***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?

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.
The problem started a few days after flashingMegbyte Kernel r_4 on top of RR 5.5.8 on my 1.5 year old Moto X.
Here's what i did and what happened after that-:
-Kernel Auditor->Battery-> Enabled "Fast Charging over USB"->Apply on boot (Wasn't available in stock Kernel)
- Worked fine for a day or so
-Phone starts to misbehave. I plugged the usb cable, but it used to take a few seconds for actually start charging
-The ROM becomes unstable
-I switched off my phone and plugged the charger. The motorola "Bootloader Unlocked" warning shows up. It shows that big battery indicator, but then switches off automatically.The process repeats and this keeps happening until i don't unplug the charger or force boot.
-Meanwhile, when my phone is turned on, and i plug in the charger, sometimes it shows the charging indication in statues bar, but when i got Settings-> Battery, it shows that it isn't charging.(Can't post any link to screenshot yet ._.)
-Sometimes, when i plugged in the charger, the phone didn't show any indication or charged
(MY CABLE AND CHARGER IS COMPLETELY FINE. USED ON OTHER PHONES)
-I thought it was the ROM's fault, so i flashed CM 12.1
-I am on CM now and still facing the problem
-I've tried callibrating the battery, no luck!
-My computer detects that theres a device when my phone is connected via USB, but cant detect what device it is. I've downloaded Motorola USB drivers. The computer did detect which device i was using but only for a minute or so.
I am in need of help and your help would be appreciated! :]

no idea whats going on. is it a known bug or something? please help
Hello there everyone, hope you guys are doing great. Well, this thread might be a bit stupid at first since many others might have posted something related to it but since I couldn't find the exact answer, I had to post a newer thread.
I have a Fire Phone which used to run great and perfect and I had been using it the other day while charging it with an Aspor Powerbank which does run great. The Fire Phone got stuck due to a few NOT FOR THE FIRE PHONE apps such as the Instagram and the rest. When stuck, I held the power button for 10-15 seconds to do a reset and it did work while it was still on charging. Now the phone wouldn't turn on without the AC power via the USB. It gets stuck in a boot-loop. Just shows the Amazon logo and restarts again. Nothing works at all, not even the recovery mode or the rest or even resets without the USB plugged in.
I did try to upgrade but was of no use at all, did try the Cynogen OS by flashing it in. It didn't work at all and the same issue persists. I have removed the battery and plugged it back in but again of no use. The battery does charge if you think it's the battery, The battery does stay there active and great. I did try changing the USB cable and the Adapter. Nothing!
One more thing, when plugged in to AC, I can go to the Recovery Mode and then remove the USB cable, the Recovery Mode does stay active on battery power for countless hours. What should I do?
Is it the USB port? Is the battery? Or is it just me?
Oh btw, I did try installing the Stock Update available on Amazon.com and the PC (Windows 8 64-bit) does recognize the phone on ADB mode. Does list the serial of the phone when connected but when side-loading an update via the ADB, it says that it doesn't read! Gives an error. How do I work on that? I did try installing the ADB drivers again but still nothing. Did try downloading the updates from other sites and even a downgraded file, nothing works. What should I do?
Hi,
yesterday i replaced the mainboard of my g955f. After that i rooted the phone and flashed a newer stock rom with odin. I didn't like the rom and tried to install an older one. But because of the newer bootloader version of the installed stock rom i got a FAIL in odin after hitting the start button. Then i disconnected the phone, downloaded a newer stock rom and flashed it via odin without any problems. But since then my g955f shows some strange power charging behavior:
1. When i turn it off and plug in the usb charger then the download (odin) mode comes up and it doesn't charge. But i can exit the download mode via power+vol. down and the phone restarts and boots up normally. Everything else works and looks normally, too (booting into twrp, connecting to pc via usb, turn phone on without usb connection etc.). It also doesn't charge when i plug in the cable and turn it off.
2. I can only charge my phone when i restart it, wait until the homescreen appears and then plugin the cable. If i would wait until the lockscreen/standby-screen shows up or i put it into standby and then plug in the cable it won't charge. Furthermore it wont charge after i charged and unplugged it, put it into standby and then plug it in again. But if i avoid standby/lockscreen after unpluging and plug it in again, then it charges.
I have already tried other stock and custom roms but the behavior is the same. Because of the working usb connection to the pc and the ability to charge (under special circumstances) i don't think that the problem is hardware-related. To me it seems like a file/software/firmware-problem. I guess that standby and shutdown set some status information/flags that prevent the phone from charging.
Have you any idea what i can do to fix the problem?
