I am sure my problem is different from everyone here becuase i did alot of digging and cudnt find any solution to my problem. So my problem is that a month ago i got my samsung's original charger not working anymore, Which turned out that just adapter is faulty. so i bought an apple adapter for my s3, which worked quite well. But a few hours ago i found my samsung galaxy s3 not charging. i flashed my rom again, did factory restore, anything i cud do as a first aid. i did it. i checked my phone on my bros charger but still no success. and his charger is working fine with his mobile, I have noticed that it connects without taking a second when i restart phone in download mode. But doesnt plug in to my laptop aswell( But works when phone is in download mode).
Note: My personal charger is working fine on my bro's cell.
Thanks!!

Try a different charger on your phone, if that works your cable needs to be replace or charger with cable replaced, if a different charger does not work then your phones USB port is damaged and needs a service repair.
There are multiple micro connections so it may connect to your PC in download mode but if the connections that link the charger are not working it wont charge.
So try a deferent charger and a different USB cable if neither make the phone charge the USB port on the phone needs to be looked at by a technician to repair it.

Today I wanted to charge my phone via USB. But now it is discharging. Why ? I'm using another microUSB cable, not original one. Phone says charging(USB) but i've lost 40% so far.
Mine does this too - I've found turning it off, letting it charge for a bit in the off state, then turning it back on again gets it to charge properly again
I have read many threads around the web, and there seems to be many errors concerning charging errors with the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10 Mini Pro.
In my case it was the usb micro cable it self.
Day 1
I received the mob.
Charged it to full, using usb cable and AC/DC/USB-adapter, while i was turned on.
Day 2
Checked out the mob until there was only 15% left on the battery indicator.
Trying to charge just like day1...faliure...nothing happens :-(
Trying to charge via PC...faliure...nothing happens :-(
Trying to charge just like day1 with mob turned off...succes...it is charging
I let it charge to the next day.
Day 3.
Morning...i can see it has stopped charging...it must be full ?
I turn on the mob.
Nope only 46% ??? Damn.
I try charging while on, via adapter and PC...faliure :-(
I leave it on the table for about 2 hours and then come back.
I plug out the cable and...hmmm...the micro connector is a bit warm...hmmm
The mob i cold all over...it might be the cable thats faulty
I get my HTC HD2 usb micro cable...plug it in...and plug it to adapter
Succes Its charging...also via PC.
It seems:
The standard SE micro usb cable (that we are warned, only to use) is faulty.
I have read that many, have got their mob back from service repair, and i still dosent work ? Time after time.
It must be because, the service repair center is using their own micro usb cable, and there by not discovering what the real error is....the standard cable following the mini is defekt.
I have written to SE in Denmark...im waiting for their answer...if they are wise, then they are going to check their hole stock of cables
Well i got an answer fro SE
Guess what the answer was ???
"We have never had errors like that in our service department!"
I know the are lying, or just ignoring errors, because my daugthers friend had the exact same problem...witch SE couldent repair (2 attempts).
Posetive thing:
SE offered to change my micro usb cable to a new 1 (faulty one i guess)
I wrote back to SE:
I do not need a new cable since i have 3 working noname micro usb cables!
And explained the hold shabang 1 more time, telling them that the repair center would not catch the error unless, they used the exact same cable as the costumer!.
Since then i havent heard from SE
Conclusion:
SE doesnt give a damn about their costumers problems
Consequence:
I dont wanna buy an SE cellphone ever again!!! (this phone was for my daughter).
From now on i stick to HTC...ive got at HTC HD2 and i just LOOOOOOVE IT
PS. The micro usb cable for my HD2 works perfect with the mini pro. No charging errors at all
hello...
Well guys i was with the same problem... the mobile was discharging when connected to USB port... so i just changed the USB port and it begun to charge!!!!!
SOmetimes the USB port has no power to charge so u may change it...
for me it worked well.
good luck
I have this problems, since few days ago.
And after a search in many web pages, the solutions didn´t appear, I don´t know, if this a issue whit the usb cable or the usb slot in the phone, I really try differents things, turn on while push the camera button, or the - vol button, sometimes work, but is really a pain in the a...
if someboby already find a solution lets us know.

thank you for your helpful message t.siddharth
i had the same problem with my phone, initially i replaced the cable then i sent the phone for repair twice as the first time it was not fixed.
6 months later the charging fault reoccurs, so i took phone apart myself and found that the mini usb socket had come away from the pcb.
I cannot seem to get the phone to identify on the PC with anything but the Samsung USB cable.
The problem is... I think I already lost it.
I have 4 basically new microUSB cables from various sources and none of them will do anything but charge.
WTheck has samsung done?
Did you try changing the mode on your phone from Change Only to the Hard Drive one once you connect it?
Try a different USB port. This phone works on every USB cable I have in my possession.
i find mine charges really slow unless i use the samsung one:/

Because the phone only charges it does not adapt a mode and therefore wont' let me change it.
edit: fixed it. Problem was I used a program to try and turn on UMS mode and it wasn't working. Wouldn't do any other mode until I turned it back.
But I still have had problems usb cables. The one with my Nook for example wont work at all and it worked with both my nook and my atrix.
S3 wont even recognize on a mac.
surprize me with something amazing android your boring me.
Mine works with the Sensation cable on my main PC, my G2X cable on my laptop and with my Lumia cable in my gym (charger). It also works fine at work with a generic cable (on a PC). Either your phone or your cable is defective.
EDIT: make sure your drivers are up to date on your PC.
Mine works fine with BlackBerry/HTC/HP cables.
Hello, i am new to xda-developers, so please have patience with me
I was using my original usb cable to charge my phone from my laptop. But one day some strange things started to happen, when my phone's battery was completely depleted i connected the usb and phone started turning on and off very often and I wasn't able to charge it even a bit. When connected to wall socket charger everything seems to be fine, it's charging.
But now the usb is not working, neither computer sees it (before i used it), i used other cables, no good. Now it's original ginderbread ROM, maybe i should reinstall it, but i can't do anything since usb is not working in any way.
Maybe someone of you had similar problems and know how to solve it?
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the quick reply!
I tried cleaning it with Tooth Brush and even used special liquid for cleaning electronics contacts and corrosion removal, everything seems to be clean. But still nothing happens when connecting to laptop.
P.S. Same cable is working when charging from wall socket charger, so it seems the contacts must be clean and intact (at least power supply contacts), so maybe it should charge from laptop?
P.S.S. I forgot to mention, when the phone's battery is depleted, when i connect to laptop, it doesn't charge but in time phone becomes hot. So maybe this would prove it's a hardware problem?
Try different laptop USB port. If this doesnt help than probably your data cable is faulty. Just replace it with another one.
I think Your phone is fully operational if AC charging without any problems.

I have already tried different laptop ports, even different laptops, already tried with different cables (which all functioning properly with other devices and all are marked U2). I am pretty sure that's not connection / cable problem.
Hi.
I left phone with charger plugged in and went shopping.
When I came back to my crib I found out that phone didn't charge at all.
I found it strange, so I plugged the other charger, but it didn't work as well.
Then I plugged the other phone into the chargers. Both worked well.
I tried to plug USB into PC and it didn't work either. I made a factory reset and tried all steps again, but still no result.
It looks like USB port died itself...everything in port looks good, nothing broken or moving inside of it.
I wouldn't mind if I could reapply my drm keys, so I could update OTA Lollipop or Install ftf. I could just charge phone by magnetic port. But now I'm stuck with nothing.
What to do?
Hello,
Tried one other USB cable ?
If not OK with other USB cable, you can try installing Flashtool and drivers for your phone, power OFF phone and connect it in fastboot mode or the other (I don't remember the name) to see if the USB are really dead. No reset needed for that and this test call the 1 level hardware of the phone.
Mine not working aswell. The port seem to be loosen and only certain angle my pc would detect it. After a month of trying to get the right angle i think it broke. Went to my local phone shop they recommend me to have sony replace the usb port. Its gonna cost me so for now im using magnetic charger. Tried open it up to see if anything i could do but the port is tight sealed so im guessing a visit to Sony service center is inevitable.
My cellphone when I plug the USB cable dont charge. I think is the USB Port. I tried find one on Aliexpress but im not sucessful. Someone can indicate where i can find this? Tks
No, wait a moment. It's happened to me. Try a clean install with fastboot or edl.

When the cellphone is off this happen too. If is software problem when is off should charge, or am i wrong?
i don't know why, but in my case usb port was unaccessible always!! Try to restore a stock rom
If I get this right, you cannot connect your phone via Xiaomi branded USB to PC. But what about when it is plugged in to the Xiaomi charger?
I had (may still have) a problem, when I unlocked my phone. I couldn't connect to my PC through the Xiaomi cable and when I plugged in the Xiaomi charger, if the phone was turned off I would get a red blinking and If the phone was turned on, it wouldn't charge.
If this is your problem (Since I am not sure if what I did worked 100%) I would recomend you to use another USB cable (but remember to use the other USB/charger at least a minute later from the time you unplug the Xiaomi one).
What I did (I have read about it on the MIUI forum), was to remove the back cover and unplug the battery cables and re-plug them again. At first, it seemed to work. When I turned off my phone, I had the same problem. But yesterday it seemed like there was no problem. So I cannot guarantee that this works 100% .....
My phone is redmi note 3 special edition and
My sister phone is Redmi note 3 pro so i tried to use her USB port but doesn't fit and not working but tody after 1 month i use digital multimeter and i connect my charger and i check USB port so there is volt and i went to the cable that between USB port to motherboard also work and i check between motherboard and battery also work so i after that my phone boot up and then i connect the battery to motherboard and i see my phone charging the truth is i don't know how my phone go back to life haha coz i didn't find USB port part online for it.

Sorry for my bad English.
