try vol up+power till you got 3 vibrations then turn on again, or try power button while you plug charge...
more information...?
I had this problem too. Powering off device with small button near to SIM card worked for me. You will need sth small, that would fit into tiny hole, some kind of neddle, wire.

What does that button do...
I think that used to reset the phone
Hello, I have the same problem. My phone has stopped charging. No charge even in the off state. When you connect the USB cable being off or on the computer has failed USB devices. I've already trying with other cables and other chargers. I do not think it's a problem because the connector is in good condition.

My G2 didn't charge last night. I tried multiple chargers, batteries, wall sockets, and even a USB connection to my laptop. The cables fit snugly into the micro USB port on the unit. When I plug it, nothing happens. no charging indicator. T-Mobile tech support told me to buy a new phone.
Is there anything else I can try?
UPDATE: Tried a master reset but no change. Is it a hardware issue with the port?
Broken micro usb port
That's my fear. Time to figure out a replacement.
A simelar problem
Hi there, i think i have the same problem.
Only one thing is different. When i putt it on the charger the charging indicator blinks for 3 times and thats is. Does anyone has a idee?

check whether the fast boot is turned off before trying (volume down+ power button.)

Yes, you can try to repair the phone replacing charging controller. At official HTC Service repair cost will probably be equal to buying mainboard from ebay or aliexpress.com - around $80-95. Individual (non-certified) service men will do that for $25-30, but risk of killing the phone in this case is pretty high. But in the situation described above there's nothing to loose.
Another solution: in case your phone is working well with pre-charged battery you can buy one masterpiece by chineese manufacturers - universal charger or charger like this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00BMHD6LA/ref=oh_details_o00_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Try with another battery (pre-charged). If the phone boots up normally and works well - see my previous post.
Its most likely a 3 dollar USB port that probably needs replacing, have a look in there and see if there is any visible damage as in broken away contacts.
If you want to replace it yourself its not terrible to do if your OK at soldering, had to do this to a few phones and only once did I fail, but then I don't consider my self an expert at fine soldering.

My phone won't turn on. I own a samsung galaxy nexus (verizon). I've had it for 16 months. I was talking on my phone then ended the call. Had it charging to the wall. Set my alarm for the morning. When I woke up my phone was off. I tried to turn it on. No luck. I did the 10 second volume down plus power button. Still nothing. I pulled the battery and did the wall charger no luck. I plugged it into my computer with the usb. It doesn't register it. The phone has no lights on it. The screen doesn't light up notifying me of it charging. The little flasher light on the bottom doesn't light up. Please help I'm out of options. I called verizon and they said i'm off warranty. I have no other options that I know of besides to get a new phone. I love my phone. I unlocked and rooted it. I have everything on it. I need to get it back on. Any and every idea will be tried. Thank you!!!!

Question: Did you use the same USB cable from the wall charger to the computer?
Could be a couple of things...if the answer is YES, I would change USB cables and see if that fixes it.
If the answer is NO, you could try to clean out the microUSB port. It's possible that some dust got into it, causing a small shunt or keeping the pins from connecting. I know my previous Galaxy Nexus had this issue...found out I had a piece of lint that somehow got into the MicroUSB port and kept the USB plug from seating correctly.

reply to tkirton
tkirton,
I used a different charger than the micro usb cable. in fact i used multiple different chargers. I also blew out my usb ports and cable. I tried again and again, using different usb ports as well. it didn't work. My computer just doesn't seem to identify the cable or phone like it use to.

If you have exhausted all possible means then the last resort for you is to try the USB jig. Usually it can wake the device up and put it to ODIN mode. If that fails too, then its a possible major hardware failure.

Question , when you connect the charger, does it light up the battery symbol ?
Have u tryed to "center "the phone usb port with a needle or something like that ??
if not plz try this :
1) turn the phone off and take the battery out
2) take a toothpick, knife , pin or whatever will fit into the micro USB slot of the galaxy nexus.
3) VERY VERY slowly make it so that the little shelf like connector is in the middle.
4) connect ur phone and hope it gets back to life

When i connect my charger i get nothing. no symbol no lights no response. and the centering of the usb charger didn't work either. my phone has such a tight fit i couldn't even fit a thumb tack pin into it.
I've done lots or research on the USB jig. I'm going to try it. or find someone that has one. wish me luck!

Good luck. USB Jig might be your last resort before you send it to repair.
Hi XDA
I am using a Sony Xperia S with an unlocked bootloader and root. It is, as the title says, completely bricked and furthermore it isn't responding to my USB cables whether it be to my wall charger or to my computer(s).
I have tried doing a hard reset - both complete and just reboot. But It doesn't vibrate at all, and nothing happens.
I have tried connecting it in flashmode (holding volume button down and connecting to USB), still it doesn't react or show up on my pc.
I have tried using different USB cables (3 of the kind)
I have tried using different USB ports and computers.
I have tried using a different wall charger (still for the same phone though).
All of those things without it responding in any way. It was fully charged and in my pocket and when I was about to check it, it was completely dead. And I haven't been able to do anything. The only thing odd, was the heat just beneath the camera (Guessing that is where the CPU is located.)
If any of you brilliant minds have any kind of advices. I'd be more than happy to try them out!!!!

I am not sure what happened... But after being in the charger for 24+ hours and then getting plugged into the computer with flashtool ready (rubber band method). It suddenly turned on as it should, and when shut off it shows the usual charging screen!
Thanks for your help though!
Before everyone starts accusing me of not running a simple search, take it easy, been done. And yet, nothing to help me on the matter.
So here's the thing:
Her phone won't charge. Not when plugged into the wall, BUT when I plug her phone into the computer it is recognized and allows file transfer and everything, but just that - it still won't charge.
Here's what I've found out so far:
- Not a problem with the charger: I'm using the original charger, and it works flawlessly on my own Gnex running PA 4.4
- Nothing wrong with the battery: swap batteries between phones, my phone works fine with her battery, her phone still won't charge.
- When her phone is completely OFF and I plug it in to my PC, it plays the sound of connecting and disconnecting a device, and prompts that it doesn't recognize the USB device. If I tap the power button for a second while it's off (not holding it long enough for it to turn on), it does the same thing connecting-then-disconnecting sounds and "doesn't recognize the USB device".
So - has anyone ever run into this problem before? Know how to fix it? I know the chances are it's just a hardware malfunction, but it's weird because of the ability to transfer files- usually the problem is the reverse.
In the meantime we're using my phone as a charger for both batteries untill we get the spares and wall charger we ordered, but it's a real pain.
Just trying to find a better solution than taking apart the phone and try and fix it or just ordering a new Nexus 5 (which is tempting, but don't really have the money to spend on it...)

Its the micro USB port the pins are bent homie.
Some pins allow charging some allow data transfer. The ones for charging are damaged in your case.
Sorry to bring bad news.

Yup. Just this moment after a really really really close examination of the port and comparing it to my own phone, one tiny half a millimeter peice of metal is bent out of place and broken. Gotta order a new port ASAP and try and change it.
Thanks mate!
But hey, look at the bright side... a fun home project to immerse myself in instead of prepare for my finals! :laugh:

Back with worse news. Just replaced my wife's micro USB port on her i9250 GNex, and.... same thing. Still won't charge, computer recognizes it. Now I'm completely baffled. Thought for a moment that maybe I had been such a fool as to have put back in the old port, but unfortunately, it wasn't my stupidity.
Ideas, anyone?
Hello, for about 4 months I'm charging the phone with and magnetic Usb cable, today I've bought another one for my other phone and I tested the cable on the Z1 compact and the screen got blank the phone won't power on when pressed the button, I tought I ve bricked the phone, or the battery. Anyway I've pressed volume up and power for about 5-10 seconds and the phone turned on. It seems it works with no problems it charges, BUT the charging led doesnt work anymore. If I recieve a notification it works, all the colors (tested whatsapp, sms, calls), only when I plugged it to charge the led is off.
L. E : I've measured the pins and the new bought cable has the positive switched with the negative. ?
Any suggestions?

Don't use cheap crap.
It started working again . It was my mistake that I didn't checked the polarity of the cable. I will reverse the polarity of the cable.
