usb otg isnt working - Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I tried connecting my otg cable which was working before But the phone did not respond at all.
When I kept the cable connected(while my pendrive was still connected on the other end )without making any moment I turned my phone off and on. And woala it works but if I reboot my phone without the cable and then try connecting it with any device like storage media it does not just responds at all
All the devices used to work before. I haven't changed(neither updated) anything , running completely stock with a locked bootloader.
I tried it with an another Device as well as another cable both the cables were working and so was my pendrives.
I think it's some issue with the software!
It's giving me nuts... What should I do? Help me guys
Would be really thankful.

If you are rooted see if Chainfire's StickMount helps. Older,and doesn't require root is Chainfire's USB Host Diagnostics. This will be dependant on your ROM version. I know it doesn't work on my 7.1.2.
You might try cleaning your usb port.

[Q] USB device not recognized

Hi, I've been transferring some stuff to my galaxy s and now i'm getting this error everytime i attach the USB (USB Device not being recognized). I already reinstalled the samsung USB drivers, uninstalled and reinstalled USB root hub drivers, used a different USB port and restarted both PC and galaxy. Anyone have any idea how i can get my device to get recognized by my pc?
no one's encountered this problem before?
I get this on and off - i'm on Win 7. I tried all 4 ports and my hub and sometimes it plays ball - sometimes not.
I often find if I change the phone from 'mass storage' to 'ask on connection' it seems to improve its chances.
Worth a try.

I tried this as well including turning USB debugging on and off.. no luck though. Only thing i haven't done is format the internal SD, but I dont want to go there unless there really is no chance of fixing this. Any help you be greatly appreciated!

USB connection to PC not working

My phone was working perfectly until a few days ago when I noticed that USB connection to PC stopped working. I was running imilkas CM9 v2. USB used to work perfectly and then randomly, it just stopped working, I don't have a clue what caused it because I did not flash anything on the phone.
When I connect my Phone to the Computer via USB cable, my phone start charging and nothing else happens. My computer does not even show that I connected a USB device.
I've tried 3 other computers with the drivers and the same issue (1 comp with xp and the others with win 7). Also, not to mention, I've tried multiple USB cables, including the original. I've tried USB Debugging on and off, doesn't make a difference.
I've tried ADB and it does not recognize the device either.
In CWM when I mount USB storage, it does not work.
In download mode, when I plug in the cable, nothing happens, odin does not detect any connection.
USB connection to the computer is Dead and it does nothing but charge my phone.
Here is a list of things I've already tried to fix the issue:
1. Factory Reset.
2. Used Mobile Odin, reverted to my Phone's Stock GB ROM (KK2). On stock GB, I tried Kies Air and that worked fine, but USB connection had the same issue
3. Formatted the Internal Storage
4. Removed the SIM Card and Micro SD card, still no luck.
5. re-installed CWM (without pc)
6. Installed Paranoid Android 0.2
7. Called Samsung... They said they wont service my phone because I'm located in Canada and I have the International Note. They told me I'd have to take it to the country I bought it from.
If anyone can offer any help that would be great.
Thanks in advance.

As I have mentioned in my post that I've already tried multiple different cables, including the original.
Could be factory defect. flash original rom and take it to service center.

Phone used to work perfectly fine before. Already flashed original rom, it did nothing. And I've already talked to Samsung. They won't help me.
I've already mentioned that in my op! I would be nice to hear suggestions/solutions other than the ones I've mentioned.
Can anyone please help me out with this? I even tried cleaning the usb port a bit more, but no avail. I am guessing the file that recognizes a PC connection got corrupted some how. Anyone know how to update or replace that?

Make sure the cable is properly connected. Check for dust that might prevent it going in properly. Try a different cable. What OS are you using? I found where bootloader is dmg or incomplete Windows fails to detect it. Linux on the other hand detects it. Can't use it but you can detect it.
Can you connect to SW Update Mode? Battery out and plug into PC while holding vol up button.
If nothing works try taking it into the shop.

You can root your phone from there. If you have SW Update. I recommend taking it into the shop if you are still under warranty, If you don't have warranty then you can go ahead and root. Just install a patched bin and fls with Smart Flash Tool. It's one of the stickies (How to unbrick, I think)
hi
new to Android nation
I have the same issue when connecting to USB...
And I managed to flash with custom firmware (latest ZEUS version) and I rooted but the issue with USB connection is still there...
Anyway, I wiil try connecting it to Linux to check if that would work with USB connecting
UPDATE:
OK after some digging, I managed to (at least temporally) solve the issue... After fresh installing official 2.3.4 firmware I booted to recovery and from there formatted the system folder and then installed Zeus v7 firmware... anyway, USB connection and charging indicator work fine at first booting to system... As soon as I reboot the OS USB connection (and charging) get unstable, and after third reboot it completely goes away and the device does not recognize anything: if I connect USB cable it does not show any sing (charging indicator does not show battery charging, nor the device offers me to connect in mass storage, windows recognizes only modem but not the USB storage) and when I connect charger, battery indicator does not flash as charging... Battery monitor tool shows that "battery is discharging" even though the battery capacity seems to increase (according to growing percentage of battery capacity)... Is there a some kind of USB server... I am a total noob to Androiid OS (used to be Symibian from its beggining )so I hope you won`t mind if I used wrong terms in my explanation/comment...
I hope my explanation is not confusing
Cheers
UPDATE 2:
After installing Zeus v7.01 update, battery charging recognition got fixed using both USB cable and wall charger...
Anyway, USB recognition by PC problem still exists... But when in recovery mode I can successfully mount SD card to PC in Mass storage mode...
Will keep you updated... :victory:

Broken USB port, can't upload system via ODIN

Hello everyone!
My SGSA has broken USB port, but it wasn't such a problem. I had uploaded TWRP and all the time I wanted to change the software it was just few clicks. This time I tried to install some other ROM (I was looking for perfect performance, so I tested about 25+ ROMs within a month. This instalation has formated /system partition and as I think many others, beacuse I can't even boot into recovery, phone stays at "Samsung Galaxy S Advance I9070" logo. I am able to boot into "Download Mode" but beacuse of broken USB port PC detects it as a malfunctioned device. I wanna add that I tried maaaany PC's and many USB cables to connect.
Hope for help, cheers

Get that USB port replaced .. it doesn`t cost much . in india it costs only 200-rupees . Because if everything fails ODIN is your saviour and he can`t rescue you without a USB to PC connection .
I also have the same problem. After trying different ROMs, today I try to use Odin found The USB port is not recognized,
Is a Rom damaged a file or even damaged the Usb port? Can repair?
edit_2017-0205
I am very sorry for the reckless speculation.
2015-0903 I used Kies to upgrade my Chinese Simplified version of i9070 to ver4.12. Since the Simplified version of stock rom has something like Baidu and other useless apk
So I used TitaniumBackup to remove a lot of apk, more than a year have not used a USB cable link, just use the SD card to transfer files, this may be the reason, of course, may be physical damage to the USB port. Roms cause USB not to recognize just guess.
Now my phone recovery mode is still working, USB port can only charge..

If your phone does charge, then it means that the phone USB port is not broken.
Make sure that you have Samsung USB drivers installed. You can also try other PC USB.

Thank you.
PC usb port and usb data cable is working, they can adb debug mode to link another phone. I tried the SAMSUNG USB Driver for Mobile Phones-1.5.51.0.exe and samsung KiesSetup-2.5.3 (andkies 2.63) on that day without success.
Now mobile phone recovery mod brush into the Rom, the phone can use.

Can't get OTG to work or show up.

So I put this phone away for quite a while, I recently took it out to use with my USB c earpiece from Xiaomi, but it wasn't connecting. So I tried plugging in a USB C Otg thumbdriver, it too did not show up.
I was running Pixel Experience when it had treble support. But given I thought it might be at play for why it's not detected, I wiped and reinstslled miui through TWRP. However after doing that it still didn't work. So I tried to see if TWRP could detect a USB C thumbdriver, it too didn't detect. I resorted to using Mi Flash tool to Flash the stock firmware of Mi Max 2, but still doesn't work.
Anyone know what I could possibly do to get it to work? Thanks
I have a similar issue not same. Similarly my phone stopped detecting usb flash disk on otg. Below is what i did,
To understand if your usb port is malfunctioning, connect your phone to PC and try to communicate through ADB interface. If it goes well than your configuration somewhere deep there sucks (which is my case) or else you have a hardware problem.
