[Q] HELP Please nothing recognizes gear

[Q] HELP Please nothing recognizes gear - Samsung Galaxy Gear

hey everybody I need some help with my gear
I cant get kies, odin, or my PC to recognize the gear. I have tried multiple cables and installed the USB drivers. Also when i look at the battery app it says not charging although it is actually charging, this happens with the wall charger and plugged into PC and again I tried multiple chargers and cables.
I am thinking it might be a bad cradle. Has anyone had any experience in bad cradles or seen this issue before?
Thanks for any help.

It's not upside down is it? Sometimes it's the simple things we overlook.

I went into the sprint store and tried another cradle...everything worked so it was definitely a bad cradle.

(Q) I need some help please

So my cousin gave me his HP TouchPad to fix because it didnt boot up, he had gotten it from someone and it worked for a while as he stated but than it died and now it woulndt turn on. It's a 16bg i believe and i have searched the forums so i did try a few tricks. When i hold the power button it gives me the low battery and right after it, the white connect to power logo. It shuts off afterwards. When i connected to the computer straight away, it gives the low battery and says to charge reliably use the original cables and so fort, then it shuts off. Anyone can help me with this please?
Thank You

did you try to charge it with the original charger?

Bad charging cables are known to cause this problem.

Well I have the USB cable it came with but not the wall charger. Tried cables from my galaxy s 4g, blackberry and few other cables that fit it. Nothing. Tried apple wall charger and Samsung wall charger still nothing. U know where I can buy the originals for it?

You need that hp charger or one that puts outt the same juice 5.3v=2.0A it wont charge on the computers usb port.

It will charge with a 1 amp charger(iPhone;htc wall usb) albeit slowly.
Definately test another cable, find the highest rated USB charger you can, ????, profit!

Well thanks for the replies. I just got home from work and it was connected to the usb port all day, now i took my iphone chargers end and connected it into the power strip and connected the usb. Any idea where i can find the originals or ones that work for this touchpad. When ever power connects to it, low battery comes up showing little bit left with red and it says connect originals if u want the most reliable charging..

nothing is 100% sure, but you will need an original charger anyway...only 5 bucks to find out...i bought 2 just to have an extra usb cable.....
also a nice addition to have is the touchstone charger, yet they run about 40 bucks..you can check one out at tiger direct or flebay.

well thank you and i will keep you guys updated. ordered the original one today.

you can get a wall charger for $5 http://www.shopping.hp.com/en_US/ho.../FB341AA?HP-TouchPad-Power-Charger&aoid=35252

Galaxy S charging problem!

Hi there, first post on this forum, sorry for any mistakes.
I have 2 problems with my SGS: (Running an ICS root, not sure which one, came with it on when I bought it on eBay a couple of weeks ago.)
1: I have a charging problem where it will sometimes charged fully, which I am happy with, but other times it will actually discharge whilst 'charging' according to the lock screen. It will charge sometimes, slow down, then go backwards after a while, ending up with a flat phone when I wake up in the morning... The problem started when I used a wall charger from a SG Spica, but then worked fine again when I used the charger I got with the phone. It has now started to screw up again which is annoying. I have purchased a new 3500Mah battery for it so I don't know whether this will sort the problem out.
2: The mini USB port is slightly broken so I have to pull up on the cable otherwise it isn't picked up and won't charge. This is also annoying as if it moves slightly during a charge it won't charge at all. I tried fixing it with a toothpick but it didn't really help. I think the problem is that the connector/contact is slightly bent.
Thanks for your help!

well, If there is a problem with your micro USB, than you need to fix this first, it may be the root cause of your problem

Where will I be able to purchase a new micro USB from? I think I would be able to do this otherwise.

This doesn't seem right to be honest... Charging 80% of the time, yet it loses charge...

yep, and if the USB pins are shorting in the micro USB slot or your battery contacts needs some cleaning, these can happen, as well it looks as though you have too many notifications or widgets running, also a reason for heavy battery consumption.

[Q] Galaxy Gear won't turn on!

Hello.
Galaxy Gear is not turning on! I clic the power button and nothing happens. When i put it to charge all i can see is the battery icon with a circular loading kind of icon. It immediately disappears when i first plug it in. That's the only thing, i'm not able to know if battery charges at all.
I have not used my GG since April because of this. My GG has never been dropped or stained with liquid. It had null rom and i was using it perfectly with my GS4. Perhaps pins are not clean? They look like they are clean and pristine but maybe something is happening? My charging cradle is bad? Or can i try to turn it on any other way without pushing the on button.
Really it has not scratches, i have never dropped my watch or hit it with anything. It seems dead as not being able to turn it on. I don't know what to do, would like to revive it.

Try plugging it into a computer and see what happens.

Thank you so much, i think it fixed. Right now i'm seeing the charging icon. Charge at 0% and battery green. I'll leave it plugged into the laptop.
I kind of tried this before, but i don't know why it didn't worked. But now it did. I'm so glad i do not have to dissemble it.
Hope it works.

For some mysterious reason, a computers usb power source magically repairs power issues.
Glad it worked!

Yep i charged it, and it's running
I've been away. With all these new galaxy gears. How does the original Gear compares to the Gear 2 and Live Gear.
What's the difference between Gear 2 and Live Gear?
So far i think original gear is more or less same in specs than these other 2... and i think Gear 2 and Live Gear are very similar, but Live Gear doesnt have a camera.
I've been living a cave, called college.

Help me

Take everything out of the Gear. Connect usb cable to PC. Connect cable to the cradle without the Gear. Then place the Gear in the cradle with the connected cable.
That it what i did, it worked at first try.
Leave them connected 2-3 minutes (i think) if i remember well, and you'll the charging icon changed. It will display 0%.
Leave it connected to PC around 10 mins more to make sure, and then immediately unplugged it and plugged it on a wall charger. It will normally charge and you'll see the % increasing.
That's exactly what i did. Hope it helps.

Serious charging problem!

Guys please help me out I am in serious problem.
I have an international M7 with developer ROM on it. Till yesterday everything was 100% fine. But this morning when I tried to charge it, it gave me an error saying use a supported charger. I have been using the original charger from the beginning. And since then no other chargers are able to charge it. No error message no nothing.
When I try to charge it while powered off it shows "charging" for 1 second and powers down, then again powers back on saying "charging" and this keeps going on n on.
I tried using an OTG flash drive and its working perfectly. Device is powering on without any problem what so ever. Its just not charging. Its also not getting detected by computer.
Please help me out!
:crying:

Interestingly enough, I had this problem last night.
The first time I plugged it in, I got the error about using a supported charger but i simply just unplugged it and replugged it in and everything was fine.
So... I don't really have a solution, sorry.
I'm on InsertCoin 4.0.2 on a Dev Edition M7

Its not charging or even getting detected on a PC as already mentioned and HTC CC is charging me 150$ for repairing :crying:
In fact they are charging the first 100$ just for opening the device. Huh...
Cant factory reset, very little battery is left so big risk. Is there no one else who has faced this problem ?
Again reminding you, OTG does still work...

The OTG still working has nothing to do with charging
their are 4 conncetions inside that usb port you need 2 of them to charge the other 2 for data. You say you cleaned the port.
Define cleaned the port.
I had a Samsung (same microusb port) stop being seen by PC or charging. I shut the phone off and used a paper towel folded to a point on one end, and dipped in rubbing alcohol. I inserted this into the port and let it set about 1 min. Removed it and folded the towel again and inserted the dry end. After 3 attempts at this the charger and data ports all work again. give it a shot.

I faced a similar problem while I installed cm11 nightly version. I resolved my problem by letting it charge for 9-10 hours in power off mode. It worked for me.

TXH said:
My model is F8132, 39.2.A.0.374.
Now the charging problem is driving me crazy: it's not charging with any wall charger. More precisely:
1. When power-on and connected to wall charger, NOTHING happens.
2. When power-off and connected to wall charger, red light pops out for a second and disappears, "SONY" pops out for seconds, and then the battery sign comes out WITHOUT charging.
3. The phone IS charging when connected to the computer in any case.
4. In fastboot mode when connected to the wall charger, IT'S charging.
I have to tried to use the Companion to repair, and to use flashtool to flash the firm that I have been using, both don't work. I have not unlocked the bootloader, or rooted the phone.
To my knowledge, it seems that the kernel is not working well when it is supposed to recognise the wall charger, but I hesitate to flash a rooted kernel since I never do anything crazy.
Please tell me what to do! GREAT THANKS!

I have the same problem, x peria xp SOV33 cannot fill properly and very long when the phone is active, it doesn't even charge when the cellphone turns off.
I can not get into flash & quick boot mode.
replacing a similar charger cable and adapter does not help at all.
after a few days I made my own charger cable.
combining usb cable with utp cable. (I mean making a single cable charger, not a fiber).
I'm connected to the fast charging adapter version.
and this works.
but the problem is the device can not enter flashmode & fastboot.
I do not guarantee how this will work for all.
the risk of hardware damage is borne by each
sorry my english is very bad

Hi, I have a Sony Xperia X compact that has suddenly stopped charging using either the dedicated wall charger. It will charge using my external battery pack, but when it is plugged into the wall charger it will not charge. At first I assumed it was the charger itself, as the micro USB cable was obviously working with my battery pack. The charger I bought was also a genuine Sony one, but this didn't work either, so both this and the original one was used on my husband’s Nokia Lumina 520 which also has a micro USB port for charging and it charges that fine. I then got another micro USB lead and that didn't work either, so I tried my husband’s charger on my phone and again, no charging activity.
It's a weird one, as I don’t understand why it won’t recognise a wall charger but is fine with my batter pack and of not it doesn’t recognise a computer either.
