Hi guys,
Originally the issue was with the USB / charging port , the phone wasn't charging properly it used to charge for a bit then stop. The battery was checked but it was fine.
Got the phone fixed the guy fixed the port and he also flashed new firmware, it originally had stock gingerbread and he replaced it with stock JVP 2.3.4.
Since then the phone charges fine but it doesn't connect to the laptop. Windows doesn't even make that sound to show it has been recognised. I have factory reset it, also cleared USB storage formatted the sd as well. I also reinstalled the USB drivers but still no luck.
I would appreciate help very much.
Cheers

I even tried to root using gingerbreak so I could flash using mobileodin but even that didn't work.

I think I'm sol here but I want to see if anyone has any ideas... I cannot connect to my computer via USB, I've tried 3 USB cables and my wife's captivate connects with all three but mine doesn't. I'm running cm7 now so I can't think of any way to return to stock, any ideas? Thanks in advance

OP,
Since ur on CM7, do u have the correct drivers installed (Nexus S) and did u try rebooting ur computer ??
Yeah and I even tried updating sdk again. And also my wife's captivate runs on cm7 also. I also tried different USB ports and a non Samsung cable I can't think of anything else to try

Well after about 3 hours of plugging and unplugging the usb it works now so im back on stock 2.2 and i have to say man does this suck. Im sort of half scared to move back to a gingerbread rom or cm7 again. Im going to check and see if i still have usb issues i hope i do so i can return this phone under warranty

I had the same issue. I uninstalled my drivers for the phone, then reinstalled them.
My phone charges fine, and my usb jig works fine. When I connect it to the pc. It charges fine. But to connect it to the pc, so I can mount the sd card or so I can connect to Odin, the micro usb doesn't connect right away for data transfer.
I need to insert the micro usb a little tiny bit, wait a second, then push it the rest of they way in, so the usb debugging notification pops up. And most of the time, I have to repeat the process of inserting and removing the micro usb several times, until the usb debugging and usb storage shows up in my notification Window.
I want to ask if anyone else has this problem. If so, is it the usb port going bad in my phone? It was like this ever since I bought the phone from ATT. Brand new out of the box, with contract.
EDIT: switched Samsung usb cables, and connected right away, no problems. No playing with the cable to try to get it to connect.

That sounds like a hardware defect. Also, try using a different USB cable. How long have you had it?

It may not b the usb port on the phone... I have 2 micro usb to usb cables, one that originally came with my captivate and it has always been loose. The other that I have came with my sgs 2 and it fits real snug in the captivate. ---- So maybe just try a different cable. Worth a try.

Hmm, that is true. The cable I use to flash my phone is a Samsung cable that came with my phone, and it fits a little loose. However, the cable I use to charge my phone fits snug. I haven't tried to connect it to my pc though. I was doing what I read on here, about using Samsung usb cables. So I will try it out, and see if it's the problem. Thanks.
EDIT: That was the problem. The cable is a Samsung, but it's not the cable that came with my phone. But it connects right away, no problems at all. I don't know why I didn't think about that in the first place. Lol. It's always the littlest things that you forget to try. Thank you!

Hi, My Usb-Port is broken. I´m using Ginger Real 2.0. Is it possible to flash a Stock Rom via CWM?
...question...if your usb port is broken how do you recharge your device?

Don't use mobile ODIN! You'll brick your phone.

Probable Solution
My phone's USB was also not working but I made it working. What you can do is first check whether your phone USB port is having any salt deposits (yes, salt deposits because of drying of un-noticed spilled water) if it is there clean it with any good quality cleaning fluid. Second you can try to push up the USB connector (chip on which USB connecting gold colored plates are sticked) to the screen side of the phone BUT NOT TOO MUCH. Try these when phone is off and battery is taken out. Do it carefully or you will end up in breaking your USB connector. These methods have worked for me, but try it on your own risk. I don't take any responsibility. Best luck.
need urgent help My Note is always showing that its on charging even if no charger hooked to it and it is giving popups that voltage too high charging stopped
how to fix this
need help
As a first guess... I would ask if you are using an original battery... And if you can swap it with another battery to see if it does the same thing.
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2
yeah i use original battery but dont think i can try with another battery
Will your phone work with just charger plugged in and no battery?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk 2
Clean your charging connection(where ya usb plugs in at bottom of phone) you have dirty connectors causing a short..clean gently

Seems to be a moisture issue on the micro usb port... used to happen a lot with SGNs... Samsung SC should help if no home remedies
