ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted September 25, 2011 Hi all, After ages, I've stumbled upon a problem that's kinda bugging me to the core. Normally a day's search on google - and ask guru mode normally helps - but this time it has not - so looking for ideas and suggestions. When I connect my epic to a computer using USB cable, on the phone I get "Charging", " Mass Storage" or "Tether" options - and the phone gets on charging automatically. If I choose tether or Mass storage - NOTHING happens on the computer. I've checked the device manager - no new devices found, none under ports, modems, USB devices - NO new devices at all! I've even checked for hidden devices. Then I tried connecting another micro USB cable - again nothing detected. Tried using a different computer, (I have a cyber cafe .. so tried on WinXP, win 2k, win 7, linux (ubuntu and jolicloud) - with different micro USB cables too ... no luck anywhere! btw a spare HTC incredible lying around works fine with BOTH the microUSB's - and well! The phone is not even detected when I turn off, press 1 and the power button to put in the download mode (0din). I've practically tried everything possible - except changing the microUSB slot on the phone (which I doubt is the concern since it charges fine). Any ideas or suggestions what could be the reason (to complicate matters worse, I have an HTC wildfire with exactly the same symptoms! ) PS : If i choose Mass Storage, the phone shows - connecting ... then connected. But the computer somehow decides to ignore the phone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted September 25, 2011 gimme the file ... can try (though I doubt it will help since even in download mode (1+power) for 0Din when the android OS is not even booted into - the phone is not detected. Currently on SyndicateROM frozen with Genocide voodoo kernel android : 2.2.1 on baseband EC05 Can't upgrade Baseband since 0Din can't communicate with the phone Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mfaiz2 27 Report post Posted September 25, 2011 k. Did you try in ms toggle mode in recovery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted September 25, 2011 recovery is 3.1.0.1 - u talking about mounts there ? no options to toggle anything here mate Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mfaiz2 27 Report post Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) not about mounts. In recovery there should be an option to connect the phone to pc. In some recoveries its called usb toggle mode. m sorry m not having fascinate so not much idea about your recovery. Its there even in clockworkmod. If it gets connected in recovery then problem may with rom files and psc.apk might help otherwise no clue buddy. Edited September 25, 2011 by mfaiz2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mufaddal 678 Report post Posted September 26, 2011 I dont think its the cable ....don't know why we blame cable This is how I check for bad USB -connect phone to PC ...if you hear a ding sound then USB is OK - if you don't hear ding sound then phone USB is culprit Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Harshal 11 Report post Posted September 26, 2011 I face a non detection problem, actually partial detection problem, on my Win 7 32 bit. The detection rate is much higher on my Win 7 64 bit. Though I am never confident that the PC will detect, lots of struggle to get USB working. Surely it is a Samsung problem, which they ought to fix. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashoksoft 83 Report post Posted September 26, 2011 Not an usb issue since no "ding" hehehe... most likely a phone issue. I'm thinking of taking it to a place dr.

Honest 836 Report post Posted September 27, 2011 Hmmm......Ashok Bhai....you can hear DING sound when you connect the cable.....but can you hear the DONG sound when you pull out the cable ? Woh kya hai na bhai proper DING DONGhone ka jaroori hai. Lolz.... J/k. It surely seems to be an issue with micro Usb pins on your handset. Toh bhai Manish Market jaker kya faydaa ?
