RPI 3 nousb

Former Member
Former Member over 9 years ago

I recently got a pi 3 with the 7" touch screen. I set it up with berryboot and installed jessie. I got to were I needed to use a keyboard and that is when I found out the usb ports didn't work.

I went through the following link to try to fix it but nothing there helped.

https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=28&t=53832

 

I've tried keyboards and mice from working linux computers, I even tried a powered usb hub and nothing. I've tried running without the touch screen(via ssh) nothing is recognized.

I've tried power supplies from my other pi's with change. Do I need to post dmesg output? Is it possible I got a bum Pi?

    There wasn't anything else plugged in. So, I'm starting to think I got a bad pi. I tried Ubuntu mate and the usb ports didn't work with either.

    The Sony  factory in England builds the raspberry pi's. They test all the pi's before they ship. They have a low "bad device" percentage at testing in the fatory, as well as a low percentage of devices that come back (and turn out to be actually bad). So, chances are high that your raspberry is in good working order. But never say never.

     

    That said. the symptoms you seem to be having could for instance be that your powersupply is not adequate. Where I say powersupply that includes the cable to the pi.

     

    I have an USB hub here that occasionally delivers only 4V on its output. While "out of spec" for the 'pi, it WILL work. But (some) USB devices won't. (Newer pi's run down to below 3V, while the older ones stop working around 4.0V)

     

    So: Check your power-supply-setup. What voltage do you measure on the 5V GPIO pin? Does the red powerled turn on? Does it blink?

    I ordered one of those usb power analyzers. I figure that will be better than trying to hack a usb cable to test for amp and voltage. Once that shows up I'll do some more testing.
