Okay so my usb port has been a bit annoying the past week - where i had to vigorously wiggle the cable to get it to charge or to sync (and even when it did decide to connect to the computer, it would chop out eventually)
But now it's no longer charging or being recognized by my comp
It's strange because the headphone adapter was working fine, and so was the usb host, but it just wont charge anymore - I effectively now have a dead TG01
Currently, i'll get the orange light, telling me it's charging, but when i try to power on, nothing happens...
So i'm thinking a new USB port which is where I need some help: I'm not sure on what part to get
But maybe This is the one? Comparing the images with the ones found on the net of the TG01 (Yep - I still haven't got mine open yet)
But yeah, just a heads up on whether you think it would work would be epic, or whether you think i should just try a different battery/charger/throw it away (Although i'm almost certain it's the port, as it was working intermitently before - it's now gone altogether)
are u using only usb to charging or an wall charger?

Wall charger, but i tried USB, and still no luck
It just wont charge at all, regardless of the orange light when plugged in now that it's off (though i wouldn't get it when the phone did still have charge left and was therefore still switched on...)
BUMP: Any ideas you clever people? Just some guidance would be nice...
I'm still without my beloved TG01, I'm having to use a **** old Samsung G600
I do have some problems of my own with my USB cable. I believe the problems are due to the cable, though. The wall charger works fine. The USB cable that I use, has to stay somehow "forced"... imagine having the cell laying face up on a desk. The USB cable gets out and is forced by a small pen that stays right near the cellphone, to have a 30% slope upwards, so pushing a bit the cable onto the upper part of the USB port. I do know that you are telling us a different issue, however, maybe this way you could check whether it's just a broken connection and not a completely dead port.
No, this sounds like the exact issue i had...
It was like this with the Charger and USB - where i had to force it to be recognised or charged, and it would still cut out after a while - and wiggling it or knocking it wouldn't actually affect it, it would be of it's own accordance...
But it was strange because the headphone adapter worked fine...
Nothing happens at all now though
Are you try: Settings- Connections- USB to PC- unmark Enable advanced network functionality
I can't turn the phone on because it wont charge, so it's not that
Battery may be defective. Try with any 5V charger, connect directly to battery pin in 10 min
Hi
It vaguely remembers me of something I read on the forum about different micro usb (explaining my different cables do not connect just the same, some easy, some bit forced); I think there also was a drawing. (but I don't have time to search for the exact thread; it was not the "solving usb port mistery one))
Maybe your earphone adaptator don't have exactly the same as your charger? And if it is not battery trouble, find a charger with the "very right" micro usb plug?
Thank you both so much for your response:
I understand why you say it could be the battery problem with the charger - but it doesn't explain the intermittent connection with my computer when using the USB cable. Which is convincing myslef more and more that it's a port problem
One solution for now would be to buy one of these cheap external battery chargers from eBay, but it would mean i still wouldn't be able to use sync using the USB cable and i'm a bit conscious on whether the charger is safe and wont fry my battery
Which is why i'm leaning towards having a stab at reparing it myself
It'd solve the issue directly and it'd be a safer and more secure solution too... (the external charger would have to be ordered in from Hong Kong eBay)
I'm having what seem to be exactly the same problems. I have used 2 x usb based chargers on it - and neither work (whereas they had been working for the past 6 months). Got a mains charger last week - was working for a while - but as of right now, no longer works.
I'm not sure what else to do. I will try later to use the other adapter I have for connection to usb keyboard. The strange thing is - this will probably work but charging won't!
So....is it the micro usb port that's broken? (strange if it is but still works for data)
OR
could it be the battery?
Hello guys, i am hoping that you can help me because i don't know where else to turn. I purchased a Verizon note pro 12.2. I was using it and on for about two weeks until i got my surface 3. Two days ago i went to use it and it wouldnt turn on. I assumed it was the battery so i put it on the original charger for about an hour and attempted to turn it on. It booted to the Verizon logo then flickered off. I put it back on the charger overnight thinking that would fix the problem. When i attempted to turn it back on it loaded to the Samsung splash screen and then turned off again. When i plugged in the charger once again the grey battery icon came up saying the battery was 100%. Even with the battery saying it was 100% it still wont turn past the splash screen. This only happens when it connect to the charger. it doesn't do anything at all if it is not plugged in. I have taken the battery out and reconnected it... still nothing. Looking at other post i assumed it was a software issue so i tried to sideload a stock version (Cant use odin because the tablet cant even boot into odin mode) of P905VVRUANK1 which is what the tablet was running. I got the error footer is wrong security authentication failure. I dont know what to do. Please help!!
correction i did not sideload (wrong terminology) i tried to flash through recovery mode.

Probably you have a loose or cracked battery connector. Try this, power on while pressing hard on the back near the center ( location of battery connector ). If it can boot this way, you need to re solder the battery connector.

I have tried this but still nothing. I also switched out the battery with another note pro and that tablet powered on with no power. when i tried to use that battery in mine i still got the same result.

I have seen this problem in many Tab Pro or Note Pro: it cannot turn on even with full battery. When battery connector's pins are open or cracked, your tablet won't be able to turn on. There are too many unknowns such as USB charging port, battery connector, or battery. You need this tool to find out where is the problem:
http://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_fro....TRS1&_nkw=usb+voltage+current+meter&_sacat=0
When charging, current should be 1.7 Amps.
It sounds silly but I see many users cannot figure out the problem which simply comes from bad USB cable or charger or USB charging port. This tool will eliminate guessing.
Since checking battery connector requires experiences to know the solder joints are good or bad. My recommendation for your problem: Re solder the battery connector if everything else: USB cable, charger, USB port, battery are in good working condition.
Use another battery you won't see the difference if battery connector on main board is cracked or loose.
Cracked battery connector is very common in this tablet but most average users won't see it or don't understand why it's the source of problem.

I do not believe that is the issue. the charger i used after the fact was a samsungng 5.3v charger thats belongs to the other note pro. im assuming if it was a issue with the amp that the other note pro would have the same issue... could it have something to do with the bootloader maybe.... or maybe theres a file i could flash that im just not aware of...

Beut was right all along...
So a problem reared its ugly head a few days ago...
I tried to connect my phone to my PC to transfer files, but the PC wouldn't detect the phone. It wasn't charging when connected to the computer either. I tried different USB cables and different computers - same problem. If I turn the phone off it suddenly charges, which tells me the USB port on the phone is working. I also tried different chargers too.
My device is rooted, so I thought it may be the ROM I'm running. I wiped the device and flashed another ROM, but still the same problem persists.
It seems like a firmware issue to me as it charges when the phone is switched off. I hardly ever use the USB port on my S6 as I usually charge wireless. I tried cleaning any lint and dust out the port too using compressed air and a toothpick - it didn't help.
Does anyone have any idea what the fault may be?
Are You using USB 3.0 port? Cause I had the same problem. Usb 3.0 never recognised my device. Now after I flashed 6.0.1 the problem is gone.

Tried on USB 3.0, USB 2.0 and a power brick, Mac and PC - all the same result.
Similar Problem
I have similar problem too. My phone is Samsung Galaxy Alpha. Yesterday, I charge my phone using Pineng Powerbank and then i notice that it show the lightning symbol but the battery is not charging but decrease and my phone become too hot. Since I don't bring the charger, I'd try to connect with different USB cable to PC and the problem is still the same. Then I remove the battery for few minute until the phone is cooling down. After switch on the phone again, my phone quickly heating up but the battery is normal. I'd buy new battery for replacement but the problem still occur. My phone also is not charging when in safe mode and only charging when it is turn off. Then I made a factory reset and it's work. Both of my battery is working too. What is actually happening? Does the powerbank is the culprit or virus? Thank you.
Hi all, i have a problem with my s6. I repaired my s6 usb port and changed it with a new one. But still my phone charges at 250mah instead of 2000 and my pc wont recognise it, any suggestions?
A kind of "script-type" solution, but have you tried different USB cable? I suggest you buy a proper one, like 28/24 gauge USB cable.
These are a bit more expensive, but charge very well. Much better quality and charge faster.
Already changed ton of cables and usb ports, still the same problem

I think your charging ic on logic board needs replacing. Only micro solderer people can replace that. Might not be worth for you.
i ve lent it on a samsung repairer guy. they changed battery, connector and installed a new os. now they said they should give me it tonight or tomorrow.. let s see if it works

The way I read that you're expecting to get rapid charge from pc ports. Need a rapid charger for rapid charging.

Same issue here. Think its related to a charging chip
Hi,
I've got the exactly same problem here. Repacinfg battery and the USB port of the phone did not solve the problem. Did your repairing work out? Any more ideas?

Hello all :
I have exactly the same problem that you all I have 250 to 300ma really charge, that it is any charger of 0.5 amps 3.1 amps either with a quick charger from Samsung or quick charge 2.0 or other, any cable too, and any rom, tested Global, Lineage and stock.
Oooo, and i tested with a custom charger, 9v 2amps, nothing change !!! 0.250amps and 5hours to 50% -> 100%....
Is really strange problem.
Any Idea ? is possible to limitation software ???

Yes is possible, but here i dont know.. beacause, it would have quite different effects depending on the chargers and on the voltage. here we have, in my case, the same problem regardless of the charger amps or voltage.
this is more like a software crash of the chips in the worst case.
Other hand I noticed that I had lost all utilities USB my phone example when I plug it on my computer it is absolutely not recognized... Any Idea for that ???
Thanks

Need help.
In software, how or where is manageme the charge ? In the kernel ?
Is strange, the charge is blocking at 250ma...
I need some opinions on what part to repair on my Poco X3 NFC. My story is the following:
One day, precisely 2 years and 2 months after purchase (so just outside of any waranty, grrrrrr...), my mobile stopped charging the battery with a normal 1 Amp USB charger. Only a fast charger with USB power delivery still worked. 5 charging cycles later the phone did no longer charge at all, it ran out of battery and couldn't be turned on again.
I changed the charging port PCB, which is quite cheap and for a few days things were normal again. Then the same thing happened: Only a fast charger with USB power delivery still worked. 5 charging cycles later the phone did no longer charge at all.
Now my phone is dead again. Since changing the charging port PCB with the IC was not the problem, what do you suggest to do next?
Had the same problem.
Neither new charging port nor a new batterie helped.
The problem was die Mainboard cable. It only costs a few euros/dollars and is very simple to change.
I don't understand how a cable which doesn't move can break but the problem was definitely the cable.

Do you happen to have a good explanation why this happened to me twice? What are the odds of "first normal charging breaks, then fast charging breaks a few days later"? And to continue speculating: do you think I need a new charging port PCB this time as well?
It looks like my charging problems are solved by using a new charging port PCB and cable. At least for now the phone is still charging. However, I seem to have problems with 4G reception after the change. Does anyone have similar problems? No 4G after charging port PCB change?
I had the same issue with not being able to charge. I also couldn't use the aux port anymore. I replaced the port dock, but happened to break the main flex cable so I also replaced that. So it could've been either.
My 4G is working fine. Maybe you messed up the antenna?
