Hi, all,
My Titan/XV6800 often thinks that it's being recharged even after the USB cable has been unplugged from it. The Settings>Power screen shows "Charging" and the right LED is amber. Soft resets and temporarily removing the battery didn't help.
Ideas on how to fix this? I don't want to hard reset unless really needed. Thanks!
Update: A hard reset didn't fix it, either. And, the phone further thinks that it has charged itself to 100%, unplugged. I may just have the world's first kinetic powered PPC.

Hi, my device was low on battery and it went blank. Then I recharged it. After the recharge, the power button press started to soft reset the device and it got stuck at the blue windows mobile screen. After a few hard resets the device went totally blank. I took the battery out waited for a couple of hours, then put it on but no change in the situation. Now when I try to hard reset (camera+conn+soft reset) nothing happens. When I put connect it to the charger, nothing happens as well.
please help I am going mad in here.

use original battery and original charger. be patient, just let it connected long time. (this in case your battery was fully discharged and you did not no use your device for long time)
i am read that it stucks with blue windows well it is window mobile so you not have really blue window, but i think you mean the splash screen.
maybe you have downgraded your device somehow? If so, upgrade it again and it will not stuck any more at the "blue window"
many thanks. my i-mate is plugged in for power now.. there are no lights showing up as well.. i am being patient.. lets see how it goes.
It sounds to me that you have a problem with the battery connectors or maybe the battery it self.
I once let my Jamin run down (when I accidentally left MP3's playing over night) and it refused to boot (stuck on the splash screen just like yours).
Fortunately for me, once I connected the power supply, the problem went away.
If you don't see the orange "charging" light check all connections, make sure the battery is installed properly and the contact surfaces on it are clean, make sure the power supply is plugged in tightly and the wall socket has power.
If nothing helps you'll probably need a new battery.
Many Thanks.. I will order a new battery and see if it works. Very unlucky situation to be left Jaminless on the beach during my summer holiday..
I've needed to sync my MDA to my computer via USB without fully charging the battery. After syncing the two, I turn my phone off and disconnect the USB cord. The problem is that my battery reads as fully charged while only a few minutes prior it read as 75%. What the heck is going on?
Is anyone else having this issue?
Any suggestions?

Yeah, I have the exact same problem. Same thing happens when I soft reset the phone. It ends up going back to 100%.
this seems like it'll be a problem. if the battery keeps getting reset to 100%, then when is really fully charged? argh.
I have upgraded my Qtek 9100 with new Windows Mobile 6 WWE. After restarting the device everything worked OK, i just setted up basic things (clocks, owner information etc..) - nothing peremptory. After this I restarted it with soft reset again and it still worked... But then i shortly pressed power button (just to turn off the display) and after 10 minutes i wanted to turn it on again, but nothing happened.. The GSM LED diode still winked, but I couldnt turn the device on. So I used soft reset and again nothing happened, just GSM LED diode stopped winking. - Since this it was totaly bricked. I also tryed hard reset and bootloader mode, but none of this appered. The battery was 100% charged and I tryed to charge it again, but it didnt helped. I also tryed to take out and insert again the battery, but it still was unsuccessful What should I do now?
If the lights are still blinking then the phone still has life and appears to be operating (in some fashion). If you plug in the USB cable, does the charging light come on? If that does, then it is definetly still running.
I would suggest you taking the battery out and leaving it out for 5mins - 30mins. Then putting it back in and try turning it on. If nothing, try doing a hard reset after that. Also remove your SD card.
Good luck
Lights arent blinking at all. When I plug in the USB cable or charger, also no lights. I also tryed hard reset after plugging the battery, but again unsuccessful
Sorry, but its sure sounding like a bricked phone (although I've never heard of one that bricked sometime later. Usually its right after an upgrade).
Only other possibility is your battery has been completely drained. Can you get another battery to try in the phone? If not, then you can try jump starting the battery.

Yes, I know that is bricked. What should I do to unbrick it?
Temporary brick at most if it was still running after the update. Try the different combos of battery out and in. This sounds like what a device does when the battery is bombed. If nothing, a new battery is definitely in order before you assign it permanent doorstop status. Good luck.
Hi, hope someone can help. Baterry went dead whilst on a call, it was low. Tried to recharge through USB "device not recognised". Tried power and Orange LED comes on momentarily then phone cycles through booting. Sometimes you can see the boot screen other time just the vibration is felt. Tried soft reset hard reset every which way power on whilst connected, power off etc. Removed battery tried again, same. Left battery out for 30 minutes, same. It now appears to be stuck in bootloader screen and still cycling. How long does one have to leave the battery out? What else can I try???
Jerry rigged another destop charger so I could align the contacts and got some charge in the battery. Put it back in and charging normally, phone booted up as though nothing had happened. No hard reset evidence.
This morning my HD2(7) was totaly empty. The power button did not do anything and the phone won't start up. When I hooked it up to the charger, the red led did not come up and the phone was not charged at all.
I tried to do a soft reset, but nothing happend. Some posts on this forum suggested a hard reset, but I did not want to loose all content on my phone.
It seems that the real solution is very simple. Just connect the phone to a charger, remove the battery completly and then place the battery back in the phone. The HTC will now start up and begin to charge.
So, just a waring, do not hard reset when you phone stops charging...
Cheers, Rene
Funnily enough I put my phone on charge last night, forgetting that I'd also switched it off... Came to it this morning and remembered about the charging issue when switched off. Tried to switch the phone on and nothing... So I went to change the battery with the wife's HD2, but managed to mix up the batteries and found that my phone would switch on afterall and it was also fully charged. The wife had her's on charge overnight as well, so both batteries were showing as being full...
Charging issue has been fix up in the MAGLDR 1.13 version

There is no doubt that this is sensible advice, but there may be an overlap with another issue here.
I have noticed - and it could just be specific to my phone - that if the phone gets to the point where it shuts itself down to conserve power, it will often not restart from the power on button and only pulling the battery will wake it up. This seems to be a 'feature' of WP7 on HD2.
Interestingly, on several occasions where the battery has been fully charged (and still plugged in) the phone will not start from power on if I do a shut down - I tried it less than an hour ago after making a couple registry tweaks and only pulling the battery would persuade a fully charged phone to restart. It would be interesting to know if others are finding the same.
Where the battery is seriously discharged, it can take several cycles of pull battery - boot phone - phone decides it has insufficient battery and shuts down - pull battery - boot phone...before WP7 decides it has had enough juice trickled back into it to be able to charge - sounds crazy, but there you go.
MAGLDR v1.12 doesn't support charging, which doesn't help. I'm going to try v1.13 to see if agarp is correct - here's hoping.
Update: I don't think MAGLDR113 supports charging directly but I believe it has something built in to prevent a plugged in phone running down the battery. Not sure about exactly what, but it suggests something about booting the phone if plugged in and battery is at critical levels.
