Hey all, i've had the x10 for a couple of months now, today, the phone decided it wouldn't charge, initially when i connected the x10 to my pc, it was detected but couldn't access memory card, now i have a little bit of battery left and my pc wont recognize the phone and wont charge either.
do u guys think its hardware issue? or some software acting up? cheers,
Regards, Harv

well i just got my spv back from the repair station (my usb thing broke off)...they fixed it on however it doesnt charge...i plugged it into the computer...my computer recognises but keeps on saying unknown device..so i dunno what to do with it?....
i was wonderin if i could sell the parts??!!..
does anyone what anything...
Where'd you send it?
Hi,
I've just sent mine to CarPhoneWarehouse and they sent it to HTC in Birmingham - it's taken a long time - I think it's worth it though. Only cost me £45... Maybe try them, don't know how much you spent getting it repaired or if they were the ones who did it. Sometimes it's better to sell it and call it quits but it's just a suggestion.
Cheers,
Will.

Do you get the RED LED showing when you plug in?
Mike
Battery could be SHOT.
no there is not the usual red light

The device should show the red LED when not charging or the battery is not inserted, unless:
1
The charger is blown
2
A component is blown on the device.
As you have tried two chargers I suggest it is a device component and therefore a repair job. As a last thing to try you could try the hard reset key and stylus combination.
Mike
I really dont where i can repair my device ;p
Can people from holland suggest me a repear place in the north?
thnx all in advanced, i will wait one more night
Well after a month of waiting i finally got a new phone!
There was a blown component and the repair compagny of my provider ask me to pay 230 euro's because it was a 'level 3' repair.
But my mobile provider didnt agree with the repair price so finally i didnt had to pay after all!
Windows Mobile 5 is on it So i'm going to flash!
Thnx to all,

Well, good to know we diagnosed it correctly - pleased it's working and happy flashing
Mike
My Opinion
been running through threads all over, just found out that there is no solution, because when a program pushes the unit to wake up from standby it freezes, this program can be weather, alarm, mail, active sync, and even a CALL can cause this, so it's a permanent bug in wm6 and PPC :-(
Hi all,
i have a serious problem with my MDA Vario II (HTC TyTN),
just have this device since 2 weeks, and last week i flashed a rom onto my device, its a nameless windows 6.1 rom...
the flash went perfect, the device worked flawlessly!
the device has been working fine all week, i had it hard reset for like 2 times.
now i did another hard reset, everything seemed to go just fine, battery was 100% device nicely came into the bootloader mode, nicely went resetted, perfectly booted letting me setup the device and calibrate the stylus right after this the device resetted itself and after the windows logo it just went into white screen, i waited this out for like 15 minutes and then i pressed soft reset... this white screen was the last thing i have seen on my screen so far (2 days ago now) the only thing my device does is give me a red led when it is connected to the wall charger or usb and the battery is not in the device
as long as my battery is in the device it does absolutely nothing, no sign of life!! not even a red led!
is there anything i can do about this? or do i need to send it away to t-mobile?
i really hope someone can help me with this one!
cheers ChilleCharlie
ps: normally when i press both the soft keys and the reset it would take me into bootloader mode, this doesnt even work no more!
i have been reading on this forum for 2 days now i just have no idea what this problem could be! can somebody please help me! i think it might be my accupack is that possible for a 2 weeks old phone?
is a herm100/200/300 device capable of booting without a battery in it?
cheers Charlie
ok here comes the test result, i was planning on shipping my phone back to the supplier but instead of this i tested my battery with a electrometer guess what? 0,04 volts are on my lipo pack!! OMG battery sudden death! never had this before in my life! now i know i can fix this battery pack did that before with some years old li ion and some months old lipo's but since i am under warranty i hell yea am gonna make use of it! this pack will be sent back to t-mobile in the meanwhile ill buy my ass a new one so i can use my phone
thanks for everything this website is great even thow i havent had 1 reply yet, thanks to you guys i got wm6.1 and will get it back running now! tytytyty btw i heard something about hardspl beeing more safe? i guess i should flash it onto my device or is that risky to do ?
Sorry, didn't see your post until today. Might not have been able to help anyway.. Glad to hear you sorted that out OK though..
As for Hard SPL, its a must to have on your Hermes before flashing as it will make it possible to recover from a bad flash. Its NOT a guarantee but it is a safety net to help when things can/do go wrong.
Would also suggest using the sd card method for rom flashing as its safer than via pc(Hard SPL takes about 2 secs to upgrade so I do that from the pc BUT you can do this via sd card too).
Welcome and happy flashing...
thank you for that information once i get my device running again it will be the first thing ill install even thow i dont think my problem is rom-related anyway, today my battery has been tested in a different phone, as i thought it was completely dead! also my phone has been tested with another battery... well my phone is completely dead as well! i think it has had a short circuit somewhere inside which would explain why it doesnt do anything with or without battery installed...
i do not know for sure thow.. but thank god i still have my warranty.. althow im not sure about this since my phone wasnt running official firmware.. but i guess that has nothing to do with hardware malfunction now does it? so ill be sending it back to the supplier tommorow damn i cant stand not having this device working
cheers chillecharlie
I know that many of you will tell me to search, which I have with the time that I have had. I am 1000 miles away from home and only hav e use of a motel computer. basically I turned my hd2 off last night: running android from nand, ROM is the NEXUS 2.3 gingerbread build. I left the phone off all night. When woke up this morning my phone will not turn on or respond to anything that I do. When I plug it into the wall outlet it will load android from nand and say everything is great and then it will make it to the HTC screen and then power off and start the cycle again. I allowed it to do this for about a half hour. I can load it into magldr and it will only allow me to do so much. When I try recovery it brings that up and it shows for a few seconds and then power cycles. I am running magldr 1.13 and my radio I remember checking and it being the one everyone recommended more than the others. I did all this work from my windows 7 computer at home and the computer available to me is a windows xp and it won't synch up with it. PLEASE HELP. I leave tomorrow afternoon to head to my next destination that doesn't have a computer available. it would be really great if I could get this fixed so i have a cell phone for the rest of my trip.
update: I was able to get it to power on when i took out my sim card and micro sd card, but that was only once and I obviously had to take the battery out to put the sim card back in and it won't turn back on and is going back to its same old tricks as described before.
I don't know if I mentioned it before but if I pull the usb cable out it turns off instantly, almost like it doesn't recognize that there is a battery.
Tale a look at your battery pins make sure Nome of them arecbend or out of alignment.
the pins looked good. I wiggled them around a little bit and tried it again. and it worked!!! Now how could I go about getting this fixed permanantly so i don't have to worry about this happening again? I bought the phone from craigslist about 3 weeks ago but i believe it is under warranty still. The person told me it was less than a year old and the condition would indicate this.

If it is a T-Mobile HD2 youcwill have contact them and give them the IMEI and maybe the serial number. Tell them you bought it from someone bit it should still be under warranty. The warranty is transferable. And tell them you want to get it replacedcas the battery pins are loose. The only way to fix it through a repair shop is to vet them to replacecthe intuit main boardcascthe battery pins are attachedcto the main board.
If it is not a T-Mobile HD2 you will have to contact HTC.

even if its a Tnobile HD2 it still has warranty with htc themself... My hd2 is from tmobile but i dont talk to them warranty wise
Only had mine 3 weeks and its broken already. I have been using a desktop charger and have not been forcing it in at all, not once, I have always been very gentle inserting it it, anyway it no longer charges, it looks like the connectors have pushed themselves back so they are not flush anymore and thus no longer connecting to charge or sync.
Not happy about this at all, I had my desktop charger for my HD2 for 18 months with no problems at all, this suggest a very weak connector.
!!! BE CAREFUL !!!
Going to call in at Phones4you and see if they will swap it, I don't hold out much hope though.
Wow bad luck man, but really you don't need the F word to express your frustration.

was it an official desktop charger or 3rd party?
DO a factory reset using code *2767*3855#
(please not this will wipe everything including built in memory, so do backup before you proceed. Backup possible by moving content of internal memory to SD card by copy paste in file manager)
I had a problem when my phone stopped charging after I upgraded firmware, It would also launch Connected to computer screen when it wasnt . Thought its dead.
Did factory reset using this code and its working flawlessly ever since. Seems to be some kind of bug which happens out of nowhere as 2 people I know have experienced this after upgrading to KE2.

I was going to ask exactly the same thing...
I think the OP means that the micro usb receptacle has come away from the board and has been pushed back into the body of the phone. I hope this is not going to turn out to be a common problem as it's something that seemed plague to the Nokia N900 and it took ages for Nokia to acknowledge a design/production fault.
great advice, now it wont boot at all, just goes round in circles....
F**cked.....
anyone got any ideas?
Hi, the charger isnt really the issue, i haven't had any problems inserting the phone into the charger, ie no resistance which suggests to me it was week or loose and has gradually pushed it self back over the last 2 weeks since I have had the charger. If thats the case it would have done this with any charger or cable.
Just spoke to phones4you, they are going to exchange it for me, they didnt even grumble after I told them what happened which I thought was odd, heading off now to pick it up.
Will be interesting to see if your wifi is any better on the new phone stoolzo. Maybe you could let us know. Thanks.
good old phones4you
got it already, yes I really have. Phones4you are just round the corner in PC world. Will check my wifi tonight and report back on the other thread.
Please change the thread title. All type of people view xda.

remove and reinsert battery
i had this issue when running custom kernels. somehow doesnt happen with stock.
issue happens like this:
u go to bed while charging
u wake up and the phoneis off or very hot with battery and temperature warning
u reboot and it doesnt reboot, doesn't boot, just goes in circle battery display/reboot cause it doesnt seem to charge neither have enough power to boot.
removing battery + cable then putting both back = it boots again and charge normally

Yeah, did all the usual things, I have bricked phones before and always managed to turn them around but we have no CMR to flash anything from ROOT/SD so when it wouldn't boot after a factory reset I knew I was in trouble
The MHL port being loose was the tell tale sign of a fault as I hadn't misused it at all. When I compared it to my new phone I got today it was defo a little further back, just enough to prevent it connecting.
Good old phones4you, fault report to phone exchange in under an hour, impressive.
Just in case the charger had anything to do with this I am going to get rid, dont think it did but I don't want to risk it.
its this one:
