When 7.0.0 was released, I started fresh and installed the official image from scratch. Before, with either 6.x.x or the N beta previews, I had NO problems connecting via USB to transfer data. Now with 7.0.0, I can no longer transfer data via USB. I don't have any options on my phone to switch from charging to data or any of the other connection methods. I also get some warnings on my PC that say the device is causing a power surge on the PC USB port. Has this happened to anyone else? Any suggestions on how to fix this?

I haven't found any way to fix this. Wi-Fi is a decent workaround. What really sucks about this is that the 7.0.0 flash I did seems like it will be the last flash this phone ever gets. I'm stuck with a clean flash of the last major stock official ROM this phone will get, so I'm fine with that.
I've had problems with the USB port and charging circuit on this phone for a few months now, which is probably why this is happening. It doesn't explain why I had no problems with just simple USB data transfer up until the official 7.0.0 release (right after it installed), but coincidences happen.
My screen has been badly shattered for about a year. This phone is almost done. I could probably still do the warranty claim though Motorola, but I'm just going to hop on over to Pixel and see how that works.

Ah ok. Yeah, you'll need USB for that. I did 2 warranty claims with Moto, even though I bought it from Google, and I have no complaints. If you can find a way to deal with the $500 credit card hold for a few days, it's worth it.
Yeah that's it don't have the hold money and that sucks man ....

Did you try using a different USB cable? Because it seems either your cable or in the worst case your usb port short circuits your computer's USB. Or the other way round. Did you try it with another computer?

Hello.
Im looking for OTG cable compatible with Nexus S. I've watched many videos but I don't know if to buy some 'no-name' otg or the one from Samsung - ET-R205. But I've heard that ET-R205 doesn't work sometimes with NS. What do you guys have? Thanks
Here is a cable for 3$ CLICK or this but a little more expensive.
Even if work is not so big problem. That is cheap enough
Both look like ET-R205, but I already found one at my local shop.
Thanks anyway
here you can find some really cheap ones:
Code:
ebay.de/sch/i.html?LH_BIN=1&_sop=15&_from=R40&_nkw=Micro+USB+OTG&LH_PrefLoc=2&rt=nc&clk_rvr_id=359695944656
using this http://www.ebay.com/itm/10cm-Micro-..._USB_Cables_Hubs_Adapters&hash=item19ce77ab97
dont need external power supply?
its only connect the usb pen and rocks?
Does the 3$ one work perfectly???
I mean does nexus s read any pen drive w/o any external power source or special kernel???

Ok, so far no luck with anything. Tried pendrive, mouse, external HDD... The phone (app) recognizes that cable is OTG, so there shouldn't be a problem.. Im on AirKernel right now, might try matrix, but I doubt it will help since both have same files of OTG v5 from sztupy

I think you need a external power suply..
Because our Nexus dont have the Amp needed...
I use it! I have everything set up with Y cable, going to flash matrix kernel, hope it will work then
IT WORKS! muahahaha.. I dont know where was the problem, maybe in the external charger (I firstly used one with only 0,4A, not replaced with 1A) and I also used different Y cable..
Mouse Logitech MX400 worked flawless, also Logitech Rumblepad 2...
For pendrive, I had to use it in USB 1.0 hub, 2.0 doesn't work :/
/Also, expect few restarts and few hours configuring this
I thought I got lucky and got a N7 without any problems but it looks like my micro USB port is defective! The plug only works if I lightly push it down, the contacts inside aren't connecting properly. I've attached a picture showing how I had to rig it to get it to charge.
Interesting. Mine has been on charge for 5 hours and it still won't switch on or give any charging notifications. I've already requested a refund from google, but if this works I'll at least be able to spend the £15 play credit on books!
when come out of the package, there is a clear tape/wrap around the plug, did you remove that? I didn't bother to remove mine and I find the usb plug to be pretty tight.. tighter than all other devices I've owned..
Odd, if anything my USB port/cable are tighter than any other device I own.

You're keeping it, in this state? RMA is your friend
This sucks! I need to be able to use this device daily for work. It's replaced an older one I've gotten rid of. Will Google send a new one first?
try replace a cable first?? Use one from your phone and see how's the fitment first. Could be just the cable.
I have noticed that the one that shipped works fine, but I have another one with a longer cord (so it can sit on my desk and charge it's a long way to the floor) and that one slips out unless it's sitting on the desk I can't use it or the plug will fall out.
Mine seems to be the tightest fit of any device yet but I have left the plastic on the tip.
If you have to rig it like that it more then likely has a bad solder joint meaning it the charging port needs to be re-soldered back down to the phone, or the port may need to be replaced because one or more of the legs has broken off of the back of the port, or one or more of the pins inside the front of the port is bent out of place.

Yes, ask for an Advanced RMA. Although, to get one you need to give them some payment information. They send you another device and put a hold on your credit card until they receive the other device.

My USB port has become loose after a week of general use and charging. Going to contact Google for repair / replacement I think. Not the first device I have had this problem on - although I doubt like my Alienware they will send an engineer out to fix it on site (now that is service).
Ive got this problem now too. GOing to return it tonight and hopefully get a new one.
Had to return mine also
I had to return my micro USB plug also ,,, but Nexus sent another
in about a week ... called them for info on how ,,, and they
sent info to email ..
I understand completely, I wish someone would tell me a simpler method than resoldering the port. I'm nowhere inclined to do this myself being as I have no clue how to even begin how to solder anything. I have to use 2 rubber bands, an 8 inch strip of clear duct tape, a bottle of hair gel to add weight, and my microwave to hold it all in place.. =| HELP??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I might be screwed here, but my son grabbed my phone while it was charging and broke the charging port. I currently have about 5% power left ( I had just plugged it in when my son broke it) and I am running SS 3.11. I accidentally deleted the safe rom and wanted to see if there was a way to uninstall the SS from the filemanager portion. basically, I got 5% to get this guy ready to send back to verizon, but feel like there may be no hope, I have tried getting it to charge through the charging port, but I am pretty sure it is completely disconnected because i can get no charge and no read from a pc... anyhelp would be amazing... willing to try anythign at this point...

That sucks man. Here's what you are probably going to have to do. You should be able to charge the battery by sacrificing a USB cable and manually hooking it up to the correct contact points on the battery. Google it and I'm sure you'll be able to figure out how to do that. Once you get it sufficiently charged (I'd say at least 50% - 60%) go to this thread from your phone: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2205576.
Once there find a post by sd_shadow. In his signature he has a link to his google drive with all kinds of good stuff, including a stock nandroid backup. Download the nandroid backup and restore it to your stock slot. Once you've done that you should be able to boot back into to the stock ROM, delete safestrap, and then do a factory data reset.
It's not a perfect solution but I think that's probably going to be your best bet.
Good luck!
P.S. Thanks to sd_shadow for giving us all access to his collection of D4 goodies!

The Loki patch is not a bootloader unlock you cannot install cwm through ROM manager you have to use an app called freegee once the screen is not turning on I don't think its fixable I may be wrong but it sounds like its really bricked

Is there any news on this? I have tried everything to get the g2 to fire back up but no luck. When charging the led blinks red. When attempting to turn it on the phone vibrates every 2 seconds. I think I am just going to get a replacement. Anyone have any advice?
On a separate note, I have no idea why this happened. I clean wiped, installed a rom, rebooted all from recovery and the phone never booted into anything. I wasn't even a slight bit worried because I know I did this correctly.
I appreciate it, thanks.

Just get a replacement. tell them that it wont turn on. DO NOT tell them that you rooted it. hahaha
Just had this happen to me.
It's probably dead.
Plug it in and give it some time to charge.
I finally got into recovery mode and was able to restore a ROM (bad flash and was stuck at the LG logo)
Freegee has been bricking devices since its conception. I'm surprised people are still trying to use it.
If anyone reads this before trying to use it, I would suggest not to.
I've used flashify once and it worked fine, but it's really best to push it via adb. Don't know how? Google is your friend. Or the search function on these forums. There's full guides on how to push a recovery on the g2.
Taking the easy way is normally never the best way.

No download mode, no recovery. The stupid LED wouldn't even light up. Luckily, I was fortunate enough to get my old phone back.

I am pretty sure that LG has a 1 year warranty and they would've replaced it for you for free. I went to Verizon and they sent me a new one right away but a while back I had upgraded my old droid 1 before the 1 year period ended and I bricked it just messing around. Motorola replaced it with a refurb and I never even went to Verizon. I just had to pay shipping. Maybe you should try the same thing. Just send a couple emails back and forth with LG customer support and see what happens. Good luck.

Mine did the same thing this morning, although it has been fine for 2 months since root+xposed+freegee (for TWRP).
But if I send it back for warranty replacement, will they be able to see it has been rooted if it won't turn on? I love the phone, but really don't want to be billed full price for a new one.
I hope someone can help me. I bought my wife a Note 4 last week and a few days ago she says that it is charging real slow. After trouble shooting I just exchanged her phone and the guys at T-Mobile said it was bad. The problem is, now my phone is doing the same thing. Like her charger fried my usb port. It will charge slowly, like 80% when it is plugged in all night. And the computer can no longer see it. I tried changing the rom and that didn't help. I can't odin it back to stock because it is no longer visible to the computer. I called T-Mobile, and they said it isn't working right because my phone is rooted. Since when can they tell that from over the phone? Any way, I can just change batteries everyday for the next 6 months until my phone is able to Jump, but do you guys have any idea how to fix this. Also, it no longer says that an adaptive fast charger is attached. Can I take it back to full stock without odin? Thanks in advance.
Let me understand this, is it not charging properly on the charger or when you're charging it on USB that's connected to your computer?
First of all why does Tmobile know your phone is rooted?
Never tell them that. Thankfully if you need an exchange just call 611 and talk to a different person.

Reinstall the Samsung drivers on your computer.

And, yes you can go back to stock in recovery. Wipe cache, Dalvik cache, data, then flash a stock rom.

I want to know how they knew it was rooted. He told me he can see that it is rooted and that he couldn't help me. That's why I was hesitant to call back. I would love to be able Odin it back to stock recovery and stock rom but I'm thinking that it is a hardware issue because I have tried so many things, different Odins, another computer, at least 5 different cables. Have you ever heard of T-Mobile knowing when a phone is rooted? Thanks for the help, by the way.
So I installed a nonrooted rom and called back T-Mobile, and they have cancelled my warranty and I have to go through insurance to get a new phone. I'm pretty sure it is because the My T-Mobile app tells them when your phone is rooted. I didn't know this. Such crap. So I guess everyone should be aware of this. I'm just going to ride out my Jump period, then Jump to a cheap phone and quit T-Mobile.
I think i was known fact that tmobile app reports if phone is rooted or not. You need to disable it and they cant see phone status.

I have the same problem. Used FireKat Rom. Something zapped the USB port or board. Charges super slow, luckily I have wireless charging as an option. USB port is messed up, always showing up as "unrecognized" device on any computer, including Tmobile's trouble shooter at the store. So Odin is out of the question. Tried exchanging batteries and chargers with the wife's (untampered) Note 4. Still doesnt work. Even tried other Roms.
Luckily, I have a back up of stock setup in TWRP, just have to uninstall SuperSU. Who knows, this could be a real issue coming up. Certain apps wont work for me either because of this.

I just orderd a set of 2 batteries and a charger so I will just change batteries until I can jump in 6 months and plug my sd card into the computer when I need to put something on it. Sucks to not have fast charging though, it rocked. So what apps do you have that don't work?

I wish I had known that. I learned this the hard way. As long as my phone doesn't break more I will be alright.

Lot of apps are working, just certain ones like Instagram closes out all the time, but facebook still works. I forget the other ones that cancels out. Not too many. Im thinking the board was zapped somehow thats affecting the USB port. Just like a computer motherboard, eventually something else will start messing up. Softcard doesnt work, wifi calling doesnt work either (can hear them but they can't hear me), etc.

Cal 611 or go into a store. I went to a store and they're sending me a new/refurbished one. A warranty replacement. I will have to send mine back later.

I think i was known fact that tmobile app reports if phone is rooted or not. You need to disable it and they cant see phone status.

I've heard that, not that I believe it, but disable it. Wait a few days and call 611.

Maybe it's because I freeze or delete the Tmobile app with titanium every time.

So Nate, were you able to get it fixed? I got my replacement device in about 4 days. I just had to send my busted phone back in the box they supplied. I dont believe root is a problem because mine was rooted.

No, I wasn't. I had called with my phone rooted and they used the T-Mobile app to see that my phone was rooted. They then cancelled my warranty. So when I called back they said I had to go through insurance to get a new one. Sucks, but not the end of the world. Everything works fine but the usb port. I have plenty of batteries and a wall charger.
That's strange. I have the same Tmobile apps and they didnt say anything. I just brought it to a store and they can't even hook up to the "trouble shooting computer" since it sees it as an unknown device. The store reps just did the warranty exchange at the store. They'll just check the condition of the phone- my phone is in prestine condition and saw there was no water damage. They wrote all that information, asked my the prompted questions needed, none of them was of software related. Just water damage and dropping of phone. You can try just going into a store.
