whenever my phone is powered off (or I power it off) while it's on the charger
it will power back on. anyone know why it's doing this? could it be the USB wire/charger?
The screen should just light up with a battery symbol to show charging.

it SHOULD do this, but it doesn't
if the phone is off and I plug the charger in
it will start charging, but it will also power on :|

If your on GB, then its a known issue. But if this is happening on froyo, then I would ODIN EB13, root, and flash SFR.

what do you mean? like a docking station?
or just a regular Samsung charger that would fit my phone and several other Samsung phones?
They mean a charger that fits the battery to charge it outside of the phone.

So, I turned my phone off to charge it one night and realized I left my charger in the car. My G2x charger was still in my room. So, I plugged it in. To my surprise, instead of charging my phone, it put my GS2 into download mode.
So, now instead of messing with the buttons trying to get it right, I just turn my phone off, plug it into that charger and then plug it into my computer to use with Odin.
I have no idea why it does this, but hey, I kind of like it.
And, that is my dumb story for the day.

Maybe a pin configuration diff in the charger. That's about the only thing I can think of that may be able to pull it off. Good to know. Thanks
I would not trust using a wierd cable in Odin, good thing it didn't disconnect or anything during the flash or you could of very well bricked the device
just words of caution

I semi-bricked my device for a few minutes because my Computer froze when I was updating to 2.3.6 and it shut down Odin. Sooo happy I got it fixed

Weird. I wonder why mine doesn't. Do you use it with the phone off?
My g2x charger does the same. There have been threads on it already.
Here's one. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1314284
This also means that we now can have a jig for bricked phones, right? Figure out what's the pin configuration that forces it into download mode?

My dog bit mine, at the LG sign. It turned it into a jig.
Ok so I just went to plug my phone in to charge and it's not charging. No LED and no indication from the phone itself that there is charging going on. This is totally random as I charged it last night without issue and haven't modified anything for a few days now. Any ideas?

Hi everyone !
Yesterday I was using my phone, and after a few minutes without using it, when I tried to wake it up, nothing happened ! The screen stays black all the time, and the charging LED light doesn't turn on too.
I don't understand, nothing happened to the phone (no fall or anything). And now it just seems ... dead !!!
Could someone help me ?
Thanks !
The phone is rooted with S-Off and a custom ROM ...
If you pull out the battery and place it back does it boot then?
Try pulling the battery and then replace it while holding both volume buttons and the power button.

If pulling the battery doesn't do it, it's probably really dead. I also once had a dead Desire, stopped working from one moment to the other. If there's warranty left, send it in.

Your phone is dead.
That happened to my first desire hd. I had to take it in to vodafone for them to send off for repair :-(
Question : when you do take in for repair can they tell if you rooted it ?

Yeah clearly I think my phone is dead. I'll try to repair it and sell it.
Anyway, I bought a Galaxy S I9000, I hope it will last a bit longer !
I had two problems with my DHD. But to keep history short, I'll tell only the second:
My seemed bricked. It didn't power on and when I plugged the charger, the LED didn't turn on.
As I work with electronics, I measured the phone's battery and it had 0.0V. So, I took an adjustable power supply and charged the battery for 2 minutes with 3.7V.
I put the battery back in the phone, plugged the charger and the LED turned orange!
Perhaps you could try the same procedure...
And tomorrow I'll try to fix the 1st problem.
My phone keeps showing that it is charging even though it is not. When I run touchwiz roms it says charging paused voltage is too high. On AOSP roms however it just shows the icon as if it is charging but the battery is not on a charger nor is anything charged into the usb port. Also this kills my battery fast bc it doesn't allow my phone to sleep properly. Anyway I can fix this myself or do I need to bring it to a Sprint Store?

From what I've read, it's either a dirty or defective charging port. Try cleaning but you may have to take it in.

Hey guys. Im having some issues with my s3 and the otg cable. So I was in the car for a road trip. And I was playing games with the otg cable and a ps3 controller. Then I put my things away and put it in my bag and fell asleep. When I woke up I tried to play a game again and when I plugged it in the notification bar kept saying " usb connecter connected" then 1 second later "usb connecter disconnect ed". Any help?
You seem to have damaged the connector by any chance ?

My charger works fine and the cable works on other devices.
Does it work for data on other devices, or just charging.
Try another cable anyway. They do get messed up easily.

The pins used for data transfer could become damaged while the ones used for charging remain intact. Works the same way on a cable too.
