Ok so I should first state that these issues never occured before I dropped my phone (about a distance of 2 feet at the very most onto a wooden floor, developed a slight crack on the screen) however I don't believe that alone should justify this issue, I last had the EVO through sprint and switched to Verizon a little over a month ago because they were the first to get 4G in my city.
So what is happening now is only whenever I plug the phone in, regardless of whether wall or PC. Right when I plug it in when the phone is off the strobe flash lights up, sometimes it decides to start up on it's own without me turning it on myself. Also while it's plugged in and I try to go horizontal screen view 1 of 3 things will happen, the phone does the strobe flash and reboots, the phone will simply stop charging until I plug it back in or the battery indicator goes grey with an '!' mark over it.
Also my computer is not recognizing the device at all, and my phone doesn't give me any connectivity options (charge only, sync, disk drive, hotspot etc)
Lastly, this could just be Verizon's fault, but I find myself in 1x more than usual, takes a lot of rebooting, airplane mode on/of & toggling with LTE/CDMA to get my 4g back when this happens... I have also already tried the ##778# command > edit > 000000 pw > modem settings > rev a enabled but 1x still came back on later. Right now 4g has been on for the last couple hours so hopefully it was just the network but *shrug*
I'm just really frustrated and I feel there's no way all of this should occur from such a slight drop. I can't even recall the ammount of times I dropped my EVO with ZERO technical issues...anyone know whats going on?? Can any of this be reversed on my own?? I didn't get the insurance and I don't want to fork over the cash for a Razr or Nexus yet.
