[Q] Lost USB data connectivity to computers.

---

New member here, so please be kind to me

As of this morning after pulling my LG Rev off my wall charger. I go to plug it into my desktop to move some files and what not only to find the phone is not recognizing that I'm hooked to a computer.

Thinking it was a cable issue I swapped between cables and nothing, rebooted, even did the old-battery pull, and still nothing!

However with each cable it acts as if I'm still plugging it into a wall/car charger. Only shows charging and nothing else, the computer doesn't even make a "USB" connected sound, let alone the computer doesn't even see the phone.

Did you reboot the computer and the phone?

I have, let alone tried it out on several computers at home all with the same outcome.

I didn't install any app, other then did a TiB last night prior to putting it on my wall charger(only way to get a good overnight charge vs USB).

I was planning on trying to install the Revolt ROM today. Come to hook it up to my computer this morning, and now this.

I've been having all sorts of odd issues, like the Verizon OTA update doesn't install. Gets about 30% on the updating/unpacking then pops up a {!} and reboots. So at least once a day my phone will reboot for that.

I currently am rooted BTW and i have tried to un-root and even let the update attempt to go, but no avail.

NOTE: I did notice something else just a few min ago, on the stock LG ROM at least. Normally regardless what source Car/wall/usb was being used to charge the phone, It would show both red/green on the LED while charging/charged. Now its only showing green regardless of it being charged/charging.

I think I may just do an exchange from Amazon wireless. Seeing how its within my 30day window yet to do so.

You did change your connection to mass storage when you connected to your computer?

Yeah, played with all the settings and swapping modes.

Just for kicks did a factory reset still nothing.

Curious, is there any way to UN-root w/out the ability to use the USB?

Well I got my new Revo, and it came pre-updated already
And major problems since I've had it, constant reboots, almost always losing connection. WiFi wouldn't stay connected either, even if I'm 5 ft from any router/AP.

And I've tried my best to push back to the pre-update, but no avail!

So I've gotten a hold of Amazon wireless and they are doing an exchange for me, I'm going to jump on board of the HTC TB. Hopefully I'll have a better sailing experience.

BTW, any one want an LG extend battery cheap? lol

usb prob on mine just fixed

omg...I just had a similar problem, except mine popped up on my phone saying that the factory cable is plugged in and can not be used to switch usb modes. I was like...what the frick man...this is the same cable I have always used. I tried alll sorts of crap to no avail. Finally, I reinstalled the lg drivers on my laptop and rebooted both my phone and laptop and voila! It all worked again, using the same factory cable that my phone and laptop just had a so-called problem with. Hope that works for you too...I know how frustrating things can be.

had a very similar issue several days ago. all of a sudden, the phone was no longer recognized. tried everything (different cables, different computers, different operating systems, toggled several different options in settings)......to no avail. had to take it back to best buy....exchanged it for a new revo...everything is good now (including the fact that it was loaded with v4).
