I had purchased this mini2440 board from China, after delivery i found that i am unable to attach any usb device with the mini2440, my keyboard lights blinked on regular intervals and there was no mouse detection nor any usb device :( i tried to flash every OS accompanied but all failed. On close inspection i found that there is no connection on the board for usb connector's D+ and further more there is no connection strip in the connector itself :(. I am unable to connect any usb device. And i am unable to replace the connector as i haven't such an equipment to do the job. Any Suggestions ? regards
Faulty USB :(
You mean there are connections missing in the physical USB connector. Most unusual! Either you have to return the board or buy another connector and replace it. Probably one of the easier bits to replace but you may want to get someone with the right experience to do it for you.
yeah! the actual pin is missing :( I will try to replace the connector by getting some help from my friends :) but it is unlikely that FriendlyArm is neglecting the QC, may they take this thing serious. I also bought a GT2440 which is much more cheap but lacking such a non QC thing ;)
