XDA 2 Say Always Charging

http://forum.xda-developers.com/viewtopic.php?t=8348&highlight=always+charging
I have a same problem before. But im update my device rom to 1.72.00 (Imate Rom) (Before my device have a 1.72.00 T-Mobile Rom) that problem is gone until my charge going %15. After that not blinkin Orange light is coming (thats normal for charge is about 10-15% but) also Setting > Power say charging and My XDA think its charging. Im not plug in my device anywhere (Cradle, Power Charge, USB Sync) but its always thing charging and charge is faster dropping to zero.
I dont understand anythig about that. After that i plug in my USB sync in my notebook and recharge it. After my battery full (100%) im unplug the sync cable from my device and nothing change. Its still say charging
After this i decided (i dont know why i think about that. please dont ask ) i plug in USB sync cable and plug out on my PC (Cable still plugged in on my XDA 2) and device gone normal. And unplug sync cable from my device. Orange light is gone and Settings > Power say Battery Mode.
Is there anythig wrong that. I think this is totaly software error bu i dont know.
Thank you for your advice.

My case was different. No matter what I did, the device ALWAYS thought it was in charging mode. I sent it to the repair centre twice and the device gone back to the problem again after a while. They said the connector pin has been in short circuit and so it thought it was charging. They also accused me of damaging it. I asked them why it would be so when I use it normally, the staff said 'Machine is like that, nobody can gurantee'. I was angry and sent several rude mails to O2. Upon some negotiation, they changed a completely brand new model to me and the problem did not happen anymore. I have used this new one for several months in exactly the same way I did with the old one and nothing untoward happen. That proved the old one was not damaged by me!
Sorry for being long-winded and yet could not solve your problem.

Anyone can help?
My device still have a that problem.
Im looking lights now and its some time say charging and some times not.
Please help
Thank you

always charging
i still have same problem :!:
anyone? help?

omg, this is exactly what my problem is. My XDAII always thinks that it is charging even though it is not plugged to the charger nor the usb sync cradle. And the amber LED light is steadily lighted like when you are charging, battery life of the XDA has dramatically gone down, it wont last me 3 hours or so and yet it is still on standby mode. I had reflashed it with the latest ROm available, 2.06WWE i think, and still after that, after the cold reboot, the problem was still there. Anyone has a better solution to that? Im planning on returning my unit for servicing if the problem cant be solved.

i have same problem , help me now

This will be less likely to happen when using usb cable rather than cradle. If you get a magifying glass you may be able to see the short on the pins and possibly nudge it back into position with a very thin sewing needle or similar.

up
i have exactly this problem too (

I´ve the same problem since yesterday with my T-Mobile MDA², it´s Rom Version: 1.72.01GER (6 months in use without problems), Rom Date 03/16/04, Radio 1.17.00, Protocol 1337.28, ExtRom 1.72.170
The yellow light is always on and the batterie runs very fast out of energy (1-2 hours) and it´s always says charging and think it´s connected to AC power...

any fix to this problem?
or what happen now to those who have this problem?

I have this problems too!!! How to fix it?

My wizard doesn't start up anymore

Hi,
I have an unlocked wizard (MDA Vario) which worked perfectly for several weeks.
It was switched off, I thought because of an empty battery. I attempted to restart 3 times but it hanged during bootscreen ...
But the big problem is that nothing happens when I connect it to my pc to recharge, it doesn't even seem to charge when I connect it to the adaptor to recharge
So if it's a hardware failure, I cannot return it under warranty because in this situation I cannot relock it .
Can anybody help me out pleaaaaaaaaaaaaaase ?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Stoffel

Im having the same problem... alomost.
My bettery died and then it wouldnt start or charge. I was told to take the battery out and grab an old charger and expose the wires and directly apply the wires to the battery. It worked but my 9100 died again beofer it could fully boot and it still wont charge. I have tried the wire to battery charging method again and it doesnt seem to work anymore.
You may want to give it a try??
Out of curiosity, what ROM do you have installed?

Thanks to Dalamario the problem is fixed ...
He provided this link with an easy solution for this very annoying problem . I really thought my device or battery was defect :shock:

again the battery problem-not charging

Hi again
So I have the battery problem-it`s not charging!
at start it showed all the time that it`s charging-eaven when it was unplugged!
so I searched and disabled the usb charging,through registry.
But then started another problem-it shows that it`s connected to wallcharger and so,and it shows it`s charging,and how full the battery is...BUT!
it`s all fake! it shows 100% but after few mins dies!It only charges and holds the power normaly only when i charge it through differient methods-with just ac adapter(just two wires-my brothers electrician so he knews how to..).
but it`s not the batterys fault-I just bought a new one.
So-what could be the problem,any ideas?
thanks and have a nice day
P.S.
Oh,I got it used.
the info,that i found in it was:
ROM version:2.17.7.2 WWE
Radio version:02.07.10

trying going here.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/search.php?searchid=13319041
and also it might a the rom. try unlocking it and using a different rom. might help.

Please Help - Tytn won't charge!

hi every1,
i kno theres some very clever guys on this forum as many of my past problems i have been able 2 find fixes for. I hav searched the web but can't find much info on my latest problem and the info i hav found hasnt been very useful.
The problem i have is that a couple of days ago i put my tytn on charge when i returned to hopefully find it fully charged it had totally run out of battery and wouldn't turn on. with a bit of trial and error i managed 2 get it to turn on for a bit when plugged in - looked at the power meter and it said 0%. my first thought was that it must be a battery fault so i bought a new battery but i still can't charge my phone. I've tried it plugged into the mains and also through usb connection to my laptop and both have the same effect.
the problem has really puzzled me because i am able to transfer files through usb but cannot charge the phone. when i plug it in i initially get a red light but that soon turns to flashing amber lights and does not charge - i can turn it on with the new battery but it only has 50% left. i have already resorted to a hard reset and this did not fix my problem.
i would be greatful for any help or comments on my problem as i think its rather unique due to the lack of info on it.
i have an O2 XDA Trion (tytn) and it is running WM6 which i flashed myself but it is the official opperator update.
personally i feel this is a hardware issue, if anyone knows where i can get it repaired then that would be a great help too, i may try to take it back to O2 but i dont think they will be interested as i hav had it for about a year and i am now on orange but using the tytn.
cant wait 2 hear from u, thanks in advance for any help/suggestions.
Matt.

Some things to try:
http://michael-channon.spaces.live...._c=BlogPart&partqs=cat=Hermes+Charging+Issues
NB. The rocking the battery on and off the contacts mentioned in the above link, is more of a TyTn II trick but it may work with the Hermes.
Assuming one of the gold battery connector pins onthe Hermes is not disconnected then what you are trying to do with these tricks (to put it crudely) is to reset the charging circuit that seems to have a habit of getting "stuck". Incidentally this is a problem that seems to affect many phones by different manufacturers.

A perhaps first solution that has worked for me in the past. While it may seem elementary... perhaps the pins on your usb port are dirty. When I had my palm, I pretty much had to clean the bottom pins with a needle almost every time I wanted to sync, since they got a little grimey and didnt make a good connection. Try taking out the battery, and very lightly taking a needle and seeing if there is dirt or grime on the connections. Then blow on the port really hard (even better, use a can of compressed air) and see if that solves it.
Can't hurt to try

in reply to mike
thanks for the suggestion. hav tried these several times and had no joy, my phone does register a battery because the red light goes away when i put the battery in but there is no amber charge light just an amber light that flashes every 2-3 secs. do you kno anything else i could try or do u kno somewhere that may be able 2 fix it if its a hardware issue? thanks. matt.
in reply to jotek
i will try this as i wont do any harm but i cant see it helping much as i am able to transfer files accross usb no problem so i dont think theres any problem with the connection. thanks for the suggestion though. wish i knew more about how the phone works lol.

all ok now
just to let people know, i wasn't able to find anyway of getting it to charge again so have taken it back to O2 and was supprised to find it was still under manufacturers warranty so thay have sent it off for repair free of charge can take up to 2 weeks they said - what's the bets that its longer than that
Thanks for the previous suggestions

You mean your PC can read your phone,but your phone's battery cannot be charged somehow. Even the power is left 50 percent,you still cannot start your phone? It is strange. Have you try use the charger connect to your phone? Maybe there is something wrong whit a component about the pover switch.

[Q] Yureka not charging!!!!

My yureka was working properly. I put it to charging one day but dont know what happened battery percentage was decreasing instead of going up although it was showing that phone is charging. I have not done any new flashing at that tym. Now the phone is complete dead....zero battery....no charging in switched off mode too. What should I do and how to contact customer support to claim replacement if no other solution is there?

minus charging yu yureka
Hi,
I already do factory reset 2 times nothing happen
As well as use your link cm-12.0-YNG1TAS1K0-tomato-signed but nothing happen
still mobile minus charging

Hello,
I am also facing the same issue... I have contacted YU Support team, they gave me some solutions of soft reset, hard reset, flashing but it didn't resolve my issue. Finally they agreed to replace my device.
I believe YU doesn't have any solution for this issue.
If anyone found any solution for this issue let us know.
Thanks!

I am also having the same problem. The phone shows charging led(dead battery) but doesn't charge at all. When its charging while on, the battery decreases. I have tried a temporary solution and it worked.
All I did was get a universal battery charger for 200 bucks. Take out the battery from the phone and put it in the universal battery charger. It will charge the battery without the phone. I think there's some hardware problem with the phone that's why it doesn't charge the battery.

Same here with 12.1

hi i am also facing same problem with yureka
has anyone got solution

Please help m yaar

We all have to go to consumer court now this is the only solution who the **** are they to fool us
