N97 mini USB cable connectivity issue

Hello all,
I've tried to connect my N97 mini with the micro USB cable, and it seems not to work. 
When I connect the device, It asks me to pick PC Suite, I choose it, but then, when it tries to install the phone on my laptop, it just doesn't work, and it says that the hardware might not work ok.
I have uninstalled and installed Ovi Suite 2 times, I have resetted the phone and it doesn't work.
It worked first with Bluetooth, but now that I try again, it just doesn't work anymore.
Please let me know what I can do.
Thank you!
Luisa

Same issue here. Reset phone, cleaned and reinstalled all software but no success.
I tried the cable with different nokia models and it works fine, it is definitely a N97 mini issue.
Waiting for a firmware update to get this really basic function

    You need to get the cable to restore the ATV to factory settings, following the procedure here.
    USB mini cables are available from many different sources; often even from local stores like CVS or Walgreens. They are inexpensive, as little as a few dollars online & around $5 from some local discount stores.

  • My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode

    My iPhone 4s is stuck on a black screen that shows a USB cable connecting to iTunes. The phone will not turn on and the iTunes logo as I described only shows up when I plug the phone into the charger or my computer. I have tried the reset in restore mode as well as the DFU? mode and it still will not work. I have the latest version of iTunes on my Mac. My error code was 2002. I also tried it on my laptop (windows 8.1) and none of the above worked. My error code on my laptop was 02. The phone is through Verizon and it has absolutely no damage. It was working fine up until this and I have been trying to fix it for 2 days. Please help! I am unsure of what version the phone was currently running on before this because I have another iphone that's my primary phone and have not used this one in about a month. I do not believe it was updated to IOS 7.

    Your iPhone is in recoverty mode at the moment so to possibly get it back up and running you would need to do a restore as you have been trying. Follow the steps in the article below for the specific error messages you have been receiving. If after following all steps the issue remains book an appointment at a local Apple Retail Store to have the iPhone evaluated.

    I was updating my iPhone 4S to the iOS 7 system. During update my phone froze. It's stuck on insert USB cable connect to itunes screen. I've already tried turning my phone off holding Home key while inserting my cord into phone and nothing worked. I've tried DFU mode and that wont work either. What the heck do I do now? So annoyed with this.

    I've also restarted my computer and still nothing.

  • Can n86 charge using usb cable connected to power ...

    I know that nokia n86 is chargeable via usb cable connected to the computer/laptop. However, I don't always have a laptop or computer with me while I'm travelling so I was wondering, is it possible to charge my n86 using a usb cable connected to a power socket using a usb adapter like those used to charge mp3 players if I didn't bring the charger with me? will it spoil the phone?
    Thanks in advance.

    should work fine as long as it is an official USB device. I have a Nokia USB charger and that is rated at 5V/1200mA and I have used a 3rd party USB charger and that has worked also. As I understand it you need something with at least 5V/500mA. I think my 3rd party one was about 600mA

  • N97 mini USB issues

    Hello
    I have never used the USB port before but now when I need it it doesn't work.It just charges the phone but it doesn't connect to the PC
    I have tested 3 phones(N900,HTC Desire HD and my N97m), 2 USB cables(CA-101 and an unknown cable) 2 PCs and 1 PS2(PlayStation2)
    N900 and HTC successfully connect to the first PC(the PC I'm writing now) with both of the cables
    N900 successfully connects to the second PC with the unknown cable
    My N97m is unable to connect to the first PC with both of the cables but it charges normally.
    Also it is unable to connect to the second PC with the unknown cable but it charges normally.
    BUT when I connect it with the unknow cable to the PS2 it connects and asks me for connection type(OVI,Mass Storage..)!
    I tried to
    1.Restart the phone
    2.Soft,Hard & Master reset
    3.Different USB ports
    4.Turning off the phone, plug the cable(starts charging) and turn on the phone
    5.Installing/Uninstalling/Reinstalling Nokia Suite and Nokia PC Suite
    and nothing seems to work
    Can anyone help me please?

    I don't know how much help I can be, but this is one of the more interesting problems I've seen. Since you are seeing the Ovi Suite/Mass Storage/etc. menu with the PS2, we know it does work. It would seem there's some strange phone <-> Windows interplay going on. A couple suggestions:
    1) Is the OS on both PC's the same? If you haven't tested on a non-Vista/7 box, that could be revealing.
    2) Have you tested on either PC *without* any Nokia software installed? You don't need software for Mass Storage mode. The memory card will appear as any removable drive. Remove the Nokia software, download and run PC Suite Cleaner (do a web search), reboot, then test with the unknown cable. (Good job with the various tests, BTW! )
    3) While it shouldn't ever affect the appearance of the menu, there should be some small programs installed on the phone (even after a hard reset) designed to facilitate the features of Ovi/Nokia Suite. While I don't know exactly what gets installed for 5th Edition phones, you can safely remove Service Controllers and anything called "...DS Plugin". Reboot and when the phone <-> Windows interaction finally gets working, Nokia Suite will reinstall these pieces.
    4) Keep in mind there's an entire Nokia Suite forum here devoted to issues with that software package.
    I hope that helps!
    Thanks for the reply!
    Now after the resets when I plug-in the cable
    PC:No USB icon on top of the screen| no conn.menu| Settings->Connectivity->USB shows 'Not connected'
    PS2:No USB icon on top of the screen| no conn.menu| Settings->Connectivity->USB shows the mode I have chosen. (! In mass storage mode theme changes to default)
    1. The first PC(this PC) is running Win7 with latest updates the other PC I described is running XP. I have tested on Linux and the result is...the same :\
    2. On this PC, first, I tried when no Suite was installed then I thought this is the problem and I installed it but again no result
    On the other PC(XP) i tried only without the Suite
    3. I dont know what should I search for but I dont have any 'service controllers' nor 'DS plugin'
    4.I think the problem is the phone not the PCs/cables and thats why I made a new thread

    No, if you have that picture it means the update went wrong and you need to restore via iTunes.

  • Connecting 6300 with an ordinary mini USB cable

    i can access my 6300 in "data storage" mode through an ordinary USB cable. after installing pc-suite(6.83), the software cannot detect my cable and i'm unable to use my phone in "Nokia Mode". Why does this problem occur?? Do I need a DKU-2 cable to access my phone through the pc-suite software?? plz help.

    OTG = On-the-Go..
    BTW refer to the Package Contents here .. Didn't you get the CA-179 cable ? or you are talking about the CA-157 that is shown here ?

  • Cabled connection issue but wireless fine?

    I wonder if there's a known issue and resolution to an issue I'm having with a client computer? The PC has been on a cable connection to the Hub v3 for around one year without any issues but it's suddenly blocking the PC via cable to the router. I've tried resetting the hub and also received a new one in the post which also did the same. I did have an issue with "netware" on the PC and other connections in there so for surety I've re-installed Windows XP on the PC and it works fine on my own LAN via cable ruling out the suspected failing LAN card. It also has Kaspersky Internet security 2012 on and nothing else. A clean registry
    I haven't re-installed the BT software as I know it's not needed and for me either the hub has blocked the PC's LAN card mac address somehow or is failing? The only thing I haven't tried is the new hub with the new XP installation which I'll do tomorrow when I return the PC.
    I can install a wireless adaptor and it'll work fine as does another PC on the LAN so DHCP is working in the router, just not for cables lol
    Any ideas as to how I resolve this are welcome?
    TIA
    Andy

    Thanks for moving and replying Molly I appreciate the time it takes as a forum owner/admin and can see the volume of posts you reply too so barely get time to read them but I'm a professional computer technician and never use (buggy) ISP given CD's for just that reason but if you'd fully read my post you'd have seen that I did say I hadn't installed the software. I've also got lot's of coasters though
    The LAN card is an intel pro 10/100 about 6-7 years old (xp media centre) and has always worked like I said then suddenly it has an issue but only with the HH3? My LAN is on VM 100mb (naturally ) and the PC works great here so it has to be a clash between the LAN card and the HH3?
    I updated the Sony Viao VGC -RC204 drivers (intel) and picked up on a security issue where the drivers are vulnerable to hacks but installing the driver did nothing to improve it. I haven't even run TCP optimizer in case I corrupt my clean registry & LAN drivers so I know the PC is clean & cannot be blamed for the problem.
    I installed an ethernet to USB adapter to try & it worked straight away so that led me to believe the LAN card was failing but using it on my LAN it's fine! Maybe the HH3 has had a f/w update that knocks the intel drivers off or blocks them in the f/wall?
    If I put the new HH3 in it should be fine & connect straight away yes? The server login details are preset in the HH3 then it's posted out? Or do I need to login & put them in manually as the new HH3 gives the same error, lol
    I could use the ethernet to usb adaptor or w/l adaptor OR even try a new PCI LAN card in to see if it works but I'd rather get to the bottom of the problem as I don't like to be beaten
    Anyone else seen this issue or can link to it ?
    NOTE: My topic was moved to "the lounge" but on the forum index page there's no description of the forum category which is how I missed it so maybe an admin could put a decsription in there for us? and save a lot of post moves maybe
