Hi all,
Just having an issue with my tablet at the moment.
Battery is draining whilst the charger is plugged In.
The battery icon does indicate it's receiving power, though.
Any help or advice would be appreciated guys.
Thanks,
Chris.
Try to clean the connection between usb cable and charger socket check if there is rust or dirt or try to press the usb cable head maybe it is loose

Hi
My PDA2K cradle will charge my PDA2K fine via USB without the power adapter being connected.
What I need to know is if it will also charge the spare battery?
Does anyone know?
Does anyone HAVE a spare battery, they seem to be like hens teeth.

If it's the same as the XDA II dock then no, it won't charge the spare without the mains supply.
You need external power for spare battery.
I agree with Cruisin-thru.
It definitely does not charge the second battery when using the USB connection. I've already found this out the hard way....

Test for yourself. Cradle plugged into the mains and USB with ONLY the spare battery inserted - light on the front right hand side glows (Orange M200 cradle). Unplug the mains light goes out.
Voila!
Hi! I have a prob, for me it's a major prob, since it's the first time I'm using it and don't know how to solve it. I have probs with the cradle, I can't charge it even I've plugged in the power cable (with the AC wire/adapter) to the cradle and also the USB wire connected to my desktop. I'm using Linux for my desktop. The PDA doesn't show the charging signal (amber/green light) ever, and this is a new prob, it doesn't happen yet. When I switch off the main plug, means everything that connected to, the cradle and my desktop, my PDA automatically switched on when the USB wire connected, but not switched on when it's disconnected, the power cable still remains the same, never disconnect it. Hopefully, to those who really expert about it, please help me as soon as you can.
Thanks
sounds like the battery is dead
if it works even when connected to ac but just don't charge
But before this, I still can charge it normally. How can I know whether the battery is dead or something else? Does the battery only have problem, or related to the cradle too? If I can't buy the same cradle as I've got, can I still use other cradle like for O2 XDAII, O2 XDA Atom etc?
Thanks for the replies
if it gets power so it's running when in the cradle then the cradle is fine
OK. When recently you've said that the battery is dead, how does it happen? And now, I still put my PDA on the cradle, USB and Power Supply cable still connected, but nothing happen, still not charging. So, what is the way to solve this that you might want to suggest? Rather than modify the cradle itself, because I'm not so good in electronic
batteries got a sudden time you can charge them and they die it's the same for all batteries
but if when you put your device in the cradle or connect it to the charging connector for the ac psu and nothing happens at all the device don't power on or anything then
it could be the connector in the phone which is damaged
buy a new battery they are cheap ~$8 on ebay.
i cant really understand you but I have experiance with the older HTCs horrible battery management.
plugged in+noncharging+no startup tends to imply either a bad cable or bad battery.
could be a bad phone as well, but it'd show a light of some sort i believe.
grab a new battery off ebay.
Hi I want to ask for help.

Just use a miniUSB cable and plug it into your computer. Any USB wall charger should work. I've used iPhone USB chragers with a miniUSB cable, Nikon camera chargers, as well as a Motorola one. You just need to plug it into any USB port either on a wall or on your computer. Leave the device off while it charges overnight.
Problem with charged
I use both ways but no result , phone indicates to charged but battery not charging.Charger is original and consists of two parts: the charger and mini usb cable .When i run it sometimes on the displays show this message : The charging current is not enough for device power consumption.Please shut down unused applications , or switch to AC adapter. And I do not use any applications. I tried to load phone in the off position , indicates that the charger is ON but the battery is not charging .Please help if someone has the same problem

Try it with a different miniUSB cable. If you don't have one handy, miniUSB cables go for pennies on Amazon or eBay. You can find them in retail stores for about 10 dollars or so as well. If the cable isn't the problem, then it is either a problem with the charge port on the device, or the battery. It's far cheaper to trouble shoot the cable, so let's just start with that.
Sound like the charger is insufficient power, even though it says 1A. Try charging from a computer USB port and see if it charges. HTC don't list TP2 as suitable for this charger.
I am also facing same problem. LED shows charging but phone does not charge. And when I insert charger "USB TO PC" page shows up, Like I have connected the phone to PC.
Please Help...
I just had an issue charging which turned out to be an easy fix.
The led would come on and the icon would show charging but it wasn't increasing the battery %. Then I would get a message about the power not being enough and to plug it into a charger. I tried several chargers and was getting the same thing happening. I blew a few puffs into the charging port which looked clean and it was still happening. I wiggled the cable/plug in the port and occassionally the charging light would go on and off. The charging led even started to go on and off with the phone just sitting still on my table. I feared that my charging port had gone bad so I ordered 2 spare batteries and battery charger from ebay for $10 (works well and battery life good).
While waiting for the ebay purchase to arrive I did some reading up and saw that pins could be bent etc. In my fustration I used a pair of tweezers to gently scrape the charging port pins/contacts (in a straight direction). Then I used an old toothbrush and firmly brushed out the usb port - a whole bunch of lint and stuff come out of the port even though it had previously looked clean.
I plugged in my charger and bingo! My charging issue was gone.

That was the biggest problem with MiniUSB was the width and height of those ports. It's a haven for stray dust and dirt. They need to be brushed out every so often, especially when you just drop it in you pocket.
hi buy and it schould work
buy a new charging cable

I was facing the same charging problem and was looking for a solution. And i found this forum and read it and did the same thing and my problem is fix.. I can charge my mobile now. Thanks a lot for the great help.

All of these dumb charges, ie bricks in the wall, use the unused USB pins to communicate how much power they can provide. There are some resistors they put on the D-/D+ to say this is a 700ma charger or whatever. Trouble is that there are limited standards on these resistors so it's more than possible that a phone will charge but not enter high current charging when attached to a new brick in the wall. The cables however are more universal.
The phone holds its battery well under regular use, however when I connect it to the charger, the phone takes long to charge. I have to turn off the phone and let it charge over night so that the battery charges from 30% to 80%. Again under regular usage, the phone does hold the battery well its just the charging that is ridiculously slow. I have wiped the phone and cleared the cache and still find it to charge slowly.
Is this a battery issue or a bad connection?
Are you using the oem charger?
Is it connected to the wall, or a pc?
Charging from a pc causes it to "trickle charge" which using a non oem charger will cause the data pins are active, you'll need to hack the cable and short the middle data pins to get it to fast charge like an oem charger.

Using the OEM charger, and connected to both wall and PC results in the same slow charge. When connected to my PC this morning, it kept making the sound as if connecting and disconnecting every second even though it remained plugged in.
Ah that sounds like a bad cable then.
Or, worse case scenario, a bad usb port on your phone.

definitely a ****ty USB cable
I had that happen to me. I found out it was a bad USB cable after swapping out the cable with another one. Try swapping both the cable and the charger to see what changes your charge time the most and you'll have your culprit.
I have exaclty same symptoms, tried different cables and chargers but no luck. Any clue?

can anyone help me fix my phone. my phoine is S3 using foxhound rom 2.5 i charge my phone. use it for messaging or playing a bit but my battery drains. i doesnt happen before. its only now that my battery drains while charging... im using my AC outlet charger.
Try another charger and lead first.
Try another USB cable. Samsung cables are known to be of bad quality. If the charger + USB cable doesn't work, then most probably your charging port is not functioning. I had the same problem with my phone, gave it to the service center and the phone started charging again.
You can even try blowing air in the port. Sometimes dust gathers in there and that prevents the phone from charging.
Hope I helped.
