Any body have this issue. When ever the phone is on and I need to pull the battery for whatever reason, it will not turn on when I put the battery back in.
If I wait and turn off the phone before taking out the battery it is fine though.
How I get it back on is a problem itself. It would take me upwards of 20 min of just pressing the power button x amount of time, removing the battery and charging it.
This isn't even happening when I am out of battery. I would have 90% left
Also sometime it looks like it tries to turn on, display the black screen with HTC logo and displays the radio... then it just keeps on rebooting itself. Never actually fully booting.

sounds like you are abusing your phone. dont mash buttons that many times, you are hurting it.
take the battery out, hold the power key for 10 seconds, let go. then put battery in, and press power key once.
if this doesnt work, get an iphone
I've read a few posts similar to this.
Solution: Once battery is out, leave out for 15-30 mins, reinstall battery WITHOUT turning device on, plug in power supply, wait an additional 5-10 mins before turning back on. Works for others.
OK will try this. Is there a reason why this always happend when I pull the battery though?
Also, check your pins. One of them may be bent.

Ok this way seem to work. Thanks
There wasn't any bent pins on it though. I thought that this was just one of the flaws of running Android on the HD2.
Because I never had an issue with pulling the battery and it not powering on while it was on the stock WIMO
thanks guys! it worked.
why do people continue to pull the battery? i think i've ever only pulled the battery once in the 3 months i've been flashing roms and testing builds. reset buttons always works for me. don't want to get them pins bent!

Hey
Usually I dont use caps in titles or "help" "urgent" etc but something has happpened to my Desire Z and now it just wont turn on.
Basically I left it charging with the green led on and when I went somewhere I noticed that the green led wasnt on but I supposed that it was actually blinking notifing me of some notification so I didnt even look. When I got to my destination, I went to turn it on and usual way a press of the power button. The screen didnt light up. I supposed it was some kernel panic or something so I simply took out the battery and put it back in and pressed the power button to turn on. This is when I started to worry: It didnt turn on. I again took it out and in and still nothing. Only at ONE point did it show the white HTC logo booting then it went black again and still nothing.
I came back home and plugged it into the charger, another fear: No LED at all. Im trying it with and without the battery and it seems like nothing. Seems dead.
Is there any other test I can do or something? Im worried about it....
Also, it is rooted so if I return it, I have the warranty problem of not serving rooted devices. And I cant unroot it since it wont turn on.
Please some help
Thanks!
After about 30 minutes without the batter inside, I reinstered it and it was plugged into the charger and orange LED went up I turned it on and it turned on
Relieved but....I do want to know the reason behind this just in case next time....My warranty expires May 5 so.....
On that last note, should I unroot it and return it just to get a refund? Scared something like this may rehappen.
By default, on a nightly, it was on the interactive governor when it has always been on ondamand. After reading a description, Ive changed it to ondamand just in case...
No one answered cause this is really common and you would have found hundreds of these threads if you had searched.
Next time it happens:
Take the battery out
Wait 5mins (not 5 seconds)
put battery in
hold the power button for a few seconds
plug in the charger after the screen has light up (NOT BEFORE)!)
Phone will boot and be charging
If that doesn't work, try again but leave the battery out for 30mins.
If that doesn't work you need a new battery.

Even though it is common, why does this happen?
The technical details behind it always help resolve a problem in the future.
Pretty self explanatory. It was dead for a couple of days, I put it on the charger for almost the whole day, now I get no picture, but the backlight is on when I hold the power down a minute. I bought it at walmart, doubt I have the receipt, and didn't get any extended warranty. Is there a way to fix this issue?
I've got the same issue. I was playing Tupsu, when suddenly my n7 rebooted and there was no picture, just semi-strong backlight. When the tablet died, the battery was about 45-50% and I was charging it through notebook's usb port (original n7 cable). I tried to turn it off, but pressing and holding the power button only made it reboot once again (i assume it was rebooting, since the backlight was turning off and on in a second). I've tried it many times, with tablet plugged into wall/usb charger, and even with the power+volume up/down combination, it would still behave the same way. However sometimes after rebooting there was not only backlight, but also thin, mostly white, horizontal lines, appearing in random places of the screen (appearing and disappearing after like 50-100 ms). It would stop only after a reboot, and happened every 5-10 reboots.
I've decided to let the battery die to see if it changes something, and as you may guess - it didn't. It died estimately after 2 or 3 hours. Now it's all the same, except for when I plug it to the charger, there's only a very low backlight (still no picture) and it's blinking... It also makes this continuous "electricity-related" (sorry, I don't know what's the word to call it ) sound. After I press the power on, or let it charge for 1-2 minutes it boots up, and there's just a semi-strong backlight, like earlier.
It's a refurbished 8gb n7, which I got 5 days ago from the polish Asus online store. Oh, and the speakers weren't 100% fine, if it changes something. They were fine at first, but after i plugged headphones in and out, they were making cracking sounds when the volume was over 50% or something like that. Is there any hope I can fix it myself?
edit: the android ver. is 4.2.2, not rooted
the device is getting warm on the left side when being charged, or just turned on...
Have you tried pulling the battery for a couple of minutes?

Nope, i don't want to mess with the hardware since i've bought it only few days ago... I'm afraid it may leave some traces of being opened, i'm not willing to take the risk.
You won't leave a trace pulling the battery. Just use a guitar pick or credit card and run it round, the back comes off very easily.

Yeah that is definitely worth a shot. Just pull the battery.
Ok, I did it.
Didn't change a thing >:[
btw. I didn't actually pulled off the battery, i've just disconnected it - it doesn't make a difference, does it? and another thing - the backlight was turning on immediately after connecting the battery... with these randomly popping horizontal lines.
I've got this too!

I've got this too! Pulling the battery does nothing. Last time it just fixed itself, now nothing.
Worried I'll have to take mine back.
How did that 'fixing itself' happened to you if i may ask? And how long did it last?
Your tablet has gone into sleep mode to protect the battery from further damage due to its low level of charge. What you're seeing is by design, as complete discharge of a lithium based battery is bad for it. You should never, ever, let it sit dead for a couple days. If you do discharge it to the point of shutdown again, immediately put some sort of charge on it, as waiting to long will cause the battery's protection circuit to fail completely. Best practice is to not let your device go to the point of shutdown, but rather to plug it in when not in use. Your battery will have a longer lifespan.
Plug your N7 into the charger and immediately press power and volume down to get into the bootloader. Once there, use the volume key to scroll to Power Off Device and then press the power button. After it powers off, unplug it and then plug it back in. It should then charge normally.
You seem not to have read my posts at all. When it happened, the battery was about 45-50% and it was plugged into the laptop's usb port. It suddenly rebooted and there was no more picture, just the backlight - and it lasted for like 2-3 hours (maybe even longer)! Can a completely discharged battery power the backlight for this long? After it turned off at last, i put it on charge and i've tried the power+volume method and it didn't do anything (btw. i already wrote about it)... then i let it charge for like 5-6 hours and it didn't change anything except for the fact, that the battery was evidently charged, because the backlight again lasted for few hours.

Actually, I was addressing the OP without realizing that this was a zombie thread.
To answer your question though... yes, when in sleep mode the battery can still turn on the backlight and keep it powered for some time due to the low power requirement of a black screen. Many users that have found themselves in sleep mode actually have their tablets enter into a prolonged cycle of bootloops. From the sounds of it, your device seems to have, for reasons unknown, put itself to sleep.
Anyway, I digress... I know you've stated you've tried various combinations of the power and volume keys. Have you attempted holding all three buttons for approximately 30-40 seconds while the tablet is plugged in? If it that will force it into the bootloader, you can follow the steps that I posted to get it up and running again. If not, then it seems your best available option is to seek an RMA from ASUS. Given your speaker issue, I'd send it back regardless- you shouldn't be expected to deal with battery and speaker issues after only five days.

Yep. Many times. And even longer than a minute.
Anyway, I'm going to contact their crappy support. Thanks everyone for trying to help.
It won't turn on even the battery icon is absent when I try to charge it. Also when I hold the power button for 15 seconds it only blinks/pulse 3 times(notification light). I bought this tablet at Best buy...and it's over 15 days now.
Can I still return. This one or get a replacement from Bestbuy/Google? My tablet isn't rooted yet with locked boot loader too.
Thanks.
Hold the power button for longer, like 30-60 seconds.
If that doesn't work, connect to charger and let it sit for a while, then repeat.

Thanks...it works now...and the battery was so drained it didn't power up for a couple of minutes ... . I checked the battery section and it was mainly caused by Vonage app...I don't know why ...it should consume about 50% of the battery... I just used it once . :/
I'm having the same problem I am completely stock with a locked boot loader. I had just took my device off the charger and it powered on and I saw Google so I thought it was starting up, when I looked back the device was off I've tried holding power for 30 seconds and even tried putting it back on the charger,but its not even showing the charging indicator.
Edit:I got it to work, I left it off the charger for 5 minutes and then tried charging it again and It started charging. I turned it on and it said I had 65% battery so I find it kind of weird that it didn't start up.
The title pretty much explains it.
My N4 died on me today after running an Antutu Benchmark. I was running on Android 4.4 with the latest Fauxkernel (v29).
I can't boot it up anymore without the charging cable plugged in. When the charging cable is plugged in, the LED flashes red once, the display turns on and shows me the battery charging indicator and turns off just a couple seconds later also with the LED flashing red once. If I attempt to turn it on, the Google sign appears but the phone turns off immediately after that and once again, say Hi! to the red LED.
Pretty much tried everything so far, charging my battery, getting into the recovery menu, pushing down the power+VOL Up buttons for 60 seconds, etc. Nothing helped.
Maybe you guys know any way to fix it? I don't wanna open my device nor replace the battery if possible.
Thanks in advance.
2 ways to fix it. first, leave your phone on the charger for 3-4 hours. thwn try to boot it into the bootloader and press turn off the phone. let it charge further. if that doesnt work, remove the back cover, remove the battery, then clip the battery back in. the second method works 100%.

I can get into the bootloader but once I select power off, the phone just turns on again and shows me the battery charging indicator. Not sure if it's supposed to be like that but the indicator is completely filled so that would probably mean the battery is full.
Not sure if I have the right screwdrivers to open the back.

the reason for rlod is that the phone thinks that it is under 0% battery. leave it on the indicator that is filled, thats a good start. when that filled indicator starts the reguler behavior that it looks like its filling(up and down), thats when your phone will be fixed. leave it charging for a few hours.

Alright, I'll try that out. It's kinda annoying though that the display turns on every few seconds and turns off again but if it's going to work later that'll be worth it. Thanks alot!
if worst comes to worst, remove the battery and plug the battery back in. this will "reset" the battery(like a normal battery pull for devices with a removable battery).
seems the post may drive users a mis-understanding to AnTuTu Benchmark, I will ask our engineer to double check.
Couldn't find any response or anyone with the same problem here. If it's the right place. Please, let me now.
I only can use it when it's plugged at the wall charger. And sometimes I can enter fastboot and recovery using the laptop. When I take out the cable, it dies again.
Tryed all stock versions (4.2, 4.3, 4.4 and 4.4.2) and all the same.
Tryed three new batteries and then go from 0 to 100% in one minute the go back to 0 and starts charging again.
I noticed that every time I try a new battery, it show the red led, and to start charging, I must hold power 10-15 sec then i can see the battery icon with the flashlight then charging. But when I press power after 15 hours of charging, the red light appears again. So i keep pressing and it turns on, but with the same result.
Any idea?
PD. Sorry about my english.

I am curious, how are you able to so easily swap out the batteries?
Has it always behaved like this (from new), randomly one day or after you changed something for example ROM, Kernel, some hardware etc?

After the first one, you are able to open and close it in 2 min.
One day it turned off and never woke up again. :crying:
Nobody? I'm about to put it in the garbage.
I've got a similar issue to the OP, I can force my phone to start, and have left it to "charge", but as soon as i disconnect the charger, the battery percentage goes down about 20%. if i then turn the phone off, I get a solid red notification light for about a second. to get the phone to turn on, i hold down the power and volume down buttons. If i hold down the power and volume up buttons, it appears to start charging, but never actually does. Any suggestions on how to get it to charge?
