[Q]Error on my Diamonds USB slot? - Touch Diamond, MDA Compact IV General

Hi!
I've searched and fund some stuff similar to my problem but no solution, so I'm trying again.
The problem started when I updated to ROM v 1.93.
Whenever I connect my device to the PC (I'm running Vista) through USB connection I get the quistion on my phone if I wanna use it in Active Sync mode or as a disk. So far so good. No matter which alternative I choose i takes only a few seconds for me to get the same dialogue on my phone again and again and again and I cannot acces the phone from my PC.
My first thought was that the usb slot in the phone must be broken but I can charge the phone if I plug inte wall but not via the PC.
Is this a software prob. or something else and can this be fixed or do I have the go back to the store with the phone?
I would really appreciate some creative answers to this.

Do you have any other miniUSB cables to test with? That would be my first move.

Disconnect device and delete the partnership between PC and Diamond. Try reconnecting. If no joy, delete partnership and delete Windows Mobile Adapter from Device Manager.

One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctioned

WTH?!?!?! A few days ago I had a problem with AS 4.5, which I managed to solve, and now this??? Why does bad stuff happen to me anyway?
I don't know the cause of this problem. When I plugged my XDA II this message pops up. =(
I tried Hard Resetting and Reinstalling AS 4.5 but it didn't work (GRRRR)
I'm guessing a driver error/corruption within my PC. Any suggestions??
(I haven't tried connecting my PPC with another PC, YET)
had same prob
just copy the serialusbfn.dll into your windows dir on ppc and all is sorted
the solution you have there is something I already posted. (refers to thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=1646178#post1646178)
this is an entirely different problem =(
thanks for trying to help though =D
very simple..happens with me alot of times...just soft reset ur ppc or restart ur PC..and voila it works..also make sure its connected directly to ur pc's usb port
i did that many times and still it fails to work.. I reset both my PPC and my PC.. =(
and by directly, do u mean directly as in without a cradle? or directly without using USB splitters, extension, etc...
if the latter, I don't have USB extension cords etc...
if the former, I connect it via a cradle.
hm..i use a USB cable..so i cant really tell
Maybe your pocket pc 's bottom connector is broken. Have you tried using "WM5Storage" and putting your XDA II on its craddle to see if it gets connected as a usb mass storage device ? If it doesn't, you should maybe look if the connector is still soldered to the main board. Mine isn't anymore, and my XDA II can only charge.
Yeah nathrinder could be right..caz mine was also broken *just remebered after reading nathrinders post
I'm also thinking of the possibility that either the bottom connector or the cradle is broken, but I really can't conclude yet until I try connecting this thing to another PC and see if it works.
May I ask what is that WM5Storage?
THANK YOU!
Wm5torage is a software which makes ur ppc a card reader and when u insert a card in the device..it gets detected in ur Computer.....its just like Softkick II or sum thing like that.....search around the forum for it

Hi
First of all try to reinstall Microsoft ActiveSync, than in the ActiveSync options, in your device, be sure that in "Connections..." setting "Synchronize all PC by this connection" is checked and below "USB" showed!
Otherwise, if your device, when connected to the PC, also doesn't charge (if you have this option enebled on your PDA!) there is some problem on your PC settings concerning the USB! Try to connect to someother PC to test it!
Ciao
thx...

hello there, first n foremost thanks for your input!
Before trying out your possible solution i tried to connect and for some reason i was able to connect via the device today...??!!
i really dont know why, but will try your soln if this situation reocurrs.
NB: this happenned to me twice in the last 3-4 months, n i never figured out the cause ??
any other advice or ideas gratefully accepted.;
its probably the same as me and loads of other people - the pins have bent on your usb connector - probably caused by using non standard chargers and usb leads. Its been widely reported. The non-standard leads have too much space around them when plugged in and wiggle causing the connector on the tytn II to bend. Try using the lead which came in the box and see if it helps. and try using the charger that came with it too.
Can bent pins be fixed?
Hello -- I'm one of those people with a non-recognition problem. Is it possible to fix the bent pins? My problem seems to have begun around the time I lost my original USB cable. Now, all the cables I have -- ones that have been specifically sold to work with my HTC Tilt -- have the symmetrical, sort-of-trapezoidal mini-usb connection, rather than the rectangle-with-one-corner-cut-off shape of the original cable. I should say these cables do charge my device, but none of my computers recognizes it as a USB device.
Help?
Thank you,
J. Georgia
bent pins continued
I should add that the charging cable that originally came with my phone has the same connector shape, so I'm not sure what's going on.
USB Device not recognised
This is known to happen at times win Windows, and not just for the TYTN2 but a myriad of devices.
The fastest fix for this:
Reboot ur PC/ Laptop.
If this Doesn't help - Then add in a reboot for the TYTN 2 also.
The problem will go away for some time.
I know its annoying, but this is way faster than troubleshooting for contacting MicroShaft Support.

Unfortunately this is no soution for me. I seem to have this problem as well, since about two weeks.
I use two notebooks (Dell & Acer) and both do not show any activity when connecting my Kaiser to the original USB cable. The device is not even switched on when I connect it, nor does this happen when I connect it to the (original) cable in my car, which did work before.
Charging works fine, both in the car and when connected to both notebooks, but no Sync at all.
I have tried another USB-cable with the same result, so I suspect some hardware-problem causing me to be unable to copy files between my notebook and my phone and worse, rendering me unable to flash a new ROM onto it.
Who knows what to do next?
I am mystified, too. USB Charging and audio connections work. I have rebooted my computer and done a soft reset on my phone several times, to no effect. I uninstalled and reinstalled Windows Mobile Device Center. Still nothing at all via USB. Once, yesterday, I somehow got a Bluetooth connection long enough to sync, but haven't been able to since then. Even then, Windows Media and AudibleManager couldn't see the phone. The really weird thing is, I can see the phone connection in my Bluetooth manager, but even with all the proper boxes checked, I can't sync. When I try from my device, I get an empty progress box which disappears after a fraction of a second. When I try from my computer, it says the device is not connected, but doesn't give me any option to connect.
Would a hard reset help?
If so, would returning an unlocked AT&T Tilt to factory defaults lock it back up? And what do I do if it does?
Please help!
J. Georgia
I have had similar problems with my touch pro in the past, even bluetooth internet sharing eventually gave up the ghost.
I tried a myriad of leads and then eventually reinstalled active sync- which did the trick.

I've had the same problem with my first Tilt. There's multiple threads that detail this known problem. Some seem to be due to bent pins, some are general hardware failures (possibly the USB controller). There are some HardSPL images out there that have a "force usb" option enabled. This never worked for me, but it might be worth a shot for you.
...a word of warning....
If you end up reflashing your phone (via MicroSD) and the flash goes bad, you may be stuck, as many of the solutions for repairing a bad flash require you to USB sync. My first Tilt was a victim of this after a bad stock ROM flash that left my device without audio, and unable to flash via MicroSD.
replace usb board
you need to replace your usb board. It will run you less than $10 if you do it yourself. you can get the board on ebay
really? 4 years later?

Help! My computer won't recognize my phone

I'm running windows 7 x64, and Cyanogen's 3.9.7 and suddenly my computer stopped recognizing my phone, it didn't replace the driver with something else, when I plug my phone in it doesn't even communicate with the computer. There is no drop down to mount, and the computer doesn't even see it as being a connected device, I've tried USBDeview and it doesn't show up as being connected at all. I have no idea what to do. Help would be great.
Does it appear in Device Manager?

Nope, not at all.
Tried it with more then one usb cable? One of my cables went bad not too long ago... Also could try different usb port. If all else fails.. try it on the different computer just to rule out hardware issues. If it does not register on different PC then you may need to exchange you device...
Good luck

[Q] Galaxy Note wont connect to pc

Hello forum !
i have used a couple of hours now trying to find a solution to my problem both here on the site but also on the internets.
i just recently became the happy owner of a Note, but i have been completely unable to connect it to any of my pc's ive had a galaxy i9000 that i didnt have any problems with but with my note it wont work.
under win7 64bit - when i plug the usb cable a "boc opens" in the drop down menu called MTP and when i klick that nothing happens, ive trid the varies ways of removing the sd card unmounting it etc. and debugging and so on but wont work.
it randomly connected once but then it dissapeared from my computer.
under winXP 32bit it just says usb device not recognised, i really wanna root this thing so i can play with the true power of this amazing device.
and on both pc's ive tried with kies and driver packs both together and seperately.
anyone out there that can help me out with this problem ?
cheers
and happy new year

Before connecting it to the PC with the cable, click "connect storage to pc" in the USB settings. After clicking it, then it will ask you to connect to pc. If you connect to pc before clicking it will not connect.

Hello i have done that but the same happens ive done it like it says i should i just dont get why my pc wont recognise it , when i press it and then it waits for me to plug it in, i do that the dialogue box shuts and then nothing happens besides windows saying unrecognised device connected
Strange, Mine connect fine just like how marinervijay mentioned. Go to Settings > Wireless> Usb Utilities and press connect first and then insert your USB, then press connect USB. Voila. There should be a window prompting to open in your windows just like when u insert a flashdrive to ur computer.
iknow its supposed to work like that.
the problem is that it doesnt work :/
Okay, have u tried resetting your Note to factory default?
no i havent tried that, because its all new it didnt work since i got it, i never thought that that might help, ill give it a go.
thx
On another, you might have a defective USB given to you by ur retailer. Perhaps you can contact them somehow and ask them to replace your USB?
do you mean the USB cable delivered with the phone ?
Cheers
Yes. Could be a defect. I'd suggest you check with your retailer if it is replaceable if none of what mentioned is working for you.
Hi,
Have you ticked USB debugging? Its under Settings>Apps>Development
Then it should show usb connection in notification tab, tap it and set usb storage as on.
There may be few problems here so I will suggest different solutions, one might work for you
1. Turn off your antivirus and connect, it should work, see after connecting mobile that does it install something near "Bottom clock"?, open "my computer" see if it gives you N7000 (give it a minute). sometimes your computer settings are a problem
2. If no, Install latest Kies on your computer as it downloads Samsung drivers for your phone
3. after connecting 1st time, computer takes some time to recognize your mobile--be patient--
4. if all of above doesnot work, restart computer, connect USB to another (or same) port (turn off antivirus) and see
5. Nothing, try in Setting>Applications>Development>debugging Mode
6. if not, try on another computer
7. still does not connect, change USB cable
8. Still nothing there might be a issue with your device, but I will not conceive that every quickly, trying all above few times should resolve the issue..
7.

Okey ive tried them all now, more then a few times most of these ive tried already and the antivirus isnt an issue as i dont have any on this pc. i think the problem either lays at the usb cable or the device itself. i will try and get to borrow a cable from a friend or something

USb Problem
Hi I've had the same problem.
I have been using the Note quite happily as a Mass USB storage since early December. Plugged it in this morning and I don't get anything. I have also tried the debugging and all the other things listed. Here's what I get:
Usb debugging on - just a sound and a charging indication
Usb debugging off -usb connected Mtp connected on the notification pull down page. When I click on notification it just shuts the window.
I have tried dialling *#7284# and selecting USB PDA which didin't do anything for me but others seem to have had some luck. See this link:
blog.vacs.fr/index.php?post/2010/12/24/How-to-repair-the-USB-not-detected-problem-on-Android-Samsung-phones
I will be rebooting tonight but I don't really want to.
only the Samsung USB wire works
I had this problem today. The Note would never connect the USB or external storage. I searched and found this thread.
I then noticed it was another USB cable (I gave about 1,000 now!). I tried the Samsung one, and it worked first time.
It is annoying, because these cables are normally swappable with any device. It appears Samsung have defined their own standard. The great thing about standards, of course, is that there are some many to choose from!
USB cable was defect - and replaced
Thanks for the help everyone

usb connection problem

hey guys i have a usb connection problem with my galaxy note.. whenever i connect my phone to my pc the usb connection icon doesnt appear neither any message shows up on the pc, the only thing it does is charge the phone , i even used differnt usb , tried reflashing the rom , thoough im using a custom rom , but no success, but there is one thing when i phone is connected to the pc and during that interval i restart the phone a message appears on the pc at the boot screen ...unrecocnized device connected, as soon as phone proceeds it too disappears.....if you guys know anything about this kindly help me out.....i have to pull my sd card every time i need to put something in my phone
It's possibly due to condensation on micro USB port of your mobile. Try cleaning it with rubbing alcohol and keeping your phone under the sun or in dehumidifier.

abhjit could be right but if you check on all custom rom threads people are having problems with usb connection
the latest ics releases of samsung ( even JB i believe, not sure tho ) have this problem plus full root problem,
Remove driver in windows then use usb it should auto load correct driver

Just clean it as is. You might be able to see the problem, but you will need a good magnifying glass or loop to see it.
I took some photos I found on the web of a dirty port and colored in the contamination I found on mine.

I have the exact same problem. My device doesn't get recognised by windows 7. It doesn't ask me if I want to use the phone as a pendrive. When plugged in, it only charges the phone. Sometimes the phone does not even realise that it has been plugged in at all. I dont think that its a problem with the pins because I have tried using an OTG and been able to connect to an external hard drive and copy files. Also I have been able to use PC Odin and flash a stock rom using a usb cable. This makes me think that all the pins are fine, and that its a software problem. Something has got glitched and not getting un-glitched lol!
Current Rom is the here

one thing you can try.. is to completely uninstall KIES off and remove all samsung usb drivers off your computer. When I say completely uninstall Kies, I mean totally removing it, from your system registry files and including Samsung folders that you can find in Program files or in program files x86..
After that, restart your computer and reinstall Kies and/or all samsung adb /usb drivers again.
Don't forget as well to plug your usb cable at the back of your PC since mostly USB ports coming from the back of it has strong usb signals than the ones at the front.
Hope this helps.
Don't forget to hit me up a 'Thank' if I've helped you some way or the other.
Cheers!

isolate the issue first...get another usb cable, and if you have another computer (aside from the one your normally using at), try to plug your phone on that computer and see if that pc will detect your phone.
If not still, then that's the time you can already consider that your phone might be the one having the issue.

Well I guess, that would prove the point that it could be your phone that might be having the issue bud. After all, you tried different options already but still came up with the same issue.
I'd suggest you may need to take your phone to SSC and have them check it.
thank you all for your support friends ...i have been able to repair it...i opened the cell phone thoroughly cleaned the usb module and reattached the connection cables after detaching and voila...thank God... :laugh:
