Probably the wrong place but this forum is beyond navigation for newbies like me...
if you have let your battery run dry and can no longer charge and get into your win7 hd2, here's how I did it...remove sim and sd card, plug charger in, it will boot and charge again... worked for me...
I'll make sure to keep this in mind, if it works! I'll make an edit to announce my results when that unfortunate day comes.
Pulling the battery out and sticking it back in works too.

not for me. if its really discharged and i remove the battery, put it back, the charge led (orange) goes on and after 5sec its off again and nothing happens

Nope, that only works if you still have charge left in battery. removing and putting it back in also unlocks it because if you power on phone with USB in it locks for some reason. Well mine does anyway.
If your battery is completley dead then you have no choice (atm) to either charge the battery externally with a dock or by using a USB cable with end cut off (red wire to positive/black to negative).

Yes. That's what I also do many times. Never fails
No need to pull out your micro sd, it might cause your rom corrupt. Be careful!
Here's What works for me
Remove the battery .. put it back ... keep the down volume key pressed n press the power key ... THE phone will be on recovery screen... plug THE usb in .. leave it like this for like 15 mins n now reboot . It will be recharged just enuff to power the phone on ... keep the usb plugged and it will start rechaging ...
None of these tricks worked for me, and I didn't want to cut my usb cable...
But I solved the problem with dual boot. Now I can charge my hd2 when it's turned off, and I even have my battery able to charge up to 100%
I presume the phone will not charge if theres not enough power to enter WP7.
I thought the phone would charge by the USB power lead if its turned off.
I guess enter MAGLDR or the Tricolour screen will allow it to charge?

I've let my phone turn itself off twice since I've been on WP7 and pulling the battery has been enough to get it to boot up far enough to charge both times so maybe I've just been lucky or maybe the phone shuts down before it's completely discharged...
Oh man, this happened to me the other day. Battery died, phone wouldn't hold a charge. Freaked out!! But after some trial and error it worked.
Its not possible to charge the phone when its turned off?
This happened to me when I was still using WinMo. When I connected the phone to charger, it seemed dead (no led light), but after some time (I left it charging over night) it catched up and charged.
This is not possible with WP7? I wouldnt say, that MGDLR could change the way of charging when the phone is off.
keep an external charger for this problem. at least we can hope in the next update of the ROM will solve this problem
In my case, since I fall asleep while listen to music, in morning I wake up, phone already shutdown and can not boot. Even when I plug in, it boot to htc welcome then reboot.
I have tried to pull out the battery and put it back but nothing happen, my phone keep reboot.
So, I pull out the battery and charge with external charger (can charge battery only without phone). Then after 30min put it back then it works.
Thanks god. So be prepare an external charger because WP drain more power then we thought even with the warning 10%. I can not have enough power left for an over night.
This works for me.
This is known maglard issue. This steps works for me every time.
1. Remove battery and after few seconds place it back.
2. Connect your phone with PC through USB
3. Now enter bootloader by pressing Vol Down and Power buttons at same time.
4. Leave it connected for a few minutes.
5. Disconnect your phone from PC and remove battery for a few seconds.
6. Now place battery back and power up your phone.
7. You will start WP7 and now you can continue charging battery normaly.
MGDLR choose last option
it hapens to me and what i have done is in MGDLR I choose last option an it satart charging after some minutes you have to take out the baterry and reboot
it work for me
Happened to me this morning:
1) Took battery out, placed in cradle, put battery in, and held down 'POWER' whilst it booted to MAGLDR.
2) Selected USB Mass Storage Mode, waited for 10 minutes, pulled the battery out, whilst still in the cradle.
3) Re-inserted battery, allowed WP7 to boot, and orange light came on whilst booting, and started charging in WP7.
Thanks to all in this thread!

Tghe VOL DOWN + POWER works. Happened to me yesterday and after 10 minutes in tricolor I was able to boot.
Bootloader Charges Battery
VICTORY! I was frustrated, and pulling out the battery for a few seconds didn't help at all. Putting the phone in the bootloader (tricolor) screen for 10 minutes worked for me. Phone is back in WP7 and is charging.
No need to pull out battery just hold down power button boot to magdlr main menu leave charger in for 5 mins than boot wp7 (first option in menu) than shud work

I was doing an Odin of EG22 leak and it locked at setting pit file. I let it sit for about 30 minutes and still no change. I removed the cable (the battery is removed as odin never worked with the battery in the phone) and tried to re-enable download mode and I'm getting no response. There is no response from the phone when I plug it into a power source (no led light or battery charging icon on the screen). So did I just brick my phone?
Try removing the battery, plugging the phone into odin then re-inserting the battery.

My average response to this is always to try another cord.

I don't think it's the cord. The cord doesn't mean anything if I can't get the phone into download mode.

Try purging the juice from the phone. With the battery out, repeatedly press the power button and leave the battery out for a while...at least a couple of hours if you aren't having any luck.

Rare to find a real brick these days but you definitely have one. Try the magic pinhole button that some have and others do not. It is a pinhole inside the back cover right next to the camera lens. Push a pin or paperclip in there for a second or two.
Try the following:
1. Remove battery.
2. Hold down power button for a few seconds to drain juice.
3. Plug phone in USB
4. Wait a few seconds.. Unplug..
5. Put battery in.
6. Slide out keyboard, hold down #1 + Power key. Boot into download mode.
7. Plug USB back in.
Thats how I fixed my Odin catastraphe when my little girl unplugged the cable while odining
Plug phone into computer, take out battery, attempt to get into download mode... with odin open first.... IDK if anyone else has already suggested that but w/e

I get the feeling the above advice should be on stone tablets somewhere, so I archived it and hope I never need to test its use. ;-)

I did the same thing going from EC05 to EG22.... changing the modem.... I removed the battery for a few min. changed the usb cable and usb port... it came up first in a picture i have never (seen a small computer and phone) I removed battery one more time and was able to go to download mode..... good luck
Good to read up this info, we can all learn from others' mistakes. =P
SchizioPunk's Epic Experience 2.1 Eclair -> Odin to EC05. Rooted. Bloatware Removed. Voodoo Sound V9 Module Loaded. Enjoying my Customized Stock Experience.
I'm trying with Atlas_v2.2.pit file but it just hangs on Set Partition. I left it overnight just in case, next morning it was still set partition. Using Odin 1.3 and latest SCH i500 drivers from Samsung website.
I also think there is something fundamentally wrong with my phone. I can't get the computer to see the download mode. IE if I connect without battery and press volume down, the phone goes into the download mode but computer and Odin don't see it. I have to:
1) put battery in
2) connect to the computer
3) wait until battery charge status shows up
4) do 3-finger salute
5) when screne goes off just hold volume down, the phone then goes into download mode (but computer still doesn't see it)
6) disconnect the usb cable (that's why battery must be in or otherwise phone would shut off)
7) reconnect usb cable
Then my computer sees it and I can then remove the battery, though I tried with battery in and with battery out, both with the same poor result. Looks like I'm screwed.
Ps. I tried this on four different computers with two different original samsung usb cables. In all cases the computers do not see the downloading mode unless I jump through hoops outlined above.

Try this. Pull the battery so its off. Put the battery back in. Hold volume down and then hold power for about 2 seconds and then release power. Download Mode screen should show up. connect to computer and see if Odin sees it.

Great news...bad news.
It worked! It actually formatted the phone and loaded a rom (loaded geewiz 1.1 by accident, wanted powerwashed 2.0).
The bad news is after I disconnected the phone it won't restart. It's actually worse than that. Before I'd get the phone icon, triangle, computer icon. Now nothing. Black screen and absolutely nothing. 3-finger salute doesn't work and I can no longer put battery in, hold volume, press power for 2 seconds and let it go while holding volume and getting phone into downloading mode. It's absolutely dead and even when I put it into charger, the green battery icon doesn't come up (battery was full by the way).
One other thing. With battery in, it won't go into download mode when hooked up to pc. Without battery it will go into download mode, but computer won't see it.
edit- nvm

But when it's in download mode and I put the battery in, I can unplug it from computer and it will stay in download mode on battery alone. Should I run it down and try to recharge it?

I know you said you tried this on four different computers with two different Samsung cables, but on all of said computers were you using XP, vista, win7? And were all of these PC's using Odin 1.3?
I use vista home basic and Odin v 1.7 and Odin always sees it without the battery...just throwing some stuff out there maybe try different Odin version or PC that has a different os?? mighty be worth trying??

I thought my battery was bad but I got a new one and still can't start the phone or see a battery icon. Could it be damaged power button? Or maybe I screwed up boot loader with Heimdal?
Sent from my Droid using Tapatalk
Is it a Samsung battery or a generic one?...I know some generic batteries have issues with these phones??
Have you tried using Odin to repartition with a pit file since getting your new battery...I don't know much about heimdall but from what I understand you should be able to use Odin if you can get to download mode

Ok I feel stupid writing this, but turns out I was simply impatient and the new battery was simply discharged. Put it in, let it stay in the phone, battery icon showed up, charged it for a while, then went into download mode, re-partitioned and reloaded a rom and everything is back to normal.
I'd like to thank everyone, for your help.
Special thanks go out to times_infinity whose tip allowed me to connect the phone to the PC and have a reliable download mode operation.
Hey,
I have installed cLk and my battery ran out by accident, and when I put it in with my USB it just turns on the phone, then turns off almost straight away then turns on and goes in a loop. How can I ressurect my phone? I thought cLk was able to charge while off?
Thanks,
Snowled
Did you check the contact pins between battery and HD2 body?My experience is that the middle pin is so easy to be bent, and can not contact to the battery. This makes battery unchargeably.
CLK can be offline charging but I still get problem too if I want turn on my device,,,i must pull out my battery and back it back to turn on my device,,,,

This is due to how clk charges while off. AFAIK the phone isn't truly off when charging, instead it boots to something (clk?kernel?something else?) that just handles charging with the screen off. This is also why the hardware key lights will light up when charging while off. You don't need to pull the battery, just unplug from charger and power up.
If you still can't get it to charge, remove the battery, connect the usb cable then wait a few seconds, finally insert the battery and your phone should start charging normally .
cLK: phone off under charge
Hi guy
with cLK 1.5.0.3 when my phone is off and under charge, I have to remove the battery because the led stay on, and as if I push the power button, the phone doesn't start on.
This happen also when I unplugged the cable and push the power button like suggest to jwchips (2 post above)
There's a solution?
Ps. With phone off and usb cable is plugin, the battery charge.
still not charging
phone still not charging, I have to charge the battery outside of the phone, then insert it for the phone to boot up, then it will charge, if the battery died on me, it wont charge with the original charger or with the computer USB...
Enable in-built charging mode in CLKs advanced settings and try.
Don't know about Clk...but in magldr...when in boot menu screen...HD2 charges. (Led is off...no indication of charging...but it does).

What version of clk do you use? The latest experimental version can charge in off mode (both by recovery or built-in clk) and wake up your phone easily. You can charge in off mode when using old clk. But, the wake-up key combination is weird, i.e. volume up + volume down + power key. It is difficult to press them at the same time.
If all failed, charge the battery out of the phone.:fingers-crossed:
charge it in tricolor bootloader! (volume down + power) and it will not show led during charge

Are you sure about this? I don't know exactly what happens because I only have WPH 7.8 and I can't really rely on the battery indication while it turns on. Every time it is different.
So, maybe a new feature in the next release of MAGLDR can be a battery charge indication and levels? Since it boots up anyway to charge (even in magldr), i think it would be helpful. What do you all think? Maybe we post a humble request to the developers of MAGLDR?
Hey,
Today my phone's battery got fully drained and it won't boot again.
I'm on OmniROM, when i connect it to cable, there is no red led and i can't power up the phone.
When connecting to the computer, it is not recognized and i can't power up the phone either.

Had the same issue on omni, flashed other rom at around 20 % to not run into this situation.
Try reconnecting power a few times, maybe you can put enough juice into the battery to boot right into twrp - that's where it might charge - did for others - and where you have to go anyway for a new rom.
I had a similar situation on the stock rom. I had battery but the phone shut down and wouldn't start. When I plugged the phone in it didn't show a charging light. I left the phone plugged in for a few minutes then simply held the power button for about a minute and it eventually booted. Good luck

Try to plug the power cable then firmly push (hold) the power button for 2 minutes. Sometimes this way the stucked phone turns on... Good luck!
