This is crazy. I made a few calls before I slept and my battery was at 40% level. When I woke up and saw my phone wouldnt come out from standby mode. I saw none of the lights on my phone were blinking. I assumed that the phone shut down by itself. I pushed the power button it started and in 3 seconds it shut down by itself. I assumed that its battery is dead so I connected it to my computer but I did not see any orange charging light. So I connected it to the wall charger. This is really shocking I saw a red indicator light it stayed there for 2 seconds and went away. I am really scared my phone is not starting please help !!!
...same issue here! -> solved!
Hi! I own a XDA Neo for one week now and this morning this happened to me: I did set an alarm the evening before to wake me up, battery was at 82%, so I did not connect the device to external power. I woke up in time, but not by the alarm. Instead the XDA was off and when I presses the 'on' button it did a soft reset... The reset reached the Windows screen (after the provider logo screen) and the alarm went on. I disabled the alarm and the XDA froze. I did two more soft resets, both with the same result. When I tried to 'reanimate' the device the fourth time, nothing happened at all. No soft reset, no hard reset, no boot loader, no indicator LED when connecting it to the charger
I removed the battery, the SD and the SIM and tried several times to reset the damn thing - no fu..... way! Does anyone know the 'magic trick' or should I send the device in for exchange/repair (it's one week old!)???
Thanks for helping a newbie :wink:
EDIT
I don't believe it, the battery was simply discharged completely! From 82% at 10pm the evening before to 0% at 7am the next morning. With BT and WiFi off, excellent signal from provider, no other progs running in the background and screen shut off as well... What a crappy little piece of sh..! Guess I have to get a more powerfull one from Ebay.
Same problem here, damn it!

How did you figure out that the battery discharged completely?
My XDA Neo was fine this morning with 22% battery and just after lunch (without using it) it stopped working! And it's one week old!!
I have the same thing, have no idea what to do!
First time it happened i exchanged my device, but the problem was still there and i thought the battery were dead. i bought the new one- and it work!!! But now it happened again!!

Hi,
I am an owner of a HTC Touch 3g bought very recently. The device is in excellent condition and I did not have any trouble with it so far.
However, today when I was pressing the power button to deactivate the screen the reaction of the device was lagged by 4-5 sec. At some time I decided to reboot the device to solve the problem but since then...the device is DEAD, which means that does not start nor when I charge it reacts (light does not turn on).
Tried to have a hard reset but nothing happened.
Any ideas?????
remove the battery and any card(sim...µsd), then press the power button for a couple of seconds. reinsert the battery and connect to the charger, leave it there for a while.
i've had a similar issue with my walkman, when the battery was drained, and i mean REALLY drained, nothing would happen, not even when plugging into the charger. i had to wait about 10-15 minutes until the device showed life again
Tried that but didnt work.
The battery is charged, I charged it fully yesterday 4-5 hours before the incident.
Any new ideas? Thanks anyway...
Send it back where you bought it of course. What else?
Greetings from Portugal!
Same thing happened with my touch 3g, out of nowhere it hanged up this morning and when trying to turn it on again it quickly turned off by itself, and again on almost immediatly, this went on forever! Tried a hard reset and left the battery out for a few hours, but no results... oh well, back to the store and let's see what they say.
Just went last night back to the store, lucky for me they changed it for a brand new one instead of sending it to HTC Portugal for reparation (here in Portugal we have a 30 days return/exchange product policy in case of malfunction).
Best regards
reset button
have you tryed pressing the reset button located by where the memory card gose in ????
Has anyone ever had an issue where by their battery life is at say 59% and when i plug it in to charge rather than the blue charging icon appearing it just showing the battery being 100% and the LED doing successive double flashing as opposed to a static LED like i should be if it was charging?
I've not installed anything, flashed a new rom etc, was fine yesterday.
All i did was have a little play with CHTEditor.
somethings not right, it must be something to do with me messing about with CHTEditor
out of the blue my lock screen had gone, and it says i have a voice mail waiting when i dont. haha
Hard reset i think
update...
hard reset not worked...uhoh
Same problem here
I was in a phone call an al of a sudden everything just went black and rebooted. Turns out the phone stopped charging and flasing green and red. Battery ran out of power and the phone shut down. After the reboot the phone charged normally again
Another situation:
Phone started acting up again and endend in a reboot. Battery was empty and i made a phone call on the charger. during the phonecall the same problem happend again, but the battery was at 9%. I intended to unplug the charger and plug it back in, but after the unplug the battery jumped to 0% and shut down.
So, i think the battery is acting up. Having to charge the thing every damn day is finally taking it's toll.

yep, using the original battery, it seems to be ok now, charging as it should.
ahh well. cheers for the reply
one last this, how the hell to i get the lock screen back, i think im being dim.
edit
sorted
I have a program BsB Tweaks that has a setting for the lockscreen. Try that.
My phone is also charging fine when turned off, also it functions fine at the moment. i think it has something to do with overloading the device when the battery is low. Based on that its not possible to turn on any phone when the battery is in attached but the power is, i think everything is drained from the battery while charging it and that when overloading the battery just doesn't pull it anymore.
i don't have a alternative battery, mine is original.
What are the symtoms when the battery is at the end of it's life? does it do this, or is it supposed to give a warning or something?
edit: i am unable to find a manual page describing the different modes the LED could be blinking. I'm curious what is says about the red and green blinking mode. Does such a page exist?
So last night at kickball, I sent a text to my wife. The next game, I wanted to see if she texted back, and my phone was off. I didn't remember the battery being low, but thought that perhaps it might have been. When I got home I plugged it in and got nothing. I tried to do the Power/Camera/Reset to see if it would go into bootloader; again nothing. I left the battery out all night, put it back in this morning, still nothing. I've tried usb charging and wall charging as well, with and without the battery. Nothing turns it on... is it done for?
Same thing happened to mine recently. I know the battery was low, and it turned off because of that. Never got it to turn on again.
The only sign of life mine shows is that the red led will turn on if you have it plugged into a charge with the battery out. Other than that, it's a paperweight.
Never got mine working again.
I took mine apart, and somehow got it to turn on again... it was a messy process.. something must be shorted out. Going to have to get something new soon.
i have just the same issue with moto milestone ... i am sure that the battery is fully charged, cause ive charged it with another milestone ... but that one simply won't turn on ... tried different combinations of sd/simcard/battery on and off .. still the same ... Any help would be highly appreciated.
same issue here, mine just stopped working yesterday, battery was fine, i did a soft reset randomly, and then it wouldn't turn back on. Both the talk and end lights are on, that's it..
Mine does the same thing since it was dropped in water. It had'nt been turned on for 2 years since I decided it would work! It still does the red light thing sometimes, but all I got to do is remove battery, try power button and repeat the process until it works. Try it out!
Hey All,
Im runing KE2 rooted, ive noticed 3 times now going to use my phone and the screen is blank, non of the buttons do anything even holding the power button.
Only way to get it going again is to take the battery out and back in and power up the phone.
Am I alone? Ive seen posts about overheating etc? if im on my own im going to get a replacment just wanted to confirm before i ring up my provider!
Cheers, Alex.
Mine crashed twice before KE1 & 2, but since then it has been fine.
Same thing, black screen, first time I took the battery out and second time it recovered by holding down the power button for about 10 seconds.
Happened to me last night/this morning. The alarm didn't sound, nearly late for work. When I woke up look at my phone it was completely blank. Nothing, nada, had to pull the battery but still nothing so I plugged the charger in after a couple of minutes the battery icon came up.
It seems the phone lost discharged the battery completely from 78% when I went to sleep doing nothing for 8 hours.

Differnt issue, on inserting the battery back in i still have charge
Yep, I also had this problem but it only happened twice. Once before when I was on the stock firmware, and once after I updated to the first firmware. Now I am on the second firmware, it hasn't happened since but only time will tell.
I made a thread yesterday: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1081546
what did bmp.net say? (im with them also)

I'm going to see if it happens again with the latest firmware before I ring them. I did the troubleshooting thing on Samsung's site too and it says to wipe the battery pins and phone pins with a damp cloth.
Hi guys,
I got a serious problem. I imported a Nexus 4 from France to Belgium because it isn't availible in my country, I have it for three weeks now and I was very satisfied.
My friend received a S3 for Christmas so I decided to install Antutu; to compare the two phones.
Anyway, the Nexus just randomly crashed. It wouldn't turn on.
I tried to hard reset it, it didn't work.
I plugged it in to charge, for about an hour; it was blinking red, but still nothing.
Then I connected it in on my PC, the battery icon apperead, I clicked the powr button the Google logo appared again but it turned off.
Now it isn't recognized at all, there is no red blinking led and not recognized on PC..
Any help or I have to find a way to RMA it?
thanks a lot
use search

I have tried it but it isn't charging, I'll wait for an hour again.
I did lot of searching..
I had a similar problem while running Antutu yesterday
My phone was charged up to about 98% .. At this time I decided to run the benchmark when my phone suddenly turned off 1/2 way through..
I then decided to hold the power button for 10 secs to no avail..
I connected the charger to see if the screen would light up and lo and behold the phone started charging but I discovered my battery had drained to 0% all the way from 98%..
I wasnt sure what caused this so i let it charge for 2 mins then i turned on the phone....It was still at 3%....i left the phone connected to the charger for 15 mins but it never chrged past 3% so i disconnected the charger and restarted the phone..
By the time the phone was booted up, the battery was back to its original 98% and i havent experienced the problem since then even though i have run the antutu benchmark multiple times after the restart...
I find it odd though that we both experienced the problem while running antutu....my best guess is that there is a particular test that interferes with our phones power management
RMA was my only solution...
thanks anyway
