Hello, I can't start my Neo. The battery has gone to 0% and I wanted to charge it, but it doesn't. The LED doesn't glow and if I try to power on, nothin happens Does anybody know what the reason can be?
Damaged charger? Damaged USB port on the XDA?
Doesn't look like a software problem. Maybe try to get some other battery, put it in and see what happens.

when your prophet shutdowns because the charging went to 0% you can not charge it with usb to pc. try thr regular ac-adapter this will work!

Hello to all
i have a problem with my wizard.
If i turn it on i see the splash screen and then it goes off nd won't turn on anymore. If i remove the battery for a few hours it will do the same.
I don't know why. I put it on the table before going to bed. At orning it was off and had this problem.
Does anyone know what has happend?

I think your batterys dead.
I agree once you go below a certain percentage it screws things up
I think the device is dead.
It doesn't charge anymore
In my experience,
the device won't charge unless it's in SLEEP mode or when it's turned on.
Try recharging from a standalone charger.
Try this
Take out the battery, wait few seconds and put it back on. Don't power it up just connect it to the USB/charger . Wait for few seconds and then a led should turn on. What color is the led ? Yellow or red ? Does the led turn on ?
I tried out but the led doesn't turn on.

try another thing...take out the battery, wait for few seconds, and then plug it in the wall charger, not the usb. Wait another few seconds and then plug in the battery.
If this doesn't do anything..i suggest trying with another battery. Or...i'm out of ideas.
I try at work tomorrow.
There I maybe can get another Vario for testing.
I post if it works or not.
But thanks for help.
Thanks for your help.
The battery is dead. I tried with the battery of another Wizard.
It works fine. I just bought a new battery
Glad you got it fixed.
it-2,
You didnt need to biy another battery. You can jump start your battery with a 9volt battery. There is anothe thread in this forum of how to do that. Look for 9volt posted by xeno1.

SITUATION
My Cingular 8500 does not power on. I have tried connecting it to wall charger as well as USB cable. The red or the orange light also does not come on. I tried all resets also but nothing worked.
BACKGROUND
a. My phone suddenly went off when I was opening the sliding keyboard. It had a decent (60%) charge at that time. After this it refuses to come on.
b. Only addition to the phone in the last 3 months has been a 2GB MicroSd Card. I inserted this card 4 days back and it was working fine.
c. The device is around 6 months old (but its unlocked, running WM6 and does not have any warranty)
d. I have been using the original wall charger to charge this phone regularly.
HELP REQUIRED
1. Is there a way to check if the problem is with the battery or with the phone? I do not have a spare battery.
2. Should any light come on if I connect the phone to charger without the battery inserted in it?
Thanks!
Try this:
1.) Remove battery
2.) Connect Hermes to charger or USB
3.) Insert the battery while Hermes is connected to charger
4.) Red light should turn Amber
5.) Soft Reset
i have the same situation going on ... except with mine the screen faded out...it came back on once...and faded out again and will not turn back on.. when i put it on the charger it was a red light.. and will not turn on or soft reset, or enter bootloader or hard reset. .. in addition i tried the method above and nothing has worked.... any other suggestions...my phone was working fine when this happened out of nowhere... i dont have insurance either i bought the phone from someone off of craigslist..help is greatly appreciated
I am having the exact same problem, I had about 30% charge, then it just shut off, and now will not come back on under its own power or via USB nor charger. I tried connecting the charger then inserting the battery, but I do not get any indicator lights at all.
I was running WM6, and the most recent thing installed was the pointUI home screen replacement app.
has anyone experienced this before?

It wont power on threw charger without a "good" battery plugged in.
Sounds like u might have a bad battery. Happend to a friend of mine "different phone" just go to a local Radioshack If they have your type of battery and have one in stock they will most likely let you try one on your phone. If not just go to ATT wireless store and see if they have one you can try and buy.

Dear demo23019, I am not sure if I understand the above correctly. Should the Power LED light up "red" when battery is not inserted?
Once I connect the phone to charger (wall or USB), without the battery inserted in it, no red light comes on.
Does this mean that there is some problem with the phone hardware?

Yea the power LED should light up red with out a battery plugged in. Check the usb plug on the bottom of your phone, make sure the middle piece inside is still there and didnt break off.

Oops. My phone's power LED does not light up when I connect it to the charger without the battery inserted in it.
I have checked the following :
a. usb plug is fine (I checked it by plugging it into the Y cable for the USB charger. The LED on the Y cable lights up when I connect the USB plug into it
b. The middle piece inside the socket at the bottom of the phone is still there and shows no signs of damage.
c. The wall charger is also working fine.
Does this conclude that the phone has a hardware fault and this is not linked to the battery being dead?
Similar Problems
I just had the same problem. I had it happen to my Att Tilt and then to my cingular 8525. You should check out this thread and maybe post your info there too, it would be nice to see everybody post in the same thread so we can figure out what's going on.

yh
yh i got the same problem, i touched the power button so it wld go into standby, and it then refused to turn back on, even when i soft resetted it. Plugged it into the wall charger without the battery and there is no red power light coming on.
I've got a MDA Vario II and though im gettin a replacement, it kinda sucks as it seems im gna lose all my data
can we try to determine in more detail what people installed before they experienced this?
I just pulled it apart, and cleaned the inside to no avail, nothing seems to be awry, atleast not to my untrained eye, however it did get me thinking.
I listen to music on my tytn all the time, and over time the usb connector has become quite loose, frequently losing connections over activesync and music comes and goes from both lef and right. if the USB connector is shot, then when I plug it in it won't register that there is power, nor will it have the power to light up the red light indicating there is no battery. also, if the usb link is shot, then the phone wasn't charging so my battery is likely dead.
now to test this out I need to have a verified 100% charged battery.
I currently have the same problem. It will not charge via wall/usb. It flashes red once and that's it. Without the battery and plugged in, I get a solid red light. I tried plugging it into the wall charger without a battery and then putting my battery back in. The red light just turns off. That's it. I can get an active sync connection with a dim white screen, but I do not have enough juice to try flashing a new rom. If anyone has issues like these, are you also able to get an activesync connection?
TIA
EDIT: Is it possible to bypass the low battery protection when flashing a rom? My battery is somewhere around 40% so it would be safe.
Update:
Okay, I purchased a new oem battery and a battery charging dock. This way I can charge the battery without the phone before I attempt to flash a new rom.
I still would appreciate it if anyone who has seen these symptoms (white screen BUT with lots of vibrating / no charging / no bootloader) could give me a few pointers. I've exhausted the Wiki and so far it seems my only option to save the phone is to flash a new rom. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to give me some advice.

I can only answer your last question definitively ... YES, you should be able to charge through a USB connection to a PC.
You say your battery stays at 60%? Wow...I wish MINE did that
Seriously ... what happens if you let it die? Drain the battery of ALL its juice. When it shuts down, keep on trying to restart it and let it run as long as it will. Eventually, you will not be able to start it at all. When that happens, plug it into a charger and leave it shut off until the LED glows green. Then try restarting it and seeing what your battery meter reads. IF IT'S STILL AT 60%, I would think it might be time to invest in a new battery.
Good luck,

My 2 months old Touch HD doesn't charge the battery anymore.
If i plug the power cord, the notification led turns red for 5-7 sec., then it turns off, and the battery meter shows no charging.
I can sync it with PC but runs again on battery, even the check box (under the power meter) is unchecked.
The only way to charge the battery, is to let the battery drains out (the phone turns itself off) and remove the battery from phone for few minutes.
I have the original ROM 1.57.831.1 (47324) WWE from 04/08/09 and i tried one hard reset ("clear storage" from settings).
Does anyone know how to fix this ?
I'm verry disappointed. Now it does'nt charge even i remove the battery.
I think i'll try the warranty service.
No other suggestions ?
Are you sure it is the problem of the HTC HD? I got hte same problem. But because I charged my second battery which was newly bought from the official website HTC UK. My original battery works well. So I returned my second battery.
Try another battery.

yep, same here...
my girlfriend and me, we own a HD, pretty much the same issue...
My device frist stated "unkown main battery status" and has been only willing to charge the battery while switched off and connected to PC (charger doesn't work).
My grilfriend's one now refuses to start at all.
One thing for sure - its not battery related since my fully recharged battery doesn't make her device starting.
I sometimes pulled out the battery without swichting the device off, or left it running for days before reseting it...i guess that might have triggered the problem...
gotta send it in, hopefully they don't mind my custom rom!

I had this problem to.... Change of USB cable did the trick! So.....it's possible that your USB mini cable is dead. Try another USB if you haven't tried it yet.
Thank you all.

I don't think it's the cable because i let the phone charging on my desk and suddenly, after few minutes (sometimes 1 min, sometimes 60 min) it stops charging (without touching/moving the cable),

Well, in your case, for sure its not battery related.
After i left the battery out of the phone for 6 hours, it start charging again for 45 min then, the notification led start blinking red and green. After 2 minutes, the led turns off and i started the phone with 40% battery life.
It's driving me crazy and i don't know what to think!
I start to believe it's a battery problem but i'll ask for service opinion too, since i payed a lot of money for this.
Solved
My handset was repaired in service.
The problem was hardware related, generated by malfunction of switching power alimentation mechanism to motherboard.
I ahve a major problem.
Today my battery went down, so I had to charge it.
I left it to charge when I returned the led was red, which means battery is low right? So I noticed it wasnt charging. I retried and was red again.
So I took the battery out and try to to start the phone with the charger attached. But it woudnt start.
The led was green and bliking yellow.
It wont even charge from the pc...................
What do I have to do? What could be wrong?
Thanx in advance
It's possible to turn charging off in the power settings... not sure what to suggest

Itsw working again. Battery seemed dead. I left it charging for one day.
it shouldn't do that, even if you charge it for that long. HP automatically stops charging when full.
Probably the mini usb port is broken. You should have it checked.
