Hi guys,
I have being away for a while and stopped flashing roms...I had chuckyrom tabastic and was working just fine until the phone stopped being recognized by the computer..tried two computers so far, one with win7 another with win vista. The phone is charged but activesync doesn't work so the cable should be fine...can anyone help me fix this issue, please???
Had the same issue hopefully now sorted . i was using the usb cable that came with the phone and it worked perfectly ,just bought an accesory pack form ebay with another usb cable ,left the original one in the wall charger and went to use the other one from ebay ,it charged the phone while in the pc but activesync would'nt recognise it ,tried all different things but still would'nt work .
Changed back to the original cable and now everythings working again ,maybe try another cable ?

Today I wanted to charge my phone via USB. But now it is discharging. Why ? I'm using another microUSB cable, not original one. Phone says charging(USB) but i've lost 40% so far.
Mine does this too - I've found turning it off, letting it charge for a bit in the off state, then turning it back on again gets it to charge properly again
I have read many threads around the web, and there seems to be many errors concerning charging errors with the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro.
In my case it was the usb micro cable it self.
Day 1
I received the mob.
Charged it to full, using usb cable and AC/DC/USB-adapter, while i was turned on.
Day 2
Checked out the mob until there was only 15% left on the battery indicator.
Trying to charge just like day1...faliure...nothing happens :-(
Trying to charge via PC...faliure...nothing happens :-(
Trying to charge just like day1 with mob turned off...succes...it is charging
I let it charge to the next day.
Day 3.
Morning...i can see it has stopped charging...it must be full ?
I turn on the mob.
Nope only 46% ??? Damn.
I try charging while on, via adapter and PC...faliure :-(
I leave it on the table for about 2 hours and then come back.
I plug out the cable and...hmmm...the micro connector is a bit warm...hmmm
The mob i cold all over...it might be the cable thats faulty
I get my HTC HD2 usb micro cable...plug it in...and plug it to adapter
Succes Its charging...also via PC.
It seems:
The standard SE micro usb cable (that we are warned, only to use) is faulty.
I have read that many, have got their mob back from service repair, and i still dosent work ? Time after time.
It must be because, the service repair center is using their own micro usb cable, and there by not discovering what the real error is....the standard cable following the mini is defekt.
I have written to SE in Denmark...im waiting for their answer...if they are wise, then they are going to check their hole stock of cables
Well i got an answer fro SE
Guess what the answer was ???
"We have never had errors like that in our service department!"
I know the are lying, or just ignoring errors, because my daugthers friend had the exact same problem...witch SE couldent repair (2 attempts).
Posetive thing:
SE offered to change my micro usb cable to a new 1 (faulty one i guess)
I wrote back to SE:
I do not need a new cable since i have 3 working noname micro usb cables!
And explained the hold shabang 1 more time, telling them that the repair center would not catch the error unless, they used the exact same cable as the costumer!.
Since then i havent heard from SE
Conclusion:
SE doesnt give a damn about their costumers problems
Consequence:
I dont wanna buy an SE cellphone ever again!!! (this phone was for my daughter).
From now on i stick to HTC...ive got at HTC HD2 and i just LOOOOOOVE IT
PS. The micro usb cable for my HD2 works perfect with the mini pro. No charging errors at all
hello...
Well guys i was with the same problem... the mobile was discharging when connected to USB port... so i just changed the USB port and it begun to charge!!!!!
SOmetimes the USB port has no power to charge so u may change it...
for me it worked well.

I have this problems, since few days ago.
And after a search in many web pages, the solutions didn´t appear, I don´t know, if this a issue whit the usb cable or the usb slot in the phone, I really try differents things, turn on while push the camera button, or the - vol button, sometimes work, but is really a pain in the a...

thank you for your helpful message t.siddharth
i had the same problem with my phone, initially i replaced the cable then i sent the phone for repair twice as the first time it was not fixed.
6 months later the charging fault reoccurs, so i took phone apart myself and found that the mini usb socket had come away from the pcb.
I cannot seem to get the phone to identify on the PC with anything but the Samsung USB cable.
The problem is... I think I already lost it.
I have 4 basically new microUSB cables from various sources and none of them will do anything but charge.
WTheck has samsung done?
Did you try changing the mode on your phone from Change Only to the Hard Drive one once you connect it?
Try a different USB port. This phone works on every USB cable I have in my possession.
i find mine charges really slow unless i use the samsung one:/

Because the phone only charges it does not adapt a mode and therefore wont' let me change it.
edit: fixed it. Problem was I used a program to try and turn on UMS mode and it wasn't working. Wouldn't do any other mode until I turned it back.
But I still have had problems usb cables. The one with my Nook for example wont work at all and it worked with both my nook and my atrix.
S3 wont even recognize on a mac.
surprize me with something amazing android your boring me.
Mine works with the Sensation cable on my main PC, my G2X cable on my laptop and with my Lumia cable in my gym (charger). It also works fine at work with a generic cable (on a PC). Either your phone or your cable is defective.
EDIT: make sure your drivers are up to date on your PC.
Mine works fine with BlackBerry/HTC/HP cables.
Since i got my atrix i am dealing with a very weired issue, everytime with the new android installation everythings work out of box but after using it,1-2 days after if i want to charge my phone i cant,atrix doesnt recognize at all as same goes to the pc connection as usb doesnt recongnize at all.But if i reformat and install a new android then everything works until i start to use and then the same case again.
Most weired thing is i own a ipad too and if i use the usb cable on the ipad charger i can charge my atrix.I m really confuse whats going on on my atrix.if someone has any solution or any idea i will be greatfull.
Hi.
I have an Xperia X10 that I gave to my husband. He's good with computers etc.. and he went ahead and unlocked and rooted this phone. It's working awesome - EXCEPT - when you plug it into the computer via USB the computer will NOT recognize it. It says exactly, " "USB Device Not Recognized
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctions, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message"".
Here is a bit of background info:
Before my husband rooted the phone etc. the micro usb port on the phone wasn't working properly - it was loose and you would have to really wiggle it, bend it etc.. to make the debug engage. He did get it to flash/root/unlock/install custom rom successfully ( he installed doomkernel 2.6.29-modFXP-DooMKernel-v06) all while the phones usb wasn't working ideally. At this point he was trying out some settings and branded it as a X10i Generic. (This phone WAS a Rogers phone and we are in Canada). He then wanted to change the branding since x10i wasn't working too great. At this point the USB port on the phone wouldn't engage into debug or charge anymore so we took it to a repair place and they soldered the usb port back - they told us this was common (them coming loose). After they soldered it they said it wouldn't go into debug and that it was because (probably) of the firmware my husband put on but didn't really know.
From that day on this phone has never connected to the computer successfully - the computer won't even recognize it as a memory card - as soon as you plug it in it tries to install drivers and then the computer says exactly this::
"USB Device Not Recognized
One of the USB devices attached to this computer has malfunctions, and Windows does not recognize it. For assistance in solving this problem, click this message"
Our computer is running Windows 7 (64bit) - and the phone use to work fine.
We have tried using SDK tool, installing drivers manually when the phone is plugged in, but the computer will just say that it is already up to date, and it names the phone ' UNKNOWN DEVICE" and has the exclamation box next to it indicating it's malfunctioned. Sony software (PC Comp. etc) also will not detect the phone.
Have been trying to get this working for about 2 months now. 2 months of reading, google searches, more reading, trying idea after idea, and it doesn't work.
Has this happened to anyone else? Can someone help out here? Is this a firmware/software problem (maybe because it's been branded as a x10i)? Or could this all be a matter of the USB port being improperly fixed?
Facing same USB malfunctioned issue
I am facing the same issue since quite long since i have rooted my Samsung Galaxy 2 SGH T-989. My phone gets connected properly but when i try to transfer any of the files from computer to my phone. It gets disconnected automatically after copying the stuff till 5% to 10% and shows ''USB device has malfunctioned".
I am also trying to search and rectify this issue, but till now i have found nothing. Please let me know if you come across of kind of solution for it.
Im sometimes facing the that unrecognized USB but, everthing working.
Sent from my X10 using xda app-developers app
I faced the exact same problem with my x10 mini. It wouldn't charge properly nor connect to my PC. I would have to wiggle the micro USB port and cable to get it working, which actually got me wondering if the problem was really the USB port. After I've bought a male-male USB to micro USB cable everything worked fine. Same thing happened with a brand new x10. I tried to use the USB cable I bought instead of the original one which came with the phone and you wouldn't guess, everything works fine.
So try to connect it with another USB - micro USB cable.

We have already tried connecting it to all of the (10) usb ports on our computer and we have tried NUMEROUS cables ( between my husband and I we have probably 8 cables, and have tired them all)
I am sure my problem is different from everyone here becuase i did alot of digging and cudnt find any solution to my problem. So my problem is that a month ago i got my samsung's original charger not working anymore, Which turned out that just adapter is faulty. so i bought an apple adapter for my s3, which worked quite well. But a few hours ago i found my samsung galaxy s3 not charging. i flashed my rom again, did factory restore, anything i cud do as a first aid. i did it. i checked my phone on my bros charger but still no success. and his charger is working fine with his mobile, I have noticed that it connects without taking a second when i restart phone in download mode. But doesnt plug in to my laptop aswell( But works when phone is in download mode).
Note: My personal charger is working fine on my bro's cell.
Thanks!!

Try a different charger on your phone, if that works your cable needs to be replace or charger with cable replaced, if a different charger does not work then your phones USB port is damaged and needs a service repair.
There are multiple micro connections so it may connect to your PC in download mode but if the connections that link the charger are not working it wont charge.
So try a deferent charger and a different USB cable if neither make the phone charge the USB port on the phone needs to be looked at by a technician to repair it.
