Broken Mini USB

I just had this same problem with my Cruise. It is only 4 months old and I sent to HTC for warranty and they wanted to charge 400 to replace the motherboard and usb plug. They claimed it was abused. They need their heads examined.

HTC has bad customer service and warranty.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] doctah:
Hi Brunner, you might want to try http://www.mobilephonerepairs.co.uk/home.asp . They are based in London, UK and sending to/from Germany was no problem for me. Just mail to info@turnonyourmobile.com, explain your issue and ask for a repair price quote.

So far I have only bought a replacement LCD from them and not used their repair service - but will do so next week. Anyway, they were friendly and supportive, and the LCD arrived in good condition and well packaged. Overall a very good impression.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] rumensat:
i have some expirience with HTC repair, and can say that the most problems in HTC are in main board - very unstable connections with chips and pcb.

try to tense unit left and right side while usb is connected.

one more - switch off unit (take off battery and pull in) and connect adapter - i am sure in this mode charging will go - this is separate chip doing this automaticly ,but when processor running can sw it off. Stay 1-2 hours and battery will go full.
[Touch Cruise ROM Development] brunner:
thank you for your replies... I'll try to contatct the london adress (big thank to doctah).

to romensat: thank also for your , but it is so, that I am not able to connect the usb cable at all, because the little plastic peace into the connector is broken out an some pins are damaged.

regards

[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] essen33:
Hi people, am currently waiting for bootloader unlock, am trying to sort things out and see how am gonna use my new rooted phone Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro, well phone is great, but am coming from old era where rounded corners and notch was not a thing, i still prefeer screens with rectangle shape, and am willing to sacriface lower portion of screen up to ending of rounded corner and same above till the camera module, so i can have nice rectangular screen

Now my question is how to?

How to change screen size? (how to measure where to start and end)

If by software rounded corners still exist how to remove them?

Am planing to flash xiaomi.eu rom and magisk root.

Thank you great people and community.
[Redmi Note 9 Pro (International Model) General and] OrGiMaSu:
in miui there is option to hide notch

there are 3 options:

1. don't hide notch

2. hide notch without moving statusbar

3. hide notch and move status bar

but all of them still have rounded corners. I guess magisk module will do the job

[Samsung Galaxy Note 10+ Questions & Answers] $@chin:
Hello Everyone,

I am using a Samsung note 10 plus device and while using I encountered the problem of network losing multiple times in between and now my device is not even showing IMEI, when I press *#06# it shows " SM-976b is unsupported on shown IMEI", I cannot make calls and cannot use Samsung members app to generate error report as well.

IMEI : 358782100403022

SM-976BZKADTM

Serial number: RFCM800TJTJ

This happened many times in past but after few days it again got normal.

I tried resetting the phone, changing the SIM card and Turning ON the phone in safe mode to check if any application is causing this issue, but I found nothing.

Help me to fix this problem
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
I've ran into the following problem:

came home and try to open my phone, code doesn't work to unlock screen. Unless I'm going insane was sure the code was correct twice.

Restart phone, stuck on enjoy.now for a long time, goes to alcatel logo, then goes into an Android Recovery message saying "can't load Android system. Your data may be corrupt."

Then 2 options: try again or Factory data reset.

I've managed to find the following possible solution: https://glebovdev.medium.com/how-to-fix-cant-load-android-system-issue-8a5b0ead5a15

..but I can't even get to recovery screen with more than 2 options. It would be a huge pain if I have to factory reset.. should it be possible to get to recovery mode on my phone as well?

Is there any possible way to get the data off the phone (mainly Google Authenticator to which I'm not sure I have the codes anymore)?

Thanks
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
It could be that your device is trying to boot to the inactive slot, verify in fastboot mode which slot is marked as active and try to boot either in A and/or in B slot.
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
Idk if I'm doing something wrong but holding volume up or down as it restarts, the only boot screen I get is:

Android Recovery

TCL/5003d_EEEA/Curie

8.1.0/OPM2.171019.012/5003d_ALWE_EEA_V3

user/release-keys

(aforementioned error)

Try again

Factory data reset

fastboot mode should show other options right?
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
Well, fastboot is to interact through fastboot commands and you can check from there the slot that is active with

fastboot getvar all

and you see something like slot_active xx
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
When I run adb devices in powershell it does not show any devices connected (although the device does show as connected in Windows device management).

In device management it does show as "MTP USB device".

Is this likely to be a driver issue?
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
Device has to be power on to respond to adb commands and from what you were telling your device is bricked..
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
It's technically powered on but yes still does nothing but bootloop and try again/factory reset screen. There's no possible other way to get to Android recovery mode when the volume down+power option doesn't seem to be working?
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
Device has to be strongly and consistently on so adb commands can work, they can't work while in bootloop so forget it this way.

What you can try is tipically pwr + vol. up and pwr + vol. dwn, one of them will take you to fastboot mode where you can give it a try to what I pointed out in previous outputs.
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
OK some progress.. apparently you have to let go of power button and volume up right as the alcatel logo appears, the timing seems to matter. I'm now able to see Android recovery with more options at least so will try from there.

Thanks again for taking time to reply.
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] BrickAlcatel:
I've tried

fastboot getvar all

this results in <waiting for any device>

adb devices still shows no list of devices even though in Device Manager it shows as "Fastboot gadget" under other devices

I've downloaded drivers from Alcatel website in case it's a driver issue but on the list of model numbers during setup mine (5003D_EEA according to recovery screen) doesn't show.

I do see a bunch of websites allegedly offering these specific drivers but assume it's risky to download from anywhere other than Alcatel official site.
[Alcatel 1 Questions & Answers] SubwayChamp:
It seems to be a reliable site https://www.androidusbdrivers.com/alcatel-1-usb-drivers/ it offers the 4 different drivers needed covering all the modes that your device can enter to.

I would recommend mainly two things:

- Uninstall/remove firstly all the drivers that you don't use, it could be something for an old android/tablet that you don't use anymore.

- Don't swap the cable data from/for other device, any of them have its own type of connection, use the same proper cable data for only one device.

From there the typical first step in fastboot is just typing

fastboot devices

], if the message is "waiting for device" then it's not working.

hi im having the exact same problem, but cant get out of this. Could somebody maybe help me? How did you eventually fixed it? kindregards
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Untouchab1e:
This has happened to me twice the last hour now.. the qwerty keyboard just stops responding.. No lights come on, and nothing happens when I press the keys.. Soft resetting the device usually helps, but shortly after it happened again!

Help?! *cries*

EDIT: It now just stops responding while im texting.. and then after a while it works again.. happens often*
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] flgm:
Sounds like a hardware issue. In your case i would contact the htc support/service.
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] Untouchab1e:
I had "Advanced COnfigurator 3.2" installed, and thought I may have bumped into a setting or something.. resetted everything to default, rebooted and uninstalled configurator.. hoping it will work!

Somehow, I always end up with a phone that has an issue!

EDIT: No, it still stops.. maybe a hard reset is needed?!
[Touch Pro, Fuze General] BoldFace:
A hard reset worked for me. I also didn't touch any of the power saving options. Keyboard does not die on me anymore. I'll wait and see though
[General Questions and Answers] captain.tinker:
I've noticed some unusual things regarding this Samsung Galaxy S10 I purchased from Amazon. I specifically wanted an AT&T branded phone so I could use the AT&T features. My old S7 International Version was unable to do so. I was first sent an unlocked phone, and it didn't work with the AT&T features. I sent it back and they sent me back what seemed to be an AT&T branded phone, because it shows the AT&T logo on boot and can use the features. I checked the IMEI number on one of those phone checker sites and it came up showing a completely different model and even processor phone than what I've got! I'm supposed to have a standard S10 (g973U) with a snapdragon chip, it shows an S10+ g975U with an exynos chip. AT&T shows it as such as well on the website when I look at my bill and profile. Looking at the phone itself it reports as a g973u though. I've heard that there are instances where phones might be blacklisted or stolen and have their IMEI's changed to hide what they are, and I'm afraid that this might be one of those. I was hoping to use it as a trade in with a Samsung Pre-Owned program to go up to an S20, but I don't want to get stuck with a bill and lose my phone if it turns out that that is the case. Is there a way to know for sure if that has happened with this phone? If so, I want to find a way to get my money back from the Amazon seller...
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
You within a certain period of time can return the phone to Amazon without stating reasons and get the purchase amount refunded : at least that's possible if you bought phone within the territory of the EU, you're EU citizien.
[General Questions and Answers] Austinredstoner:
Yes he can return it after purchase but it has to be in the same condition as when purchase this means if he brought it new than he used it which means well it's now used and not new than they won't accept return because it's not in same condition as when purchased
[General Questions and Answers] captain_tinker:
It was used when I purchased it. I'm interested in finding out if my phone is legitimate, or if it's been messed with somehow and isn't what they claimed it was. Why does it show up on multiple different IMEI checking websites as an S10+ exynos when it's supposed to be an S10 snapdragon? Either the database is incorrect, or someone flashed a different IMEI onto a stolen or blacklisted phone in order to make it work. I want to know if it's a simple mistake of the IMEI database being incorrect, or if it's a malicious issue where someone sold me a stolen phone. If it was, then I don't care about the condition of the phone for returning, I will pursue a return with Amazon on grounds of being sold something that wasn't what they advertised.
[General Questions and Answers] Deleted member 1890170:
The global IMEI database gets fed by OEM when a phone gets placed on the market and before it gets connected to any network.
[General Questions and Answers] ananjaser1211:
Device info such as CSC, baseband info and code name can all be faked, your best bet is to check the download mode (which is by turning of the phone, connecting it to your computer, and holding the volume down and bixby keys) , to exit download mode just hold the volume down and power buttons together for ~10 - 15 seconds

download mode will tell you the real model name of the device, U variants are snapdragon, and they are not easily unlockable, but it could be a reused IMEI from another device (those are written with specialty tools like chimera or z3box) and that can be problematic depending on the country. afaik 2 phones with the same imei cant be on the same network and they get black listed

if your model is F variant, or N then it is the exynos model, and not really AT&T, in that case you can return it just fine
[General Questions and Answers] captain_tinker:
Well, I've done some more digging. I realized that the IMEI was also printed on the back of the phone, albeit in microscopic print, but it does match what it shows in the software, so I guess that's good. That's probably hard to fake? I also downloaded this app to do some more digging: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vndnguyen.phoneinfo&hl=en It shows what it should be, and also a refurbish check shows it's original AT&T. So I guess it's ok. I don't know why multiple IMEI check websites would show the wrong information if that is supposed to come from the manufacturer. I guess if it's a fake, it's a darn good one.
[General Questions and Answers] captain.tinker:
Oh, also did the download screen trick, it didn't actually show the model number. It does show Knox is not tripped and it says it's official samsung. So I guess that means it's all ok?View attachment 5350789

Hello i dont know where else to ask this but i have been facing this bug for a while now and it's really annoying.

Gmail seems to be causing issues on my phone, i can confirm its not my kernel nor is it rom specific, whenever i launch gmail its very laggy and refreshing the inbox causes it to crash sometimes as well as crashing all of my other open apps(i can tell by fkm which makes the notification dissappear and recent open apps) idk what to do this problem is very recent maybe even with latest gmail update.

I noticed that 2 of my apps reset their settings as in turn some of the features off like in screen dimmer it turns itself off using the toggle and in franco kernel manager it turns the battery monitoring service off

Is there a way to flash the Raphael without Windows, just by booting it into SPL and inserting a microSD with an image on it?

Why I'm asking? What, if a new ROM bricks the device in such way, that ActiveSync will no longer connect to it? RaphaelCustomRUU.exe will not work anymore.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] XL3N7:
If you have HardSPL you can flash from the SD card. I have flashed 6-7 custom roms on my TP and I haven't used the custom RUU for any of them.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Rottis:
I had this problem with ROMeOS v1.04, activesync just did not connect and no programs started, rebooting did not help. I already thought my phone to be brick!

Just press volume down and powerbutton to turn it on (should be off before of course) and you will end in the bootloader, flashing with RaphaelCustomRUU.exe works if the phone is on in bootloader mode and connected to computer. (thank god!)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] Rottis:
Instructions would be nice if provided also....
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I guess im the only one who cannot flash a ROMeOS rom from a SD-Card.

I've tried everything formatted the card to FAT32 renamed the .nbh to RAPHIMG.NBH tried caps and non caps. I even tried to format to regular FAT but still no go.

As you can see in my signature i have flashed Hard-SPL 1.90.OliNex
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] 12aon:
Mine are called RAPHIMG.nbh and they have to be in the root map of your SD, I do this with al the new ROM flashes, because I believe it's faster and you don't have the battery limit (which is there for good reason of course). So root map and there you won't see .nbh in the root map, just RAPHIMG. hope this helps
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
What do you mean with in root map you won't see .nbh? Do i have do delete the extension if so then that has never been clear for me :(
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
You need the nbh file extension. It just won't show if you have "Show File Extensions" turned off. If you use FileExplorer on PPC, you'll see RAPHIMG not RAPHIMG.nbh. (Check the file name in Windows or TotalCommander to be sure).

The file must be on the root of you SD Card and it should work, unless the OliNex HardSPL has some extra options / checks.

Ta

Dave
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I already thought he meant the hide extensions thing but just to be sure :p

I've tried RAPHIMG.nbh but it doesn't work for my device.

I also own a Hermes and just flashed it the SD-Card way with HERMIMG.nbh and that device works perfectly, so it isn't a card problem.

Could it be an Hard-SPL thing then?
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
I've spoken with cmonex about this and there's no reason it shouldn't flash from the SD card. The code is in Olinex 1.90 to do it.

RAPHIMG.NBH on a FAT32 Formated Card and hey presto :)

Ta

Dave
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] vblues:
I just tried it and it works. The file is named 'RAPHIMG.nbh' on the root of my storage card. Booted into bootloader mode and it instantly loads the nbh file.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] faeArai:
Nice to know. So finally I do not have to boot Windows any more ;)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] dabs:
I tried this for the first time just now, hadnt even thought to use the sd card, I usuallly go through all the hassle of using a vm just to flash.

File is named RAPHIMG.nbh on the root of the sd, restart holding vol- and thats it.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
Could it depend on which ROM you flash? Because honestly i only tried to flash ROMeOS with SD-Card. I never tried to flash DCS or something else.

So many people with successful flashes with the SD so i'm almost sure i'm doing something wrong here. :confused::(

I will try again a soon as a newer ROM comes out because i'm a bit tired flashing different ROMs :p

Thanks for all the support.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] dabs:
I was using ROMeOS v1.10. sd card is a sandisk 6gb. Its hard to see what could prevent it from working for you, hopefully something will turn up.

Ishould also note it is considerably faster flashing from sd than over usb.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] XL3N7:
Put your miniSD in a card reader and from Windows, right click it and select format. Choose fat32 and leave the volume label blank. If it automatically adds a name delete it before proceeding with the format. After it's formatted, place your RAPHIMG.nbh on the rott of the card. Enter bootloader by holding volume down and pressing reset and it will find the image file. From there follow the on screen instructions and it will be done in a few minutes.

I had problems too flashing hang.tuah's rom but only 1.05 it would flash but not boot up, i tried through 2 pcs and via flash card.

i couldn't flash by my actual card cause from what I read sdhc isn't necessarily supported in bootloader, so i borrowed a friends 2gb microsd and that worked with flashing.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
Since there is a new version of ROMeOS i'm gonna try it again.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I'm going nuts over here :confused:

I renamed the ruu_signed.nbh to RAPHIMG.nbh and copied it to the root of a FAT32 formatted SanDisk 2GB Ultra II card (non-SDHC) and check it for errors.

When i insert the card and reset while pressing the volume down button to enter the bootloader, the device says "No Image File Found" and just stays in the bootloader :confused:

What am i doing wrong here??? It's no that a big deal because i can flash using the wrapper but it should also flash with the SD-Card.

I'm almost giving up here :p

If there are any more idea's bring em up :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] XL3N7:
Have you formated your card without naming it? Make sure the volume label is left blank, otherwise it won't work. For the record, SDHC cards do work. I'm using my 8GB sandisk for the job.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] monx®:
Thanks for the tips. No wonder I cant flash from my SD :p
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
@XL3N7: I'm absolutely sure that the card has no volume label. I even tried a non Ultra II 2GB SanDisk SD and a 1GB nothing works.

If you can flash from sd hang.tuah please keep me informed because i'm having troubles flashing your roms from sd.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] DaveShaw:
How did you format you card?

Some people have had problems using PPC apps to format thier cards. Formatting from Windows via a Card Reader fixed that.

Ok i've just downloaded DCS v15 and ROMeOS v1.12 and i formatted my card using Toshiba SD Format tool because i own a toshiba laptop so maybe that will make the difference.

I will post the result :)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I did a raw format first with the toshiba tool then i formatted it to FAT32.

I tried the ROMeOS v1.12 first with the same result as before "No Image File Found" yes i renamed it to RAPHIMG.nbh and blanked the volume label.

I'm awaiting the DCS v15 download will post results in a jiffy (slow cable conn. @ work)
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I just tried the DCS v15 rom and still no go "No Image File!"

I will try to reflash Hard-SPL again maybe that helps. :confused:
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] WatskeBart:
I give up i tried everything even after reflashing. :( :confused:

Is there a way to insure/check the flash has made my device superCID? I know i is supposed to be so with 1.90.OliNex but just to check.
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] 12aon:
I think it was already suggested, but the micro SDHC al seem to be able to do it, and since you own a great phone to watch movies on and listen to your musical favorites, the extra storage will come in handy. I own an 8 Gb Card which I bought at Dynabite's. If that won't work (or it's not worth the trouble) you'll probably have to dig in the deepest darkest layers of xda, personally asking the great minds that dwell here... cheers
[Touch Pro, Fuze ROM Development] XL3N7:
Which Toshiba tool? Simply stick your card in a card reader and from your windows desktop right click on it and select format. From there select FAT32 and leave the volume label blank. Since you can flash custom roms, your HardSPL is there, so the problem is either of the card's, your TP or you
