I had a faulty usb port once, fried my one flash disk and the mini usb port on my phone

 

[waynegohl]

do you have to replace these things?

 

[Sheepbot]

Yes, they were completely fried, but I'm not saying this is what happened to you

With my phone, I just went to the place where I bought it and acted as if I didn't know why the usb wasn't working, so they replaced it

I am not a fan of USB hubs - better to cable off the mother, or old school with a PCI card

looks like it might even be the cable.

ok so a different usb cable works on my mp4 but now i cannot see the files in the folders. when i plug the mp4 in i have 2 options one being the internal drive and the other the external drive and you can click on properties and see how full they are but if you actually open these drives there is nothing inside.

whats happening here?

thanks.
