I haven't seen any similar threads and I'm sorry if there is already an existing one.
My X10 USB port has suddenly gone wonky. At first the phone had no problems charging, but when trying to connect to the computer, the cable had to be held in a certain position or it would not connect. This later began to affect charging as the usb cable had to be held in a certain position to charge. Now even after wiggling around the USB cable and reinserting the battery, the phone will not charge.
Given that the USB port used to work while being held in a certain position, it seems that this is a hardware issue. After finding nothing here, I searched the interwebs and found that poorly soldered USB ports are actually a fairly common problem on the X10.
I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem or has any insights?

this happened to me too, are you using the usb that came with your phone? because when mine broke i bought a new cable and everything worked fine so try the cable on a different phone and see if it charges
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
I have tried 3 different USB cables, including the one that is included with the phone. Thanks for your input.
My last x10 went down the same way. I had to buy an external battery charger which was a royal pain. SE refused all knowledge of this defect.

whoa not cool how long have u had your device?? will se fix it?
Sent from my X10a using XDA App
The problem is most likely due the actual design of the phone, where the USB connector is not properly strain-relief. This causes the solder joints to break, and ripping off the solder pads after a while. You used to be able to charge your phone because the pads very only "lifted" but after a while they become completely broken. I'm currently still in the process of trying to figure out whether it would be possible to repair those connections by finding an alternate location to solder the connector pins.
I've had my x10 since April when it launched. Other than this it has been rock solid, but this is really disappointing considering how tank my old W810i was.
I also think that there is either a problem with the design or the manufacture of the phone because it's somewhat common, as it does appear that the soldering of the USB port is not very good.
Looking around the internet, it doesn't seem like SE acknowledges this problem, but luckily it's still under warranty with Rogers for a replacement. I still want to get this issue out on this forum though, because I think it should be something that people are aware of.
I had the same problem a while ago. Called Orange France and they replaced my phone without any comments. If your phone is still under warranty you should go to your provider.
Hey guys. I need help returning my x10 back to stock without a usb cable. I have an AT&T x10a, but unfortunately the other day one of the pins in my usb module (ground, I believe-pin 1) snapped off. I can't charge or connect my phone at all.
Is there any way of flashing the phone back to stock AT&T firmware using like a terminal emulator so I can send it back to AT&T? Btw - the phone is running Nordic 2.1 and it's rooted. Thanks for anyone who can help.
Sent from my X10a
I was looking through the forums for a method like this too but couldn't find one so far. Perhaps you could figure out what makes it look like it's on stock firmware:
i.e. change the boot screen, change the model to x10a, unroot and make it look as much as possible like stock.
Look at the "broken usb connector" thread

My Samsung Galaxy S2 has this problem.
A: I doesn't register the charge in the socket unless I wiggle it around or put pressure on a certain area. It's sensitive and it takes me a while to make it 'stick'.
b: It only charges to about 30% and then it stops charging.
I have tried numerous chargers and usb cables and always the same issue. I have replaced the battery and its the same problem.
Any help? I bought this damn thing on ebay a few weeks ago so I don't really know its history. The seller refuses to refund and I've opened a case.
Anyway that will all take a long time.
Any idea what the problem is and how to fix it?

Try Charging the battery externally using a battery charger, and not from inside the phone....I suppose it should get charged 100%...
If not then its battery problem...
If it does get charged then there might be a problem in the port or connection to the battery via inside the phone...get it checked at a samsung customer care...If you have warranty you might get it fixed for free...
I don't think there should be any problem with your kernel etc..
Press Thanx If I helped..
Try cleaning the micro USB port with a toothbrush or something similar
This type of issue is not weird and has been discussed on forum plenty of times.
Clean the battery contacts on battery and pins on device with alcohol (cleaning alcohol). If that doesnt work and you have changed charger/battery then your hardware is faulty so nobody here can help.

Good luck..
Just replaced the charging port on my ATT SGII i777. Still not charging. Any ideas on what to try next?
The charge port I bought was for a i9100 but I was under the impression that they were interchangeable:
I've tried several chargers so I'm pretty sure it is not the charger,

Cable? Have you tried a different charging cable?I know it sounds ridiculous but I remember someone posting that fixed their issue.

Yes. Charger and cables. tried like 4 different one including two samsung ones.. I also plugged it into the computer and it is not detected at all.
After my original post, I noticed that my cellular service wasn't working either. Cleaned up the old port with a good dose of rubbing alcohol and a soft toothbrush and put it back in. Charger still not working but the cell service is back.
The markings on both boards say GT-i9100 and rev2.2 but the original says R.B82 and the replacement says says R.B84. I doubt that means anything.
Any other ideas or testing to do? Luckily I ordered an external charger and extra battery so I am not dead in the water.
Just a quick update - I bought several other charging ports before I finally found one that works. The one that worked was on ebay from muchbuy-outlet. I emailed them prior to purchasing. They said it would work and it did. Here is the link will expire at some point...

Long story short, I took the battery out of my i777 and used my t989 as a temporary charger just to get some juice in there (to about 10 %) and switched it back to the i777 and the i777 charged it no problem after that. I think there could be an issue with the i777 firmware which doesnt charge a battery that has gone to complete dead.

It is because the usb port that we have on our phone is not that great. Before I got my port fixed by Samsung, it would not be able to charge an empty battery, but now it is fine. Although sometime when the battery get too hot, it just through the phone in a loop of charging just enough to boot then shut down again.
You need I9100 gt model Rev 2.3 to replace sgh i777 At&t usb flex cable.
I just changed mine. Mine was rev 2.3. I got mine ebay at the "Cellphone-Repair-Shop" Search for "usb flex cable i9100 gt" model. It has to be the Gt model and it has to be The rev 2.3. So ask your seller before you buy. I believe the cellphone repair shop only sells 2.3.
I did put the Non-GT model in first because I read several reviews that it would work if I bought it from a specific store. This turned out to be a misplacement of many reviews. I am returning that one tomorrow. The wrong one charged for a day. Then nothing... and it caused all kinds of reception problems. Pretty much made phone useless.
Now with the Gt model in, when I connect to computer (wouldn't work before) it reads in explorer that this is a i9100 gt model phone. I do believe it is the new usb port that causes this to be read as a Gt i9100 and not the warning screen caused by rooting.
I wonder if this will cause any problems when flashing roms or anything else like otg usb mounting.

Bud,
When I plug in my charger the charging circuit goes on and off. I have a tone that dings once (or makes a "BEDUP' sound) indicating the charger is charging and it sounds like a bell indicating that the charger circuit connects and disconnect even before the BEDUP sound can fully complete! LOL Well instead of just one 'bedup' sound it bedups then bedups again! and again etc. The actual indicator on the battery icon goes on then off in sync to the bedups. I suspect its the dock connector charging port but am not positive. I have two I777's; the second one charges fine with the same usb cable so the cable is ruled out. I also had trouble using ODIN and getting my drivers to load in windows "Intermittently", but only on the SUSPECT I777.
Sometimes I can get it to charge by holding the USB cable either pressed upward or downward but it I change pressure at all it will go out.
Were the actual metal strips on your dock connector worn out? That is what I am thinking my issue is. If so It will require another charging port.
After reading your post an reevaluating my issues I am even more sure it is the charging port, but would appreciate any input you may have about your experience!
Thanks for your input!

Hey, thanks for the info.
My i777 device has the same issue. But the item in the above link does not ship to my country.
So I checked on ebay for another S2 REV 2.3 usb flex cable and found this.
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140959296482
But in the cable you have bought it says "R.CB4 28 GT-I9100 REV2.4" and on my selected cable it says "R.CA4 GT-I9100 REV2.4"
Is that a big difference or should I not worry about it?
Thanks!

Sorry I missed this but anyone having this issue should first try cleaning the port with a small brush (soft toothbrush or I used these: http://www.dentek.com/product/144/easy-brush-cleaners/) dipped in isopropyl alcohol. That may help (or not). If that doesn't solve the problem, you are going to need to swap out the charging port. -- Bud

Help! My Samsung Galaxy S4 won't charge or connect to a computer. I've tried different chargers, cables, plug in locations, car, 110, computer. There is no dirt. Connection is clean. I have a spare battery and both of them will charge on the battery charger. I have tried backed up roms. I have done a factory reset.
All of this and nothing helped. Am willing to try anything. Verizon is going to send me a refurb.

Is there any indication of a connection being made? If not, you should just wait for the refurb. If you have rooted, I really doubt Verizon will honor the warranty on the broken phone. I wish you the best.

sounds like contacts are on the phone side are damaged or the micro usb port is damaged.
Have you plugged into to a pc just to see if it can "see" the device and connect?
You stated it cannot connect to a pc, so i would suspect you have a bad micro usb port.
if you can connect, its not the port, and try taking an eraser and gently swabbing the contacts on the phone side.
also, make sure when you insert the battery there is an actual contact established. sometimes when pulling/pushing the battery in and out, those contacts sink further into the device and finally when you insert a batter the contact is very poor. you may need a tool or tweezer to just VERY, VERY GENTLY raise the contacts if they sunk in to far......but be careful not to pull too hard/much they can snap and you will probably void any warranty......

I am having the exact same problem. I have replaced the microUSB charging port on the phone and it still doesnt charge with the new port. I'm not sure what is going on. NEED HELP BIG TIME!!!
I'm having the same problem as well. It has been like that for bout a month or so now. I googled it and it seems to be a problem with the s3's and s4's. I'm not so worried about it as I have a spare battery charger and I have the wireless charging receiver on my s4 and it charges my phone just fine.
I had this exact problem I believe...tried several different chargers...everthing. Try turning the phone off and see if it takes a charge. When mine was off it would show a gray battery and vibrate every 5-10 seconds. I figured it was an issue with the charging/usb port but all of the sudden my phone started charging normally and is visible by a computer. Lasted for about 4 days and have been in the clear for about 3 days now. No clue what went wrong or why, but try what I mentioned above by charging with phone off for a half hour or so and see if it has charged at all. If you need a new USB port, not all GS4's have the same port, so you must get a verizon specific one (ebay). usually run about $20..or $65 installed at a phone fixing center. I didnt want to lose MDK, so I was prepared to just charge externally, but ended up not having to...yet
It happened to me also. I had some intermittent luck with blowing out the port with air from my air compressor. But in the end it just stopped working and Verizon sent me a refurbished one.
I Also have this problem!

Have you tried powering down your phone and seeing if that gray battery comes up and you get the vibrations (while plugged into charger)? You may need a new port, but since your under warranty, you could get a replacement unless you want to charge externally
S4 problem after update to 4.3
Hy,
I have a similar problem with my S4 (i9505), won't indicate if it is charging or connect to a computer, but while the charger is conected to S4, the battery level is increasing. When the battery is fully charged S4 is SHUTING DOWN!!!! And it wont start by pressing ON/OFF button, it will only start after I press Vol Down+Power, after goes to Download Mode and press Vol Down .
Tryed in many ways to fix:
- restore-
- hard reset
- changed te battery and charger
-i\ve changed even the usb port (flex cable) and =no results...
All problem started after update to 4.3.... and it is not an isolated case too many people complains about this 'awesome smartphone' with 'awesome issues' .
So, if anyone have any ideea how to solve this issues....
{Sorry for my bad english}
Had the same problem...lasted for about a day, I had to take a dry q-tip and clean the charger and the port where the phone charges and was able to get it working again. If you are rooted and are having issues go to amazon or ebay and get a wireless charger and it should take care of your problems as well

For me it is annoying, because I do not know for sure if this is caused by updatind to 4.3 or is a harware problem.

Lucky you...I did more than that, but no result in my case. I found on ''community.verizonwireless'' many more similar cases where ''customers support'' tried to avoid giving the answers for a real solution.
Well, our luck didn't hold. My wife's S4 wouldn't charge again last night. I tried another Samsung charger and a different cable but it wouldn't work either. When we left the house she tried it on the car charger and it worked great. Trying various other chargers we found that a kindle charger wouldn't work, but other third party chargers would. Even her PC USB port seems to work and she doesn't have the drivers loaded. For now she replaced the Samsung charger and cable that came with her phone for one that came as part of an accessory pack and it's happy again.
I have no idea what's going on with the thing. I asked one of the guys at the Samsung booth in Bestbuy and all he had to offer was reflashing the ROM or un-rooting it and doing a warranty exchange...

Can you check, please, if your new data cable has 4 or 5 pins(look to the side that connects to your phone )?
My first s4 done this. So I ended up with a replacement mdk phone after I figured out if you bend the lil piece in the charging port of your phone (not too much BTW) the charger will slide into the port as it's meant to.
Sorry I can't remember the tech term for that lil pin inside the charging port.

I think the S4 is compatible with QI compliant wireless chargers. Amazon has some that are only $20... might be worth the purchase.... hell if I didn't have this tank of a case on I would buy it.

Hi
Just received my P9000 and updated to the new OTA 20160419 right away.
My problem is that I can only charge the phone once, then I have to do a power off to be able to recharge it.
I have tried with both standard USB charger, a "real" USB-C charger and QI. The results are the same.
When the phone is power-off the charging works as expected, so the hardware seems OK.
Anyone else seen anything like this or am I just the lucky owner of a defect phone?
Regards
Jakob
Sounds like a defective unit to me. Perhaps try first with another USB-C cable (see other thread on the dodgy cable Elephone ship the phone with) before sending phone back.
I would advice the same. Seems like a faulty device. First try using a different charging cable, I am pretty convinced that should help.
If not, its a hardware related problem I guess
I have tried with both other cables and with 2 different QI chargers. Same result. I have send a question to the reseller.
I updated my phone ....(elephone p9000lite ) few days ago and that was the point charging problem wosen .....24hours of charging only to give 35 %...plz help
Same problem phone had updates now phone won't charge unless turned right off can any one help
