Hello everyone, I got a new Lemax 2 today and it appears to present a really strange problem: if I plug the charger while the phone is on the battery won't charge, even if I switch it off.
Conversely if I plug it when off, everything seems to work fine, even if I switch it on while charging.
I read many charging issues come from the cable, could this be the case as well?
Cheers.
My cable doesn't work and I know a lot of leeco cable too
Charging cable with LeTV Le Max2 rubbish
Throw away the cable that comes with your LeTV as it's rubbish, it only worked twice for me before dying, luckily I ordered two new cables at the same time as I ordered my phone and they came only day after my phone but not from LeTV, LeTv did say they would refund the cost of the cable or send a new one which I didn't bother with as I had 2 already that worked great.
That is the only fault I could find with the phone and am happier with this phone than when I got my OnePlus years ago
Eventually I bought a new cable and now everything works smoothly
Mine too. Completely out of the box
2 fully charges and then shows that it's charging but no bar moving stays on 22%.
Hope buying a new cable will solve the issue.

Hi,
I am having trouble with my StarTrek. It is pretty much unused, bought it straight when it came out but only used it for 1-2 months because I then got a phone from work. I reciently tried to start using it again just because I was a bit bored. But the phone refused to start, I originally thought it was the battery so I ordered a new one and got it. Phone started up straight away when I put it in as it came precharged at 40%. But the phone refuses to charge when I plug the USB cable in. I get no LED light or indicator in WM5 that it is charging.
So I checked the USB cable with a multi meter and there is defiently 5v being supplied. I opened up the phone and measured the board when the charged was plugged in, I found both 5v points and ~3.7-4v points on the board. The positive point of the 4 connectors which connects to the battery outputs 1v when the battery is plugged in (~0.3v when no battery is plugged in) so it would appear that the battery is charging right? Or should I be seeing 3.7v here?
charging issue
these phones are notorious for the micro usb connector to come loose from the main board, once it does there is nothing you can do with it.
My advice is if you plan on keeping the phone by a dual charger off of eBay for about 20 bucks, it has a built in battery charger, then you can simply swap out your batteries as you should now have 2 good batteries cause my guess is that your original battery is still good.
other possibility is to buy a trashed 3125 (bad lcd, etc) off of eBay and hope that you get one with a good charging port and board, then swap out the board, fairly easy swap.
I ended up buying one of the £70 new pink qtek 8500 from expansys and then I took off the black cover from my old one and swapped with the pink one. I now have a phone to play with wm6.1
First post so all help welcomed. I have an old XDA Orbit and decided to buy a second hand TG01 as an upgrade. The phone arrived and worked great, it took a bit of reading on this forum to get Tomtom working but the advice was great. I flashed a couple of roms and was really happy with the phone.
My old XDA used mini USB to charge and the TG01 uses micro USB so I thought I would convert my car charger by buying an adapter off Ebay which cleatly stated it was for the TG01 and could be used to convert car chargers. It arrived this morning I plugged my old charger into it and then plugged it into the TG01 and nothing happened (or so I thought), but I did notice my charger light had gone out. I assumed the charger was faulty and the phone still worked perfectly so thought no more of it.
When I got home the phone was down to 60% charge (yes I know they eat the battery) so I plugged in my official Toshiba charger and nothing happened again, no charging light came on. I then plugged it into my computer thinking maybe it was a bad day for chargers and again nothing. At this point I was getting a bit worried so I smelled the phone and it smells of burnt electrical smells. I opened the phone up to see if anything was loose (Nintendo DS screwdrivers work on the TG01) and it looked fine but does smell a bit.
Sorry for the long winded post but does anyone have any experience of burning out the charging circuit. The phone still works fine apart from not charging. I have still got about 60% charge but it will not last long. I have contacted the seller of the adapter but am not holding out much hope on that front. It may be a case of looking for a phone that has a broken screen or selling the bits for spares.
Cheers
Tommy
Toshiba have 2 years warranty with the TG01, so if you have a reciept or prove of purchase then you are covered.
I bought the TG01 second hand so am not the original owner. I have however contacted Toshiba UK to ask about spares, they said the same as you that there is a two year warranty. When I explained about not being the original owner they said they could sort me out a proof of purchase. I am waiting for them to get back to me but to be honest it all sounds a bit dodgy
I have read up in the forums, haven't found my issue. I am pretty sure my phone may have shorted on a cheap car charger. I say this because two days previous, my phone showed a caution sign and that I should use the proper charger.
I unplugged phone, went into work, worked on the car charger fine, but then when I took it off I guess it decided to die. Also, I got an ATT go phone, ZTE. Just for the time being. When I plugged it into the car charger it immediately flickered then restarted. Car charger is thrown away.
My HTC one can be "heard" when plugged into computer, but nothing seen. It also has NFC working/has power, touched to my nexus 7 gives the sound.
Is there anything I can do to fix it? Right now I'm waiting for the phone to die completely (no computer noise or NFC) and then maybe? On the proper charger, no red light is shown on led. Do I have the faulty USB port? I will be getting the M9 when it is available, just be nice to have my trusty M7 back. Thanks for any help.
My charger wire doesn't register the first time and you have to unplug and re-plug it back in for it to say fast charging, so enough of that and I tried two other cables. One is a Sony charger cable, and the other is a very old htc wire from who knows, i believe the mytouch 4g slide? LOL which is 2011 I think, they both registered fast charging the first time. And the wire doesn't get hot at all at the microusb end to plug into the phone like the included samsung one, just the adaptive charging block. Anyone else experience this?
Yep I did as well just replace the wire, I don't think the provided wire can handle the current that is needed to charge the bigger batteries in note 5/s6 edge plus unlike the s6 and s6 edge, I got one from amazon and now fast charging is registered everything I plug up
Now my original cables and others i used to use all shows up with slow charging now. Like 5 hours from low battery

Hm that's strange, are you using the adaptive charging bloc then tried using other cables? worked for me, 1hour and 27 minutes till full for me now
Started having this issue about a week ago... Haven't tried a different USB yet... I'm in school currently, so I guess I'll try a different USB when I get back home today.

My husbands phone was doing that, then it started to bug out like we were taking the plug in and out over and over again when it wasn't even plugged in. Now it doesn't charge with any wire. It also keeps opening VR gear and popping up a "not charging" notification. Here's the kicker, this is his second edge + with the same issues. We got it at Best Buy. Verizon is now sending us a refurbished phone.
We spend 600 bucks on the new phone and 8 weeks later have to get a refurb. I think they effed up with the USB connection or fast charging stuff. ?

Samsung's own wire just sucks, their block is good, but you just gotta use a third party wire, at least in my case, the original samsung one gets way too hot, while third party ones are not even warm to the touch at the connector end plugged into the phone
It keeps making the vr gear app go bonkers. Now my phone is doing it. This pops up every 2 seconds or a black screen with a tiny X on the bottom. Have to keep a cord plugged in just to type this reply or the phone goes bizerk. 3 of them now that we've gone thru and using the new chargers from each. Now we both will have refurbs. I loved samsung for years but this is crazy.
I had the exact issue. charging would take 6 hours + oculous would not work, just go black when connected.
I went to the samsung repair center in Los Angeles and they said the issue required a motherboard replacement to be resolved. They told me to RMA it or go to Verizon to get a replacement under warranty. I went to verizon for my replacement.
Hello!
I recently bought a S6 Edge for my little brother (1 week ago).
As he returned from school in the weekend (Boardschool) I surprised him with a fully charges S6 Edge (Left it charging for a day).
As monday he went back to school (They can only use the phones in their rooms) he left it charging monday night)
The phone was not charged teusday morning. (using the original charger and OTG cable).
He tried with his laptop, another power plug and nothing worked.
This weekend now I tried with a Qi charger and it started charing.
After a full night Qi charing his phone is at 100%
The phone doesnt get detected by my computer either. Seems like the microUSB port is broken, but he barely had the phone... And you know how you handle a brand new expensive phone, right?
I checked for dust, nothing changed.
Im not in the mood to send the phone back right now, so I wonder if anyone encountered this problem and maybe fixed it.
Thanks,
PV-
same thing just happened to me..did you find a fix by any chance?
same as you body, but i dident want to go in repair shop because i dont want to open my phone so i decided to buy a wireless charger and is working good until now with a little problem that is a slow way to charge a phone In a mean time if you dont have a wireless charger try to turn off your phone and plugged in charger repeat this until it works because my S6 sometimes it works sometimes not (alternative buy a battery case)... hope i was helpful for you, have great day.
