Hello
I had a problem in charging port for my galaxy S3 i9300, and I take it to a store who repare it and it's charging now, but the problem now is transfering data cause my PC is not detactable at all, I've changed many software, cables and PC ports but there's no indication in my phone ( USB icon) which means it's a hardware issue in my phone.
My question is how I can test it I mean which pins must I test cause the phone connector has 11 pins? I can't take it again to repare cause I'm still using it.
Thanks a lot

Hello,
I think you are facing USB damage with your devise, because many mobile has safe removal and insertion slot. And as per my assumption it only happens because of slot damage...
Change the whole module

Throw the cables and buy new one. Some of the USB cables are not proper wired and wires are in bad quality.

Well that has happened for me, but since yesterday im not being able to transfer data even with de original usb cable. has this happened to anyone else?
There are some cables that are charge only. Can you post a link.
GALAXY NOTE
I'm using the original cable that came with the note but somehow only charges! it doesn't even do that usb sound when plugged, tried restarting the phone and KIES doesn't detect it either..
This is happening after yesterday the phone started saying it was having a charging/unplug LOOP (constantly vibrating) even with the cable off. this was fixed removing the battery :/
Edit 1#
i am also being unable to plug the phone via mass storage usb, it asks me to plug the usb cable and then nothing..
Edit 2#
So i confirm it's now fixed, i tried to unplug again the battery and also cleaned the usb connector of the phone with a toothbrush.. one of those fixed the problem. now I'm just crossing fingers it won't happen again :/
Hello everyone, this is my first post and it´s about my Defy, which, for some reason, the USB port does not work to access the phone and/or the SD Card.
1: I did a soft and hard reset and the problem persists.
2: The phone does not show up on the device manager under Windows so not even an error message saying "Device not recognized" or something. Also, it won´t show up in Ubuntu.
3. The "Connect your charger" message shows up all the time.
4. No notification in the phone when plugged to the PC .
5. Even though I can´t access the phone from the PC, I still can´t charge it through the USB port.
6. I can connect/access the phone and SD Card using Wi-Fi (Motorola Phone Portal) but not USB. I can see "Plug in USB to launch" in Phone Portal but cannot press the button, only the one referring to Wi-Fi.
PS: This is my second Defy, the first one got the same problem so I got a new one... sadly, the it happened again.
PS2: I wonder if a USB 3.0 port has to do with anything? It´s the only thing that I noticed before the USB stopped working.
Any help or hint is greatly appreciated.
well, i don't think it's an usb3 problem ...
to be sure you could try to connect your phone with an older usb2 port computer ...
is the phone charging on wall charger and usb-cable ???
if not, it really sounds like a hardware failure ... then i would send it to customer service and tell them that there is the same problem again .. maybe the just repaired something and it's faulty again ... be sure, that they are changing the faulty things ...
if your phone is charging on wall charger, it could be that it is an problem with your pc ... try another one ...

1. I mentioned the USB 3.0 port because it was the only common thing just before the usb conection stopped working.
2. The phone charges normally using the wall charger or usb (2.0, 3.0) cable through the PC.
3. It does not matter what PC is connected to or the OS (Ubuntu, Win7)/
Thanks for the response!
It is possible to brick it. Wtih some phone's it seems to be a common error for usb ports to be blown.
Could also be the cable... My cable that came with the defy was already snatched after a few months. My screen started going on and of when I was charging it.

Is there a way to check for faulty hardware-related issues?
just test different cables, computers or even mobiles ... then you will see, what is faulty

What I meant was some software that check or even some kind of physical device.
Anyway, I know it´s not the cable or PC faulty but the phone itself. But I want to confirm if it´s software or hardware related and if there´s a fix.
Thanks!
Try using USB with logcat open. You might see something in the log that will tell you what's happening

Hi, I have a little problem and I wonder if somebody can help me.
When I connect my phone to the charger or to the pc with a samsung cable, like it's own cable, it charges with no problems.
The problem is that when I try to charge it with other cables it doesn't recognize the cable at all, like if the cable isn't plugged in.
Can somebody help me with this annoying problem?

Strange. Although Samsung supplies good quality cables, other vendor cables are also good. They can be easily available for 3-5$ or 200₹ problem which you are talking about comes in place when the cable is of the most degraded quality; or at least check the connections if they were loosened up!!

Unfortunately it isn't a cable problem, I tried the same cable with another s3 neo and it works perfectly, also I'm not sure it is a connector problem because other Samsung cables works too.
I'm stuck in this dilemma and I don't know what I have to do.

First impression is that, but it's strange because all Samsung cables works.I tried to clean off the port but nothing.

Hi
I seriously need your help. I can't copy files from pc to my sm-a9000 anymore. I did nothing like rom flashing or system modification yet. One day, the pc just don't recognise the phone, even in download mode. I tried differents pc, differents cables and ports...nothing. i tried *#0808#, drivers reinstallation, nothing... when i connect the phone, the pc display "unknown device code 43" and the phone just get charging. When i use an usb drive, the led just blinking and the phone don't notifies the connection. I use the hong kong 6.0.1 stock rom TGY a9000zhu1bpi3 an it's not rooted
Seems like you have a hardware failure. It may just be the USB port itself has some bad connections to the PCB.
I have repaired several USB ports due to issues like this, but it's very difficult if it's soldered to the PCB.
If it's modular like many are nowadays it's a simple matter of swapping the usb port out.

I've had my S8 for about 8 months now, pretty happy with the phone. Let me preface this and say I was with Verizon when I got this phone, a few months ago I decided to cut ties and go with Straight Talk as the service was less expensive. Over the last few weeks I have had trouble with the USB mass storage and OTG adapter not working at all, I am using the OEM pieces that came the phone. I go to plug in the cable or the OTG and my phone starts doing the USB connect/disconnect notification. At this point I am thinking of calling Samsung to see if I can get the port repaired under warranty, I think its weird that the OTG and cable are not working to transfer files or connect devices other than the charger. I have reset the settings on the phone, installed Samsung's mobile device driver on my pc (WIN 7 Ultimate x64) , no luck. Anybody run into this issue?
try another pc or get charging port repaired if it ain't charging properly

Called Samsung, they are having me take it to a UBreakiFix place for their technicians to look at it. They think it could be corrupt software or damaged charging port. It's still under warranty so hopefully they can fix it without having to refurb the phone.
Got it fixed, replaced the port. Phone had a small corner crack in the screen they said Samsung wouldn't warranty the port. Gonna call them about that.
