[Q] micro usb port drop into water - Sony Xperia ZL

my micro usb cable's port dropped into water, as after 15 min of drying it when to connect it to my cell with my pc, firstly my cell switched off, after switching on it only charges my cell, no mtp mode is coming, no usb degguging is getting on, do anyone knows isnt my cells usb port had gone wrong or my usb cable's one ? plz rply fast !

I would say the copper in your cable is rusty, so data transfer probably couldn't be done since data transfer need more ideal conditions than normal charging

USB SYNC and DATA cable does not work

HI
I bought a USB SYNC AND CHARGE cable from http://www.pdaaddons.com.
The cable is able to sync the PDA but not charge it .
http://www.addonsworld.co.uk/product.php/21603/578/
I am not sure if I have been cheated or is there something wrong in what I am doing .
I had a cable for my IPAQ 6315 and it use to work beautifully .
Can anyone tell me if they have bought cables from PDAADDONs.COM and if they have worked.
Dhruv
hi..
Im not an expert but i think the charging might have something to do with your computer, i dont think all computers are able to sync and charge through the same USB port...
Have you tried any other cables???did they ever work??? as i say im just kinda accurately guessing the prob...

Hi everyone, i think i have the solution of XDA II not charging on USB port using XDA sync/charger cable... if u want the XDA II charging from USB, just open up the connector and disconnect the 20,21,22 pins from USB bus power line. After that, u can use XDA sync/charge cable in any USB port and they will sync and charge the XDA II.
How i know this??? 'cos i "reverse-engineered" the connection of the cradle... i was wondered y using the same usb port, the cradle can charge while the sync cable can't... so i test all the connection of the cradle and found that pin 20,21,22 and also pin 2 is disconnect. The pin 20,21,22 only connected to power when u plug in the DC into the cradle. This mean that pin 20,21,22 connected to DC (+) while the pin 2 is connected to DC (-) only when u plug in the external DC supply to the cradle.
I've modified my XDA sync cable and now i can charge my XDA II on any USB port even from my laptop. Hope this helps for those who purchased the XDA sync/charge cable to use with XDA II.
To those who like to go further....
The only problem that i can c now is that if u modified the cable and u use it with a car adaptor, will it charge the XDA II as fast as possible like when u plug in the external DC supply? OR will it only trickle charge the XDA II as using USB port? i really don't know 'cos i don't have a car here with me to try it out... but i think it will only trickle charge the XDA II only...
Therefore, to those who like to get charge faster in the car, u can install a small switch connected between the USB power line and pin 20,21,22. By switching the switch, u can choose between trickle charge and fast charge.
I can somehow understand what you are trying to say .
1. Why are these websites selling cables when they dont charge.
2. Can i do something at home to make it work.
3. How do I know if my cable has the right connections.
4. Can there be something abt usb 1 and usb 2.
Dhruv
USB 1 or 2 is not an issue. I charge and sync with my cable from proporta.com on my Dell laptop which is only USB 1.
Some computers don't kick out enough down the USB to power external devices so I presume charging might be the same. You haven't said if you've tried it on other PCs? If you only have 1 PC, go to a friends and plug it in. It'll ask for drivers but cancel out of it and it should be charging. If it doesn't charge off a full size desktop then its fair to say you've been 'stitched up' or it was never meant to charge. Simple really.
Dhruv and others....
There is a simple kit, now a days which we get in market, which has a USB cable, a car chaqrger and a power plug.The Cable can be used with both Car and Power pluag and for Syncing AND IT BLOODY WELL CHARGES THE XDA TOOO....works with XDA II as well as with Blue Angel.If one uses universal USB 2.0 a Magician can also be then compatible...
Price!!!!!! 12 USD....!!!!!!

Hi Dhruv,
Go to Gaffar Market or Palika Bazar...and ask for it...u may get it for Rs 400!!!!!!!.
USB SYNC AND DATA CABLE
what is suprising the cables did not work on my notebook or my pc at home but when I used it in office it works just fine.
So there is something to think about :-
is it the usb power managment that creates this issue .
or
windows 2000 patch ....

Anyone having USB connect issues?

Sometimes my phone will not charge when connected to the wall or my computer. The problem usually goes away on it's own, but when I need to charge I generally need to charge.
Sometimes I cannot access my phone via USB on PC either.
Only with data to and from the computer. No charging issues at all.
I've never had issues when plugged in to computer (USB). I frequently have issues when plugging into wall charger, but I think I have a bad cable. Phone will recognize charger connect, sit for a second, and lose the connection. Charging stops while cable is in. I bought a cheap cable on-line for the wall charger. I guess you get what you pay for....!
I have issues with usb connnect to computer since flashing cm6 8/13 nightly. Will not charge or mount usb.
Restoring back to 8/11 seems to fix issue but can't seem to get any newer nightlys to work or rc2.

Kind of sounds like a loose connector. I bought some micro USB cables from monoprice and the size of the connector was just a tad smaller than the plug for the phone. So if the cable wasn't plugged in and propped up in a certain way, the phone wouldn't charge. I just bought some new cables from monoprice (the ferite core ones) and problem solved.
I guess when this happens to you, wiggle the cable a little and then hold it for a few seconds at a certain angle and see if it starts charging... if it does then you know you need a new cable.
I was having similar issues and with my sd card permission issues I simply uninstalled my usb drivers and my removable disc drivers for the phone on the computer I think there was like 3 sets and haven't had an issue since.

[Q] USB Charging

Hi, why cant i charge my play trough the usb cable?
I don't know, why don't you ask someone from tech support?
You can.
Get a new cable, its around 2-4euros.

Some more details would be nice.
Does your phone just won't charge, while connected to your pc via USB,
or do you also can't get any access through USB to your phone?!

It depends where the USB is connected to. Not all computers (and other appliances) support charging external devices through USB.
as the above poster said not all computers support charging but also some cables have diferent connectors so some may only support data transfer and nothing more
This is the orriginal cable that i got with the play, it does transfer data, the red light which shows that its charging is off, the battery icon shows that its charging, while actually its not charging at all.
my USB does support charging because my Ipod can be charged from it.
Ok well you have two options you can try a difrent charger and see if its just the cable or call sony

Phone not charging or connecting to PC

My wife's phone will no longer charge or connect to a PC with any USB cord. If I kind of wiggle or bend the cord where it connects to the phone, the phone will charge for a brief moment or connect to the PC.
Is there anything I can try other than replacing the charging port? I don't think I quite have the soldering skills for that.
If I have to replace the motherboard, is the internal storage located on the motherboard?
Replacing the charging port is pretty cheap and is probably the answer to that.

Charging with USB Cable

I had recently purchased the C6502. At work I do not have AC power outlet to charge the phone. So I generally used to charge my old smartphone (LG Optimus 4X HD) with a blackberry USB cable. I used to charge my old phone by connecting to the monitor's USB port using the blackberry cable. Though the phone showed as "Slow charging", it served the purpose.
But now using the same Blackberry USB cable and the same USB port, if i try to charge the C6502, it just lights up the screen and does not show any charging indication or the notification LED light.
Am I missing something here or the phone charges only with the original Sony provided USB cable?
Note: The same USB cable and the USB port work perfectly fine for other smart phones my colleagues are having like Galaxy grand, Lumia 610, HTC Desire SV etc. Of course when connected to the usb port all these phones are showing as slow charging, but they do charge slowly. But my XZL does not even charge. So I am definitely sure the cable and the port are perfectly fine.
Is there a way I can charge my XZL with the USB cable using the USB port?
Does your phone get charged on the provided charger?does the battery icon indicate charging bcoz this phone is vry vry slw when charging frm pc

Let me explain it more clearly.
At my work the USB ports on the CPU are disabled. But the monitors are having USB ports which can be connected to the CPU through another cable, so that USB devices can be connected to the monitor's USB ports insteading of leaning till the CPU under the desk. But those ports are not connected to the CPU so the ports on the monitor just act as a power source but not as data source. So we use the monitor's usb ports for charging our devices like phones, ipods etc.
As i had already told that my XZL screen lights up when connected to the port using the blackberry cable, but no indication of charging as well as no LED light. Same case with another colleague's Xperia SP.

as simple as your device does not detect any pc therefore it doesnt accept charging depends from phone to phone

So sony does not support "chaging only" mode using USB cable. How pathetic !!!. Supposed to be a "Smart phone" but really do not understand why cut down basic features.
Can anybody confirm if this cut down of a basic feature is a standard for Sony phones?
No buddy usb charging works when pc is on!i checked it doesnt charge when main supply is on bt cpu is off but it charges when cpu is on

USB charging
I have observed two things -
1) Yes, it does not charge in some cases. I have a power bank cable, with this cable it charges for some time but then it just stops charging without any reason. If you reinsert the plug, it starts charging again.
Other times, it does not charge with USB ports, for example my car music player's USB port. But what I have noticed is, if USB connectivity mode is changed from MTP to MSC or vice-versa it works.
Also some cables do not have two spring notches, and fit quite loose. In such cases pushing cable vertically up or down gets it charging again. But this is very very rare case.
2) I was not able to charge it from front USB port of my PC, but when connected to back USB port, it was charging fine.
My conclusion is, it does not charge if charging rate is too low or mode is incorrect.
I would suggest, try with original Sony USB cable in your office and check if it works. If still it does not, change connectivity mode. Else its a cable issue(not exactly, but phone and cable have some mismatch).
PS - I had similar problem with my chinese tablet. Out of more than 5 cables, It charges with only one cable from Nokia(it does not even charge with original tab USB cable ). I think there are separate data pins and power pins. But data pins can double as power pins. I think there was some damage to the tab USB pins, because of which data pin no more works as power pin and hence it does not charge and requires cable having power pins. Can somebody throw more light on this?
Relax its just u need a pc on to charge it it happens in my case too n my phone works fy9 with any cable
