected my touch pro (well now my touchpro, it just saw something got connected).
So my pc tried ti install the drivers, it said it installed pockec sync usb something. But device center didn't notice any phone.
So I thought, too bad, but whne I disconnected the phone I heard a sound when disconnecting usb hardware.
Now the pc doesn't detect my touch pro when plugging in.
But this is proof it isn't physical damage (atleast I think).
Cause of the usb failure.
I was flashing a couple of months ago, when it suddenly started to stop at the middle. (each time it was another point so no damaged rom).
so I was able to flash it form my pc that time, but the times after that I had to flash from sd. Also when I tried to connect my phone, the pc lost connection with the phone after 40 secs.
Does someone know what to do? Please help me, usb is kinda important .
Btw, I have got this problem at every pc, also with every cable.
And now windows keeps saying an unkown device connected.
And shortly after windows detected my phone it undetects its.
(i hear two beeps in a row)
Yes I have disabled fast usb to pc
I forgat to mention that my pc doesnt reconize the device,
and with this rom my touchpro doesn't know it is connected
(It doesnt want to sync or anything), doesnt see it got plugged in.
Is there n1 here wich knows the solution??!
This problem is caused by damaged mini usb port on your device.
Actually this this new mini usb with 11 pin used in Touch Pro in & many other HTC device has a very delicate & thin plastic piece in middle. Quite visible from outside, this acts both as separator for the 2 layered pins of mini usb & base for connectors when u insert a usb to connect a pc or the audio cord.
This small plastic separator gets cracked if you do not handle usb connections properly.
Now here is the solution -
1.Remove battery
2.Look into mini usb port on device, see if there is a crack in between
3.If yes take a fine needle just press the cracked part so that the whole piece gets leveled.
4. Then you can put a small drop of quick drying fixer at the outer tip of this plastic part,take care it doesn't go inside otherwise it will create a layer on connecting plates.
Hope it helps you.

help! my sensation cant be detected on my computer

Yes I know some will say install drivers or slide down the notifications.
But the problem is when I plug in, there isn't any notification for you to switch to disk drive mode.
Everything was working fine last week. There was no problems detecting my phone on my home and any PC at work. I have drivers install in my computer and can do adb commands
But now, when I plug in, it only shows the charging light.
I have done the following
On and off the USB debug option
Reboot phone
Try a 4 micro USB cable
Tried different USB slots on the computers
Use usbdeview and delete all HTC drivers and resinstall also not working
Remove my micro SD card and reinsert.
All doesn't work.
Strangely, one thing does. When I plug in the PC and I need to reboot, with my phone still plug in my PC. The notification will appear and I can do all things normally. But once I unplug and plug in again, same problem. Only can be solved with next reboot with phone plug in before hand. If windows is already loaded, it cannot be detected.
I though it was the rom. But I went to boot loader and same thing. It shows fastboot AC. If I do the reboot windows method, it will show fastboot USB .. will show fastboot AC if I replug in
I am starting to think my USB port on my phone is faulty.. any ideas?
Try plugging it and wait for a long time. Since I formated my computer it takes like 10-15min for my phone to show up after I plugged it. No idea what's causing it though.
Done that , charged it for 1hr plus, same
Best thing is try different cable, there is some issue with htc cable your pc sometime dont recognize phone, Other thing you can do it is keep ur phone connected to pc then boot your phone to Hboot or bootloader or fast boot, your pc will recognize your phone with generic driver.

hmm tried 4 cables.. same results..
Using the same cable, tried my mum's desireHD.. no problems detecting the USB each time..
Bootloader mode, it shows Fastboot AC
instead of Fastboot USB.. unless reboot my windows..
Oh i tired another micro SD card, same results.. :/
why mess with cables... AirDroid.
connect your phone to the pc via wifi.
direct link to the market: goo.gl/9YG73
but if you must connect via cable for something... have you checked the most obvious place? (sounds like you probably have but just in case...)
settings > connect to pc > default connection type

Flashed ROM......
Mine is doing the same thing. It didn't start until I flashed the new ROM. When in Windows, I just un-plug it, and re-plug it. Then it shows up immediately. But it always seems to show in flashboot.

I got the same problem... any idea...
please help me..
Is there where USB cannot be recognized issue? If this is, I have a simple solution which took me forever to figure out.
I know this method sounds ridiculous, but give it a try. Unplug your charger connected to your computer/laptop and plug it in to a different outlet. Replug the USB with your phone connected, give it a sec, and it should work.
what operating system is your PC running? I was gonna say perhaps it might be a faulty USB port...
i have the same problem
What I do is go to devices and printers and then android phone then properties then hardware and disable the reenable the drivers. As soon as you reenable the drivers it should show up in disk mode. Hope this helps. This is the only phone I've had this problem with.

Help me recovering Samsung Galaxy Mini II

Hello.
Short story: my phone was a little wet and i have some issues with it, mostly i want to get a mass storage to get working. (cant root)
Basically at first the phone didn't even want to charge, when i connected it to the PC windows was giving me an error that the device cannot be recognized, and couldn't install the drivers. (i had Kies installed)
I dried it completely, now the phone turns on without any problem, when i connect it to the pc the phone is recognizing connection (i hear sound + the button backlights are firing up for a sec)
Homever, windows is not detecting any USB device at all, and in about phone/info it says the phone is connected to the AC instead of USB.
When i connect it with USB there is no dropdown in notification to choose from charging, storage etc.
There is also manual usb storage mounting under settings/communication/usb settings , when i'm trying to mount here it just says to connect the phone with usb cable (not detecting connection, homever the backlight + sound is here after connecting, and it's charging)
I tried connecting it with usb debugging on/off even tried to fiddle with in service menu (*#7284#) but nothing.
And since i cannot get the usb storage working basically i cannot flash anything or root it.
Also the USB cable is not a Samsung but an HTC one, could this be a problem? (people in different thread said those cables are the same so it shouldnt be a problem, same amperage, same stick etc.)
Even tried to install MountUSB Widget from market, but it doesn't work when im trying to start the app it's force closing, when i make widget on desktop and press it the phone just vibrate for 1 sec and nothing happens.
When i connect phone with Kies AIR and it works, i mean it shows the storage information, also recognize the phone model correctly, how much free space i have on internal and on SD card but i cannot click "show in explorer" it's greyed out.
Any experts out there could help me? :crying:
Just a blind guess, try a USB cable which supports your device. If it doesn't help, I'm afraid it's a hardware problem and you will have to consult some hardware expert.

S2 nable to shut down while connected to power - Unable to Copy From USB Mass Storage

***SOLVED****I have a Samsung Galaxy Skyrocket 2 SGH-I727, rooted on gb 2.3.5. It has been working flawlesly for months. All of a sudden, when I connected the device to power I was UNABLE to shut it down. I would slelect shut down and it would REBOOT itself instead of staying shut down and showing the BATTTERY ICON charging. Also suddenly I could not access the device as a mass storage from windows. Windows would say device not recognized. After researching for hours I came across one idea the did the trick. The problem was simple. The USB connector "tongue" inside the USB adapter in the phone apparently got bent somehow. This precented the USB cable connecting in from making contact with all the wires inside and THAT caused the 2 problems mentioned in the title. I took a very thin micro flat head screwdriver, GENTLY CAREFULLY put a little pressure on the USB tongue inside the phone's USB adapter and voila!...I could shut down the phone while connected to power, Windows again regognized the device. Who wold have thunk it?
For any of you who come across this, and I saw MANY MANY, not only for GS2 but for MANY andriod devices, and many failed "solutions", here is the answer!...
Have fun.
I think I have a similar problem.
Until two weeks phone was working perfectly fine. Then realized that the battery was getting drained in about 4-6 hours even when idle with no apps running, sometimes battery charge dropped like 15% in a moment, it didn’t indicate charging when connected to power though battery got charged and sometimes it indicated as charging when not connected to power. Phone could not be detected when connected to PC. Also, if I connected to PC after shutting it down, it automatically rebooted. This was weird.
Then when battery was fully dead and I connected to power, it tried to boot but immediately shutdown saying ‘low battery’ and again tried to boot… it was stuck in this loop.
I thought it might be android issue so flashed it with UCKK6 Kernel + Rooted System Package ((Thanks to creepyncrawly’s Download Repository)
But now, it still is not detected by the PC. It boots automatically when connected to PC after shutting down, but not when connected to wall power.
Cleaned the micro USB connecter, tried different cables and laptops.
Earlier Android: Version 2.3.6; Baseboard Version I777UCKK6; Kernel Version 2.6.35.7
After Flashing: Version 2.3.6; Baseboard Version I777UCKK6; Kernel Version 2.6.35.7
Pls I I tried to flash cm rom 12.1 on sgh 1727 skyrocket and it stuck on patching system image unconditionally n it stays there forever please what can I do?

Hardbricked phone, ticking noise

Hello! Yestreday my Xiaomi mi4 LTE was connected to charger, when came back i found it dead. Nothing helped - leaving at charger etc. no signs of life. Then i removed the back cover, and removed battery as once it fixed it. But this time didnt help. The thing is, when connected to pc it shows unknown device, so i cant use miflash, fastboot or anything else. But.. with the usb board connector disconnected from MOTHERBOARD when the USB MODULE alone is connected to pc, it also shows up as unknown device. If the USB charging module is attached to board, then right in front of folume buttons there is ticking noise, and the red led at the bottom oh phone comes up
What i`ve tried - leaving it connected to charger for night, removing battery and then reconnecting it.
The questions i have are:
1)https://ru.aliexpress.com/item/Micr...lgo_pvid=f2881e4b-8cb6-4aba-a30b-5f07ed48a1c9 when this is connected to pc ALONE without motherboard.. is it supposed to show up somehow? Can anyone try to remove that connector from board, and then connected it to pc? Becouse without anything connected to that module, it still shows up as unknown device..
2)When connected to usb... is that part of motherboard that is right in front of volume buttons - supposed to tick? It makes noise similiar to the noise that the wrist watches make..constant ticking/electric noise. And its not speaker, becouse speaker is also disconnected.
Is it worth trying to replace the usb connector, or its likely that the board also is dead?
