hello can someone help me out!? Yesterday I tried to root my note 4 (again, it was rooted before but Odin back to stock) but this time it failed. I failed to notice my USB port is somewhat loose. So there's the base of the problem. I can't Odin back to stock because of this. It just keeps disconnecting I'm without my note 4 and using a note 3. I really want to get it back up and running. Can someone explain to me how I can?

Always use original USB and if it keeps disconnecting try different ports on the computer until one doesn't disconnect

Hey all,
facing a weird issue with SGS lately after ROM ing it with Darky's ROM 10.2 EE, my phone doesnt get detected by kies and also as a usb device
to resolve the USB issue i downloaded the USB drivers and reinstalled still it gets recognised as a usb device and i cant access it see screenie below
now this is a little pain as the stupid kies makes a single backup file of the entire thing and i cant import my contacts
Thanks

I believe you have to be on a Samsung ROM for KIES to recognize the phone.
True hence need solutions as to how can I get back my data which was backed up by kies

(head in hands).......why didnt you just google all your contacts in first place, then you will never ever have this problem! kies wont recognise your phone with a custom rom on it! in future think before you flash
Sad... so any solutions?

there is a way of getting your contacts back on phone but i have no idea what it is, but it involves converting the file format and pushing them back with adb, sorry i cant help you

Sure: Reflash a stock rom, restore contacts from kies, back them up using something else (port to google or use another wifi backup system on the computer). Then redo your custom flashing.
The details I don't know but that is the path....

It should be detected with proper drivers and a stock rom in kies. But better yet don't use kies its horrible.

You can download the USB drivers separately, install and try out different USB connectors. Maybe some old are bound to the odd drivers

After rooting my phone and after using it fire about a week something weird happened to my phone, on Sunday the phone restart it itself and when it booted up the phone was stock on the Samsung screen after the metro pcs boot animation. I took out the battery several times but to no avail. It was dead. I finally took it to metro yesterday and they have me a brand new one. I'm more sure if i will root it again though.

rooting the phone does not causes the phone to die
something else happened
I don't know what could have happened to the phone. Its weird because it just got stuck.

CWM is used for backups.....but since you've not rooted yet......
I'm unsure about your phone but I get all my stock firmwares at www.samfirmware.com

Setting phones on fire usually kills them.
Did you try CPR on it? Check if it still has a heart beat.
This is murder!

Hey guys I got a question , I have a friend that rooted his droid 3, but when the update came out for it he went along and did it. Now the phone says its rooted but the computer won't read it. How do you fix this ?

He meant system version, not android version.
Anyway, assuming you're on 5.6.890, you can just reroot using 1clickroot
5.6.890.xt862 , so even though it says its rooted , just root it again ?

It could be a root issue but I would first ceck device manager on windows, try latest drivers, if that does now work go into recovery and turn on usb connection (I think its under advanced).

The main problem he's having is that the computer won't detect his phone.... I installed the drivers from Motorola and it didn't work....

Did you/he try the recovery thing? If all else fails then he could have to re flash the sys.

The 5.6.890 system update for some reason broke any no-name brand micro-USB cables from working with the Droid 3. Use the supplied one or buy one from Verizon or Motorola.

No issues using my $4 Chinese cables from eBay. Using 5.6.890 here.

Same problem as the OP, tried all of the above. If I input the ADB DEVICES command, it output :
87897897897987 Offline
Can't get it to show as online or whatever the other state may be.
you could boot into the recovery options and flash the sbf using RSD.
I also have cheap blackberry MicroUSB cables bought on ebay that work just fine.
It seems simple but have you tried toggling usb debugging. I had the same issue until someone suggested that to me and worked like a charm. Toggle while unplugged then plug it.in

Rooted my new phone yesterday and all went well, made all my backups like a good chap.
Now I have a slight issue, when I connect my phone to the PC via a usb cable it does not see it.
Anyone got an idea what I have done wrong. :crying:
TIA

Is usb debugging switched on?

Yes, I'd thought of that hence my post as I'm stumped...
This happens on both my I9300 and i9305. Does it read it as a media device?
You could always try install/update kies and reinstall drivers.

Note to self. Put phone away when tired.
Long story short, clicked the wrong link, disengaged brain and flashed a ROM for i9100 through PC Odin (complete PDA and PIT so should have been repartitioned).
Reboot and blank screen. But I can still hear the music when it boots and recovery must still be accessible as if I vol down+home+power I can get it to be recognised in Odin still. I just can't see anything.
As Odin sees it, I have tried installing philz's kernel, the 16gb pit file and stock ROM but still black screen. The ROM flash clearly worked as music has changed.
Not impressed with myself. Any clues what might be going on? Unless it's hardware wrt the screen I am hoping it's savable.
Thanks in advance.
Search for removing yellow triangle with old fashion on ics where you had to flash i9100 kernel to get it working, on this you had black screen as they aren't compatible i9100 and n7000 screens. I don't remember exactly what you had to do so I suggest you to search for it. It tells you how to enter dl mode blind and then flashing via odin a working rom.
Good luck

Thanks. Do you mean this thread? Have ordered a jig to follow those instructions.
All very odd - can't get any response from the Note after leaving it overnight - stuck a multimeter across the terminals of the battery and zero despite it being left plugged in all night.
Not good...
Yes this one but I think you could start from point 8 not 7 so jig isn't required. Remove battery and hope it has charge on it to flash it without a issue. Dunno if the flash with odin needs battery charged since the cable is applied on phone. So carefull.
Again hope it works

You should have at least 50% battery when doing flash with odin.
