This is the problem, i have a p3600 and the battery won't charge anymore, when i put it on charge the orange light blinks and the icon onscreen says the phone is plugged and the battery is charging, but the moment i unplug the battery goes to the charge level it had before.
i had the phone with standard factory settings, just the official upgrade to activate the gps and this started happening, i read some hints online that said to make a hard reset, i tried and it worked, the phone was working alright again and the battery was loading as normal.
I then tried to update with a cooked rom (lasagna full) and the upgrade went perfectly, except for the fact that the battry problem has returned, i tried to ard reset again with no luck. the problem is still there... what can i do except flashing again to factory settings ??

Hello knowledgeable guys out there, i had a major problem with my xdaII, the amber/green LED light just wont turn off, even when unplugged to the charger, im affraid that this can drain my battery, i tried hard-resseting and reflashing the rom, btw i use 2.06WWE rom and extended rom from Sin. Can anybody suggest a brighter idea?
21 views and still no reply?
Try to take off batery for few min.
Amber LED
I tell you pal.. just reflash your device and reload the OS once again, this might fix the bug..
Good luck... :?
i tried removing the battery and letting it drain off, but still the problem persist, its like its always on the charging mode even when you are not charging it, and its burning power more quickly, the battery dramatically goes down quick. Its original ROM was 1.66, then i encountered that problem, then i thought reflashing it with a newer version of ROM, 2.06 could fix the problem, but it still cant be fixed, any other bright ideas? or any of you guys out there had encountered this problem before?
Better bring it to your nearest service center. Its a mechanical problem.
Goodluck
ok, il try to bring it back to globe telecom, im sure its still under warranty. Thank you guys for your acknowledgement
I have a Qtek 2020i and recently I also have this problem, the amber led is always on even if it's not in charging mode, and the battery discharge very quickly, only one night! (I use 2400 mAh battery!).
If I do a soft reset and don't turn off the PDA, the amber led is not turned on, so looks like normal, but if I turn off and turn on again, the ambed led will turn on in 4s approximately.
I have this problem since the day I unplugged my 2020i from USB cable on PC (usb mode with CARD EXPORT) without desactivate usb connection on PC side.
I've tried everything but still not working, flash rom, activesync & usb mode, unscrew and open the pda completely...
Can anyone help?
Hi everyone,
I have an unusual problem and I have searched almost the whole internet but I have not found an answer, so now I turn to you for any ideas. My problem is that over the past month, my amber/orange charge light remains constantly on, even when the phone is not charging. I have tried to soft reset, I have looked into HKLM->Drivers->BuiltIn->Battery key and have found no solution. The phone will still charge the battery OK. The other bluetooth light works OK, it still blinks when bluetooth is on. The right led remains orange. I have also tried to take out the battery and re-insert, but issue persists. I am using Faria's 3.3 and IPL/SPL is 2.26, radio is 2.61.11 for over 6 months on a WIZA100, but the issue has occurred a little over a month. Phone has always been well taken care of, no major drops and absolutely no water has ever touched it. Battery drain is normal, I get about 1 day and a half of normal usage, push email. I thought it was batterystatus, and I have removed it, but problem persists. When I soft reset, as soon as the IPL/SPL screen comes on, better yet, as soon as the HTC logo screen before the IPL/SPL screen comes on, the battery light remains constant orange. Any ideas? Please help!!
Sincerely,
Ricardo Cheing

It doesn't sound like you've tried hard resetting your device yet. Hard resetting the device will not revert back to manufacturers rom but will bring you back to the part where you configure the phone, before customization.
I imagine this is the only way you are going to get the orange light to go away, at least when its not charging... You can hard reset by holding the comm manager and voice button and pressing the reset button with the stylus.
BACK UP EVERYTHING BEFORE HARD RESETTING!!!! If you do not, you will lose everything on the device IE: music, videos, pictures, documents etc...
Try to use another Radio ROM version. The charging related issues are related to the Radio ROM.
Thanks guys, I will change the radio rom on my phone before hard resetting. I didn't want to try to hard reset because of the way I already have my phone configured. I have heard there is a way to create a cab with all customizations, but I'll have to figure out how to do this. I will report more later, because I'm at work right now and I don't have the usb cable.

Hi, my phone last night (O2 XDA Mini S (Wizard)) started the exact same symptoms as you. At half 4 last night the screen came on and the phone claimed to be charging, while unplugged. I soft reset, but no change. by the morning the phone now claims to be fully charged. I've taken the battery out for a while, soft reset but nothing has worked so far, it now claims to be 100% charged constatnly, so i'm currently running the battery down to see what happens.
did you ever find a solution to this?
Hello, just wanted to update the thread, after 1-2 months of the battery charging light always on, no matter what, it fixed all by itself as I was preparing to hard reset my phone, no BS, I swear. I took the phone in my hand and was debating if I should hard reset or just flash another radio rom, and bam, I saw the light go back to normal, blinking green. That day it went back to always on, but then it would fix itself, but finally it's back to normal. So I went ahead and flashed the official T-MO 2.26/ 2.26.11 ROM which downgraded my Radio from 2.61 back to 2.26.11 and replaced my OS and then I flashed the official T-MO 3.08/ 2.69.11 ROM which upgraded my IPL/SPL and Radio. I then flashed Dr. Dot's BlackDiamond 2.0 WM6 and applied the 2.69.11 radio fix on XDA Mobile 6 Release 3. My phone has been wonderful since, thanks everyone.
hi leewebster try this and let me know if it works for you
thanks Ricardo Cheing ,
your input helped as this problem started when i had charged my phone with wife's dopod m700 charger
any way after playing around for some time i figured a workaround for it
i did the regitry hack for disabling the charging via the usb,
powered off the device by pressing the power button then took out the battery and put it back and then powered the device and the problem was sorted also the phone now will not charge when connected to the comp
now if i enable the charging via the usb then the problem returns
hope this is of help to somebody
ps: registry for disabling charging via usb
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/DRIVERS/BUILTIN/usbfndrv
enablineUsbcharging change the value to "0" (for disabling)
and
"1" (for re enabling)
Thanks for this tip, I have added a reference to this thread in the Wizard Wiki
just to update
today i re enabled the charging via the usb by making the registry hack , powered down the phone took out the battery and then restarted the device and was pleasently surprised to see that the device no longer had the solid amber light
device is working absolutely fine
Sweet hack
Hi, The post about disabling USB charging does indeed cure the charge light on all the time. Now the battery status works correctly. Only drawback was I use a cradle to charge with a USB plugged into a wall adapter. It won't work because of the USB being disabled and I mistakenly assumed since it was plugged into the wall it would although USB is USB whether powered from wall or computer. The factory AC adapter charges it fine though and the annoying light on all the time is gone. SWEET!! I will also re-enable it just to see if it remains gone like you did after a few days, and hopefully it will. If it doesn't I can live with it the way it is now
Thanks for the post!

I have been facing this same issue, however, when I go to battery icon and click on it, the next screen shows that the battery bar is running as it runs during charging, though the device is not connected neither with USB and/or wall charger, amber light is also stays on.

I must tell everyone here that this is my third battery and the last two faced the same problem and then died and now they are useless, using those two batteries, i can't turn the device on, i cannot charge the device, they are garbage now, please help if possible!

Hi i have rooted my wildfire from 2.1 to 2.2 froyo and since i've make this, when i charge with the phone off, the phone freezes: the phone will not turn on and the green led is not seen but only red led which remains on. I am forced to remove the battery every time I turn on the phone after charging.
How can i fix this? I have also tried to flash other radio images, but without success.
Who can help me?
It is a known bug of clockworkmod and there is no fix as of now. This persists even in v3.x

actually try pressing the power button and trackpad button both at the same time, that might turn it on.

Why not turn it on when charging ?
long time ago, when I used a Sony ericson, They claimed that better to turn it on during charging, it's can collect a electricity better than turn it off.
may be not true now.
I have to say this "My wildfire never shows 100% battery even if it is charged more than 10hrs.
Official ROM 2.2.1 !!
I try to root it but I cant create a gold card.
even i have same problem
stock 2.2

and if i restart it shows charged almost 90+ %

Did you already try to wipe your battery stats? It's in recovery > wipe > wipe battery stats.
Hi guys i have been having a very strange problem with my Legend, it only ever charges to 80% no matter how long you keep it on charge!
I factory reset it and it still kept doing the same thing, so i took it in for repair and they updated my firmware then factory reset and said it worked, i came home put my apps back on and now still the same problem!
I have found that if i take the battery out of the phone overnight then put it back in it will fully charge and the green light will light up, or if it hasnt charged overnight and i turn the phone off then take the battery out and put it back in it will register that its fully charged!
I turn off wifi and 3g and everything while i charge it so i cant seem to understand whats causing this?
any help would be appreciated!
Cheers

Have you tried resetting your battery stats? That could be an issue. If you have root, launch ClockworkMod recovery and find the "reset battery stats" option. Use it and try a full charge.
If that doesn't work then perhaps something in your phone's hardware is borked. If that's the case you should send for a replacement if you can.
Hi, I have a problem when charging and the phone is off. Few weeks later everything was ok - by which I mean that after few hours the phone signalised full battery by showing 5 full bars. Now I can leave the phone on charger even 12 hours but the fifth bar still blinks as if it was not charged. When online, everything goes fine: phone saying "charging" for some time, then "charged".
I`ve tried many ROMs since december and I believe its somehow related, but dont know how. I even tried formatting everything including sdcard in clockwork and then installing a clean stock ics rom but no change ...
Im afraid of breaking the battery somehow. With my second battery the phone acts normally - first "charging, then it states that battery is full. I found out that when I enter my spare battery into the phone and then give back the original one, its able to tell me "battery full" ... but not without this "swap" ... Im afraid of my battery be charged all the time - and damaged ...
NOTE: I want ti highlight that this problem happens only when the phone is OFF and I dont speak about the problem when phone was unable to reach 100%. This is different.
