Hi,
I currently encounter a problem with my Optimus 2X.
I can use my usb port to load the phone but when I plug it in a computer (I tried with several computers running XP / seven / ubuntu ... and several cables). But my phone doesn't seems to be recognized by the computers.
I'm running 2.6.32.45 cyanogenmod. I wanted to go back to the original rom but my backup seems corrupted
Does anywone knows how I can go back to the original rom ? (hopping it will fix my usb issue ....)
regards.
Uninstall the old drivers, and download v3.6 from lg's site it has fixed this issue. =P

Thank's a lot it works perfectly !
I now encounter a new problem, when I try to update my phone using the LG software, it stops at about 30% (looks like it's impossible to connect the phone with the software).
Edit -> I've found an old stock rom and installed it on my phone : everything works perfectly thanks a lot !!!
Guys
I'm running CM Nightlies and I can no longer connect my phone to any pc via USB.
Some have said I would have to flash phone back to an original rom in order to fix then flash CM back over it?
Is this really only way as worried will lose all my internal drive stuff.
You can try to change your drivers it works very well !
If you wan to save your stuff without using USB you can use FTP thrue à WIFI to send stuff on your PC.
I got the same problem since about 4 months. When connecting the phone to the computer, no usb icon appears on the notification bar, also there is nothing happening in the device manager on the computer. Charging always works.
This is still confirmed after using different computers, different usb cables, different usb ports, and 4 different versions of the drivers (up to the most recent 3.6 drivers) even it should still show something even with no drivers. This also occurs in "software update" mode.
Also I tried different ways of plugging in the cable on the phone side (slow, fast, with pressure up/down/side).
This is with CM7, CM9alpha, and just for test also with MIUI.
The odd thing is, in this time span, it randomly worked about 4 times in these 4 months. Last time was just after I updated to CM9 alpha it worked the first time I plugged it in (was surprised with that), but it stopped working too.
For me it seems it's something with the usb chip set in the phone.
The problem here is, returning the phone for RMA will cause problems with CM on the phone, as they probably will say it's because of a custom rom, and there is no (easy) way to get stock rom with branding back on the phone (the only one maybe with a nandroid backup of stock from someone else?).
I'm having the same trouble as dedors. Absolutely no USB data connection. Can't get anything going in nvflash, smart flash, recovery, or when running normally. I've tried uninstall and reinstall the drivers, multiple cables, multiple computers, multiple OS including win7 xp and Ubuntu. USB debugging enabled, disabled, wiping the SD cards, trying with no external sd card. The only glimmer I've seen of it working was when I plugged it into my old XP laptop before and it prompted the computer to install a driver for the webcam that I'd mistakenly uninstalled. I tried cleaning out the USB port in case it had a bunch of lint stuck in it and the cable just wasn't sitting properly.
I don't know at what point it stopped working but it has had no serious abuse that could cause any physical damage.
Oddly it still charges just fine.
Can't return for RMA as it's running Cyanogen 9 and I've no easy way to get it back to stock. I also had this problem on Cyanogen 7. I could probably flash a stock rom onto the phone but I wouldn't be able to nvflash the original recovery.
A lot of people seem to have had USB trouble with this phone.
Happy to provide any logs that may help the diagnosis though you may have to explain how I can acquire them as I only know basic flashing.
Sorry for the lengthy first post, trying to be thorough.
Thanks in advance for any help offered.
I can't think of any solution to your problem (in my opinion it seems like a faulty USB port, it seems to be "popular"), but I can suggest you a workaround... it's actually the workaround I've been using cuz I also have trouble with USB... get an SD card and a USB to SD card adapter...
Or that ftp/wireless trick that was mentioned above, I actually don't know how to do this but I would definitely like to
Yeah that does seem to be the case. At least I can still flash roms and so on. So long as it lasts me the rest of the year I don't mind grabbing a new one then.
Anyone who knows about logs for trouble shooting, can you suggest a way that I might try to diagnose the problem. If I can be sure the port is stuffed and nothing I can do will fix it I'm ok with that but I'd like to know whether I should keep looking for solutions or give up on it.
Cheers.
Hello,
I've got a new issue with my phone updating CM10 and today it's impossible to boot.
I've tried to plug it on my computer in order to flash it but got the same probleme as the first post : nothing happened when plugged on my computers.
Does anyone got this 3.6 drivers somewhere ? seems that the new ones from LG didn't works ....
I have the same problem
I how bought my phone (LG P990), 6 months old, used. I come home and try to connect it to the computer and it won't be recognized. Somehow I manage over that code 1809 # * 990 # to enter the menu and play with the ports I was able to connect to the computer and do the official update to 2.3.4. over LG software.Once again, this comp will not recognize phone (only charging), but using code 1809 # * 990 # and tampering on port settings it was able to connect to the computer.
Now after some time do stupidity and Root my mobile phone(SuperOneClick) and install clockwork-5.0.0.3 and via zip CyanogenMod 9. I tried all the ways that exist but pc does not recognize the phone anymore. After some time, the official ICS update is coming, and now that you can not connect the comp how to update mobile phone. I do a recovery back to the official Android 2.3.4 (I had to change the partitions, 2.3.4 and ICS use different sized partitions) and I run a mobile phone that is again official 2.3.4 and try entering the menu (1809 # * 990 #) by tampering with ports settings I tried to make comp to recognize the phone but to no avail. I tried to change the usb cable, use a different USB port on comp but nothing, no response just recharging.
After googling I managed to find recovery from ICS V28g and I managed to install it to have a functional phone. I contacted 2 service both refused to accept phone because rooted. I tried all the tricks without battery holding vol + and - to enter into APX mode, nothing then Power and vol - S / W mode that worked but comp ga would not recognize until now even that does not work (appears LG logo and when S / W should appear then goes off) and all the other tricks that I found on the internet, reinstall the drivers, I do not know what else.
Oh yeah and I noticed entering the settings on mobu System Settings / About Phone / Software Information / Baseband version - unknown

Hi,
I've found an old 3.6 driver, but nothing works even with it ... I think I must change my phone -_-
Hi,
I've search thru the forums and tried several things, but haven't found a solution.
My problem is that I no longer can make a USB-connection to my O2X.
The only thing that works in the micro-usb is charging. What I tried:
- Smartflash (power-up without battery while holding vol-)
- NVFlash (power-up without battery while holding both vol-buttons)
- Ordinary USB-connection (flash-drive)
- Cleaned it for dust
All of this was done on different windows machins (WinXP and Win7), all USB-ports and different USB-cables (inlcuding one that I know has worked before). Windows don't even show me the device.
The reason why I want to flash is that I think the current baseband (that I flashed) is not the best for my phone. So I want to try another baseband.
Do any of you have a suggestion on how to fix my phone or is the hardware toasted?
Best regards
Anders

Try going to Hardware and Sound and then Devices and Printers in the Control Panel. Maybe it'll show there.

You may try in a virgin PC where no USB drivers have been installed. Best would be format PC reinstalll WIN OS and try NVFLASH or SMARTFLASH after installing LG USB drivers. I have also faced similar problems and solved them in different PCs either friends or office. I somehow feel LGs drivers are badly written and not very smooth functioning. In fact I (and many others) have bricked O2X trying to upgrade to official GB updates by using LG PC suite and drivers.
This is only my suggestion. I did not had to format my PC any point of time. Don't curse me if this fails. This is only one of the trials and errors.
Maybe I should try from a Linux live-cd to check if it's windows or the phone who's acting strangely.

I got the exact same problem and after searching the net there are a lot of people having the same issue too.
Don't want to sound negative but the majority never got it to run again. For some it automagically started working again.
I got it to run only on Stock Froyo, no stock GB and no ICS with all the ICS Kernels available.
The thing which helped me on Froyo was: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=28985033&postcount=5
Unfortunately CM9 has no secret menu.
I once had it recognized with Jarvis Kernel on Paranoidandroid for a second and had a hotreboot. Then never again.
I'm pretty sure the PC and the LG Drivers make no difference in this case, as I got 5 different PCs running different OS for testing and they never made a difference.

Does the ROM has anything to do with Smartflash- and NVflash-modes? My guess is that they have nothing to do with each other. So my problem should persist even though I try different ROMs. Correct me if I'm wrong.
I'll look into the Froyo-topic you linked to.
Strange. Now it suddenly works again. I didn't do anything from the last time. That's odd.
I don't think that the ROM specifically has to do with the problem.
Stock Froyo just happened to be the only ROM where switching USB connection modes made the device seen in device manager on Windows. (Although it required manual .inf driver clickery.)
I'm sure missing USB connectivity affects people in NVFlash as well.
In my case I can't do **** ranging from USB mass storage when booted up, ADB or NVFlash when booting.
However restoring to the Froyo nandroid makes everything working for me again.
oh oh, it looks like the same issue that i had... No PC-connection (Win/Linux) recognized the mobile via USB. No Chance to get it back to work.
I flashed back to stock (very difficult without NVFlash...) and then send it back LG Service for repearing. After three weeks i got it back. They changed the hole mainboard so i got a new IMEI but USB works now again.

Yeah. It stopped working after I booted a couple of times
And it was only semi working, it didn't want to go into Smartflash-mode, only NVFlash and Flash-drive.

Nope, as I'm quite sure that it's not a matter of drivers.
Windows don't even detect the phone. So I think that the phone doesn't present itself.

Since you already tried changing cables, computers, and even windows & Linux, and since it works on and off, You're right - it isn't the rom nor the drivers. it does sound like the hardware is messed up where the cable connects.
Any chance you can get it serviced? Hope your warranty covers it.

Same problem, no solution
Hi,
I seem to have the same sort of problem with my phone.
I used to be able to connect my phone to my computer just fine until I upgraded it to Gingerbread. Or that is at least the last time the USB connection seemed to work.
I have looked all over the internet now to find a solution to the problem but can't find one. Hope you guys could help me on this.
My phone is an LG optimus 2x P990 with a stock ROM gingerbread 2.3.4
LGE Version LGP990-V20r
Kernel version 2.6.32.9
I've tried so far:
- rebooting phone and pc
- factory reset phone
- Use other pc's => didn't work
- Connect a samsung phone to my pc with my LG cable => did work
- uninstall and reinstall all the necessary drivers
- mass storage mode on and off
- Installed android SDK and looked for adb devices, none shown
- phone doesn't show in the computers device manager either
Although when I do connect the phone it starts charging and if I go to the tethering settings it does recognize the fact that it is connected through USB.
So why can't I get my PC to recognize the phone.
I really need it cause I would like to root my phone to install a custom ROM.
I have tried rooting it with Gingerbreak as well, but that doens't seem to work either.
Thanks for the help
I just made a recovery.log in CWM:

Hi, firts of all sorry for my english.
My sister give to me a BLU R1 HD 2GB RAM/16 ROM, it come without Amazon ads (so i think its OEM version). Its running BLU_R001UU_V21_GENERIC.
She told me that one day just not was recognized by PC to transfer files,photos, music. I make a wipe from recovery and still the problem no USB detection at all just charging, no sounds like new USB device was conected, no device on Device Manager.( i do this on diferents PC Windows 10, Windows 8, and Linux Elementary OS , Deeping OS)
I enable Developer Options and change MTP/PTP/Only Charge option and nothing happened; I opened the device to check the pins on the USB connector and check continuity and all seem like be perfect.
I thing that may be when was update to the last software something happen and lost USB recoginition, I want to Root the device and change Recovery but i see that the steps need connect the R1 HD to PC and make some things throw ADB console.
My question is: can i downgrade the original rom from SDcard in the actual Recovery.. to try recover the USB functions. or may be its something wrong on any internal chip that no make the USB conection.

I have not seen any other reports of usb dying after OtA update. You say you tried with different PC, what about using different usb cable?
But more bad news for your plans. If you have official v21 update, then you are not rootable anyway.

I have the exact same issue... and it happened just after an OTA Update. After that it showed it was charging only when the phone was shut down.
No USB recognition whatsoever. PC/Mac. Tried several cables.... All USB modes... Factory Reset... Nothing made it work.
I contacted BLU with the issue. As soon as I have an answer (If ever) I will let you know.
If any of you know anything about this please share it here.
Oddly enough, After a cache wipe and factory reset, I have no ads on the lock screen. The app is running on the background but nothing shows up.

I think if we can downgrade to a official rom under the actual recovery maybe that fix the USB. But all methods are under USB connection to PC.

As far as I know downgrading is not possible without making the phone unusable. If by any chance that is possible maybe an update from an SD Card can work.
Ever since I built my new PC running Windows 10 64 bit I can't get Odin to work. The phone connects in download mode but will not flash, it just fails with no error other than fail. I have a ASUS ROG STRIX B350-F mainboard with a AMD Ryzen 3 cpu. I know it isn't a windows issue because I can run Odin just fine on the other three Intel PC's running Windows 10 here and the bios. drivers and OS are all current. Oden is 3.13.1. I'm thinking it might be this mainboard but I would like some input before I purchase another. The thing that is puzzling me is the computer runs everything else but Odin just fine and that makes me think it might be a compatibility issue with the Ryzen cpu in general. Hopefully someone here can shed some light on this.

Yes, stock cable, aftermarket one and I've tried all the ports, USB 2.0, 3.0 and 3.1. No hubs either, just strait to the computer. I've been trying different things for about a month to no avail. Even Smart Switch works fine.

Ok that's odd I have the exact same issue on Intel board. My laptop cost almost 3k pounds so it's one of the best on the market.
Yesterday I got the new Odin and it don't even show my phone as connected which is wired.
I have been using this phone before with this laptop so I am thinking it's a flawed version of Odin going around.
I haven't yet tried an older version of Odin but it use to work in the past so I can't see why it should fail now but have you tried a previous version of Odin yet ?
Edit :
I use my phone and laptop daily with file transfers and I use PDAnet+ which I have used for years and they all work fine no issues as well so it's most likely Odin version.
I remember wired Chinese writing poping up when I first start the new Odin 3.13.1 so it might be a bugged leaked version.
Do you have the same Chinese text pop up on start ?

I thought the Chinese text was weird too. I did just try to Odin back to 7.1 with version 3.12.5 and still get the same error. At least it's not confined to AMD I guess.
EDIT: It doesn't even verify the files after the md5 check just before flashing, it just fails.

Firstly,
i have used the Odin 3.13.1 with the " Chinese writing" pop up. a few times now and again to flash Oreo. No issues, works fine for me.
Secondly,
Just a thought / test.?
Have you tried connecting
to the phone ADB .
If you run ADB cmd "ADB devices"
it will tell you " listed devices etc"
My point is it pc Win 10 recognizes that it sees a Android device, surely the correct version of Odin should also.? If not then you can accept that why Odin
does not see your devices.?
I might be off course but......sorry if but, it's
just a thought.?

Well at least your phone is seen by the software. I don't even get the little green box to show my phone is connected.
Only sign I get from connecting to pc is the sound of connection and the data transfer are available as I can see and surf my sd cards on pc side.
I am a bit busy lately so I'll mess about with it when I get time.
I tried flashing Oreo via Odin, it just didn't work. I saw there was an update (not oreo) for my phone, Ive only just got it back after a month but, when I tried after the ota update Odin worked for me.
Maybe that will resolve ypur issue?

Well at least your phone is seen by the software. I don't even get the little green box to show my phone is connected.
Only sign I get from connecting to pc is the sound of connection and the data transfer are available as I can see and surf my sd cards on pc side.
I am a bit busy lately so I'll mess about with it when I get time.

I ordered a different brand mainboard with a different chipset that will be here tomorrow. Hopefully it fixes the issue. If it dose I'll try to RMA this ASUS board and then sell it. Things were intermittent with the Pixel 2XL I had at the time I built this PC but I brushed it off as a problem with the phone. We will see what happens tomorrow.
Hey guys....i had the "failed" message too and fixed it by changing the com port number to com port 1 in my experience i've seen times where phone software will only work on "low" com port numbers....Try that...the basics of the steps are to open device manager on pc with phone connected in download mode (to see the modem device to change its com port), in device manager locate the modem and click Advanced tab then Advanced Port Settings and change the port number to 1 or 2.
After that reboot both devices Pc and reboot phone to download mode.
Has worked for me with Note 7 and Note 8 when faced with same error in Odin.

Thanks for the the tip. I was able to change the port but it still fails. I'm out of ideas at this point. If I do need to use Odin my wife's laptop works fine for now.
I wonder if it's got something to do with one of the bios settings...

First off I was wrong, it was not my mainboard. I did end up replacing it yesterday to no avail so now the new board is on it's way back to Newegg . I tried again this morning with my PC after flashing back to 7.1 and back to Oreo via the laptop. The first time failed with the same cable and files from the laptop. The second time it finally worked on my PC. The thing I tried different was using the USB 3.1 port with a USB 3.0 to USB C from my old Pixel phone. Download mode ended up on com 17 but everything flashed good. The only thing I really did different was try the last cable I had. I already tried the same port along with the many others on this machine with every other cable including the original besides the one that now works. Go figure . Anyway thank you all for the help, I do appreciate it.

That's too funny. I'm glad it worked out for you too and it didn't cost you $40. It's all good.
I have that problem with ryzen cpu.
Recently I noticed that my MI A2 couldn't connect to PC in MTP to backup some photos. This didn't happened before because I was successfully flash Havoc OS and did backup photos several times ago.
I also tried to connect my phone while in TWRP but it didn't detected in Windows. I checked Device Manager while trying to connect the phone to PC there is no Android Phone device popped up like usual.
What I have tried:
- Re-flash the ROM (didn't work)
- Change the cable (didn't work even with the original cable included with the phone)
- Change to other PC (didn't work)
- Enable USB debugging (didn't work)
Additional Note:
- MIA2 in HavocOS 2.8 latest build [Android Pie]
- Windows 10 Build 1903 latest update
- Xiaomi Driver is installed as I frequently flashing my phone.
- Somehow Headphone still working using Type-C Adapter to 3.5mm
UPDATE (5/1/2021)
Hi All,
Just want to give you quick update on what happened to my MI A2 at the moment.
After looking for a fix in several month and no solution found at all, I bought a new port connector.
I tried to swapped the port myself but the problem still exist with the new port.
I even tried to use port connector for Redmi 6X (its similar but have a slight different) and yet the problem still there.
My final conclusion that this problem may be located on its mainboard. Now I have change my phone to Mi 9T Pro and put the MI A2 on my desk drawer. The phone still works and charging normally but I can't use it for work because I need it to able connect to PC.
I had the same issue with stock pie, replacing the usb sub-board didn't solve anything, I'm still looking for a solution.

I just noticed this recently. The weird part is the headphone still works using adapter type-C to 3.5mm so I doubt it was physical problem with the port more like software thing.
same too

I suspect it may have something to do with the firmware but I haven't find any solution for this. Hope somebody can give me some suggestion about it.

i got same issue, its after update with build v10.0.13. before that version usb working fine, when i attach usb cable its can show usb option. now its only show grey (all disable). i think its bug in rom
I had this issue as well but after trying other ports it worked for me. The strange thing is that, the previous known failed ports will always not allow me to use MTP after PC reboots.
My PC is a Ryzen build if that of any help. I do not face this issue with my laptop which is an Intel build.

I think it is worth trying to connect USB OTG and see if it works. I am curious about it.
It may also be possible that your ROM or maybe something along the way have made this issue. But hey this is just a guess. I am just as clueless [emoji853]
Maybe i would try
• Flash stock partitions except boot & system
• Format Data
• Revert back to stock (not really a [desirable] solution)

I can't do flash at moment because I need to make backup in case of failure. This is my daily driver phone so there is important messages, photos etc.

Slightly off-topic, does locking the BL and flash the stock ROM enough for the warranty to be "valid"?
does anybody using custom kernel have this issue ? I'm thinking to flash Hex kernel might solve the issue

Did you already clean your usb port?
You can carefully do that with a toothpick or something.
Sounds a little silly, but really there could be a lot of dirt in there. Resolved many connection and charging issues that way already.

Hi thanks for the suggestion but the port look clean to me. I borrowed my brother Pocophone charger somehow it keeps on off with the charge, but when i used mine its fine
It is not a hardware issue it is a kernel issue...upon boot a "chargeonlymode" file is created in sbin folder... I am a rookie at this but after a month of digging, 2 mia2's and 4 charger modules later, something is focing our phone into chargeonlymode. If i can find the solution I will post it

I'm thinking to flash Hex Kernel to my phone but I still afraid it will bootloop.
Have you been able to solve the problem?
The same thing happens on my MI MIX 2S.
