Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

So I've been using regular USB chargers to charge the phone. I have a cheapo car charger that was working fine and charging the phone. For some weird reason now, those USB chargers will not work with the phone. The phone basically does not detect them plugged even though this was working fine since I had the phone.

Now the only way I can get the phone to charge or connect to the computer is to use that HTC plug that has the video out and the headphones ports.

I'm completely baffled as other chargers were working fine. I haven't installed anything new in the past couple of days.

Maybe it is just that USB cord. I am pretty sure you have tried another but if not go ahead and do so. There isn't anything to say see it is responding to other charges or cords. Good Luck. ](*,)

ummmmmmmmm....... ****cough I Knew That cough*** thx lol

Tried plenty of cords and still won't work. Only way it will charge is it I use the HTC plug. Really weird because it was working fine all these days. Now I gotta get a different car charger or carry the plug around wtf.

If the phone is overheated, it will not charge. I'm not sure if this is related to your issue, but if you put the phone near something cool (ice, freezer, etc...) then see if it will charge...

Should I try a hard reset?

Re: Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

Make sure your Power setting, battery don't charge if hooked to PC is not checked.

What dl said is probably the issue..

im having the same issue.. using a non HTC usb while connected to my laptop and it works for a few minutes, then i see its no longer charging.

when i use the HTC cord while hooked to my laptop, it charges just fine.

Re: Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

Maybe your cord have a short somewhere. Have you tried another aftermarket cord?

Re: Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

Yup its not checked. There is no over heating, no nothing. Just won't work out without the plug. I tried plenty of usb chargers EVEN the one that came with this phone but it won't work unless I use the small plug.

Re: Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

Sounds like the port is messed up.
Standard MINI usb plugs messed up my moguls plug and it will only work with the adapter now or if you put pressure on it a certain way.

My phone will actually stop charging during data sometimes, its really annoying.
GL with a fix.

Will HTC warranty this phone?

Re: Really weird USB charging/data issue
 

Yes.. HTC will warranty the phone for up to one year... Make sure you have all your purchasing information handy.. It will take a while to process though from what I have heard.. Also.. You can go to Sprint and ask for a replacement.. I believe they will swap it out, even if you don't have TEP.. If it's a hardware issue..

Also.. Check this out for more info on the miniUSB and ExtUSB tips...
