Can't connect with usb - Samsung Infuse 4G

My infuse has had no download mode for like years, It actually won't connect to my PC at all, yet it charges... my battery drains very quickly, the phone is laggy, I bought a jig for it, didn't fix anything, tried full wiping everything and a bunch of different roms, if anyone has any ideas, it would sure be appreciated... Thnx

Yeah I have an s3 also and that connects fine, it has to be something with the infuse, cause I can't flash anything cant update my bootloader or go back to stock.... anyone know if there's some part of the software that can be wiped or something to fix the usb problem...?

I've been in the same boat for a few months. Charge yes. Download mode yes. PC see phone on USB no. Power button failed and replaced it. Asked the place that fixed it about the USB problem and they replaced the USB connection but this didn't help. They said could be a bad USB controller. I've flashed multiple ROMs with full wipe and same story. New USB cables don't help. It seems it must be software related. Have removed all Samsung drivers from my PC and reloaded to no avail. I'd really like to return to stock or GB because I miss taking movies and listening to streaming music without chop. And I think I'm getting old and lazy. Fair likelihood I'll get an S3 or S4 soon and give the infuse to my kid. Maybe I'll something bigger...

This mode your in is download mode... pull your battery, maybe dust out your USB port, reboot with cable plugged in and if your connector isn't shot Odin should recognize your phone.

Logitech Tablet Keyboard

I recently bought this keyboard and been having many problems with it. I'm running team EOS ics wifi model, my mouse connects and runs just fine but the keyboard registers key strokes weird. I'll press a key quick and it types like 8 times. This happens every time I use it and it also disconnect a lot randomly . Is anyone else having problems like this?
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Yupp, sure did have the same problem. I just re-flashed the Rom and the gapps. Connected the keyboard first, connect the mouse second, disconnect the keyboard while mouse is still connected & finally re-connect the keyboard.
Worked for me, no device is similar to the last.

So should I wipe system? And also forget devices and reconnect them with the order you told me too?

I mean, its worth a shot. Just do a backup before you do so. You don't have anything to loose but something to gain if anything. Just wipe and don't worry about "forgetting" them as they will be forgotten during the wiping process. Re-install the same order as I expressed in the above reply. Good luck and keep me posted.

Flashed system, Flashed newest rom twice, flashed gapps, reboot. Connected mouse, then keyboard, then disconnect keyboard, reconnected. Still having the problem, I'm beginning to think its a faulty keyboard
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
Well I'm sorry you had to go through the trouble to come to find out its the keyboard. I would personally go to your local "Micro Center" and go to the clearance section to find a actual tablet keyboard. Bluetooth is Bluetooth but some manufacturers are iffy on the connectivity.
Keep me updated, I won't give up until this problem has been solved.

What do you mean by "broken?" Do you mean that you can only use the USB connector for charging?
No, it's broken it won't charge or connect to the computer it was broken when I bought it if I play with the cord it says it's charging icon pops up but you can see it drop while it's plugged in that tells me that it's broken i may get it fixed one day but until then I just mess around with it its still a decent phone to play with + I don't have my computer either its in the shop being repaired.

LOL. He knows it's broken. He's asking if there is a way to root without USB.
OP
There is no way that I know of to root without a USB connection. Sorry man. I bet you could have a decent repair shop replace it for under 50 bucks though.
I was reading an found you could root froyo can't find the link though in xda app supposedly you modify recovery and flash kernel for froyo but I can't figure it out does any know what I'm asking hope I'm making sense

[SOLVED] Issues when trying to connect to PC

Hello everyone,
So all of a sudden I'm having problems when trying to connect my new One S to my PC. This is really confusing so read carefully.
Typically, when we connect the device to a PC, the LED lights up and the USB icon shows up in the status bar. Here's the thing. When I try to connect my HOS to the PC, the LED blinks asynchronously and the icon on the status bar disappears and reappears. It's like the connection is loose.
My first thought was that there should be a hardware issue.
I tested the cable first for any issues. I tried another cable and the problem persisted. When I tried to connect my other device, an Xperia X8, there was no problem whatsoever. So, definitely, the cable is not producing the problem.
Next, I thought maybe the Micro USB port on my One S was the problem. I took a q-tip and cleaned it, although it already was clean. Tried again connecting it to the PC, no luck. But when I tried connecting it to my Laptop instead, there was no problem at all! And there's also no problem when charging it (from the wall charger).
My next thought was the PC's USB ports where causing the problem. I took a vacuum cleaner p) and dusted off any lint there was. So I tried connecting my HOS again and still no luck. Tried all 4 USB ports and even a USB extension cord.
If needed, my PC is running Ubuntu 12.04, my Laptop Win7 and my HOS is running CM10.
Now I'm really confused and I have no idea what to do next. Any thoughts?

I'd try recreating the problem on another Sense ROM with as little tweaks as possible.

Sorry but I gotta bump this.
I tried connecting it with Virtuous ROM, JB Sense and the issue is still present. I'm pretty sure it's not the ROM's fault.
Well... Have you tried reinstalling the drivers on the PC?

It's Ubuntu, there are no drivers. On my laptop with Windows, there's no issue and I didn't install any HTC drivers. Just the regular drivers Windows installs when detecting a new device.
Can someone please merge this thread with mine so we get the right answers in one thread please, this would help both of us and also anyone else that may come across our issues?

I should probably note that I'm not using an HTC Micro USB cable. Both cables I tried were Sony (Xperia X8) cables.

Have you tried installing Linux to the laptop?
Well it's my father's laptop so I'm not allowed to mess around with it. So no, I can't install Linux there.

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about live CD/USB. Luckily, I had one ready.
So I tried Ubuntu on my laptop and the connection is totally fine.
Will try mounting in recovery later.

I think its the chipset that Linux is having issues with so maybe look into updating that or changing it for another version.
Could you tell me more? I don't understand.

The chipset is pretty much the motherboard which of cause controls USB and other stuff. So you need find out what you on and then see if there is an update.
So I should check if there is a software update for my motherboard. Sorry, I'm not well informed concerning hardware
Will do.

Hello!
Which Version is your ROM at? Everything except the Jelly bean update (4.1) should work out of the box.
From jelly bean on you will need libmtp. You want to use mass storage? As far as i know One S has just recently been added to libmtp things. So if there would be a problem you may contact the bugowner or just wait for a working kio slave with mtp.
Greetings,
R
PS.: I use opensuse so things are for sure different. I will just wait for a kio slave that works.
Maybe my information is not precise enough or not correct but you could give it a go:
Try google for:
[How to] Connect your Android Ice Cream Sandwich ... - OMG! Ubuntu!
Maybe you can work with this.

S3 Will not connect to computer.

So last I synced my phone was about a month ago so I went to sync it again yesterday to get all my new music and an error popped up saying "USB Device not recognized" So I went to another computer same thing. One is running win8 the other win7. I uninstalled Kies and all driver and reinstalled them on both computers same thing USB error. I tried my girlfriends S3 today and it connected no problem. So I know its a problem with my phone and not my computers. I have tried clearing the cache rebooting in safe mode and download mode, pulling out the battery and sim and pretty much everything else with no fix. What else am I missing here or what should I try?
R you using the cable that came with your s3?

It doesn't matter which cable you're using, as long as it's a micro usb cable.
Wipe data and cache and if this doesn't help, flash another ROM and another Kernel.
