Hi,
I have the charger port broken on my nokia n900, I gave it to a local repair shop and he spoilt the data tracks as he said. Then he told he has used some jumpers and brought my phone to a working state. The problem now is that, When I connect the USB cable from pc, it recognises and charges and also can do data transfer. But now if i unplug (safely and unsafely) from pc, i see the charging indicator on screen and Led on the phone shows charging for about 15, 20 min and stops, then connect to a charger, it does not recognise it. It does not recognise even if i connect in between those 15,20 min. If I switch the phone off and then on and charge it using wall charger it charges, but this time, the charging indicator remains on for ever and now if i connect to my computer, pc does not recognise the phone. Hence again I need to turn the phone off and on and then the pc recognises.
Hence once the phone is on i can either charge using wall charger or charge and transfer data using usb on pc.
Also when i put the battery in, the Phone boots for a second, 'nokia' comes up and switches off. Then i can power it on.
Please tell me what might have gone wrong.
