Zenfone 5 t00j charging, but is not recognized by the computer - Zenfone 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all, I have bought a second hand t00j however it seems that when i connect it to the computer via usb, it is not listed anywhere, but it is still charging. I tried different USB ports. I have tried with one windows and one linux computer. The phone is in MTP mode, I have the latest intel drivers. It is not showing up in the devices tab on windows. I tried enabling usb debugging. I opened the phone to make sure the connector ribbons between the usb board, the sim card and the mombo are connected properly. Please help.

USB device is not recognized error.

Hi all,
I'm experiencing the above problem. It started last week when I tried to reflash the firmware to a third party firmware. The unit could power up as normal, wifi, bluetooth all working fine but not the USB. I've tried installing a utility which switches the mode from RNDIS to USB but it still failed .. hard resetting the device does not help either. Is there a way that I could revive the USB connection? I couldn't sync my contact etc at the moment with my PC.
BTW, currently I'm on Onyx Jr. 4.1.2. I could not update to any firmware due to this and I don't have microSD to SD converter which I could use to copy the firmware to the microSD.
TA.
Disconnect sync cable. Reconnect to different usb port on computer. Right click ActiveSync in taskbar. Click connections. Make sure "Allow USB connections" is checked. If above fails, uninstall usb adapter in device manager, reboot computer. It'll reinstall with stock drivers after reboot.
It may happen due to faulty USB cable. Try and use another cable and on some other computer and check
I've tried all that I could think off including removing activesync and reinstalling it back. I've few miniUSB lying around and I've tested many of them but my notebook just did not want to recognized the htc touch. I've tried using those cables with my wife's tytnII and they worked .. could it be the hardware problem inside htc touch itself?
Tried with a new USB cable found in my newly bought GPS and if I reseat the cable properly, my notebook could recognised the htc touch. So I guess a new cable does help.. thanks all for the help.

Yes, another DRIVERS DONT WORK thread..

Hey guys, just got my Tab a few days ago, its unlocked and its working great. I want to root, but my PC wont recognize it (running win7) and it says the USB device has malfunctioned... wth? I searched through some threads about the drivers, and ive tried 4 different ones, restarted my PC, AND my Tab, with no luck. No, USB Debugging is not enabled. (not a noob, just, simply not working)
Any ideas? I would appreciate it
I just got my tab 3hours ago. I got it to work.
Here are what i've done
1.go to control panel and see if samsung usb driver is there. If it is, uninstall it.
2.disable usb debugging on the tab
3.connect the tab to the computer.
Thats wht worked for me. Hope it helps. And yes, samsung has really got to work on the usb thing.
Unzip and run the attached file. Delete any old unused USB device and delete any Android, Samsung or other related device then reinstall Samsung drivers.

This helped me: my computer tower has front and back USB ports. Back USB ports are directly embedded in the motherboard, front USB ports are a wire run from the case plugged into the motherboard, but the front USB ports are on a different chip.
When I first tried using the ADB debugger with Android, ADB would not even find my device if I plugged the device into the front USB ports. If I move the cord to the back USB ports, everything works properly. Maybe this is your issue?
Thanks guys, I believe I got it working.

Can't connect my viewpad 10s...unknown device problem

Ok...here is my story. I have a really big problem. I have the 10s(same is the advent vega) for about 3 weeks and i couldn't manage to connect it to my computer. I bought a male to male usb cable and when i plug in the tab and do the 2 sec back, 2 sec power thing my computer sees the tab as a unknown device. I tryed all the usb ports on my computer and nothing. I have xp but i tried on two other computers with win 7 and the same thing. I tried to update the driver from device manager ...tried to uninstall and search for new device and the same thing. I tried everything.... read all tutorials tried every usb driver... I ''broke '' my tablet and it won't boot now ...the backlight just starts and it turns off.So I need to connect my tab now badly.... so if someone could help....
Once more.....things i tried:
every usb port on comp
diffrent windows and computers
usb driver update
audi
vega tools
10000000 times to get in to the recovery mode (hoping that the comp would show the apx device)
I didn't get a usb cable with my device so i had to buy one..i found a male to male cable
So if anyone knows a way to help me with my unknown device problem... please do... i'm really sad that my tab is ''dead'' have it for a couple of weeks...
Do you have the device USB drivers?
I can send you the drivers and you can try to see if it works with your device , Not sure if it will fix the problem but you can try.
PM me your email and I will send you the file
same problem here, onluy "Unknown device".
Have the right drivers and tried to manuell select the drivers, but it won't work, see screenshot
I had the same issue, BUY ANOTHER CABLE, IF POSSIBLE DIFFERENT BRAND.
That solved my issue, believe it or not the cable was broken. This will work in case you have all the drivers and entered into recovery mode correctly.
Give it a try.
Hi!
I used to have the same problem with my Viewpad 10s whenever I came from stock version. What I found out was that the driver for advent vega must be a bit different from viewsonics.
Try to use the ones on viewsonics site and then try to flash...
...if not maybe its really a cable problem!
Cheers

Pc not detecting android but charging

Hi Basically plugged my S4 i9505 in via usb. Nothing shows in my computer, but phone remains charging. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling all samsung usb drivers but it does nothing. Tried installing kies/older usb drivers, still no luck. Regardless of if there are drivers or not on my pc, there is no detection what so ever. My pc is detecting my second S4 I9505 perfectly. Anyone know the solution to this?

Tap 5 times buildnumber in settings menu under: about phone to open developer settings. Enable USB debugging. Now you can choose what to do when phone is plugged in pc.

USB debugging is Enable still nothing happen
USB debugging is not required in order to have the phone recognized by the computer.
Have you tried different USB cables and USB ports? Is the phone detected on other computers?
i had the same problem.... and we found out that the pins or the usb connection sh1t from the phone doesn`t make good contact. si try to push a little but or force up and down the usb cable to the usb from phone maybe you will manage to find a stable connection or something.
when i connect to phone to the pc i have to hold the usb cable connected to the phone in a weird position. that works for me
