[Q] Htc HD2 doesn't charge or sync via usb - HD2 General

Hi all,
There is no discussion ,where i have found the solution, so starting a new topic.
Have been struggling with my phone. The problem started when i had android 2.2 on my htc, and i wanted to charge my phone. The problem was, it didnt charge! i used original wall charger and no results, the orange light wasnt on and the phone didnt charge. Then i installed wp7 using magldr and it didnt charge also. Now i downloaded and installed stock rom windows phone 6.5 and tried to charge and it still doesnt work! also no sync on the computer. When i was in magldr and installed wp7 on the device, the usb connection worked, because i used nand rom and it did connect, because i made it through the install.
Can it be a problem of my htc phone, that the charging dock has broken or something?
Have to say, that i did drop the phone that day, but after the drop i was able to connect the phone with macbook pro and it did charge, but then i just unplugged it and since then no charging! was on android then, and didnt do anything.
Please help!

Sounds like you might have a faulty USB cable. Try using a different cable and see if that helps. If it is not a faulty USB cable, youy might have a damaged USB port on your HD2. Does your HD2 work as a mass storage device with your computer?

problem htc hd port usb

I have a HTC TOUCH HD, I can not connect all'Active Sync, I tried several computers but I do not recognize the smartphone anywhere. When you restart the HTC so provisional bottom line on the white seems to me not written but Serial USB, the device to a USB seems my friend, I think that is the problem, someone help me know?
First of all have you ever been able to use the USB port on your phone to sync. If yes then it is possible a setting has changed. Go to Start><Settings>Connections and USB to PC. There is a tickbox for Faster Data, Try both ticking and unticking the box. If this does not work then i would Start with uninstalling and reinstalling Active sync for XP and WMDC if you are on Vista.
If this Fails then try Hard Resetting your phone to see if this helps at all. If you have never been able to USB it i possble there is a fault on the Port. Also does the phone charge? this uses the USB and if it does not charge then you know you have a fault.
tnx
The phone is charging when the battery is not fully discharged.
If the battery is discharged only half does not load, it's something very strange.
Then I noticed that pressing Power button down and you start your phone in foil and colored ce SERIAL written while on the phone to my friend's USB ce, this could be the problem?
Before working with usb port
UP
Uppppppppppppppppppppppppp
it's very likely the USB port is damaged

Is my HD2 defective?

My phone wont charge through USB. It charges using the same cable plugged into a wall adapter, and charges just fine with my wall adapter and car charger, it just wont charge when plugged into a computer.
As for some basic troubleshooting steps-
1) The phone is recognized and syncs on both PCs
2) Hasnt worked from day 1, Factory ROM, Hard Reset, and now with a flashed ROM
3) Uninstalled and reinstalled ActiveSync etc
4) When it connects to a PC it prompts what I would like to do (PC and Phone) Ive tried every option and the results are the same.
I'm out of ideas, and since Ive searched Im not sure if Im an idiot for expecting this thing to charge, or if my phone is defective. I figured I'd ask here before calling T-Mobile since I hate calling Customer Service for anything.
Go into settings/system/power/battery and there should be a check box that says "When phone is on, do not charge the battery when connected to a pc"
make sure that is not checked.
Thanks, but its not checked.
Ive tried checking it, plugging in, and then unplugging, unchecking, then plugging back in.
Switch off your phone, then plug it into the computer. Does the orange charging led show up? If not, you may have a defective phone.
If it charges with a computer usb while switched off and doesn't when switched on, then there is some software problem.

have you tried plugging it in to a different usb port? or different computer? my guess is could be a bad usb port..
not necessarily a bad usb port, some simply don't push enough power to trigger charging. same test applies, though, try all usb ports, don't forget there are likely ports around back too. also test it on another pc if possible.

I forgot my USB cable at work but this sounds like a good idea I havent tried yet.
My laptops USB ports are fine, I use them all the time for my external hard drive which is also powered by the USB, my zune, wifes iPhone, etc. Not to mention I have the same result with my work computer, which charged my other phones.
I'll try this and post the results, thanks for the helpful responses. After this test, I'm calling T-Mobile and complaining.

[Q] Advice about state of iPAQ 614c

Hey everyone, I recently got hold of a HP iPAQ 614c from a friend, and was playing with it. I've had it about a week and so far it's been a lot of fun to play with. Downloaded and used the WM6.1 Manila and then WM6.5 Manila (v0.5) from this forum, and all was working super.
Now a day or so ago, I noticed my phone just totally stopped recognising the USB cable connected to it, and I need some advice as to what to do. It's not detecting the USB either in A/C charge mode, or when connected to my laptop, the laptop isn't detecting it as a device at all.
There is nothing wrong with either battery (a normal and a high capacity, both were working and charging fine before).
I've tried replacing, downgrading and re-upgrading the ROMs, and nothing seems to be working. I've also tried twiddling the cable connection to see if I can get it to respond (even temporarily, which would suggest a lose or damaged connection).
Luckily with the high capacity battery, I got about a week to fix it (if it's fixable) so long as I keep the wi-fi disabled.
Now what I want to know from you guys is if you think it's one of the following scenarios:
1. The USB interface on the phone is damaged (either from being knocked or dropped).
2. The cable has become damaged.
3. I've fudged something inside by using the unofficial ROMs.
And what, if anything I can do about it.
Much appreciated any help.
are you using the original charger?
HP614c recognizes the original charger and informs you about charging in other cases you need to turn on USB charging in system
if you have no response from USB it may be a damaged usb interface eg. the connector or charging IC or USB interface IC.
did you try on other PC/USB port or/and other cable
also check in device manager of PC for any suspicious looking USB devices

[Q] I cant connect ny hd2 on my computer

Hi im new here
I got my hd2 when it first came out running winmo 6.5 now i just cant connect it to the computer tried more than 1 computer and more than one cable when i connect it only charges i receive nothing on the computer like i used to before i have tried everything in the setting usb to pc still same thing
please help me how can i connect it
and i also tried hard resetting it more than once same thing
under settings tab -----other , there will be a usb to pc button
I bet you have tried all setting changes so since you have done a hard reset and it still doesnt work, it has to be your micro USB cable. I had the exact same problem as yours and i feared that it was the micro USB port that was faulty. But then i tried a different micro USB cable and it works perfectly. Hence, it is likely to be your cable. Im not bad mouthing HTC because of the amazing work they have done, but their accesories seem to be a bit down on quality. My original micro USB cable is now frayed and almost severed, my Touch HD micro USB is also frayed and the original earpiece is now experiencing audio balance issues.
the thing is the cable that comes with the hd2 i lost it but when i was using it i could connect
but now im using nexus one cable and Nokia n900 cable to connect to the computer and it just charges like i said nothing appears
Have you tired different ports in your computer or tried reinstalling the drivers? To do that, uninstall the Activesync or Windows Mobile Device Center in your PC and reinstall it. Then try. If you still cannot connect your HD2 to the PC for USB mode, then im afraid the micro USB port in your HD2 is faulty. Try the above. Meanwhile, use the SD card method for flashing or transfer files using wi-fi or bluetooth.
Good Luck
If your HD2's USB port doesn't work you can connect to ActiveSync via bluetooth. I do that very often for a quick synchronization, and since HD2 has an Activesync profile it's easy to configure...
Anyway, check that "accept USB connections" option is selected in your pc ActiveSync configuration.
Most probably, he's facing the da** usb port breaking issue.

[Q] USB connection not working

Hello everyone, this is my first post and it´s about my Defy, which, for some reason, the USB port does not work to access the phone and/or the SD Card.
1: I did a soft and hard reset and the problem persists.
2: The phone does not show up on the device manager under Windows so not even an error message saying "Device not recognized" or something. Also, it won´t show up in Ubuntu.
3. The "Connect your charger" message shows up all the time.
4. No notification in the phone when plugged to the PC .
5. Even though I can´t access the phone from the PC, I still can´t charge it through the USB port.
6. I can connect/access the phone and SD Card using Wi-Fi (Motorola Phone Portal) but not USB. I can see "Plug in USB to launch" in Phone Portal but cannot press the button, only the one referring to Wi-Fi.
PS: This is my second Defy, the first one got the same problem so I got a new one... sadly, the it happened again.
PS2: I wonder if a USB 3.0 port has to do with anything? It´s the only thing that I noticed before the USB stopped working.
Any help or hint is greatly appreciated.
well, i don't think it's an usb3 problem ...
to be sure you could try to connect your phone with an older usb2 port computer ...
is the phone charging on wall charger and usb-cable ???
if not, it really sounds like a hardware failure ... then i would send it to customer service and tell them that there is the same problem again .. maybe the just repaired something and it's faulty again ... be sure, that they are changing the faulty things ...
if your phone is charging on wall charger, it could be that it is an problem with your pc ... try another one ...

1. I mentioned the USB 3.0 port because it was the only common thing just before the usb conection stopped working.
2. The phone charges normally using the wall charger or usb (2.0, 3.0) cable through the PC.
3. It does not matter what PC is connected to or the OS (Ubuntu, Win7)/
Thanks for the response!
It is possible to brick it. Wtih some phone's it seems to be a common error for usb ports to be blown.
Could also be the cable... My cable that came with the defy was already snatched after a few months. My screen started going on and of when I was charging it.

Is there a way to check for faulty hardware-related issues?
just test different cables, computers or even mobiles ... then you will see, what is faulty

What I meant was some software that check or even some kind of physical device.
Anyway, I know it´s not the cable or PC faulty but the phone itself. But I want to confirm if it´s software or hardware related and if there´s a fix.
Thanks!
Try using USB with logcat open. You might see something in the log that will tell you what's happening
