Ok, i got an USB dock which won't charge my phone.
I removed the USB connection from my PC and it still didn't charge, i even performed a hard reset without any luck. I bought it 2 days ago, and it does charge when connected to the plug i got with my MDAII. And it also charges when it is connected to USB. The only time it doesn't charge is when there is no USB connection.
Is this normal?
i received a shock yesterday when touching my usb dock, sent it back to repair.
Same **** here with XDA I crandle...
Check your computer if it is grounded, this might be the problem.

hello, i've bought an spv m5000 with usb a broken socket( i knew that..) for 260€...With that socket i can charge the battery anyway but no usb sync.
the problem is that it seems that the crarghing time is tooo long..6 hours...and the charger is recognized just if the pda is turned off.., then i can turn it on and see charging...strange? or it is normal? what are your charging time? thank you
3 hours fairly!!!
Keep in mind that the device charges fairly slower when connected through the pc with a usb cable then with the wallcharger.
Wallcharger (I think about 2 hours)
usb cable to pc, more like 8 hours
Hi, My X1 will not charge when connected to the adapter that came with it, and not when connected to my mini USB hub, which is use to charge other devices.
Needless to say, I have tried different cables and so…
It only charges when connected to a PC directly.
I have tried the different USB-to-PC modes, with no change, I have tried a few ROM’s, with no change.
I would love some input on this…
/a
is the hub a powered hub?
mine is and my x1 charge just fine
if it's not powered then everything connected to the hub share the 500mA max power 1 usb line can provide
which would explain why it dont charge
try and restart it, take out the battery and put it in and try to see if it works then.
It's a powered hub, yes. It "used" to work without problems.
And I have tried rebooting, removing battery, flashing another rom, etc etc, with no luck.
/a
The hub is USB 1.1 or 2.0?
my external harddisk "WD Passport" doesn't work when connected with a usb 1.1 extension, while works great when connected to usb2.0.
[OT]Does X1 charge and work with ANY miniusb cable or just the original SE one?
I can confirm that the mini-USB cable is standard. I currently have 3 (one on the mains unit, one on my home computer and one on my computer in the office) in use and they all work perfectly.
Mine wouldn't charge from the mains yesterday, but it's fine again now. Curious.
mine had some problems with charging in the beginning. but its working now, there is something fishy with the charging, havnt had the time to look at it
It's really strange. I worked great the first two weeks i had the phone, then completly stopped.
Now i can only charge with my PC turned on.
/a
I, also, have noticed some odd charging behaviour.
On occasion, i have noticed the battery life has been very short. It seems to coincide with strange charging results.
Once or twice, now, i have had the phone plugged in to the mains charger, overnight, and it has had less charge in the morning than it had the previous evening.
I am trying to figure out any pattern, but up to now, it evades me.
I'm hoping for a firmware fix, as i have several minor issues with the phone. There was a rumour that a firmware was being readied for a xmas/new year release. Patiently waiting, cos i adore this phone.
Hay,
I got my Touch HD 2 days ago an it was all find an no problem. I've been plugging it in & out of the USB ports all day yesterday on the PC adding thing to it no problem.
I charged it lastnite and only noticed this moring that it didnt charge. I checked and sometimes if I put the USB cabele at a certian angle when its pluged in to the main AC Plug it wont charge, wiggle the cable an it starts to charge.
Thing is when it's plugged in to the USB port on the PC it works fine, no loss of connection.
Could this be a fault in the mains plug?
If so can I buy a new one or are the 3rd party Ebay ones safe?
Thanks
So, i've tried charging my phone via computer twice now and every morning i do, i wake up with an all but dead device. While it says it's charging, it doesn't seem to do anything more than simply keep the device at minimal operational levels of energy. Anyone else experiencing this???
older computers and charging through a hub will cause this.
with my focus, it takes about 3 hours to charge fully using the computer or about 2 hour to charge using the included charger.
This happened to me last night
I have now had my phone 6 days. Each night, I have charged it by plugging into my computers USB port, so that I can sync that days podcasts. On each night, it has fully charged by the time I wake up in the morning.
This morning, I unplug the phone from the USB cable, and I notice that I only have one bar on the battery meter. I checked the USB cable where it plugs into the computer, and it appeared OK. I unplugged the USB cable from the computer, attached it to the wall plug adapter, and plugged it into the wall outlet. After about an hour, it looks like it has charged a bar or so.
So, maybe I just didn't insert the plug very well. Maybe. Crap.
Most PCs turn off the USB port during sleep. If that happens, your phone battery will be drained by the PC instead of charging.
Newer laptops now carry USB ports that will not turn off during sleep or off for the purpose of charging.

Perhaps, or it is not your fault and simply a bad cable.
ive had it for a month and a half and now its doing this, plug in the charger to the tablet and nothing. ive tried with different outlets aswell ive checked my power adapter to see if its one of the effected ones but mine was a pre assembled one. ive also restarted the tablet with no luck. time to call asus?
Do you have another device that charges by usb, that you could plug in to see if it sees anything for power? Not sure on the usb pinout for our chargers, but if someone knows, you could use a voltmeter to probe it and see if it has any output.
k got it charging now, hooked it up to my pc with the usb cord to see if the cord or the socket is shot, still connected to my pc....but it reinstalled device drivers as if i never used it on my pc. i turned usb debugging on then off, then i unplugged it and put the cable back into the power adapter and its charging
this is concerning, seems like a usb driver issue that effects the port not sure if i should call asus and do something about it
Sorry to bring this up but I started noticing this today too. I've had mine for about a month and everything's been fine. I noticed that the battery was in the 30s so I plugged it in via the a/c adapter and neither my battery widget nor the system battery icon change to the "charging state". I shut the device off to see if it would charge quicker and left it off for what must have been an hour and the battery has only increased by about 7%. I'm timing it now to see how long it takes.
This happened to me this morning. I couldn't get the tablet or the dock to charge. The dock was at 3% and the tablet at around 75%. Neither would charge either singly or together. I tried using a normal 5v USB charger for a few minutes, but without success. Then I fiddled with the charger and uncoupled the 3 pin UK adaptor. It then started charging. I'm not sure if it was coincidence or not, but at the moment it's working.
B50K tablet and B50K dock.
I have a B50 also running the newest firmware via Revolver 1.1.1, I just booted up my TF after an hour of it being off and connected to the A/C outlet to see how much it had charged. It increased 2% in the past 70 minutes. Something's Fishy here.
did u guys try method of hookin to your pc, then turn on usb debugging.
i havnt had any issues recharging since this thread was made
I connected it to the computer a few times and USB Debugging was already on, I just turned it off and I'll try and connect it again but I'm currently backing up stuff with CWM.
Edit: I just cycled USB Debugging a few times while it was connected to my PC. XP (virtualized through Arch Linux) recognized it each time, but still no change in the charging status. I'm going to unroot and go back to the stock 3.1 to see if it's a software or hardware problem.
Edit: seems to be a hardware problem considering I reflashed it back to stock (unrooted) and it's still doing it. Awesome.
Same problem here. All of a sudden I didn't see any status from the dock battery (dual battery widget). Tablet charges just fine, but the dock won't charge. even left it connected to charger overnight but the dock led just keeps blinking orange (/red). I'm afraid the dock will have to go RMA.
Just got an email back from Asus and they told me to fill out an RMA. It'd be nice if I got one out of the B70 batch as a return
edit: sadly, that didn't fix it. I re-rooted, let the battery drain down until it turned off and wouldn't turn back on, then let it charge for 2 hours. I turned it back on and the battery was at 5%
