It's terribly slow on USB, but it does work with mine... But it seems the kaiser needs quite some milliamps of current to get charged....: more than the average USb port delivers (hence, that's why only the supplied charger charges fast enough) i guess...
thats weird, mine doesnt even go into charging mode. do you think that the USB charging is spoilt and I should return to get it for an exchange?

Did you check the (new?) option:
Settings/Battery/advanced/" ..."when device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC.
When that one is ticked, no charging.

Can you check:
Settings -> System -> Power -> Advanced :
[ ] When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to PC
ahhh ok this is a new option that i have not seen on other wm6 devices. thanks! yea now it charges. however with the option ticked, it didnt seem to charge even with the device off.
guess i should go exploring all the settings

I have the idea that this is done not to overload USB ports, or to empty a portable's or UMPC battery.
So when I will have this new Shift.............. then I will swtich loading off.

Hi guys,
I must be being slow here - my tytn 2 wont charge via the USB cable when the phone is on which is a total PITA in the car.
Can someone point me at what I am doing wrong...
Thanks
Stuart
there's an option under settings > power > advanced that allows you to turn charging on/off while plugged in and turned on. See if that box is checked, if so, uncheck it.

Does it only do this on your car charger? If so, reboot your phone while it's plugged in and then it will work. My Hermes did the same thing. It has to do with the car charger in that it isn't wired right.

I'm curiuos why you wouldn't let it charge from the USB cable. Is there some logical reason to not have this enabled?

Some users leave their devices plugged in via USB all day whilst sat at their desk and dont want the device on charge the entire time.

One that springs immediately to mind - Because you're travelling, your laptop isn't plugged in to sync or share Internet, and you don't want the PDA sucking the life out of your laptop battery.

ca u sync vith pc?
Did u check in settings/system/power/advanced and the option to not charge the phone while he is turned on?
Does it load when you use an external charger, could be your mini-USB connector is damagad, but also that your PC's USB port does not deliver enough power to charge it, try another PC etc

That is weird. That means its not a hardware related - not damaged usb pin(at least I think). But I dont know what can cause it. U can try hardreset, but only as a last resort.
If I turn GPS and Bluetooth/wifi on, my USB charger wouldn't charge a device also, just because it isn't that powerful. That might be the cause.

Make sure this checkbox is NOT checked:

oops.. sorry for being a smart a**. A poster already suggested this.
Hi All,
I have a problem with my Tytn2 device, It used to charge before when I connect to my laptop, suddenly it stoped doing this, I tried everything I know
from the settings in the power management to doing a hard reset,
and If I use a cradle I have to put the battery directly to the cradle
The car charger is good, and the same with the AC charger
Can any one help me pleeaaase?

Have you tried a different cable from your laptop? The cables are pretty weak can break after extenstive use.
yes I did,
The problem is that the HTC tells me that its charging, and when I check the battery status I find the status charging, while the actuall meter os going down
I even tried another battery, the same issue, says charging, but actually not
so charges from AC and car charger
but not laptop, or a cradle
I tried hard reset
I tried changing cables
I tried another battery
What could it be?
Pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaaase help meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Start --> Settings --> switch from Personal to System --> Power --> switch from Battery to Advanced --> make sure the last square (When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC) is unchecked in order to recharge phone from pc/laptop. Good luck

Excellent first post. This has promise.
I did all of that, It says charging while in fact the battery power is draining, some how like the laptop is drainig power from my HTC, I tried it with two other machines, but the same behavior
Recently my X1 cannot be charged with USB cable through wall outlet & even car charger , but able to charge with USB cable through PC.
Anyone do encounter the same problem?
Well that's a strange one - how long was it connected to the wall?
Without getting into the discussion about volts and amps provided, and amps drawn by the phone, any method should charge.
In terms of speed, I would think the wall would charge fastest (see above), and the USB slowest.
Did the phone show on the top bar, the charging icon when attached to the wall? Or after a period of time there was no increment in the % charge showing??
If the battery was down to 0%, you probably wouldn't see an immediate increase in the % charge. The % charge is orientative, especially at both ends of the scale.

I do agree with you. Charging with wall outlet is faster. Therefore, normally I'm charging my X1 with wall outlet, unless in office, will use PC USB.
Top bar never show charging icon, but once I charge it with PC USB, the charging icon show up immediately.
It seems like no power for the USB when connected to the wall outlet. I've tested with battery removed, plugged in USB cable connected to wall outlet, there is no charging illumination light. I cannot power on it.
I tried to recall, it happened after I used a USB charger for my MP3 player. The next day, when I tried to charge with car charger. To my surprise, the USB connection notification showed up (I do remember, while charging with wall outlet or car charger, it will never prompt me for USB connection).
I don't think, it is the ROM issue. Try a few ROM still having the same problem.
From now, I got to live with PC USB :|
X1 Charging problem
I have same problem. I can not charge via both USB-PC and Wall. In order to charge the phone, I have to switch it off and then charge it.
This happened after I used CHEAP car charger from dealexteme.com
Now everytime I want to charge my phone, I have to switch it off.

I'm using the original SE charger!? I would not think the problem with the charger, but my X1 was screwed by the incompatible MP3 USB charger
Yep same with me, not sure why mine started doing that though, I never got used a cheap charger. Maybe its the rom... I am trying a new one now.

it's not caused by the ROM, I'm very sure. I've installed different ROM. The problem still exist.
I am having a similar problem. When the phone completely discharges , i am unable to charge it with any power adapter or even car charger. I have to initially charge the phone using a PC , then after the power is around 15% , then the phone gets charged with a normal adapter.. any suggestions??
same problem. It happends when the battery is completely discharged.
what I do is use a charger w/ low amp rating (.1) and plug it in for at least 10-20min. Give it some time, it will start charging after a while (indicated by the blinking lights). After that, you can turn it on and charge it normally
I had a similar problem twice.Both times I solved it by replacing the charger.
the same happen to me and i have another issue
my xperia doesnt work as usb mass storage!!!
the solution was buying another charger but..the usb mass storage issue still not working as a flash drive!!

Hi everyone,
I've got a problem. When i charge my phone by USB on my laptop. The battery keeps to be drained. The notification icon says it is charging but it's like if it wasn't. When i try to charge my phone by AC adapter, It quickly charge without problems.
When i charge the battery, Wifi and Bluetooth are not activated.
Does anyone has noticed that ?
Thanks by advance

Try from another laptop or desktop.Sometimes Laptops don't provide enough power! Mine for example takes double time with laptop

Being my 1st smartphone (came from a BB) I have noticed it is slow to charge on USB but dont have anything to compare to. Will go up by about 10% in 40Mins for me.
I know that USB has less power running through it so wont charge up anywhere near a mains charge so bare that in mind.
Have you tried other USB ports or another computer? Might be just not enough juice coming through to charge it properly.
