You mean that your USB cable will charge your tab, but it will not connect to the PC?

Friend, it is not working even with the charger or the pc, do not receive any kind of load .. :\
Sorry, I'm having a little bit of trouble understanding you. So your tablet will neither charge nor connect to your pc?

Phone only charging on a 2.1 car charger and not connecting in windows

Hey everyone,
Thanks for taking the time to read my post.
My S6 will now no longer charge in the house, Unless im charging it wireless. I have a cigarete charger in the car that has two connections, 1.0A and 2.1A Plugging it into the 1.0 side does nothing but plugging it into the 2.1 side charges straight away, I have Ipad and Iphone chargers aswell and nothing charges it in the house.
Also if I try connect it to my computer I get the following " Unknown USB Device Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)
A request for the USB device descriptor failed.
Can anyone help me please... Its still covered under warranty by samsung till December this year so if I cant resolve it I might try contacting them.
Actually how would I even go about doing that? I live in Ireland by the way.
Thanks
Peace Out lol

have you tried a different cable? And maybe your USB port is somehow broken
I have indeed, tried different cables and different computers.
Sounds like it could possibly be be the port on the phone itself. Only way to tell is to do a factory reset and see if the problem still exists, if it does seeing as it under warranty, If the phone is still under contract call your network provider otherwise you will most likely have to call samsung UK and see which way to go about getting it looked at
Try switching it off and charging? Before resetting.
Mostly a hardware issue, and hopefully a connector issue.
Thanks guys,
I have tried everything that has been suggested, I suppose I will ring Samsung and see what they say.
Try to clean the usb port
It could be dust that prevents a good contact to charge the phone properly
I saved a few phones to be trashed by just cleaning the usb port
Maybe that helps you!
Have a nice day!

Possibly dead, help needed

So, hi everyone, wanted to ask for help with Galaxy S6 G-920F. Thing is it was working normal till one time it turned off and got stuck on bootscreen! As i had damaged usb port, i bringed it to local repair shop, they changed the port, it is kinda working now, BUT i cant connect to pc for odin. So thing is phone cant get to recovery mode( feels like he doesnt have it at all), i can get it to download mode, but cant get it recognized on PC, i tried different cables. And when i put it on charge, it doesnt shows up blue charging light but still charges up. So i would really appreciate if someone wouls help me with this kind of problem, as im really upset now. Thank you.
P.S pc doesnt shows and device when connected through USB.
Then the replacement port you had it's still faulty, if they didn't replaced the whole daughterboard with a new one, it's probably they messed up with bad soldering around the port.

Honor 8 won't connect to pc nor quick charge

So, my phone won't quick charge, nor will it connect to pc. Keep getting the divice not recognized and has malfunctioned. Stock everything, cause I can't unlock the bootloader to flash it. 7.0 android. Things I've tried, brand new cables, the charging block is the one that came with the phone. 3 different pcs, windows 7 to 10. USB Debugging, the secret enter code in dialer to the menu to enable hisense or whatever USB setting, enabling it USB to hisense in advanced (its not hisense its something, can't remember its the oem exe) various drivers and Android drivers.. I've tried it all almost. It's not beyond me to take the phone down and replace the port but I'd rather not if it's a common correctable issue. I reset this phone twice to see if a reset would fix it.. Nothing. Anyone else with the issue or something like it? Just wanna root this thing.. This is a "new to me" phone so probably why they sold it if it's the actual port jacked up, it's not a big big deal as my g3 was overheating and dying and I got this for $80.. Figure I came out on top cause the USB c boards are cheap enough. But I hate the glued together stuff cause you never get it exact when throwing it together or at least I don't. Big hands. So... Here is to hoping it's software. Phone works 100% other than that I like it.
Yeah, I know this. Quick charge won't work on the block. I'm not concerned with quick charge on my pc.. I'm concerned with connecting to my pc period. I can't connect at all. The bootloader is locked because I can't connect to pc to unlock it. So to recap. Quick charge will not work on the block at all so I lack being able to quick charge, and I cannot connect to a pc via USB. I have tried all the fixes I can think of in my original post with no success unless I missed something?
I'm thinking I'm gunna have to tear this phone apart and replace the dang port... Lol. Too easy.

Malfunctioning USB port. Trying to root but can not connect to cpu to flash

To start off my USB port seems to be malfunctioning. I can charge but will always get the " charging slow" error. It will even charge via usb port on a pc but it will not recognize it as an external Storage unit. Ive changed the usb settings via developer settings. However i do not get a usb notification on my phone giving me the option to switch the function.
Is there a way to connect to a PC to use flashing tools/ADB in order to unlock my loader as well as flash and send commands to my phone. I can use LG AirDrive but i do not believe commands can be sent through that. Would greatly appreciate help since im lead to believe rooting has just hit for the Stylo 4.
If it is any importance. I am on the stylo 4 bought through best buy not attached to any carrier Q710ULM is my model number
Did you try another USB cable? Ive had several that broken inside and the same happened. Changing USB cable solved it
Ive tried several. It is definetly my USB port. I think dollar store chargers did it in. And now since its always slowly charging i think it won't do any data transfer maybe in fear of loss of data due to bad connection?

Yours is a micro USB port right? Most likely it's a faulty USB port. See if you can get a store to replace it
Yes. Well a Type C but android charger none the less. I guess id have to send to LG to honor the warranty. I didnt purchase ot from a carrier and also did not get aj insurance plan when i connected it to t mobile.
In other words you are saying im SOL for getting on ADB? Atleast until a one click root has a method for this device.
Just to test. Did you test in another computer to see if it is detects it?
My computer corrupted the adb connection due to faulty drivers. Reinstalling windows fixed it because in another computer that i have it was detected normally. It's just to test the whole scenario here. If it doesn't work RMA it to LG
Yes I tested it on a computer as well as multiple outlets. I finally just took the back off and took out the port. It had a lot of corrosion around it. Almost all teal colored. I blame those dollar store chargers. I have no other explanation behind why it happened. Either way there is luckily someone wihtin range selling a bunch of parts on offerup so I was able to pick uo a new port for 7 dollars off of him. When I removed the back I was pretty surprised to see how the "non-removable" batteries are packages in there. Just a bunch of layers wrapped up in thin plastic with some tape around it. haha
