weird... trying again

I have been having this problem for a while and I can't figure out a solution.
When I plug in my kaiser to the computer, everything seems to work fine, however the active sync won't start and won't recognize the device. Also the device won't charge even though it shows the amber ligtht and the screen become brighter when I connect. I have the same problem with my car chargers.
If I use the HTC splitter (USB and Audio) everthing works the way it should be. But if I use a direct cable, bypassing the splitter nothing works. What is in that splitter that makes everything work? About 2 months ago, I didn't need a splitter to have it working. Is it a Rom issue?
Guys I do need help. It just drives me crazy.
Thanks.

Could be a slightly damaged mini usb connection. Have a look at the bottom of your kaiser and see if any pins are moved in the USB ext connector.

Yeah guy, I reported this issue with Kaisers & specifically Tilts 6 months ago. Have a look at your USB port pin on the device. If it is curved or the right side of the pin is slightly lower (Not arrow straight) then you may have sloppily placed your stylus on a soft reset. Sometimes this can be fixed by VERY GENTLY bending it back into shape with the stylus or another semi-rigid & smooth tool, that's if it not to badly jacked up. Because it charges in the home charger I'm about 90% sure that's your issue.

you guys are right. THe usb was slightly bent. Upon reading about the problem, I straighten it back however still the same problem. I am looking into getting a big magnifier to see if I see anything out of order.
In the meantime does anybody know a place in Toronto who is capable to fix this issue? I know a lot of people have problems but I don't want to send the device away.

[SOLVED] USB Sync/charge cable confused by phone with a TV OUT??

Hello,
Recently, whenever I plug my HTC Fuse into my laptop, the "Video Out" selection screen will appear on the phone and the display will turn into landscape. Opening/closing the keyboard with or without the USB cable removed will not change it back to portrait .. the only way is to go into settings and change it back, or soft reset the phone.
I also rebooted the PC , and the phone .. the problem still occurs. Any idea why my USB cable is being confused as a TV OUT? It didnt happen all the time with this cable, it is a new problem. It is really frustrating to have teo switch back to portriat after plugging my phone in , every time.
I will try another cable on Monday, I have to fetch my other one from work. Maybe the pins are somehow crossed? It does sync and charge perfectly fine. Also, I am using an older Energy ROM, and I will upgrade soon but dont have the time right now. I am hoping this is just a software issue and not hardware.
Any insight would be greatly appreciated. (I wasn't able to find any threads that discuss this problem in my searching.)

welll ...thanks for all your help guys
Anyway I was able to determine it was just the cable, as another cable worked fine. Did some research which indicates you have to remove a pin from a USB cable in order for the phone to recongize it as a TV out .. so I cleaned all the pins in the USB cable I have, very carefully .. and now it is no longer prompting as a video cable.
Now I am upgrading my rom

(LG-P990) Unstable connection in HDMI mirroring!

Well, this is my 1st post.
Seriously need help! I've been asking in one of the thread about HDMI mirroring but seems like there's no response or answer for this.
Well, recently I have bought this baby, have been using it for over 2 weeks' plus.
Lovin' every part of it.
BUT, issue came out when I tried to connect my O2X to my 38" Sharp LCD TV via the provided HDMI cable.
It went well at the first place. (I was trying to play with its HDMI mirroring features)
I tried browsing the web.
Executed few videos.
Tried few of the games too. As I was having fun playing with the games with gyros.
Suddenly the TV flickered with few green lines and then went blank. So i was thinking that maybe the cable gone loose or whatsoever.
I unplugged and plugged it back in. Nothing happened.
So i tried HDMI port 2 on my TV (It has 2 HDMI ports), it worked for a while, but to not over 5 or 10 minutes it went blank again!
I plugged it back to HDMI port 1, nothing happened.
The worst thing is that i tried with another LCD TV, a size of 52", with full capability of 1080p output.
Yes, it worked, but worked only a while. It seemed like the cable had "gone loose" then "disconnected".
Well, in my opinion, the cable connection shouldn't be so "fragile" right?
Why would the commercials boast about LG O2X's HDMI mirroring capability
and being able to enjoy gaming especially with gyro sensors,
when it is so fragile, being unable to mirror the output???
I'm sure it isn't my LCD screens issue. I've tried 3 different plasma TVs.
Is there anyway to troubleshoot? Is it the cable?
Or maybe even worse, it's my O2X??? I'm using stock rom by the way.
Desperately need some advices and comments regarding this issue~ =(

if you want.. u may test using another cable.. to make sure it's cable or urs 2x cause it..
i never test it anyway as im using DLNA..

DLNA supports HD too?
Well, it seems hard for me to find another cable here though.
I hope it's software based issue but not hardware (Then it can be solved easily.)
Or else i'll have to visit my retailer then. (It's a good news though when you can get a new cable. Or maybe even a new replacement of O2X~ lol)
So you have the cable right? Can you try it? I'm kinda' curious to know whether theirs any other O2X users facing this "fragile-connection" cable issue.
It sucks when you can't play games, like Tom Clancy's Hawx HD on the big screen via gyros controller.... =(

Got no problems connecting and mirroring mutiple games, browsing and movies (Allthough i think almost games upscale buttugly to a large screen, pixelmania)
But,
I notice that the cable tends to disconnect easily from the micro hdmi hub on the phone when making gestures, which causes a disconnection ofcourse and a black screen. Happens with two cables i have, dont know if its because of a bad micro hdmi hub build on the LG or the cables. I suspect the first one cause it happens with both cables.
So, that could be the problem. What happens if you watch a movie or just connect the LG idle on a table? If it stays stable, and goes unstable during gaming/moving the device around, yeah probably same issue.

I had almost the same problem. When i plugged in hdmi into TV, everything went haywire. random touches etc. But after i reflashed the ROM (v10b) or MCR fr18, every thing became smooth.

Gosh.. My problem is when it gone disconnected, pressing it back to the LG's hub didn't resolve either.
The most recent when it worked, watching a full 2-hour movie, was last 2 nights.
Unplugged it after use. But the next morning when i wanted to try again, nothing happened. Just blank screen.
The awkward part is the sound output. Even though nothing was shown on the screen, no sound from the LCD either, my phone's speaker was muted when it was plugged.
This means that the cable is still functioning at a certain stage right? (I guess.)
D*mn this is killin' me......

Component replacment question.

Awhile ago I shocked my phone and it shut off. After disconnecting the battery if came back on but I broke my screen. Since then I have gotten a new screen and back. All seems to run well it charges and transfers data between the phone and computer.
The only thing I can find wrong is that USB Host Mode no longer works. The phone sees the USB host controller but does not put power out to the external devices. Even when using an external powered USB hub I still cant see any of my devices.
Also the speakers while they still work sound like they are being way over driver even at low volumes, rattling and scratchy and such. Headphone still work great and so does bluetooth output. I have tried re positioning them several times. I updated to the latest firmware and am now running a google version of kit kat.
My phone is HTC Unlock, rooted and S-Off.
My question is does anyone know if this is just a problem with the M-USB assembley or has somthing been damaged on the main board?
Any help would be appriciated. If the main board is boned then I'll just get a new phone or mainboard/M-Usb assembley when I get back from deployment.

Did Chromecast mess up my Samsung TV? Help needed.

This is vey odd and i hope that I don't have to replace my TV as a result of using Chromecast.
The device was working great for a week and I was very happy with it. However, this morning when I turned on my TV, it developed a fuzzy red hue all over the screen. (see pic). Tried as I may, I just can't get rid of it. UpgradeingTV firmware, rebooting Chromecast...plug & unplug TV power outlet....nothing works. I imagine this can't be an isolated case...i hope someone can chip in on what I should do to get the perfect picture back again. Thanks!

So even without the chromecast plugged in it still has the red issue going on?

I doubt the CCast caused it...
But you should go into the TV settings and reset your levels to factory default.
It sounds like your TV went out of calibration which can happen if you hit the wrong button on a remote.
Saturation could be too high, Hue could be to far towards the red, Usually resetting the levels on the TV to default will solve it.
If not then it could be the sign of an electrical problem with your TV.

Do other sources show the same problem? It almost looks like your input is processing in some kind of old-school 8-bit retro mode.
I highly doubt Chromecast could have caused such an issue. Do as Asphyx recommends and reset the picture settings on your TV first.
If your HDMI ports have an option to specify PC/Computer versus Video, make sure they're set to Video (and if you change settings, reboot the Chromecast too).
If the settings don't change anything and the problem happens with all inputs.
If you have one of the newer/higher-end Samsung TVs that has the input connections on a box that's separate from the TV, check the cable that goes from the box to the TV - if the cable is loose, kinked or damaged this might cause problems like what you see.
Otherwise, it's likely your TV needs to be looked at by a professional.

Why is the writing backwards on your TV?

solved
I was able to cure the problem by tapping the back of the TV set several time on different spots. I think what happened is that I had a tendency to push in too hard while inserting Chromecast into HDMI slot. That might have damaged the TV connection. A few light taps on the back solved the issue. Although I am sure it's finicky and may come back again.

That sounds like either a Dirty HDMI port or some other bad connection on the Input board.
Makes sense actually because now that I take another look at your picture it appears that your green signal wasn't displaying properly.
