Cant access Recovery Mode

Hi Guys,
I have my friends i9003 with me. Its having a weird problems :
1) It successfully boots after 5-6 tries, but eventually hangs after a min on home screen.
2) Its unable to enter recovery mode.
3) It can enter download mode, but its not detectable by odin/PC. As soon as i connect to PC, it shows usb device not recognized. I have tried 2-3 different pc's, uninstalled/reinstalled kies/samsung drivers etc. On the same pc my SGS1 & SGS2 can connect without any problems. So i guess the problem is with i9003. (So i cant flash anything on it)
4) And the last but not the least.....it cannot be charger (tried pc usb / charger). But the battery seems ok, as i can charge it using other phones and dock charger.
..........any help and advice will be really appreciated.

have u tried the hard reset button at the back between the camera and speaker.

I've a I9003L with the same problem (it's carrier locked), I think it has no recovery at all !
Maybe flashing CWM

Its use to get into download mode right !!! But i can easily get into download mode without doing it. The problem here is pc/odin does not detect it.

Just wanted to make sure you didn't have a problem as obvious as I had. I had similar issue when i tried my micromax cable with this phone.
Well, you'll need some expert's advice now.

Looks liek i found the problem, its same as many i9003's are having. Internal memory card corrupted !!! Have found some risky solutions, but will try them, cuz the phone is already out of guarantee !

i had also faced the same problem but i was unable to do it with that solution u can refer my thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1735718 and i have given my mobile to the service centre for replacing motherboard

USB data connectivity

Hey !
Recently bought a used n8010 tablet, It only had a 3m cable and charger, when connected to pc it would only charge but wouldn't be recognized
So, bought a 1m data/charge cable on ebay
First one received wouldn't fit in the tablet, so I contacted seller and he sent a new one, that can plug in (but not the same as first one, this one got an arrow on one side), but, pc still doesn't recognize it
I really wanted to root it for GMD S pen control and eventually flash a custom rom, and was potentially thinking about reselling the tab if not totally satisfied with it
So now I'm wondering, did he send me a charge only cable, or does my tablet have a problem ? Am I doing something wrong ?
Thanks for help

Bump
Bought another data cable and also got a usb otg cable with it, but, same happens, usb otg doesn't seems to be working ?
Not sure it should on this tablet idk, but data cable also only charge, tablet doesn't show on the pc ?
Any idea ? Could usb be broken ? and only be useable to charge ?
Any way to root without odin ? And transfer all on wifi with airdroid or other app
Thanks for help

Please provide more info:
What OS is on your PC (Win7/8,OSX,Linux?)
Have you installed Samsung Device Driver (Win7/8)?
Have you installed ADB (all....but I don't think Linux required one)?
What USB port do you have on your PC (USB2 / 3) ?
Have you tried factory reset?
Have you flashed Custom Recovery?

1. Look at your Win Device Manager if there's broken driver sign &/or conflicted device with your N8000.
2. Kies is troublesome,so I won't recommend Kies.
Try to install Samsung Device Driver only.
3. ADB = Android driver, usually included in the samsung device driver.
4. If you plug it into USB3, make sure you have an updated USB3 driver (it is extremely rare case of incompatibility)
5. Factory Reset once more
6. No/Maybe, most mobile device can use the microSD to flash firmware but I haven't searched about it.
Worst case scenario is....you have a broken set of device :s
UPDATE:
Method 1B
You can find and download the update.zip by yourself, place it on the phone in /sdcard/ and boot into recovery using the 3 button method, choose the option "re-install package" TWO TIMES to load into CWM. Once again the update.zip needs to remain on the phone. DO NOT DELETE!

Sooo, the ekit didn't light up, DATA seems really broken :s
Found that the connector would cost ~25e if I change it myself, but not sure I'll try :/ I also need to change the screen again about 30e (not lcd, but seems lot dust under it, and it's not perfect :s), back got some scratches :s. + Maybe the mb is broken for data ? Can't tell :s
Is if possible to clean dust without changing the screen ?
Idk what to do, try to resell ? (bought 260, ;s maybe can get 235 ? It's a 32gb version)
Also, about cwm, If I install it that way, If I factory reset from android, will it delete files ?
Not sure what's the best

Check this out.
Charging Port Flex Cable Repair Parts for Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 Tablet N8000
Most of the time it's the 30 pin charging/data port that broken. Broken Mobo is extremely rare.
You can use a small air compressor to clean the dust by opening the case of your N8000 unit.
About CWM...
Flashing CWM won't erase any data, but Factory reset will.
But the data it erase won't be in Internal SD (Virtual SD - /sdcard) & External microSD (/mnt/extSdCard)
If you want to fully wipe your device, do a backup first & do the wipe via CWM.
Use WiFi connection to do the Backup if you decide to fix it.
...and if you want to hide the scratches, use a slim Cover Case
The Options:
Re-sell the unit
Repair the unit
This is a cutting lost situation, calculate the cost for both options.
If you are unsure, better to re-sell it or if you can return it.

Stuck in recovery without an OS and i can't use the usb port.

Hi guys,
Two weeks ago, I decided to try another rom, as I often do.
I booted into the recovery, formated everything, and got the rom ready on my computer.
However, when I connected the usb cable to the phone, nothing happened. Strange, it had no problems before. Tried another PC and a few other cables (the original one too). Nothing.
The phone only charges but isn't recognized by any computer (it doesn't even show up in the device manager and there is no sound). The drivers are ok, it worked before that.
I also tried an otg cable with the rom on a usb drive and it doesn't see that either.
I thought, "great", my usb port data pins must be dead so I ordered one. I'm so lucky that i got a DOA one. (this one isn't even charging the phone)
So now I'm waiting for a new one or a refund.
Do you know any way to transfer a file/rom to the phone that has no OS (it boots fine in the recovery - twrp) without using a cable?
Thanks

I'm not sure of the finer details but can't you do it via fastboot. Or at least I would imagine you could install stock rom this way. ??? Like I said I'm no expert just a guess.
Good luck.

You cannot use fastboot without a USB connection to a computer.
Maybe there is some dust or dirt in your USB port. Try using some compressed air to blow it out, or try taking a small plastic knife or something similar and scraping it a bit. Once your computer recognizes is, then you can proceed.

It is possible that a windows update or something messed with the drivers. I would uninstall the drivers and start over.

Cannot adb into device from pc, charging slow draining fast help

My NEXUS 5 just recently starting giving me issues, battery draining about 15% per hour (without use) takes about 4 hours to charge and I cannot adb into device (computer does not see it at all) ive tried multiple cables and I have the original charger plus many after market chargers in good working order. I can get into TWRP and flash roms but no matter what i do results are the same. (marshmallow rom currently) could my usb port be suspect?
Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated
thanks in advance

ADB or Fastboot? If your phone is on and booted up and you are trying to run ADB commands, click on the notification that tells you what mode you are in. I think by default it is in charging only mode. Tap to change modes and select PTP. I think that's what it is. Then your computer should see it.

Probably a driver problem. Have you changed laptop/OS recently? Try installing on your PC Wugfresh's Nexus Root Toolhit and following the instructions in Install and Test Drivers - the long button top right.

Doesn't see it in MTP, PTP or charging mode, it use to in both, not a driver issue either. I have 3 other Nexus 5's and 2 nexus 7's in the house I've done flashing both via ADB through windows and with TWRP there is definitely an issue I just can't figure it out

Yes, tried on multiple computers, multiple USB ports and USB cables. Any chance of a "bad flash" I unroofed, upgraded to latest 6.01 and re-rooted everything seemed fine? No drops to phone or anything out of the ordinary other than the upgrade

From the sound of it seems like your USB port is dead.

I have that warning with my HTC 10 prerootet rom.
But only if I have adb active in engineersettings.

USB not working after flashing Lineage OS 15.1

Hi all, a couple nights ago I flashed Lineage 15.1-20180806 to my OPO and everything went smooth. This morning I tried to connect it to my pc to transfer some pics and to my surprise the PC doesn't recognize it.
It looks like the PC is "trying" to establish a connection because the led in the phone blinks really fast for some small periods of time. The phone isn't charging when connected to the PC either.
What I have already tried:
- I already enable USB debugging in developer options
- Set MTP as default usb configuration
- Tried 2 different cables and different usb ports in PC.
I will try again in another computer when I get home but, honestly, this doesn't seem to be a problem with my PC or the cable as those were the ones I used when I flashed the rom and I also used the same cable when I transferred files to the same PC in the past. The phone was running Lineage OS 13 before the flash I think.
Any idea what else can I try to get it to work? I'm afraid I will be attached to this rom forever since I won't have a way to flash another ROM right?
EDIT:
If I go into recovery mode (TWRP) and plug the usb cable the PC recognizes it and I can transfer my files. So I'm 100% sure this is on Lineage OS. Again, when I get home I will see if ADB works while in TWRP but still would like to know if any of you guys has had this issue solved.
Thanks!

okay

Is Lineage OS 15.1 supporting VoLTE by any way.

Had the same issue... and had this issue always coming back, currently with LOS18 (some devices worked, others didnt - couldnt see a pattern).
I tried all the triggers like setting File Transfer, disabling USB Debugging - nothing worked...
...until I rebooted my device (a YT703L).
In the end, it should be either (not sure which one actually)
File Transfer - always on (in DevSettings Default USB) or
USB Debugging off (also Dev Settings)
AND reboot.
