so strange, i think this is not a fault of battery, because lithium polymer battery is really long lasting, have you connect your x1 to computer, please connect your x1 to charger and wait about 1 hour. but maybe it's the fault of mini usb port, can you sync your x1 before it happen? in your case, bring it up to guarantee service is the best solution, what did you do before the device turn off?
Leave it on the charger, it could take about 15 - 20 minutes to start charging if the battery completely died.
i used a wall charger, and a computer charger, still no luck...i wasnt doing anything, i was playing a game and shut the game off started browsing through the fone, and it just shut off after a few battery low warning sounds. but the red light goes on after a wall charger, but nothing when i try to turn it on, it doesnt turn on, and when i unplug it to try to turn the phone on, the side lights flash red...i have no idea whats goin on but i got the phone today and its pissing me off already i spent 680 on the phone for a peice of crap...

ah, you should keep it in the wall chager a bit longer, and don't use the computer charge at this time, when the battery complete die, you should keep it charge about 10 minutes before you can start it, don't worry, when you can see the flash light turn red, it's charging, wait a few minutes more, it's will work, just forget about it, go somewhere, when you comeback, push the power button:d

was had same problem.just leave it charged.i leave it charged into usb drive,and it needs 5h before he turn on.battery was completely dead,like probably you have too.just leave it charged throught the night.
Charge some time and then remove battery cover and try to reset. as u mentioned lights are flashing when u r trying to switch on so just reset.
The X1 of my colleague had the same problem and he had the battery replaced by the vendor, no questions asked as it was dead after only 2 days...
Charged without battery...

Hi, I got similar problem and I called the support guys.
They advised me to remove the battery and charge the phone for 30 min and charged with the battery for 1.5 hour.
He claimed is some 'internal battery' stuffs.
Anyway I tried and it works.
In addition, I charged the battery when the level hits a minimum of 20%.
So far so good
Good luck.

That Solution worked for me as well. I was in Germany with some navigation software to find my destination address. Than suddenly my phone died, I thought. So I was stuck somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
i drained my hero completely now when i plug my charger into the amber light blinks and the device won't turn on or charge like i said the amber light is blinking not solid please help!
im guessing its blinking because its low. have you tried pluggin it into the pc usb slot? tried another cable? maybe its just your one charger
how did you drain it? were you tethering and it got hot?

Try another charger, i had two chargers go bad on me.
i ran the battery down while i was talking on it.
and now it just does that.. im very depressed about it lol!
let it charge for a while until it has enough power to complete a boot cycle.
i tried this, it sat overngiht for 7 hours and stil ldoes the same thing..
Tried pulling the battery and putting it back in after a minute or two?
absolutely man i've tried everything i've known..
Just leave it plugged in with the blinking amber. It should charge up enough to turn solid amber within 15 minutes.
that's the thing i left it plugged u for 7 hours and still flashing amber
wow... don't know what to tell you. call sprint about that
Have you tried booting w/o the battery into recovery and resetting the battery stats?
I would definitely try what Biggz said above. I do recall hearing once that the type of battery the Hero uses isn't meant to be completely drained, and that's why it shuts off before it runs completely down to 0. You may have messed up your battery or something. I think the easiest thing to do would be to call Sprint.
Sounds like a problem ipods have lol..when the battery completely drains it,it sometimes doesnt charge up..n if it does it takes forever....try a different battery.if that dont work,take it to sprint..thats weird.keep us posted on what they tell u.....most likely the battery overheated.id probably take the battery out meanwhile i take it to sprint,just in case the battery leaks; it wont mess up the phone.
Yeah, Lithium-Ion batteries aren't meant to be deep cycled (completly draining them and then trying to charge them). It can shorten the batteries lifespan, or kill it altogether.

You can't boot into HBoot, Fastboot, or recovery without the battery. Tried it on mine.
battery issue
I've run into this issue like 4 times. Its one of my biggest issues w the hero. I go to bed w a low battery warning plug it in then i wake up to a paper weight.
Has anyone found a good answer? my phone charged 7hrs and I've been pulling the battery on off plug unplug for about 2 hrs now. I've already ordered a new battery but that wont help me today.
Anyone find a fix? I'm up for any and all suggestions: eek:
Anyone out there notice that on a completely full charge using the AC charger, the minute you pull out the charger, the batt indicator on the TAB will drop to 99% ? The 100% only last a couple of seconds!!! No apps running , wifi, BT, GSM is all off.
Is this normal ?
Yup. Same thing happens here. I think it's normal. Same thing happens with my mobile phone.
Thanks.. but this never happens to my mobile phones and that includes Samsung Omnia, Omnia II and Omnia Pro..
As soon as i pull my plug i am showing 98%.
Yep, I was wondering that too. It goes straight to 99%. I guess it's some bug, it doesn't really go to 99%
It's just rounding down, but think about it:
The moment you unplug it, you're consuming battery power.
If you've consumed any battery power, it can't be at 100%, now can it?
I really don't see the problem with it dropping to 99% .. really i don't !!

Any number of ways, but I have been using the "Batterylife" widget from curve fish on the market.
Thanks i installed it. I noticed that my battery drains quiet quickly, my tab was in stand by mode for 30 to 45 min and i battery drains by 9%. I just bought it this afternoon could please guide.

With a lot of android devices the battery is not calibrated with the system, there was a post on how to do this with a nexus one. i used it on my vibrant and it worked the same. it was a series of steps like plugging the phone in, powering off, powering on, unplugging again, weird stuff like that. and it actually works. sorry i dont know where the post is or the exact steps to do.

I did this for my captivate and works well:
1. Connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until it shows 100%
2. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off.
3. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the battery indicator shows 100% (you can use vol-up/vol-down to make the indicator come back up when the screen goes to sleep).
4. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on.
5. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the battery indicator shows 100%.
6. Disconnect the phone, power it on, and use it.
Hey, it doesn't happen to me so you must have something else going on.
The only thing that matters is how long the battery lasts between charges.
The percentage of charge shown on a battery gauge widget is meaningless unless the battery is draining abnormally in relationship to the way the tab is being used.
I find that my tab drains from 99% to 60% in about 2.5 hours with wifi on, GPS on, bluetooth off. It then takes another 4.5 hours or so to drop from 60% to about 10% under the same conditions. So... 7 hours of continous wifi on web browsing isn't much to complain about.

exactly..
Most modern electronic devices on Li-ion batteries do this. When the device reaches 100%, it will stop charging to prevent damage to the battery. The battery then drains to 90-95% and the charging circuit allows the battery to charge again. Most systems hide this by displaying the battery level at 100 or 99% for a while after the device is unplugged. Hope this helps!
My Phone won't turn on, even to load into magldr when charged. The phone sometimes vibrates when I plug it in, like it's trying to turn on, but doesn't have enough battery to load into magldr to charge...
The phone worked fine before (except semi-regular restarts, probably due to the memory card), so do you think the battery is the issue? If so should I just buy a new one and hope that it has enough charge to load magldr, then charge, or is there a way to charge the battery whilst it's not in the handset?
Cheers
Try making sure that the pins are both aligned to the battery.
thanks, you just saved me a tenner
can't believe i didn't think to check that...

No Problem
Incidently, i know you got it fixed which is great but for the record and anyone else searching for this.
If your battery is nackard and you cant get to WP7 and MAGLDR isnt able to load to start charging that way you can try to warm up the battery a bit, dont use a direct heat source, but just warm it slightly, dont over do it, or it might blow up, you'll help the chemical reactions inside which "might" be enough to get you in to magldr or even WP7 its self
anyhow, glad you fixed it!
If my battery dies completely, sometimes it wont turn back on and wont charge. But I found that if you pull the battery, plug the charger into the phone, and then put the battery back in while its plugged into the charger, it seems to fix the issue. It turns the device on and begins charging once again.

If it is really just standing for 1 minute, then it's your battery's problem! But if you've just enlarged the problem, you can calibrate your battery by charging it to 100%, then unplugging, let it drain the charge to 0% and turn off automatically. Try to turn it on without plugging till when it can't get turn on anymore. Then without turning it on, just plug it and charge it again to 100% (The LED goes to green). Then you can turn it on again. This may help!
