[Q] USB doesn't work all of a sudden! can't connect to pc HELP - Transformer TF300T Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

last nite I did a upgrade, I updated the firmware to the latest version, then I found out I have lost root, even though I had rootkeeper.
After doing some research, I have decided to use adb to push the su file and it worked
however for some reason I can no longer connect my tf300 to my pc (windows 7). I have tried rebooting my device, I have also tried rebooting my pc, nothing worked!
I then went to the asus download site and installed the pc suite, and still couldn't connect my device to my pc using usb cable!
please help

Uninstall the drivers from your comp then plug the tablet back in to let it install..see if that does it

already tried that out, didn't work..

Go into your settings and click usb debugging off that might help i had the same problem today

Why do you want to use adb and connect to your PC.
Use Terminal Emulator apk in Google play :good:
It's an app which is good and really functional in case of problem
and try this: use Asus Unlock tool again, reboot and try to connect to your PC.

No USB access but need to root

I have a tf700 with a strange problem. When I plug it into the computer, it reports there is an error in the USB descriptor and doesn't install the drivers. I know the drivers are installed OK because I have a 2nd tf700 that installs fine. I also tried linux with no luck - lsusb reports nothing when I plug it in, but it does find the other tablet fine.
The error occurs in MTP, PTP, debugging option on or off, and fastboot. It charges normally through the port.
I disassembled the nonworking unit and swapped the port/cable assembly but the problem stayed with the tablet. I also reflashed stock from SD using the stock recovery with no effect.
My goal is to get root access and install TWRP. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there a way to connect to adb wirelessly without root access or is there an older version of stock I can flash and self-root without a PC?
So it looks like I'm out of luck then?

If you root with motochopper you can use Terminal Emulator app on the tablet to install TWRP. You can also try installing the Universal Naked Drivers for ADB and fastboot to connect with your computer.
Well I am aware of all these methods but problem is in My tablet's USB/Charging slot, may there is some pin damaged that is why USB in not detecting,,,,Even i have every thing in my PC like Universal naked Drivers,,,Android SDK,,Motochopper Etc, Not only This couple of Months ago I have "unbricked" my Asus TF300tg using Fastboot Commands and Flashed New Blob,,,,, Everything was working well now i have decided to Root it but TWRP was replaced by the Stock Recovery....That is why is asked whether there is any way to root it through any App or WIFI...

Root without PC/USB

Hi,
Have a TF101 tablet here stock rom, stock recovery...
However it seems the USB will not detect on a windows PC tried multiple cables multiple PC's tried from recovery nothing is detected in device manager at all. Tablet doesn't even detect that its connected to PC either.
Is there anyway to root this thing without USB??? I need to root it so I can install recovery and flash another rom.
Thanks,
Which Windows version are you running?
If you use Win 7 and prior you should be able to connect with the universal naked drivers manually installed from device manager
Win 8 and above need driver signing disabled or they wont install the driver and the PC wont see the TF
If you have already tried the above, you might need a new cable

Thanks. Well i tried windows 7 x64 and windows 8 x64, neither showed any device or unknown device in device manager... Tried multiple cables as wel, no dice...
Shouldn't MTP work regardless of drivers installed in windows 7/8 ?
Are you putting the TF into APX mode?
Connect TF to PC USB > Power Off TF > Hold Power & Volume Up until the PC recognises it (Only takes a couple seconds, nothing appears on the TF screen) then install drivers
You need APX mode for Easyflasher
For normal media transfer, it will still need to install at least some USB type driver, as do all USB devices to function, possibly not the APX drivers
Check in Developer Options > USB Debugging mode
Try it enabled and disabled with the TF plugged in
But really the MTP drivers are not what you need if you want to root. you need APX mode to work (As above)

Doesn't seem to do anything when I hold power vol+, the screen of the tablet (blank/off) and on the pc nothing is being detected.
I can get to the bootloader/recovery via holding power vol- though. Also tried USB debugging mode... nothing is detected whatsoever... ordering another cable on ebay will see if that works but I doubt it since it seems to be a common issue with this tablet (port not working with pc)
I edited my post
Nothing will appear on the TF screen in APX mode until data transfer begins
The cheap non genuine cables are renowned for data connection failing, genuine cables are recommended
I still have my original cable and it still works 100%

Using the original cable, I still can't tell if its in APX mode, installed all the drivers provided by asus, nothing is detected in windows device manager. I'm 100% its not being detected ie. no connection. I ran easyflasher anyway both sbk1 and sbk2 says it flashed recovery but it never did still the stock recovery is on the tablet.
Will try again once the new cable comes in, thanks.
Forget the ASUS drivers, use the Universal ones from the Easyflasher thread
Here's what will happen when its working as intended
When you plug the TF into the PC, no matter what mode it is in, the PC should sound the USB connect sound
When you power off the TF, then put it in APX mode, the PC will again sound the USB connect noise, then it will fail to install the correct drivers
That's when you open Device Manager, find the ! missing driver ! exclamation mark, and update drivers manually pointing it to the extracted Universal drivers
Once you have installed them, then Easyflasher should work as normal
So unless you actually have a hardware fault on the TF, or the USB ports of the PC, Id hedge my bets on the cable
Have you tried a different PC?

Ok, well ya thats the thing no sound or detection of anything when plugging it in, or going into apx mode, rebooting etc...
I tried 2 cables and 2 different PCs. Will try a new cable but I betting that is won't work either... we'll see.
Thanks again
No need to bother with cables and drivers, just download Baidu Root: https://app.box.com/s/pyehf9fh4xem3hy50dot
EDIT: The app has built-in su access management, but I'd recommend installing SuperSU from the Play Store.

Is my Device bricked?

All I see is a google logo, not rebooting just staying on the screen. I am pretty sure I deleted the operating system, but I can't seem to get in recovery. What lead up to this was me not being able to connect the device to windows over usb, nothing in device manager, I couldn't even get adb to connect even through twrp sideload. But now I think I caused a whole new issue. I'm just trying to get back to stock rooted lol. Advise?
Edit: unpluged battery and replugged it in, got into recovery now, still having issues connecting so I can flash a rom.
Edit: I have the google usb driver installed from the android sdk. I still can't see my device in windows device manager nor I can't see it through adb. still searching around for a solution.
Edit: I found my old rom still on the device so I was able to install that to actually use the device. I still can't seem to connect to the pc in any way though. I have usb debugging checked drivers installed. Windows just doesn't seem to think a device is there.

Try toggling MTP and/or PHP in USB options.
Your device might show up as an adb device in Device Manager.

Use a different usb port, different cords, or even a different computer, until you get a pc to recognize the phone.
I had this. It was because not all USB leads have data. Even some that do are wired different. Use the original or HTC work fine with N5 as I've both brands

[Q] Nexus 5 sideload stopped, No USB anymore

Hello,
i tried to update my Nexus 5 to 5.1 by using adb sideload.
First i installed the driver which did not work, i removed them and used an another and the device was recognized after that on windows.
So I started the sideload and it stopped at about 60% and the USB Connection was lost. I can not see the device in the device manager and if i use my linux computer i can not see any new entry if i use 'dmesg'. I used an another USB cable to check if this is broken. I tried to format the cache and it now still boots to the recovery mode.
Can it be that the USB driver in the N5 is broken now?
I wanted to prevent a factory reset, but i dont think that a FR will help here if i can not connect even in the recovery mode
Any suggestions?
Thank you!

Hmmm, intermittent ADB occured before attempted sideload falure.
Boot to bootloader and see if you can
fastboot devices
If you can detect the device in fastboot, but still cant ABD, then maybe take a look here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=59420668&postcount=322
After looking there, if you are absolutely certain that it is not a driver issue, you might be looking at a hardware failure of the charging port.

If it were me, I'd replace the port and re-attempt ADB sideload.
