Few days ago, I connected my phone to pc while in fastboot and there was a small spark and burnt smell on the USB port. Nothing melted though. Since then, my phone won't connect. The phone still turns on.
Do you guys think that just replacing the USB port on my One will solve the problem?

Assuming you have tried different cables and computer ports, the next thing to look at would be the USB port on the phone.

So, after messing around with AC Sideload Wonder Machine installing a bunch of apps, something happened and now I can't mount my Captivate to my computer. When I plug the USB into the PC, it momentarily shows "Charging" on BattStatt, but then it goes away immediately and the phone does not show an option to mount nor does it charge the phone.
I have the USB settings set to Mass Storage and USB debugging off. I've tried a different computer and nothing. USB drivers have been installed.
For some reason, it charges the phone if I plug it into the wall.
Did I damage the cable? Did I corrupt some system files? Any advice? Thanks in advance.
Edit: Not rooted, stock android 2.1. I've tried uninstalling/reinstalling the USB drivers. Doesn't help.
Did you try enabling usb debugging again?

Yeah, that doesn't do anything either.
D'oh, just went through this too. Been a while I guess since I'd done it. You have to open the notification bar and select the "copy files for USB" option.

try using another cable, if it doesn't work, look into possibly master reset. If not that, try one click downloader reset.

I just tried another cable on another PC and it sort of works if I jiggle it a bit - I'm able to maintain a connection and transfer files, and it charges as well. I'm starting to think the USB port on the my phone may be defective.
My usb port was a little bent on my phone, after one of my sons tried to disconnect the cable sideways rather than straight. I just adjusted the outer parts very carefully with small pliers, and also bent the inner contact slightly. After that I had no more problems with charging, just be careful! Maybe that could help you, mrpibb?
Also make sure your USB slider door is fully open. It will "click" when fully open or closed.

Yeah, it's fully opened. Using the cable that came with the phone, it never works. Using a different cable, it sometimes works. The weird thing is that it charges fine via AC adapter when its plugged into the wall.

Spitballing here but it might not be the cable but the adapter on the phone.
Pins 1 and 5 (power) might be ok but either pin 2 or 3 (data) could be defective on the phone.

That's my fear as well. I'm screwed?
When i connect the phone to usb cable, the display go black and it will reboot if i unplug it. Does anyone have a similar problem? and how can i fix it?
Thanks alot,
Could be your usb connection on the phone has been damaged...Or try using another usb cable. My hd7 would not charge a week ago and i thought my phone was pooched. First thought i damaged the connector turns out it was my cable..The cable appeared okay but once i swapped a new usb cable it was fine....Hope this is what it is for you....
you are buy new cable for phone
So, every time I connect my Moto X to my Windows Laptop via USB, it always keeps plugging and unplugging itself as if I was doing it. The phone icon appears and it begins to try and load the memory storage and then it just vanishes and "unplugs itself". As of now, I just unplug the USB cable from one slot of the laptop and then insert it in another, and it fixes the issue.
Now, that doesn't work either. What's the problem and how can I fix it?
Chances are it's one of a few things.
Bad cable. Bad ports on laptop. Or the port on your phone.
I'd start with some different cables.
Then try a different pc.
If it's the phone, then that's a problem. The phone ports are fragile. My daughters Gtab3 has a wonky port, cause I'm sure the plastic tab was snapped by her using the tablet while it's plugged in. So now to charge it, it will only work sitting still on whatever and I have to jiggle the cable to get it just right. It's only help by the wires inside now.

I repaired the Moto X Device Manager and now I'm using a different cable. So far. so good. I'll report back in a few days to see if anything changes.
Guys please help me out I am in serious problem.
I have an international M7 with developer ROM on it. Till yesterday everything was 100% fine. But this morning when I tried to charge it, it gave me an error saying use a supported charger. I have been using the original charger from the beginning. And since then no other chargers are able to charge it. No error message no nothing.
When I try to charge it while powered off it shows "charging" for 1 second and powers down, then again powers back on saying "charging" and this keeps going on n on.
I tried using an OTG flash drive and its working perfectly. Device is powering on without any problem what so ever. Its just not charging. Its also not getting detected by computer.
Please help me out!
:crying:
Interestingly enough, I had this problem last night.
The first time I plugged it in, I got the error about using a supported charger but i simply just unplugged it and replugged it in and everything was fine.
So... I don't really have a solution, sorry.
I'm on InsertCoin 4.0.2 on a Dev Edition M7

you also tried charging from your pc's usb port?
if a factory reset and another outlet doesnt work then i'd consider contacting htc..

Its not charging or even getting detected on a PC as already mentioned and HTC CC is charging me 150$ for repairing :crying:
In fact they are charging the first 100$ just for opening the device. Huh...
Cant factory reset, very little battery is left so big risk. Is there no one else who has faced this problem ?
Again reminding you, OTG does still work...

The OTG still working has nothing to do with charging
their are 4 conncetions inside that usb port you need 2 of them to charge the other 2 for data. You say you cleaned the port.
Define cleaned the port.
I had a Samsung (same microusb port) stop being seen by PC or charging. I shut the phone off and used a paper towel folded to a point on one end, and dipped in rubbing alcohol. I inserted this into the port and let it set about 1 min. Removed it and folded the towel again and inserted the dry end. After 3 attempts at this the charger and data ports all work again. give it a shot.

I faced a similar problem while I installed cm11 nightly version. I resolved my problem by letting it charge for 9-10 hours in power off mode. It worked for me.
I have the February 2021 update installed on the global variant of the Razer phone 2 and everytime I connect it to my computer it says that the computer can't recognize it
I have tried connecting it to my other computers as well and it gives the exact same issue even on fastboot mode.
I tried different chargers, ports, windows 10/11, resetting the device many times, downloading the USB driver for it many times, reinstalling platform tools, many times, resetting my computer, updating all my driver's after resetting my pc,
I've tried my other phones and they work fine with all of my computers no hassal at all but I can't get the Razer phone to work.
I have USB debugging enabled but when I connect to the computer it doesn't show the notification on the phone but it is charging.
Please help I really don't know what else to try.
wasup.. im having this problem right now. exccept for me. my usb charger port went out so i replaced it. and its only charging for me now. my computer wont beep when its plugged in, doesnt even recognize it . it just charges. u ever figure it out? have u replaced ur charger port at all? that could be the issue maybe it not a factory part or somethin.
Yea eventually I just figured out that my USB port was bad and I just pushed the charger in and it worked you just gotta press the charger in and make sure you have a good charger that won't slip out easy.
Also if you're trying to debug make sure you check each port for the best one
