The USB is not working -- it was working for a while and suddenly just stopped. Computer does not even recognize the USB cable with radio when I plug it in?? Anyone else run into this problem?

Hi,
What is your OS version?
Have you check if the "connected" icon was on or off?
73's
Have you tried restarting the computer and the radio? Do you have another cable you can try?
USB Issue
I am using Windows 8.1 and I have restarted radio and computer and tried different computers and different cables. I suspect the USB port is damaged or disabled? Everything else on the radio works perfect just cant get it to be recognized by any computer I use?

USB Issue
I cannot connect to PUTTY because when I plug in the device and go to Device Manager there is no device being detected so no COM port assignment.

I have found that some micro-usb connectors do not work and appear very loose - a slight upward pressure on the lead where it comes out of the micro-usb plug can persuade it to make decent contact.
I found, through trial and error, some leads with micro-usb plugs are a much firmer fit in the DV1 than others.. I am not saying this is your problem but if the plug does not feel firm in the DV1 socket, try an alternative lead/connector - it may solve the problem.

Thanks for Response
I did try to put moderate pressure on the USB connection to see if it was a bad connection - cold solder joint - or some issue like that but still no response/connection between the radio and computer.

Well it was worth a tryu and didn't cost anything!

I would think that a $5 data signal indicator would be helpful to anyone using USB products.
