TP2 Not Charging!

defdumblind · #1 (**permalink**) 11-13-2009, 02:04 AM

Ok so i charged it yesterday around 1am got a full charge then again when i was driving at around 1pm. Got home alittle while ago plugged it in and nothing. I had also tried it in the car charger on my way home and got nothing but thought the car charger was busted. pluged the usb into my laptop and got nothing. So im guessing my mini usb port is busted.

Questions:
1) Has this happened to any1 else?
2) Any1 know a fix for this?
3) If i take it to a sprint repair shop will it be a problem that im running a custom rom?

Does your phone turn on?

When you connect it to the computer does your computer say it is connected?

Have you tried hard resetting the device or putting it in bootloader mode?

i got about 30% battery left so its on.
when i connect to the computer it does nothing
i havent done a hard reset yet cause i cant get it to synce and i might need the numbers to make a call with the last bit of battery left.
I dont know how to get to bootloader mode or what to do once im there im still new to this
should i give the hard reset a go?

Depends on the tech, If tyey are morons you maybe ok. If they no anythong you could in up with a voided warr. You might try to do it over the phone thats what I did on the 2nd one. I had been to a non corp store to try to get another chrger because I was out of town,She tried about ten diff. chrgrs= no go. So I left and called tech service next day TP@ was @ my house.

To bad I didnt get home for 2 more days. lol
