Curve 8330 Shows full charge using USB Cable on Desktop, but isn't fully charged.

I have an issue with my 8330 and Charging. I plug it into the computer using the supplied USB Cable to download/ upload media while it charges using my desktop. Last night it indicated it was fully charged, so after downloading some things onto it, I shut it down and disconnected it from the desktop.
This morning I got to work and turned it on and the battery life indicator on the home screen showed it was 3/4 charged. The time on the clock was off also and I had to go in and update the time in the settings tab. When I returned to the home screen from updating the time, the battery indicator showed half full. This is the second incident where after charging the phone either on the USB Cable connection or the wall charger, I've turned it on the next morning only to have half a charge or a little more. Any information on this would be helpful. Thanks!

Try Restoring it (this will remove all data from the iPod), resync, use it until the battery is low, and then fully charge it. And make sure your Dell is set to provide full power to USB ports.

    Plugged in my Apple tv to tv and light flashing non stop.Tv screen showing iTunes logo and USB cable.Not responding to anything

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
    Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source list)
    Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
    Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
    Open iTunes.
    Select your Apple TV in the Source list, and then click Restore.

  • IPod touch frozen on screen showing apple symbol and usb cable.

    Pod touch frozen on screen showing apple symbol and usb cable. Happened during a update attempt.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    Finally, if the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.

  • HT201412 it shows itunes logo and usb cable with arrow after that it switch off itself

    iPAD shows itunes logo and usb cable with arrow after that it switch off itself

    If the Restore doesn't work, force your iPad into Recovery Mode:
    1. Turn off iPad
    2. Connect USB cable to computer; leave the other end alone
    3. Press and hold the Home button down and connect the docking end of cable to iPad
    4. Continue holding the Home button until you see the "Connect To iTune" screen
    5. Release the Home button
    6. Open iTune
    7. You should see "iTunes has detected an iPad in recovery mode"
    8. Use iTune to restore iPad
    Note: You need to be patient and repeat the above many times to recover your iPad

    First, knock off the all caps typing. It is considered shouting, rude, and is just plain hard to read.
    Since you use the term "PC," are you using an Apple computer or something that is Windows based?

  • I m trying to send a email and sms alert using php and it works fine on all systems except on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india. plz help

    I m trying to send a email and sms alert to people and it works fine on all systems expect on Iphone,the problem is swedish charcters doesn't show on iphones used by people in sweden but works absolutely fine on iphones in india.
    the code i m using is right below,plz have a look and not into the problem as problem is a bit strange.
    $headers = "MIME-Version: 1.0\n" ;
                $headers .= "Content-Type: text/plain; charset=\"UTF-8\"\n";
                $headers .= "X-Priority: 1 (Highest)\n";
                $headers .= "X-MSMail-Priority: High\n";
                $headers .= "Importance: High\n";
                // Additional headers
                $headers .= 'From: Rakesh <[email protected]>' . "\r\n";
                foreach($disemail as $email)
                    $to = $email;
                    $subject = $succMessage['email_subject'];
                    $message = $smsText;
                    mail($to,'=?UTF-8?B?'.base64_encode($subject).'?=',$message,$header);
            if (stripos($_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'], 'MSIE') !== FALSE) {
            $smsText = utf8_encode($smsText);

    i have tried this new charset combination specifically for iphone and i m waiting for response from sweden alliance.....i hope this works fine as iso works great for 8-bit characters.
    would like to have your thoughts though.
    $headers .= "Content-Type:text/plain; charset=\"iso-8859-1\"\n  format=flowed Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable";

  • Battery charging of ipad2 using USB cable

    I am unable to charge my ipad2 when attached via USB to any of my computers.  It states "not charging" on the ipad.  Are there any settings I need to change in order to charge via USB?

    chris5354 wrote:
    Ipad 2 will charge with usb cable even it show "not charging" it just take a longer time because regular usb port does not give out 10w, let connected overnight and you'll see its charging...
    or you can install a software called ai_chargexxx (i forget the full name) on your PC, just google it
    This is not correct.  If the battery icon on your iDevice doesn't show the lightning bolt, it isn't charging no matter how long you leave it on there.  Most accessory USB ports on computers aren't powered and are bus-powered drawing power from the computers USB interface without a seperate power hookup.  That aside, for devices the require more power than this, they will not work with this type of USB, as in the iPad.  Most USB's that have the juice to power anything are typically found on the back of the computer and typically only provide 500mA which again is pretty low.  That would charge it, but you might as well watch corn grow which would be faster.
    As for the software you speak of, not heard of it, but willing to check it out.

  • Can n86 charge using usb cable connected to power ...

    I know that nokia n86 is chargeable via usb cable connected to the computer/laptop. However, I don't always have a laptop or computer with me while I'm travelling so I was wondering, is it possible to charge my n86 using a usb cable connected to a power socket using a usb adapter like those used to charge mp3 players if I didn't bring the charger with me? will it spoil the phone?
    Thanks in advance.

    should work fine as long as it is an official USB device. I have a Nokia USB charger and that is rated at 5V/1200mA and I have used a 3rd party USB charger and that has worked also. As I understand it you need something with at least 5V/500mA. I think my 3rd party one was about 600mA

  • Usb cable does everything but charge

    This seems very odd but when i hook my itouch 2g into my computer with my usb cable itunes picks it up right away and i can sync to it.... however it will not charge. To be more clear, the usb chord prevents the itouch from shutting down but will not charge it past a minimal lvl of being able to run.
    Also, when i plug in the itouch with the usb the battery icon in the top right constantly is switching between the plugged in icon and the charging icon. And the big battery pic in the middle does show up but it stays at 1 red bar.
    I should say that this is not my original chord. I lost my original chord and bought a new one which (according to seller) is new and is the same one that comes with itouch. The first time i tried the new chord it fully charged my itouch!!! So I dont know what the issue is.
    by the way i already restored through itunes and that didnt help.
    heres the chord i am using

    Have you tested the charger?
    That would of course be the part to take the brunt of a power surge and it is about the only thing you can change.
    Taking it Apple for a check out sounds like a smart move.
    If your power is that unreliable, I strongly suggest that you get device to condition the power for all of your electronics before you lose more.
