[Q] My DroidX won't turn back on

I went to sleep two days ago and my droid ran out of battery, i have try to recharge it , but i only get a green light and wont turn back on ,,, I have removed the battery also the sd card hold home and power and nothing seams to work !!! any suggestions that i need to try before taking it to exchange
How long did you charge it for? The DX wont turn back on if the battery completely dies and hasn't been charged to at least 20% I believe.

i recharge it for abt 8hrs.. i just came back from two differnt verizon stores and they dont know about it or how to fix it.. they say might have to get another ...
Did they try a new battery??? Replace the battery, first, before replacing the X...
yeah coz no body has try a new battery on it .. im gonna have to go to best buy and see if they have one there even tech at verizon they said dont have battery for that phone there and they should right .. .. ill try a new battery if that doesnt help then im gonna have to order a new phone
Thanks guys just came back from verizon store .. and Finally somebody did what Str0ntium and i want them to do .. try a new battery .. my was out of juice so that why it wouldnt power up or recharge.. .. different Person at Verizon store tried the battery from his own DX .. and my phone turned on . once the was done , he let the battery charge for like 5% on his phone . then put it back on my phone . witch turned on and started charging normally .., im thinking on buying the xtended battery .. they said might give me like xtra 2 more hours .... will see what happens... .. i just got frustrated that to have somebody to try a new battery took me like 3 days .. very poor custumer service thats all i can say ..
I had the same thing happen to me a month ago. Can't find the link right now where I learned this right now but you have to do some jerry riggin to fix this. You have to take a usb cable and cut off the end that would plug into the device, find the red and black wires and wedge them between the proper terminals between your phone and the battery. If done right you can get power to the device to turn it on. Once on just remove the usb fast and plug into a normal outlet. Had to do this a few times and if done right works like a charm.

I ll keep that in mind in case i ran in to something similar .. but hopefully i wont have to do it .. hehehe !!
Dead DroidX
If you allow your Droidx to fully discharge, it does not have enough power during inital recharge off a computer connected USB to get the recoginition that the device needs to be charged vs data tx. Just use your wall charger (Dumb Charging Unit w/no data line) no need to modify your cord. Just do not let get com[letely discharged and you will not have this problem.

I saw something similar but instead of wedging it in between the phone and battery I used some electrical tape and stuck the red and black wires from the usb cable directly to the battery. I let it sit for an hour and then I was good to go.

Next time charge it on the wall charger instead of a USB cable...
Yep happened to me a few weeks ago... I had a broken bootloader which you have to have in order to charge the phone. I just sacrificed a usb cable, I cut the ugly side with the usb-b form factor, and used a couple paperclips to pin the battery down. It took about two and a half hours to get full... just remember red on red, black on black.
DroidX x2, Droid2, Droid1, DInc, and LG Ally x2 makes for a big Verizon bill.
Bad droid, no Doughnut!

[Q] HTC HD2 died and now won't charge.

Hi,
Since yesterday my phone (leo/hd2) died and when ever i tried to charge it it would go in to a boot loop then back to normal booting (as in wp7 bootscreen) but now a day later it won't even charge! I have checked the pins tried different cables and still nothing. Also there is a small red tab on the bottom of the battery near the connecter which used to be pink.
Maybe your battery is completely drained? If so, check here.
it won't even turn on so i can't perform this > does this mean it's dead?
have you tried a different battery because you have used a WP7 rom and when the battery drains out it can not be charged ( unless charged on another phone) so i recommend you using a different phone to charge your battery or get another battery into your phone
Thanks, i'll try that now. But does the red tab mean anything?
Hi,
I have this very often. Problem is that your battery is completely drained and the phone doesn't have enough power to start.
This is how I solve it:
start charging your phone
when it switches on, keep pressing the power on/off button
you'll arrive in the magldr boot screen.
just wait for about 5 to 10 minutes
start windows phone (it's possible you'll have to remove your battery and put it back in your phone).
Voila WP7 starts without any problem.
good luck!
try an external battery charger/universal battery charger. (i recommend keeping one handy whenever u r messing with wp7)
Lol, Now the phone won't charge at all! :O wtf! Piece of crap HD2 >

Piece of crap?
Whoa, cannot agree there...
If you carefully follow all the tutorials, hints and tips here at xda, HD2 runs fast and smooth with several OS´s of your choice.
However, there is still a possibility that your device is defective. Or the cable. Or whatever. But that doesn´t make HD2 a piece of crap in general.
Lol, its the charging port and a defective rom once i fix both i will have to go back to miui ;( Is there any rom which allows charging while the phones off.
Hi,
It's not the rom, it's magldr...
Koen
What do you mean? Do i need to downgrade? Can you charge while it's off?
if u have 1.13 and u can reach the magldr screen then plug it in,quickly switch it to usb masstorage mode. but dont keep it there for long as the screen will be awake all the time.
try keeping it that way for 15-20 mins,it shld give u enuf juice to boot it up

what he meant was that,its not the ROM's fault that u cant charge it while the phone's off,
you see,whenever u plug in a switched off phone,it quickly boots into the magldr mode,before booting ANY OS( or any version of any rom ),and thats y it wont charge while switched off(unless future magldr provides this function)....the only reason WinMo cld charge your phone while switched off is that it dint need MAGLDR before booting
try the usb mass storage method if possible,it works
hope i helped ya
dont forget to thank all the hardworking developers
I always have a problem with aftermarket chargers and charging through USB. It won't chargers in both scenarios....any body has an idea on that?
When my HD2 completely drains i just attach the (original) charger and it will start cycling boot...but eventually the battery will be charged.

[Q] HTC HD2 won't turn on<don't recognise Charger or USB

Hi,I have a Android gingerbread 2.3,haspl v.3,MAGLDR113,it's second time my htc block and dont want to restart from the buton,i have remove the battery and it dosnt want to turn on ,there is no screen,the battery was charget,but the red light don't light when i plug the cabel,in my PC dont recognise usb,nothing and the phone,i try for 1 day to remove a battery,but no result,1st time when it happens it work,but for a week i can't use it,Sorry For my English,Some ideas what can i do before i took it back in the store
sounds like it could be a simple flat battery. when magldr is installed you cannot charge the phone unless android is running, so when it is off it does not charge.
if you can try another battery, or your battery in a winmo hd2, that will tell you if its teh battery.
If you have a spare usb cable (any type, doesnt have to be a hd2 micro usb cable) cut end off, bare red and black, hold red to + and black to - on teh battery for about a minute, which should give it enough power to charge.
Also check very carefully that you dont have a bent battery pin from all teh battery in/out. they bend easily.
i hava a Bat charger and charge the bat all night,and the morning it show me that bat is charget,put it on the phone,but nothing ... cant turn on
Maybe battery is dead. Do you own a volt meter an can check the voltage provided by the battery? It shoud show up about 4 volt.

i took the bat to my friend with devace to check the battery,and everything is OK,but the phone didn't turn on,Can i reinstal the Android ?and how can i do it
Is there a program that can connect to the phone and erase everything
To wipe the phone install the HD2 toolkit, you can download it here.
It includes every tool needed for maintaining your HD2.
Be sure to install the drivers!
Start the program and press the Task29 button, follow the instructions provided. When it's finished your HD2 will be fully wiped, so you would need to reinstall everything.
Do so by doing a MAGLDR repartition. After that choose MAGLDR update recovery to flash the Clockworkmod recovery.
Then go into the Clockworkmod recovery and flash your rom.
Now your HD2 should be fully wiped
BUT! If your PC doesn't even recognize your HD2, and you can't even get to the bootloader screen by pressing and holding both volume down and the "end call" button. Then it's probably a hardware failure.

Magldr repartition flashes cwm so no need for the update recovery step. That's for, well the clue is in the name,,, updating the cwm version on an already partitioned instal.
Okay, thanks for clarifying that!
Didn't know it worked like that, I only use CLK.

I'll trying to charge battery but i don't have a table battery chager.
Could you please repeat me what you did, since I didn't get the first part, what did you put on your router (what kind of router please)?
I've tried using my phone with another HD2 phone's battery which is working (and which also started with my own battery?!) but my own phone wouldn't start at all with the other battery...
The battery wasn't fully charged, but did it have to be, if so how long should I charge the battery with the cut USB cable for it to be charged enough please?!
TIA
P.S. I've tried a voltmeter on my battery and it said 4.14V (should it be 4V exactly?) and should I even try the cut USB charge trick again (since I've tried another phone's working battery)?

Ok if I understand you correctly you have tried your battery in a working HD2 and it worked. Then you tried the battery from the working HD2 in your device but your device still did not boot up. If this is correct I do not feel your battery is the problem, but still check the battery pins on your device to make sure none of them are not slightly bent and not making contact properly.
Also if you can provide more info on what you may have done to cause this or what happened when your device reached the state it is currently in. This info can help others and me help you better.
I have a similar problem.
The phone won't start, it gets to the white htc screen sometimes but quits within a fraction of a second.
This has been so since the first Android boot hung (I suspect I have not followed the steps accurately enough...). I have charged, decharged and recharged the battery using the suggested USB-cable technique, but this was of no aid so far, so it's not the battery. Pins and all's fine.
It's someone else's phone, too, so it would be rather unfortunate if I bricked it.
Are there any other common reasons for this behavior? Most tutorials rely on a PC connection, but as it does not recognize such a thing, that's a bit of a problem.
Finally the same problem here.
Battery status was about 70% and running smoothly (WinMO Custom Rom) since installed.Unlocked the Screen and tried to start programs.
The Icons were lightened up but nothing happened.Tried to softrestart...Nothing happened.
Removed and reinserted the Battery.
=> Not turning on.
-another fully charged Battery => nothing
-charging on Charger => nothing not even charging light
-plugged into (running) pc => nothing not even charging light
-5 hours in the fridge => nothing
-charging over night => nothing
Any hints ?
Thx for the goot work around here and greets from Germany !
Sebastian
PS If anyone got one to offer => contact me. Dont like those situations
Bad news!
Seems like your MB is gone...:crying:
Maybe one chance left for a JTAG attempt to a local service shop...
thats what i was afraid of
at least it happend only one hour after i made a backup
thx for the reply !

[Q] URGENT!!! someone reply ASAP !!

as d title says i am in real need of help -
my x5 was working fine wid crazymiui 7-14 version but 2day phone stopped charging . i had some problems earlier but shaking d charger lil bit or using pc to charge worked well .
2day when i connected d charger phone showed charging ( led was also green ) but d battery percentage was stuck . it was same 5-6 % after atleast an hour of charging . i tried various methods but all in vain , pc dtects d phone n usb debugging is also on but no increment in battery. everything else is working fine . i even tried my blackberry charger but same result. den i thought of switching off phone and den charging , battery icon appeared after huawei logo n it showed charging but when i powerd it up battery was same 4-5 % ( chargd for an hour ) den i thought dere might be some problem wid charging jack n charged d battery on a local shop . ( there is one special type of charger which directly charges any battery. u directly have to plug in d battery in d charger ) but dat didnt help either .
now i am thinking of taking it to service centre ( still under warrantly . 10 months ) but the problem is my x5 is rooted n running 4.0 , as soon dey see this they will void my warranty n i cannot install official as dere is no battery . even if i try wid so less charging dere is stong probability of bricking d mobile as i would be dead while installing d rom .
what should i do now ? someone pls reply ASAP . i mean how can battery be dead suddenly . thats impossible
i really appreciate u read such detailed thread . thanx a lot .
Occam's razor prevails.
There are three possibilities.
Either the battery is FUBAR or;
The charge indicator is incorrect or;
There is an internal hardware problem
The simplest explanation is that the battery is bad.

as others said your phones usb input may be dead, i have some ideas;
1. try to charge battery with a charger that have output of 1a 5v. (you already tried this,if i read your post right)
2. charge with a battery charger (the ones that you directly put the battery in it ,some of them are universal,have two pins)
3. connect your phone to the computer without a battery if it boots your phones battery is dead.(I think this is good news)
4.if none of help above (above,right?) your phones battery measurement is wrong,charge it like 1 hour and du a complete restore or flash another rom.
have nice day,i hope this post will help you. (sorry for my bad english,i havent practised for months)

A5 Blue screen of death and now actually death

hello im doughlas ..
the story :
i remove the SD card directly without going through the settings, then immediately turns blue and can not be turned off and getting hot from the back cover , and I wait for the phone turns itself off and I tried to charge its battery back.... im not getting anything , no blink LED charging , no detect on USB mode , or anything..
im tryin ask to several technician in my town , some say the Internal , LCD , and batteries.
but im not sure with all guesses so im open up my LCD by my self and tryin to change my LCD with the new one , but still i have nothing ..
is anyone having the same problem with mine ??
do you recognize what is the real problem is ??:crying::crying::crying:
regards
Doughlas
Samsung recommend holding down the LOWER volume and power keys simultaneously for 7 seconds and it worked for me on my A5. No more BSOD (Blue Screen Of Death.)
Make sure the phone is charged.
How does A series have LED charging indicator?
