When I first got my G Flex I didn't have this issue. Now it has slowly progessed to the point that it's dropping the connection every 30 seconds. This is a brand new Windows 8.1 PC and it's connected to the USB 3.0 port. (I've also tried the standard ports) I've found a hub that's externally powered. Could that help? Can I do a factory reset and keep my root? TIA
Sounds like a bad USB cable.
Try it with another PC /different cable
Worst case it's a broken USB port on the PC or phone.
Have you tried cleaning the USB port on the phone/PC?

I just got the Captivate last week. I've noticed that it doesn't recognize the USB connection if I just plug in the cable at "normal" speed. If I plug in the USB cable s-l-o-w-l-y the phone recognizes the cable and everything works. If I don't plug in s-l-o-w-l-y the computer gives me a USB inserted sound but the phone doesn't seem to know it is connected.
I've also noticed that the phone will (with the slow insertion) always say usb connected once the cable is inserted even if the computer end is not connected.
Anyone else experience this? Thoughts? Bad phone or bad cable?
What ROM are you using?
What USB Drivers do you have installed if any?
What OS are you running?
Pretty much it depends... if your using a custom ROM that could be the culprit though it doesn't sound like it from what you have posted.
Try re-installing your USB drivers for the Samsung Captivate. Make sure your running the correct version. (Search for Design Gears OTA Odin 1 Click post - has the drivers linked there).
And of course... it could be your computer itself. Reboot fixes 90% of all computer issues
Firmware 2.1-update1
Baseband I897UCJH7
Stock - not rooted. Drivers do not seem to be the issue. It happens on multiple computers. Rebooting phone and/or computer does not change things. Same under Windows and Linux.
I kind of have to slowly inch the USB cable into the phone until the phone recognizes it. If the computer end is not connected to anything, the phone sometimes still will recognize the USB cable and say USB connected. If I plug the phone end in first, then the computer end the phone doesn't recognize the connection.

Whenever I connect my HTC One device to my computer via USB, sometimes my PC recognizes it. At other times, however, the USB connection disconnects. It's as if there is a loose connection between the cable and HTC One device. Is there a way to fix this? Or should I replace the cable?

Might be a cable, or it might be an issue with the USB port itself. Not that the USB port is faulty, mind you, just simply that the phone doesn't "like" it. For instance, if I plug my phone using OEM/non-OEM cables into a blue USB3.0 port in the back of my motherboard, I can't use fastboot/ADB commands. However, if I plug it into a pink USB port(supposed to be used by my keyboard/mouse), then there's no problems.
Anyone have a non-functioning USB port? PC doesn't recognize my Z3 compact and it wont charge as well when connected to the PC. The USB port was working when I first got the phone, then suddenly stopped being functional. I cannot even charge through it as well.
Have you tried another cable?
Are you trying to charge from wall adapter to the usb port?
If yes, send to repair.
I have already tried connecting using different cables and PCs/ laptops. Even did a full reset several times. then, suddenly, the uSB connection began working: USB connection to computer and USB charging worked. Mysterious?? Maybe loose connection inside the phone??
I've noticed it won't charge with certain cables, chargers and vehicles. Seems to be hit and miss.
Hello,
I experiece a problem with my stock xt1068. I tried these past days to connect my phone to my pc using a usb cable and the phone was not detected by my PC. I tried doing this both on my desktop and laptop, usb 2.0 and 3.0 but no luck. I was using a different USB cable than the original and tried it with two different cables. The cables work with other phones. I also tried this at work where I have the original USB cable and there it works.
Do you guys think the phone only works with the original cable or is there a problem with the phone?
If there is a problem with the phone will a factory reset get rid of it?
I am also mentioning that whatever cable I used the charging worked.
I've seen similar reports of type C port connection failure, wether with quick charge or PC connection, but no one gave a solution.
Out of no where ( almost a week now) the device would charge less than 1A regardless of the charger or cable.
OTG doesn't work
PC connection charge the device, but neither the device not the PC detect the connection.
The port is clean
Factory reset doesn't help
Different cables and PCs didn't either.
Any solution?!
