My 3vo's micro USB is giving me problems charging. Im a former owner of the EVO 4g and never had a problem with it. I got a my 3vo from the early premier sales online. Let's hope this is not a common thing.

I hope not too haf two evo4g that port when bad. I hoped being on side on 3vo that was one reason it was moved beside battery.
This "weak micro USB port" issue would be what...? "You said it was "giving me problems charging"...what kinds of problems?
The micro USB cable that came with the Evo 3D doesn't even fit into my phone.
I'm currently using the old evo 4g cable.
I had issues with USB ports a lot on the OG Evo...Sprint tried telling me it was my fault a couple times even though it was a known issue...Telling me I had to go through insurance...
Anyway...On the 3vo I find that my Best Buy chargers have trouble working....My OEM charger is fine...

The port was only charging when it was untouched and in a specific position. It would flash from charging to connect charger as I adjusted cable to the sweet spot. Now it won't charge at all no matter how I set the cable into it. The cable has enough play to rock in all directions. My battery is almost done and this might be my last post until I have my 3vo replaced tomorrow.

Bad charging port
I had a bad one on my OG EVO. Looks like I have the same on my 3d. Need to block out a day to be without phone, unroot etc to bring to sprint.
I have the same issue but only with HTC cables. I have a generic one I use at work that works perfect. My wifes og evo cable gives me the same problem. I can't tell if its the cables or my phone. I think cables though because the generic one I have works fine.

Just as the post says how does it work, I have the feature on my Rom and I went to Best Buy and bought their $50 dollar cable but I got nothing on my TV's. I think I got audio once but no picture so other than plugging the cable into the phone and into the tv and turning it to the right input what else us there because I did all of that?

Tv out
Ya you do need to connect the wall charger, but for some reason does anyone know why it doesn't actually charge my phone? While using it my power drains very slowly.
The mhl adapter and phone is being charged at the same time. It's a weak charge to begin with when you aren't displaying anything. Just have to deal with it.

I knew this was going to happen, I am not talking about mhl's, I know how that works. I'm talking about the function where you can use the headphone port to use a RCA type cable to play or send images and or videos to your tv.
Does any one know how this function works?

I'm pretty sure that even though the ROM you're on may support it that this phone isn't capable of it. I've never heard of anyone getting that to work. Let us know if you do figure it out though. I just don't think that the headphone jack can output video. It only does audio. I believe its a hardware limitation.

Olympus trinity 3D beatless has it and I asked how it works but have not gotten an answer.

You know that some roms are ported from other phones. Some settings will make its way over. There might be a setting for this, but from what I have been told is that the hardware will never support it.

This. What i do also is turn my screen brightness all the way down and it helps greatly to last longer while doing hdmi stuff

EVO 3D does not do this. Some put it into ROMs and said it worked, but no one has actually done it. This is hardware limitation. Anyway, use MHL it'll do HD and Dolby.
hi the first think sorry for my english
i saw in ebay .. the micro usb converter to hdmi its work for samsug galaxy s2 ... htc evo 3d... htc sensation ... its a small converter from the micro usb to hdmi .... i payed one in ebay ... and im waiting for that ... if that work i will write again here

micro usb to hdmi
Evo 3d uses mhl. I didnt think hdmi would work...

All the micro usb to HDMI i saw after a quick search were indeed MHL adapters. If you get a MHL, one end is male micro usb plug and the other is male HDMI plug.
Hi, my touchscreen is useless when my charger or headphones is plugged in on my S X S. It thinks I'm touching everywhere on the bottom of the screen. When nothing is connected then it's 100% fine. Anyone else having these problems?

Your charger and/or cable are not original - am I right?

I kind of thought that was the issue. My arc was not on a standard lead.
My XperiaS is on standard cable and does not have this problem.

New doesn't mean they aren't defective.
It means it has a flaw made in production, not that they are old or worn.
I have this same problem. No matter what I plug in. It can be charger, aux cable, headphones. All the same effect. It long presses stuff at the bottom. Meaning the 3 capacitive buttons, 4 app shortcuts on launcher and usually the space bar. It's truly annoying

well since it seems only a few people are experiencing it, I don't think it's a normal issue with the device...
I switch between Sony/BB/Whatever I have laying around for cables all the time and have never experienced this issue (along with various headphone cables: Sennheiser, Sony). It sounds like a device fault :/.
Have you by chance posted something on the Sony forums about it?

This issue is normal when the charger is plugged in, but I've never heard it in conjunction with headphones.
It is because of very low parasitic currents which occur if you connect your device with the mains (= charge it).
If the transformer is of high quality, those currents are near zero and of course it's also a cable issue. Small manufacturing tolerances can cause high impacts on that.
Seems people are having this problem with multiple Xperia devices and with this app:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.metalev.multitouch.visualizer2
You can clearly notice the problem. Multitouch itself hardly works when plugged in, doesn't even register 2 fingers. But when unplugged it recognizes 7 fingers!
I FOUND THE POSSIBLE CAUSE AND SOLUTION FOR IT!!
In my case I removed the shatterproof sheet that is preinstalled because I stupidly scratched it. I failed at putting on 2 (two!) screenprotectors. So I decided to call it off and use it without a protector.
When testing with the Multi-touch app, you clearly see a difference in behavior when connected to the charger, headphones or any other device.
First I tried with a small piece of cloth between my screen and finger and saw great improvement. I had some old Nintendo DS screen protectors lying around and tested with those too on my screen. And surprise surprise. All problems were gone.
So my tip to all for this is:
Try a screenprotector on first as it might fix your problem!
DAMN! Why did I remove mine??
Edit: I'm getting the exact same result

I am also experiencing this issue..and this is annoying. VERY VERY ANNOYING!

Hi guys!
I seem to be having a problem with charging my phone recently and was wondering if I was alone in the issue
My charger cable seems to be very funny on the phone end. Sometimes if I wiggle it it'll charge or connect to my PC, but other times its just useless and won't connect.
Is anyone else having problems with it?
Is it more likely to be the cable or the phone?
I don't really want to shell out for another one of these though, as a budget phone its been great.
But seeings as I'll be starting work very soon I'll soon be working my way towards a Galaxy nexus or similar. So I would just get by on a cheaper phone if ya see what I mean?
Please reply :3

Try another cord bro.
Probably its cord problem

It's definitely the cord
Well, come to think about it, I have been charging it every night for the past year (literally). So inserting it that many times is definitely going to have some effect. Cheers for the suggestions guys

So all of a sudden my wife's dna is having problems charging wirelessly. It will charge a minute then stop a few minutes then charge a minute more, and so on. So in effect she cannot charge wirelessly any more.
I have read very little about this problem but what i have read is all hardware.
She is unlocked, rooted, s-off, viper 1.1.3 on latest radio.
Questions
1. Has anyone else saw this problem?
2. Is it fixable?
3. If not is it worth a return for a dna that could be un- un-lockable?
4. If we did replace it, do i really need to ruu, re-lock first..?... i mean if its gonna say relocked whats the point.

Wat kinda wireless charger is she using? I hear some r having problems

We have 2. A nokia from vzw. And an energizer double. My phone (dna) works fine on both. Hers did untill she got home today..

I had problems with my Nokia Fatboy. Can't even use it anymore. Don't want to send it back either. I bought an employee edition from a friend who works for Verizon and I don't really want to get a regular one.

I had trouble with both these chargers myself. My problem however was they would both charge phone perfectly with very little heat for about 4 or 5 hours, THEN at 99% charge the phone would heat up in the next hour or two to 132 degrees F which at that point, phone shut itself off and smelled like burning plastic. Neither of the chargers would "kick out" at all, and like I said they worked perfectly to 99%, but I kept waking up to a red hot powered down phone. I suspect it was the phone, but I still believe some incompatibilities exsist. Many reports of problems with wireless charging on these phones. As far as answering the op questions, can't help much. I will try the orb one of these days.

Well.. dont really know if it is hardware anymore lol.
I factory reset. Wiped caches. Rebooted set up, restored apps and it charged fine last night. Woke up to a cool charged dna...?
Dont know why or how but hears hoping it stays this way.
Wife loves the dna, loves viper. So dont wanna risk losing it with a phone on the ota that cant be unlocked.
Thanks for all the input and help guys.
