Re: Upgrading OTA-9 manually via local server

 

I’ve had similar problems for many weeks with Mako. Something about the way USB works isn’t right. I’m using the Mako with three machines:

Core i7 desktop running xenial. When I connect the USB cable, the phone immediately shows that it has power, and ubuntu notices the new device and mounts it. Thereafter, it’s up and down like a yoyo every few seconds: disconnect, connect, disconnect, connect, …, indefinitely.

On my Macbook Pro running vivid, wily, and xenial in Fusion VMs, I can connect, but adb no longer transfers files larger than about 1.5 MB. Smaller files than this work fine with adb push. Anything larger hangs the USB connection completely. For example, if I adb push of a large file in one terminal and have a phablet-shell running in another terminal, both terminals hang and no longer respond to SIGINT. I have to unplug the USB cable to get things back to life.

On my Chromebook, things work better, but are unreliable. It often takes three or four tries to flash the phone. When it fails, it fails because adb hangs.

It’s definitely not the cable, I’ve tried with several. I guess it could be my phone’s USB port. Anyone know how I could find out whether that’s the case?

Thanks,

Michi.
