Damaged Sync Port Connector!

Hello everybody,
After a long time without having problems with my t-mobile dash, it has started to play up again! Now the problem is the Sync Port Connector, it does not charge and sync.(sometimes does, but I can not touch usb cable) It looks a bit loose. Does anyone expirience this kind of hardware problem?
skf
Yes
Yes, starting to act up, but using different usb cables has helped. I also intentionally slightly bent a cable's connector to make it less loose. Kinda helped.
Um try to call T mobile if you have them and ask for a new phone, say that its not reading the USB or something because technically its not you know.

Hardware Question - USB connector

Does anyone happen happen to know, specificly (ie. manufacturer, or distributor part number or model number) what USB connector the KF uses?
I just bought a used KF and the connector is failing. I have someone that can attach a new one for me but I haven't been able to figure out what connector to buy. Lots of searching and looking at pictures but i haven't been able identify it for certain. If I have to, I will pull the board and look at it but I thought I would ask first.
Thanks

I probably cant help you much but I use 2 different ones both non stock. one is for my droidx seems a little loose but it functions. The other is made by belkin standard usb to micro for media transfer this one is a little tight. when you say fail can you clarify that?
Thanks for your help. I am looking for the connector that is soldered to the motherboard inside the KF not a cable. When I plug a cable in the connection is very loose and I have to wiggle the cable a lot to make a connection and if I let go of the cable the connection fails. I have tried several cables, as well as, the wall charger, all with the same results so I am sure it is the connector on the motherboard. The cables work fine on my other devices.
Thanks again for your help.

its sound more like a loose fitting cable than the connection point itself I wouldnt know how to go about replacing the device end. Possibly might require a new motherboard to do so unless your pretty crafty. Wish I could be more help to you.
The belkin brand is much tighter fit I purchased it at target 16$

Have you tried other USB cables? I have the same problem with my stock USB cable too and thought there might be something wrong with my phone, but then I tried a different USB cable and it held on well.

This was my experience as well. Try other cables before you swap out your phone! :good:
The same with my cable. I guess they did it on purpose, that whenever your phone is 'tugged' the usb cable will be released instead of your movement being violently restricted by the force of the cable, which may cause you to drop your phone.
Any way, i bought a 3rd party flat USB cable which length exceeds 3 - 4 times the original cable , and it fits tightly in my phone's USB port. So i believe it is cable related.
I have the same problem, I guess it's just the one they sent. Oh well.
I did buy another cable, however I noticed that charging becomes extremely slow with it. I'm hoping to be able to find a better one that can support the higher charge needed for the phone, in the meantime I'll be leaving the phone down while charging I guess.

+1 same thing for me too. I was so worried thought it was a problem with the charging port but it seems the problem is with the charger cable. Using other cable is no issues.
Obviously it pops out very easy. I'm on my 3rd Samsung Micro USB cable, all are same.
But then I've tried my friends Galaxy Ace cable and it was fine. So you just buy a different Micro USB cable which will have same 2A output like stock one.

I. too, was worried when i first got the fone.... but it's the stock cable... tried another cable from another brand/manufacturer and it fits perfect.
I seem to be quite lucky. My stock cable fits nice and snug. I can even dangle the phone upside down holding only the cable and it wont come out unless I swing it or tug it harder lol
If you compare the stock cable with other cables you'll see that the plug on the stock cable is usually shorter than other cables by a millimetre or 2 so the little prongs on the plug probably arent grabbing onto the slots of the phone
Mine 2. I just stick blue tack on it

Yup, same here. I find the cable that came with my wife's Kindle is the best fit - needs a real pull to detach it!

Tiny USB Cable

So I had installed a 2012 Nexus 7 in my car dash. That went relatively easy since you could just move the ribbon cable for the charge port and plug almost any cable into it. I have it apart and decided to upgrade to the 2013 version. The problem is the screen is attached to the same board the Micro usb port is soldered to and I have almost no room on the side of the tablet. It being a Hair taller is killing me. Does anyone know where I can get a very low profile micro usb cable? Something similar to what is attached to this charger. Need it to have data as well. Or if anyone has any ideas on what could be done I'd like to hear.

I want to use 90 ° micro usb cable, that would not fit?
An Idea
The board with the micro USB can easily be removed with a small screwdriver so it would just hang behind the nexus inside the car. That's no good if you plan on using the nexus like a regular tablet.

[Q] Lg g2 Dock jack usb flex cable Question...

Hi guys.
I have an situation here and would like to hear if any1 have any knowledge about it.
My LS980 has an bad Dock USB Jack flex cable. I know because i had another G2 to test it and this is
100% the problem. Now that i need to buy another flex cable i also need to know if the D802 GLOBAL
version of this cable will work on my LS980 version, this is because i also have an bad glass digitizer
and i have here an D802 Glass digitizer. The only difference that i can notice is the up side connector
of the digitizer like the pictures.
If anyone know if i can buy the D802 Flex Dock USB cable and make it work on my LS980 i will be
glad to hear about.
Thanks!
