I need to replace htc kaiser (Kaiser 130 if this matter) usb but i dont know USB product code. Can someone post it here?
Thanks in advance!
If you mean the USB port on the bottom of the handset, it is part of the flex cable and cannot be bought separately. Flex cables are usually less than $100US.

Indeed it can be replaced. It's a part made by a Taiwanese connector manufacturer Acon (www.acon.com) and if you look on the service manual (accessible through links on the wiki) page 92 shows the connector as Con5 and part no MJE21-11K7P20. Good luck finding someone to supply it but your countries agents for Acon may be a place to start. There are also companies that offer a USB socket replacement service where they do all the work as well as supply the part. Search the USB port failure related threads here for details as their name escapes me.
i have been using my motorola razr charger on my tilt and now its loose and wont charge right, my oem tilt charger still works. anyone else experience this?
can someone post on how easy it was for them to replace the miniusb?
just need to solder it on..its quite easy
easy? for newbies is quite harder with no skills I sugest to you do not do this because you can brick your pda.

Hi,
I don't know where's re located, but many people in the US had very good experience with some companies specialised in PDA reparation. You may want to make a forum search for "broken usb" or similar.
can someone please post on their experience and where is the best place to get the USB connector for the att Tilt, possibly post a tutorial or youtube video on how to do it?
my solution!
hi from germany,
actually i had the same problem with the kaiser a few weeks ago and i searched the whole internet for the usb connector in order to replace my broken one. NO CHANCE!
I call HTC Germany and HTC USA and they were not able to tell me the specifications of the connector. One thing i can say for sure. HTC is NOT! using a standardized USB connector as it is built in other devices (nokia n95, motorola razr etc.).
My solution was: I ordere a display-damaged HTC Tytn 1 and gave it to an electrician who did his job well. He replaced my Kaiser USB connector.
Pretty annyoing, but it worked for me.
Much success to you1
my captivate cannot turn on at all
NO galaxy s, NO atnt screen, NOTHING
dead like without battery (but i am sure the battery is half full cos i tried it on another phone)
computer won't recognize it when usb plugged
cannot charge at all, no charging screen
SO NO download mode, NO recovery mode
tried all those remove sim, remove sd, remove battery, turn on odin first, connect to pc, having 3 buttons (actually all possible combinations) press, power button release, everything i could found on forum...
the only thing i didn't try yet is the 301k resistor
have a fd making that for me, will try that soon
but i doubt it will work since the situation looks very bad
so my question is...
has anyone with the EXACT symptoms, able to unbrick at last?
if u r those who able to unbrick becos ur captivate was still able to turn on
please don't reply, i really really appreciate ur help
but sorry urs wasn't really "brick"
and those solutions aren't what i looking for
if you want to know what i did...
all i did was trying to flash to Cognition v2.3b6 from a stock 2.1 following the wiki
i watched it formatting, copying files, ... , and then it try to reboot
but instead of successful reboot it stay dead forever
great...
tested even with the 301k resistor now
no luck
Yeah sorry man. Looks like you got a bad phone. Time to call att
i wish, but i didn't buy it from atnt
no receipt no shxx
and i am in canada
You know you still have the manufacturer's warranty. One year. Call Samsung and they will refurb it for ya. I got mine in Canada too. No receipt required as long as you have the original barcode on your box.

You're not holding onto the resistor with bare hands right?
I just get the same problem.
waiting for the solution too.
Have you tried a new battery?
This is my captivate. There are many like it but this one is mine.
your Phone most likely not bricked.
I Actually had this same problem. I really thought my phone was bricked. I would pull the battery and put it back in and nothing but a black screen. I ended up having to go into download mode from another computer. If you do this install drivers first and try to go into download by pushing both volume up and down at the same time then plug in usb cable to computer with odin opened up.

the 301k resistor tested on my gf "still" working captivate
it works
I end up took it to some cell repair shop to fix it
they said they had to replace a chip inside
and it cost me cad$150
anyway now it's fixed
but i think i am going to sell it since i don't have much faith in it anymore
i can't keep a phone that i can't flash it just becos it might never boot again
to those who have the same problem
GOOD LUCK
Doesn't it really work with the JIG?
If it doesn't work, I would not try.
If I just give the phone back to the ATT to fix it or change another one, how much should I pay?
thanks.

Hello everyone,
One day, I upgraded a ROM firmware (I don't remember which ROM exactly..) on my Captivate..
I formated everything before update (data, cache, AND system !).
During update I was making a coffee, and when I came back on the phone,
it was absolutely dead.. Only a full black screen.. Not detected on USB, just nothing.
After that, I tried everything that was possible (a lot of combo's, Odin3..)
Then, I bought a JIG, but still nothing, I tried with some different combo's (I can't remember which ones..)
Now, I would like to recover my Captivate! But.. how ?
If someone find the final good solution, I would like to donate via Paypal
Thanks, in advance!
Need more info. Which rom? Did you use 3 button fix? Have you tried adb? What about holding volume down while plugging in usb? Are you sure battery isn't just dead (dont laugh, its happened)?
If you did all that, its most likely a hard brick. There are developers here that offer JTAG service.
As I said, I don't remember the ROM. I was trying every new ROM, so, I really can't remember.. Sorry
About 3 button fix.. I don't know what it is exactly !? If it is vol down+up+Power, yes I did !
Nope, I did not try ADB.. I tried to find informations about this, but I cannot find! If you can help me about this, u'r' welcome !
Vol down does nothing..
I think my battery is still alive. Because when I plug my charger on it, it becomes a little warm after some hours, so I guess it's still alive..
I saw some JTAG infos, but I don't know what to do.. Do I need to send my Captivate to a JTAG's owner in USA !? It's like 40$ to send a secured shipping to USA..
Thanks for trying to help me!
If a jig will not turn it back on you may need the jtag. There are threads about it.

Is that possible to buy a JTAG ? I think I can't make one..
I made some searchs on eBay but I found nothing.
Thanks for helping
EDIT : I installed ADB on my computer, now I would like to connect it to my phone, but.. Don't know how!? What combo do I need to do, for my captivate be recognized by ADB ?
Thanks.

JTAG is not something you can buy on ebay. As mrhaley said, you need to send your phone to one of the developers who offer JTAG service. They will fix it and send it back to you.

Thank you guys for these answers.
* The problem is that I cannot send my Captivate to a JTAG's owner in USA,
because it's approximately 40$ fees to send it ! Then, with a return, it makes a total of 80$..
* Another problem is that I bought my captivate on eBay, and it's not under warranty..
* Maybe it remains the "ADB" solution (I never tried this), but I don't know how to connect my phone? because it stays turned off, then if I connect, I just get nothing..
Adb doesn't work unless you can get into the OS. You have a brick, jtag is your ONLY option of getting a working phone.

Ok, I understand, but .. How could i use a JTAG if I cannot send my Captivate to USA ? (too much expensive!). Thanks
It's either bricked forever or you pay for jtag. Those are your only options.

How are you at soldering? The captivate is one of the hardest phones to jtag, the solder points are smaller than the width of a dime, it would be really easy to fry the circuit board trying to jtag it yourself.

Do you think I can still sell my Captivate, for those who want to repair/fix or use parts? If I can, what kind of price? (my captivate is in perfect state, like new)
There's a user from XDA forums,Mcguyver1980. In one of his posts says he's in Belgium and can fix bricked phones. I don't know anything about this guy personally, but since you're about to scrap your phone I figured it wouldn't hurt for you to check if this guy is legit. Just make sure he understand it's a hard brick.

I bought my phone in december/january 2011.. But the seller did not say it was under warranty I received the original box .. So, do you think its under warranty ? But I guess postage is at my expense..
hey,
i was on slim bean, and wanted to flash a new ROM. So i switched on ODIN to go back to Stock JF6. During the process it got stuck at factoryfs.rfs. I closed ODIN, pulled out battery and tried the same process many times, always got stuck at factoryfs.rfs or sbl.bin
then, i tried going to Gingerbread 2.3.3 ODIN 1 click with bootloaders and kernel. again it kept getting stuck and after sometime, it stopped entering into download mode.
now, plugging it in doesnt show battery charging, the computer doesnt even detect new hardware (have tried on many pcs), no sign of life from my cappy.
have tried all sorts of button combos, etc
so is it like totally Bricked with no hopes of revival?
PS: since im in India, international shipping of the JIG costs a lot!!!

That's why there's a warning flashing bootloaders with Odin or Heimdall.. You never unplug/stop it. Your phone is most likely hard-bricked right now.
You only option would be to use mobiletechvideos .com services (JTAG).

Hmmm.. same goes here.. I'm from Bangalore.. you can order usb jig frm ebay india. Cost you 220 rupees.. I just ordered one for me. My phone also bricked, don't knw whtr it is soft or hard bricked. It's not turning on, my phone went dark green while flashing stock Rom, aftr that no signs of life. One mobile repair shop is available in Bangalore,, they can unbrick our hard bricked phones using JTag..

Here is the address: Cell tech communications, asuntha mansion, 2nd floor, 6th cross, vinayakanagar, adugodi,bangalore30. Their contact no: 9972477771. They said, they might charge in between 1000-1500 rupees, i bargained, they accepted to do it for 1000. I think this issue occurs cause of bad data cable, first i request you to try with another data cable, thn try with jig. if issue still persist, thn go for repair..
omg thanks bro, really really thanks

If you can build one, yes. Otherwise, it's probably not worth the crazy shipping cost to India. They're fairly easy to make though: 100k resistor x3 that you tape together. There is a guide in here if you wanna look into it.

Yeah, jig works on the samsung galaxy series. I bought one a year ago for my Captivate (S1) and it works on my S3.
Jig works for me I was able to flash stock ROM.. once you get your jig. Try to flash by connecting to another usb port. Coz same issue occurs for me by flashing using same usb port which I used last time.. after connecting the data cable to another usb port, everything went off smoothly. Yes galaxy s2 jig works for all sgs series phones., i wasted whole day on this. Bt I'm happy coz my issue resolved..

and hey, when your phone was bricked, could u see any signs of life, like atleast did the battery charging icon appear? cause for me its plain dead. no battery charging icon, no detection by computer, everyday after office i spend 1-2 hours going over the same process, of getting into download mode and phone shows absolutely no signs of life...
No signs of life.. mine was dead like yours bro.. I vl send you the ebay link2moro Mrng. Give me your contact number.. I vl give you a cal..
hey, i pm'd you my number...your number is incorrect man, its 9 digit , 1 digit missing
Reporting Back:
Got the jig today, Alas my phone didnt get into download mode, i thought maybe the battery has run out, got that checked and it was still doing 75%, tried all sorts of key combos along with the JIG also, lol, did everything. The phone just refuses to show any signs of life. Connecting to PC doesnt show new hardware attached. Nothing. So i guess its gone forever now, unless i find someone who does JTAG in India :'(
This is going to be a long story.
Had my note with me for about 3 years now.. Was waiting for the warranty to expire before I rooted it but I just never got to it.. So I was on Stock ROM and kernel all this time.
So last Friday (3 days back) was its doomsday.. had just replied to a text message, locked the phone and that was the last time I saw it working :crying:
It had switched off and when I tried to switch it back on it was stuck in bootloop, on the 'samsung galaxy note n7000' screen to be precise.. did some googling, came to xda forums, got that I need to get me recovery.. Vol Up + Home + Power.. nothing.. it just restarted and bought me to the boot note n7000 screen.. searched this now on xda,. got that I need to check if I have the download mode.. Vol Down + Home + Power and voila its alive, I had the download option.
Now from various threads I got that the next step would be install a kernel with recovery option it and I felt most recommended were Phil'z kernels.. So that is what I did. I downloaded Odin v3.09 and (not able to post URLs since a new user) Philz kernel (PhilZ-cwm6-XXLT9-ORA-5.11.2.tar) but it always got stuck at zimage.. tried 3 diff cables and 4 diff usb ports.. turned out the culprit was Odin version.. downloaded v 1.30 and it worked.. I was able to flash it to Philz kernel with a pass in Odin.. Tried to see if I could get the recovery option now but nada.. still stuck at the boot logo screen. Tried other Philz kernels for n7000 to see if they would do the trick.. I tried (philz_touch_6.07.9-n7000.tar.md5) and (philz_touch_6.12.8-n7000.tar.md5) but both got stuck at zimage so I left it at the cwm6 one.
Now read other threads and I got that the way to go back to stock kernel and flash the stock rom as well.. so downloaded the stock indian JB Rom (N7000DDLSC_N7000ODDLSC_N7000DDLS6_HOME.tar.md5) from sammobile's firmware and this stock kernel (DDLRI N7000), can't figure out which thread I downloaded this from though. So I flashed the kernel first and it was a pass and the odin mode screen showed, custom bin count as 1 and current binary as samsung official. Next I tried to flash the stock rom but Odin got stuck at 'factoryfs.img'. Then dunno why I thought that stock kernel is bad and decided to go to back to Philz kernel.. the one that I was able to flash successfully. I did it via Odin and it was a pass, the phone restarted and it hasn't switched on since. I mean I don't have even the download mode now.
So in short, no recovery mode, no download mode, and no boot loop screen as well.. I have tried to see if its in deep freeze or not, I mean whether the screen is not displaying anything and still be able to go to download mode to see if ODIN is able to detect it but it ain't working. Also if I try to charge it, nothings displayed on the screen but it does get warm
Do I have any hope in reviving it on my own? I have tried to contact fellow xda mates here in gurgaon to see if they can lend me their usb jig yet to see their response.. Is it worth it to spend money to get one of my own? Any idea what the fault might me and if all's lost how much would samsung charge me on fixing it.
Samsung would definitely charge too much, but i dont see anything wrong that you might have done to end up in this situation. I would suggest you to use a fully charged battery first to see if you can access download or recovery mode and if you dont have spare battery try to use external charger to charge only battery outside of phone, insert in phone and try the download mode or the recovery mode. USB jig shouldn't be too expensive if you want to try that after charging the battery and you can also make USB jig yourself if you understand those things.
Cheers!!!
Well I am trying to figure out where to buy the resistors to buy from.. Dad has a soldering kit so should be able to use that.. Yes I am afraid Samsung will charge me a bomb for this.. and on top of it I had bought a new battery just a day before.. Now I don't have an external charger to charge the battery separately.. Doesn't the device heating up mean that its charging?

It may mean that its charging as there is no way to check, purchase these, very inexpensive:

Not advertising, not promoting just showing the picture. You would get it from any local shop.
Okay, will get one.. So you think there's still hope for my poor phone
Can't figure out why its lost its download screen.
Had gone on a work related trip hence the gap.. Got an external charger but didn't help.. same result..
Too much of a hassle to get the resistors where i live.. Have ordered one for myself now.. and that I believe is going to be my last hope or else I am going to have a very expensive paperweight.
Do you think it would be worth to get it checked by Samsung.. I hope they do give at least an estimate of the repair cost.
From what I have read in the forums here Samsung would charge around 260 $ on a new motherboard which would cost around 260$ and with the same amount I can buy a new Moto G.. so that's that.. waiting for the jig and then will make a call on what to do..
Please let me know if there is something else I can do to salvage this phone. Thanks

Yes, try the JIG and if that too doesn't work, get an estimate atleast from Samsung (no harm in it). There are always repair technicians in the famous market (if you know which place i am referring to)

Got the jig today.. Still nothing the screen remains black even if I plug in the jig.. No download mode.. Connecting it to pc after removing the jig, with ODIN on also doesn't show any sign of life.. Guess will take it to the samsung service center and will ask for their estimate.. If they charge a paisa above 5k going for the Moto G then..
The jig works, I tried it on me mum's old galaxy y so has to be the phone only.. Thanks Hawk for all the help.. and regarding the famous market I think you were referring to Gaffar isn't it

Guess will take it to the samsung service center and will ask for their estimate.. If they charge a paisa above 5k going for the Moto G then..
The jig works, I tried it on me mum's old galaxy y so has to be the phone only.. Thanks Hawk for all the help.. and regarding the famous market I think you were referring to Gaffar isn't it

That's nice.. its a always a worry that you might get ripped off there Let me visit the service center today and see what they come back with.. If all fails will PM you for your friends details and take it to him.
They are charging me 8k - 9k.. :crying:
The mobo has failed and needs replacement. Seems like its time to say to bbye to my good old note.. and to top it, I think Note has spoiled me as well.. I had a friends moto g to try its look and feel.. it seemed so puny compared to my note and didn't like it the way it was don't understand why didn't they give an expandable memory slot as well..
Looks like am going to shell out more than 20k for my new phone now Hawk do you mind PM'ing me the contact details of the guy you know in Gaffar market.. Have to go to CP today so might as well give it a shot there.
