X1 will not charge / connect usb - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
My X1 is now unuseable as the battery almost flat and will not charge from the supplied charger.
I also cannot connect to the pc or any other device using the USB. I have tested the leads and the charger they work fine but my X1 will not charge.
It seems the mini USB connector is broken on the X1 but it charged fine two nights ago and last night just would not do anything, so i left it till this morning and connected it to the PC to hopefully give it some charge but again nothing not even activesync or direct disk drive are working. I have even rebooted the X1 just incase of a software fault but still same problem.
I have reverted back to my W960i due to stupid reason of no battery left on my X1. I will visit Vodafone tomorrow to get it looked at but before I do has anyone seen this before? Can i try anything?
HELP I have nearly had enough of this SE piece of S**t. ooops i didnt mean it.

I sent mine back to SE for repair as it will charge but not connect to the PC over USB. They told me that it was broken due to fluid ingress (I made a call in the rain) & so it is going to stay broken.
I doubt you will get anywhere with this, you'll need an external battery charger to keep the X1 going.
If you still need a PC connect you can Bluetooth to Activesync, but that doesn't resolve all your problems.

If my phone is left to run out of battery, i.e. the phone is dead and wont turn on and the red light under the power button flashes- it will not charge from a usb port on a computer or a car charger, it HAS to be charged from a mains outlet, and its not instant, it has to be left for ten mins before it will show signs of life.

Mine was not completely dead i just stopped using it because it wouldnt charge and seen no point in taking it out knowing the battery was gonna go.
I went into voda today and they have sent it off
They told me that it was broken due to fluid ingress (I made a call in the rain) & so it is going to stay broken.

well i hope not ,mine was nothing to do with fluid as it hasnt rained for a few days it just stopped working with no reason to it.
Ill see what they say in two weeks time when it comes back. Im paying top end contract price for a phone that i havent got im not a happy bunny

ooohh forgot to mention
While in the voda store the guy there said:
guy "is this a win mo"
me "yes"
guy "the repair center will update the X1 to the latest version winmo 6.5 but im not sure on this as its not released till december but you may be lucky"
me "erm i didnt think that would be released to older phones as SE will need to personalise this to the X1 panels etc"
guy "no it may take a little while but there will be an winmo 6.5 update for the X1"
me "oh ok ill believe it when i see it"
hmmm dont believe him somehow

Tilt wont turn on or charge. Shows red light when plugged

Noobie addicted to flashing. The headline says it all. After about 5 -6 different flashes (mostly different ROMs), it wont turn on. And instead of the yellow light that shows when charging, it's a red one, and pushing the power button does nothing. PLEASE HELP!!
Ditto.... And I haven't had time to do any flashing (plenty of time for streaking, tho). lol. When did yours have this problem? Mine just happened last night. I have babied this one like there is no tomorrow, so there's no reason for it to just quit.
FWIW, mine happened the first night I owned it when it was completely standard (ie no flashing at all). All I did was plug it in to the charger. When I woke up the next morning it was as you described. The store reps tried every combination of new charger, new battery and new SIM card with my phone but in the end they gave me a new phone.
This is bizarre - the same thing happening to all of us on the same night?!?
I woke up late this morning because my phone alarm didn't go off. Upon inspection, I realized that it hadn't charged and was completely dead even though it was plugged in all night.
Now plugging it into the wall or into a USB port results in a red light, no charging. I can't even turn it on although it's directly connected to power.
I've flashed several ROMs, but I've been running Dutty's 7B since it was released two weeks ago or so - I doubt that's a factor.
Help? Anyone?
Ummm, ok this is really fawkin freaky...add me to the list. Running dualtouch 1.1. Hung up the phone, went back to it an hour later...dead as a doornail. Wouldnt charge, got the red LED. Luckily I'd only owned it for 27 days, so I returned it to my local AT&T store and got a new one....too many people on the same night for this to be an isolated incident...same as other users, babied it like, well, an overpriced cellphone . Methinks there is something afoot!!!

Add me to the list.
Ok, this just happened to me just now...
MY 400$ PHONE JUST QUIT!!!!!
Not even 4 days old and it just gave out...
My standpoint (im a techie nerd) is this:
I charged my phone on my moms blackberry charger (~500mA)
The kaiser needs 1A to charge, so i only had half the power i was told...
When I had 89% I really had 44% and it drained really fast. So when I got home it was around 53% meaning I only had about 2% battery left (understand?) and when i pulled it out of my pocket...nothing, it wouldnt turn on SO I FREAKED OUT!!!!!!
I called HTC and they said to try a new battery, so I am going to go to the ATT store tomorrow and try another battery.
O and the reason is,
when Li-ion batterys get really low, they cease to produce the charge needed to keep the miniport active, thus resulting in any attempt to charge as futile.
Thats why you need to take out the battery and 'jump start' it by stripping a usb cable and putting the corresponding wires on their terminals (red + back -)
which will forcefully charge the battery and allow the miniport to become operable again. At which point you can resume using the HTC OEM charger (1A output at 5v) to resume the full charge. No other charger will suffice.
Im am going to try this now, you guys too and report back!
Dismissed!!!!
But my battery is fully charged...

Sorry to tell... but when this happening you need a repair. I got this problem 2 times with my Wizard. It's a hardware problem.
I did all the tricks you can mention but at the end it needed a repair.
I had some luck after the second time i got a compleet new MOB from T-Mobile SHOP Sales-Manager (Utrecht).
It sounds like the problem is with the Kaizer... so far everything overhere is OK.
I use only the org. loader and USB-port on my computer. Don't use a other loader than that !!!!
Just wanted to add my name to this list...
I've had my Tilt about 2 days. I haven't flashed it, but I have run several cabs on it...I didn't have it on charger when I went to bed, when I woke up, it was off. The only thing I did different than the rest of you was I tried to turn it on before I put it on the charger and it came back on saying that the battery was critically low or whatever, so then I stuck it on the charger and it seems to be ok now.
I could see it being a hardware issue, just seems weird that so many people had it on the same night, and under such different circumstances.
Also, first post...this site is great and you are all smarter than I ever hope to be
okay lets try this...remove batt....let phone sit for a few minutes. plug into power source without batt. unplg again....then plug again. while plugged into power source...put batt in...then remove...then in again. then hit the reset button. ofcorse this has nothing to do with anything. but if it was me i would try anything lol....lets see what happens.

lol also...does the phone come on with just the power cable plugged in and no batt? im curious to know about that. the latest version of kaiser tweak has a bunch of power settings. if the phone does come one...load up kaiser tweak and get in there to see if you can mess with the settings to fix this issue.

Well, speaking for those of us with the problem, the phone won't come on WITH the battery installed and the cable plugged in... I GUESS I could try it w/o the battery... would that even work normally?
I'm desperate.

key word desperate!! lol anything works when you're desperate...give it a try. if not then we'll move on to hard resetting and see where that leaves us.
This same thing happened to me a week ago. I hope you guys have your phones on contract from AT&T, because I took mine back to the store after 2 months of use (took great care of it, no drops etc.) and they put me in contact with customer support.
Great experience with support - they will ask you to take battery out, examine the battery contacts, ask if it was dropped or put in water, ask if you tried another battery and finally ask about hard reseting. Since the device doesn't even power on in this case, hard reset isn't an option.
The tech rep imediately told me it sounded like a hardware problem and shipped me a new phone overnight. They send you a reconditioned phone (it looks brand new) without a battery or stylus or back cover. You use your old battery, cover and stylus and send back your brick with the enclosed shipping label. As long as it gets back to them in 14 days and is deemed by them not to have been dropped or damaged, you don't get charged for the replacement device. Worked like a charm for me...but we'll see in a few months time if this same problem crops up again. Fingers crossed...
P.S. They will initially quote you $12 to upgrade to overnight shipping, but make sure to tell them that the phone is for business use and you need it quickly and they should upgrade the shipping for free. Worked for me!
By the way - I never flashed a different ROM on the original phone. (Stock AT&T ROM but soft reset before bloatware intallation) So don't think it has anything to do with flashing too many or the wrong ROM!
Red light.......
I called HTC and they said something got smoked inside.......I called warrenty dept. and they shipped me a replacement.......I think this is weird too.....oh well such as life.......
Did you have to ship the smoked one back?
Kind of a dumb question yes, but if no, poke around inside to see if you cant get it working again.
happened to me too. i'm pretty sure its a hardware issue.
This happened to me as well. I'm glad there is a thread to address the problem!
The one thing I noticed that is different about this new kaiser I have is that the battery is made by DynaPack, the battery in the kaiser that has this issues was a Samsung battery.
May this be the culprit?

Diamond won't charge anymore

Hi folks,
Today my battery nearly got empty, so i hung it on my pc with the usb cable.
Thinking that it would just charge, i left it there, then then it started to make noise, telling me the battery was critically empty.
Then i noticed that the circle isnt appearing (the leds), and it doesn't seem to charge. Now i've soft resetted the device, and it didnt work. Also used the thingy to use the normal power supply on it, didnt work. Now i turned it off, the leds do appear, but when i just turned it on, it didnt seem to be charged anywhere.
Any ideas??
Thanks, Escudo
EDIT: works after repair!
Did you remove the battery?
This happened to me in May last year when I first got my diamond - but not since.

I was trying to say remove and replace the battery to see if thaat helps.
I've experienced this with other devices. The connector on the phone can wear our or be damaged. I recently replaced a phone that acted exactly like this. I could charge the battery just fine in an another one and pop it back in for normal use untill it runs out of juice.
Just a possibility...
I have removed and replaced the battery, nothing seems to work.
What i'm going to do, is charge the battery at a diamond that we sell at my work. place it in my device, an hardreset it, cause i read somewhere that it might happen when windows files get corrupt. I hope that'll work....
Else i have to reinstall original rom and send it to htc :S
Alright,
Did a hard reset, after i placed a battery of a different diamond in mine. Didn't work. Then i downloaded the latest official HTC rom, didn't work either.
So i guess it's a hardware error.
Packed it in the original package, gonna search for the reciept later on, and gonna bring it back to the retailer on Friday (gotta work tomorrow).
So yeh, guess they'll send it to HTC, anyone know how long it takes, on average?
I'll keep this thread updated on how it goes .
Later
for how long do you have this diamond??
probably hw problem
Had the phone since August 2008, so not too long...
And yeh, i also believe it's a hardware error, cause nothing with changing software would change it.
I think some of the pins got stuck or something.
The usb data transfering does work, but it just doesnt charge.
I'll see in a few 'weeks', i hope

Shame the device still does not work. When mine got sent in for repair on a screen matter to the HTC (UK) repair centre it took 4 days.

Wow, that's really fast!
Normally, at my work, with devices we send to the repair centres, it takes about 2-3 weeks, so i am prepared for the worst case scenario !
Just had a call with HTC Netherlands,
They will pick up the phone next monday, so now it goes directly to HTC, which sounds great

Hello if tghat's only with your battery, I did had exactly the same. Other battery charge but not mine. In fact the battery level is so low that the electonic cannot start a charge. To resolve this, place another battery in, begin to charge, wait 1 minute an fast, I mean really fast, exchange the two battery while charging, this will (would ?;-)) cause the charging electonic to be feeded and your battery will charge again. Wait at least 10 minutes before testing it ;-)

Used one of the stock ones we have at my work.

Got it back today.
In good shape and everything, and most important: It charges!!
Even got a 3rd stylus with it

Reboots after I remove the batter

What the heck is going on?
I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with the ROM, because it did this with the factory ROM, Manila 2d and now WM6.5.
I turned the phone off, unplugged it, removed the battery. I put the battery back in, replace the cover and press the power button. Nothing happens. I plug the phone back in to the wall charger and put power, it turns on....for about 3 seconds then reboots and it would seem that it will do this for as long as I let it go. If I unplug the phone while this is going on, it will die.
The last time this happened, it took it about a day and a half to sort itself out. It almost seems like its a battery issue.
Any thoughts or ideas?
UPDATE!
I took the sim card out of the phone for a few seconds and the phone seems to be working now.... But its been up and running for about 20 minute now with no sings of acting up.

tried to charge the pda all night the light stayed orange and never turned green indicating full charge. tried hard reset and when it goes in to prepare rom it shuts off like dead battery. when i plug in the pda to charge battery and then turn on the phone it freezes on splash screen. if i turn on phone then plug in to charge it acts like i havn't pluged in charger. is it the pda or battery?
I am not 100% sure on this, but to me it sounds like the battery.. and that is a MUICH cheaper option to test out... unfortunatly you ahveto wait for shippng typicalyl unless you have a friend who has the same phone.. I got 2 backups and a stand alone charger now... The other option could be your USB port... I have not heard this specific problem with them.... but I am a PC tech and have seen very simmilar problems with laptops... Usually the first think to for is the power port... Just like out phone, if the device is not on a flat surface and such when it is plugging it, it tweaks the port and it eventualyl breaks... on laptops it is not uncommon that when plugged in, the LEF wil light up saying it is getting power to charge, but it enver charges the battery, and even sometimes can;t power up the full system.. .It sort of sounds like this is what you phone is doing as well.. .If that is the problem the stand alone charger would work (my son broke off his usb all together and now syncs via bluetooth and jsut changes batteries.. he has 3 himself as well) If you search online, you can usualyl find a kti with a battery or 2 and a charger/dockign station for under $20US total. Good luck!

tried bootloader and installed official att rom and never shut off. when it was finished with install same issues appeared. help
For anyone facing this issue I would not recommend wasting money on a new battery as this issue has been around with few users since the Kaiser "Tilt" first came out and I've never seen ANY reports that a new battery fixes this. People have bought new batteries, fully charged their battery from a docking station, tried their friends fully charged battery all with the same result. I had this power down issue a Looong time ago my first week in with the Kaiser and managed a fix and am using the same battery now. Although it seems the battery is not being fully charged it's important to leave it charging until you'd assume it's fully charged and get into bootloader mode and flash an official htc Tytn 2 rom. It should flash completely, and the fact that it does not die immediately as on normal boot indicates it is not the battery but the rom. It did take me the whole afternoon of Flashing, recharging and repeating before it finally kicked in. Also, from reading older posts, it seems most if not all users like myself fixed this by flashing the older official htc wm 6.0; worth a shot at least.

Yup, that is what I had to today (I hard reset, actually), with barely enough battery life to do this.
Then the bloody unit came up and was charging - amazing, really!
(Was using the official HTC 6.1 upgraded WindowsMobile OS)
here is my 2 cents....
I owned five Tilts, replaced four of them with warranty issues ... so i have faced this dilemma on at least two of them.
First see if the USB tongue is loose. To do this try to gently tap it with the stylus. If the tongue inside the USB port is loose then you will be facing rebooting and other issues and troubles in the future. The USB tongue gets used and jerked every time you connect your device to your PC or wired headset. If you are still under warranty and the USB connector tongue is loose I recommend returning the phone ( if you still can) and getting a replacement. There is no easy fix for a loose USB connection tongue as i have taken one apart and it is very difficult to repair or replace and very easy to mess it up further.
So, my advice to all Kaiser owners... be careful when plugging and unplugging your phones through the USB. Do it gently as the connectors are very fragile.
For those that have the above issues, I recommend using a separate battery charger tray, avoid plugging the USB as much as you can, and if you must, then administer extra care. The rebooting will stop if you plug the USB cable to the device and move it up and down a hair then holding steady. And most likely you will not get a full charge or even a partial charge. The biggest culprit to this problem is car chargers, and second, is inserting the stylus by mistake (when it is dark and hard to see) in the USB port instead of the Reset hole by accident.

Tilt Wont Charge

i plug in my wall charger,the led light indicating that its charging turns ON.
after 5 seconds the led turns off and starts blinking
COLOR AMBER
ACTIVESYNC works
any clues?
someone please help
the only way i can charge is in BOOTLOADER MODE
which overheats my battery making me putting a fan infront of the phone
Plus its useless in bootloader mode so i am frequently changing the sims to diff. phones

I have this problem all the time. Ever since I started using 6.5 ROMs. Three of Abu's, and damn near all of TPC's gave my phone this problem. I tried some of Josh's and my wall charger started charging my phone again. I have six batteries and tried them all and two different wall chargers before I found out it was the ROM. Changing Hard SPL and radios didn't work. After I flash I test to see if it will charge. My phone just can't handle everything the chefs throw in there.
I have the same problem. my phone no charge any more than 30%, but the display indicate 100%. I have 3 new Batteries and i have the same finish.

Major help needed !!!!!

I restarted my phone this morning because it was going really slow. so after I restarted my phone like I always do, it stayed at the ericsson splash screen and won't go past that. So then as many ideas come to mind, I tried reinstalling my rom (CHT WM 6.5, which i'm willing to share the link and all that for those who wants it), after it finished installing, it just stayed at the gray screen and did nothing. so after that, I tried HARDspl it once more to see if that was the issue. Tried it, but nothing happened. so once again I turned off my phone and then tried to turn it on. here's the funny part. I can't even turn my phone on anymore and I don't know why. I tried pluging it in to the charger, the lights didn't even go on....
I think I bricked my x1.
PLEASE HELP !!!! I DON"T KNOW HOW TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
I've only had this phone for a month, and there's already been so many problems with it. It's a big request, but I really would ask if someone can teach me how to reverse and fix my problem.
I would suggest you to charge your battery for a night, then reflash with a stock rom using Micro SD method to start everything again
try a hard reset ..
Guys

As stated, recharge the phone overnight and see if it doesn't turn on in the morning.
I've tried that but then it still doesn't work. I used the orginial charger + usb to charge last night ( directly plugged in to the wall socket, not through a power bar or anything like that ). when I woke up this morning, I tried turning on the phone and it still doesn't turn on. but then when I plug it into my computer, the red light turns on at the power button. the computer still can't recognize my phone as a valid device.
does that mean I have to give up to send my phone back to sony to be fixed??
should I just give up and send it back to sony to get it fixed?
I even called into to sony to ask for help...when I asked about the software, they just said send it back in to let their "professional" technicans to look at it.
I broke the screen on my old w810i and it costed me 80 dollars to fix...I only wonder how much it'd cost them to replace my battery and reset the software...
This is a very sad day for another very big sony ericsson fan....
Your phone probably ran out of battery, or at least that's what the red light means.
This is what I did before - remove the battery, then plug the phone in directly into the wall charger, and then slap the battery back in and wait for about 10 minutes. Usually the USB (computer) doesn't charge enough for it the wake.
i've tried doing that too.
generally I charge my phone through the wall charger.
and the whole time i've been trying to solve this issue i've kept only using the wall plugins to charge my phone.
i'm guessing as well as you are that my phone's probably out of battery + maybe the battery is unbalanced as well.
i think the main issue above the power not working is some how one of the .nbh that i have tried is corrupted. as far as my wm + computer knowledge goes, I don't have much of a clue how to back track to fix the software issues.
hi all..
first of all, it's -for sure- runing out of battery.. it has to be charged anyway..
I had your issue before with my old universal -JasJar-,, it had a red light all the time.. trying to turn on.. even after a time in charger,, still dosent make a sence !!
after all my searchs I tryid another battery from a shop- just for testing the devieces in there.. and..guess what ..
it just worked out !!
just try another battery..
it might-i'm not sure- that both our issues were related to the- the internal backup device battery- by someway making all of this when the main battery is out of order !! ..
waiting for your sucessfull results then
that's great to hear. I'll definitely update everyone on that battery issue as soon as I can get into a store to get a battery test.
SO, here's another thing, IF by any chance my phone turns on, what in the world could I do to get my phone to not "malfunctioned" anymore? would I just do a full reset on it and everything should be alright again? by full reset i mean pressing the soft reset button and the two silver buttons in front of the phone.
If it does turn on again, let it fully charge before you try to flash another ROM onto it. I'd probably flash the R3 ROM before I'd switch it to anything else, just to be sure that the phone is fully operational.
thanks for the advice. i'll definitely keep that in mind when I am about to do anything with the phone again.
hey everyone! I just got to a rogers store today about my x1.
so here's what will happen.
they'll send me a brand new x1 in about 3 to 5 business days. in return, i'll have to send the phone that I have had back to them so that they can see if it can be fixed or not (which i have strong confidence that they can't).
if it can be fixed, they'll tell me how much it cost.
if i pay for that cost, then i can keep my new phone. if I don't want to pay that cost, then i'll have to send that brand new x1 back to them.
I'm praying hard that they won't be able to fix that phone so I can keep the new one for free!!!!!
finally the x1 arrived!!!!!
so now hopefully it will stay working and then rogers won't charge me for the new replacement that they sent me!!!
