No usb connection?

Hi everyone,
I'm not sure if it's just me being a noob or if there is something borked on my P6 but I cannot for the life of me get any of my computers to recognise my P6 when I connect it via USB. I have installed the Mobile Drivers and have also tried putting it into USB Debugging mode but the computer doesn't see the phone. It does, however, charge it via USB but I get nothing else saying I'm connected and HiSuite also reports me as not being connected. Any ideas?
Ok, this is solved. Apparently, the phone's USB cable and another that I tried did not work with the phone but I swapped out to a third cable and it works fine.

[Q] Root without computer (broken usb port)

I have an old HTC Droid Incredible that I want to root so I can install Market Helper and do a few other things. My problem is that the micro usb port is broken. It doesn't charge and nothing happens when I connect it to the computer. I have tried about 20 cables. Is there any way to root this phone without a computer?

Not that I know of.
You mean this? They won't let me post URL but search for WiFi ADB in google play store. Should be compatible with your android version also. No root required.
can't confirm if it works but this seems like it would be your best bet.

[Q] Easycap via USB OTG not working

Hi,
I would like to use lg g3 as a screen for my reverse/backup camera in a car. Before buying the g3 I checked that it supports OTG and latest Android has easycap drivets built in so you do not have to root the phone.
I have got easycap with UTV007 chip which should be supported and I checked that it works on windows laptop. I have got USB OTG cable. If I connect mouse to g3 in otg mode it does work.
However if I connect easycap it does not. I am using one of the reverse camera apps. I ran usb host check program and got the following output:
Android.hardware.usb.host.xml OK
Handheld.core.hardware.xml : usb host not enabled
Tablet.core.hardware.xml : not found
When i tap "fix" i am getting "could not start su process".
To me it sounds like it needs root rights to update some configuration. G3 has factory android 5.0 installed. I have enabled usb debugging but it did not help.
Do you know what the problem is and how can I get easycap working?
I would prefer to not root the device neither to install custom roms because I have no experience (my first week on android)
Thanks in advance!
Forgot to mention: The phone is D855 v20i TWN XX Android 5.0 kernel 3.4.0 if it makes any difference
So I have installed busybox and terminal, no root yet.
I have found handheld.core.hardware.xml and it does not "include" anything to do with usb host- is this a problem?
Furthermore there are numerous files like video0, video1,...video31,video32 in /dev/ - can someone please help explain it?
What is the best thing to check next?
hello. Have you tried using an otg y-cable? It may make no difference, but perhaps a y-cable with power source may help.

ALCATEL IDOL 2 6037k won't connect via USB cable

Hello guys.
My alcatel idol 2 won't connect to my laptop but it charges.
I installed all drivers for USB connection and nothing happens.
I tried a different USB cable and it still doesn't work.
I also tried to connect to another 2 laptops and it won't connect either.
I tried to turn on and off USB debugging.
Also looked up for some USB settings and found nothig in mobile.
Safe mode and factory reset didn't help either.
I need to flash a new ROM bcs my mac adress and bluetooth adress got somehow deleted, so i cant download nor send any softwares in it...
Any Ideas how to fix it?
Thanks.

Well...I think i gotta figure it out alone...
You need to unlock the phone if it has a pass.
try more cables xD
I think you need to just get a usb data cable.

Your problem seems simular to what I had.
If you are sure the software settings are ok and that doesnt work, remove the backcover remove the battery connector, put it back again and see if that works. Does charging work?

Thats weird my s2 tablet has USb problems to. It stopped reading OTG usb connections and the PC. However it is always able to charge. I have noticed that when it does finally read on the PC it seems like the drives dont switch right and my battery wont charge. It got to the point I dont even try to plug it into a pc or USB otg just incase it quits charging I have SD card and twrp for installs so I use that instead. Most be a problem with the usb port and drivers.

I dont know the answer nor the solution.
What I noticed however is that I used my tablet as an monitor for an USB web cam.
The problem (charging but not being able to connect to PC) started AFTER I removed the webcam.
The app I use (USB Camera Pro) has an option "remove camera safely"
If I use that option everything works fine but if I remove the cam cable without pressing this option I cant connect to my PC anymore and have to unplug the battery.
I am having a similar issue and would be grateful for help. My Tab T815 has a clean install of the latest Android 10 Rom and Pico Gapps via TWRP 3.4. All seem to be working great apart from the USB OTG. Specifically, I am trying to connect my DJI Mini drone controller and it's not registering it plugged in. I also have Android 10 on a galaxy S5 and have no issues at all when I connect the DJI controller to the phone. I have run a diagnostic app that says OTG is compatible with the T815 so am now at a loss on what to try next. Could this be an issue with the Rom?
