So I have read about MAGLDR 1.13 battery drain fix "*Fixed Power-Off-Cable-Plug-Stop. Phone now detects this situation and reboots. Battery controller inside LEO needs runtime control during charge, it implemented in OS." and Yes that works fine! However once im in my OS Hyperdroid, my battery dies instantly and my phone turns off and turns back on thanks to MAGLDR then repeats until I unplug my charger.
Why wont my battery charge once im in the OS
Side note - I have taken the batery out and charged it via USB Red on + and Black on - If i charge it for 30 sec it will boot to OS and have 0% once i stick the charger in it dies instantly and reboots
Side note 2 - "" If I charge for over a min via Red/Black +/- it will boot into os and give me a inaccurate battery reading of 60-65% and will not charge once I insert the charger.
Can anybody help?
It looks, you may have to charge battery a little bit in Bootloader screen before you can turn in to OS.
I think something might be wrong with your cable or charger. When you charge, do you get over 800ma or similar? Use current widget to check.
$1 gets you a reply
Have the charger plugged in all the time, and charging should start long before the rom finishes booting. The also, do use the wall charger, and not the pc's usb slot, which may connect and disconnect the time or two during boot, and stopping charging.
Thanks guys I have used 2 different chargers and it doesnt seem to be the case, im going to chop this up as I need a new battery, when i charge it manually via Red/Black to +/- for over 30sec it gives my O/S a false reading and says its 65% charged, ima buy a new one and see if this is the case.... I really hope this works and thanks for your help!

Hi,
My wizard main battery (wiza16) was very low and the wizard stop with a message “The internal battery is very low”. After coming back home I have tried to charge but it is not taking charge and didn’t turn on anymore. I recently bought a new battery (wiza16, 3.7 VDC, 1250 mAH) thinking that it will work again but still the same problem, wizard is not taking charge or turn on.
Can anyone help me?? What can I do to start my wizard? Do I need to change the tiny little battery (which is inside the wizard)? Kindly help me.
Wizard service manual
Hi,
See if when you connect the power plug the led turns red, if yes....
If Charge light is red when plug in AC adapter, it means the main battery is not charge enough and can’t power on,
You just need to continue charge unit the light become Amber
If not, i think you have a problem.
Check if charger its working and if its pluged.

Wizard Battery discharge completely
Hi,
Thanks for quick reply. there is no light when i connect my wizard with PC. I don't have the AC charger, I have lost that for long and was using my PC usb to charge. trying to get one AC charger.
There was no problem with my wizard, just can't turn on after it's battery discharge completely. Even the new battery couldn't turn that on.
You'll need the original charger if the battery has complelty discharged as it will only charge from the computer if the phone is powered on.
This happened to me before.
There is a trick to giving the battery a quick charge which will give it enough juice to boot the phone up and allow it to charge from usb. its not recommended but works.
You will need a spare usb cable, cut one end of, strip the wires back and connect the red wire to + and the black to - on the battery, only do it for a short period, about 30 seconds while conneted to your computer.
You may need to give it a few 30 second bursts to give it enough juice.
Pop the battery back into the phone and switch it on while pugged into the PC
Took me a few attempts to get enough charge in the battery for it to boot up.
Wizard battery
You can also use a 9V battery to jumpstart your battery. But then you have to be more careful. I connected the 9v battery to my Wizard battery for about 15 seconds, then tried to start up my device. If not successful I started again with 15 seconds jumpstart..
But you can find more information here in the forum: just search for jumpstart or something similar....

Wizard Battery discharge completely
Thank you all for information. 9V battery method didn't work for me. Looking for AC charger online and get a link (http://www2.dustin.se/pd_5010073700.aspx). Do you think this is the right one? If yes, then I can order.
yea that's the right one but if you have a friend with a ppc or maybe a razor you can use there charger most ac adapters are starting to use mini usb just a way of saving some money even though having an ac adapter is good
could also try and get one of those usb plugs that you can plug up to a wall and plug in a usb cable into the slot
but don't take my word for this wit hmy wizard i haven't had it shut all the way day
if anybody can verify this would work
AC charger not also working
I have got the AC charger yesterday. When Connect the Ac charger first time the red light on my wizard showed for just half second then dissappear. Still let that connected for whole night but no response.
Thank you all for help.
@Keland44, most Razr chargers dont work, they MUST be at least 850mA in order for the Wizard's battery to receive anything. The older Razr chargers are sometimes as low as 350mA, but the never ones are as high as 1.2A, so you need to read the label on the charger itself to be sure.

Yup that is about right,
If the battery is complelty dead, then you need to original charger.
If you have got the right charger and you get a red light and it goes off. your phone might have a problem.
This happened to my last wizard after stupidly trying to dry out the screen after getting it wet which stopped the touchscreen working (i was drying it out while the phone was still on) well my wizard crashed.
Took ages to get it back on but it was very unreliable then one day, it wouldnt go on and charger done nothing. Unpluging and pluging the charger in several times got a red light on.
Sometimes i could get it to turn on, the charger would charge for about 5 minutes then the phone would die soon after.
Your phone might possibly be bricked.

some body help
the first battery charge on the HD is supposed to be a 8 or 10 or 12 hour charge? or on its not necesary
also the time used to charge it to the pc via usb cable is same as if ud plug it in the electric socket?
how long dose it take for u to charge ur phone.....
mine had 4 lines out of 10 and after 3 hours of it beeing conected to my pc and not in use its still got 4 lines....
opinions seem to vary on how long for 1st charge - personally I left mine on (mains) overnight, but that's just because I've had mobiles since year dot, and you used to have to!
But charging via PC doesn't seem to work as well as from the mains charger - depends a lot on the PC and how much juice it kicks out, some are a lot better than others.
Modern phones/batteries do not need "overnight" charging. My Touch HD even came with a little note saying you don't need to charge for 16hrs/overnight. Just charge until it's full...
Better to charge with wall socket because not all USB ports provide enough current. Some can't charge through the USB port while some can.
I can charge through my notebook but it takes a lot longer than the wall socket.
thanks bouth of u for the fast anwsers....
When I set WiFi settings to max performance, my HTC HD will not charge at all, actually it will loose charge during night, display is off, just WiFi, GSM and GPS is active, connected to provided wall charger. Back side of phone is really hot, I measured over 54°C
Problems charging.
guys(and lady's) Just got my HD. been running it for some time to drain the battery, while on my laptop the battery starts charging. I wanted to drain the battery to give it a good charge afterwords so I turnd off the option of charging while unit is active( in batt. menu) but When I got to 5% batt.cap. an tried to charge the unit (batt. option enabled again) it doesn't charge. now my batt. is empty and can't get in the phone. while on power my battery charging led gives a couple of seconds of charge indication then it turns off.
Any suggestions or is my battery dead. (charging unit is oke, and when on power the HD does give sufficient power to the battery (measured with mulitmeter) thx guys edit - Als when on power green and amber lights blink.
Could that be that your battery is too hot ? There is some safety protection that prevent the batyery to charge when it is over a temperature level.
battery not charging properly
My touch hd not charge the battery more then 50% i change the battery but same as before.

Touch HD Battery Charging Problem
The rom i am using is Energy 3 Rom
and try to use both sources wall socket and pc usb both are same.
if i charge the battery on usb cradle and put the phone it shoes 100% but after some use of the phone the charging start again and never show's full even left it over night.
Best regards
Not sure what's going on there,but try draining the battery to almost empty each time and then turn your phone off before charging it. Do this a few times and see if it helps. Mine took about a month beforeit came good.
Dear samlives
Thanks for helping
I will try it

Hi,
I heard someone say,that if you have an old cable,and cut off the phone end and touching the terminals on the battery,it will give just enough charge to boot on.
Then plug in asap.
cant you get to the magldr menu and leave it there to charge?
You can't charge in MAGLDR... it's disabled.
get an old usb cable, mini or micro, doesnt matter, cut end off, bare the red and black wires, remove battery, black wire to battery - terminal, red to battery + terminal, plug into wall charger, hold wires there for about half a minute (can use your fingers, wont get a shock) or use PC usb socket for about a minute (lower charge on USB compared to wall charger), reinsert battery, turn on, plug real cable into phone and wall charger, and the charging light should come on about half way thru android booting.
Done this three times now with no problem, except the first time i didnt give it long enough and it died again whilst booting.
is this REALLY my only opinion?
Cant believe it.. :/
Thanks anyway, gonna try this
No, there are other options, but they involve another hd2 running winmo (or cLk) or buying an external charger.
How can i charge it with CLK?
Right now you have to do the wire trick. And when your phone is fully charged, you can flash CLK instead of MAGLDR. CLK is able to charge when phone is swiched off. Another option is to not let your phone go completely dead. )

Just flash clk If u can cuz you can charge with phone completely off

Sent from my HTC HD2 using XDA Premium App
ahh well im sure i used to run my battery to nothing when using magldr and never had issues plugging a charger in to get it to boot it up
I did not used hd2 for a while and when I try to recharge the battery nothing happens. An idea to put all this way?
what os ? if android you probably need charge externally as can not charge when phone off 0% power.
some WP7 roms also have some quirks charging.
search should pull up lots on this & some work-arounds too.

Os Windows
Could be totally discharged, so much so that charging can't start.
Try..
Battery out, USB in and connected to wall charger, battery back in, leave 20 mins. See if charging starts.
Or, if you have an old USB cable, (doesn't need to be micro USB, any USB lead will do) cut end off, bare red and black, put USB into wall charger, battery out, hold red to + black to - on battery for 1 minute,,, try battery in phone.
Shouldn't the orange light be on?
Also if the phone is off shouldn't the orange light be also on?
(with the power charge usb on)
When in MAGLDR you will NOT see the power led.
If you let your phone totally die and can't start it boot to MADLDR and let it sit for 10-15 minutes to charge first.
Couldn't tell you about the last question. If USB is plugged in on my HD2 the phone will not power off, only reboot.
I will try to answer your last question with my HD2 running XBmod. When the phone is off and I connect it to charger, it will turn on at once, and then charge. It's not likely that with magldr you can charge the phone while it's off.
Somebody says in another thread which I cannot remember, that magldr does not allow turn-off-charging. Please correct me if I mess something here.
Hello,
Well it seems that my phone USB port is a bit loose or something like that..
Since the cable only charges it in a certain position.
Also I used a usb cable from a an LG phone and it's not good at all...
Didn't charge the battery, and yes the light of charge is on...
Like in the car when I plug it, the charging is almost nothing...
This also happens with usb charge on the pc...
But this is what I notice...
I'm not using the usb cable from htc.
The USB cable can be important regarding to charge. I have a Nokia Micro USB cable and another one just standard and nameless, maybe from BlackBerry og Samsung.
The nokia one with my HTC charger giver only around 50 mah when charging, observed by using HTC Battery Tool. It takes a whole night to charge battery full, and some times even still not full when I get up on the morning. And if I use the phone while charging, Battery Tool even shows that my phone is consuming battery.
The nameless one charge my phone with 500-800 mah and it takes exactly 2 hours to charge a battery from 30% remaining power to full. So I never use the Nokia one to charge my phone.
Need to install that Battery tool!
I had a similar issue, I cant be bothered pulling the cable apart but I suspect that a generic 2 wire usb "charging" cable wont cut the mustard, it possibly needs to be a 4 wire connection, all be it it only needs two of them to charge
as for your other questions, its all to do with MAGLDR
if the phone is OFF and you plug it in it "should" charge yes, but it wont if you have MAGLDR installed
If the phone is in MAGLDR or the bootloader for that matter, it will charge, all be it the light wont come on.
what isn't clear is if in bootloader or MAGLDR the device is capable of autocut off, ie, turning the charge to trickle charge once full, so my advice is that when charging in bootloader or magldr, only do it for 20 min or so then boot to your OS and continue the charge from there.
Well I now have adocking station to recharge the battery, got also a new battery...
The battery recharging is solved...
But the usb on my phone is ****ed up... since I need to "bend" the phone a bit for the light to turn on, but it only charges at Battery Current 250 - 300....
Ah well it's not a perfect world...
It sucks a bit that WP7 consumes the battery so fast...

Just don't bend it anymore or the USB will fall off the board. Data connection may become impossible to repair depending on the damage. And you will have yourself a permanent windows phone.
