Hello I own a Redmi Note 10 Pro which has been an trouble ever since the warranty ended.
Occasionally, without any signs or any particular reason,the touch screen completely stops working and becomes unresponsive, effectively making the phone unusable. Now, in the past, a factory reset worked and miraculously made the touchscreen work again. This time, after 4 factory resets and multiple other attempts to go into safe mode, fast boot etc., the touch screen still shows no life.
Now it seems I have 2 steps left before losing hope on this phone.
1: I buy a on-the-go USB 3.0 to USB C adapter which would let me connect a mouse to the phone, only problem being that I am unsure whether it would work, since the phone is currently completely not working and is in the starter page of the firmware install. I would also not be able to select whether I want the USB to allow access for the mouse etc.
2: I can also try to flash the ROM using an USB from the PC to the phone, although I believe this is impossible since I cannot grant access to do so since I cannot tap anything on the phone.
Does anyone have any ideas?

Edit: It looks like this is a hardware issue and I'll likely try to get it replaced via insurance since I cannot revert to stock using Odin. It is impossible to revert without using Odin right? Thanks to all who read!
To start, I just want to state that I've searched and searched for answers/information on this (not just on XDA forums either) and I haven't found a similar issue - my sincere apologies if I missed it.
Quick "this post is way too long to read" Summary:
1. Phone will not charge
2. Phone will recognize PC connection via USB but with no functionality
3. PC will not recognize phone
4. All details on what I've done so far below
Friday 3/4/11 - I used a USB car charger (link below) to charge my Captivate with a USB cable known to be working (had worked on my Captivate before, works on my brother's Captivate). If you're asking why I used that charger... well I got it for free with my E-71. I'll never use it again. Anyway later that night I tried to charge my phone on my official AT&T A/C charger but nothing happened - the phone acted like no USB was inserted.

Sorry for the bootleg link, this certainly isn't spam but I'm not allowed to post links yet.
Since that date, my Captivate won't charge via AC power cord. My PC won't recognize it either, but here's the weird part - my phone recognizes when it's connected to the PC via USB. For example, I can connect the phone to the PC and it will state "USB connected" on the Android pull-down (top) menu. Since I have mass storage chosen as the default, it will give me the option to send or receive files from the PC from the same menu. However, if I attempt to actually take that option, the pop-up menu which allows you to mount your memory cards does not come up. In addition, if I have the phone in USB debugging mode and I connect to my PC, the phone recognizes that as well. The PC does not recognize the phone in any capacity, at any time. No matter what I've done so far it will not charge via A/C.
Background: I've had my phone for a little over 6 months now, I've been running Cognition 2.1.6 since about 3 weeks after I got it - before this problem I haven't done any modifications whatsoever since the first load of Cognition. My PC is Windows 7 Ultimate 64. To rule out a bunch of other things, I've tried to use multiple USB cords that are known to work with a different Captivate and my Captivate prior to this problem (3 to be exact), I've uninstalled and reinstalled all Samsung's drivers on Windows, and I actually reinstalled Cognition using the three button recovery mode. To further rule out external problems, I just put Serendipity on my brother's Captivate using the same USB cord and PC that I'm attempting to use with my phone. He had been using the exact same version of Cognition I was.
I of course tried to revert the phone to stock using ODIN in order to fix the problem. I attempted to use the two button method (hold volume keys and insert data cable from PC with Odin running) but of course since the USB is not working properly that didn't work. It's worth noting that the described method worked perfectly for my brother's Captivate to revert to stock in preparation for installing Serendipity. I attempted to manually unmount and remount my memory cards several times, change USB modes between mass storage, Kies, modem, etc - nothing seems to work. The phone seems to be completely normal except for this USB issue. One last thing that's strange is if the phone is powered off and I have the USB A/C charger plugged into it, I cannot turn it on. When I hold the power button a relatively small spinning circle comes up after a second or two near the top of the screen. It disappears when I release power. If I remove the USB cable and hit power again it powers up completely normally.
Because of all of the above, I'm 99% certain that the issue is with my phone (not from any other external source). My only uncertainty is whether this is a USB hardware issue or a software issue where the phone is trapped in some sort of limbo due to being in a quasi-data mode which is causing it not to charge via A/C power and causing the PC not to recognize it. Has anyone had an issue remotely like this? I've come to terms with the sinking feeling that this is a hardware issue and that the only option I'm going to have is for my phone to be accidentally run over by a car (in order to pay my $125 and get a "new" phone under AT&T insurance). If anyone has any suggestions I'll be more than happy to try, maybe we can get this thing fixed!
If you made it this far I'll just say thanks for reading my wall of text and thanks in advance for any advice you have.
Were you able to get this issue resolved? It just started happening to my Captivate earlier today, and I was hoping that a solution had been found.
I haven't been able to get it resolved, I actually just sort of gave up on it and went back to my old phone for now. I have insurance so I'm not totally screwed, but it's not that cool obviously.
Were you able to get anything resolved on your end? If so I'd love to hear how. The one good solution would be a package to restore to stock that you could run through update.zip on a memory card, that isn't available yet is it?
i have this issue as well. I flashed Cognition 4.4 and it ran just fine for a couple weeks and then it began not even recognizing the micro plugged into any power source or the samsung dock! debugging on or off, battery saver apps removed, all that. multiple reboots. nothing. it takes a spell of, if i'm lucky, recognizing it after i eff with it for a few minutes and flukes a decent charge but at night, it usually has a loop cycle charging effect. I can hear the "boop beep" charger plugged in sound over and over throughout the night.
i use the phone in my cars and everywhere with the same problem.
no resolution! HELP!!!
I came across the same problem with USB on ARMANI I9010 after installing Cognition5. The most unpleasant is that i have bought it abroad and there is no possibility to return it
Does any body found the solution?
Hello,
I unlocked my device by using ASUS unlock tool. Everything went well. I also can see the message "Device is unlocked".
Then I tried to connect my tablet with my computer to install TWRP and further a cutom rom, but this is not possible. If I connect my tablet with my PC nothing is happening at all, means tablet is not recognized at all. I'm using Windows 10. Anyway, my mobile phone is recognized. I already tried to set it back to factory settings, flashed the latest Asus ROM, but nothing helped.
The other curios issue is that the tablet is not able to recognize that the battery is charged. LED is lightning and battery is charged, but tablet says power adapter is not connected.
Any idea? Could it be the cable? I already tried to connect the table over the dock, but same behavior. Dock LED is lightning as well.
I'm really frustrated. Hope anybody can help. I really need to establish the connection to my PC to go ahead.
5.11.15 - Update:
I realized that it seems to be an issue with USB. As mentioned above USB to tablet is not working (no PC can recognize it). If I connect the keyboard no USB device will be found. Charging the tablet is also not working, except I connect the power adapter and cable directly. Any idea?
Thank you.
Hi, I am having the exact same issue with my TF701. Were you able to resolve yours?

Duchman or Dutchman? I'm having again exactly the same symptoms. Tried 3 different USB cables too. Dit yóú manage to get this sorted? I know it was 4 years ago but my TF701T is still working properly, for the most part.

That is exactly the same behavior. Best for now is to charge with the device powered down. I'm about to open up mine to doublecheck if the USB connector is seated properly.
Weird thing is that the keyboard also fully works which should not be possible if the USB port on the tablet was malfunctioning right?
I'm having a lot of apps not displaying anything anymore so was going for the KisKatt rom to see if that fixes the lot. Also I see after some time some apps keeping the device awake all the time so battery is always drained when tablet is closed.

My TF701T is sitting disassembled in one of my drawers after an unfinished screen replacement attempt. I did manage to install TWRP on it, however, I don't remember what I did exactly to accomplish that.
I might have used one of those shady rooting apps that I'm not sure if I'm allowed to mention here. Then I probably flashed the TWRP with Flashify. Basically, circumvented having to connect the device to a computer up to the point where I had a working recovery on it.
Don't ask me for the exact steps because I wouldn't be able to remember anyway. I'll lay out a basic plan of action:
1) Find an app that lets you root your device without connecting it to a computer. Be warned, those more often than not come bundled with malware, so exercise caution. I'd back up all the important files and information and do a factory reset before attempting this if I were you.
2) Install Flashify, grant root access, download TWRP zip on your tablet, flash. Do some research on how Flashify works and how to use it before you attempt this.
Good luck, and if anything comes out of this, be sure to come back here and report on what you did in case some other poor soul wants to install a custom recovery on their 7 year old tablet without using a USB cable.
I just had mine crap out for some reason and needed to reformat everything and re-install. Connecting the USB to my PC, the PC makes the connected sound but no drive or anything showed up. I couldn't be bothered to figure out why so I just used adb to put the files on the tablet.
adb push yourfile /sdcard
Hello,
First of all send a greeting to everyone since I am new to the forum.
I explain the problem to see if someone can help me.
I have a xiaomi redmi 4 ( sorry if my phone is not the 4a, but I cant find that model in the menu) with "fake" rom from the Chinese store. I know because the version ends in 0.0.
The problem is that when you connect the phone to the PC it does not do anything, it just charge (previously it worked well and the pc recognized it, also going out in the curtain the options to select load, mtp, etc.
I have tried several things and nothing works.
Probe activating usb debuging, with the app usb settings (which seems to open those options but quickly closes and the screen goes blank) and more different things but nothing worked, still only charging.
In the device manager it does not appear, neither as a connected device or as a connected device but without the drivers (I have the drivers well because before it worked correctly).
It all started when the battery stopped charging correctly, the battery charged very slowly. With the ampere app you can see that the charhe was very weak, no more than 100mah. Clean the usb port, probe with other cables and chargers, other pc but nothing to charge faster as usual.
Then I decided to restore the phone to factory but continued the same, charging very slow.
Later I decided to put a global rom using miflash with mode edl ( the bootloader is closed), but the phone never entered in that mode. Use the technique of power + vol + and vol- and I got it right. In the device manager I recognized it correctly (with the correct name that usually say in the guides for this type of operations), but miflash told me it was not connected.
Also use the adb commands (also recognized the mobile without problems, leaving the id of the device, but when using the abd reboot command, but the phone do not entering in edl mode, the phone restarted normarlly, even with some .bat that does the same thing also restarts in normal mode instead of edl.
For all of this operations the pc always detect the phone correctly, only the charge was extremely slow.
My surprise came when a few days ago I tried to remove the fake rom of the Chinese store and put the global, but the pc (mine and others more than probe) did not detect the phone, just charged me.
I think the problem is not physical, because if I plug in a mouse by otg, it works correctly, which makes me think that the data pins are going correctly.
I hope I have given all the detail that is needed in case someone can help me. If not, please tell me what else I can contribute.
Many thanks in advance to those who can help and greetings.
PD: sorry for my english
If in other computers don´t work, probably its the port that is damaged and you should replace it. You can find some in aliexpress..
Hello,
I accidentally started the Xiaomi ITO test a few weeks ago and touched the screen during calibration.
Since then, the left side of the screen no longer works. I have repeated the ITO test several times, but the calibration is not overwritten.
Therefore, I can currently only use my device with the power cable connected, because then the full function is back.
I have already flashed back to the China ROM and tested several other ROMs. Unfortunately without success. Even in TWRP the problem exists. I thought I could correct the calibration error by disconnecting the battery from the device. Unfortunately this did not help either.
I need tips and help from experienced developers. Thanks a lot!
Hello,
my Mi 9 (stock rom, locked bootloader, never touched anything) recently got into a boot-loop apparently for no reason. After some tinkering it turned on again. Sadly the touch screen does not respond for some reason. The problem is the last backup of the phone is not so recent and I would really like to get all the photos of that phone.
What I already tried:
Connect Mouse and Keyboard via an OTG cable => not recogniced
Letting the battery drain completeley hoping it would reset itself
Fully charging the battery
Connect ADB => cannot authorize without touch
Connect Xiaomi PC Sync software => does not connect probably needs authorization as well
Stock Recovery does not allow to wipe caches
Last resort was to open up the phone and disconnect the battery and reconnect after a couple of minutes (touch did not work before that)
What is not working:
Touch
Face Unlock
USB OTG Peripherals
USB connection to download photos to PC
What had happened:
Phone randomly went into a boot-loop aparently for no reason
At first booting into Safe Mode worked but not for long
Draing the battery completely did not and fully recharging it => Now the phone turns on again in normal mode as well as Safe Mode
Assuming the initial issue was related to a very weak battery
Battery was already weak before everything happened
Now battery only holds charge for a couple of hours in standby
Sadly after booting the things mentioned above did not work anymore
Maybe failing to boot so often has done anything to the software or the cache on the device
Also storage was already pretty full before everything happened, might play into it
Tried many things, last resort was to open the phone and disconnect the battery for a few minutes => did not work
Touch malfunctioned already before that, so it is unlikely that I caused any hardware damage
What i am looking for:
To get my pictures back, I know if I had done a proper backup we would not be in that situation.
Have not yet tried:
I don't know if there is a way to flash the stock ROM via fastboot or if this could help
Could this help?
Can it be done when the bootloader is locked?
Can it be done without loosing data, screen lock pattern is enabled on the phone.
If you have any more ideas please let me know, I already tried everything I could think of and nothing worked.
Thank you a lot
Also I read something about EDL and EDL Pins, would this help me to download the data partition or clear the cache? Would clearing the cache help? Could the data partition be somehow decrypted outside of the phone?
