Hi, Unfortunately my Himalaya got drenched (as did i) in a thunderstorm.
I was in the middle of a call and when i swithed the device back on the screen came on upside down and then went out. I have dried it out but now it doesn't switch on at all, and on charging up the Red LED lights up constantly. I can't get any sense out of O2 so i wondered if any of you guys may be able to help with the following and i apologise if i am being a bit dumb here..but you never know someone else may have had the same experience!
1. Is my PDA now useless?
2. Does the RED LED signify anything in particular
3. Is there anything i can do to the device to re-activate it.
Thanks
mark
maybe
How long have you charged it?
When my acumulator totaly went dead the red led was flashing continously and the PDA was'nt do anything
I charged few minutes when boot up....
Have you tried a new battery, most times if a phone gets wet it kills the battery. Your main mistake was switching it on before drying it out.
Hi all, I need a little help!
Got an Orange SPV M600 - Had old rom - Upgraded to WM6 rom, all worked sweet. Tried to do a CID unlock using awizard1.2 (Left it alone for a while to do its thing) not i cant get it to turn on at all.
1. Tried a master reset - Camera + Comm Mgr + soft reset (Nothing happens)
1a. Tried Camera and softreset too (nothing happens)
2. Tried Charger short to Pins 1 and 5 (nothing happens)
3. Left battery out for 24 hours (Nothing happens)
I have bricked the device! - Is there anything else I can do except go back to orange or htc service dept and ask for help?
Cheers
Hi!! Where did you get the WM6 rom for SPV M600??
Have been looking for ages!!

Go to Tonydeli7 thread on upgrading. Go & flash the WM5 NVID version.
Then download your choice of WM6 version from PDAviet.
Dogs Nads mate. I unlocked my £75 eBay SPV M600 (courtesy of the gang) to use on Vodafone company chip, but the stock crappy grey background on the Orange WM5 fone dialer skin is total toilet..Just cant been seen on windscreen mount in my car. Follow the rules written by the guys (actually went a lot quicker than the 15-20 ,mins)..JOB DONE!
..PROPR BO I TELL THEE!!
M600 Still dead!
I have been waiting an age for someone to reply to my post with a solution but non has turned up.
Still have the problem but now its gotten a whole lot worse.
1. Plugging the M600 into the wall charger I get a red led that stays on for about 10 seconds, then goes out and nothing else happens - If I then unplug the phone and plug it back in again there is no red led. If I leave the phone unplugged over night then plug it into the power I get a red led for 10 secs then nothing.
2. Have chopped a charged and tried the pin 1 white and pin 5 other cables method but I still get no response. I have tried all combos of stylus and buttons but I just cant make this device respond.
I have just about given up hope of ever resurrecting this thing!
Is there anything else I could try?
Thanks.

Look on the g4 topic under "prophet upgrading", i think you've got the same problem like me and other.

i quest that this 10sec its charge internal batt ... i got same trouble with my prophet
As i said on the title,suddenly i couldn't recharge my Universal anymore,yes i've tried with a brend new official battery as well but everything was in vain.As soon as i plug my charge to my Universal it appear a Red Led and after 3 min or so the led turn off and so the battery.
How can i fix this problem?!
Is there any chance?!
Is it really dead like that?!
Please HHHHHHHEEEEEEEEELLLLLLLPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If the battery is really brand new, then I guess the connectors might be damaged or the internal power buses might be broken somewhere. Have you dropped your device recently? Or did anything that might explain broken connectors or internal buses?
Nothing happened to my device and never felt down,it just happened suddenly!Now if i won't be able to fix this by myself this means a finger in da a.. cuz my warranty is expired!DAAAAAAAAMN

It can be a software error. Have you tried hard resetting or installing another ROM?

Your battery is fine, unfortunately your device broke
Unless you have a lot of specialized equipment at home, and the proper qualifications, there's no way in hell you can fix this. I'm sticking with my diagnosis, that either the power routing circuit broke down, or a power bus inside the device.
Really, your best off taking it back to the store, and paying for the repair. Either that, or buying a new phone, and selling this one for spares...
Sorry mate...

I wanna die!!!I'm completely Fu.. up!!!
What a terrible news!I can't believe it!!!!
If i'll bring my phone to the assistant i'm gonna pay alot of money,at least 200.00 euro!!!!
similar problem
i had the exact same thing happen to my EXEC when i got 2 new batteries for it. One was a standard sized, pretty much the same as the stock one that came with the phone and one was a much larger capacity one that needs an extra cover for the back.
Id been using the device for ages on this huge battery and the charge said 100% constantly. then the device turned itself off and it wouldnt come back on. upon connecting the charger the LED was red, so i thought the battery was dead. I left it on charge over night and when i tried again the next morning it was fine.
this happens everytime with this battery, it just needs a much longer charge than the standard one, and doesnt register properly on the default OS, i havent tried it on my recent upgrade to one of the midget roms.
so try leaving it on charge over night or for a very long time. if all else fails just get a new battery.
That might reset the battery back to life, but I wouldn't exactly count on that. A battery with a broken monitor circuitry is pretty hard to reset.
My last hope,i'm gonna leave charging my phone for a day and then see what happend....I'm desperate
Permanent red light...
I had this problem, I put the phone on charge but forgot to put a battery in - spare phone... It wouldn't work no matter what I did , until I reformatted the DOC by following the steps in the WIKI.

Could u post it please?!
Took a while but here it is...
I did the task 28 55aa command in MTTY which should reformat the DOC alternatively you could reload the bootloader using the link below...
MTTY with "task 28 55aa", "set 14 0", "set 14 9, "set 14 10" and "set 14 20" as described. bootloader screen may be replaced with a blank one, boot it on bootloader mode by "Backlight+Power+Reset"
http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Universal_Resets
now upgrade as usual.
If you stuck on the bootloader again after upgrading, try to upgrade the bootloader itself go to http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=1255206&postcount=52

Same Problem, Led Indicator Always red
Hi,
We have the same situation, my jasjar just died in my hands, im reading a txt messages then al of the sudden it hangs, so what i did is reset it but it didnt power on, i removed the battery then after 10mins i put it back but then no power,then i charged it but it didnt power on too and the led indicator is always red, they say that if the indicator is red it means that there is no battery or the battery is missing but i check it thoroughly,the battery is perfectly place on the back of jasjer, i even tried to enter to bootloader but it cant. If anyone knows how can i revive my jasjar pls pls let us know....Thank you so much.

Exactly if my Jasjar is completely dead how can i connect via usb and then use mtty?!
I'm losing my hope to bring it back to live!
have same problem - can do nothing, still waiting
but there is one thing - led flashes once, when i put the charger into the device - but it does nor light, nor flashes - exactly nothing happens
If your device is dead...
Well just to answer the question, if the battery is dead and you can't charge it because of a red LED. I suggest you buy a standalone charger from ebay and charge the battery or get someone else to charge it for you. Then follow the steps as I stated in my previous post...

The point is that the device is dead and that is why the constant red light. I have a device that is stuck on the splash screen (no solution in sight) and another that fell down and broke. The one that fell down does not power on. If you put a charged battery ang plug in the charger nothing happens, no light comes on, but if you put a discharged battery the red light comes on. I have a third Uni that I accidentally flashed with a BA rom. It is behaving exactly like the broken uni, it does not turn on, does not go into bootloader and the red light comes on when I plug in the charger with a discharged battery in it.
For some things, there's just no cure...
Okay I understand where you're coming from but essentially what you need to do, under normal circumstances, is connect it to your PC, which if the device is working at all the PC will detect it but not connect... In the case of two of your Uni's I don't think this will help - the dropped one and the BA ROM failure. The one with the Red LED, which has stopped working could be a component failure on the board or it could be a Corrupt DOC table. Now to get back to how you'd go about fixing it if it is a corrupt DOC table, when you connect it to the PC and the PC detects it you disable ActiveSync and start MTTY it should give you the option of connecting to the USB port, when it does this if you get a prompt the problem should be fixable because MTTY can "talk" to the device... As for the other's try this method and if it doesn't work sell them for parts or canabalise the one for parts for the other...
At The Beginning
I have a Cingular 8125 G3. I first began flashing new roms onto my phone 4 months ago after I unlocked it using "the definitive guide to unlocking phone" by DrDot. Everything went smoothly.
The Start of the Problem
A couple days ago, I was running the TNT 1933 with CoolCamera. SUDDENLY, my phone started to reset itself everytime I went on the internet, or downloaded emails.
The Attempted Fix
I decided to flash my phone to another rom, so I began by flashing it back to 1.05 rom that you use in "the definitive guide to unlocking phone" by DrDot, before flashing it to a better rom.
The Final Finally
In the middle of the udate process (for the 1.05 rom), my computer screen said, an error occured, and to redo the update. When I looked at my phone, it started to blink on the 3 color bars. It kept blinking until it died. Now it cannot read a charge or turn on. I tried leaving it on my charger overnight, hoping it would charge, and nothing (not even the charge light on the phone would go on. I also made sure the phone charger was fine, which it is. I even tried to charge it on the usb cable, and occassionally I see the 3 color bars flash). My phone is bricked.
buy a new battery and then flash a new rom
It is not bricked
I will try that

Okay, I'll try that. I'll let you know tonight.
keep in mind that when you are in bootloader mode (tri-color screen) the phone cannot be charged, this is why you should always have a 50% battery level when you flash a rom. A new battery should definately fix it, id flash it with a manufacturers rom that is known to work like the wizard love or t mobile 2.26
Everything is good thanks
I put a new battery in there and it is fine now. Thanks. How can I delete this thread? It is pointless now.
bringing the emty battery UP again with home tools
Please note that the following is highly experimental and if you consider to use the following "workaround" it is TOTALLY AT YOUR OWN RISK and i can not be held responsible for damages caused to your hardware or to yourself!!!!!
I had the same issue 2 times till now, what i made:
i took a USB cable (like the normal one i use for the wizard to connect it to the pc), cut off the mini usb jack. There are 4 wires in the cable we need the black one and the red one. The red goes to the + of the battery and the black goes to the - of the battery (on my battery the + and the - are marked), if on some batteries there are no marks for + and - you can use multi zet tool to check. The next thing is to put the cable in a free usb on the pc and the wires on the battery. Its quite difficult to find out the right place and position for charging the battery this way - but you actually need to charge it this way not more than 5-10 mins. Then you can boot normally and continue charging the "right" way. Use your old battery again. Thats all...
Regards
Its all in chronological order. As the title says my phone wont charge. USB CABLE from PC or wall charger it just wont charge. Following some threads i also removed the battery and connected it to main but no led would show up. Right now i've removed the battery and charging on universal charger fine,
So here is the history. I dont know what can cause it not to charge. While i was at university my phone fell on the ground. It was not from height as i was just sitting on the sidewalk and it fe ll down. Then I came back home. I have ICS Ruu Saga on it which i'm not happy about and wanted to go back to GB ever since i realized that my camera quality is worse than before and my Subway Surfer game is not smoother any more,
Seeing some threads I selected the recovery option in bootmode (vol down+power). After few second a red triangle came showing ! sign. I removed the battery and re-inserted as the power key wont work. When i re-inserted the battery and powered up but it was different boot method. before selecting recovery option the booting of phone was smooth..but after that it stucked for a few seconds first and then came the home screen.
After all this as my battery was getting low i decided to put it on charge. I connected USB Cable to charge it and realized after sometime it isnt being charged,,,there was no orange led that usually indicates its being charged.
So thats all. I dont know if dropping the phone was cause of it or doing recovery ( note: i never made a backup of my phone every..i dont know why i did it, in hoping that it would go back to GB itself) and the appearing of red trianlge with ! mark and me removing the battery did it.
Please help me. I spent entire night on finding the solution but couldnt find anything.
Phones warranty is over..Its not rooted or has CWM as i dont know that stuff.
