For the past month or so, I have been having issues with my Epic. I frist noticed my car charger that had been working for the past year or so, kept causing the phone to propt for usb charging, mass storage, etc.
I thought that maybe my car chager was going bad and not putting enough amperage out, making the phone think that I was plugged into a USB port. I bought a new car charger and had the same issues.
I know 100% that the phone was fine before, but now I cannot really use it for navigation because the battery drains very fast using GPS and data when only being charged in USB mode.
A few weeks later I noticed similiar behavior with a wall plug that I have also been using for a while. I have not changed the cables or in either my wall outlet or car charger, but suddenly the phone does not seem to be able to determine what kind of power it is receiving.
It still does charge with my OEM wall charger that came with the phone, and one other charger (palm pre).
What I don't understand is how it suddenly stopped working with these chargers.
I am not rooted (I have been in the past). I am just using the stock build, no apps managing power or battery either.
Any one else having these issues, or have any advice.
Thanks
