Hi i bough an XDA Trion from my friend, he told me that the battery is dead, so i bough new battery. the phone was working with no problem and in the morning i was going to check the time, the phone was off i tried to turn back on it didint work i was trying to charge it, that didnt work either so there is no power at all i dont know, why can someone help me out, i think one of the fuses blowed up because it was on charge for like 10 hours.
hmmmm there can be many reasons why ur thing doesnt turn on
1. Maybe your brand new battery is broken?
2. USB socket damaged?
3. the flexi copper wire that links your battery to the device are corroded or bent out of shape?
4. Phone is bricked. =[
Safest bet is to buy a desktop charger to charge the battery externally, then see if Activesync still recognizes your device when connected.
it doesnt turn on because there is no power going to the phone. i dont think there is something wrong with the battery because i used the same battery in my friends xda and it works great. so there is something wrong with the phone it doesnt read the power. from the battery and it doesnt charge the battery.
i also checked the socket that battery goes into, electric comes to that socket to charge the battery i checked it with my tung, but the phone doesnt charge battery and you cant turn it on.

This may seem like a funny question...
But would there happen to be any chargers JUST for the battery? I have a feeling that the usb port in the phone is broken, and I just purchased a new battery. So, I would have no way to charger the battery, nor use the phone...therefore if I could find a battery charger I would be all set. OR, are there any broken/cheap mda's out there that only function to charge the battery(i.e broken screen/speaker/etc)
What do you mean you have a feeling the USB port is broken? You should know this when it's time for a charge. If your device is stll under warranty, try to get a replacement. Since the 8125 is no longer available, you may be able to get a 8525. The same thing happened to me, and I got a replacement after talking to a Cingular rep.

I'm assuming you have a 8125 since this is the Wizard forum, and you did not state what type of device in your thread...
Yes, there are chargers that you can get just for the battery, just check out ebay and I'm sure you'll find a few of them. You might also try your local phone store if it's a decent one that carrys lots of accessories, you might be able to find one there.
I have a tmobile MDA. The phone is out of warranty, and therefore I can't get a replacement. Unless I want to pay for it. The phone is completely dead, to the point where it will no longer turn on. I have read that once the battery is below a critical level, it will no longer accept a charge. I've also read that I would have to give it a small boost via a cut USB cord, to get it above that critical level.
I'm assuming the usb port is dead due to the fact that the orange light no longer turns on. This could be due to the battery being so low, OR the usb port is defective and not accepting a charge.
I'll certainly check ebay for a battery charger. Anything specific I should look for?

Based on what you're saying here, a battery only charger won't help. Where if you can remember did you read that a battery can't be recharged after reaching a critical level? I have read where it's good to periodically drain the battery for extended battery life. The orange light is just the charging indicator, and the battery itself has nothing to do with it. You can plug in the charging port without a battery, and a working device wil show an orange charging light. Your charging port has lost connection inside. Did you drop or abuse your device? Either stock up on batteries, get another device, or have the one you have now repaired.
I'll look and see if I can't find one on there for you and post a link. If I remember right, just searching for t-mobile mda should get you a few of them although you may have to search through a few pages to find one.
Here's one that I just found that has both a sync charger and a spare battery charger(what you're looking for) - http://cgi.ebay.com/USB-AC-BATTERY-...yZ146435QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem
I know I've seen them that are just a spare battery charger without the sync and they were a lot cheaper but I didn't see any of them listed. I only went through a couple of pages though so I'm sure if you look a little harder than I did you can find them.
I found one on ebay. But I was able to jump start the battery w/ a cut USB cord, and now it's working fine.
Oh, I just read your post saying that your battery was completely dead. I can help you fix that one without cutting up a charger. All you need is a 9v battery and a couple of wires (wire bread ties will work if you don't have any wire handy).
Remove your battery from your phone and connect the 9v battery to it + to + and - to - for 10 seconds, disconnect it for 30 seconds and then repeat the process for a total of 10 times (connect fo 10 secs, disconnect for 30 secs). Then put the battery back in the phone and connect it to the charger again and charge it until it's full and then you should be good after that.

This method worked for me last week, I had the exact same issue and found the same fix somewhere on this forum, Great advice!
Hi all,
Right, the battery on my XDA Mini S was getting low, so I plugged it into the wall charger (not an official one, its a motorola mini usb charger 5v, 850mA)
It was left charging for a couple of days. I think? Someone could have turned off the switch? But the switch was on this morning
Anyway.....It doesn't boot, no signs of life at all, if i plug it into the wall charger then there's no lights.
Doesn't even go to boot loader.
No response when plugging it into USB.
I've tried hard reset, no nothing.
It's weird because its been working perfectly.
I've been googling and reading the forums here.
I've had a go at "jumping" or reviving the battery. Maybe I'm doing it wrong?
I bought a 9v battery, took apart a mini usb cable and removed the red and black wires. I've been holding the wires from the 9v battery connecters to the tips of the + and - plates.
Still nothing.
Can anyone suggest anything?
Surely it can't just become a paper weight suddenly?
This hasn't happened from flashing either.
I've also tried another charger, which didn't work, so the charger isn't the problem.
Wohoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
Fixed it.
I tried "reviving" the battery again.
Except this time I tried connecting the + and - to different plates.
My sticker on the back of my battery lies, and tells me the wrong + and -
So I googled what an XDA Mini S battery should REALLY look like....voila!
better buy a 1AMP Wall charger and don't let the battery completely discharge.
Yeah, I heard this problem with a friend of mine as well. Battery ran out completely and it wouldnt charge at all (seems that it only charges if the phone is on, so, yeah, figures).
My suggestion on that case would be to try something else to charge the battery alone, dont know a specific charge but sometimes little things like putting it in the freezer for some time works to give it a tiny little life back, enough to turn on the phone, you never know.
hey i have same problem with that
im using 9 v batteries and connect to mda batteries
but still nothing
what must i do. . . . . .
would someone help me
i try all but still nothing
2 days a go my mda can on but only bootloader and then off
till now im so confused
please help me
i run out of battery too and now can't find anyway to turn on my mobile to charge. need some help too. hix
someone help us........................
ok, found the way and revive my phone
1, take a usb cable and cut it
2, there are 4 wires: red,black,white and green
we need red and black so cut those white and green

Hi Guys
I have a problem with my TyTN at the moment.
My device is not charging.
Yesterday i put it in my Docking Station and wait a little time.
But Now the Tynt isnt charged.
I think ist a Problem with my TyTN Hardware.
I have all Power Supplys used they i have, but it doesent work.
Can you help me?
Its this a problem with the accu or a fuse on the circuit ?
Sorry for my broken english i hope you understand me.
Regards Patrik Laube
Hello,
first of all, try to soft reset the device.
If it fails, hard reset it.
If it doesn't work, go the service center.
Good luck
The above advice is fine. But you did not say if any of the LEDs are lit.
Do you get the red NO CHARGE LED?
Does your phone operate normally except for not charging?

Hello
My Phone is working fine but i cant charge it with the original HTC adapter.
I must load the accu with a special loader.
USB and Charge dont work....
And i have no warranty I cant send it to my operator.
When i plug in the USB Cable it doesent make everthing.
I think it was a to high voltage on the USB or the USB Ground ( - ) had a electrical Power for a litte moment.
Have you an idea?
Thanks for yur help.
Regards Patrik
I had a similar problem, which was sorted by a new rom, but I ascertained it was software problem when I realised it charged when powered off.

hi,
try this: when your device is connected via usb, tab on the battery icon in the taskbar on you device, go to the register "advanced" and check/uncheck "When Device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the pc"
thats it

I'm having an issue along these lines, also.
My phone has been working fine untill the other night when I tried to charge it via the wall electrical outlet. It will not charge at all, the battery has been drained to nothing and I can't turn it on. The yellowish light doesn't turn on when I plug it in like it used to.
I don't know if this is a battery issue or an issue with the USB connection inside of the phone. On a side note, when it did have power and I tried to connect it to the USB via the PC; it didn't work. The phone was on, but the computer didn't even notice the phone was plugged in. That leads me to believe it would be a connection issue; but I'm not quite sure.
If anyone has anything they can add to this I would appreciate it, thank you.
P.S. Bringing it to a service center is a bit out of the question in the mean time seeing as it was bought on eBay and funds are limited for the time-being.

Hello, I cannot find the "When Device is turned on, do not charge the battery when connected to the pc" in my device. My Rom is WM6.1 CE OS 5.2.20273 cooked by dvha79_ddt.
My HTC TyTN has the sample problem, but i can use the USB to charge normally. It cannot work using my AC adapter Only when the device is open...
About your Battery Issue.
I'll tell you exactly why ur phone isnt charging anymore... If you have been charging it alot on the USB or pretty much any!! charging on the USB u have killed ur battery, never charge your phone on the USB it kinda sucks they should make these phones able to be Sync'd thru USB without a battery cause these batteries should not be powered thru the USB over Time... from syncing to your pc will kill these batteries i have noticed that when u sync this Tytn Ithru USB and the device is at say 70% it charges up to 100% pretty fast i would recommand to you and anyone who reads this dont sync your TYTN or any HTCC phone for to long to the USB Cause it will Trash your batteries Life down the road... Hope this was HELPFUL.
Cheers
Paul

^I'm having the same problem with my herm200. I did the soft reset, hard reset changed ROMs but still the same problem. I don't think it's the usb connector because if it is it wouldn't have been able to charge the phone even if it's turned off. Before I'm able to charge it turned on but it would take a few minutes before the orange led turns on, but when I use the phone or if I receive a text the orange led would turn off it's like the charger disconnects but after a few minutes it would go back again. Now it just wouldn't charge turned on, sometimes it gets worse where it just wouldn't charge on or off.
Now I'm already planning to buy an external battery charger.

Are you using an official 1000mA charger? (Not a 500mA one) 500mA ones work, but they are under-powered and can cause strange behaviour, like not charging whilst turned on or whilst on a call. Similar problems can be found with car-chargers that will not charge until the device is soft reset.
Mike
^no it's not the official charger, I have this usb wall charger called Power Juice (phone and mp3 charger).
Input Voltage: AC100-240V
Output Voltage: 5V
Output Current:1000mAh
Do you think it's because I'm not using the original charger?
fixed my charging problems
The boyfriend told me to try a new cable for my charger so he bought me a 5pin usb cable, tried it at home and it worked! I still need to turn off the screen sometimes but that's ok at least I don't have to turn off the phone anymore. Now my battery charges less than 3 hours.
Hold both SoftKeys and Then press the Power button
Or you can also hold both softkeys and then put your stylus into the reset hole.
answer why it does not charge through the usb
Sorry for the very very late response. Under electrical legislation all hand held electrical devices must be insulated and fused. Some of the chargers that you can purchase are sealed without fuse which indicates that the phone has a fuse contained within its circuitry (or there may be 2 fuses one in each device) .
The problem you have encountered is that you have connected your phone to a computer or mains supply to charge. There has been a surge in the electrical supply either on connection or by un-connecting from these supplies (e.g. connect to the computer as it is booting would see a 65w signal through the USB) and this more often than not blows the fuse which sits on the PCB (printed circuit board) just after the usb connection internally to the phone.
you can either have the fuse fixed for 20/25 gbp or you can purchase a new circuit board or you can use an external charger for the battery. As it is only the power input point that is faulty.
hope this helps
Since we are at this non-charging & battery issue, I would like to ask this question on the D838pro. My battery won't charge even after 24 hours of charging. The red LED blinks thru the whole process. The LED did not turn on to orange or green. It is the battery problem because my spare battery works well. I would like to know what is wrong with the battery as I am willing to strip down the battery. Could it be the battery circuit or wiring that had fired?

Never tried stripping down a battery, some things... well, just don't seem worth it. However as a learning exercise it might be interesting. Without lots of testing on a good battery with a multimeter then I have no clue what the readings should be between all the contacts. (Now there's a little job for you) It is as likely the internal structure of the battery is screwed as it is to be a wiring problem.
If you solve it you can certainly report back here

Ok so last night I flashed my HD2 with MIUI last night and everything worked out great. So I went to sleep, the battery was around 35% so I let it sit in the charger in my computer. Next morning I wake up no response from the phone. Nothing, net even the orange charging light at the top. Everything is connected properly what do you think is the issue? Should I let it sit for a bit more? I also think there is an issue with the USB cable it's those one dollar cables off e-bay and it's starting to show the internal wires at the end.
probably battery is dead flat & will need charging externally from your device.
You can use a cut usb lead with + & - leads on correct battery pins for 10 minutes or so then insert battery & boot device & connect to charge.
Problem is MIUI will not charge when device is off or with a totally flat battery.

Ok, this time I'm about to buy a GOOD quality micro usb cable. With the old one I'll try what you said I don't want to ruin the battery or anything so is there anything I should take in account before and tips?
My battery is very bad, something went wrong, it is not charging anymore, my phone only turns on when connected to the notebok, but it doesn't really charge! It doesn`t charge even when connnected to the wall! What am I supposed to do?

you could try a new battery there cheap on ebay
you should buy a new charge-adapter look at amazon:good:
and your phone can't load fast when you plug it to your notebook
because your notebook usb-hub has not enough voltage
I had a similar issue battery wouldn't hold charge wouldn't turn on unless connected to the power kept restating etc had to send it to repair but they didn't state what was repaired. Try another battery or charging cable.
