I've got a weird problem that I've never seen before. To start off, I've got a rooted/unlocked Sensation running CM7 alpha6.

I've got 2 USB charge cables that I plug into my PC to charge my phone, one is an old cable from my Nexus One, and the other is the new cable that came with my Sensation. I've never had any problems with charging via PC using the Nexus One cable.

Now a few days ago I plugged my phone into my XBox 360 using one of my USB cables to listen to music. When I plugged my phone in that night to my PC, the next morning it had only gained a couple % after 10 hours or so. So I was like WTF, maybe the cable went bad or got some corrosion on it, so I started using the factory cable that came with the phone.

Fast forward to last night, I plugged my phone into my XBox again, and guess what? I'm having the same no-charge problem with the HTC cable! The only thing I can think of is that the XBox installs some driver that causes the cable to become incompatible. But the weird thing is that both cables can still be used for data transfer, with normal speeds, they just won't charge properly.

Anyone else seen this problem?
