[Q] Problem with connecting LG P970 to PC - LG Optimus Black

Hello people
I'm new here, in terms of asking questions and seeking help
I have the LG Optimus P970
A few days ago I made ​​the update to ICS, and by proceeding with this page, hackmyandroid.com/optimus-black-p970-official-ics-update/3299
After that, not impossible to connect the phone to a PC, even the software update mode, it can not recognize, anyway to connect it just throws a slow charging.
Is there someone who knows what it is.
I'd love to go back to the old software, but there is no way to detect it pc
Sorry for my bad english
Thanks in advance

I forgot to say, before the update, and my computer still recognize the phone, connecting it over sony usb cable, now it is no longer recognized by the Sony USB cable, and I do not have original LG USB cable.
Perhaps this is the reason why a computer will not recognize the phone

I have the original cable, but still the same problem.
I have all drivers installed, I can transfer files between the phone and the pc, I can use the LG suite,
But I can't see my phone on the ADB console, I can't use smartflashtool cause the phone isn't recoginized.

yesterday I tried with lg cable, and wall charger, in both cases, said slow charging the battery, I tried on three different computers, I tried to reinstall the drivers, like the software blocked communication with the phone, just charge the battery.
If there was a way to put the software through SD card, it might solve the problem.
even the software update mode, the computer does not see the phone

Bro! For the softwaretool like smartflash, You need to boot into download mode i.e., You need to switch off the phone, plug in the USB cable connected to the PC and instantly press the volume up button. Then the tool will recognise Your phone. Try it and check once!

I tried it, nothing happens,
I go to download mode, but computer does not recognize it again
behaves as if the port is destroyed

Try to boot your PC with disabled driver signatures, or use a 32bit windows system.
try entering download-mode the following way:
disconnect your phone from pc
remove battery
press and hold Vol-up
connect the usb-cable (still without battery)
Now the phone should be detected as a serial-cable device an you can use the smart flash tool.

would have to be sound,
no sound when I connect the phone to the PC

Solved my problem.
Seems like windows automatically installs driver to the phone, but it partially works.
Unistall all drivers for the phone, or try on a new computer.
Plug the phone and cancel the driver search by windows
Install drivers for LG (unplug the phone before)
Turn it off
Plug the cable and enter download mode
And there is the phone recognized on smartflashtool.
I'm flashing a new one right now, thank you.

You do not understand the problem
there's no sign, no sound when I connect the phone to a computer, any computer, drivers were or were not.
As if something in the phone blocked communication between the PC and phone

Connection Problem with Mackay 2.999
Hey Guys,
first of all, sorry for my not so good English
I'am at Mackay 2.999 with last Kernel of his build and can't connect the Phone to the Computer.
It only install the LGE Mobile Composite USB Device, the LGE Mobile USB Serial Port and the LGE Mobile USB Modem on connecting to the Workstation.
I had test it on many Computers but the Problem is all the same: I can't get on my Memory or ADB.
I also had testet all modes under the setting point (MTP/PTP/mass storage device) and with debbuging on and off.
On my Workstation is the Last Version of ADB (1.0.31) installed.
Did anyone know the problem?

Did no one know a result to this problem

Hmmm my PC also can't read my storage what I did is go to cwm and plugged in usb cable and pressed mount storage it seems to solve my problem. I also did a cache and dalvik cache wipe.

Hey, I have found the result to this problem. You must flash another Baseband. Use from Nooby the V30 Baseband and it is solved.

Computer won't recognise O2X in APX-mode

Hi, i'm trying to root my stock LG Optimus 2X v20d Gingerbread with this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1327599
I'm unable to connect to the computer in APX-mode. I tried connecting to the CPU at the front and the back (port on the motherboard) and whenever i tried to connect my Optimus 2X, nothing happens when i pressed both vol up+down when connecting to computer. I've been disconnecting and connecting the USB device over and over again but to no avail. Tried switching out the USB cables also did not work. No prompt to install the drivers appeared. I'm also unable to find any APX-related devices in Device Manager.
I have tried to list hidden devices in Device Manager to check if there's any APX-related drivers too, but still, to no avail.
I'm really out of ideas here. Can anyone help?
[EDIT] To add-on, i previously used MIUI before reverting back to stock froyo and then upgraded to stock gingerbread via LG's update tool. The reason is, my computer won't detect my MIUI in USB storage mode, but i remember that my MIUI'd Optimus 2X did connect to the computer as APX-mode before.
Did you remove the battery first? Won't work unless you do.

Yes i did. I took out everything (battery, sdcard, simcard).

This should mean that the APX-driver already is installed, so in theory you should be able to skip step 2.
If however there's no "NVIDIA USB Boot-recovery driver for Mobile devices"-device visible then indeed APX-mode is not recognized.
Just to make sure you can try to do it on another computer and see if that registers an unknown device. If it does not, then well, something is broken.
Problem solved, rooted!
Woah, i nearly gave up until i decided to gave one last try to root this phone today. It worked!
Turns out that the connecting at the front works too (well, at least for me). This time, i only took out the battery (left the simcard/sdcard) in the phone and connected the USB cable to the O2X, and a pop up on APX appeared!

LG Optimus black P970 USB Bricked

Please can someone help me, I have an LG P970 but the USB port seems to be bricked. The phone charges when connected to the computer but nothing else. When connecting the phone to the computer, the computer does not see the phone and the phone does not come up with any usb connection mode.
For this reason I rooted my phone and updated it to the latest version of Zeus rom, but this didn't fix the problem. The phone still just charges on the computer but that's all it does.
I think the phone USB drivers are faulty or need resetting. Is there any software APK I can download to fix my phone.
Thanks for any help.

lol.Man.You reboot intro recovery -> mount and storage -mount usb(you don't unmount).
You must have the phone conected to pc via usb.Then you will able to acces your sd card
To me it seems more like a driver issue more than your phone usb not working, try installing the latest drivers as DaemonOnx said

The problem is that when I go into '>> mounts and storage' the only option available to me is - unmount. There is no 'mount usb option'
By default I select unmount - to which as you say nothing happens.
Happy to try further options if you have any?

You most likely have problem with your pc LG drivers.
Download drivers by finding the link for LG driver on this page: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1448803

Hi thanks for this. However, the link to the usb drivers is broken. I have installed the usb drivers from the lg website and I know they work fine because I have now tried connect a friend's LG optimus black to my computer and the computer and phone both recognise each other. So I know it's not the usb cable or usb drivers on the PC. I have also installed the LG usb drivers on my laptop and spare computer, however again I have the same problem - phone only charges.
When this problem initially occured about a year ago I sent the phone back to LG and they did some sort of software refresh, which solved the connection problem for a few months, but then things went back to the way they were. I then thought it may be a PC issue so I downloaded drivers and connected my phone to the laptop and everything worked well. However, again, a few weeks later, things reverted back to the same problem. The phone only charges on both PC and laptop now.
Hope you can understand my frustration.

LG service center? you've pretty much tried all I would've
Last time I took the phone there, I was told it might have been the phone port software corrupted. Whatever that mean. If I can't find a fix to this I will need to somehow unroot the phone and try to get it back in its unrooted state to LG (not sure if that is possible) else they probably won't fix it.
I'll keep looking,
thanks for your help.
You are using the the proper usb cord. I know I have a couple. The one will charge only.
Yes I am using original cables, I have three of them. They all work on my Friend's OB but not on mine. I am convinced it's a phone software issue. This has happened with three different computers - when you first install LG software on the computer, the phone connects okay for a few weeks and then loses connection, and I can never get it connected again.
When LG refreshed the phone software for me the phone worked properly for a little while and then reverted back to charging mode only.
I need a way of reinstalling the USB software or port software onto the phone itself via some type of APK if such a thing exists.
Maybe a developer here can develop one???
hey man
if you have disabled the "android platform usb modem" in peripherals manager, enable it first (phone must be plugged)

this means it must be the result of an intervention by a third party thing, by yourself, or another program. If you have a kind of a software which manages ports or consumption (on phone as well as on Win), uninstall them, then uninstall all LG drivers, reboot, then reinstall them. if that doesn't solve your issue, you may have to reinstall windows. that's radical, but it should do it
Try connecting the usb while doing pressure between the LG logo on screen and the back of the phone, like squeezing something . I had this issue and it was an internal connector issue....
Check if you hear the "tada" sound in windows or any message about a new device.

Hi, thanks for this, I'm not sure what you mean by "disabled the "android platform usb modem" in peripherals manager". I am using XP. I have had a look to see if there is any software remotely associated with port consumption etc and have uninstalled these and also reinstalled LG drivers. But situation is still the same.
Please note: I have an LG GT540 and this connects fine to the computer. I have also connected another LG optimus black and this also connects fine to the computer. On the basis of deduction, it must be a phone issue, somehow interacts with the computer fine and then fails after a little while. Also I haven't installed anything on the phone itself which might manage consumption or port. The computer has a usb host controller but not sure that means anything useful.
I do agree and have feeling that if I reinstall windows I bet the phone would start working again, possibly again for a few months. This means I reinstall windows on my pc and laptop and hope it all resolves without actually getting to the bottom of the problem.
What I need is another laptop to try this on. If I try another computer or laptop and it recognises the phone. What do I make of everything??? Any ideas.
ps also tried holding pinching usb lg cable as suggested but nothing different.
Thanks for all your efforts.
Further update to this, I installed LG drivers on a fresh dell laptop. Again nothing happened, the phone only charges. I am even more convinced that phone software is corrupt. How do I reinitialise phone USB software?? If there is such a thing.

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:

PC won't detect the device.

After hours the device is active (i9000t) the pc will detect it. However, when I try to get to download mode to flash another ROM, the pc won't detect it.
After I turn it on again, the pc still won't detect it. I'll have to wait a few hours before it will be detectable again.
The device is on stock ROM, not rooted.
Can anyone help me? I have all the drivers...
Thank you :]

I think ur's usb is wrong
I have same problem, but phone does't detects only on PC (or notebook) with Win 8 64bit. I tryed other computer (win 8 64 bit), other cable, installed Sams drivers, Kies - nothing helps. But if i connect phone to PC or notebook with Win7 - it's ok, no problem. That's interesting problem with Win 8. It's was ok about 1-2 weeks ago on both my PC and note, and now i have this trouble on both comps...
Phone firmware is CM 10.1/
But my pc detects my note... the problem is when the phone is on download mode.
R: PC won't detect the device.
Have you closed kies? Are you shure that all kies process are closed?

Well I have just recently purchased a i9000t to use the aboard to fix my other one. Turns out I've fixed my original problem and now i can't connect to pc via usb. Only charges. After playing with settings on the phone the pc eventually detects something but it was only on modem and it was unrecognized and drivers wouldn't install.
Anyway after inspecting the usb port on the phone i can see corrosion right down to the soldering on the board where it looks like cookie crumbs.
So anyone having usb detection problems should inspect the USB port.
