hi,
i just got a new XDA 2 from o2, when i switched it on, it said "backup battery low" and shows me 25%.
Does it recharge by itself, or do i have to replace it? and how or where?
thanks.
I had this on a number of XDA II I got recently for work.
The backup battery on some of them was completely flat but I put them on charge and left them and at some point the backup battery started charging.
I am not sure if the main battery needs to be 100% before the backup starts charging but they are all charged now.
thanks for the prompt reply.
It already started to charge...

Hello,
My backup battery did not recharge any more. Now, I can not even turn it on (the main battery is fully charged). In my area, there is no replacement.
So, what should I do now to make it work again?
Thanks
your post is a llittle tricky.. how did you know that the backup battery did not charge? and the main battery is full? when you can't even turn your XDA on?
have you tried to hard reset your phone? it might just be a software problem..
I had a trip for 2 days without my xda, and when I came back, I could not turn it on, I guessed that the battery is empty. So, I put it on the cradle, nothing happened. I noticed there were a socket on the cradle to put the second battery. I removed the main battery and put the main battery on the cradle. The led showed in red indicating the main battery were charging. And I put my xda on the cradle again, the red led showed too. After a while, I noticed the led changed from red to blue. It indicated that the main battery is full. I got the main battery out of the cradle. But my xda still in red. I tried for several time, nothing changed. And I put the main battery into my xda. It turned on. And there were a message saying "The backup battery is extremely low, please change or recharge as in the manual". I ran the battery application, it said that the main battery were 100% and the backup battery were 0%. The software started to install like to make a hard-reset. When it finished installing. It were soft-reset automaticely as usual. But the backlight of screen is turn off, and the picture look dummy. That ware exactly the time I can not turn my xda on anymore.
Now, there is something so strange with my xda. When I put it on the cradle without the main battery, the led lights in red in about 20 minutes and then turn off automaticly. But when I put it with the main battery, nothing happen.
I did try for hundred of times, but nothing changed. I guess that my xda is dead.
So sad.....
Maybe your XDA has a problem in its charge pins.
You should let it checked by someone.
I had the same problem as you before, but I exchanged that XDA with the new one :roll:
did you actually hard reset your phone yet? something like this happened to me two nights ago.. my phone went low on batt so i charged it and it was ok then so i turned it off so that it could charge better.. when i came back to check, i cant turn it on anymore so i disconnected it from the charger.. i took off the battery and placed it back.. but my phone didnt respond anyway.. no lights no nothing! my last resort was to HARD RESET my phone.. by placing back the battery and holding the power button while i press the reset button with the stylus.. and voila it's up again..
thanks for everyone, I did find out the problem, that is the backup battery,
I openned my xda and remove the backup battery, It works just like before. I also experience that If the backup battery is dead then we must remove or change the new one then the phone will work. It will not boot or charge with the dead one inside.
Why take out the battery and charge it separately ?
Just put the battery back to xdaII and place the xdaII in the cradle and charge it together. :roll:
im very sorry for my late reply.. if only you recieved it earlier you didnt have to open your XDA and void your warranty.. but it's good that it's ok now!
same here
i have exactly the same problem with my backup battery...i just got my xda 2i today and I tried to charge it up the main battery quickly went up to 100% but the backup battery has stuck into 75% and after a while the orange light become green as if it has charged. It takes either a soft reset or I need to disconnect (either from cable or cradle) and connect again in order to become orange and probably to start charging again...
what's wrong with the damn thing?

Good day,
I own a Orange M1000 now for 4 months, (Qtek 2020)
3 weeks ago I installned the Sin Merged v2.0 rom.
No problems, everything went ok and smooth.
Yesterday when I got home I have put my phone on my desk.
When I tried to start it this morning, nothing, it won't go on.
I browsed through the forums and tried a lot.
With no result .
(Hard reset won't work, can't get into bootloader, leaving SIM and battery out for a hour, charging the device with the adaptor).
The only thing I get from the device is a red light when I put in charger without the battery in the device.
I really don't know what to do now, any help would be appreciated!
*frustrated at the moment*
I don't want to be annoying, but isn't there any one who could help me?
I really need my phone for my work and school and I have no replacement at the moment.
Really, any help at all would be very, very appreciated!
I have the same problem today, all I can do is sending back to repair
Sorry, I may be stupid but it wasnt clear to me if you charged the battery in the cradle, ie battery on charge without phone.
Take the battery out, leave the phone on the desk and pop the battery only in charger. Wait 2 hours or so (minimum), now put battery in XDA and soft reset.
That worked on mine when it went mental like this.
thanks for your reply .
I just try and seem you are right.
the backup battery all gone and I charge the o2 without battery for an hour and the backup battery for 50% charged.
Is that the only way to charge the backup battery ?
It seems the backup batter takes its charge from the main battery. So if you have a totally flat backup battery (a non removeable one inside XDA) and put a fully charged main battery in, with no charger connected you will see the backup battery slowly charge itself from empty to full from the main battery.
This seems to prevent charging when the main battery is totally dead.
The only way to get it running again is to remove the main battery and charge it outside the XDA.
This is at least what happens on my XDA, so forgive me if its different for anyone else.
Thank you for your replies,
So it worked for you allen?
My problem is, I didn't get a cradle with my phone, and I can't get ik spare here at stores.
Sending back for reparation isn't an option.
I didn;'t have a lot of moeny and I bought it second hand. (still in box though..)
Any suggestions on where to buy a cradle?
Hello Guys..
I have some problems with my XDA Mini, first think it was battery issues.
It was 1 year i never use my XDA Mini and no battery power.
3 days ago, i recharge my XDA for 8 hours. While charge the battery, i turn it on, see the battery status was 80% for main and 0% for backup battery.
When the Battery status was 100% for main and backup battery, then i unplug the charger and use it.
The problem coming up.. when it rings about 30 second or take photo it will self powered off or restarted. Sometime i can not use Power Switch to switch it On. To switch on it must plug in the charger again then push the Power Switch. When it happened I see the battery status was 80% for main and 40% for backup (it has been standby for 1 and half day).
Today the ROM was upgraded to 2.03 TX and the problem still remains. I try to use my friend 's Magician battery and it still happen. And weird, my friend's Magician then have the same problem too when he use my battery.
I think my battery and other internal circuit have some problems.
If you guys have same problem, please share with me.
Your Battery is dead. Buy a new.

Only the battery? I'm not sure. It may the Recharger IC or other components.
Any other suggestion?

I had this. It was not the battery. I replaced it. Wiped battery stats. When you charge does it keep stopping charging?

I have a similar problem
My battery was getting bad for a while, so I bought a new one off Amazon USA (I hope it's real). However since I put the new battery in my phone and switched to CyanMobile, my battery has been all over the place.
I can't get through a 9 hour work shift on 2G speeds (where I may glance at my phone 2 or 3 times). As well as the battery running down quickly, it'll jump from say 80% to 60% or 50% to 30%.
It does this both when charging and discharging. i.e. the phone just died. I plug it in to charge whilst switched off, and the screen immediately shows 20% charge. I turn it on whilst plugged in, and by the time it boots up it shows 60%!
I've tried deleting battery stats in recovery mode, and using a battery calibration app from the market...but nothing
What to do?
Hey XDA I have already contacted a seller for a new battery my phone recently would shut down at 20% battery sometimes 50%, TWRP has a reset battery option inside it, would this fix anything or make it worse? Just looking for suggestions.
I was also charging my phone all night and I was sure the cable was plugged in and it shows that it was discharging all night any idea what could be happening?
the "reset" feature just resets the battery statistics, nothing more. Try using a different cable/power supply to rule that out.
