Hello,

My battery is not charging while the charger is connected !!!

the phone detect the charger but the battery won't charge :s

any idea ?

thank you
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] got556:
Try any other chargers?

If yes, and still doesn't work then I'm going with faulty charger port. Just got done setting up a refurb from VZW b/c my g/f's gnex had this issue.

The only other thing I can say to try is bending the tab/metal plate in the middle of the charging port up towards the glass a bit to center it more. May work.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] warrenbey:
i've tried 3 differents chargers and usb cables.it shows "charging" on lockscreen but the battery drains !

i'll try to bend the metal plate to center it more.hope it will work

thank you got556

I'd say it was the charger, same thing happened to me when a bought a charger off eBay for my sgs2.

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rulyskull:
Try turning the phone off and charging it it might be a ROM issue or something

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] rulyskull:
Are you using a wall charger or USB port? And if your using a wall charger have you tried changing the part that gos to the outlet, not just the cord itself?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] warrenbey:
yes i did change it and i have used 4 diferents chargers
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] warrenbey:
i can transfer data when i plug it to the computer, but it does not charge :s weird !!!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] babluc:
I had this problem. The charging port (the thing in the middle of the port) on the phone was bent. Took a safety pin and moved it a bit.

This is the only thing that worked. Used different chargers and battery, nothing helped but this.

the battery icon shows that it's charging but when i go to settings and check the battery, it says discharging
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] alannyny:
known issue

This is a known Samsung hardware problem with GNex. The USB port's contact (in the center) is made from cheap, thin metal -- unpleasantly reminiscent of the Galaxy S cheap, thin metal GPS antenna; a total fail. It's really criminal that Samsung releases product like this, and moreover that they don't halt production and engineer the problem out before putting more lemons out there.

The recommended solution -- bending the contact into alignment -- worked for me for about 5 seconds. Repeat 5 times, and then the phone simply wouldn't start up.

Your best solutions:

1. If it's under warranty, send it in for a fix

2. If it's not, search this forum for instructions on buying (ebay?) and replacing the USB port.

In either case, I'd worry about the problem re-occurring. I bought the very overpriced desk dock so that I can charge using the pogo pins. However, in my car I still need to use the USB cable ... very carefully.

I wouldn't ordinarily get phone insurance, but in this case I'm considering it. Not sure if it would be a covered incident. Does anyone know of a well-priced third-party insurance company that actually provides the coverage that one expects?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] jaydoc79:
Hi there.

Has anyone managed to fix this issue?

My phone has the same problem. When I try to charge it, battery icon changes to charging animation, but battery percentage will not go up. In settings, status of battery is "discharging". Also, battery settings page does not show any application using battery other than "Android OS" and "Screen" which i find strange - usually at least 10 apps are shown on this page.

Have tried different wall chargers and USB cables, have tried getting the pin in the micro-USB port to the middle. still no help.

On the latest version of JBSourcery ROM, if that helps.

Thanks.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bopsch:
battery calibration?

this may be the case if you recently flashed a new ROM and your battery is not properly calibrated yet. you may try to let the battery completely discharge and charge again (of course, this only works, if it is indeed not a hardware issue ;) also, use only wall chargers)... repeat that a few times and your battery should be calibrated again... had this problem a few times after flashing a new ROM, but that fixed it.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] maaluwa:
I've had the same problem twice.

Both times when i shut down the phone it kept restarting most of the times, and rarely itvwas shut down & when it got shut down i was able to charge the battery. But then when i turned on the phone and plugged the charger it didn't charge

Evidently my solution was to remove the battery and wait 5 minutes or so before placing it back. I am annoyed to have experienced this twice thusfar
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AntonyStark:
Its the lead, changing chargers might not work but new charger/lead will.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] najaboy:
What you experienced is called a cum hoc logical fallacy. The singular effect of your advice would be a shortening of the battery's serviceable lifespan.

[HTC Amaze 4G] thedarkarc:
I'm having problems with a brand new htc amazing. The Wifi connects but only for a while and only at like 1 bar even if I'm right next to my router. My Ipod and other devices can connect just fine. After connecting it'll remain connected for a while then disconnect. Currently I tried it on stock ics 4.0.3, Energy Rom, and Speedy Rom. Is there anything I can do to fix this? I've also searched at the T mobile forums and I've read some about the wifi driver or something causing this.

Any help would be appreciated.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
From other post it usually ends up being the router. Cheap router ? Old, Not up to date with firmware? You should go to stock and call it in to HTC. See what they say. They will ask you for the serial number and software number of your device. You may find the serial number in the ‘Settings’ menu under ‘About Phone’. The software information will be under ‘About Phone’ and then ‘Software Information’.

I'd like to know how this turns out since many others have this problem but no solid solution yet I don't see anybody deal with tech support either.
[HTC Amaze 4G] thedarkarc:
Turned out that HTC amaze does not like my router on wep64 I switched it to WPA aes and the problem went away. Which us kind of weird since every device works just fine in my house with wep64

[HTC Amaze 4G] thedarkarc:
I have finally found out the real root cause of this it seems it was my iPod interfering with the amaze wifi. Tested it several tines every time I turn it on the WiFi on amaze takes a dive and eventually dissconnects. I really feel like throwing my iPod out the window for all the headache and trouble it caused.
[HTC Amaze 4G] fcpelayo:
Can you get in more depth
[HTC Amaze 4G] thedarkarc:
When I try to connect to my home network with my ipod connected to my wifi at the same time my Htc amaze will connect to the wifi but it'll drop to one bar and hold the connection for like 30s. This happens with Stock ics from htc, Speedy Rom, Energy rom. However, once I turn off the wifi on my iPod 4th gen my htc amaze is able to properly connect at full bar without dropping wifi connection.

[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyInTheCorner:
1. Boot into recovery (4ext is required)

2. Wipe all data (Cache, Dalvik e.t.c) (or use the ARHD superwipe zip)

3. Install from SD Card

3. Go through the Aroma installer (interactive installer, allows you to customise the ROM when flashing it)

4. *IMPORTANT*: IF THE INSTALLER ASKS YOU TO REBOOT SELECT NO AND MANUALLY REBOOT FROM 4ext RECOVERY!

5. Enjoy!

Hi,

A friend gave me a broken Desire. It wouldn't turn on at all. I have a Desire myself so tried my battery, still nothing. I also tried his battery in mine and it works perfect, so I don't think its a battery issue.

I put the Desire into the freezer for 15 minutes and it turned on fine. Booted up, I was able to USB tether it and put a ROM zip file on the SD card. I then tried to do a "adb devices" and it rebooted to the "quietly brilliant" logo and made the boot sound.

It then vibrated 7 times and turned off.

Now It won't turn on again.

I've pulled the battery about 5 times and its still not doing anything. No light comes on when I put it on charge.

The phone is well past warranty at this stage. I'm not sure but I think its either a PVT-3 or PVT-4.

If I put it in the freezer again, and flash a new ROM, is there any way it can be usable again, or is the only option to buy a new motherboard off eBay? OR sell the phone for parts?

Thanks.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bortak:
Several vibrations at boot indicate to a hardware issue. AFAIK it was something to do with the CPU.

The Desire has a mainboard in 2 parts. The upper and lower board. You could just try to buy the one with the CPU (forgot which one that was, do some digging) and connect it to your phone, and I don't see a reason why it wouldn't work.

Another thing i just noticed there.

It was running fine until I did an "adb devices". Then it rebooted and died again, just after I pulled it out of the freezer.

Is it possible I'm getting all this trouble because of a USB brick?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nlooooo:
Your device is pvt3 so it's not likely that you have a motherboard overheating issue.

My question is do you have htc sync installed, cause ruu requires it, or at least fastboot and bootloader drivers?

BTW, I installed a custom ROM on the phone and its still behaving the same way. Will a RUU make any difference to just reflashing a ROM?
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eoinzy:
The HTC Sync drivers detected the phone and it then rebooted to some black HTC update screen.

It then started to update, but then vibrated 7 times. The progress bar moved on a slight bit after that but now its stuck on 26%.

Also, on the phone, where the progress bar is, at the end of it, theres a little white triangle with a white exclamation point inside it...

I'm curious should I pull the battery or what?

Wait for some more time, but now I'm definitely sure that you have a HW issue.

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eoinzy:
Well I tried with the freezer again.

This time it managed to go to 100%. The RUU said it was successful and that my phone was now ready for use.

It then rebooted to the white HTC screen, and then vibrated 7 times.

I held volume down and power and it booted into the menu, and I saw the HBOOT is now gone from the 0.93.0001 to some 1.00 version, so the phone was definitely updated anyway.

Its back in the freezer again now. lol

Once it boots, is there any apps I can install that can test the hardware for faults, so I can finally know for sure what the problem is?

[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eoinzy:
Well, it booted anyway. Went about half way through the setup wizard, as far as the "Connect to wifi" part, then it rebooted to the white screen, where it vibrated 7 times.

Whats odd this time is that it rebooted after the 7 vibrations, and then booted again to the white screen and vibrated again 7 times. It rebooted like this 3 or 4 times, and now its off again.

I pulled the battery, and turned it on again and now its doing the same. Vibrating 7 times, rebooting, vibrating 7 times, rebooting etc. This time its in a loop and has rebooted 9 times so far, and counting. Each time vibrating 7 times and rebooting...
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mortenmhp:
There should be no doubt that it's hardware issues(and as the freezer works, it is likely some overheating of sorts). Either throw it out or buy a cheap ass desire with a broken screen second hand and replace whatever is broken om the new device with what you have from you friend.

Also stop freezing it, it will likely cause water dammage inside at some point.

[Huawei Ideos X5 U8800] Ricard_M:
Hello,

I have 2 Huawei X5 that were running DZO's aurora without any problems until a couple of days ago.

Sudenly one of them lost the sound during calls. To see if this was a hardware problem I tried to install a different rom, but I had no success. CWM doesn't accept any of the roms I tried (Miui and aurora). I also tried to downgrade this phone but after it gets to the installation screen it freezes.

The other phone, does not allow access to CWM and the only thing I can do is try to downgrade from the SD card. I already tried downgrading to 2.2 and 2.3 with no success.

When I connect any of the phones to the PC I cannot access the phones internal memory like I used to. This only happened after I installed aurora. Previously I also encountered problems downgrading from 2.3 to 2.2 and I managed to do it through the internal memory. I only had to put the dload folder there and reboot with vol up+vol down+power and the downgrade done normally. So now, since i can't do this, I'm completely clueless......

Do you guys think that the phone with access to CWM can be fixed by restoring a backup from another phone? If so can someone PLEASE be kind enough to send me one?:D
