My treo 650 wont charge the charger is always shaky i just got a new one and it's giving the same problem

Question

Post relates to: Treo 650 (Cingular)

Answer 1

I have had an issue that I have been dealing with for about a year that sounds just like this.  I found they were due to poor electrical connections.  Check and clean all the electrical connection contacts for the battery to the phone, and the phone to the cord.  Because I had plugged and unplugged the phone so much, the hole for the power cord was very dirty and had become quite worn and was bigger than it should have been.  I first did like you and got a new cord, this helped but I still had issues. So because I was cheap and did not want to send the phone out for repair to replace the worn parts, or get a new phone, I spent some time and rigged it up nicely.  After cleaning the contacts on the phone, I started working on the cord to tighten it up.  So with the charger unplugged from the wall and the phone, I very carefully pried up on the contacts that plug into the phone so they would stick out a little more.  This helped, but not good enough.  I then tried to tighten up the worn hole.  At first, I used a small piece of trimmed electric tape that made the plug thicker, this worked, but the tape kept coming off.  When I finely got tired of that,  I cleaned the tape off of it and started building up several thin layers of superglue making sure not to get it on the contacts.  After I was sure the glue was fully dry!  I plugged the cord in the worn out hole and it fit, and worked like new. That was almost a year ago.  I have had to re-apply glue once after it had wore down some.  I also found that a desk charger where the phone stands up works pretty good.  It still has and issue from time to time.  I just have to wiggle it a bit and I can get it to work. 
Best of luck with your issue.
