dreamflasher 120 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 Status 1 day ago: Phone is able to connect to two different computers (both with Windows and Linux), and three different dables, USB debugging working, phone shows that it's connected to a computer Now: Restarted PCs and phone multiple times, but the phone does not show anymore that it's connected to a computer, also USB debugging not working. On no combination of cables, computers and OSs. But it's charging. Does anybody have any idea? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dreamflasher 120 Posted February 6, 2022 Author Share Posted February 6, 2022 Okay, I found the problem, if I press one of the cables tightly in it works, but when I move it a little bit it stops working. So it's a problem of the USB-C port of the phone. Can I change the port by myself? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

EskeRahn 5,350 Posted February 6, 2022 Share Posted February 6, 2022 After air, I would try a soft brush, before trying a toothpick, and only as a last resort try a needle or other metal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If you feel sure it isn't just pocket lint or similar, you could try asking them if they got it in stock. I have no idea how easy/hard the tiny usb-board itself is to service if it is say a broken soldering. I do not recall anyone in the forum discussing that. (could be a memory glitch though) 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I don't know if I will receive te promised USB board in the near future and I can only charge my Pro1 if I try to force cable in a direction and pray to remain there to complete the charging process till the morning... it does not always happen to charge over night because of that... So yes, it would be good to see some close photos of the USB connector without the need of disassembling the phone only to see it... 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Kaali 76 Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Had this similar problem some time ago, the cable connecting the usb board to the mainboard had loose connection. Opened up the phone and fixed it, has worked since. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fxtecish 39 Posted February 13, 2022 Share Posted February 13, 2022 How did you fix it? By soldering or with by other means? It could be good to have here on the forum a section for different fixes with pictures. Then it could become a habit that when people fix something they could report and show what they fixed and how. I am still waiting to get my first Fxtec device and have to say I am a bit alert what I have got to know on this forum about the problems with Oses or hardware. The lack of support from team is expected but maybe hard to accept. For me it is just awesome Chen had the courage to make this even possible. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will suggest that someone make (and maintain) a FAQ post with relevant links in the "How to" section. I could then 'pin' it to the main-list, and it should contain links to the three currently 'pinned' on how to open up the display, how to setup qwertZ and how to flash. (and these three post could then be unpinned) 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

No soldering, just pressed the connector back to the socket firmly. Probably had come little bit loose when i dropped the phone or something. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
