Dell Streak 5 Not Charging/Not Being Recognized At All.

[Guest Kitasm]

Long time lurker here, but something odd happened last night when tinkering why my Streak.

I had connected my Streak to my computer through the USB cable and started swapping some files. Once I was finished with what I needed to do, I just unplugged my Streak without disabling USB storage through the Streak or anything close to that. Ever since I pulled that magical trick, my Streak will NOT charge, nor is recognized on my computer when plugged in. It doesn't even hint that it exists. I was thinking the issue was the cable, but it charged another Streak I had. What can be the issue. USB debugging didn't work, fastboot and all that other good stuff will not do the trick. I thought maybe a factory restore might do the trick, but to no avail.

Has anyone run into such a problem before? Can it be alleviated?

Try taking out the battery, then put the case back on and then turn it on while plugged in your pc.

My Streak 5 battery is not charging as well after 3 weeks & i read from other forum stating that USB-PC will not charge if battery is flat. Any one has the same problem?

It works after trying above method. :) Thanks Emmannuelsdd!!!
