XDA II main battery AC only ???? - General Topics

i am having a problem with my XDA II phone every time i place my charger into the phone i go to the battery details and the backup battery shows 25% red and the rest green meaning its fully charged at 100% but is the 25% red bit right?? :? the next problem i have is the MAIN BATTERY, it shows AC ONLY, that surely must not be right at all, it just stays at 0% when i remove the mains charger the phone works but everytime i do something the phone it goes to stand by mode when i am not finished using it. YES i have tried another battery, same thing happens again. is there anything i can do to sort this problem out, i am a good solderer i can do anything to the circuit board if it needs to be done, ANY HELP WOULD BE GREAT, THANK YOU

XDaIIi - Battery charging issue

All
I have an XDa2i, after removing the battery pack earlier this week the unit now wont activate or take a charge from any source. Every time I unlock the battery whilst on charge the red charge light comes on but when the battery lock is applied the charging discontinues. Several battery changes have been tried but the unit will not charge or activate.
Any thoughts or advice on this issue most welcome as always.
Thanks
Pete
If you have got the Cradle then charge your battery itself by the mains adapter not by USB power, once the baterry charging light becomes Green, then put the battery in the XDA, lock the red button and leave it for approx 1-2 hours (or may be overnight), but do not try to switch-on the XDA, The reason behind not to switch-on the device is that the device's internal battery would be completely flattened and that would re-charge automatically once you put a main full battery to the device.
Try to switch-on the device after 2 hours by holding the power button for few seconds, and hopefully XDA should back on.
As far as I have understand the situation and if its right then you might have already lost all the setting & data stored on the device, sorry for that.
GoodLuck & let me know.

Absolutely no joy! the device was on charge overnight and the light stayed red. There was no response from the unit at all. Any other thoughts, or does this sound like complete system failure?
Any other advice would be welcome.
Come-oooon Peter I have said to charge the battery ALONE on the charger (not to put it in the device and charge), try to fully charge the battery (Just battery) on the cradle's back slot and then try the same.
GoodLuck & let me know

:(WHEN BATTREY FULLY CHARGED AND THE LED TURNS TO GREEN MY JASJAR FREEZED,plz help!

I used to get the JASJAR battery issue by blacking out on X% - X%
but not anymore when i bought a new battery and replaced it with my old one, but i found there is an issue with the new one when i fully charge it till it shows green light suddenly the JASJAR freez and wont work till i soft rest
this forbidding me from fully charging it and really a pain in the ass when i leave it to charge overnight while im sleeping but when i woke up i find that it freezed as it shows green even if i pull the charger wire from it till i soft rest again.
in this case i prevent to keep it on the charger for long time to fully charge because i fear to lose any phone call or anything during freezing.
anybody knows the solution for this issue?

Perhaps if you try to install another ROM could solve the problem
Hope it helps and good luck,
I'm having the same problem. Have tried 2 ROM. I'm using 3200 mah battery. I'm not really sure about this, but when I'm using the 1600 mah battery, it seems ok. I'll try again tonight charging with 1600 mah battery

I had this problem two times with two new batteries, I sent them back to the supplier, it's not a matter of ROM (tried on my Universal and on another Uni of a friend, same behaviour) it's a battery problem.
Marco.
yes it is battery problem, UNI won't wake up when full charging.
so make it not sleep when charging
try to change setting -> battery power
do not check on external power.
hope it work

This Is Smart
defiantly will try it out tonight
I had similar problem, but it was ROM-related. Try re-flashing Tomal 8.2 and see if it solves it. Nothing to lose. If doesn't work - you know it has to be the battery.
I generally re-flash when problems appear, especially when you had the same ROM for some time. Solves most of things.
Best of luck

Battery Calibration without root?

I know you need to be rooted to calibrate a battery, but I am wondering of there is another way. Or possibly the Sensation software is jacked.
I have ahd my phone on its charger for hours. It shows full, but a battery monitor app states its only 97%. After reading, this seems to be a common issue.
I have already charged full, and pulled battery, reset phone and still the same.
I am no battery expert. Any suggestions?

Using the SEARCH function can only help you, battery expert or not. There have been many threads covering this.
1. Charge your phone til it hits 100% then turn it off while plugged in.
2. Remove charger until LED is inactive
3. Replace charger & the light should be orange/amber, charge til green again.
Repeat 2 & 3 until there is no amber light showing
Rinse, repeat a few times. If it goes from green to green right away just leave it for a half hour or so OFF and charging. Hope that helps, if not search just like I did

Sensation LED blinking but phone not turning on

Hi,
That would suggest that your battery is flat.
Why don't you plug the charger in for half an hour ,then try booting again.
Yeah like above said your battery is dead, as soon as the light stays solid it means you can start your phone. Depending on how badly its drained itll take like 15 mins while being plugged into AC. This usually happens to me while playing a game and i dont notice the low battery lol
exactly the same thing happened to me just now...
Strange thing thou was that the phone was connected to the charger all night long and I just removed it from the charger
Charging right now... lets wait a bit
-update
Charger seems to have died in action.....
what was your outcome adiallo77 ?
-update 2
Charger started to work fine again ...
I'm confused now
I had the same problems when I first install cwrecovery, after a night in the charger it was working fine again
I just started having this problem with my phone. The battery is not charging at all, my phone won't turn on, but the red light is blinking. I have been reading and trying all day everything I could find in xda, but still no results. I can't remember which ROM I installed last, but it has stock kernel, ICS probably virtuous.
This usually happens when your battery has drained completely.
Here's what you need to do. Put your phone on an hour long charge before trying anything.
Don't put the phone for charge on the PC or in the car, but use the standard wall charger that was provided with the phone. Whatever happens, don't pull the phone off charging.
After an hour of charging is completed, switch on your phone as you normally would, without unplugging the charger. Your phone should be fine.
Let it charge to 100%, calibrate your battery and perform a restart to maintain the right graduation for battery levels.

Have you tried a different battery?
Have you checked if the battery fits tightly?
EDIT: Too many of these recently. We need to find the source!

i don't have an extra battery but the one i have does fit. I'm gonna see if i can find me another battery borrowed.
Does the orange light continue to blink after a few minutes? I had this problem a while ago but the light would blink for about a minute and then stop, then the battery wouldn't charge and my phone wouldn't turn on.
What I ended up doing was putting my battery into my Desire HD and charging it for 15 min (aligning the pins and just holding the battery down since its too big to fit in the HD and letting it charge) and then I put it back into my sensation and it would pick up charge.
I would suggest getting an external charger and letting the charger bring your battery up to 5-10 percent then putting it back into the sensation and try to charge it/see if your phone will turn on.
The same thing has just happend to my gf's sensation XE, she left it on all night charging, now it wont turn on, tried everything. Its all stock since day one. might have to send it back, her last HTC phone broke too (wildfire), Any tricks to try and get it to turn on?
The lights come on at the bottom keys, but no display ?

My HTC One X Is Dead??

Hi dudes I have a big problem with my htc one x, my cell phone doesn't charge anything (the red led dont turn on and the charge dock doesnt get heat) It didn't crashed or something, it was with low battery and I took borrowed his charge dock (I was in his house), but it didn't charge anything, as I said my cell phone wasn't crashed or hitted by nothing, It just stopped charging, what can I do to revive it? Please help mee :crying::crying:
Did u let it fully die? Sometimes power cycling is not a good idea...shooot.. Doing it isn't good period. Let it stay in charger overnite.. What ROM you running ?
Yes the charge fully died, and turned off, I let it in the power plugged last night the whole night charging and nothing happend, It was working well untill I pluged it with my friend's charger, his charger is 5v 800mA, since I plugged it on, it stopped charging, that might damage my phone? I mean all chargers are the same but , seriously that charger could kill my phone? is weird
Not all chargers are the same. Have you tried using your own charger?

Yeah I tried with 2 diferent chargers but nothing happend, since I plugged in my friend's charger my cell phone doesnt want to charge anything :crying::crying:
What happens when you connect it to a PC? Do you get a connect/disconnect sound at all?
Sent from my Evita
Nothing happens, the red led is off always, dont even't flashes
How often did you power cycle (let it die completely) the device?
Sent from my Evita
ummm that's really weird when it happends, I'm always with my phone charged but yesterday I wasn't able to charge up and it ends with the battery charge
That doesn't really answer the question, how often did you let the phone die completely?
Sent from my Evita
maybe once every 3 weeks or 1 month
Ok. I'd keep trying to charge the phone, but unfortunately this kind of thing does happen with electronic devices from time to time. There's no real way to say exactly what's happened but it's very possible you have a brick.

the last 2 weeks my cellphone was automically rebooting, the bottons of the cell phone (back,home,and the other) start flashing and automatically rebooting, I don't know If that says something what do you think?
Could he possibly hold down vol and power..for a long time...maybe it could get to boot loader,,,,?
I tried but still dead x_x
Power cycling shouldnt bother a mobile phone battery to be fair, unless it's left in a low state for an extended period of time (8% discharge per month roughly) so it's a bit of a misnomer. Lithium batteries should never be fully discharged but as a safeguard you will find when the battery reaches 0% as displayed on the phone the battery is still more than halfway charged to prevent this kind of thing happening. (Most phones register 0% at 3v but the safety threshold is around 2.2v, absolute battery death is 1.5v. Bare in mind at full capacity a cell is 4.2v so your pretty safe when it gets to 0%)
What is more likely an issue is using a faulty charger, there are dozens of cheap chargers which will trash a battery. It is disgusting what gets through the borders from places like China, these things don't have adequate power regulation or filtering. At best you reduce the phone lifespan, at worst it burns the house down. Never ever use a charger than costs less than $15 as there's a reason, decent components cost money unfortunately..
Now, if the device won't charge (a usb 3 port on a pc is ideal as it provides a stable 5v at 900mA or more if a genuine HTC charger isn't available) or switch on you can try removing the battery (be careful as the HTC screen is delicate and there are special tools you need), there are guides on the net or if your not confident then take it to a service centre and they should replace it for you for a fee.. if you buy a new battery off eBay then don't bother with the high capacity as they're fakes, if HTC could cram extra mA into the same size they would - but it's against the laws of physics to get double capacity.
I'm sorry your phone appears dead. I hope it's just the battery, just be very wary about unbranded docks/chargers as they're evil.

Check the Charging port and switch the cable
Maybe the charging port is broken.
On the other side maybe the cable is broken did you try charging another divice with it?
The solution may be simpler than you think.
Friends when I plug in my htc one x to my computer, my computer made a sound, but it didn't detected my cell phone (just made a sound when you plug-in any divice), and my cell phone doesn't charge is there any I can do? Or is dead
You might be able to get a jtag repair done.
