Problems with charger physical connection may be?
Your cat or wifey plugging off (even slightly) the plug out of the power socket.
Or may be charger cable loose in the mini-USB slot on Universal?
Did the amber charging light also go out?
the htc shows charging but noting happens.
orange light is on
As I've noticed, charging is handled by ROM. When you reset your device it doesn't start until Windows Mobile greeting blue screen is displayed.
If the amber light is on, everything's fine on the physical part.
I suggest you soft reset your device and try charging again -- could be the piece of software responsible for charging hung or went into instable state.

Hi Guys
I have a problem with my TyTN at the moment.
My device is not charging.
Yesterday i put it in my Docking Station and wait a little time.
But Now the Tynt isnt charged.
I think ist a Problem with my TyTN Hardware.
I have all Power Supplys used they i have, but it doesent work.
Can you help me?
Its this a problem with the accu or a fuse on the circuit ?
Sorry for my broken english i hope you understand me.
Regards Patrik Laube
Hello,
first of all, try to soft reset the device.
If it fails, hard reset it.
If it doesn't work, go the service center.
Good luck
The above advice is fine. But you did not say if any of the LEDs are lit.
Do you get the red NO CHARGE LED?
Does your phone operate normally except for not charging?

Hello
My Phone is working fine but i cant charge it with the original HTC adapter.
I must load the accu with a special loader.
USB and Charge dont work....
And i have no warranty I cant send it to my operator.
When i plug in the USB Cable it doesent make everthing.
I think it was a to high voltage on the USB or the USB Ground ( - ) had a electrical Power for a litte moment.
Have you an idea?
Thanks for yur help.
Regards Patrik
I had a similar problem, which was sorted by a new rom, but I ascertained it was software problem when I realised it charged when powered off.

hi,
try this: when your device is connected via usb, tab on the battery icon in the taskbar on you device, go to the register "advanced" and check/uncheck "When Device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the pc"
thats it

I'm having an issue along these lines, also.
My phone has been working fine untill the other night when I tried to charge it via the wall electrical outlet. It will not charge at all, the battery has been drained to nothing and I can't turn it on. The yellowish light doesn't turn on when I plug it in like it used to.
I don't know if this is a battery issue or an issue with the USB connection inside of the phone. On a side note, when it did have power and I tried to connect it to the USB via the PC; it didn't work. The phone was on, but the computer didn't even notice the phone was plugged in. That leads me to believe it would be a connection issue; but I'm not quite sure.
If anyone has anything they can add to this I would appreciate it, thank you.
P.S. Bringing it to a service center is a bit out of the question in the mean time seeing as it was bought on eBay and funds are limited for the time-being.

Hello, I cannot find the "When Device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the pc" in my device. My Rom is WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.20273 cooked by dvha79_ddt.
My HTC TyTN has the sample problem, but i can use the USB to charge normally. It cannot work using my AC adapter Only when the device is open...
About your Battery Issue.
I'll tell you exactly why ur phone isnt charging anymore... If you have been charging it alot on the USB or pretty much any!! charging on the USB u have killed ur battery, never charge your phone on the USB it kinda sucks they should make these phones able to be Sync'd thru USB without a battery cause these batteries should not be powered thru the USB over Time... from syncing to your pc will kill these batteries i have noticed that when u sync this Tytn Ithru USB and the device is at say 70% it charges up to 100% pretty fast i would recommand to you and anyone who reads this dont sync your TYTN or any HTCC phone for to long to the USB Cause it will Trash your batteries Life down the road... Hope this was HELPFUL.
Cheers
Paul

^I'm having the same problem with my herm200. I did the soft reset, hard reset changed ROMs but still the same problem. I don't think it's the usb connector because if it is it wouldn't have been able to charge the phone even if it's turned off. Before I'm able to charge it turned on but it would take a few minutes before the orange led turns on, but when I use the phone or if I receive a text the orange led would turn off it's like the charger disconnects but after a few minutes it would go back again. Now it just wouldn't charge turned on, sometimes it gets worse where it just wouldn't charge on or off.
Now I'm already planning to buy an external battery charger.

Are you using an official 1000mA charger? (Not a 500mA one) 500mA ones work, but they are under-powered and can cause strange behaviour, like not charging whilst turned on or whilst on a call. Similar problems can be found with car-chargers that will not charge until the device is soft reset.
Mike
^no it's not the official charger, I have this usb wall charger called Power Juice (phone and mp3 charger).
Input Voltage: AC100-240V
Output Voltage: 5V
Output Current:1000mAh
Do you think it's because I'm not using the original charger?
fixed my charging problems
The boyfriend told me to try a new cable for my charger so he bought me a 5pin usb cable, tried it at home and it worked! I still need to turn off the screen sometimes but that's ok at least I don't have to turn off the phone anymore. Now my battery charges less than 3 hours.
Hold both SoftKeys and Then press the Power button
Or you can also hold both softkeys and then put your stylus into the reset hole.
answer why it does not charge through the usb
Sorry for the very very late response. Under electrical legislation all hand held electrical devices must be insulated and fused. Some of the chargers that you can purchase are sealed without fuse which indicates that the phone has a fuse contained within its circuitry (or there may be 2 fuses one in each device) .
The problem you have encountered is that you have connected your phone to a computer or mains supply to charge. There has been a surge in the electrical supply either on connection or by un-connecting from these supplies (e.g. connect to the computer as it is booting would see a 65w signal through the USB) and this more often than not blows the fuse which sits on the PCB (printed circuit board) just after the usb connection internally to the phone.
you can either have the fuse fixed for 20/25 gbp or you can purchase a new circuit board or you can use an external charger for the battery. As it is only the power input point that is faulty.
hope this helps
Since we are at this non-charging & battery issue, I would like to ask this question on the D838pro. My battery won't charge even after 24 hours of charging. The red LED blinks thru the whole process. The LED did not turn on to orange or green. It is the battery problem because my spare battery works well. I would like to know what is wrong with the battery as I am willing to strip down the battery. Could it be the battery circuit or wiring that had fired?

Never tried stripping down a battery, some things... well, just don't seem worth it. However as a learning exercise it might be interesting. Without lots of testing on a good battery with a multimeter then I have no clue what the readings should be between all the contacts. (Now there's a little job for you) It is as likely the internal structure of the battery is screwed as it is to be a wiring problem.
If you solve it you can certainly report back here

Long story short after not using my Universal for a while it now has this issue:
Only turns on when plugged into charger
Immediately shuts off when unplugged
When plugged into charger, red charger light is not lit
When plugged into USB, charging light flashes quickly and unit does not power on
I hard reset and no change
Under Settings>Power it shows Main Battery: Unknown
What can I do?
buy a new battery?
Ya that's, of course, what I figured. just making sure this was not a known issue of some sort.
...if the battery I ordered doesn't fix it I'm coming after you for the $2.60 it cost me.
uuu...me so scared
Cheers!
99% it is a battery issue...
Hi all.
I've bought a XDA IIi the XDA shows an orange/red blinking light when charging it trought a USB Cable to PC. According to the manual, it should be an amber solid led when charging it. The only solid led I've seen is a green one on the charger.
I'm available to sync trought ActiveSync, but XDA shows an orange/red blinking light and one post talking about that blinking orange led was caused by a low-power charging, but i use USB Cable to PC.
I always use USB to PC cable and charge my XDA phone.
I have exactly the same problem, any solutions?
Me too, same problem but additional headache no charge via usb nor wall charger. It also blinks on original wall charger also, set off charging also. its frustrating ARRRRGH.
Need solution badly
mine too
mine does it too but only once in awhile and if i soft reset my phone it goes back to charging like i listen to music and its charging and then suddenly the stupid orange light blinks and doesnt charge my phone and its annoying?
anyone have a solution?
The problem might be a near-dead or malfunctioning battery. Using a USB cable to charge does not fully charge a near-dead battery, and sometimes if the battery has completely discharged, the cable will not charge it.
Another solution...
I'm having the same problem... When i plug the usb connector the amber LED turn's on and hold. After some time the LED start to blink. When the led is blinking the battery doesn't charge.
There are some "software based" solution, or a debuging tool???
The orange led is normal that's how it is when it is in charging mode but the blinkink led is becouse of the conection with the phone and the USB try to move the USB in the phone plug it might work cuz it workd for me.
I hope i help'd u guys
What kind of move? Do you think that the problem is a bad electric contact? I guess not... I pluged and unpluged several times...
Well it workd for me becouse if i plug the usb cable to the end it has no connection that's way i move the cable back and forth untill i get the connection.
Blinking amber
I have the same problem on my htc p3300, and when i used batti 2.4 i saw that the battery temperature is 432675.5 etc something fake temerature. This is the reason, why my pda unable to charge my battery. If you set your pda in bootloader mode, it will charge your battery!. After 3 or more times i charged it in bootloader mode somethimes the battery temp sensor works normally, and the charge is working as well. Sometimes not.
Bat you can charge your battery allways in bootloader mode.
Sorry for my English.
Try it!
Good luck!

Hi !
I searched already around the forum, but I didn't find anything for my problem:
Yesterday my device turned off because of low battery (while listening music), then I tried to charge it with the original charger over night. Today in the morning the device was not charged but the amber/organge LED was blinking.
When I put on the charger the red led turns on, after a few seconds the amber led starts blinking then after a few minutes the led turns again red an then again blinking amber and so on ...
I can boot up Windows mobile bu after a few secounds the deivce turns off an then again red led an blinking amber ...
I did a softreset and a hardreset but still no charging.
I tried another battery from a neighbour, the device works fine, but still a blinking amber led (not always-on) when connect on the charger.
Can anybody help me ?
Sorry for my bad english ..
Have you tried using your friend's phone charger?
The problem has been discussed. It is known as the RLOD (Red light of Death) and is reported against many different phones and brands. It is likely a fault in:
1
The phones charging circuit
OR
2
A faulty battery
OR
3 A faulty USB port (bent pin or cracked solder joint)
OR
4
A cracked solder joint between the battery connector and m/board
In my experience it is most likely to be a faulty (stuck) charging circuit.
The following link may be useful, and it is worth persevering. I once had a phone that took several days to get started again:

@gypsygirl: I tried two different chargers which are working fine which another device (xda neo)
@mikechannon:
I think its a problem with the charging circut or the usb port (otherwise the data connection works when connected to the pc).
I tried the battery from my friend with 90 % battery left and put on the charger and ist doesn't start charging, only blinking amber ...
I guess I will buy an external cradle for charging the battery, not the best way, but so i can use the device ...
When there is any solution for a cracked charging circut, i will try it out ...
Thanks for help
Hey guys my phone S6+ has been acting weird recently , I might have been caused by an update or something. :crying:
A) While phone is powered on , I cant charge it via computer or just regular charging methods.
B) I noticed that "USB connected/disconnected" displays in notification while theres nothing connected to it.
C) While phone is on, it gets frequent "charging connect" messages while placed in Samsung wireless charger ( blue light blinks when this happens) , seems to get dc for some reason
D) While phone is off , no complains from wireless charging as its LED status stays blue.
has anybody encountered this "bug" before?
So when wirelessly charging while the phone is on, it continuously stops charging and starts charging again? But when its off, it charges normally?
If you are not, try using the stock cable and charger and see what happens then (for both wireless and wired charging)
