[SOLVED] USB Sync/charge cable confused by phone with a TV OUT??

---

Hello,

Recently, whenever I plug my HTC Fuse into my laptop, the "Video Out" selection screen will appear on the phone and the display will turn into landscape. Opening/closing the keyboard with or without the USB cable removed will not change it back to portrait .. the only way is to go into settings and change it back, or soft reset the phone.

I also rebooted the PC , and the phone .. the problem still occurs. Any idea why my USB cable is being confused as a TV OUT? It didnt happen all the time with this cable, it is a new problem. It is really frustrating to have teo switch back to portriat after plugging my phone in , every time.

I will try another cable on Monday, I have to fetch my other one from work. Maybe the pins are somehow crossed? It does sync and charge perfectly fine. Also, I am using an older Energy ROM, and I will upgrade soon but dont have the time right now. I am hoping this is just a software issue and not hardware.

Any insight would be greatly appreciated. (I wasn't able to find any threads that discuss this problem in my searching.)

welll ...thanks for all your help guys

Anyway I was able to determine it was just the cable, as another cable worked fine. Did some research which indicates you have to remove a pin from a USB cable in order for the phone to recongize it as a TV out .. so I cleaned all the pins in the USB cable I have, very carefully .. and now it is no longer prompting as a video cable.



Now I am upgrading my rom
