USB disappeared

anyone have a cure for usb connectivity disappearing?
when connected to any pc that has all the drivers, with any cable, my phone will charge but no drop down notification appears, and there is no menu in my settings-storage to select mtp, etc. ..pc also doesn't see my device.
running jb now but problem was around with lh1...

Have you changed anything in your build.prop file, like the mod to make google wallet work?

I had the usb problem too when i used a new custom kernel that came out a while back. Are your running one or a custom ROM with one? I fixed mine by flashing a stock touchwiz ROM.
Hope this helps.

No custom kernel...I did play with recoveries before going to stock JB. I had CWM then TWRP, but now back to stock with Mobile ODIN.
I just flashed Stock LH1 with a full wipe, then flashed the leaked OTA JB thinking it would work the bug out, but its still there...

Turn off usb debugging.

So as of now, what is your phones condition?
Stock?
Stock, rooted?
Rooted, custom ROM?
Let me know.
If i read you right, your phone is on stock and you are still having this issue. Am i correct?
Report back.

Try flashing a ROM or use odin to flash it totally back to stock. Try flashing the ROM first since you can always fix that with odin.
That way we can tell if the phone is having hardware issues or not.

Or just turn off usb debugging.

And you are positive that you have all the drivers for the phone installed?

T999v jellybean ..

So im on stock rooted and lets say i get the update but im rooted do i need to unroot to proceed ??.. or i can do it whit root? Cant wait for some jellybean goodies
Sent from my SGH-T999V using xda premium

Root should be fine. Its the custom recovery that'll prevent you from even being able to get the update.
You will lose root though unless you use voodoo rootkeeper or mobile odin pro.

Its pretty straight forward actually. There should be steps laid out in post 2 of the fw thread and I believe Theexel hasit in his thread stickied in this section.
If you have any problems let me know, but don't see a reason to retype it all again!

Along the same lines...I just got an s3 yesterday and rooted stock 4.0.4. Used OTA root keeper, downloaded the ota for JB and when I attempt to upstate it fails....I have stock recovery. No idea why it keeps failing. I would Odin the prerooted JB but my wife doesn't want to lose her settings she already set up. Any ideas?

You probably have a custom recovery causing it to fail.
Regardless of how you update you will possibly lose some settings. Its recommended, but not required to do a clean update anyway. But flashing with odin should preserve your settings as well as the ota would. Once they boot up it shouldn't matter as the resulting build is the same.

So let's say I download the flash able version of the JB stock OTA, I can flash it through stock recovery or twrp or cwm, right?
Sorry, not new to flashing ROMs at all..but normally I flash custom ROMs and don't care about losing anything, but my wife likes the touchjizz...lol

Depends if you've done anything to your current build.
Cwm will flash it, but I just don't care for it. Caused probs for quite a few people.
But you have to be full stock. No mods, no deodexing, no bloat removal, no modems flashed, etc.
Then you should be able to flash it in cwm.
Its preferred you do it through stock recovery. You can use voodoo rootkeeper to preserve root.

My i747 does the same, I've tried several time with stock kernel, Ziggy kernel and kt747 kernel but I Berber got passed the logo. I tried both, cwm and twrp latest recovery. It is the only ROM not booting on my phone so I'm not sure what's up with that.

Which really stinks because I love Galaxymod but I guess I got lucky that it worked well for me with minimal effort. There one thing I've never had to do on 5 phones and wont say it for fear of jinxing myself haha

I suggest you go back to stock firmware and then try the code. Just make a nandroid and backup your pictures and stuff.
Some say it being rooted will make a code note work. Never tried myself

Thanks however Is this a fact because I would like to avoid flashing back to stock if possible. I guess it would be the safest thing to do but definitely would prefer not to.
