Thought the charger socket was damaged until I noticed it's 'upside down' compared to every other device I've ever had.
It's the same with s4, n4 and all other Androids I've used.

It's the same orientation as my moto defy, the HTC One is the "other way up" though.

The Moto G's socket is the right way up, your previous devices were wrong.

No, checking a list of all the devices I've had over the last 10 years it's definitely the other way round and it seems to be a modern trend.
Please provide a photo of your phone's USB.

Erm, sounds like it's really dead I'm afraid
Have you attacked the usb slot with a small brush?
Tried a different cable?

+1 for cleaning the microusb port of your device
If only charging died, i would suspect your battery. But as long as nothing is working, it should be mentioned port.
Well than the USB port broke.... Only thing to do is to find a place to fix you're device. Or buy galaxy s3 - One x

tried different cables,, no luck,, i think i have to get it repaired,, can anyone tell me for how much money ,, i can get it repaired??
EDIT: is it even possible to get it repaired??
You could try one of these:

Pretty cheap and looks easy to fit from the disassembly vids I have seen.

Thanks man! Is it possible that the my phone motherboard is ok? I have heard in these cases ,, u have to replace the whole motherboard,?? Or just the flex cable will work?
Sent from my HTC Desire S using xda app-developers app
No idea, but for that price its worth a go!
Mine charges but won't connect via adb, so I might try swapping mine one day
Also worth bearing in mind HTC's come with a 2 year warranty if you are still stock.

It might be your phone's microUSB socket.
Congratulations! :highfive:
Since the beginning of my stay here on the Desire S forum, I believe you are the first one to have this problem.. (correct me if I'm wrong)..
Have a look at the teardown video on YouTube and you will see the little connector that joins the USB port on to the main board. Make sure it is fully connected and if so then disconnect and reconnect. There is no electronics in there, so not much to go wrong unless you actually damage the connector.
i think your usb socket in your DS is damage.
Its a really bad feeling,,, u know

I know not all the galaxy s3's have these extra connection pins next to the sim slot. Does anyone know what they are for? They look similar to the connection pins for the wireless charging on the left.

(Look at the far left board. You can see the pins next to the sim slot with a marker pointing up. On the far right you can see an extra notch cut out for those pins. Sorry this is the best picture I could find and I don't have a camera on me.)
Thought it might have something to do with the OEM flip cover, but there are no conductive elements on the inside of the cover.
Intriguing thing. Do other non-Verizon US variants have this?

No, these contacts are for the Verizon wireless charging back cover.

So there are 2 places to use wireless charging? I am currently using the wireless charging on the other pins. You are 100% sure of this?
The note 2 has the 2 pin placements as well. One to the right of the sim and one to the right of the battery shown here:

Yea, there's one set of pins for wireless charging that are for the official Samsung wireless back cover, and the other set is for Verizon only.
Afaik Samsung's cover is not available yet, but Verizon's had been available for some time.

That's odd that Samsung would build the phone with 2 sets of charging ports. So verizon didn't think that samsung's ports were good enough for their purposes?

When I'm charging my tablet the screen is a bit harder to use, I have to press harder and when I'm scrolling it stops and selects whatever I my finger was over, is this normal? Or is my tablet faulty?

It might be a grounding issue. Try flipping the charger block upside down and plug it in. I heard of that fixing it before. I don't have that issue though. If it still keeps occurring, you can get them to send you a new charger or exchange device if still under warranty.
This is normal for touch screen devices, in my experience. While charging, the touch screen is a little bit more jumpy or less sensitive.
It may be a side effect of some aspect of your power supply or charger. Whether it is a little bit of line noise that affects the capacitance measurements in the phone, or something else, I don't know. The effect may be stronger at certain times, or for certain people. For me it happens a lot more on my Galaxy S2 than my Galaxy Note 10.1, and a lot more at home than at work.
I get it with my phone, I've herd that its a problem with the circuity but I was just wanting to know if all of them do it or if its just mine in which case I'll take it back

Hello,
I just bought my Moto G today, When i press the Power off button, it vibrates and screen goes to black very fast. In my previous phone, it took sometime to turn off. Is it an issue or working fine.
Thanks.
Absolutely the Droid 3 was like one of fastest shut downs I ever had. So I can imagine the g can do it better

Anyone know if this is possible or do we need to wait for a nexus rom?
We know the moto x is capable of listening with the screen off using moto voice but I would rather use Google now directly like the nexus phones.

Setup Moto app on your phone it overlays Google Now and listens and responds when screen is off.

I understand the moto app transfers requests to Google now. Would it not be faster if we bypassed moto voice and just directly use Google now like the nexus?
Sent from my XT1575 using Tapatalk
You'll only be trading off a bit of speed for significant battery life. The Moto app uses the dedicated low-power CPU core to listen for your catchphrase. Google now doesn't.
To be honest, with the tweaks and bug fixes over the years, transferring to Google Now from Moto Assist has gotten much faster. I don't think the trade would be worth it.

I'm wondering if Google now does utilize the low power CPU core. It would be nice if they at least gave us the option.

weird. maybe i am wrong and it is phone specific. my N6 works when screen is off and phone is not plugged in so maybe it is something in the phone itself.

Yeah the Nexus 6 is the only phone i know that works.. I thought maybe with this yr Moto that it would work but apparently it doesnt. I prefer Google now over Moto software cause of faster response.
