Nokia 620 melting usb port

18 month old phone.
Plugged in to top up the charge. Usual charger, usual cable. 20 minutes later smoke and meltdown.
USB port dripping melted plastic. Burnt finger.
A quick goggle and a search on here. I am not alone it seems.
Does anyone have a technical explanation of what the fault is?
All very well reporting to NOKIA. I assume that they are well aware by now. But does anyone know where in the UK you can flag up concerns to consumer or safety organisations?
If the phone had been charging overnight, or placed on a flammable surface this could have been very serious.

  • Nokia 808 micro USB port dock damage.

    I really loved my Nokia 808 pureview mobile. But unfurtunately, by accident the micro USB port was damage. I cannot connect my micro usb cable on it. and also I can't recharge it anymore. Cause it is only charging by the micro usb port only. If I bring my device to the Nokia care Center, will they still accept it and do the repare? Even if it's not a Windows phone 8 OS? 
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    as we are a user to user forum only for Nokia products and services, we cannot advise you here on the matter. you will need to liaise with your nearest Nokia Care outlet directly. as it is the last Symbian device released, i would expect you to at least have some luck with it. do keep us posted as to how you get on.

  • Nokia 2330 Classic - no USB port

    Hi,
    I noted that the above phone does not have a USB port. The user manual for it does not show a USB port but the page on the support web site lists the Nokia Suite Software which shows a USB port!
    I note that it is possible to use Blue tooth!
    Just for documentation

  • Nokia e7 USB port Broken

    Hey!
    Ive brought a nokia e7 about 4 months ago from malaysia.
    i have realised that i cant charge the phone.
    ive sent the phone to nokia repair center in auckland to try and get it repaired.
    They said that something connecting from the circuit board to the usb connecter has been torn and cannot be repaired and this will also count as physical damage.
    Can someone explain to me what has happend to my phone?

    my nokia e7 is currently coming back from nokia repair with the tag "beyond economical repair", i originally sent this in for charging problem back in nov 11 and they fixed it, sent it back. just  took up to nokia care shop and was returned with the tag physical damage after 10 days , so i complained via chat and was told to send it again for repair stating i had not physically damaged it , the phone would not charge ,and if there was any damage to the port it may have been done whilst wiggling the usb to get it to charge but it would not charge in the first place. now its gone in to the service centre and they passed it on to the repair centre and they are sending it back saying its beyond economical repair , which should mean they should replace it with another e7 , but i seriously doubt thats going to happen, i have wrote this because i think everybody should be using this forum to take them to small claims court if they dont plan on replacing the phones due to poor design .this obviously very common place , you just need to google e7 not charging and there are loads complaining about this issue.
    nokia replace my phone its not physical damage its poor design if you can not replace a usb port econmically and poor connection type if they can get easily damaged.

  • Itunes7 not responding with a mobile connected with usb port

    Hello,
    I try to listen music connecting a nokia n91 (hard disk 4gbyte) with the usb port and itunes7.
    often itunes7 crashes (not responding status) and even I shut down the program, then it stops again, and again, and again..
    Obviously with the previous version of itunes I had NO PROBLEMS!!
    it seem that the version 7 has not been tested enough..
    regards,
    dave from italy

    If it boots from the enlosure then I agree with Shootist in that it's more than likely that there's a problem with your SATA cable. Call or contact OWC and tell them the problem that you're having with their drive. They may just ship you a cable free.

  • I just bought a new portable battery. It uses 2 USB ports to charge devices, a 1 amp port and a 2 amp port. My question is which port do I plug my iPhone 5s into and which do I use for my iPad 2?

    It's a 10,000 mAh external battery. I got this for traveling and because I go to disneyland a lot. My phone wont last all day there and unlike some people, I would never plug my phone into their outlets (I watched a girls phone spark and practically melt once), their voltage is way too high. I have other batteries, but when I saw that this one can charge the 5s fully 3-5 times, I new it was a must. Online, there were wonderful reviews about it and that it charges the 5s and the iPad 2 wonderfully. However when I opened the package and read the directions it listed that there were 2 USB ports, a 1 amp and a 2 amp and to match your device to the port. Now it's been a while since I've studied about volts, amps, etc. so the first thing I do is google it. I know that the iPhone 5s uses 1 amp and the iPad 2 uses 2 amps, and from what I read, you can use the iPad charger to charge the iPhone (which I didn't know there were conflicts about this, I've always used my iPad charger for my phone). There are a lot of articles with people going back and forth about charging techniques, but I want to make sure I'm not going to damage any of my devices if I plug it into the wrong port.
    Any responses will be appreciated as this isn't an area where I am very knowledgeable! Thank you!!!

    The iPhone and iPad draw whatever charging current they require. The iPad draws more.

  • Pavilion zd7000 starts in battery mode only; runs on AC only when connected to printer by USB port

    My Pavilion zd 7379ea will only start up in battery mode. AC adapter appears OK with a firm green LED, so external power supply may not be the issue here? When I'm starting up (with what's left on the battery), both the charging LED and the AC LED are constantly blinking. When turned off, the battery LED is firm, and battery appears to be charging (but which obviously is not the case).  Occasionally, when computer is turned off, the AC LED is lit with a firm light.
    One odd thing I noted before this happened was that the computer ran on AC only when my HP printer was connected to one of the USB ports (no battery inserted). If I disconnected the printer USB cord, the computer just died immediately; it was like the computer was powered by the printer. Later I also discovered that the same cord (where it connected to the printer) had melted from extreme overheating. I tried to update the USB drivers for each port but it didn't change things. I also tried to connect a different printer to get the computer started but it didn't work this time. I'd be extremely grateful for any comments that may solve this power supply issue (and if possible explain the stuff with the printer connection).

    You unplugged a USB device while the notebook was still booted into Windows and on? 
    Normally that won't cause any issues but , If you did that you may have damaged your  system board's Southport chip.
    USB is not a plug n' play port like SATA  and eSATA are.
    Here is a link to the maintenence manual for your laptop series.
    Is your notebook still within warranty? By the processor components listed in the manual,I believe it is probably not.

  • Why does N97 charge from some USB port and some no...

    OK some seem to have same sort of troubles but I couldn't find an answer to this one...
    So I have a N97 that charges OK when I plug it in computers USB port or in a (powered) hub.
    But I also have a USB power adapter that I can plug in a wall socket and it has one USB port (5V/1A) and nothing happens.
    Same happens when I plug it in my car using a USB adapter (not a actual car charger for N97).
    Since every other phone/MP3-player/device that can be charged via USB works with these, I have to asume that this is something with my phone...
    Has anyone else faced this and have found any solutions?

    OK I have some additional info to this one.
    I made some experiments with different chargers and cabels and here is the most interesting result (in my oppinion)...
    In both cases I used my N97 and the USB power adapter (with 5V/1000mA output).
    Only difference was how I connected the two...
    By using the data cabel (Nokia CA-101) that came with the phone and nothing it DOES NOT charge the phone.
     (and yes it is working cable, since I use it to sync my phone with my PC and it does charge the phone via PCs USB).
    By using USB->2mm plug adapter (Nokia CA-100) and the 2mm plug->micro-USB adapter (CA-146C) it DOES charge the phone.
    Since CA-100 converts USB to more simple connector then there must be something more happening inside CA-146C than just relaying those wires forward...
    Any ideas???

  • Mobile phone not being recognised via USB port

    A few days ago I plugged my Motorola V3x phone into a USB port to download some pictures and was presented with some Windows to fill out some information. As I could not complete the operation at that time I closed the windows to retry at a later date. But now when I plug the phone into the USB port it is not recognised and there is on icon appearing on the desktop indicating that a USB has been plugged in. If I plug other devices into the USB ports they are recognised. Any ideas?

    For the phone to appear on the desktop when plugged in via USB you need to use USB Mass Storage mode (or whatever Nokia call it) not Media Transfer.
    For iSync you need to download the E71 iSync Plugin from the Nokia web-site:

  • Nokia 6120 Classic USB Modem is not working proper...

    Hello everybody!
    Something strange happened last week with my Nokia 6120 Classic (version: 03.83). I regularly use it as a USB modem and last week's Wednesday it stopped working. What the problem really is due to, is hard for me to say precisely.
    Using Windows Vista (Business, x64, SP1) "Connect to" function, I have previously connected to using HSDPA, but after last week the following happens:
    Starts with "Dialing" then goes to showing status "Verifying user name and password" for less than a second after which Vista informs that "Failed to connect to..." and the phone shows the 3G symbol with dashed arrows below.
    I've tried the following:
    - reinstalling PC Suite (the latest, greatest version)
    - reinstalling the modem drivers (between Nokia USB modem and 6120 USB modem) using the whole reboot thing
    - using another USB port, which doesn't work since Device Manager reports that the driver can't start properly
    - restarting, cold resetting the phone
    - switching to GSM only
    - testing with another computer running SP1
    - removing modem init commands for the Internet connection
    Now, the strange thing with the second computer was that everything worked just fine with it. My computer on the other hand didn't work at all!
    I've put the modem communication logs from the working computer here:
    http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ah8pw9pjrf55_12g38wqpdt
    And the modem communication logs from my non-working computer here:
    http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=ah8pw9pjrf55_11hjcq39g4
    What was interesting on my computer is the "NO CARRIER" line which makes no sense to me: why on earth is it starting to check for a carrier signal all of the sudden??
    Any tips with this here dilemma would be greatly appreciated.
    Message Edited by manywhere on 18-Feb-2008 09:47 AM

    I tried using a Nokia E90 and connecting to the net using both PC Suite's "Connect to the Internet" and using Windows´ "Connect to" programs. With the E90, I had the same problems: fails at "Verifying user name and password" and the strange looking modem communications log.
    What the heck is going on with my Windows installation here? I tried removing the drivers again, repairing PC suite and restarting the computer, but to no avail.

  • Installation of Nokia Cable Driver (USB) fails und...

    I am running Windows Vista Home Premium, SP2. I have installed Nokia PC Suite 7.1.30.8, and I want to connect a Nokia E65 via USB cable CA-53.
    The installation of the software works well except the installation of the cable driver. I do always get an error message "Error when loading nsesetup.dll - nsesetup.dll is not a valid Win32 application":
    During the installation of PC-Suite (however continous and finishes;
    When trying to de-install the existing "Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver (2,91 MB)" - I have no idea where this entry comes from, whether it's an older installation or newly created -, de-installation fails also;
    When trying to install the separately downloaded Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver software.
    When I am trying to connect my E65 via USB afterwards (ignoring the error messgaes during installation), Vista is searching for drivers. I'll then get an error message "Have found drivers, but there is an error during installation: Nokia E65 USB Phone Parent - Driver is not intended for this platform."
    Note: I have rebooted the PC after installation.
    Looking in the device driver list, I have an unknown device at "Port_#0001.Hub_#0002" and the error message "Driver not installed for this device (Code 28) - Driver not intended for this platform." Driver details are "C:\Windows\System32\Drivers\ccdcmb.sys, C:\Windows\System32\nmwcdcocls.dll and C:\Windows\System32\wdfcoinstaller01007.dll". I have then tried to re-install drivers being in the device driver window and choosen "from local PC". I have specified the Programs/Nokia directory, where are both PC-Suite and Cable Driver subdirectries. I'll then get the same error message "Have found drivers, but there is an error during installation: Nokia E65 USB Phone Parent - Driver is not intended for this platform."
    I am giving up now - can't de-install the shown driver in "Programs & Functions" due to this nsesetup.dll error message, I can't install the new drivers, neither from PC-Suite or directly. Grateful if somebody knows a solution.
    Note: I am running german versions, that's why I've translated the error messages - might not be 100% identical with the original english error messages. Thanks for any reply in advance, Frank

    Hi,I did everything you've recommended, but with the same result. No connection possible because no driver can be installed. In detail:
    De-installed every Nokia Software and also ran PC Suite Cleaner from Nokia, got "successful" messages;
    Unfortunately I still can't can't de-install the shown driver in "Programs & Functions" due to the mentioned nsesetup.dll error message (RunDLL: "Error when loading nsesetup.dll - nsesetup.dll is not a valid Win32 application").
    Then I did the same as described initially, installed PC-Suite latest version (and got the driver error) and rebooted - this time did not install Cable Driver separatelybecause they're included in PC-Suite -, connected my E65 to another USB port (now at the rear side of my PC) and Windows driver installation failed. No phone is recognized when starting PC-Suite.
    I have attached the PC Suite Cleaner log file.
    Regards, Frank
