Hey! My phone ran out of battery. And when i'm connecting the charger it wont even turn on.
I have tried to hold down the safe mode combo, different chargers. When i connect it to the pc it says something like "Windows couldnt recognize this device".
Could it be the battery thats broke or is it the phone itself? Dont have spare batteries to test.
Tried a different USB lead?
Yes, tried different chars aswell as different usb ports on my computer.
Might be a problem with the charger input, when im moving around with the charger it makes the "noice" on widows that its connecting. Just weird that it says "not detectable device" on the screen. Any thoughts on this?

If wobbling the phone side of the USB lead around is connecting / disconnecting USB, and different USB leads/chargers don't fix it, then yes, it sounds like the charger port needs replacing

Hello,
I have strange problem, since today I cannot charge my HD while its being on, when I plug in usb charger nothing happens, i tried charging through PC usb port, and nothing happens.
I cannot even establish connection with a pc, don't get 3 choice menu (active sync, hdd, and nothing) on HD when usb is plugged in.
I suspected that the usb port is defected, but when the unit is switched off, it's charging even though there is no amber led on.
It has original rom and radio in it...
Did anybody had similar problem? The phone is under warranty, should I send it for repair?
Thanks in advance.
Very weird. I would definately advise you to send it in for repair. I haven't heard of anything like this before :O.
Good luck!

Hi, I got the exactly same issue as you described today. Have you got it fixed?
Looking forward to your response.
Thanks,
This has already been discussed:
Battery Not Charging
1.Hard Reset after backing up data.
2.Check if SPL/ROM mismatch - if U flashed a custom ROM or SPL.
3.Short circuiting pins in battery compartment of HD after disconnecting of power/USB and removing battery. (Don't short the battery - it may explode).
Try the solutions, if it doesn't work then go for warranty.
Too many ppl seem to have this problem and no one uses search

I did search it before and got 8-9 pages of results. I tried all the approaches but none could fix it. This guy described the exactly the same symptom I have so I really wanted to know how he ended up doing with the issue before I sent it off for warranty.
The problem right now is really on the USB connection, even in the boot loader mode, it couldn't recognize the USB but it could do it just one day before.
Thanks for your reply. I appreciate if you could have some new ideas for me to try.

Have you tried updating your USB drivers?
Have you tried different usb cables?
Some of my usb cables no longer works. I believe my mini usb connector have become slightly looser and I have experienced a cable will charge the phone but won't come up with any options.
Wotth a shot.
The USB driver seems ok since I used the USB connection to flash ROMs and SPLs the day before without any problem.
As for the cables, I tried 5 or 6 total including the stock one but it didn't help.
As stated before, the only time the phone is charging is when I turn it off completely and it charges fairly quickly. However, the bottom (close to the USB end) part of the phone is very hot during the charge. If I turn it on or put it in standby mode, there is no charge or ActiveSync activity.
I have a similar problem.. My phone charges when I plug it in. But I am not presented with any options and ActiveSync doesn´t recognise the device..
same problem here
I am in the same situation. I flashed back the stock ROM, but with no USB, I am unable to put 6.5 back on....any advice is appreciated.
I sent the bad phone (Telstra T8285) back to the seller (an AUS ebayer) and he nicely sent me back a new phone but the story didn't end here. The second phone worked for one day until I plugged in my usb universal car charger. Damn, the exactly same problem happened again at the very moment I pushed in the usb connector. Now I know what the issue has been. I frankly told the seller what happened and he told me what their repair guy found about my first phone, that the fault was from reverse polarity of power supply. I was very surprised because I have been using the same car charger for my previous 3 PDA phones w/o any issues and it's still working for those devices. What's special about the Touch HD?! Does USB have different polarity specs?
Anyhow the seller said he can replace it again but I need to pay the return shipping this time.
What is baffling me is that the phone can still charge when it's off completely but can't when it's on. Does it look like hardware or software problem? Also the USB can't be recognized in the bootloader mode but it could before being faulted by the charger. Does anyone have experience on faulted connector and is there a fix besides replacing the entire motherboard?
Your help and suggestion is much appreciated. Thanks!
The Advanced config Utility has an option for "USB Charging" maybe you could install it and see if the option says yes?
also me... now i figured out what the real problem
i used my old miniusb car charger about one full day before and the same problem start with me with slight different which is charge if i keep it plug in long time...(start charging after 5 min.)
i'm really lucky by not completly dameged
this issued must be listed and get real answer from HTC compeny if the mini usb for hd is different
Got a slight problem with my HD2, hoping theres a reset or something for this, but for some reason my HD2 wont charge or sync anymore, I can charge the battery in an external charger and pop it in and it works fine, but I can't charge it in the phone, or connect the phone via USB to my computer anymore, even in the bootloader red green blue white screen USB does not come up anymore
Anyone had this issue before?

Are you sure the option [ Setting/About Phone/Battery/ When phone is on,..] un select?
cheer!
that option has not been selected, thought I went in and TICKED the box, then turned the phone off and still not even the orange light next to the speaker came on to indicate charging so I went back into settings and UNTICKED it again.
This is not just a problem when plugged into the computer, this is a problem when plugged into the standard wall charger that was shipped with the phone.

So far, it can not be the problem with software or sth like that
when the phone is off, all is hardware control and it will charge when you connect the charger (if everything working fine)
So, I think:
1st : you try with another cable ( may be problem here)
2nd: the problem with the USB port ( can you self repair? may be just some ease solder action, sth lose inside)
3rd: mainboard problem *_*
Hopefuly the problem is cable issue
Tried the same cable with another HD2, the other HD2 charged fine (theres 3 at my office)
Tried 2 different cables with MY HD2, same problem
Tried differed wall chargers, usb plugs, computers, car charger... all the same, no charging
Hooray Main board problem
My phone just stopped connecting to my computer over USB. I went to update Fission to 1.2.1 and got stuck at trying to actually connect my phone to the computer. USB debugging is enabled and SetCPU is setting the USB charge profile, but I don't get either of the notifications I'm used to, and my computer doesn't register that I plugged it in. Anyone else run into this?
About phone states that the battery is discharging as well. Bad cable? Charges just fine over the other charger I have (dedicated wall charger, so I can't swap cables).

Sometimes its something simple. Are you trying to access your SD card? Make sure your USB sync is on USB Storage.
I get this problem as well. If I reboot my phone a few times it seems to start working again.
Yep, sure enough, after a second reboot it works fine. Thanks.

That was the problem, it never even gave me that option. just didn't register that it was plugged in at all.

Always try a reboot when something goes wrong. Id say 75% of the time it will fix your problem.
Might or might not be related, but...I just recently got a Droid 2 to "play with" and noticed that the internal memory can't be read by Astro File Manager or the stock "File Manager". When I plug the phone to my Mac I can only mount the SD card. I'm still looking at older threads but I figure I ask here just in case.
Hi there,
The phone in question is a Galaxy S i9000 with the latest CM10 (same problem occurred with CM9 and another rom, not based on CM I believe).
First of all, it never shows any signs on the phone that it's charging. However, when connected to a PC, it does charge (it doesn't look like it at first glance, but the battery icon fills up). When connected to a wall charger, nothing happens. It does not charge. I also can't connect it to the PC in order to transfer files etc. Just charge it.
I cleaned the usb socket carefully, but that did not help. I actually think it isn't a hardware problem, because this problem has sort of been coming and going during the last few days, and as I've said it charges fine via the PC.
I've tried 3 different roms, but no luck. Also tried different cables and wall chargers obviously..
Your help will be much appreciated!

Apparently over time the USB slots tend to get damaged due to constant usage, had this problem with a china made charger ( shows charging but never charges) and still lately even USB cables seems to need some replugging or slide movements to get connection. For insight , try the cleaning method.
Hey all,
I've been having issues with battery drain for the past couple of months. I've tried flashing the stock ROM 3-4 times and I still have the same issue.
The strange things is, now when I connect my phone to a computer, it doesn't recognize it, it only charges. I do not even see the USB configuration pop up to choose mtp. When I try to change it from the developer options, I'm only able to select mtp or ptp but none of it makes any difference. The phone doesn't even get detected.

Problem is fixed. Issue may be due to faulty cable or usb port.
Try selecting "connected devices" in settings then make your choice.
I'm facing same issue since I installed the Gcam by using the non root method and now I'm stuck with Unlocked Bootloader and PC is not recognising my device and is just charging it. I have also tried installing drivers manually but it didn't helped. I'm on 8.1 now and the problem is since the May Update.

Can you try adjusting the USB cable in your phone? Like pull it out a Lil bit while it's still connected or tilt it upward or downwards. Helped me

This is directly connected to your other posts on battery drain, if you are having to do this you have a damaged USB port and explains exactly why you experience that USB OTG wakelock, the damaged USB port is causing the phone to think an OTG device is connected and it keeps looking for it.

Won't a damaged USB port mean my phone would have charging issues too?

Either way, what you are having to do is not normal, if it happens with more than one cable then it must be the port, take it to a service centre and get it fixed.
If it fixes the USB wakelock is another question but it's a bit of a coincidence you are getting a bad connection on the USB and also have a USB related wakelock.
