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

I put my phone (T-Mobile MDA VARIO) on charge last night before I went to bed, nothing strange about that, but this morning the phone was completely dead ,wouldnt charge, no lights, wouldnt boot etc.
After searching this forum I found what I thought was the fix for a dead battery (3 AA batteries/wires etc) I did this and the phone now boots and says its chargeing, but only if I charge using USB, it wont do anything if I use the wall mains charger
If I take off the wires/AA bateries, the phone shuts down and wont charge, but as soon as I put the wires/batteries back on it works as normal.
While the phone is running I looked at the power application & it shows the battery chargeing, but wont hold any charge at all
obviously I cant walk around with 3AA batteries & 2 wires attatched to my phone.
does anyone have any suggestions please
cheers
Phil
I'd look into a new battery...
If this were a notebook battery I would say the cells had collasped.
exact same thing happened to me last night. I think there is an issue with charging the wizard when its off, like it doesn't know when to stop charging and it overloads the battery. Do you happen to have the link for that 3 batteries and the 2 wires trick, I want to give it a go. Thanks.
i was working today and the phone died on me. Havent charged it in days. I came home, tried to turn it on real quick, and it turned on and then off before it booted up, then i was like ah hell ill plug it in. plugged it in it started to boot so i went to wash my car. hour and a half later i came back to grab my phone and its dead. no light, no anything, just dead, unplug it, tried to start it. dead. nothing, no light. I thought ok, cable broke. so its plugged into my laptop via usb and still dead. any ideas? its flashed with wm6 im leaving the country monday and i need this working!!!
I've had this problem before. I just left it plugged in and eventually (after a few hours) it started charging.
Are you using the original MDA charger? I had a similar problem when using a motorola charger...
Hi there,
First I apologize about my poor English, I am Brazilian and should speak portuguese, but this is the best forum ever... so I'll try my English
My story:
Four days ago my 1,5 years old 9100 running the WM6 NTS was working perfectly, the best device I ever had. But, at night, I removed the battery to get the SIM card and then I put the battery back but did not turn on the phone. I used the SIM card in another phone during the night. I was afraid to lost it.
In the morning, I removed the battery again, put back the SIM card and then the battery. When I tried to turn it on, nothing happened, just like as if it was without any power. I was surprised, because I had fully charged the battery in the night before and before I first remove the battery, it was about 80% of power. So, I decided to try to recharge again, but there was no lights on. I left it charging for about 10 minutes and got nothing.
So, as I was leaving home, I put the 9100 in my pocket, after a few minutes I tried to turn it on again and it worked. The battery meter was showing about 80%.
Ok then… It worked well on Monday. But when I woke up yesterday morning (Tuesday), the phone seemed to have self-restarted during the night. So, I typed my password and it started working well again. I checked the battery meter and it was showing about 40% of charge. After a few minutes the phone seems to be totally dead. I tried to charge it again and after 2 hours I got nothing, it was still dead, did not turn on and there were no lights on.
Later on that day, I got a multi-meter and checked the battery tension. With the positive on my left I could check that measuring the power with the wires on the 1st “slot” and on the 3rd on, I get 3.47V. Measuring the 1st with the 4th I get 3.63V and measuring the 1st with the 5th or 6th I get 3.75V. Check what I mean at http://webtennis.rg3.com.br/qtek_9100/battery.gif.
I tried to remove the battery, then put it back and then turn it on again… It started, but in a few seconds, when was showing the OS, SPL, etc… it went off. I tried that again; it started, loaded the OS and went off. Once again I tried this, but with the power cable on, so it started but in seconds was off again.
So I thought “that might be a bug, maybe if I run the update utility it will work”. I started the phone in the bootloader mode, but before I connect the USB cable and start the RUU the 9100 went off. A few more times tring to remove the battery and starting it again, it went off and never came back again!!
I plugged the power cable on the wall and on the phone and there were no lights on, but I could feel the battery a bit warmer, just like it used to get. I left on the wall all night long and today in the morning still nothing. I removed the battery for about 30 minutes and got nothing, neither the screen with the OS, SPL, IPL…
Now I am despaired, don’t know what to do, no clues. I am in Brazil and don’t know where I can take to be repaired and have no plans to get back to Canada or Europe for the next 3 months.
Can you help me with this problem? I love my phone and want it working again.
Thanks for all your help.
Battery problem...?
It seems as thought you may be having a problem with your battery, not your phone. Try buying a battery off eBay, they are pretty cheap, and that should tell you what the problem actually is.
Or if you know anyone that has a wizard, try your battery in their device. If the problem is still appearing, then you will know that you just need a new battery.
Battery or charger ?
I agree with zakhir_n, it sounds like a battery issue not the phone. My friends MDA battery died after 2 months of use, so you can never be sure. We swapped batteries and revealed it was his battery not taking a charge.
Next check that you are using the original charger. I went away on business and grabbed the nearest charger for my 8125. Needless to say I grabbed a Motorola charger and it refused to charge the dead battery. Make sure you have the original charger, as it MUST say 1000ma or 1Amp output on the plug. The Motorola one I used was only 500ma or .5Amp and it was unable to recharge a dead 8125 (MDA) battery.
New status: WORKING
Hi there,
Thanks for all the posts.
Well, I checked my charger and it is a 1A 5V and my battery gets 100% of charge.
This is what I did:
Fully charged the battery, removed it for about 1 day an then I turned it on. Surprise!!! It was working and worked for 20 minutes and went off again e seemed to be dead.
Once more I the same thing but this time I flashed it with an official ROM. Fully charged the battery and removed for about 1 day. When I tried to turn it on, it worked as it was new.
So I flashed it with the WM6 Core 2.0n. It worked perfectly. When the battery got 80% of power, it restarted itself for several tines.
Now I bought a new battery and it is working very well, no problems till now. Guess you were right… I really had to change the battery.
Thanks for all the help and sorry about my English!!!
Regards,
Arthur
Nooooooooooooooooooooo
Hi there… Got the worst birthday present ever!!! Today I woke up and my QTek 9100 wasn’t working.
I got a new battery, when I put it on my phone it was 54% of charge. I used it till it gets 13%, then I fully charged it with my computer’s USB cable. Used the phone for 1 day and the battery was again around 80% of charge (just like the other time). I put it on “flight mode” went to sleep. When I woke up……. it was not working anymore, I put back the old battery and got nothing.
Now it is with the new battery being charged with my wall charger (1A 5V), but there is no lights on.
I already tried to run the WM5, tried a new WM6, checked the charger, replaced the battery and none of this seems to solve my problem… Do you know what more I could try? Do you know where I can send it to fix in Brazil?
I don’t know what to do… I already sent e-mails to QTek and to HTC and after 1 week got no answer…
Thanks for all the help!!!
Hi friends my mobile htc fuze (at&t) is not switching on , actually last night I put my mobile in charging(at the time the battery level shows 2% ) then went to sleep. after that morning I woke up, unplugged the charging and I seen that it was switched off .then I try to switch it on but it won’t switching on and all. When I unplugging the charger my mobile was hot, then I removed the battery and kept it cool for 10 min, then tried for switching on but the same thing no reaction. I bought this mobile 2 years back, this is the first time am getting like this compliant. Can anybody help me with this compliant
Suggestions are Much appreciable........
maybe it's the charger getting messed up.
try charging your phone via usb fromyour computer for abit. if your phone starts up, that would mean that your charger is messed up and you should get a new one. goodluck
So my SGS4 phone wont charge anymore!
- I went out on Sunday, and later came back home at night. I plugged in the phone and went to sleep.
The next day came over (Monday), in which my phone had full power and battery started draining for normal reasons. During the daytime, at one time, I noticed in the status bar, it said "T-mobile update" , I immediately lowered the status bar, but it was gone. Weird, I thought to myself as I didn't click any "yes" or "ok's", which I wouldn't press anyways. So the night came and I went to charge my phone to realize that it wont charge at all!!!
I tried:
- 3 different charges
- Charge by connecting it to PC (phone is not even detected)
- Let it plugged in all night powered off... woke up, still 2% batt. (Didn't charge)
I don't know what to do.
I might have to send it back to T-Mobile.
Info about my phone:
Rooted CF Autoroot.
No ROMs (Stock)

Have you tried turning it off and charge? See if the adapter pins are not broken on the phone?

Had a similar problem with s3. But it will super slow charge.. pc won't even detect but.
Samsung replaced the usb port and gave me brand new wall charger and usb cable. So get it serviced!

I'm sending the phone back to T-mobile.
My phone is rooted with CF-Autoroot (for the 9505).
Will I need to unroot, or change firmware????
Send it back. Unroot if you can.
where can I find the original firmware, or un-rooting way?
charge
Do you have another device to charge the battery? I wouldn't recommend trying to unroot your device without a battery with already 50%charge. Also, have you tried doing a battery pull for a few minutes to see if it will charge? I'd try doing a data wipe and factory reset before trying to unroot. You can find the stock firmware in the Android development forum. . just make sure to use the stock firmware instead of the prerooted firmware. I just worry that if you try to do a warranty claim, ttmobile might blame it on custom firmware and deny the claim... probably wouldn't happen but I'm overly cautious.
Try usb
After two monts, my S4 just stopped charging. Woke up one morning and saw that while plugged in all night, battery was at 40%, lower than when i plugged it in. I had been using a couple of old chargers and a dock...all had previously been working for a fairly speedy charge
So, plugging into a wall charger will not even get an acknowledgement from my phone, however, plugging into a turned on and charging laptop via USB will charge my phone. It takes longer to charge but works.
I am rooted and do not want to unroot and take my phone back to ATT unless i really have to. Hope to find a wall charger solution. Even the charger that came with the S4 is useless in the wall.
