hello
I know it's a very weird problem, but maybe someone have any ideas.
Here are the facts:
1) I can charge my Tytn II from the A/C adapter (amber LED on)
2) I could charge my Tytn II from PC USB (amber LED on) and sync with activesync, but it stopped working... it doesn't charge anymore (amber LED off) and also doesn't sync
2a) I tried to swap USB cables
2b) I tried to swap USB ports
2c) I tried to plug to another computer
2d) none of those worked
thanks
Long Shot Here. But see if you can find this setting. Start -> Settings -> Connections -> USB to PC. Toggle the Option (If it's Off turn it on, if it's on turn it off). Soft Reset.
If that doesn't work May try a Hard Reset But this will delete all you Main Memory Data. But it should leave your SD Card data alone.

that's weird, because the "USB to PC" setting isn't even opening
it just reacted as if it runned in background (it shows it's clicking it, but doesn't open anything)
i'm trying to avoid the hard reset as much as I can, because I just did it 2 weeks ago and now it's the way I like
if you're using wmdc i know under the connection settings theres a place where u can check to charge the phone while using usb or in some other wording..maybe u can take a look there

I found a similar option on Battery setting, but it's correctly checked

After going through the trial of my dead phone, I believe that this is the same culprit that plagued me. I was able to get a new battery, but when I connected it to my computer via USB it would not charge. The funny thing is though, I can charge from my car adapter only! I do have to wiggle the contact to get it just right. My phone connector must not be aligned right. But I'm still having the same problem. Tried different cables and ports. I can not charge from a wall outlet either, just the car.
Any ideas?!
The USB connector got a bit deformed and doesn't make good contact anymore?

That was my guess. Mine had this happen recently so I put a slight bend in the USB cable end so that it would pinch more tightly and now it charges.

I couldnt seem to charge my kaiser through my PC's USB. it doesnt charge when I plug in. I couldnt charge with my old wizard charger as well, i can only charge with the charger that came with the kaiser. anyone has the same issue?

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.
huib
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.

hey ya'll, so for the longest time when I would plug the tilt into the wall charger, the screen would NOT turn on (it would not wake up) - however, suddenly, now it does...
I've tried going through all the settings, but I can't seem to figure out how to get it to not wake up when plugged in (wall charger) -- I know it will turn on when plugged into the computer, that's fine -- any help, as always, would be greatly appreciated
thanks!
Well I'm not sure how to stop it from waking when you plug it in, but you can always tell it to go right back into stand-by.
Check out the settings in Start > Settings > System [tab] > Power > Advanced [tab]
You can tell it to "Turn off device if not used for" X amount of time while "On external power".
Not a fix but I hope it helps.
It's a strange thing. I have both a wall charger and a desktop cradle/charger.
When I plug my Tilt into the desktop cradle (without the usb cable connected to the pc), it turns on. But, when I use the wall charger, it doesn't.
This is very consistant. Maybe the pinout is different between the connectors, or the output voltage is different.
It's just something I've gotten used to and can live with.
The Tilt will not wake if you use the wall charger that came with the Tilt. It will wake if you use other types of usb charger

I've noticed that myself and I think it is extremely odd but intelligent.
If your cradle is connected to a PC via USB then it will wake. My Tilt never wakes when I simply plug into the charger, but dropping it into my cradle wakes the PPC and the PC (if it happens to be asleep).
It wakes because there is a sync notification that tells it to on detection of a USB ie. repllog.exe is by default set to run when this key is present "AppRunAtRs232Detect"
Now you can remove this repllog entry, but it means you would have to run repllog manually every time you want to sync.
The following was written for the purpose of replacing repllog entries deleted by mistake. However it will give you some info on what happens when you connect certain Rs232 USB connectors.

I am using the supplied wall charger that came with the phone and the screen powers on when I plug it in. It used to not do this at one point. I believe some thrid party software I installed is causing this. Also the screen with turn on once the charge is complete. Very annoying at night. I don't want to use the on external power settings to blank the screen after x minutes because this messes with using the GPS function while in my car. I want to see the screen while using GPS and plugged into a power source.

It shouldn't, all GPS programs I've tried force backlight on regardless on the system settings while they're running. Which one are you using?
I'm using iGuidance 3.1.
I had to do a hard reset due to an app I installed making my phone go all wonky. After the hard reset and re-installing all my programs I no longer have this problem of the phone waking on external power.
My original Tilt used to do the same thing - screen turned on when plugging into the HTC supplied power cord (even after a H/R with no programs). Eventually, the phone had to be replaced after one day it had a red light after charging a few hours and wouldn't turn on (it had been around 50% when plugged in). My refurbished Tilt mostly does not power on when plugged into the wall charger. Once in a blue moon, it will. It is random enough, I haven't been able to see a common factor as to why.
Any settings to disable wake on USB to computer connection?
A lot of times I plug my Kaiser to PC just to charge it, and I hate to see it connecting every time.
Many thanks!!!

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.

did it work b4? I'm sure there is active synch (xp) or wmdc (vista/7) installed?
did you try another usb port (if possible also on another pc)? don't use hubs...
do you have a firewall that's interfering?
whats your config in start - settings - connections - usb to pc
is "Enable faster data synchronization" enabled? disable it
is start - settings - system - power - battery -> "When phone is on, don't charge the battery when connected to a PC." activated? deactivate it

just did a little reg search
check these on your device
\HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\Battery\EnableUSBCharging (here it's on 1)
\HKLM\Software\OEM\USBToPC\SncMode (here it's on 2=>disk drive, 0 for active sync)
\HKLM\Software\OEM\USBToPC\EnableAdvancedChecked (here it's on 1)
\HKLM\Software\OEM\USBToPC\DisablePopUpUI (here on 0)
and connect your device to PC via USB and then soft reset x1, sometimes that works
I set it, but still same. I have pictures of my USB on board, disassembly. No oxidation.

yep, now it's accessible
but for me it looks good, but I'm no technician...
For me too, so it must be software problem, my guess bootloader or something like that.
Please clarify
You're saying that:
1. You can sync just fine.
2. You can not charge from your computer usb port.
3. You can still charge fine using the wall outlet/AC charger. (otherwise, how can you try many different rom if you're out of battery power)
4. What you want is to charge your phone and sync at the same time.
Am i correct? Please correct where i'm wrong.
My answers would be:
a. Modify your current active power plan, disable selective usb power down.
b. Make sure your usb port are USB version 2.0. Really old pc often have mixed usb1 and usb2 port, better read the manual.
c. Disable USB pop up selection on phone setting, make sure active sync selected. Also make sure to allow charging from usb in power setting.
d. Some mainboard are picky with certain usb device, if you or your friend have Powered usb hub, try that too.
Now, here's my advice.
Forget about charging from pc/laptop. When power saving kick in, vista/seven will power down that port. no more charging.
When Active sync kick in, charging stop, recharging again. If you're using any BT/Wifi/2g-3g/heavy workload, it's very likely that usb port won't be able to provide all the power x1 need. so what happend is while it's charging, somewhere in between it's actually charge-discharge cycle. That will kill your battery fast. Do search old posts from wm2003 age to understand better.
No, I am saying that:
I can not sync via USB.
I can not charge from PC.
I can not charge from wall outlet/AC charger. I have external USB charger and two batteries
Yes, I want sync my phone and charge (PC or wall outlet/AC). Are we clear now?
So it looks my USB on X1 is dead, but motherboard looks fine, and X1 shows me options after plug USB from PC, but its not working anyway. And in bootloader X1 detect USB too, but its all.
2 batteries and external battery charger. That explain my confusion.
One last thing, what method of flashing you use? Sd card method or romupdate/pc method?
Because, from my understanding if you can enter bootloader through pc utility, that means the data communication are fine. so usb port should be fine.
I'll try mine on win7 and see what i can do.
had my eyes on that rom too. i guess i should try that rom. i'll tell you asap. oh, since i'm on dial up, guess asap mean a few days.
I use SD card method. Let me explain the bootloader thing. When I go to bootloader, it shows tri color screen and it shows me on top some text (hardspl and other things..) and at bottom, it shows Serial text. If I plug USB into Xperia, it change from Serial to USB, Win 7 trying install drivers, but it fails. Its all. I try different roms, 6.5, 6.1 etc...
Ok, here's what i got so far.
Sync issues: 5 usb cable each from SE, nokia, shielded regular cable, cheap external hdd usb short cable, long slightly damage usb cable.
a. All cable show error or not recognized if connected through front panel pc case usb port. However phone display usb selection and of course none would work.
b. Connecting through mainboard rear usb port would work, and device detection and driver installation completed successfully (if you enable driver update auto download in device driver policy).
c. After driver installed properly, all cable work properly no matter which usb port (front, rear, hub) except wmdc (because i don't have it yet)
d. Wmdc version 6.1 from microsoft download center did'nt worked or installed correctly with no warning or whatever (no shortcut created, no entry in cp), even when that build worked on vista.
e. Wmdc that work ok must be downloaded from windows update optional tab. 2 update, 1 plain wmdc and 1 driver update for wmdc showing same d/l size.
f. after 2 hours, wmdc installed fine, but the other failed. No luck on retry. wmdc can detect the phone IF enable faster data sync not checked. However i don't have outlook so can't test sync result.
All cable worked after all that above.
g. I'm betting that in order to enable faster data sync required the driver update for wmdc.
Charge issues: Same cables, 1 SE Usb charger and car charger, 2 motorola.
a. All charger work properly.
b. Usb charging on front panel case show charging icon, however in about 30 minutes battery meter drop more than 10%, voltage dropped from 3.8v to 3.6+v.
c. Mainboard rear usb port can charge, but power output might a bit to low (around 250mAh left for the batt). With active 3g or wifi, not good.
Shall i continue the next step?
i think it's better to check wmdc and try another charger first.
I dont understand...I cant do anything with my USB on X1-no charge, no PC connection, nothing.
i think it's better to check wmdc and try another charger first.
>>I tried many chargers and many cabels, many computers, nothing.
battery pin
ok, the last thing i can think of is to check if there's power going or not.
do you have voltmeter (& know how to use)?
Do it at your own RISK..
a. remove bat. cover & battery.
b. notice there's 5 pin battery connector on phone,
like (+) TT T TT (-).
c. plug the charger on phone (without battery), using voltmeter get reading from the pin that i marked from L-R side (don't short circuit them).
like this .TT T TT. (don't do it like this T.T T T.T)
d. from what i've learn from batteries so far, the 2 (+) pin output 2 different voltage when connected to a single (-) pin. the other (-) pin either not used or probably for monitoring/controlling ic. i have no idea what the center for.
e. my reading from point c: 3.3v. no need to try the others. you don't want to kill your phone.
FYI, on full battery .TT T TT. = 3.3v, TT. T TT. 4.2v
if you didn't get proper reading, i believed it need proper service/repair job.
Sorry i couldn't be more helpfull. Best of luck to you..
dude, it just hit me. maybe we're thinking too much. most of usb problem i ever seen was worn out or bent pin inside the connector. have you look inside?
yeah, there is power going through USB, i checked 2 hours before...but i am stupid and i did stupid thing now..i flash via sd card stock spl, and now i cant boot into system, it always shows tri color screen, beacouse rom is not stock...
I'm having a very strange problem. When I plug any USB charger into my devices micro usb, it immediately connect (I use lightflow and get a light indicator as soon as I plug it in). However, it will take about 5 extra seconds for the device to actually begin charging. (indicated by the lightening bolt in the battery icon). Anyone know why this is or how to fix? I'm hoping it's not a hardware issue with my device.
This is also causing any PC to not recognize the device (regardless of ADB, drivers, USB debug, MTP, etc.).
Thanks

I do not think the two behaviors are linked. As I posted on your other thread, mine has the same delay when plugging in the charger. However, I have no problems with PC recognizing device. Explorer can see my device's SDcard. And ADB works flawlessly.
any fix on this? Mine has been doing it for a month or so now. Also my battery has went to **** as well. Also - did you buy yours from qualitycellz?
