when i connect the usb to my lg2x, be it from the standard lg plug or the pc literally nothing happens? i have tried different plug sockets, changed the phones battery and i know i have all the drivers installed.
the phone has been running fine since i got it 2nd hand about two weeks ago but just the past two days the phone has been playing up with lots of fc's (eg-process com.android.settings force close) which i managed to sort out
i am just hoping its not something fatal...
any advice would be much,much appreciated.

After owning my Hero for my 14 months, my Hero suddenly stopped recognizing when it was plugged into my computer through USB. The phone charged but did not give the option of mounting the phone.
I have tried connecting with recovery (both clockwork & Amon- Ra), through stock rom, Cm6 and Cm7. I wiped, flashed, removed the battery, removed the SD card, tried multiple computers and multiple USB cables.
One other symptom I noticed is that the battery started burning down very quickly. I eliminated any app that was causing this by wiping and flashing to stock with no apps, but the battery kept burning down.
I finally gave up and brought the phone back to a Sprint store and got an insurance replacement.
Now I have had my replacement phone for all of 10 days, and the same thing just happened to me again?
Is this a hardware problem and I have such bad luck that it happened to me again? Or is this something I might have messed up and could fix?
You could try a new sd card.
Yea its me again with the
Modified Hero
Is it doing this with all computers you connect into? and have you used the same USB cord each time?
Mine did the same thing after about 10 months. Mine also lost hboot or any ability to get to recovery. It did still charge though. Sprint swapped it out under the insurance plan

I have used multiple computers and multiple USB cables. The Sprint store tested it too and saw the same results.
I just got a new phone under the insurance from Sprint and I want to figure out what could be causing this so it doesn't hurt the new phone.
This might be a little late.
Iw as having the same problem with my Optimus V. When I plugged it into the computer it wasn't reading that it was in a computer,only that it was charging, my computer wasn't event picking up the phones usb connection either. I restored my phone, reinstalled all the LG drivers..still nothing. So I went into my device manager on my computer. Next to one usb port there was a little yellow exclamation point. it said that windows had stopped using that device because there was a problem. So i right clicked, hit disable, right clicked again, hit enable and it worked! Hope this helped.

As of this morning after pulling my LG Rev off my wall charger. I go to plug it into my desktop to move some files and what not only to find the phone is not recognizing that I'm hooked to a computer.
Thinking it was a cable issue I swapped between cables and nothing, rebooted, even did the old-battery pull, and still nothing!
However with each cable it acts as if I'm still plugging it into a wall/car charger. Only shows charging and nothing else, the computer doesn't even make a "USB" connected sound, let alone the computer doesn't even see the phone.
Did you reboot the computer and the phone?

I have, let alone tried it out on several computers at home all with the same outcome.
I didn't install any app, other then did a TiB last night prior to putting it on my wall charger(only way to get a good overnight charge vs USB).
I was planning on trying to install the Revolt ROM today. Come to hook it up to my computer this morning, and now this.
I've been having all sorts of odd issues, like the Verizon OTA update doesn't install. Gets about 30% on the updating/unpacking then pops up a {!} and reboots. So at least once a day my phone will reboot for that.
I currently am rooted BTW and i have tried to un-root and even let the update attempt to go, but no avail.
NOTE: I did notice something else just a few min ago, on the stock LG ROM at least. Normally regardless what source Car/wall/usb was being used to charge the phone, It would show both red/green on the LED while charging/charged. Now its only showing green regardless of it being charged/charging.
I think I may just do an exchange from Amazon wireless. Seeing how its within my 30day window yet to do so.
You did change your connection to mass storage when you connected to your computer?

Yeah, played with all the settings and swapping modes.
Just for kicks did a factory reset still nothing.
Curious, is there any way to UN-root w/out the ability to use the USB?
Well I got my new Revo, and it came pre-updated already
And major problems since I've had it, constant reboots, almost always losing connection. WiFi wouldn't stay connected either, even if I'm 5 ft from any router/AP.
And I've tried my best to push back to the pre-update, but no avail!
So I've gotten a hold of Amazon wireless and they are doing an exchange for me, I'm going to jump on board of the HTC TB. Hopefully I'll have a better sailing experience.
BTW, any one want an LG extend battery cheap? lol
usb prob on mine just fixed
omg...I just had a similar problem, except mine popped up on my phone saying that the factory cable is plugged in and can not be used to switch usb modes. I was like...what the frick man...this is the same cable I have always used. I tried alll sorts of crap to no avail. Finally, I reinstalled the lg drivers on my laptop and rebooted both my phone and laptop and voila! It all worked again, using the same factory cable that my phone and laptop just had a so-called problem with. Hope that works for you too...I know how frustrating things can be.
had a very similar issue several days ago. all of a sudden, the phone was no longer recognized. tried everything (different cables, different computers, different operating systems, toggled several different options in settings)......to no avail. had to take it back to best buy....exchanged it for a new revo...everything is good now (including the fact that it was loaded with v4).
Yesterday, the phone stopped charging. I thought the car charger is bad , so I plugged it in the home charger, still no charging, so I took out the battery. When I powered it on, I got a yellow screen with a little android digging with a shovel with words "Downloading, Do not turn off target". No matter what button combination I press, I can only get this screen to come up.
I have tried to do a hard reset several times, no luck, downloaded and installed drivers and did one click restore (I897UCJF6-final-OCD) , the phone is not seen by the software, have tried all usb ports ad different cables. also restarted laptop and reconnected with/without battery, still the same situation.
Phone was upgraded to official 2.2 update several months back and was hard reset once after that.
It seems, it is not getting power /connection from USB port since as soon as I take out battery, it dies even though it is connected to the USB port.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
The phone shouldn't stay on, even on USB, when you take out the battery. That's normal.
As far as getting it to connect, take a look at the "Captivate Connection Issues" thread in my signature. There should be something in there to help you out.
Thanks, I had looked at it earlier before posting too. Will have to try it out later in the day and report back.
I have tried the following with various combinations:
Laptop with win 7 64 bit and samsung drivers one click uploader and samsung usb cable, same cable with win xp desktop 32 bit with several attempts at rear usb ports. Have also tried to get the phone recognized by rebooting the laptop and desktop, but no luck.
Any direction to atleast able to see the phone?
Thanks
Do you have Kies instaled in your PC? Maybe it can help you! When you´re having problems with drivers just download Kies, it will download and instal them for you... Also try this it was helpful for me when I had softBrick...

Thanks for the tip. I will try and post the results.
in addition to different ports, maybe try a different pc, unless you have successfully connected cappy via usb to your laptop before.

Hi,
A few days ago i tried to connect my phone to the computer but the computer started making connect and disconnect sounds repeatedly. The phone wasn't able to connect to the pc and it didn't charge. I tried another pc with the same result, i also tried other cables again with the same result. But the phone still charged when I connected it to the charger.
Last night however my phone also stopped charging(AC). It was 1% when i woke up and it refused to charge (tried different chargers/cables). I only got it to charge the second time i turned it off and connected the charger. So, the usb port does still work, sometimes when i shut the phone down.
Is anybody familiar with this problem or do you think it's a hardware problem and should I bring it to the store.
Thanks,
Hi everyone, firs of all i want to apologize if this has been answered in some other threads but i did my research and coulndt find any solutions to my problem, that being said, here we go!.
Few days ago i noticed that my phone was dead, I thought it had just run out of battery and plugged it to the power outlet, after 10 mins i realized that it wasnt charging at all and i did a soft reset by keeping the power button pressed and voila!! it came back to life it was charging again so i took it and plugged it into my computer and there is when everything started because my computer wasnt recognizing the phone anymore. I thought that it was just that one time and so i restarted the phone and re plugged it to the computer and this time it not only wasnt recognized by it but it was not charging again and ever since I've been trying all kinds of methods to have the computer recognize the phone (different pc, diferent usb cords, reinstalled drivers, reset phone to factory settings, everything). I did find out though that if i turn the phone off and back on it'll charge and if i do it again, it wont so its like a cycle thing but the being recognized by a pc i havent been able to fix it. Any ideas?
I am running stock ATT 4.2.2 JB rom but rooted.
Thanks in advance.
Did you tried a different charger?
