Problem with my AC charger

Very strange problem , can not charge my Atom with the AC charger, the stupid charger charges my Imate JAMin, and JAMin charger wont charge my Atom,
The funny thing is it charges fine through pc usb :shock:
any ideas.

i have exactly the same problem, did u end up figuring it out?? its driving me nuts

I had this issue also, this time with a ghetto charger (that comes with a port for plugging in your USB cables). The ghetto charger works on my Mini, but the Atom stops after 5 seconds. Only the charger that came with the Atom works on it.
Unfortunately, there's no solution for this. Quanta apparently had this safety-locked just like Motorola did their RAZR series.

found out that motorola v3 razor charger could actually charge your atom, thx for your help

LOL... I KNEW IT, I KNEW IT. THE EXACT SAME CHARGER LOCK MECHANISM. >_>
Really? Does it charge as fast as the original charger? Can the original charger be used on a MotoRAZR? This is a very nice hack, tho not quite as useful as some might hope. <_<

im not sure if it would work the other way around, i cant see why not.
charging speed is about the same, but don't quote me on that one
cheers

to cause a short circuit on the plug pins,haha,it will be ok

hi all,
i am encountering another problem... opposite from wats happening to u all. my usb is not charging my atom exec when the battery is 35% or lower...
does anyone encounter the same problem?

I have a tytn and had the same problem, can charge and sync thru usb but no luck with the ac-charger. Thou yesterday i noticed if i leave it on in the ac-charger long enough it actually starts charging. Weird but i've tried and it really worked the cpl of times i tried. It takes about a minute or two before the led turn orange.

Same problem here. It charges on USB but not on my original AC charger. Has anyone already found the reason for this?

We have generic and "öther brand" branded chargers here in the Philippines. I've experienced the same problems both with the AC and Car Chargers here until I used a voltage regulator for the AC charger and a motorola car charger. Those that worked with my xda2 doesn't work with my atom. My advise to those with the same problem is to either buy a motorola AC or Car Charger whichever you need or use a voltage regulator in tandem with your original AC charger. If your PC USB doesn't charge while syncing with your PC, format your PC. Chances are, it's too cluttered already.
Hope this helps

how come it says in the manual that while charging the atom, it will display an amber/orange light?mine is displaying a red light?and i am encountering the same problem when charging. it charges for 5seconds and it will stop. the battery indicator displays a full bar.but it is not actually charged.can someone post the specification of the original charger that came with the package?i just bought a new charger here in singapore since i left my charger in the philippines.and the original charger that i got is for atom stealth. will it be okay?

Happens to me ocasionally.
Try a softreset and it will charge again.

Happens to me all the time...
Can it be connected to the fact that some applications crash and leave the system unstable ?

I did soft and hard reset, but it won't charge. Now the phone is dead, i am in the process of arranging funeral with HTC. I email HTC, have not heard from them yet.

May your P3600 rest in peace...and be quickly replaced (maybe only the battery pack...)

My phone is acting very weird too. I charged it up, left it overnight. Turned it on in the morning, it was at 90%, after about 3 minutes of wifi, it was at 80%.

Charing - need 500mah
Make sure that you're using the right charger - I was using accessories from my Dopod 818 Pro - the P3600 would say it was charing, but wasn't actually -because we need a 500mah instead of 250mah (or some such).

my trinity stop charging too...
the headset works fine but it doesn't charge and don't sync too... i've tried hard reset but still not charge...
how do you fix that?
Have to send it to assistence?

I've the same problem... help!!!!!!!

Did anyone get anywhere with this? Been a while and no updates.
My GF uses my old Orange SPV M700 as a GPS in the car, and plays solitaire.
It started to drain really quickly then it refused to charge at all.
I figured the battery had died, so bought a cheap compatible to check it was that.
The cheap compatible came 80% charged, but after two hours of charging, while switched on, battery was showing 70%
I've tried both the original HTC charger and the motorola charger that came with my Bluetooth headset.
Neither seem to work, does it sound like a soft reset might help, or does it sound like the phone is kippered.
I'm not an Orange customer any more (They wouldn't do me a good deal on an Omnia), and it is only as a SatNav/PDA rather than phone, so while it would be no mad loss if is dead, SWMBOd doesn't want to spend out on anything to replace it.

I problem with mine was the mainboard, and it had to be replaced.
If yours still has warranty, deliver it to a repair center.
If not, you have to find a way to charge the battery on another device...

I guess I'm looking for an external battery cradle and then and keeping a spare battery charged.
I think the phone is nearly 2 years old and out of contract

Just a quick update.
Both the motorola and htc USB chargers I have are both full 550miliamp usb chargers.
When plugged in the led goes from solid red, to flashing orange, temporarily to solid orange then a low battery warning, might be fine for 5 minutes or half an hour, then cycles back to solid red and arround again.

please help with my MDA Vario..

i have an MDA Vario which doesn't work anymore.
it won't turn on or do anything .
it was working fine before i let the battery run out completely, as i forgot to charge it.
i don't have a proper charger, instead i was using a USB cable for a digital camera which had the same plug that fit in the Vario. it used to charge it when the phone was switched on.
does anyone know how to fix this?
do i have to buy a new charger or a new battery?
thanks.

Search here for the 9volt battery trick. There used to be an issue with older ROMs on like the Cingular 8125 where it wouldn't charge once the battery dropped to a certain point. There was a trick to "jump start" the battery with a 9v battery. Then it would charge again via USB or wall charger.
Once you do get it charged, you probably need to make sure you are on your carrier's latest ROM.
Note that while Razr chargers also use the mini-USB plug, I've heard some of the off brand Razr chargers will not give a good charge to a Wizard.

I used to have a hp pda and left it in the draw for a few months and couldnt charge mine, i had to buy a new battery.
Dont get a Razr charger it wont work.

Another possibility since the battery is completely dead is to plug in a charger (really should be a wall charger and not USB from a computer) and just let it sit for about 5 mins. Then press the on button (with it still connected to the charger) to see if it will turn on. If so it should then charge on up. If it doesn't I'd suspect the battery may be damaged.

thanks for the replies, i'll try the things you said

When you tried the other MDA, did you use the same AC charger? There are posts discussing AC charger failures. It might be that...

it is not the charger...i have the same problem
i have been unable to find the solution though.
I THINK I HAVE THE SAME PHONE!!!!
HIS USERNAME IS THE SAME AS THE EBAY USERNAME!
I WAS SCREWED!

Are you sure it is not a completely dead/defective battery(some of you)? Are you able to power on your phone and use it and it still does not charge? Or is your battery dead and it won't charge? You know the phone has to be on and in WM in order to charge? These phones are known for having their usb/charger port becoming loose and not charging.
Be specific...what have you tried?
Jeff

This might be a possible mobo problem. I have had a similar issues with few wizards. When I changed a new mobo the charging issue has gone and everything runs as they should be.

it is not the battery... I have 3 batteries and two wizards. I have narrowed it down to the mobo. and not the ROM. what sucks is I bought this MDA for the mobo blowing $70.

My dash charge stop working

I bought a Oneplus 6T a year ago. With 1 month of use, I noticed that his dash charge stopped working (charge only at normal speed).
As I have another oneplus at home (OP5) I tested the OP5 charger to know if this was the problem, but it didn't work.
So I tested both chargers on OP5, and both work the dash charge, so the problem is not on the charger nor cable.
I also tried to clean the phone connectors, tried factory reset, but it didnt work...
As my country did not have brand support, they could not help me.
What I want to know, it is there's anything else I can try to do to solve my problem.
If I could figure out that the problem is in the charger coonnector flat, I would import a replacement charge flat. But I'm worried that the problem is not in this piece, how can I find out?
PS: I never dropped my device, and there was never any contact with water or any accident. I don't know why the problem happened
In attach, the scrren of the charge test of the factorymode (original cable and charger)
Thank You!
