My P8lite died while charging (was almost full). Does not turn on, leds off, even when I plug it in - nothing happens, does not heat up. Anyone had this problem? Maybe something broke inside?
Have you tried disconnecting the battery? Then try to plug in your charger.

Yes, right now. Nothing happens. Any other idea?
Went back to life out of nowhere! Maybe it needed to rest a couple of days... So weird!

so strange, i think this is not a fault of battery, because lithium polymer battery is really long lasting, have you connect your x1 to computer, please connect your x1 to charger and wait about 1 hour. but maybe it's the fault of mini usb port, can you sync your x1 before it happen? in your case, bring it up to guarantee service is the best solution, what did you do before the device turn off?
Leave it on the charger, it could take about 15 - 20 minutes to start charging if the battery completely died.
i used a wall charger, and a computer charger, still no luck...i wasnt doing anything, i was playing a game and shut the game off started browsing through the fone, and it just shut off after a few battery low warning sounds. but the red light goes on after a wall charger, but nothing when i try to turn it on, it doesnt turn on, and when i unplug it to try to turn the phone on, the side lights flash red...i have no idea whats goin on but i got the phone today and its pissing me off already i spent 680 on the phone for a peice of crap...

ah, you should keep it in the wall chager a bit longer, and don't use the computer charge at this time, when the battery complete die, you should keep it charge about 10 minutes before you can start it, don't worry, when you can see the flash light turn red, it's charging, wait a few minutes more, it's will work, just forget about it, go somewhere, when you comeback, push the power button:d

was had same problem.just leave it charged.i leave it charged into usb drive,and it needs 5h before he turn on.battery was completely dead,like probably you have too.just leave it charged throught the night.
Charge some time and then remove battery cover and try to reset. as u mentioned lights are flashing when u r trying to switch on so just reset.
The X1 of my colleague had the same problem and he had the battery replaced by the vendor, no questions asked as it was dead after only 2 days...
Charged without battery...

Hi, I got similar problem and I called the support guys.
They advised me to remove the battery and charge the phone for 30 min and charged with the battery for 1.5 hour.
He claimed is some 'internal battery' stuffs.
Anyway I tried and it works.
In addition, I charged the battery when the level hits a minimum of 20%.
So far so good
Good luck.

That Solution worked for me as well. I was in Germany with some navigation software to find my destination address. Than suddenly my phone died, I thought. So I was stuck somewhere in the middle of nowhere.
So my Hermes (SPV M3100) died some time ago...
The phones battery was not complete dried out (around 10% of energy was left) but I tried charging it. As soon as I connected the charger the phone turned off immidiatly and I was unable to turn it back on - there is no reaction from it.
What could be the problem? My pops tried fixing it but nothing irregular could be found...
Do any of the leds light up when the charger is plugged in?
Mike
No, there is no reaction from the phone in any way.
Then there is a good probability it's the internal fuse that's blown. (Assuming the charger is working OK)

Thanks I'll check it out.
Yesterday I had the same problem.
I was talking with my phone and suddenly it turned off, my battery was at 90%.
I try to have a reset but there is no reaction.
I plug in the charger but nothing happend.
What can I do?
Thank's
So I checked those and they're completely okey. Can there be anything else?
I was changing the frequency of my video card and the screen went blank and I had to reset my computer. After resetting my computer I looked at my phone (which had been plugged in and charging to my computer) and it was off. When I tried to turn it back on the screen flashed for maybe half of a second and went back off. I am using a HTC EVO 4G rooted with gingerbread 2.3 ROM

Sounds like for whatever reason, your battery may be completely dead. Maybe something weird happened when the computer reset...I'm not sure. Do you get a charging led when you plug the phone into the wall (A/C) charger? The USB from the computer isn't strong enough to charge the phone when the battery is completely dead, so you need to plug into the wall. I would charge it up for a while, and then try to turn it on again. If you don't get a charging led at all when you plug it in, I would try a battery that is known to be charged up if you have access to one. Good luck.
It also wouldn't hurt to try doing a battery pull.

It was dead when I first plugged it into my computer and then it started charging. I plugged it into the wall and it still wasn't turning on and wasn't getting a charging LED. I left it on the wall for about 15 minutes and nothing still, right now I have my battery in the freezer. I read somewhere putting your battery in your freezer could fix it or it could be completely wrong.

Take it out of the freezer, leave the phone alone for about an hour then but the battery in and plug it up. When the led light comes on, don't turn the phone on just let it charge. This has happened to me a few times and I thought I screwed something up but I did what I just told you to do and when the led light came on I let it sit and charge and then turned it on in the morning. I think the battery discharged somehow (guess), good luck.

Yea, I'd put it back in the phone and plug it back in. Let it sit for a while, an hour or two. If you don't get an led in that amount of time, you probably won't get one. You can take your battery to sprint and they should be able to boost the battery and bring it back to life.
My phone just went dead yesterday, while playing tiny tower. Suddenly turned off, and would not turn back on. When I connect the charger, the led in in the speaker blinks. When the charger is not connected, the phone is completely dead. And it does not respond to anything either way. I don't know if this is rom related. Probably not? I'm thinking returning it to the shop, and hoping for the best is my only option, unless someone here has a better idea.
Update: I tried turning it on, connected to the charger, but without the battery in. It starts. So I guess the battery died? Suddenly and completely?
What happens if you turn it on without battery in and then insert battery?
Mine did a similar odd thing when I first wiped battery stats. Was playing angry birds to drain battery right down and it turned off, but would not start. LED just blinked when power was in. I just had to plug it in and unplug it a bunch of times and it finally started charging.
I did wipe battery stats last week, but have been through a few drain/recharge cycles since then. When I start with the charger connected and insert battery it gets past the boot animation and then shuts off. I tried with a different battery yesterday, and it worked fine. When you say plug it in and unplug, do you mean connecting and disconnecting charger, just repeatedly?
yeah, was just plugging and unplugging a lot and it finally worked. If another battery worked then that would seem to be the fix.
Will try that. Thanks!
Managed to get it to start by putting the battery in after starting with just the charger first. Had to try a bunch of times before it worked. Been charging now for 5 hours, but it never gets past 10% charge on the battery? Do I just let it keep charging or is there some other way to fix it?
That happened to me in the day I bought my phone. It only started with the charger plugged in (and with no battery).
I thought the problem was in the battery, but in the store they tried with a new battery and the phone did not connect. So they replaced and everything is fine (since September).
Hi all, my note 3 just died in a strange way.
2 hours ago i it was working in the train. When i got home it was about 10%. Took it out once while smoking and put it back charging again. Half an hour ago i turned on the screen to see if i got any messages. Turned of the screen again. Half an hour later i wanted to check again, but the phone was off.
It wont turn on anymore. Tried my second battery, not working. Checked my usb cable, it was charging my external battery.
After this i plugged the phone in to charge again to see what would happen. I dont see any battery icon in the screen, the led is also not working. The battery feels cold. But the area around the camera is pretty hot. Still won't do nothing.
Has anyone any idea what this unexpected dead is about? Not rooted, not wet, not dropped, like i said, i was checking my messages half an hour ago while it was charging.

have you tried taking your phone into recovery mode (volume up+home+power)?

Yes, it is not reacting to anything. I thought maybe the power button is bricked, but that would not explain why it is not showing the battery logo and led light while charging.

Plugged usb cable into my laptop, took out battery, connected phone to cable, tried recovery and power, both not working. The upper area of the phone gets hot though. So the laptop is giving power to it i guess.
Think warranty mate sorry shouldn't be get hot

Ok thanks, what a shame.
Any technical people who might have know what caused it? Could it be a power shortcut or some kind of malware in the background? It's a really stupid death.
Mine did this
Was only 2 weeks old.
Took it back to the shop, and got it replaced.
It wouldnt charge even with the phone off
Common fault with them
similar thing happened to my wifes s2 turned out to be the motherboard
I have visited a support center. They told me the battery was giving 4.2 Volt to the phone instead of 3.8 Volt. So the phone and the battery are both broke. He told me this doesn't happen often.
