So here's the deal. My phone is stuck at 2.3.6 no matter what I try. I tried Kies update it wont recognize my device. I tried Odin to get CWM the same thing. I have tried numerous computers and none will recognize my device yet all of which I can charge my phone off of. When I press volume up and down all I get is an option to install update from zip, wipe cache, and format phone. Why can I not root this phone? My build number shows GINGERBREAD.UCLA3. Please help.

Using windows 7 and if the pins were messed up would it still charge the battery?

Ya I think 2 pins are data and 2 are power.

I know this is rather simple, but in your actual phone settings, did you set up USB connect as charge only? This is what it is sounding like to me that you have done.
Go into phone settings, and then USB Utilities, then connect storage to PC. Low and behold your computer should quickly go nuts and say HEY we've got something here to play with. You might want to try to do this with the Phone unplugged from the computer to start with, then once the phone tells you to plug it into the computer do it then.

It's not clear what state your phone is in but if you can boot and have root mobile odin should work.

You can try to flash the below official ICS Stock roms via CWM, then try to reconnect with PC to flash via ODIN for complete stock.

Do you have the necessary drivers installed on the pc? Try installing Kies on the pc. It will install the proper drivers for you.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I727 using xda premium
Yes i have installed keis i even downloaded the drivers straight from the Samsung website too. Everytime i connect my phone to the computer(any computer) it says usb not recognized/malfunction. I have read many threads about how to fix this but none have worked for me. Im thinking about returning this phone because its still under warranty but its rooted.

Works fine but i connect my phone to my comp for backing up files and flashing you know that kinda stuff. I wonder what could if caused it. I remember it started when I was using fb app and it suddenly just shut off and wouldnt come on. When I tried to charge it because it seem like it was dead it would keep vibrating over and over again just like boot looping. Even now if phone is off and I connect the charger it won't show the battery meter but automatically turn it self on. So I think I'll have to send it to att warranty.

If you bend the inside of the port on your phone towards making the small side bigger it works.

Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-T769 using xda app-developers app
Uninstall USB drivers and than plug in the blaze and let your PC recognize it or go to the T-Mobile site and DL the drivers. I've had that happen when I plugged in other phones, most recently when I got my s4. It wouldn't let me open the folders for the blaze. It would flash on than off. Just don't plug the other phone in again after you get the drivers. If it still don't work try regedit and see if its leaving behind traces after the uninstall of the drivers.:good:
I have read lots of post, but could not find any post related to my issue.
After flashing different ROMs and Kernels my G2x wont boot into any ROM.
I have tried "volume up and down", it wont recognize USB.
Only way I know phone is working is that it turns on and boots only into clockworkmode recovery.
Please let me know if you know any fixes for this issue.
It kinda sounds like u may of flashed the kernel. I flashed a ics kernel by mistake on a cm7 rom and it did what you described. I used a process called nvflash.
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda app-developers app
How did you do NV flash I am not able to connect to pc? Is it possible to run the zip from clockworkmod?
Sent from my LG-P999 using Tapatalk 2
Hey man, could you give us a little more information so we could try to figure out what is causing the issue? First off, did you originally install CWM with NvFlash?
Secondly, what was the latest setup (rom, kernel, gapps, tweak/mods, etc) that you flashed and in what order? Did you accidentally format or delete something you shouldn't have? Do you have the proper drivers installed for the phone to be recognized by your PC? Since you're able to get into CWM, try doing a full wipe and reflashing rom, kernel and gapps. Make sure sure to do a full data factory/reset, wipe both caches, format /system under mounts and storage, and try fixing permissions after flashing.
I believe I had Richie MIUI rom first with Mazout360 gb kernel then then I switched to different kernel. Phone wasn't doing well with any of those kernels so I went into recovery, wiped and flashed different rom. After which my phone didn't boot and was going straight into recovery. I wiped mount data/all of them; mount and unmount /all; used volk nulifier ; used scrub. I did all of that because I was not able to use USB / power volume up and down don't work neither. I don't know what else to do.

Its probably soft-bricked, its nearly impossible to hard-brick the G2x.
Load a ROM onto your microSD card and then flash it from there and you should be good to go.
I did that many times it still boots in recovery.
