Why cant i get any USB connection to my phone? - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So i recently ordered a new Usb Charging Port & Mic (Microphone) Flex Cable from china for my nexus 4 because the usb function was not working, it doesn't even get recognized on the computer, tried several computers/cables still no usb connection ( even in fastboot). i replaced it yesterday and i still get zero connection to any computer trough the usb cables, what could have gone wrong in my phone for this to happen?

My phone is formated, no /system or /data. USB not working in fastboot or recovery (adb sideload)

In the beginning I had the same problem. I solved with samsung usb driver. I upload it if you want. But look at this tutorial first.

Are you using the cable that came with the phone, use usb 2.0 ports, not 3.0. And try different usb ports, the ones on the back of the pc not the front. That's all I can think of

What I have tried:
Using 3 different cables, all works with other phones.
Using other computers both Windows and Mac.
Tried both Fastboot mode and adb sideload in recovery
Replaced the whole usb flex cable inside the phone
Installing a bunch of drivers adb/usb
still nothing, no connection whatsoever even with the BRAND NEW usb flex cable

myTouch 3G will not connect to pc other than for charging

I bought a used MyTouch 3G with the 3.5mm jack. Everything seems to work, except for connecting to either of my windows 7 pc's. I have the oem usb cable that came with the phone. When I plug it in, Windows says the usb device is not recognized and is malfunctioning. I attempted to install the drivers that come with pdanet to no avail. I also installed htc sync. When I plug the phone into my computer, it starts charging, but the taskbar message on the phone does not show it as connected to a pc.
Any ideas here?
try another usb cord?

Try to install the USB drivers that come with the Android SDK?
(I don't think you need the HTC sync stuff for that).
Depending on what ROM you are running, or if it was made by some paranoid network provider, you might not be able to use the phone as a modem (tethering)... I've heard that some network providers disable the tethering feature...
With CM ROM, I've had no problems tethering over USB in: Windows Vista, Windows 7, Ubuntu 10.4 (Windows XP didn't work at all).
You have to enable the tethering feature first on the phone before it will work (I'm not talking about installing some app from the market, I'm talking about the built-in setting: settings-->wireless&networks-->tethering).
Have you tried mounting your SD card to access it as storage device over USB?
If neither tethering or USB mount wants to pick up when you plug the cable in, I'm guessing your cable is bust or your phone...
Have you tried the same cable on another PC?
Are you using some dodgy USB add-in card or USB hub on your PC? Did Windows 7 install the correct drivers for your USB controller on your motherboard? (do any other USB devices work on your PC?)
same problem HTC my touch 3g
I have a google tmobile htc my touch 3g 32B 2.2.1 android and under vista i have a load of usb problems device not recognized. have tried many many things still nothing works. called htc they told me to call ms. perhaps some conflict with the device. problem rooting it with sapping and gold card method and sapping as well. any suggestions?
Maybe you have a corrupted misc partition :0|
just restart your phone... it will surely work

Your first link seems to be messed up, but I have followed this step previously multiple times. I will try this again though because Motorola just released an update. Hopefully it will help me get this working correctly.

Restart phone and PC
Try different USB cable / port
Try different computer
Download latest Google USB Driver and try to update the driver with the error (which resulted in "your driver is up-to-date message")
Connect the phone in recovery mode and bootloader mode
Connect the phone in recovery mode with MTP enabled (via TWRP recovery)
My PC is running Windows 10.
Please help me out!

No.
Currently, helplessly, I'm transferring the photos etc. from my device via adb over network, which does work as a matter of fact. But via USB - nothing =\

You could try connecting it to another computer, if you have access to one. That way we can find out if it is a phone problem or computer problem.

[Q]PC cannot identify Nexus 7, no driver? Charging when USB is connected

I recently bought a Nexus 7 (2012 - WiFi Version) on eB*y, the Device is Rooted, ROM is CyanogenMod-NIGHTLY-Grouper.
When i tryed to connect the Nexus 7 with my Laptop and PC it started to charge (but verry, verry slow) and i Windows says that the USB device cannot be identified (also i cannot install drivers for it becaus it cannot be identified) Fail-Code is: 43. I tryed it on Win7 Desktop PC and on a Win10 Laptop but no chance.
Also i tryed to install a Factory ROM via Recovery Mode (from SD Card) it says: Installation aborted.
I really dont know what to do now? I think it is the USB Flex Cable, what do you guys think?
Sorry for my bad English.
Hope someone can help me here.
On your Nexus 7, search for a setting called USB connections and ensure MTP is checked.
On your windows PC, Control Panel > Device Manager, go to your broken Nexus device, right click and update the driver for it... Select you want to install the driver yourself. Then it will ask you to browse to the driver, but underneath that you will have another selection along the lines, "select from common driver list". From there, look under portable devices and select either MTP Storage or MTP USB Storage. I had the same problem and only MTP USB Storage works for me.
For ADB and Fastboot stuff... Search these forums.
Hope that helps.

Don't forget to try other USB cables.
Just use the Nexus Root Toolkit and follow the easy wizard to completely setup the N7 on your PC:

USB Debugging can't be used on my Mi A1

Hello people, I've a weird problem on my device.
Yesterday everything was ok. I've enabled USB debugging and I've used "adb" from terminal without issues.
Today, I can't connect with adb anymore.
If I use adb devices I can't see my device. If I try to Enable USB Debugging on my device, for a very short moment (about 2 seconds) I can see my device connected, then it disconnects.
I noticed this:
{
"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
That icon appears for 2 seconds after I disable and re-enable USB debugging, then it disappears (of course the notification for USB connection appears for 2 seconds then disappears).
I've tried everything:
different cables
different PC and Mac
I've removed adb_keys from /data/misc/adb
I've removed adb kesy from .android folder on my PC/Mac
I've revoked USB authorisation
Nothing.
Is there a saint can help me fix this?
I don't want to hard reset device again.
Thanks,
ghale
PS: I don't know if it's important, but in Fastboot mode, I can list device with fastboot devices command.

How you remove or uninstall ADB Driver
Well, on Mac it's very simple, just download new adb and fastboot from Android developer portal and replace old ones.
No drivers needed. On pc is a bit different.
Same problem with Mi6. Did u fix it?
Did you install Cerberus?
