Ignore the title, looks like a mis-aligned pin and a coincidence.
-Stoney
Sounds like a coincidence to me. I really don't see how it's possible for that software to have done that.

Everything worked fine until that program crashed my phone (was able to charge via A/C adapter/usb cable/sync etc). I was able to replicate the crash (and only a hard-reset makes the O/S operational again).
perhaps it could have been a coincidence.... i do have the $6 a month insurance... i'm thinking i should try to get the Radio/ROM back to stock and just ship this f*cker back to verizon.
I got the verizon boot screen to appear, but it hangs.
Good news is the proper radio shows up,
bad news is these still appear:
bootloader 2.40.Olipro
ROM Version: 3.2.3
I can't seem to find a microSD version of the post-GPS update relocker (back to factory). The stock rom installation just hangs =(.
I'm guessing this would be a red flag for a warranty return?

flash back on a ROM that is supported, then run the titan relocker, and use microSD to flash back to stock after relocking...
Read instructions and download the Stock ROM and relocker from:
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=TitanStockHome
I'm going to attempt that now.
Actually i noticed one of the pins in the mini USB port wasn't aligned with the others, i moved the pin where i thought it should be, but i'm still not getting any power.
Does anyone have a high resolution picture of the mini-usb port?
I am now successfully running:
Phone: xv6800
ROM Version: nueROM v2.1 build 5068.rar
Radio Version: 3.42.02
1. i reflashed 3.42.02 (http://rs333.rapidshare.com/files/124696893/Titan_Radio_ROM_3.42.02.rar) via micro SD.
2. Flashed the RUU_signed.nbh from RUU_TITAN_SPRINT_WWE_3.56.651.0_RS_TITAN_3.42.02_SPCS2.04_PPST_0718_Ship
3. Rebooted before customization
4. Installed ftp://ppcgeeks.com/Titan/Users/No2Chem/nueROM v2.1 build 5068.rar from Micro SD (then ran verizon cusomization)
However, i still don't have usb power/sync.
I'm going to mess with the pins per these pics that were given to me from ppcgeeks:

I just took a picture of my mini-usb port on my HTC Titan (xv6800). I'm not sure what's wrong with it, i think it is a pin issue:

any advice on what to move would be appreciated!

What a coincidence. My port must have broke just before I flashed my phone via sd. When I attempted to sync after the flash, I couldn't charge or sync. I assumed it was the flash and re flashed several times till I finally looked at the port. The port design is not the sturdiest, especially for considering that it is intended for headphone use along with the usual charging/syncing. It's a set of pins with a unattached and easily broken plastic guide underneath. It's all too easy for the plastic guide to break or bend, exposing the pins to easy breakage/ bending. My cheap $90 Pharos GPS's port has contacts instead of pins embedded in the guide, seemingly a far more durable design. I swapped out my phone with Sprint. When I explained the problem to the tech, she didn't even look at the phone and immediately set up the swap. I took this to mean that this was an extremely common problem with the Mogul/6800. Good luck!
From your pic, I doubt you'll be able to straighten that pin without it breaking. Even if you did, it would likely break soon after. If Verizon won't swap and/or is high priced for the repair, http://www.pocketpctechs.com/main~unit~HTC_Mogul-906~area~repairs.htm

very interesting, i agree they need to do something about the design of these ports. Never again will i just jam in the usb cable.
Here's my fix....
YES!!! I TOTALLY FIXED IT! (with screenshots):
http://stashbox.org/166905/xv6800_fixed_mini_usb.png
I also broke my port. I went to plug in my charger got a hint of resistance and when I pulled the charger out I noticed one of the pins was laying flat against the back of the mini USB port. Well I tried go get a small knife and pry the pin back only for it to break. I was completly screwed. Now I have to charge my batteries and just trade out.

GREAT JOB! Congrats! You also have the most scratched up port I've ever seen . Hopefully, it will hold up. The plastic guide that is now bent away from the pins and likely loose like on my old Mogul isn't like that on a new unit and the straightened pin is weak at the bend. Be very careful using the port.

Thank you for posting those. I zoomed in on the portion i was interested in (from your photo) and it is still a little fuzzy http://stashbox.org/168469/mini_usb_1299x729xfuzzy.png.
Anyway I could get a high rez (no fuzzy) png or RAW of just the mini-usb port? I'm thinking the raw could be thrown up on rapidshare or something.
BTW your pics look great, thank you very very much!

It's not that the pins are raised, it's that the plastic piece (guide?) is not attached to the pins and may break and/or become loose exposing the pins to damage. Cheap design from a company that knows how!
I am not at all impressed with HTC's build quality, when my USB port broke I also had the dreaded white spot and a failing keyboard. When the time comes to replace my Mogul, I 'm going to be looking to avoid HTC and WM! I've had several Windows Mobile and WinCE PDA's and phones over the past 6-7 years and they still can't figure out how to keep the thing from turning on by itself periodically. Hopefully, my new replacement Mogul will last long enough for that phone to be developed. I'll even consider joining the cult of Jobs!
You mention the dreaded white spot. How common is this? VZW just sent me a refurb for mine and it also has the same white spot I complained about on the one going back to them. I have seen other threads on Howards mentioning it but I am course how bad the issue truly is. My coworker has a 6800 with no white spot and two other people have Moguls with no white spot. I must have the luck for getting this.
I just picked up an Atrix lapdock and am trying to get it working with my Razr. When I plug it in, it loads the webtop and shows the screen, but the trackpad and keyboard are unresponsive. After about 5 seconds, the screen will just show the motorola logo and the screen on my phone becomes active again. It seems like the usb portion of the lapdock is not registering because the phone shows nothing if I plug in and unplug the usb from the lapdock (I have the hdmi and usb connectors pulled out of the lapdock for testing purposes). I tried a USB mouse plugged into the lapdock with no response either, though the usb ports on the lapdock are powered up and working as the mouse lights up.
Has anybody had this problem and have any idea how to fix it? Or did I just get a defective lapdock? I have whatever the latest update from vzw is on the phone, not rooted.
did you unscrew and flip the connectors?
I have the connectors completely free from the housing to make sure they're fully seated.
I have only had problems when the connectors are not well seated (before shaving away excess plastic from the housing). So it sounds like you might have a faulty unit.
Also, be sure the phone screen is on and unlocked when you connect it. Sometimes that makes a difference.

sounds like a hardware issue to me also
Well, looks like I'll be out $80 if it's defective, that sucks. I'll play with the connectors a little more, if anybody has a broken lapdock maybe I could mix and match some parts to get it to work...Or if anyone wants one for parts, let me know.
I am in the same boat with an Atrix dock and a Bionic.
Does anyone know if it's possible to just buy the piece that houses the connectors, or even just the USB cable? I'm pretty sure the USB is the issue.
I ordered this dock and it comes with the cables, so you should be able to get them somewhere.

Bionic lapdock issues, even when i have the adapters connected
Hi, just like bobzdar said, i still have the 5 second screen problem and the phone goes into screen saver mode with M logo. Any suggestions?
Very possible it's the phone, when I got my lapdock I found out the HDMI port didn't function right. If you are near a store just do what I did and take the phone and lapdock there and test both with the display models, to see if it's the lapdock or the phone

It's USB problem
I have the same Issue here ... just got my lapdock few days ago ,,, when I connect it to my atrix it only detect the hdmi... I tried to connect my wife's Razr ... and got the same result you've got
Amazingly there are alot of people encounter the same issue ( I thought MOTO devices are the most reliable in the market but THIS change my mind)
Unfortunately I'm not in US (currently in Kuwait) so I would be difficult to find the spare part ... If you find a spare Part please tell me
OTA ICS with webtop 3.0 solved the issue for me. YMMV.
Under display in options make sure u enable hdmi

What are some options to hook the phone to a TV.? HDMI RCA ...???
Hdmi mhl adapter. Make sure it's one with a power source made for note 2 or sgs3.
I have the official Samsung Smart Dock and a HDMI cable. I just put the phone on the dock and connect the HDMI from the dock to the TV and get instant display

Well, I got it for 75 dollars but it was originally 100. I'd say if you use the phone for multi-media purposes (watch movies on standard TV), then get it. But I wouldn't just buy if you want to dock/charge it and nothing else. Personally, I use my dock to make my Note 2 a giant PC. I connect my mouse and keyboard to the USB slots on the dock and connect the dock to the TV so I can browse the internet and what not on a bigger screen. That to me is worth the money. You should get it! It does a lot!

Ah yes. That is exactly what i'd be doing is a pc like setup. I had a similar setup back in the early bionic days but that phone just didn't have the hardware to double as a desktop. Thinking the n2 will bring what it was missing. Appreciate the feedback!

You don't need a setting, you just plug it in/hook it up and after selecting the correct input on the TV it works automatically.
I have a little problem. I wonder if I can get some help. When my phone is connected to the dock the edges Getty cut off from ask sides. I have changed the ratio of my tv but nothing happens. Any work around to bet the screen to fit perfectly?

I have a setting on my TV that changes the mode to PC or TV, check and see if your TV has that. It fixes my issues with the screen being cut off.

Get the Smart Dock... I got it for half off from Samsung. Worth it for that.
If you want to try to get it for $50, let me know. I'm not promising anything, but I think you should be able to get it as well.

I have been using the MHL adapter that was purchased directly from Samsung for the Note 2. Oddly enough, since day 1 of me owning it, I have had the edges of the screen cut off from the display. I've checked every setting on my tv and nothing has fixed it.
Now here's the interesting part, every other phone I have tried to troubleshoot this issue with, (two sgs3's, an sgs4, I haven't found another note 2 to try it with) has worked perfectly, without changing any TV settings, and without the edges being cut off. So with that being said, I've been trying to figure out why my Note 2 is the only one that has this problem, to no avail.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!

I wouldn't know why only the note ii is doing that. With my note ii on different monitors or tvs (either) there is definitely variation in display. Some tvs you can't change the scan settings and will be stuck with the picture as is ( as far as I know-probably worth researching). Some you can change the setting and your all good or some monitors will display the whole image properly. Thats just my experience. I too would be Iinclined to have a more technical explination... i just havent sought one yet.
i have pc settings but since i dont have anything connected there i cant change them. i have tried it in 3 different tvs and played with the settings but nothing seems to work. i got to admit. its no big deal but in really bothers me for some reason. especially when it comes to the multi window tab...

After replacing my cracked display on my DNA, I'm now getting this error.
I know it's hardware related but I don't know exactly where to look to find either a loose connection or which part to replace.
Has anyone successfully corrected this hardware issue or had this problem after a screen replacement?

I had taken mobo out to replace battery and afterwards camera was giving me same error message. I think it was the long black wire or one of the whiteboards on that side. I didn't have to take the motherboard out again just unscrewed one black tapelike connector, flipped the whiteboards (1 big 1 small), disconnected the long black wire and reseatted them all and it works now! I'm not sure which one did it but they were all on the volume rocker side of the phone.

That looks like a hardware issue. It could be a loose ribbon cable to the display. That would require a teardown to check and fix. If your tablet is still under warranty that would be the place to start.

I was able to open the backside and i reseated the LCD cable that runs to the board connector near the camera, but it still does the same thing.
Could it be possible that the opposite end of the ribbon cable is disconnected? i've never seen an android tablet that has 2 connectors for the display
