[Q] USB Damaged and Internal maybe corrupted need ideas

As you may know people I have a How To on how to Flash Roms and Fix various errors on your phones.
I currently have an S4 Mini thats why i havent been in this Forum for a while sorry for the people that have been following me..
But, I am at a loss with this one...
My friend has an i9000 which he found and has an iPhone (dont ask he's a traitor)..
Anyway...
USB is not recognised on PC what I mean is I think the USB Charge Port is Dead
Can Boot to recovery And Download mode (which is a bit of a bonus I think)
In Recovery there is multiple errors such as....
E :.. unknown volume for path cache/recovery/log
cant mount...
cant open .....
So I think the Internal memory is corrupted or damaged... so any ideas guys
As I used to have a link on my How to Guide.. but cant find the person that posted there fix for this..
I do know its just a matter of fixing the re-partition but have no access through USB port
Help, if you can guys and remember the USB doesnt work and battery is getting charged by an external battery charger (mains)

For USB problem use this guide to solve
For unknown path would normally be a CWM problem, so flash back to stock with PIT repartition or and use correct version of CWM and try or try switch CWM and correct version of ROM ( also check IMEI)

Thats the guide I was talking about
Thanks for that and Cant flash as Recovery shows errors all over the place and I can get into Download mode
but need to get USB port working first :good:
As when you plug the cable into thats attached to the PC it lights up that its charging then goes off again every few seconds so could be the port or the Board itself

you can flash using Mobile Odin a JVU or JVZ stock ROM, without PIT, to see if it boots follow this for Mobile Odin if phone can boot.
if not you can use a recovery tool to flash from PC , look in My Android Collections link below.
as for your USB question, had the answer in the back of my mind for that issue, but cannot recall it ay the moment , will see, if I can remember that but you should try the cleaning procedure in the mean time

m110s flashed as i9000

I've flashed m110s korean model with i9000 and I guess bootloader is gone...
Now it will not react to volume down+power+home.
Only computer will recognize usb connection for few seconds.
Is there any way to recover it without RIFF jtag and resurrector(without removing resistor)?

The reason for your problem is , you are pressing the wrong combo keys for download mode, read this and use repair kit to solve your problem

no, it's not keys error, now I have m110s with the same symptoms and it's not reacting to any keys combinations, I tried to flash I9000 bootloader to it and it died. now if I connect it to pc in device manager it asks for SEC S5PC110 Test B/D drivers for few seconds and after that it disappears.
so only soldering is a way to revive it?

Yes, you need to use JTAG, (z3x box) may do the job or if you want to try it by your self Look at My Android Solutions, (Link below) and also stickied in this forum for Problem Phone Dead, you can try unbreakable MOD, but seek advise from Adam Outler about it as it was designed for i9000 and not M110S

damn, jtag is way too expensive for just one phone.

well its done in Mobile service centers for a fee ( will depend on which one you go to) these days most mobile technicians have such boxes and they use it for Flashing directly to the mother board , which is the only way when download mode is inaccessible due to boot loader damage

The thing is you are still using JM1 ( BTW its hard to come by JM1 these days some people are searching for it like crazy) JM1 will not have recovery & download mode by combo keys, untill you fix it by flashing combo keys or by attaching it to KIES and updating it to Gingerbread .
To update the combo keys you need to flash the combo keys fix from here Look under recover recovery for it, If , I believe it may be difficult for you, use KIES to update your phone to ginger bread first.
If you cannot connect to KIES look here , it will give you step by step procedure to solve all problems

Edit: Odin will not work with JM1, untill you can get download mode, so you need to use USB JIG ( will give you download mode), than you can use Odin, so use only KIES, download from Samsung, if you don't have it yet.
First Step :-
1) Check phone USB slot for contacts/connection problems
Some get misaligned others gets damaged internally, and others somehow moved and needed a nudge to connect, so clean them, just to be sure. Follow this guide
How to clean micro USB port
How to fix looseness.
Cleaning the USB slot and contacts will surely help as the Galaxy S model USB slot is prone to moisture as well as dirt retention, where users have complained about failure to charge or overheating when charging in colder regions. So a blow dryer may do wonders at times like this
Even IF your USB cable can charge the phone, data connection contacts could have been lost due to internal pin damage as I have personally experienced it , not to forget misaligned pins on the micro B slot itself experienced by others.
2) If phone is not being detected of a sudden (Quick Guide)
1. Reboot PC after a power cord pull and Reboot Phone after a Battery Pull , try USB connection
2. Try using a different Samsung USB cable (must be sumsung and nothing else)
3. Try a different USB port (use USB slots at the back of PC)
4. Try on a lap top or different PC
5. Try install nexus drivers - needed for ICS firmwares
6. Make sure you don't have fast charge on.
7. Try moving the USB plug slightly, sideway or back and front, whilst connected to PC
8. Toggle WIFI and OFF it , reboot phone, check connection
Trick
1. Turn ON Bluetooth with "make my device discoverable" checked
2. Connect the USB cable from the computer to the phone
3. you will get this message: " if you elect to use USB your Bluetooth connection will be interrupted - OK?"
4. Touch OK and connection problem is solved
3) Re Install the Samsung USB Driver or according to your manufacturer Drivers Android USB Drivers - Universal Installer or other Devices download from here or Android OEM Drivers here
Changes of ROM, also have configuration changes on the phone, (just like changes in combo key functions) ...so driver changes works for some
Trick Putting your Phone into download mode and connecting it with USB cable to PC will do it automatically. Meaning drivers will be installed by windows If there are none.

maybe its possible as JM1 is the first ROM for your phone and did not include even the recovery/download mode key functions, so either buy a USB JIG ( about a dollar or two) in ebay to enter download mode and use Odin3 or install KIES in your PC ( can download free from Samsung, just google Samsung KIES) to use Samsung KIES phone manager.
I am not sure if the latest KIES will work ( connect) with your (ancient) firmware, if not you need to download an earliest version of KIES to connect with a JM1 firmware.
so only two options, since you won't know how to use other methods to flash a combo key fix to get download mode.

[Q] How to flash without USB (PORT) and With Corrupted Recovery

Hey Guys, I am in trouble and any help/advise will be highly appreciated....
So, First thing first.
Problems:
1. USB Port is Buggy, Cant connect to 0din or PC. I can just charge it.
2. Recovery mode is bit upside/down, means I cant mount USB, wipe anything, cant Partition SD Card,
Recovery Mode Reason:
I was on EHNDROIX V 14.1.24 and Unfortunately Tried to Flash Gingerbread (F1 Galaxy S2 V7).
I placed F1 Galaxy S2 V7 in internal SD and went into recovery and tried to flash, it started and after few seconds stopped, saying "Partitioning error" After that i lost my old ROM, Lost Root Access, Now Phone is just stucked at Samsung Logo.
So, was just curious is there any Magic Word that can Flash my i9000?
Any method, any expert who can give suggestion....
Thanks in Advance Guys
