Help Not your average USB issue

[ernest101]

Details : CM7 latest nightly with Siyah Kernel v2.6.12

Symptoms : My PC previously recognizes my phone without an issue (with the exception on when i flashed CM9), I then flashed back to CM7 it was working initially, now my PC does not detect/recognize phone (either nothing happens besides charging or states phone is an unknown device, the latter only happens like 1 out of 20 tries, as it is installing the driver SAMSUNG_ANDROID, it says device suddenly disconnected) even in recovery, Odin can't detect phone. Phone still charges as normal. Phone at times (subject to whether PC states the device is unkown) says there is a USB connection, and still maintains it eventhough i have pulled out the USB cable.

I still am able to transfer files to my phone's internal SD via Airdroid.

Remedies tried : Different PC Port, different computers, cleaned registry via CCleaner, reinstalling Kies & drivers, trying a different Rom & Kernel, cleaning phone's USB port.

Any advice guys? what other possible remedies there is? or is this something besides a USB problem?

Sounds like hardware issues with your port

Gently clean off the end of your USB cable as well as the charge port on the phone. Try blowing into the port. A certain amount of crap can build up inside it and give USB charge problems
