When I conect my Black to the pc there is no notification and there is nothing in the pc either. It charges but the Black doen't recognize that it is charging, if i go to the phone status in settings it says it's discharging. there is also a massive battery drain (about 45% at night) that I believe that's related to that since i've tried many different roms including the stock one.
This looks like the usb brick that happens a lot in htc, but I'm not sure.
Does anybody know what's wrong?
Have you tried flashing stock rom back onto it to make sure that it is not an error of the ROM?
This is probably obvious but have you tried reinstalling the USB drivers?
Have u tried mounting USB storage in CWM? Or are you willing to reformat ur SD card?
What is the current state of ur phone? What ROM, kernel, software version, etc?
Plenty of questions to answer so we can narrow down ur query or maybe even direct the questions to the maker of the ROM.

The drivers are instaled. I'm currently with zeus v6.39n and with the rom kernel, but I don't think that it has to do with it since i've tried other roms including the official one and the problem was the same. I'd would preffer not to format my sd card. Do you really think it could help?
NO it wont help. Are you able to charge your phone or not? And did you maybe put any liquid over it? Or maybe ran around with your phone in the rain? Should be pretty easy to solve, if you know someone with technical skills, or give it to a LG service center. I mean I may be wrong, but if it doesnt even recognize a charger, then the USB is definitly broke... If it is still charging properly, try to flash it with smartflash or B2C app if possible. If it doesnt get better then, your USB is definitly malfunctioning. Sorry dude...

Yeah. I figured that I would have to send it to Lg. I was just hoping for someone to have a solution since it's realy inconvinient to not have my phone.
But thanks anyway.
Have a look here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29315863
Same issue, problem was short circuit in the board. Maybe suck up to some of ur friends who are good at circuits and get then to have a look.

This happened to me. Sent it to service and they said it was a problem with the motherboars. So LG was kind enough to replace it for free and for less than 2 weeks

after installing goosync my kaiser doesn't charge, doesn't sync.
i've try to hard reset, change pc, charger car... all no work
how can I resolve this problem?
sorry for my eng..

can i try install new rom by sd?
is impossible restore my kaiser?
Well I would say that if you have the OEM (factory) ROM on the phone and a hard reset isn't fixing it, then you have a bad port. Send it back in. Now if you have a cooked ROM then yeah just look in the wiki and it will tell you how to flash from the SD.. Sounds like a bad port so far.

let me know if you find out the same...my phone wont charge either, wont connect through USB. if i can't install a new rom through SD i'm screwed
If it wont charge when switched off it sounds like the usb port has gone. £25 in the UK for replacement.....had mine changed last week !!
I've had to have my phone warrantied twice because of this problem.
I'm nearing the end of warranty.
I wonder where and and at what cost to fix that in the U.S. I'm presuming this phone is pretty much doomed given how often I see this, and have experienced it.
I love the phone, and hate the quality. I've had it replace 2 other times for other reasons too, for 4 replacements. I handle it with kid gloves to try to be sure that I don't cause any problems.
Hey there everyone, I have to take my phone to warranty tomorrow, and I am currently on Serendipity 6.2 and using the Paragon kernel. My problem is, I can't connect via USB, hence going to warranty. I can use swiFTP to get files to the SD and then cwr to flash them, but I don't know how to get back on the stock rom and master clear without odin..
Any help is really appreciated since I don't want to pay the $430 for broken warranty.
umm why cant you connect by usb?
and worse case scenario, they cant proove you voided the warranty if it never turns on again *for some reason*. the electronic guts are worth about $50 to them, they dont waste valuable time and specialized equiptment to read a broken device to see if you voided you warranty. its not financially feasable.
you would have to find a cwm stock flash NOT rooted, with stock kernel, could get messy...
I don't know why I can't connect, I got the phone from At&t as a warranty replacement, and it shows that it is connected (lightning bolt on battery) but it never actually charges or shows up on my computer. (Win7 64 bit)
do you have the drivers installed? the proper ones NOT the automatic ones?

Yes, I've tried every driver I can find. I know its the port on the phone, because when I go to use the wall charger, the phone says its "charging" but it doesn't go up at all.

I think I got it. I flashed a KB1 rooted/deodexed rom and kernel, and my phone looks stock now Only problem, it shows superuser as an app. Any way to at least hide it/change name and icon?
wave it infront of a large speaker magnet for a while until it doesnt turn on.
or microwave for 2 second intervals. avoid physical damage!!
super user gone... and everything else
TAKE OUT YOUR SIM!!!!!!!!!!!
Poke around here a little more!
I am pretty sure I saw cwm flashable stock rom files on this forum. Might have been in the development sub-forum.

I had a problem that sounded exactly like what your explaining and the only thing i needed to do to fix it was use a different usb cord. Bending the cheap pos cable from samsuck can break the soldered contact points more easily then you would think.

My computer crashed while trying to flash an SGS I9000 through Odin. The phone will not boot at all - the screen just stays off. I've tried pulling the battery for extended periods but it makes no difference. I can't get into recovery mode or download mode. The screen seems permanently off.
When I put the battery in and plug the phone into the computer it tries (and fails) to install a driver for a "SEC S59C110 Test B/D".
I've tried the 301K resistor jig but it did not seem to do anything.
Any ideas on what I can do? The phone is long out of warranty, so if the phone is permanently dead then I'll just have to buy a new one (though I'm hoping for a fix, if possible!)

it's basically the same thing, but it talks about the possibility of using the unbrickable mod without doing the hardware mod... (if i got it right) wich i think it is your case because the computer is able to enumerate usb.

It's very strange that the jig fails on these situation.
Maybe that the jig is not correctly built....
Why don't you try with another usb dongle?
I hope that you solve your problem.
I can't believe it - I'm absolutely astounded. UnBrickable and Heimdall worked and they brought the phone back to life! Thank you guys so much!
you did the hardware mod for unbrickable?
No, I dismantled the phone and when I saw how tiny the resistors were I shat my pants.
I tried it without doing the hardware mods first, and I was going to mod it only if it failed (which, fortunately, it didn't!)
you lucky one then if the bootloader would be f.... up you would have to techmod
but anyways gg ;]
Hello, guys.. I'm having a real trouble with my Note. I bought it 3 months ago, but it seems that today's my "lucky" day and the microUSB connector isn't working anymore. At all. No charging, no "usb connected", no mass storage. It's not charging even when I turn off the phone and plug the charger.
So.. I guess I have to ask for a repair or a replacement. But here's the problem. I've changed both the kernel and the ROM and I have to restore the phone to it's original state before taking it to the service. I read the UNroot topic under the development section, but I didn't understand it well. I need to do it through the phone since I can't connect the device to my computer because of the malfunctioning microUSB port. I can't charge the battery either, so I'm stuck with only 36% power and I can't simply shoot in the dark. I turned the phone to save the power and I hope it should be enough to finish the operation, but I don't really know how to start it. I guess I have to download stock kernal and stock ROM and then flash it somehow (Mobile Odin!?), but I'm not sure and I really need your help.
Any help would be highly appreciated, I'll continue looking around for info.

It looks clean. The cable is okay too. I'm working at Gameloft so we have lot's of micro-usb devices and they're working just fine with the exact same PC and cable.
Anyway, to be 100% sure - how to clean the port? I mean - it's so tiny little hole and there isn't any direct access to it.. But I think it's gone.. It randomly shows "charging" while the cable is not plugged at all. Then it stops.. and starts again.

Put stock rom on your external sd,install mobile odin pro from market and use it to flash the stock rom.And remember donot select ever root,inject su,inject mobile odin.And after it finish flashing,you can send it for service
Put a stock rom and then try cleaning the USB as someone suggested. My usb port would stop working at random and I cleaned the port with a toothbrush and it has worked ever since. That was 2-3 months ago.
Well, thanks guys.. I'll try the tooth-brush trick when I get home and if it fails to solve the problem, I'm gonna flash the stock ROM with MOP and take it to the service. I'll keep you posted.

Not a difference you "see" technically. From my understanding mobile Odin cannot touch bootloaders. Pc Odin can. Someone can correct me if I'm wrong. From Chainfires first.post in his Mobile Odin thread, "While in theory Mobile ODIN can repartition and flash EFS and bootloaders, it will cowardly refuse to do so, for your own safety."

Assumign that you have a micro SD in the slot-
Take the micro SD out and connect it to your computer. Or use airdroid for file transfer over wifi. Whichever way you use, create a folder called firmware and put the .md5 in the folder and flash it through CWM or mobile odin.

Hello, my situation is this: S3 Mini running Carbon Rom 4.4.4 , flashed with TWRP. After running great for a few weeks, suddenly after charging all night the phone froze ( was on FB on CM Browser). It was totally unresponsive to any attempts so I pulled the battery ( this did happen a couple times before) and when I tried to restart, nothing. The phone responds to nothing, no download, no recovery, no charger.... battery is charged and I did try a different battery to no avail. The only response I get is if it is connected to a PC before I install the battery then when I install it (the battery) the PC tries to install u8500 usb rom drivers, which of course it never finds. Samsung device drivers are installed on the PC. Odin also fails to see it.
Is it dead? Is it salvageable? Can I recover any data off it?
Sorry for the new thread but it seemed I could not find a case exactly like mine.

There's no warranty on my device so taking it back is not an option. The phone was working fine for while so I suppose it's not the bootloader... what suprised me is that it happened outta the blue, not during start up... thanks for the advice though mate.

basically from what I've read, the jig you either buy off Ebay for 3$ or solder 300kΩ across pins 4 and 5 of a micro usb connector, But look it up before cause a nuclear holocaust

Honestly, I didnt think the jig would work, which is why Im not in much haste to do it, before you dump it though mate, try and find someone close to you with a JTAG setup.... I havent had much luck with that.
It was an ok phone... either I had high expectations or it was below the hype but that is just my 2 cents... at the end of the day it was a useful tool....
