[Q] Milestone do not recharge battery after GOT 2.2.1 flash. - Android Software/Hacking General [Developers Only]

Hello,
Two days ago, I did flash GOT 2.2.1 (Great peice of software btw). However, now my milestone is not able to recharge any battery. I did revert to the stock rom without any effect.
Can a simple ROM kill hardware in a phone ?
Any suggestion ?
Thanks !

Help please ! My Milestone is dead ;-(( Any idea on what could get my milestone to charge a battery ? I did use the usb to computer charge and the usb to wall. Nothing !

hey,dude did ur battery problem get solved,coz i am using 2.2 got too for 1 day,
everything fine....i hope that doesnt happen to me

Well, 2.2 got broke it somehow. I guess the part was already weak when I did flash it.
Was just a bad luck moto did repair it.

Half-bricked Defy!

Hi. As you know, i had problems with my sdcard using CM7, so I started to look for good froyo rom. Then I saw rooted french froyo with bootmenu preinstalled. So I downloaded it and flashed through rsd lite (my battery was like 50%).
Rom didn't work, so I downloaded nordic sbf... while i was downloading, my battery run out. Now I cannot flash anything because when I go into bootloader it says "Low Battery, can't progress".
I tryied McGyer method (with usb cable, + to + etc. ) but it doesn't charge my battery. In my city there is no other Defy users. My friend own galaxy s, maybe he can help me, but for now nothing works (other batteries in SE Yari, K800, HTC Magic).
PLEASE HELP ME GUYS, MY MAGIC LAAAGSSS SOOO HAARD...
buy a universal charger! seriously it comes in handy in many occasions.
other than that, you can probably wire your battery to another external charger (lots of cameras come with chargers).
I have only mini-usb and usb plugs, dc in, something like Nokia Charger, I don't have a time to buy a universal charger, but if there is no other way to recover my defy, I can wait...

If there is something you dont understand ask me.
I have not tested it becouse i never had this problem.
Ok, I managed to flash new SBF, but to power up phone, I have to plug in usb cable really hard - it won't start without usb plugged in.
Also there is a problem with battery (doesn't show accurate percentage) but it's because mcgyver method and I think this thing can be solved by battery stats wipe.
Any solution for launching phone without USB cable?
mcgyver method should work, but im surprised you say it didnt. did you connect the wires correctly?
Of course I did, now it's charged I think, but I can't launch phone without usb plugged in (no matter is it from motorola charger or PC). It just doesn't respond. Also I have tried wipe battery stats but still says that it's 60% charged all the time. Can it be hardware problem?

Friend you need to Visit any local Mobile service centers they have got a method of making the phone on without battery. Carry with you the RSS lite Motorola usb driver and the sbf file and don't forget to carry the USB cable. Ask the person to wake up the phone with JAF and you are ready to go I too had the same problem but was lucky to have one friend to help me out.

Ns4g ics battery charge

I'm trying to figure out if this problem is just my phone or an actual issue. I just got this phone 2 days ago from craigslist after being with the evo for almost a year. As soon as I got it, I rooted it n tried flashing ics roms themed and original leaked update. On every rom I flashed, the phone wouldn't recognize the charger or usb or it would tell me its charging but it would take 6 hours to gain 6% more battery? I also tried turning the phone off to charge but that didn't work either. Anyone know anything about this n what I did wrong or didn't do?

I've had the exact same problem, i bought a NS4g from craigslist that wouldn't charge or turn on without a charger being plugged in. Long story short, i eventually got it back from Samsung with the warranty being voided due to water damage. So i opened it up and found some oxidation resudue and cleaned it off by scrapping it off. Luckily it worked!!. For you it might just be the battery since it actually says 6%, try to replace with another battery or place the battery in the freezer for 5 mins and try it again.
I flashed the unofficial leak rom again n it charges now but it doesn't say its charging on the lock screen or on the battery icon, but in the system info it says its charging? I have never ran into this type of issue before?

Exact Same Problem
I was given ICS 4.0.4 via OTA update by google... It worked fine for like 2 months then exactly the same problem arises with my Nexus S i9023 (unrooted).
1. It's doesn't indicate on the lock screen that it's charging nor it indicates on the battery icon, however it does tells me that the battery is charging when I check the battery in the settings. This issue exists on both wall chargers and usb cable.
2. It doesn't asks me to mount mass memory of my Nexus S and my windows 7 machine says it cannot recognize the device..
I strongly suspects it's a bug in the ICS...
I would appreciate any help that I can get on this issue... but to be honest I read many threads here and I can't understand half of what people are trying to say, so I request to keep things a bit simple because I know nothing about how to root or flash or doing any other super geeky stuff ...
thanks
Some people have had luck just cleaning the USB port with a dry toothbrush and a can of compressed air. Might just be dirt. Worth a shot.
thanks mate,
Yeah, tried cleaning it with a brush... still no luck..

It's just the poor battery most of the times.. With ur new battery or even the old one fully charged it should work flawlessly.. Let me know if u stumble upon any other issue

PS: Thank you ;-)
hopefully it is the battery, think i have to wait 2 day till the new one arrives. I wish so much that you are rigth :highfive:
greets lawrexxx
i got the new battery today but it is still the same no reaction only a black display. I think it is really broken. I'm at a loss what to do
1. Charge the battery properly using an external battery charger.
OR
2. Use the other method of cutting the USB cable n directly charging the battery.
3. Boot to Open Recovery once you see the M logo.
Give us your problem in detail after trying these steps.

I got a new battery yesterday and with this it was the same i cant switch the phone on, no bootloader nothing not even the motorola M
The following happend to my phone:
After reflashing to 2.1 i run it with dexter's froyo it was really good running. Than i changed the wallpaper to an android logo which was new in my gallery after installing dexter's froyo, it looks not good and i want to change it back. Suddendly the display did'nt react anymore it seems like it was frozen i can't do anything not even switch it out. Than - and i think, this was my big mistake - i put the battery out and in again and i try to switch it on...and nothing happend.
Maybe interessting: I try to load the phone with the new battery and the phone becomes warn in the upper, area one third.
Postscript: I just dicover that the total phone becomes warm allover, the battery is in, i put it out and i think the phone is warmer than the battery. I put the battery in again
PS: 1/2 hour later the phone is now cold again

[Q] How to Charge .. ?

I have had my Samsung Galaxy Note 10.1 for around 3.5 weeks. First of all I must express how much i adored the tablet, and how my computer , tv and games consoles became obsolete. However recently, I looked into rooting the device, I eventually did after 1 week of speculating possible scenarios in my head. So i rooted it using the Clockwork Mod method, again it worked fine for a couple of days, until i was playing a game, when the battery ran dead flat. Normally this would of been ok, however when i plugged it into the official samsung ac adapter plug, it recognized it as charging, but in 12 hours it hadn't risen by 1%. I was furious, I had saved up alot of money, for a long time - for it to brake. I then tried charging via usb connection , still no luck.
I tried searching online for similar cases where they couldn't get it to charge. I didn't find any for the N8010, but for other devices. They reccomended factory resetting , to see if that would help. So.. I did that ( after finding that after 2 days it goes up by 1 %) still no luck, so my question to you is:
' Have any of you experienced similar cases with your note, and what do you suggest?'
Admittedly, I am new to this - so somewhere along the line, I had probably failed which caused this, but still any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try Odin to stock. If that doesn't work then you probably have to get it fixed
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Plug it into a usb port of your computer. This will charge though slower than your wall charger. I suggest this in case there's something wrong with the wall charger. If it charges then you know its not the tablet...
I was wondering if you had any luck with this yet? i remember back when i owned a droid x i flashed a ROM that prevented charging. If you weren't lucky enough to have a spare battery around some people ended up splitting the usb cable and connecting it straight to the battery to do a force charge. If you are up against a wall and are desperate to get it charged you can check out this guide to opening it up http://cnettv.cnet.com/cracking-open-samsung-galaxy-note-10-1/9742-1_53-50130350.html the reason i say that is because it sounds like you need to ODIN back to completely stock and then start over. You don't want to run ODIN unless you have a good charge though. I have no idea if this is good advice or not... the thought just crossed my mind when i read your situation. Take my advice for what it's worth (not much) and do so at your own risk as i accept no responsibility if you end up with a $500 paperweight.

Damn! I can get it to the same 1 % however quickly, but again I cannot charge through USB or AC adapter, both recognize as charging..
Does anyone know of a way to charge another way?
P.S. I managed to get a charge once.. after not being able to . The outcome was that it was 17% and by the time I looked at the guide again it was out of battery. I found if i completly discharge the battery, then leave it a couple of days, then charge.. it miraculously works! But I don't think that is normal.I will try that again in a last ditch chance , then i will reflash stock firmware.
I think its more of an issue with Rom which is doing that you should try reverting back to stock rom one question if you have CWM why didnt you take nanodroid backup if you would have done that it would have saved you loads of trouble.
I am not an expert of Samsung devices, but isnt there a method like we have in LG using NVFlash or Smartflash which does not require battery.
Also may be the RIL has spooked your charging volts
Mate, that's not normal. If you get it to charge, wait until its ay least 50% charged before trying to flash, though it sounds like things aren't working properly there anyway... If you get it back to stock and there's still a problem definately return it as it sounds like battery could be stuffed. Don't forget, if you haven't already, to run triangle away as you need to reset flash counter before loosing root.... Especially if you're returning under warranty....

Bricking HTC phones got very less chances .....like out of 100% HTC phones won't brick for 99.99% .
So try changing your battery...might help
Sent from my HTC Explorer using xda premium
It's definitly no a brick 'cause you did flashed your kernel and ROM successfully after rooting it. I've never heard of anyone who bricked his phone while he rooted it succesfully and had a working custom ROM on it.
Have you overclocked it, may the battery/chipsets died this way? Any scripts or tweaks on it?
Mhmmm...found this:
http://lifehacker.com/5853519/how-do-i-fix-my-bricked-android-phone
It says sth. about phones that won't turn on anymore
Dude ... Yeah Firstly .. trying changing The Batt. cause .. i have a feeling ur Battery has gone Bad ... :/ n try to clean ur like golden slots in battery .. Check if there is Carbon type thing in those ..
This may be the first case of bricking i've seen for Pico. Have a look at your battery, or the port in which your charger plugs in.
Do you charge with USB? I had a problem with my USB wire, it did not charge when connected to adapter, so i used my Samsung charger and charged the phone. So check your charging apparatus.
If everything is in vain, go to HTC Store and play dumb (i.e. "Sir i was using it and suddenly it did not start")
and Rule 1 in playing dumb: Never utter the "root" word, nor bootloader, its best if the store guy thinks you're a noob
Trust me, most of the time if you are within the warranty time they wont bother and give you a new phone, my friend once did with Micromax, and got it repaired free of cost.
