Mine is Cingular 8125
I flashed RUU_Prodigy_1060701_101_11310_QTEK_WWE_Ship to get IPL/SPL 1.06 and Redio 1.xx (I don't quite remember it).
then I flashed WM6 roms 5.2.1921(build 18521) which does not involve IPL/SPL and Radio.
Everything seems normal.
I leave it charge for all night, I saw 100% this morning, but the it drop to 50 after half an hour, and completely died after 1 hour.
I cannot recharge it when the phone is off, all lights are off, no flashing.
of course, I cannot turn it on.
Few days ago, when I was using WM5 with IPL/SPL 2.26, I can charge the battery, and I can use the phone with GSM and Wifi on for at least one day without recharge.
Need help, thank you.
Please Email me: [email protected]
I solved me problem with an universial car charger for variable voltage.
This charger is not for this phone, but it for many other things, such as PSP, Radio, etc.
I set the voltage as 4.5V, and I use two wires to take over the electrisity from + and - to the back of my phone.(there are a + sign and - sign on the battery), I hooked on the phone's + and - brush, and use this universial charger bootup my phone, then put on the battery, the battery would be charge for a little while, and enough to do another boot.
Dont use this method to charge the battery, it may burn your phone. and dont use higher than 4.5V for first bootup.
the same problem with you.the battery seems not so stable after I flash wm6 rom
PLease help me
I have a similar problem one night i was charging my cingular 8125 then after i wake up i look my cingular and it dont turn on!!!!
I put again to charge and it make the led red and if u leave the battery the red led continue, please help me!
Same problem but solved somehow
Same thing happened to me and I somehow solved it. It is not normal for a battery to suddenly drop dead. The problem is I think the battery has 2 cells inside and sometimes one is charged and the other gets stuck uncharged when the battery is old.
What I did is:
drain down the battery fully until the phone does not turn on any more. So the two cells get ballanced at 0 charge.
Plug in the official wall charger when the phone is off.
Press the turn on button. So it charges a little while phone is off. Wait 1 minute
Press power button again to turn the phone on, and leave it on until (if at all) charges to 100%.
Just my experience maybe it will work for you too. Worth trying! Correct me if i'm wrong ... good luck
Hi everybody,
I'm having a strange problem with my i-mate jam.. I've replaced the battery 2 months ago with a new one. The new battery works like a charm.. I can make calls with only 6% of charge..
Anyway, about a week ago, the battery meter started jumping all over the place; all of a sudden the meter would show 100% charge then change to "Charging" state with 0% charge (both the primary AND the backup battery)!! Then in a while change back to 100%, then eventually it goes back to the real charge value (65% for example).. And then it goes to 0% "Charging" and so on.....
When I connect the charger, the device shows the right charge value, but sometimes it gets stuck @ exactly 81% even after 2 hours of charging, the LED is constantly yellow as usual but I can see a green flash every 8 seconds or so..
Sometimes, the device behaves correctly and charges to 100% without any problems, but when that problem happens it gets so irritating and annoying, and I am totally confused about it coz I can't make out a logical explanation to why this keeps happening.. I didn't install/uninstall any new programs.
Do you guys know anything about that problem??
Thanks ahead for your replies..
P.S: here's my ROM info:
ROM version: 1.11.00 WWE
ROM date: 03/14/2005
Radio version: 1.11.00
does the old battery also behaves like that?

No, the old battery never behaved like that.. It's a new problem. Anyway, I discarded the old battery so I can't tell if it behaves the same or not.
As I'm writing right now, the phone is connected to the laptop via USB cable, the LED is yellow and the "Power" menu shows 0% battery and "Charging" status! It's been like that for almost 30 mins now! I have no idea what's going on, the phone appears to be charging but the power meter indicates 0%!!
Could it be something with the charging circuitry??
Sound like a typical hardware problem.

It could be. However, the meter has been behaving normally for 2 weeks now. And I'm linking the problem to low temperatures. Apparently, the new battery is of poor quality, so when the ambient temps. go below 12C the metering circuit starts showing false values.
I'll keep monitoring the problem and report if anything new happens.
Thanks all for your help.
i'm not sure but here in New Delhi when the temperaures have come down to almost zero, my device sometimes starts behaving like this but it corrects itself in about 5 seconds.and the battery is what was bundles with it and has been working perfectly from past 2 years.
Hi,
I have a problem during charging my battery in HTC Iolite.
LED which mean charging can stay yellow for many, many hours. For example today my device was charging from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. (9 hours), and the LED didn't change to green.
It change just when I twice use soft-reset and few times plug and unplug the battery charger cord.
Any one know what's the problem?
Best regards,
Radek
I have the same problem, but if i'm recharging the iolite from my computer via the USB cable it works properly and it turns green. Is this a common problem? Anyone else has this strange behaviour?
Maybe the wrong AC/DC - unit? Look at the backside. 230V or 110V input? (for instance from USA or some asian countries)

Mine says 100-240V and it came with an attachable European plug.

OK!
2nd idea: you have a AC/DC ad. from a navigation-unit? Try it, so you see, is the adaptor or the phone defect.

I don't think, it is phone or charger problem. Mine does the same (orange light for about 5 hrs). At first, I thought, it has something to do with SEX Battery enhancer, but I think, problem is somewhere else. Device is fully charging maybe for 2 hrs (just guessing) and when it is near full charge, it slows charging current. My laptop is doing it in the same way - Quick charge to 95 %, then slow to 100 %.
Also whe you use WiFi, BT or data connection, battery is draining and charging all the time. With combination above, it might be charging all day.
This is just my guess, but very probable one.

I'll try to charge via USB next time or in the car.
But so far I've used original AC/DC and second one from HTC Trinity. Both are 110-240V, 5V, 1A. And nothing has changed.
I have also a HTC Touch HD... but in my opinion it's not AC/DC problem.
Maybe should I change ROM or something?

... but in power settings (information tab) is a date of "last full charge" which changed when LED turns green...
My laptop charge to 100% in about 3-4 hours when I'm using it (2 hours when turn off), and after that battery is "unpluged" and working only on AC/DC. I think it's to prevent from battery damage because of still being charged.
Change ROM is not so easy, because are no many working ROMs avaiable (CID-lock!), only the oiginal ROMs. I think, torrentonly is on the right way.
I have the SEX-Battery-Enhancer on my phone too, my LED will be green after a while. You have any data scessions on, for instance bluetooth or AGPS?
I was disable all data connections, make the weatherupdate and internet with ActiveSync or wifi. With AdvancedConfig I was disabled the "auto data connection" and enabled the power management. My battery runs one week with normal using (ca. 3-4 calls per day and ca. 1/2 hour per day playing with any apps) 4-5 hours needed the loading from ca. 15% to 100%

If you mean the car charger kit, than I can say that when the last time I used the phone as a GPS it was fully charged after 1 hour (it was just half way charged when I connected it) and the green light came on just fine. This is a mistery
I use a AC/DC from my old Navi, have a mini-USB-plug. They have more power (the Volt is the same) and it works only with 230V~. Yesterday i was tested the original Power unit from Iolite - works too.
Now, when Palingo not makes data connection, maybe it works now?
Greetings
the device actually stops charging, but the led doesn't turn green
You can sense this - htc not being worm after a while (when it finishes charging)
If you soft reset the device, the led will turn green immediatly and the battery level will be 100%
So I guess it's something software based

My Iolite is from official HTC distributor, with original HTC ROM and without SIMLOCK. If I decide to update firmware I'll probably use original HTC ROM, but I don't know is there any newer than mine? And where can I find it? On HTC site?
I have:
ROM 1.09.479.3 (40104)
ROM date 01-16-09
RADIO 0.41.30.12
How CID-lock works?
I've installed SEX-Battery-Enhancer and going to plug AC/DC again We'll see what happen with LED
BTW: My battery runs about 3-4 days (in Trinity 2-3), but I turn-off phone radio for night (24:00-8:30).

I have exactly the same. But yesterday even after two or three soft resets LED didn't turn green.
Amazing
I've noticed this too - although it doesn't happen everytime. I'm pretty sure it's a software related issue as the charging itself works properly. The only trouble is with the battery indicator/led. I don't feel like hard-resetting my device yet though. Anyone here had the problem since the beginning? Maybe some of recently installed Apps made it work buggy (?).
Following apps have been installed in my device in period when I noticed this issue (maybe the list is not absolutely complete):
2_Way_Plus_InCall_Recording
FingerKeyb-2.1-QVGA-Giannis86
FingerSuite.v1.11
MobileMonger1.2
mobireader
MortPlayer-3.3-en
nitrogen-0.3.2-wm6
QuickMark-HTC-Niki-v3.8r4474
S2P-0.58-QVGA
VAlert
(Personally, I am little suspicious about S2P...)
My other thought is that my device totally ran out of the battery life before I noticed the problem for a first time. Maybe also this could be connected to the issue somehow...
So, 3 questions:
Did you notice the problem since the beginning or just recently after using the device for a few days already?
[*]If not, did you install any of the apps above (or any other you are suspicious about)?
[*]Didn't you make your battery flat before your first notice of the issue?
Got no more ideas right now...
light problem
I found some bugs concerning this indicator light.
- I tried a new carholder (Brodit) and thought that this was not the good one, because the light was still green. After trying to plug it just "in the wall" it was also still green.
So I gave it a soft reset and after that everything worked: any powersource made it turn orange.
- If I receive a message or an email there's no change. The indicator does not flash orange. Never. And all settings are just fine: warning (sound) and flash.
edit: according to the manual it should flash green when a message or mail is received. Problem is that there's no difference, because it's always flashing green.

1/ Yes, I have this problem from the first charging using AC/DC
2/ I don't use any of these apps so I can't tell you anything about them.
3/ I'm always charging battery when it's not less than 10%-30%
Yesterday I made a small trip, so I use car charger. Original from HTC. And after 2 hours LED turned into green.
So... What's the problem?!
I have the same problem.
I have the italia rom, when i charge the phone with PC usb it's ok, when i charge with the power adapter the only way for charge is shut down the phone and in 1 hour the charge is completed!
Same problem here
I have bought the Iolite two days ago and it have the same problem described in this thread.
The green light of battery charged doesn't appear and the PDA is always hot (even when it is turned off).
I try to hard reset and recharging it and it works fine, but after few hours it begin again: the phone became hot and the battery drains out in a few hour and if i try to recharge the green light never appear (it stay all night with the AC plug).
Anyone have some ideas?
thanks
e.
PS I have the Italian ROM too.
This doesn't look good to me. I had my phone tethered to my laptop while I slept which I do often with no problems. Today I got up and saw the LED was blinking orange and green. I looked and the battery was down to 11% even though the status bar showed the battery as being fully charged.
I popped the battery out and in, tried again, same thing.
When I plug it in the LED stays solid orange for about 5 seconds and then stats blinking.
I tried it on the OEM charger with phone turned both on and off.
It doesn't appear to be charging and the LED's are blinking green, orange.
Does this seem like a bad battery? I live in the US so accessories are hard to get, I don't have a spare battery to test yet.
What do you suggest? I have a new battery coming but it's going to take a while before it shows up.
I had that too for a minute. I suspected a faulty charge / sync cable, swapped it out, and never saw these LEDs again.
Had that too. I'm using a second non OEM Battery, I will try it with the original and give feedback.
I had that with my small charging-cable (non OEM) in my car.
I've tried multiple cables. I'm hoping the battery is the culprit. I have another one on the way but it's literally on a slow-boat from China. If it's not the batter then it's the phone and that's no good. Doesn't charge on, off or in bootloader mode. I've read all the threads and it really could be either. Fingers crossed.
My LED was blinking orange/green too
I was using a non-standard (cheap) battery when this suddenly occurred. Changed to original battery and everything was OK again. Seems like the original batteries are best after all (even if they cost ten times more in my country).
Think that too. My Original Battery works well. The Battery from China is "blinking" sometimes for about 15 minutes.
same or even worst problem
During the first day i buy the phone and charge for 10hour, after that i switch on my phone i was shocked my phone wasn't charge at all but the indicator light show from orange to green.
so i charge my phone for the second time, this time its show 100%. i browse the phone setting and function all that less than 30min and before i sleep it was left 70plus % and after i wake up its left with 20plus % and the timing from i sleep to wake up less than 5hr. my wifi ,gprs bluetooth 3g everything is off except the alarm.
now i charge my phone for the third time after charging for 8hr i switch it on and it did charge but only 20plus % and i continue charge my phone for the forth time. i sucessful switch on the phone and its show 100% but it suddenly turn off, i was shock don't know what went wrong i try switch on the phone and its show the phone is low battary.
so i charge it again and the indicator light turn green less then 1min and my phone becoming weird i can't charge and switch on. once awhile it can be turn on.
so i try charging it again and the phone keep on restart.
i got so fedup as the phone is a brand new set and use it for less then 1 week. i'm going to get it fix tomorrow.
anyone with the same problem or know anything when wrong can help pls.
Hard reset helped me + check if a cable is deep enough in the phone
i try already its still the same. do u have the same problem.
i was charging my phone 2 day ago, and listening to music and downloading a lot of mb from internet with wifi, and i putted it under my pillow
after about 2 or 3 hour i pulled it out and saw the orange and green blinking
my phone was like a fire stone, it had a very bad result, the lcd doesn't had touch sensitive anymore
after 2 hour the sensitivity came back, but the story didn't finish yet.
after that, every time i charge this phone, the lcd sensitivity goes off,and after i cool it down, sensitivity comes back
but now while i'm sending this message, the half of screen doesn't have any touch sense what is your suggestion for me???
I had the same issue with my original battery - turned out that the middle pin in the battery connector had been bent when I swapped batteries - I straightened the pin back to normal position and now it charges fine again.
Jon
i am having this problem too. the led is blinking and the battery is not charging. i am forced to use a cradle to charge it up.
The orange and green blinking on charge happened to me a couple of times. In all instances the phone was too hot due to having it covered or temperature of the room was also too hot. Allowing it to cool made it work again. I haven't suffered from this problem ever since I started keep it well ventilated. Hope this helps.
yup. i google for it. and notice it due to overheat. i tried with air con on. it seem working well.
but for me. i cant feel any overheat (like hot/heat on my device when it start blinking.
hide.
The blinking light is the phone saying its overheating
this happened to me but the worst thing was I could of bought a 1500mAh battery from Hong Kong for something like £5/6 but i decided to buy one from my own country the UK and i read that an extended type was the best so i bought an extended 1350mAh for £7.99 thinking i would have no issues but its with this new battery that it overheats if i am charging via wall or pc and using my phone!
using tbattery it says the battery is only a 1230mAh anyway!!
but with my original battery i can charge and use at the same time so kinda annoyed i thought i was paying more to get better but i guess i live and learn
so now i have ordered an 1600mAh for my phone for £5.99
i should just use it as a backup battery .
p/s : what is the average battery temperature ?

Don't hijack threads!
Start a new one otherwise you won't get any reply for your efforts!
I bought 2 batteries from eBay. The cheap Hong Kong one does this at 60%. The other one was from the UK and claims to be the real thing, and it charges all the way to 100% and has given me no problems (it's the one I've been using for the last 30 days).
Moral of the story: Buy official batteries.
Hi all,
a few days ago I`ve got the same issue. Please don`t laugh, but sollution I`ve found is really funny.
Firstly I was trying to flash different ROMs, Radios with no luck. Trying to clean battery contacts and phone contact pins, especially the middle one, with no luck again.
Then, thinking logically ( ), I`ve found what changes occure to my phone. I didn`t flash a new ROM, didn`t intall any new software and so on before the charging become naughty. The only thing that changed was the temperature around, now here is hot like in hell: about +30C. So I plugged in portable charger and put it with my hd2 into refrigirator (changed it to maximum t to avoid any inconvenience) into low humidity container. In a few hours battery stated was shown as 100%. The next time I was trying to charge it again in the room, but got only blinking led, had to put it back into refrigirator
Seems that battery or phone has a temperature sensor, which stops charging when batt t raises above safe level. I believe sometimes this sensor fails or smth like that and charging can be stopped even when t is not so high..
Dear ppl,
When i put my HD2 into the wall outlet = charger (220 volt, i live in Holland, Europe) it fully loads to 100%, but when it reaches it stops charging and starts draining my battery like the phone wasn't in the charger. I connected my phone at 80% in the charger. I went to sleep, when i woke up the battery was only 50% how can this be?
Will a rm /data/system/batterystats.bin solves this problem? Or is tis only for ppl who's phone won't charge the full 100? I have the same problem with MDJ Froyo Sense Revo 1.5. I never had this problem with the build MDJ revolution 2.3 but it effected the 2.3 build last night to
Android build: MDJ FroYo Sense Revolution v.1.6 [kernel: MDJ S3.1]
WinMO Build: ChuckyROM GTX lite
Radio: 2.15.x.x.x
Can anybody help me?
------------------------------
The malfunction was:
With my own battery when i connect it to the charger the lightning icon appears but the batteryicon isn't moving, so its not loading. With my friends battery the batteryicon is moving, so it my battery that is defective.
Sounds to me like your battery might be deffective. Try to remove to battery stats.bin... If it still does it, get a new battery
Okay, did a rm batterystats.bin and i will see what happens if i go the sleep and put the phone in the charger. I ain't the only one with this problem. Some ppl in the MDJ's threads have the same ****.. so i don't think my battery is defective.
It did not help anyone got any ideas??
Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA App
Des no1 have any other ideas at all????
Experienced the problem too this night. Had 42% left, linked the phone to the charger and had 14% left this morning.
Running the latest [email protected] with the 2.12.50.02_2 radio and 2.08HSPL.
Rebooting the device fixed the problem, but I have no idea what the reason for it was...
Or maybe ,
this happens when you use USB extenders, connect directly ( if you're actually using them)
Try booting in Windows Mobile, then go to Settings, All Settings, System, Power, and be sure the box isn't checked. It says "When phone is on, do not charge the battery when connected to a PC."
I have no idea if this would affect charging ability when the phone's running Android, but I have had my phone stop charging when this was checked if I was using an off-brand charger in Windows Mobile.
When i turn the phone off and insert the charger then my phone charges. Cuz when i boot my phone i see the percentage has gone up... Is my battery defective of is it my phone?
Hmm i installed the new 3.14 official htc rom and i deleted Excellent Boat Loader 2.0. Now when im in Andoird and WinMO the phone charges again. I noticed the problem started when i started to use EBL 2.0 cooked in with chuckyrom. I will charge the phone evernight and hopefully the problem wont appear again!
Still the same **** is it my battery or my phone?
you got another battery to try out??
With my own battery when i connect it to the charger the lightning icon appears but the batteryicon isn't moving, so its not loading. With my friends battery the batteryicon is moving, so it my battery what is defective.
