Raphael not working hardware/software

Hi, i got a Vodafone branded (dutch) touch pro 2 for just 2 weeks now used it for 3 days and after that the phone wont go on anymore or even show a light when charging.
these are the things i did and knew what was kinda weird.
i unlocked the sim so i could use my other simcard. it worked like a charm did it with the tool that was posted on this site.
also i found out that the back off the phone felt kinda warm, to warm for my liking.
de 4th day i knew my battery was almost empty but i forgot to get it out of my glove compartment. (empty and no water/condense in glove compartment) i wanted to charge it because the screen was black and would not go on. so i plugged in the charger but i do not see any lights go on.
i have let it charge for a few hours in a hope that it would work but it didnt.
Also when in use the battery drainage was very fast like 8 or 12 hours standby
has anyone had this before and if so how did you solve this?
i have been to vodafone store and they said that i needed my warrenty papers first before sending it to repairs. but i just moved so i had to request the papers at there servicedesk.
and now i was kinda like well maybe i can do it myself.
When the phone worked it was really a refresh in speed for me because im used to the p4350. hope someone has a sollution for this.

sounds very much like a bad battery. see if you can do an exchange at the store

yeah that
i had a wizard (cingular 8125) for three years.
and that is how it died.
one day it got to 1% life .. and i forgot to charge it.. and then when i finally did plug it in hungover 12 hours later.. the charging LED on the phone didn't light up, but i didn't panic. i let it sit like that for a few hours and attempting to turn it on.. and it never came on. and now it's a paperweight on my nightstand. i won't let my new raphael go that low i can tell you that
sorry about your tragic event; you would think a phone this new wouldn't do something so silly! (that was my second battery on my three year old phone, and i surmised a new battery would rectify the situation for that phone anyway)
please let us know what you end up doing

[Q] Touch Pro Died - T7272

Last Monday my HTC just died (no lights on, no recharge, just did not work at all), the battery was full, as it was had been charged.
I'm looking for solutions here in the forum, I found a post where he showed how to do the hard reset and soft reset (I got bootloader).
I got it to work, everything was fine until it happened again, with the battery recharged it just to wake up the clock rang and died again, already tried to do the whole procedure than had done before without any results. But I cant get work the phone (bootloader doesn't work).
It may be a software problem or hardware?
PS.: Original ROM that I use is only updated (_HTC HTC Touch Pro Raphael Europe - 5.05.401.1R2 Signed Raphael Radio 1.11.25.01 52.58.25.30).
Thank you for your attention!

not tried it yet, actually I don't have another battery, but it would be possible to cause the battery? even if it is fully charged!
I'll try on some electronics repair shop.
Thank you for now, as the results happen, I'll post.

[Q] Sensation Battery

Hi all this question may of been asked before or slightly differently. I have Sensation with ICS (Unbranded) and had the phone since Sept 2011 and it seems when my battery gets to 30-40% left (approx) i start getting rebooting and becomes more so lower it gets. Now i know its not ICS as it started doing this 2-3 weeks when i had gingerbread. So could my battery be failing? or something more sinister going on?
Thanks in advance
Also when i upgraded to ICS i did a factory reset.

I'm a bit curious to see the answer for this one, my friend has the same problem, and I've been trying to troubleshoot it for him with no luck.
There are a few posts about switching the type of signal, which we tried, but it wasn't a good solution as he didn't get 3G network at where he lived

So i have now also turned wifi off (Only 3G enabled) and @ 50% according to battery indicator i went to open a message (SMS) and it rebooted on me.

Did you cablibrate the battery?

um no, never heard of battery calibration , any tutorials on what needs to be done. Thats new to me
Ah ok i found this on xda for non rooted device
1. Turn off your phone.
2. Fully Charge.
3. When getting 100% signal, unplug quickly.
4. Pull off the battery and put it anywhere.
5. Wait for 180 seconds exactly (be careful )
6. Meanwhile, take this opportunity to dust off the internal compartment.
7. Put back the battery on the right side.
8. Turn on the phone.
9. Pray the Battery god
10. ... and voilà !

So i will give that a try

I tried my above post to calibrate battery and it didnt work for me so i sent my phone back for repair and alls good now. They never said what was faulty so the reason i guess is still unknown.
Some people on Facebook HTC UK page said it could of been a Ram or Processor issue, it wasn't a battery issue as I still use same battery and works fine since i got it back.

Turn off your phone.
Fully Charge.

Thanks i tried everything inc. your idea and all failed. I returned it to HTC for repair in the end

my battery charged than i go from home out, than i looked my phone; phone turn off, than come bak my home and plug charge; but phone not charged-charge light not shine-. i plug my extended mugen battery and phone turn on. what the hell my original battery?

[Problem] HTC Inspire will not work at all HELP!!

Hey all, I just got through with this hurricane sandy business and now I find my phone not working at all. First off I'd like to say that there is no water damage to this phone and it is NOT rooted. The problem is that it just won't turn on at all, and won't charge when I try to charge the device. The day before I charged the phone and it worked fine. I can provide more details if needed but I need to find a solution to this.

Did it run down on battery completely before it did this? You might need to charge it for a bit before it turns on. Also, see if you can get your hands on a spare battery to see if it's the battery's problem. I would also try removing the battery and putting it back just to make sure it wasn't jostled loose.

Two days ago I completely let the battery drain on its own because it was draining faster than usual and I was using it very minimally due to the lack of phone signal during the power outage. And yesterday I charged it until it was 100% in the morning and at night I charged it again until 100%. Before I went to bed, I turned off my phone and it was 90% and when I turned it on in the morning it was at 77% (which I thought was weird since the phone was not even on). Now the phone will not work at all. I took the battery out and everything. I even tried turning the phone on while trying to charge it (but it would not charge). The only feedback I got was that it vibrated when I tried turning it on this afternoon and after that was nothing. (it would either get stuck at the AT&T bootup part or I would get no display at all)

And nothing happened to it in between at all? That's very odd. The only thing I can think of to try is another battery.

Please post all questions in the Q & A section. Thanks! Thread moved.

Nothing I can think of. It was fully charged by 9PM the other night and shut off before I went to bed. Next morning the batter is nearly halfway drained for no apparent reason. I think I will get another battery to test.
Also I let the battery sit out of the phone for a few days now and the phone still does not work.

Get a hold of a charged battery, then after 1 hour with no battery in the device, replace the battery remove the SD-Card and the SIM-Card, replace all covers. Reboot your PC and go to firewall tab in the control panel and turn of your firewalls, then reboot your PC, then using USB data cable not a charging cable.. with your device being OFF conect to a USB connection in the back of your PC, if it's a laptop use the one next to the intranet connection. Then wait about 1min. If nothing happwned, hold the volume down button then press and release the power button. if nothing happened, hold the volume up then press and release the power button. If nothing happened do the samething this time by holding both up and down volume buttons. If nothing happened with your device connected to the PC go to MY Computer tab right click on C>Properties then go to tools click on check disc tab check mark both options then restart your PC. Before windows tour OS starts, your PC will go through a self check. let it do its thing. it takes a couple of hours. then after its down check to see if it has seen your device. if not then do procedures above once again. GOOD LUCK.

Okay so I finally got it to turn on but in order to charge it, the phone must be turned off for some reason. Also, the touch screen is not working, even after I did a hard reset and erased all my data. I'm not sure if it is a hardware issue or a software issue because the display is working fine.

That same thing happened to a friend of mine. She took it to a technician tho and they sorted it out for her.

Hello every one, this just my first post here, but I have been follow the forum very very close since some days ago thanks to Mustaavalkosta and his new CyanogenMod Rom here:http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2533007&page=283.
I am having a similar problem with my HTC Inspire, here is my story. I bought it like it a year ago, the first thing I do was to rooted with AAHK and install CyanoyenMod cm-7-20130301-NIGHTLY-ace. Everything works just fine till a couple of months ago. One night I just leave my Inspire and go to sleep, the next morning I wasn't able to turn on, not charging, not turn on. Was not the battery because my brother has another Inspire and I check with his battery. I just leave the phone without the battery and Sim and SD for a day and them come back again, but at next day the same occurs. I try all that time, vol down+power. voldown+volup, every convination but nothing works. So I decide to dissensambly my phone... in the process I broke the ribbon flex cable http://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-HTC-Desire-HD-Inspire-4G-Camera-Socket-Keypad-Membrane-PBC-Ribbon-Flex-Cable-/320925341841?pt=US_Cell_Phone_Replacement_Parts_Tools&hash=item4ab8a41891 The phone was in parts on my table like a month till I was able to buy and recieve the ribbon (I live in Colombia). Finally the ribbon arrives 3 days ago, so I assembled the phone again and...magic! the phone turns on. My next step was install the Mustaavalkosta Rom that I mentioned before.... but, yesterday, my phone was dead again. So a try all steps again, put out the battery, Sim and Sd... and again try all the combinations of buttons, but nothing works... So I do it again: dissensably again my phone: Only disconnecting the display doesn't works... I have to disconect the display and the ribbon cable, assembled again and just turn on again.... Now I am waiting for the next black out...
I know is a weird behavior, but may be some one can point me in some direction to fix it.. I am not a developer or anything like that, but I like to investigate and solve problems... any help will be wonderful.
Cheers!
PD: I dont have any apps installed, just trying the Rom as it is.
PD: The next time it happens I will try the niavaran advises.

New battery not charging!

Hi guys, I've searched anywhere but I couldn't found a workaround for my issue, so I decided to make this post since it's driving me nuts.
I recently decided to substitute my opo battery since it was swolling up, with this one https://www.amazon.it/gp/product/B00W9ZAURM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
Installing it was easy, but i quickly encountered some problems! First, the battery would not charge. The opo died at 2% and no matter how much time I left it in charge, it took almost a day to get it back little by little. Anyhow I managed to make it work, but the problem now is different: most of the times, I have to use caffeine to keep the screen on while charging, otherwise it won't work. I know that since I'm using AccuBattery Pro to check the incoming power. Sometimes it doesn't even work this way and I have to shut the screen off, unplug the cable, plug it in again, and then keep the screen on. I noticed that since I left the phone in charge for 1 hour and the battery percentage was still the same as it was earlier. Take a look at the screen so you can understand.
Ah! I almost forgot! 2 or 3 times has happened that the phone powered off all of a sudden. I'd like to throw it from my f******g window.
P.S. I'm using opo's original charger & cable; i tried with a different charger & cable still made by oneplus since my father has the same phone, so it isn't a cable\charger problem.

The original swollen battery has battery backup issues too? If not,I advice you to use that again,as no better,or equal and genuine batteries are available anywhere.

No, never had a problem with the original one but it was starting to break the back cover... So I threw it in the bin ? the seller sent me another sealed battery, maybe I should try it. Any advice on how to calibrate it properly?

Search battery thread in accessories section.

Mind telling me what is the serial number on the battery connector? those serial number can tell you whether you bought an original battery or OEM battery...
