Hello. When I connect my phone with usb cable and charge it freezes. Sometimes instantly, sometimes after a few minutes. This started happening yesterday. I tried with 3 usb chargers, two different roms, always clean flash and still same problem. If I have screen on it stays on this screen, if the screen's off, I cannot turn it in, only battery removal helps. Any ideas? Could it be something with micro usb part on the phone?
yes, seems to be usb port issue.
It's just weird, it was working fine, but then I flashed new ROM (updated it actually) and since then I have problems ... From USB, lost IMEI, wifi ...
EDIT: previously I just clean flashed 6.0 ROMs. I switched back to 4.x and everything works fine now.

Last night up did a clean install of starburst 1.9.8r and all was well. My battery ran down to 2% before I plugged it in. The battery continued to run down and turned off while plugged in. It continued to turn itself back on, boot up, and then turn off. I pulled the battery, put it back in and the phone charged to 100% while off.
This morning I am having major issues.
1. The screen keeps turning on for no reason. If I turn it off, it turns back on in a few seconds. A few times, it has come on brighter than the highest brightness setting.
2. The phone will not connect to a computer via USB. I've tried 3 cables, 2 computers, USB debugging on and off, CWM, and Odin. Nothing will work.
3. The phone charges when plugged into both USB and AC, but most of the time the touchscreen does not work while plugged in.
4. The phone keeps freezing and only a battery pull will fix it.
I have tried everything I can think of to fix it. I tried to reinstall the rom, I have restored a nandroid, and downloaded and installed a different rom.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Update
I have now tried 4 computers and countles cables.
When I plug in the usb, windows makes the sound as if it is connected, then quickly disconnects. It continues to do this constantly. Some of the times it says it is connected to mtp usb. I've read everyting I can read and can't find a solution.
This sounds more like a hardware problem than anything. Try flashing back to EG30 stock and a factory data reset. Do you still have these issues? If so try a different battery. Still have problems? If so most likely you are having an odd hardware problem.
Hello, I have been looking everywhere for months on a solution to my problem and though I have been read about many similar problems mine is a bit different.
My s3 will not connect to any PC. No notification on the PC or phone is visible. The last time it worked I was flashing from CM10 to stock via Odin then update through kies to stock 4.1.
*Note: I was non cm10 with ktoons kernel using fast charge(for about a week) I noticed my phone was getting too hot while charging which was what really made me move back to stock.(plus cm10.1 was not out and I wanted to try a stable version of jb)
The original cable that came with my s3 broke in about a week. So I was using an old mytouch4g charger/cable for a while. My my touch 4g cable was all broken too but it worked. I remember that when I wanted to use Odin to flash to stock my phone would not be detected (though it was working before.) So I asked my sister for her cable. It worked and I flashed to stock, booted to Ubuntu on my PC to set it up. I noticed the the device Id wasn't showing (it did appear a few times but dissapeared pretty fast) after about 2hrs of trying to get it to work nothing. Booted to windows 8 and it wasn't being detected either. So since then I,ve been trying to get it work.
Problems I'm facing:
-No USB connection on any computer.(but charges)
-No USB notification
-slow charging when connected via wall charger(sometimes it won't charge at all)
-Charges normal when its off.
-Charging led stays on for about 15 to 30 secs after being disconnected.
Things I've tried:
-different pcs
-Many different chargers (same slow charging and battery led weirdness)
-Many diff USB cables (including my new Samsung cable that came with my nexus 10)
-Formating my PC.
-Flashing diff ROMs/kernels (currently cm10.1 w/ stock kernel)
-Factory reset.
-USB debuging (enabled/disabled)
-Download mode (USB not detected)
-Removing SD card.
-Booting with phone connected.
-Cleaning connector with a tooth brush(I think its still dirty)
-Kies USB troubleshooting
I also notice my battery is draining way faster. 100 to 0 in like 7-8hrs with like 1hr-2 onscreen time.
So I am officialy giving up, and will continue to use my phone and flash ROMs till it dies, but before I do I wanted to hear what XDA has to tell me.
Is my port damaged?? Any other ideas that might fix it?
Please help!
I have the same problem odin sees my phone in download mode or a camera but not as a phone. When it does connect I get a popup on my phone saying service pack 3 not found. Im reinstalling xp ill let you know if it works

Hi guys,
My GNex has a problem. Many users seem to have a similar problem but theirs seem to be hardware related and I'm pretty confident mine is software related.
It started a few months ago when my GNex wouldn't charge through the wall charger. I was on a trip with my friends so I didn't have access to a pc and wasn't able to troubleshoot further. The charging icon would appear when the phone was off but when I turned it on it didn't charge. I played around with the phone for about two hours, rebooting, Googling for solutions, changing the USB connection modes in the Storage settings. When I changed from Next Launcher to Stock launcher and rebooted everything was working fine again. However I think it was only a coincidence. Then the problem didn't occur again until now and this is why I think it's software related. If hardware would have been broken the problem wouldn't just have fixed itself like that.
It happened 3 days ago but somehow fixed itself again. I was troubleshooting the issue with my GNex connected to PC and installed Nexus Root Toolkit by Wugfresh. During install my phone rebooted on it's own and suddenly USB worked perfectly again!
However yesterday I forgot to charge and my GNex died. On reboot the issue was back.
"Symptoms":
Phone won't charge with any wall charger (and any cable) unless off
Phone will charge through USB in any mode but PC will not recognize it and install it as unknown device.
USB Debug Icon and Connection Mode notification do not appear in status bar upon PC connection
OTG doesn't work and apps like "Stickmount" do not detect external drives
Attempts:
Gently bending the "tongue" inside the micro usb on the phone in case there is a bad connection
Reinstalling drivers on PC
Rebooting device in different modes including fastboot
Using different batteries
NOTES
This problem started after latest 4.3 update. It has only occured after battery completely runs dry. I have 3 batteries (a bit excessive I know) and an external battery charger so charge is not the issue, I just really want to understand what's going on with my phone.
I'm not ready to Factory Reset or replace the USB port yet, those are last resort options to me. Any other options, especially software related, are very welcome. I am on stock 4.3 only rooted and with CWM recovery.
In Testing menu (type *#*#4636#*#* in Dialer) under Battery Settings my phone also says Charging (AC) when connected through USB. Hope this helps.
Been Googling around for two days now so I decided to make my own thread. Any help is appreciated. Sorry for this very long post.
Fixed it! Tried bending the tongue inside the micro usb again, forced much more this time, everything is working again, for the moment
So, I got back this weekend and realized that the data connection over USB cables stopped working, even in recovery(PhilZ) mode.
Last weekend it was working fine, and throughout the week it was kept turned off with no disturbances.
ADB doesn't detect the phone.
Power is supplied normally, so the phone still charges. Computer plays the USB detected sound when plugging in/out.
Tried different cables, different computer, and verified that while it works normally on my One m8, it does not on my HOX.
On SlimKat rom, stock kernel.
Any help, guys? I'm really hoping it's not a hardware problem.
Hello,
I have a Galaxy Note 10.1 2014 Edition (P605 3G+Wifi) that began to stop charging when the screen goes off. Yes, it's weird but not uncommon. All the topics I found (like this - https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2775833) are fixed by using the original Charger + Cable, which I already did. I even purchased from Samsung a new cable, just in case, with no luck. I also have opened the tablet and resettled all the connections (the vga flat cable and the battery connector). No luck either. :crying:
The only way I have to charge my Note is by installing an app that keeps the screen on while charge. Than it takes 10 hours to charge (with wifi, bluetooth, etc off, and brightness in the lowest) 100% but at least I can keep using my tablet.
EDIT: It also charges when turned off, but the charging speed is as slow as when on with the screen on. Only when on, I connect it to power, it starts charging, the screen goes off and, after a couple of seconds, screen comes on again and its not charging. Its like someone has pulled the charging cable.
I am tired of this and would like to have a definitive fix. If I buy a new battery, will it be fix? What is exactly the problem here? Reflash the ROM will it fix? Does any one knows?
Thanks for the help.
A full wipe and reinstall would likely fix your problem. I've been in this problem once, where the device charges under any condition, but it does so s l o w l y, no matter through what connection. Solved this by doing a NAND wipe through ODIN and re-installing all with that too.
What's your current ROM and bootloader? What kind of modifications have you done?
I'm running 5.1.1 stock rom with root only.
Will have to try that solution and reinstall all my stuff. Thanks.
Good news. Problem is solved.
So I wipe data... no luck, same problem. Download ROM and ODIN, entered in Download mode, connected the USB and... Nothing happened... only the tablet starting charging but the OS didn't detected anything. Tried other PC, same result. So the problem must be on the USB Port.
Checked this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZcwHd0wy0M
Opened the tablet and took off everything like shown there. Including USB Port, flat cable and battery. Reassembled eveything and... voila... problem solved.
Thanks.
