Sorry if there is an answer to this, but if you could help me out...
I do not want my HD7 to be charging while USB connected to the PC. Is there a setting that I turn this off?
I have the same problem! I think you should get a NON-CHARGING USB Cable. I ordered one, you can find them around eBay for 6-8$.

Hi there
I have recently lost my car charger and replaced it with e-bay one. However, I've noticed when charger is plugged in phone Is asking me if I want to run ActiveSync? Why is phone thinking that car charger is PC? Could this damage the phone?
The charger seems to charge if I ignore the message.
anyone.... someone must have seen this before
That just means the USB connector has the data pins. And the phone phone is detecting them when plugged in. Just ignore it. It won't hurt anything.
Greeting to XDA-community.
I have a problem. I don't have any opportunity to use regular charger for my G1. So I used charging via usb, but when I have turned on Wifi (ad-hoc to connect with laptop) and started to use G1 heavily it just dropped dead (battery is 0%). As I understand charging via usb is less then amount of power G1 uses during heavy use. But now I can't charge the phone at all. I have killed my second battery (stock too) the same way. The only thing that I see when connect to usb is that LED is red, sometimes light is pulsating, but can't turn the phone on. I also use to different source of charging. The problem I can do this only from USB port . Did somebody have such problem? I need someway to charge it...
Thanks for any help
You could try a powered USB hub, but if youa re going to buy something, why not just buy a charger?

I am using smth like this, a charger for mp3 player with 5.2v. Doesn't help
I am in Europe for couple of weeks, charger isn't working here due to different plugs, so I didn't bring it with me (but should , you can buy adapter US-EU plug without problem), thought charging via USB is working well, but it don't.
When i connect the phone to usb cable, the display go black and it will reboot if i unplug it. Does anyone have a similar problem? and how can i fix it?
Thanks alot,
Could be your usb connection on the phone has been damaged...Or try using another usb cable. My hd7 would not charge a week ago and i thought my phone was pooched. First thought i damaged the connector turns out it was my cable..The cable appeared okay but once i swapped a new usb cable it was fine....Hope this is what it is for you....
you are buy new cable for phone
Okay, I have just got this phone today, from a guy on craigslist and I think that the data cable he gave me is really really bad. I had it charging in the car through said cable with the car charger he gave me and it was fine. I come home and plug the phone into the computer and when i unplug it, it tells me the battery is critically low. I turn the phone off and back on and the level is good on it. So would this be the cable, the battery, or the charging port? I'm certain its the cable, but I just want to make sure and have another answer to this question. Thanks in advance, and if there is another thread about this, i'm sorry...
It appears that either the USB port or the USB controller is failing (has failed). The phone still charges but neither the phone nor any computer recognizes that the phone is plugged in. Even when I plug the phone into a wall jack, the phone does not make any sound or light up or show it is charging (it does charge though). If I go to the battery settings while the phone is plugged in (computer or wall) the phone recognizes that it is charging.
If the phone is off and I plug in the usb cable (compter or wall) the phone turns on by itself. This is problematic because I cannot get into the download mode using the 3 button combo. I also cannot get into the download mode using apps like Reboot Widget.
I installed USB Host Controller which says that the USB cable is not plugged in when it is. I can disable and enable USB charging though. Changing the USB Host Drivers has no effect.
So it looks like I need to send it into mobiletechvideos for repair. But reading through the reviews there is concern that just replacing the USB port wont fix my problems if the USB Controller is shot.
Not only did they replace the USB port and get it back to me in about a week but they told me that since the controller had failed and the phone couldn't talk to the computer I wasn't charged the full price for the repair.

So I guess I'm asking if anyone here knows anything about this issue and if mobiletechvideos.com can repair it.
I am also going to email mobiletechvideos.com asking them this same question.
Thanks for your time.

Mobiletechvideos (Connexion2005 on xda) can most likely repair your phone. Him and Adam Outler have been doing the impossible with devices!
