I notice that the led light never turns on until its blinking orange. Is that a known issue?

Mine goes blinking orange to solid orange, and then eventually green.
the LED only turns on when charging and changes from orange to green when it's charged 100%. It flashes orange when the dock battery is below 15%, whether or not it's plugged in. (or is it 10%?) The white LED on top is for Caps Lock.

Ya its 10% I was just hoping the side led would always be on so I can get a rough estimate of the charge during school

Has anyone else noticed when you plug in the Phone to be recharged, occasionally the 'red' indicator does not come on or disappears?
It's now happened to me several times ~ I plug the Phone in for a recharge, initially the red light comes on then after a few seconds it goes out leaving no indication if it's charging or when it's complete.

"Wiggle" the charger around and see if the charge light goes on and off!

Could it due to bad physical connection?
No guys.
I'Ve cheched all connections.
Besides, if I leave it plugged in whilst there is no light showing and switch off the Phone the red charging light then comes on.

Well this is now really starting to bug me.
I've carried out a Hard Reset thinking something was interferring with the charge light procedure but even on a default machine with the device running the red light simply does not come on.
Swith the Phone off, then connect and the red light appears.
So.... when my machine is running I don't get the indicator (but it is charging I know because after leaving it for 30mins I've checked and sure enough it's charging).
Any other ideas???
My Trinity does this when overheating, it stops charging and blinks the LED. Unplug for 10 minutes and replug.

Now that's an answer I was not expecting...... Thanks tnyynt, I'll give that a go on my next charge cycle.
Edited:
No... that didn't work.... but thanks all the same.
I have now resigned myself to the fact if I want to see the red charging light the only way is to first power down the Phone, then connect to the mains electric and then the red charge light comes on.
If I want I can then switch the Phone back on again whilst charging until the green charged light shows.

I just got the Huawei IDEOS X5. Once the battery ran low, I plugged it to the charger. The problem is that the Led Status Indicator (above the screen on the front of the phone) doesn't become orange (it is green). According to the instructions this Led should be orange while the charge is in progress, and become green once the phone is fully charged. This behavior does not follow the info described in the manual of the phone.
Has anyone had the same problem? Do you know why this is happening? Should I return the phone back to the seller?
Thanks

Led burns green, when the battery is above 90% or so. Under that should be orange. Sometimes when you plug in the charger, it takes time even to start charging (Led is green then). I'd say try to observe more
I thought the same when I first start charging my device, but when the device was fully charged I realized that the led(which seems to me green) wasn't.
The orange color of the led it's not so orange(like was on other devices) but is more close to green(again the green on other devices). On ideos the the green led it's not so light and yellowish, it's more deep like trees green.
And what sanpsa says happens also after 90%
Thank you guys. You were 100% right both!
Dunno, whether it depends of soft or not, but when battery below 15% (or 10%) LED should be red. For mine device it's so.

I left it like that all night and when I tried to turn it on it just goes to the acer screen for 10 seconds then goes blank

I've always wondering about the various power button light colors as I cannot find any consistency, and the manual doesn't give any explanation about the different modes. When not on the charger, I only seem to get a blinking white light when there is some sort of notification. On the charger, I think I've see a blinking orange, blinking white, and solid orange states. No clue to any of the reasons for the different states.
Tbh, it should stay orange when it's charging. So it sounds like there's a problem with charging, either because your charger is busted or your battery is.

This is correct.
When its off no light the device is on
When its white the tab is sleeping
Blinking white its sleeping but a app is awake using network(white blinking network use)
Orange blinking is charging.
If its flashing red green and blue. RUN ITS A BOMB.Teasing
This is in the PDF you can d/load from acer website.
If im wrong I know its close thanks for reading.
I just tried booting into recovery and it did the text at the top then gave me an android guy with the exclamation mark inside him

Not sure what you mean by the above.if you have default recovery and no update.zip on your sd card this is totally normal.nothing thee to flash.
What page of the PDF does it explain this? I looked it over and cannot find an explanation on the light colors. The one I got from the site is User Manual_Acer_1.0_A_A.pdf

I will have to look. Its in the repair manual.I think I got it from a thread here actually come think about it.if I can find the file ill post it
here is what mine does,
when it stays red or orange it charges
when it blinks orange it doesnt charge becuase i leave it there for like an hour and the percentage is still the same
and when not plugged in it does the white light and is all good
so i have no idea what to do
Mine does orange when charging, white when done charging, occasionally white when asleep and off when using.
Just done some testing with different adapters.
Orange not blinking when charging correctly = adapter OK (enough tension and amps)
If adapter is too small (less than 12v or can't output 1.5amps), then it blinks orange.
My notification light is alternating between green and orange and I have no clue why..
My battery is low but it should just blink orange for that.
I've done some research and they sat the battery is overheating, the battery is not hot at all so I'm doubting that is the issue.
I'm running ICS currently.
any ideas of what this is.
Also, I can check to see if it's a notification as the LCD is busted until I get it fixed, it's just driving me nuts.
Most probably you have a notification so the LED alternates between red for low battery and green for the notification. It's what it does on mine and I'm on ICS also (I2IEAILiiTY's hybrid)

I bought a replacement battery (not original) and everytime I try charging it the
LED start flashing form green to orange and putting back the old original battery
charges just fine. How do I reset or make it charge it?
So my phone is doing quite a weird thing. Let me go from the start.
I was waiting to finish a TV Show to check my voicemail, but every minute or so my phone would buzz, but wouldn't show any notifications. So when the show finished, I went to check the voicemail, but the phone was out of batteries. No problem, it was at 4 percent last time I looked, it must have just gone through that last bit of battery quick, maybe it had to do with the weird vibrating. So I plugged it in and went to the bathroom.
When I came back, it was charging with the red LED on iirc. I pressed the power button and the big battery icon came up and showed it was charging, so I held down the power button to turn it on and went to the kitchen while it booted up. When I came back though, it wasn't booted up, and the red LED was flashing.
This is the weird part though. All those red LED of death threads say the LED was flashing on and off, red to black. Mine is flashing red to red. Like a bright red to a slightly dimmer red. If I hold down the power button for a while, it starts flashing on and off red, but faster than I've seen it before, like when the battery gets completely discharged.
Does anyone know what is going on?
TL;DR: My phone is flashing a bright red to dim red LED while it's plugged in, instead of the normal on-off red led. It won't turn on. Help!!
How long have you had it charging? And is it charging though a wall charger or usb?
If it's been over two hours, have you tried turning the phone on when unplugged?

Yeah, eventually after a whole bunch of different combinations I was able to turn the phone on and get it charged up ok. Thanks!
