Sounds like a blown fuse on the motherboard, do a search on this forum for details of repair procedure.

If you, like myself, are not as technically advanced as some others, and you haven't had the phone long, send it back to whomever the manufacturer was and they will likely fix it. I bought an Siemens SX56 from ebay a couple of months ago and had the exact same problem, told me to do a hard reset first, that did nothing, then I sent it in to get fixed, apparently it was easier and cheaper for them to just send me a new unit because in about a week and half, I had one at my door. Of course, the unit I sent in was unlocked, as I use cingular and the Siemens is an ATT phone, but the new unit was locked to ATT, that's how I found this site, I had it unlocked in 5 minutes. Anyway, if you have had the phone less than 60 days, I would send it in and get it fixed.

Dear h0t_Sh0t, I have few advices that might help..
1- Check if your device has International warrenty.
2- Check is the connector socket is loose from inside or not well connected, this is where the little thing goes inside the imate to connect. Mine got loose one month ago, and then was almost broke, then did not charge or make Sunc, I got it to be repaired at almost US $ 65.
Hope this helps.

i'm very sorry, but my english is not so good,
I don't really get the first advice..... (i'm very sorry, maybe a dutch guy can translate it for me(or i'll ask my brother tonight))or can someone explain it a little bit...
and do you mean by your second advice or my XDA is well connected to the cradle???(cause i can sync it with the computer, but he isn't recarging)
I'll mail some peeps who might know something to....
thnx for your help
