When i connect my phone to the charger it goes on and recognizes it (although it doesnt charge, i already knew that), but when i connect it to my pc it doesnt turn on (my battery is very empty), i thought it charges the phone a little when connected to a pc? I want it because i wanna use SFT? How come that my phone can go in S/W mode when on the charger and not when connected to my pc?

Try pulling the battery out and putting it back and try again. I had this happen once and I think that's how I got it going.

Is your charger pooched? If not have you let it charge for awhile to see if it starts to charge?

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.

gps is only on when i run a gps app, right?
i looked around, i dont see any option to toggle gps..

Make sure this checkbox is NOT checked:
Start > Settings > System > Power > Advanced > When device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the PC
**EDIT:
oops.. sorry for being a smart a**. A poster already suggested this.
Sometimes when I plug my captivate into the wall charger, my captivate thunks that its a computer so it says USB connected and USB debugging.
Then I would unplug and then plug again and it would work normal.
This started to annoy me so is there a fix to this problem? Btw I'm running darky 9.2.

Try flashing a different kernel, see if it changes anything.

Is it the factory charger?
Usually its output related.... cause USB typically puts out 500-550ma and the wall charger I believe is 700-750ma.

How do you flash a different kernal???

Hi guys,
I'm having a problem with my incs lately, it WILL ONLY charge on any mode other than charge only... That means I can only charge it using a computer on either usb tether/usb storage. (When its in USB Storage, I can read my SD card from my computer)
The problem come when i tried to try the USB host using the Y cable, I think i messed up somewhere. The phone thinks that there is a data session running INTO my device, and to make things worse, I set my USB to PC connection to Disk Drive by default. After I unplug the device from the Y cable the Disk Drive symbol still exist and the led (orange) still lighting up. I connect it to the charger and plug off, it seems to turn off the disk mount and led. However after that point, I can't never charge using charger/usb charge only. (Its a flash drive and a 5VDC power source on the other end of the Y cable if you are wondering)
I have tried flashing different ROMs, even charge when the device is off, charge in recovery, and wipe battery status. None works.
So... For now I think I fried the USB controller, so can anyone suggest any solution? HW replacement or a SW that will make the phone think all plug that goes to the microusb is a data? or any other?
Thank you in advance
What kernel/mod are you using for USB host?

Well, I failed using it, I was using ARHD, and there was no USB host capability.
Can someone suggest what the problem might be? Is it just the port or something deeper? If its just port, thank god this spare part is avaiable

You can change what it defaults to, can't you? Change it to charge only mode. How is your device unlocked and have you done any other mods?
I can assure you its not something to do with the mod/software. Currently the phone cant be charged t all unless you charge the battery separately.
I think when i plug a charger , the current goes in reverse direction, making it discharge even faster, rather than charging

That's actually not possible, but you may have a charger issue. Have you tried another one?

Hi wpra3, i think i have exactly the same problem with you, initially i thought is the usb spoil, when i plug to computer, it prompt me that unrecognized device, recently it become worst when i plug in the usb, it not charging but is discharging and some time it prompt me that my phone is using too much battery while i am charging.
Have you find any solution yet?

Maybe:
1)Your USB-cable is corrupted. So phone cant turn on because battery is empty. Charging with this cable is not possible, computer also doesnt detect phone.
2) measure voltage of the battery if possible or try in another phone
3) what computer did you use? Linux/windows?
Does lsusb command (linux) shows your phone? Please connect phone at the motherboard-usb-ports of the PC (most times the USB-ports on the bach of the PC)
4)does your phone show anything when trying to switch on / trying to charge?
eg. Screen backlight or touchkey backlight.
5)Try different usb-ports.
6)You can buy a so called jig for a few bucks. Maybe you can boot to download mode with that.
Do NOT press the thanks button

I use Windows 7 on a Lenovo V570. The USB cable has been working fine with my SGS2 but now even when I plug it in to my laptop or the wall nothing shows up to tell me that it's charging. I've also tried different USB ports and different USB cables. I think it might be the device itself. I had ~70% battery life when this happened.
Also, I hit the thanks button because I'm still half asleep.

I'ts a Hard-Brick. It means that your phone is actually like a brick
The only thing that you can try is to buy a USB-Jig (google it for more info) or going to the shop to repair it.

Good luck!!
Dear XDA,
I have a fairly annoying problem. The phone is not charging properly.
When i connect my phone to a charger it charges for roughly 20 seconds. Usually it doesnt show anyting at the start. But after a while it shows the charging icon on the display and the led starts blinking. After 20 seconds it stops doing that and after a while it shows the charging icon + blinking led again. Somehow it's in a charging loop.
I've tried different adapters. Different cables. Let it 'charge' overnight. And hook it on to a computer for a hour or so.
Sometimes i can turn my phone on but then it's on 1% and powers off emediatly. It won't charge when it's turned on.
I'm running MaximusHD 46. I have it for a while now and had no problems whatsoever.
The phone is from the Netherlands but I live now in Zanzibar. They have a different power output and the voltage is not stable. Usually i charge it when there is a stabilizer connected. But hasn't been always the case. Could that be the problem?
Thanks in advanced for your replies,
Lennard

This problem occurs all the time? I mean it's the same in all modes like when booted up and running Android, while powered off and while in recovery.
Or only when the device is powered off?
What recovery are you using ? (name and version) please :good:

I have not been able to get into recovery. Basically it's dead in the water and occasionally i can turn it on.
The recovery i use is TWRP. The version i'm not sure of (since i cannot check) but if I think it's 2.6.3.6.

Sounds like a Hardware problem either with the usb port or the battery itself.
A new usb cable may help if you've already tried that there's not much else you can do.
Some of the newer 2.8.x.x versions of TWRP have issues charging while off. But it doesn't effect charging any other time. Have you tried powering on while it's connected t an AC wall charger?

Lint? What do you mean with that? But yeah, I have cleaned the usb port from dust.
And I managed to get into recovery! I tried finding out where i could reset the battery settings... but I couldn't find it . The phone was getting hot so i think it's sort of charging in recovery mode. So i let it be in recovery mode for the charging. Let's see if that works :]

If you can get a little charge in the battery you can try the USB Host Mode reset. Power off the device and hold Volume up+Volume Down+Power. Hold all three buttons for 2mins plus. The device will appear to bootloop while your holding the buttons. That's normal. When you let go the phone should boot up normally.
Test the charging again :good:

I suppose it would be best to disconnect during the reset procedure. But I don't no for sure if it will make any difference connected or not.
