Unknown of battery and unable to charge the battery by phone - JAMin, XDA Neo, S200 General

I have another battery cannot be charged by the wall charger via the Prophet, need to buy a separate desk charger to charge the battery independently.
While using this battery it shows "Unknown" of the battery status instead of a percentage. Also, sometimes my Prophet get white screen only after turned on. (pls see attached screenshot)
What can I do ?
When I use the original battery, it can be charged by the wall charger via the Prophet and it shows the percentage of the battery while charging and using.
Thanks!

is like the attached screen while using my battery, somehow it resumes to normal after couples of minute, but this problem will happen again if I turn off and turn on the screen.

After 100 days HD couldn't turn on Need Help

After have Touch HD for 100 daysI, have got a problem with it, it is about battery charging.
When HD turns on, it shows battery is low, then HD turns off automaticlly.
I tried charging battery with AC or USB, the Charging light is on but after hours, when turn on the devices it still shows battery is low, then turns off.
I changed a battery, it goes well, the device is on with all the fuction running well. and the previous battery is working after change the battery again. and it shows the battery is 90%.
But after a day. the problem is back again. and this time no matter what battery I changed, it still shows battery is low. and won't charge. even with the full battery the problem is same.
If you have the experience with this, please I do need your help.
BTW, The rom is from the factory.
Maybe the battery is fine, people have experinced problem with the actual charger. Have you tried charging through the computer?
Yes, I have tried charging with Computer, AC adpator and even Only charges the battery.
But the problem is not solved.
I suspect the HD's battery chip which manages the battery charging maybe broken ( if there is a battery chip)
Disconnect the HD from USB/Wall outlet. Remove the battery. Short circuit the pins in the HD battery compartment with a wire/metal piece. (never short the battery - it may explode!).
This helps in most cases for this problem. If not then warranty is the way to go.

Magic not charging, all LEDs off

I was on holiday last week and used my HTC Magic 32b for navigation with a universal car charger. I noticed the battery was not charging so I disconnected the phone. Now the phone does not charge the battery any more and all leds are off. I have tested the battery, bought a new one and tested the USB charger and they are OK. It seems the phone is simply not charging the battery and gets very hot. The phone starts with an externally charged battery, but I have the impression the battery discharges quickly. Any idea what I can do myself?

Check the battery contacts.
I have the exact same issue, I can't get it to charge at all, the contacts look like they are fine so I don't know what else to do. It won't charge or turn on even when directly plugged in anymore with the battery in, and when the battery finally says it is charged, it depletes in maybe an hour.
Same with mine. No LEDs, battery does not charge, not even a new one. And it discharges quickly. Maybe there's a shortcircuit somewhere caused by a defective car charger.

Charger supports but does not charge.

Hi,
I'm having this weird problem, maybe it's just a setting, but let me explain:
I connect the Flipout to my PC using the original USB and you can choose "charge, read memory, etc..."... anyways, the phone charges (the battery indicator jumps from left to right and eventually fills up).
However, I use the same USB on the original wall-charger then the battery changes to an "electric shock", and the wall-charger "supports" the phone (the battery does not drain), but does not charge. So if you got 50%, you will stay on 50% battery.
I connected the phone to the wall charger having 0% for about a half hour, and the phone is still no 0% (start on-screen).
When I unplug the charger, then I get a pop up saying "charger disconnected - save energy and plug out the charger from the wall".
So, what's wrong? The phone recognizes the charger, but it does not charge...
Greetings.

[Q] Critical battery icon showing when powered on.

I left my phone charging overnight via the wall charger. Battery registered at 1% when I started the charge.
When I woke up this morning I had a large low battery icon on the screen and the phone won't turn on. I disconnected the charge, tried charging with another charger but everytime it shows the SAMSUNG logo, then the large low battery icon.
I tried removing the battery, cleaning the charger port terminals, swapped out different USB cords, everything but a hard reset.
No matter what I do the phone will not start up.
Has anyone experienced this before, or possibly no how to resolve it?

Happened to me several times (on both my focuses Rogers and AT&T), and I came to the conclusion it's a bug somewhere in the phone or the battery. I'm not sure exactly where the problem is (software, hardware) but I can tell you how I fixed it.
What happens is, the battery is almost depleted, it actually is 1%. The phone incorrectly reads that thinks it's charged fully and doesn't allow further charging the battery. So, you're not able to charge the battery correctly.
Now, as I previously stated in some other posts, I recommend having a standalone charger (Samsung i9000 ones are compatible are very cheap) as well as a secondary battery. The depleted battery gets charged fine in the standalone charger and when it passes 5% charge, it can be charged fine (again) in the phone.
This doesn't happen often, I believe it happened 5 times in more than 300 charging cycles (2 phones x 150 charges, I have them for over a year) so it's not that common.
I also found that it *may* work if you charge the battery in another phone.
As a general thumb rule, it's important not to leave the battery to completely discharge, and connect the charger/usb when it reaches about 40% (when you can, ofc). Please refer to my post here to see how you can preserve battery life.

Did you try with another battery?
It seems the phone cannot handle it because the circuitry inside the battery may be broken.
Good luck.
i dont know anyone with the same phone.
after changing charging to pc and to wall many times my phone began to charging.
now is working perfectly...
Did you use the same cable for usb and wall connector charging? (cable broken?) Did you try another wall charger? (charging device broken?)

the problem only occur when my phone is 1% charge. After the last problem i can charge my phone without problems.
So you just can't let it get to 1%?

If the battery lower than 15%, it will warn, if lower than 5% it will auto close device. If the battery lower 5% then charge may cannot open device to charge.
