Hmmm, this is a weird one guys.
I can charge my X10 only if it is plugged in to the USB port via the computer. However, when it is plugged directly into the power socket, it does not charge. Now, I've tried two different chargers, and both work when charging another device (my iPod Touch).
I don't understand. The cord can't be broken, since it works when charging from my computer? Yet, the charger (the thing that plugs into the wall) can't be broken either, since another charger didn't work and also both have the ability to charge my iPod.
What's up? :S
Thanks in advance.
NOTE: Even when charging while off works on the computer, just not when it's plugged in (and I am not using a custom kernel either). I doubt the ROM matters (since it still has the above problem while charging when off), but even so, I'm using v061 of Wolfbreak's 6.1.3 ROM.
Bump bump, bump it up!
Do you use the original SE in-wall charger? If not, thats the problem, if yes I recomend to test with a different wall charger (eg. from another device)
May be the cable it faulty? Because the PC charging uses a less amount of Volts (to my knowledge) and the charging while connected to PC is very slow. Did you try with any other Official cable?
It could possibly be your cable as mine broke a few weeks back (Same Problem), I just replaced the cable now its fine
Guys :-/
Went out and bought a new cable, and still not charging from the power Only from the slower laptop USB port :'(
I think it may be the X10 itself..
I am still suffering from this problem And sometimes when it's connected to the PC and displays 'charging', it instead discharges

Maybe the connector in the phone is broken????
Yep your usb port is broken, mine did exactly the same thing. You will have to send it to fonebiz in rockdale, nsw. I just got my phone back, took 6 weeks to repair!

Rockdale? 6 weeks?! Not going that far. :-/ I can live with just charging from the PC at the moment.
Thanks though Sad news indeed
Is is still under warranty? It will eventually stop charging from the PC too. I was waiting for parts to arrive so maybe they have them in stock now. That was 6 weeks from melbourne and back.
Going through the same thing in the US. I was told repair would be 5-7 days, but I'm sure I'm looking longer. If it comes back within the time frame they gave me I will be pleasantly surprised. I hope you're still under warranty and do your self the favor and send it in or soon you will have a very expensive paper weight. Good Luck!
I went through the exaxt same thing. It stopped charging from the wall but could only charge from computer but eventually stopped charging altogether.
Did you try taking out the battery and plugging in with the original se microusb cabe to the wall. After 5 min. put the battery in. First time didnt work for me but then i took out the battery again and put it back in immediately and then it turned on.
try getting a usb-to-wall charger, and plugging your computer usb cable into wall.

Out of curiosity, how long before each of your X10's stopped charging altogether? :S
Because, for me, it's been longer than two months and throughout that time I've managed to keep charging it via the computer.
Thanks.

I've 3 usb-to- chargers here:
From a MP20 phone, generic charger that can't charge my phone and also can't charge most of other devices, output power and voltage are low.
From an old Ipaq(not ipad) it does charge my x10 for some reason takes longer than the original, it says on it 1000mA and 5V, I don't remember the real amp and voltage on it.
And the original one, always charge really fast(2 hours for a full 0 to 100% when the phone is ON)
Conclusion, buy and original charger if you not using one, which seems to be the case.
OR, update your baseband if possible, as battery issues are normally related to baseband are normally the cause of this errors.
To make sure you can always try to do a SEUS repair.

Sorry to say this, but your are wrong man.
My charger says 5.0V which is exact the same voltage as any USB ports(exception for some internal USB ports used commonly for bluetooth and other low consumption devices that use 3.0 to 3.3V).
The difference is mainly on the amount of power amp it can supply, the original usb cable + wall charger provides 700mA, while in the PC USB 2.0 ports provide 500mA, 1.0 USB provide 100mA and 1.1 I don't remember now, generic usb wall chargers say sometimes they provide 500mA but they mostly provide 30l0mA and sometimes they do not provide on 5.0V they oscillate between 4.6 to 5.2V a good usb port have to provide 4.95V to 5.1V any difference from this may even burn a phone if higher and not charge or reduce a battery life if too lower.
Everytime a battery is not charged up the end of 100% they battery life gets a bit reduce as next time even if you leave it to charge up to 100% it won't really be at 100%, this can only be seen by measuring the battery voltage after the charge, fully charge it must reach up to 4.7V
on the battery or something like this.

If the cable is too thin(like 1.0 usb cables they can't handle 500mA if connected to an already extended usb port it may not get recognized and also not even charge.
Laptops usb ports may not allow 500mA it different for every laptop, some work, some doesn't and others your have to set that on bios.

Always when connected to the PC it should say charging, if it did say discharging at some point then there was something wrong.
But charging on the pc is very slow and not good.

Is there any other model of charger than a usb-to-wall? Sorry my lack of knowledge on this, but i never saw a wall direct charger for x10.
Thanks button is appreciated, rsrsrs
Hey guys, I have x10 mini pro and I lost my charger 2 days ago. Luckily I lost only the charger,not the data cable so I could use my pc to charge it via usb port. But I notice that charging via usb is very slow,i need to turn off my phone to get it faster,so I tried to use my samsung monte's charger since it use micro usb too. But every time I connect the charger my phone get very weird,i cannot touch the screen. And sometimes the screen like touching itself on random point,it keeps on and on even I disconnect the charger,i have to pull the battery out to force the phone off and then turn it on again. I have tried blackberry charger and had the same problem. It's so hard to find SE original charger on my place any1 has a solution?

I use an old Nokia N85 charger which works a treat and charges fast too.
I tried the charger for HTC Wildfire and it worked normally. during charging, I had no problems with the phone
Any charger that outputs more than 500 mA will do fine.
Thx guys, i'll try it

I just noticed this today since i left my power adaptor at home. i attempted to charge my x10 with rooted stock 2.3 GB rom using its original cable which is connected to a PC. it did not charge!
back when i was still in 2.1, i have no issues in charging my x10 through this process.
anyone experienced this? or any expert can enlighten me what's happening to my x10
thank you so much in advance
Mine one is not charging even plugged to ac charger. It shows that it's charging but battery keeps getting down. Im on GB official.

i configured mine. i tried several unplug and plug cycle.. this kind of battery is common due to installation of new rom.

Hello, my Huawei y300 (u8833) only turn on and works while I plug in my usb cable either (charge). My phone doesn't turn on when i press the power button and I'm on just my battery, amazingly it turns on instantly after i plug in the usb charger and remove the battery. So i got a little tired of having to plug in my phone all the time and not use it on battery. Any help? I dropped my phone 9 months ago and it didn't work back then but i never tried the usb cable on without battery. But now after 9 months i plugged in usb cable and no battery and *boom* it works. Any advice as to what is going on? Can i ever get it to work from my battery? (BTW there is a red notification light (not blinking) if i put battery in along with usb cable. Thanks for any help.
Update: Somehow its charging my battery!
Update: (PS:I'm rooted and have cwm)
Update: I'm fuc*ing stupid, its now working on battery! Sorry to have waster your time
