It won't work with usb. are you using the wall charger?
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
Yeah it's being charged from the wall using the apple usb wall plug.
I recommend only charging the phone when you're able to unplug it from the wall. The x10 doesn't seem to like trickle charging so you're better off keeping track rather than letting the battery cycle like 3 times while you're sleeping.
Ok i seem to have resolved it. I removed the apple usb and replaced it with the original. When it turned on again I plugged the mini usb down towards the battary which then stated that the phone was charging. If i knock it it will stop charging and I will have to do it again. Guessing fualty? by my means or its own?
Sounds like you weren't getting enough voltage out of the Apple USB charger (which makes no sense, but...) or your micro USB port is screwy.
I think it was the port, I tried diffrent micro usb leads to no avail. I put it into repair with o2 today =/2 weeks wait now though,
When running n163, my charger (twice) stopped working until I rebooted. The odd symptom was that the "n" was green, right down to a low-battery shutdown, even when the USB end of the cable was unplugged.
The NC itself acted as if the cable was unplugged, even when plugged into a USB port.
It hasn't happened under n165, but that's only since this morning.
These were some USB changes recently, weren't there?
Thanks!

It happened to me again just now. I'm running n177 now, and I'd been using my NC off and on the charger all morning. I plugged in with the gauge at about half, the plug light went green, and I got no lightning bolt on the gauge.
A reboot restored normal charging.

Same cable works fine after reboot, didn't even unplug it for the reboot. The light changed color midway through the boot.

I had this happen to me too. Put it on the charger last night right before I went to bed. Woke up to a green 'n' but the battery was down 6%. Unplugged & replugged the charger, still a green 'n' but not charging. Reboot got an orange 'n' and it's finally charging.
Running Nightly 174.
I am seeing a bit of bizarre behavior with Nightly 166. On two units, when I power down, and plug in the charging cord, the unit boots up. I have had to press the power button to get the screen to go dark, and it will charge faster than if I had not done so.
Also, I have experienced once or twice, an issue of putting the unit under charge only to have the charge level reported as low, but, strangely, it felt like the unit was warm, like the battery had undergone charging.
A friend's Nook with 166, he claimed when he put the unit on a charge, it kept cycling screen on/off. He was using a non-OEM cable, but the proper AC adapter.
Does the unit have to wake itself? Does the OS assist in charging the device? Is there a known issue with %Charge being displayed?
I had Nightly 177 loaded but backed it out because the Market wasn't working.

That's normal behavior. Something about preventing Sleep of Death.

Can't trust non-OEM cables; there're extra conductors in the B&N cable for faster charging.

Yes; look for PBD, Premature Battery Death.
Turning USB host mode on and off affects my problem, but it doesn't help it any.

Sounds like the same issue. I find that if it's unplugged when I boot, it just doesn't charge, and the NC never notices when I insert or remove the charger cable, the lightning bolt never changes. Also, I've lost USB storage mode altogether, a real pain.

Well, it turns out that this whole problem was the charge cable. I had satisfied myself that it wasn't the cable with a visit to the store earlier, but I think that was before I realized that the "plugged in" state never changed after boot.
The fact that the plug could make the NC itself so confused about the state of the power supply is really startling. By the end, the light on the cable was changing color when I powered up.

Battery Status Wonky....
Ok. Reading through this I seem to have a similar but not identical situation.
Running CyanogenMod-7-08312011-Nightly-encore with kernel 2.6.32.9.
Nothing special about the install.
Few days ago Nook took a nap and didn't wake up. Thought it was bricked but after fussing with a combination of pressing power and the "N" button finally got it to boot up like if nothing had happened.
Problem? When the battery started to discharge after its nap of death it got to 16% and stopped. Doesn't move. Perpetually at 16%.
If I plug it is to charge it the bottom gets warm, status says it is charging and the cable changes color like it is supposed to, (orange to green), just like it were fully charged but the Battery Status stays at 16%.
Bought a new cable from B&N and same thing. Battery Status stuck at 16%. Nook feels warm, (as if battery has been charged), and the cable changes color correctly, (orange to green).
At one point I even took the cable out and the status indicator showed that the battery was still being charged but no change from the 16%.
Very annoying as I keep getting notifications that I need to recharge since the battery is at 16% but I can leave it on for HOURS and it keeps working fine.
Any ideas or should I reformat to stock and get a new one from B&N?

That sounds like classic Sleep of Death, and is most likely unrelated.

At this point, I trust the cable light over the software to reflect reality, but mine would change color as I wiggled it because it was flaking out.

Did you power-cycle while plugged in? I did several boot-to-CWR while fiddling with things, and wound up with not enough power to boot when I got to the store. Try full power down, insert new cable, power up. I'm pretty sure that the software has a role in this.

What's reporting 16%? Battery monitor and the status bar (just the icon) both reported consistent levels throughout, except for being always plugged in.

See what happens with a power cycle while plugged in.

Okay. Decided to try and discharge this puppy completely and they let it charge all the way up again and see what the Battery Status indicators look like.
As of right now, (12:24 am on Wednesday 9/14/2011), my Nook has been on since boot for 7:22:14 and the Battery Voltage still shows 3613 mV with a Battery Level of 16%.
BTW Battery Temp is 27.8 C and Battery Status shows as Discharging.
How long this sucker is going to last is anyone's guess. Hopefully by tomorrow it will be dead and I can start charging it to see if the battery status goes back to normal.
I got my nexus 4 on Tuesday morning, plugged it in to the charger, waited until it reached 100%, then inserted my sim card, turned it on, upgraded through OTA from 4.2 to 4.2.2 and then set up my usual things. I discharged the battery from 100% to 16%, then I turned it off and plugged to the charger. I turned it on when it was at 95%, and unplugged from the charger because I had to get out of home. This morning it was roughly at 30%, then I turned it off and plugged it to the charger. Later I turned it on, it was at 93%, so I waited until 100% before unplugging. It stood ages at 99%, so I turned it off. A little bit later I tried to turn it on, and when I pushed the power button it showed that the battery was charged, then the image disappeared and the led began blinking in red until I released the power button. I unplugged it, then powered on, and it booted, everything as normal: but the battery was on 94%. I plugged it in and after one minute it was already at 99%. I turned it off, then pressed the power button, but same behaviour: image, then red led blinking. So I plugged the phone to my galaxy nexus charger, waited for a little, and then same behaviour again. So I unplugged it, turned it on, and when I was in the system I saw that the battery was on 100%.
Now the battery is normally discharging while using it, no strange values.
What should I do now? Should I let it discharge until it turns off, or should I never let it discharge until it turns off? And should I charge it with the stock charger or the galaxy nexus charger? I'll be grateful to everyone makes me know what he thinks.
Excuse me for my poor English and for how much I wrote, I would make things clear as possible.

I am sorry for my lazy, I only skim through your post, but I do read the question.
I read somewhere in this 4rum that the Nexus4's battery can be charged at anytime you want.
FOr me, I usually use the phone until 20-30%, then I turn my phone off and charge.
For my brother, he charge without any pattern, and he doesn't turn the phone off when charging.
For my own opinion, you shouldn't use the phone until the batter is empty.
Notice the same thing 3 times with my Nexus. Have searched for a answer to this but no one has a answer I guess or just ignore it. I just power up without it being plug in ..
R: My nexus 4 refuses to turn on while attached to the charger
Now it's at 13%, i'll plug it in the next 10 minutes, then i'll see what will happen this time. Very strange indeed.. I'm only a little bit scared about the "red led death" i read about here and there over the internet.

I never turn mine off. I charge it all night every night when I sleep. Stays on.
Send it back? Rma?
as above i charge my device every night, its never powered off,. is the device hot while charging not like usual warm temp, but very hot that the device detects an issue?
the battery stats are wiped each time its charged, i guess you have some internal failure, battery not being detected after you disconnect from mains or reported as flat, faulty, unreliable source
its best not to fully discharge the battery but maybe you should use it till it powers off then recharge, any charger is fine, but you dont need anything higher than 1amp
i would return it, would suck to have an issue away from home.
when i charge it goes 90% in few seconds when i unplug the charger it goes to 5% in few sec then it shutdowns..
i tried to flash stock rom but no help..
what should i do..?
busted battery? how old is it?

I had this. It was not the battery. I replaced it. Wiped battery stats. When you charge does it keep stopping charging?

when i plug the carger it goes 15% 30% 50% then 100% in few seconds...
when i unplug it shutdowns..
I have a similar problem
My battery was getting bad for a while, so I bought a new one off Amazon USA (I hope it's real). However since I put the new battery in my phone and switched to CyanMobile, my battery has been all over the place.
I can't get through a 9 hour work shift on 2G speeds (where I may glance at my phone 2 or 3 times). As well as the battery running down quickly, it'll jump from say 80% to 60% or 50% to 30%.
It does this both when charging and discharging. i.e. the phone just died. I plug it in to charge whilst switched off, and the screen immediately shows 20% charge. I turn it on whilst plugged in, and by the time it boots up it shows 60%!
I've tried deleting battery stats in recovery mode, and using a battery calibration app from the market...but nothing
What to do?
Good morning. Yesterday night i put my nexus into charging and when i woke up this morning the phone was dead. I have no reaction on any combination of the keys. I tried to remove a battery but i seems do not help me at all :crying: my phone is rooted and I'm using a LINAROBEAN Rom by tackleberry_crash last 2 or 3 months. I tried to connect my mobile into pc by i've got no reaction. Just charging led is on and thats it. PS. When i connect my phone into charger battery level was about 58%. Any ideas what might to be happened? i"m in UK. Just in case: how the servicing plocdure lookes like, and where i need to send my mobile?
If charging led is on, try and let it charge again, for an hour or so using wall plug or alternatively by computer. Then try to turn it on.
If it never turns on after you tried charging, maybe get a replacement battery?
I just came back from the work. Phone was in a charger about 10hrs (i used a diferent charger frommy htc). phone is still dead
