Yea as he mentioned...
I'm going to assume (since you posted here) the 9100 is a variation of the Wizard. In my MDA manual (and learned by testing) a dead Wizard will only get a charge from the wall charger. It will not charge via USB unless it still has some power. Use the charger that came with the phone (not the sync cable). You should notice the charge light come on instantly. The phone can be put on the Sync cable to charge arfter being on the wall cord for like 5 or 10 minutes to finish charging if you want.

there is a topic here somewere.in how to charge a dead wizard from a 9v battterie or from a hacked usb cable.

XDA Mini S + USB Charging

Not sure if this is right part of forum, but here it goes.
I am having an issue with the charging of my O2 XDA Mini.
If my battery dies, with still a small bit of power left in it (enough to get splash screen) and I go to charge it works fine no problem. Now over the wkend my phone died on my and I left it till this afternoon when I tried to turn on, it wouldnt turn on at all (not even splash) because obviously the battery is completely dead. Now when I go to plug it in, it wont charge, from USB cradle, the little orange light to say that its charging doesnt even come on.
Last time this happened I eventually got it to work via a friends socket (plug) charger, rather than USB, charger. Is there any reason for this or anyway that it can be fixed that even when the battery is completely dead I can charge it from my USB cradle.
Any help would be apreciated.
Thank you in advance

Sorry to bump this, but does anyone have any idea. I beleve the cause of this is due to the fact the USB power from the PC isnt enough to get the charging process started, is there anyway to get this done via the cradle.
Thanks
Rattlehead

You'll need to use a charger that plugs into a wall socket I'm afraid. This happened to me once & that was the only way I could get it to work. If you search on Google, you'll find methods that involve a stripped down usb cable, but a wall charger is definately easier.
Good luck.

Should any usb based wall charger work?
I have a Motorolla one and Ive tried that but that didnt work.
I know for a fact that when I use my friends one it works and will charge, but he aint round for another 2 weeks

You cannot charge a totally flat battery through usb cable using PC,cuz it only supplies 0.5(500)amp,whereas to get the dead battery back into charging,it requires a supply charge of 1.0(1000)amp,secondly you can only charge the phone via usb if it's working normal and not when it's dead,as you cannot boot into OS.
Therefore,it'll only start to charge with a 'Wall Charger' which only supplies 1.0 amp,your friend's Wall (Mains) charger must be suppling a 1.0 amp charge.You cannot even charge it with the Motorola usb charger cuz it also supplies only 0.5 amp.So try to get a Wall (Mains) charger to get it start charging.
OR,
Yes! you can Jump start the battery using Motorola charger,but you'll have to sacrifice the motorola charger to do it,as you'll have to cut off the usb plug of the charger cable end and attach the 'Red' wire to the '+' (Possitive) connector of the battery and black wire to the '-' (Negative) connector of the battery and give Shock Charge to the battery for 10 seconds,repeat this for 4/5 times,it'll give the battery a jump start and will increase the 'Pulse' level of the battery,after that put it in the phone and check if it loads up,if it does then you can charge it via usb cable connected with PC.
Good luck
BTW ! there's an excellent thread regarding charging to avoide the battery to go flat and saving from getting into this situation,it wud be very info for you,check it also :-

zabardast_1 ,
You are the Guru ~

sorry couldnt reply to you before now, zabardast_1 thank you so much.
Thats great will have a look tonight and see what I can do

Here is a simple way of solving the problem, go and buy a charger, they cost next to nothing.

My Universal won't charge from the AC USB recharger - only from my comp's USB port!

Greetings,
2 weeks ago I bought used Qtek 9000 and since I didn't have any problems until I had tried to recharge it by regular AC USB recharger from the wall outlet.
I'm stuck to my PC every day so I didn't have a need to recharge it that way, when I connect it to my comp recharging works fine.
I thought that maybe that recharger was broken so I had bought new one but still I cannot recharge my phone from the wall.
I tried 4 different USB cables (every single one works fine between HTC & PC but with chargers - no go) and a few different outlets in my home but none of it work.
The ROM is Ranju v7.1 if that matters but I really don't know what to try else.
If someone knows what should I try next please suggest, I appreciate it very much.
Cheers.

Maybe your charger is broken. In fact, almost certain, since you can link up to your PC, so it can't be the port, nor the datacable. This means that it must be the charger.
Try measuring the voltage on the power cable's end, and if it shows nil, you got your culprit!

It can also be, that your USB-charger does not provide enough power to charge your Universal.
You should not simply take ANY USB-charger (i.e. from an mp3 player). Try to use one with at least 1A.
Cheers,
vma

Thanks for your replies,
I have two USB rechargers, the first I got with a device, (the guy told me that was the original but obviously he screwed me) that has 500mA only,
the second one I had bought myself is weaker, only 400mA.
I'll look for the 1A USB recharger, now.
Cheers.

lol i just found this out last night. its good to know tho that it need to be 1 amp. chears.

I had the same problem & found that one for a Motorola W375 mobile phone worked fine so, as said above, it is probably the charger

[Q]Defy Charging Problem

Hi I've got a problem with my phone. If I connect it to the PC using orginal USB cable it charging, transfering data and so. But if I connect the phone to the wall charger it don't charge only screen wake up but no charging on battery icon. The wall charger is orginal too. I've tried changing ROMs.
This problem is really anoying so if You can, please help me.

You write you use the original charger, but do you also use the original USB cable? It matters, cheap USB cables do not work on the Defy :-(

seems some problem in wall socket adaptor

Got to check that out, cause I've been wondering why I can charge my Defy+ in some wall chargers, some computers, and so far no car chargers. Would be great if the cables are the cause. Thanks

I use the orginal usb cable too

There's nothing wrong with your phone, ROM, or USB cable, but your wall charger is broken.
Just get your charger replaced. That's what warranties are for.
The Defy doesn't really care about USB cables. If it's switched off it will charge anyway, so the ROM doesn't matter either. But it's very picky about the current and voltage stability of the charger. That's why many 3rd party chargers don't work no matter what cable you plug into it.

I was in non-official phones service and they check charging on another adaptors but i think they were not original. Anyway as i remember when lastly phone was charging it was a storm and on the next day it wasn't working but i'm not sure.

I know this thread is old but i didn't find solution to this problem, soooo:
The answer is = turn off debugging over USB

What's debugging got to do with wall charger??
Doesn't matter from where I send it, what matters is written above

So why when I turn it on i have problems with charging?
Bug?

if u use External charger u must charge ur phone with mcgyver for 10 min.
after that use the External charger.
becaz ur battery so low.

Charging Issue
I got the same problem from the day i bought the mobile... The service center people told its charger issue and need to replace the charger. So Changed the wall charger under warranty. It took around 2 months to get my charger back. But the things are same. It sometime charge. Sometimes the screen will on and didnt charge. I tried changing different Versions. Same thing. Even the service center people have no idea about it....

Could you check if the micro-usb connector of the phone or that of the cable is clean, dirt and dust reduces or prevents transfer rate of electricity.

Phone stops charging after Oreo Update. (On my second phone right now)

First of all I'm very sorry for posting on a developer Forum, I had lurked here for about a month looking for an answer and I can't find it. I wouldn't had made an account otherwise.
Here's my problem, my phone randomly stops charging (not notice neither) since the Oreo Update. I believe is because of the update because I return my old phone and bought a second phone and decided to leave it on Nougat, I decided to update it to Oreo because I missed notification badges and the day after I already had the same problem.
Things of Notice:
*Both phones where new and on the latest security patch.
*My phone does charge overnight when in wall socket but will stop charging when I used the USB on my car (my car has a USB adapter but if I charge it there, it will keep READING USB and repeating the cycle)
*Phone also stops charging when I use an extended battery. (I'm an avid Pokemon Go Player)
*Restating the phone a couple of times, fixes the issue.
Is there anything that I can do? everything else about the phone works perfectly (Facebook takes a long time to load but that's it). If there's an answer already please forward me to that post. Thanks again

Could it be because the update enabled quick charge, so now the phone requires a bigger energy output from the USB?

Does changing the cable help? If not, try doing a factory reset.

Since this is my first phone with USB type C I only have the one cable. I had notice the battery backup is charging so it seems like a problem with the car charger but I need to test it first. What charging output do I need to charge a modern phone like this?

Anywhere from 0.5A (laptop USB port) to 2.5A (tablet charger) should work. Can you test charging from a computer?

I'm sorry I answer this late, I was unable to log into the site from my phone. (forgot the pasword). I did some testing in the weekend and it did charge on my laptop, it charge extremely slow., Just 3% in like an hour. (with constant use).
I kept using it with my power bank it kept charging reliably as well as in my house. But it keeps having the some problem at the car, So here's what I'm wondering. If I use one of those 3.0 USB car chargers will it charge my phone? without a problem to my car? I don't know if this phone supports fast charging (the specs says yes but I never seen the fast charging message with the regular charging)

No worries. Yes, laptop charging is slow.
I'm not sure if the stock ROM supports fast charging but custom ones do, and it can't harm your device. I don't see why it would harm your car if it was made for it. Maybe your car's USB port broke.

I see, I'll buy one of those quick charge car chargers and if everything goes alright I'm keeping the phone. I really like the look and camera and my only annoyances with it come from Stock Android.

Alright, good luck with the new charger.

Update: New charger works perfectly, I'll keep the phone. Thanks a lot man.

Thanks for posting your problem and the answer!
I have had the same reaction on one of my phones after updating to oreo.
Changing the charger from a 1A model to a 2,4A model solved the issue.
