Usb Connection problem

Just got my droid charge today (it wa a replacement for a revolution) for some reason when I connect the usb cord it just charges it doesnt ask if I want to use as usb or anything. is this an odd setting I am not used to?

Go into the notifications drop down. Change from charge only to usb mass storage.

You have a bad cable, I had this same problem.

Is there any difference in cables? I was wondering about that the cable I have is the one from my revolution they said to keep it and didnt send a new charger

yeah you may need a new one, preferably the one that comes with the Charge though you're probably gonna have to buy it... I think the stock samsung cable that comes with the phone is the only one that reliably connects and transfers data

Man now i am going to have to wait to root haha

know a friend with a newer samsung phone? borrow it, I think most newer samsung cables all work (I use one from my Fascinate and it works fine)

go figure verizon said its the same cord

So they said they are sending me a phone and a cord. the guy from verizon even said I have absolutely no idea why its not working everyone here is also confused. so they are sending me a new phone and cord. I am starting to lose trust in their certified devices this makes 5 phones in 2 weeks

Its not bad it's just not ment for that phone just like my fascinate wire Is loose when connected to my charge

[Q] Droid Charge Won't Connect to PC

I have tried installing drivers, tried checking usb-debugging, tried different ports, bought a new usb-charging set, tried other types of cables, tried changing the ask on connect to usb mass storage, tried factory reset.....Nothing works. But I can charge my phone just fine. *sigh* Any advice? haha

So does your phone charge? If so you know its not the port on the phone. Would think it would be drivers or usb port on computer.

Are you trying to use a usb 3.0 port? In my experience they don't work at all.

The phone charges fine. And the USB ports are definitely 2.0 not 3.0.
It's very frustrating. I've never had this problem before when trying to root.
Usually it's oh, I forgot to wipe the delvik cache. Not oh, my phone won't connect to my computer. haha

Try a different computer to make sure the problem can be reproduced first.
Usb buses can have problems.

just tried a different computer and different cables. Both didn't work.

Try using the cable that came with your Charge. I've found mine to be very picky on what cables it will work with, but the original has always worked.

I bought my charge second hand and it didn't come with a cable. I had to buy a stock oem cable for the droid charge on amazon and it doesn't work.

see if you can get into download mode and if odin will recognize it

haha unfortunately ive tried that to. no go

I'm assuming that I got an update pushed last night, because I woke up and my phone works. Case Closed.

Are you talking about OTA update? So your phone is pure STOCK? no rooted, no mod? What version? I thought OTA was done along time ago?

This happened to me before. I used the dialer code that let's you choose pda and I unchecked pda then re checked it. Im at work, maybe someone can post the thread. Good luck.

Sounds like you are using a "charge only" USB cord. Do you have the one that came in the box with your Infuse?

USB not working
When I try to connect to the computer to transfer music or whatever to the Infuse it won't let me. I plug in the data cable click mass storage, click connect USB I get "do you want to scan and fix". If I click scan and fix I get "check disk options". Any combination of the check boxes will make the phone disappear and starts the scanning process, like I had disconnected it. I'm running Zeus 6 w/ICS theme for build 6. Is there any special way these disks should be formatted? Any help would be appreciated.

Wow! Nothing?
Now when I plug in to the computer it doesn't even recognize the phone. It's like I never plugged it in. The phone will still asks kies/media/mass storage. I click mass storage then click connect to PC then nothing. It's almost to the point of going out on the deck and teach this phone how to fly.

my infuse is doing about the same thing.
plug it into the wall...nothing.
try different outlet...nothing.
try different charger and cord...nothing.
plug it into my computer...starts to charge only, no usb mode.
computer says "one of the usb devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned, and windows does not recognize it.
ANY HELP?

I had the something happen yesterday. I restarted phone and pc but same thing. Ended up cleaning the mini usb port on the phone with an old toothbrush (and nothing else) and it started working again! Must have been some crap in there or something.

[Q] Phone isn't mounting to computer, but will charge! Please help!

I've had my nexus for a while, soon to be going on a year and I haven't been able to mount it to my computer for, I'd say like 4-5 months? It randomly just stopped working one day. It'll still charge when I plug my phone in. I've checked NStools and fastcharge is unchecked. I've cleaned the port a couple times. I still can't figure out why it won't mount. I don't think it'd be a hardware problem either because it still charges. I'm rooted and my bootloader is unlocked, I've also tried tons of different roms to see if that was the problem. It won't even mount through recovery, but like sometime last month it randomly mounted one time and It never did after that. I've spent countless hours on google trying to figure it out. Can someone PLEASE help me?

go into phone and dial *#*#8778#*#* and check if UART is modem, and USB is PDA.
If it's not, that's your problem.
If that doesn't work, flash a different kernel

UART is "PDA" but whenever I select "Modem" it changes back after I hit the back button.
I also tried two different kernels. Franco and Matr1x.

maybe you have encryted your phone?

Same exact thing happened to me. U think its an issue with Samsung phones.

Uninstall all of your Windows 7 USB drivers. Reboot computer, and connect Nexus S using USB. I find it best to connect through CWM recovery, by mounting your USB storage. Let your computer install the drivers, and then enjoy! It should be perfectly functional after that.

It's only Windows 7 that it does that on. I've tried computers with Windows XP before too, and my school Macs.

Try this:

That happened once to me, then I realized I was using an "only charge" USB cable from a car kit I bought. Using the original cable fixed the problem.

[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.
