[Q] my touch 4g slide pyro ICS no turning on - T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide

Hello.
I installed the PYRO ICS. it works great. thanks for all the effort. I have one issue, If my phone shuts down due to law battery, it does not turn back on by pressing power button. i have to remove battery and sim card and only then it powers on.
This is reproducible every time. i have wiped the cache once and also have 5.0.2.7 cowomod.
Please advise.
Thanks.

you mean after you recharge it?
or just after it shuts down? because that would be intentional behaviour then

off course after charging it

Are you running a stock battery or an Anker? If I run my Anker down to nothing and it shuts down it won't
charge on USB. I have to pull it and put it on the external charger that came with my two batteries. I don't have this problem with the stock battery.

I am not sure of the different types of battery. I think my issue is that the phone does not turn on. it charges fine.
Thanks.

Stock battery is black and has HTC printed on it. The Anker is White and has, well, "Anker" printed on it. If you have a bad battery it could cause any number of issues. You might try flashing back to your stock nandroid and see if that helps (Isolating software issues from hardware symptoms).

Are you using the old madaco recovery? If so update your recovery in rom manager, that should fix it.

If your phone shuts down due to low battery, instead of taking the battery out to try to get it to go on, try this while having your phone plugged in:

I'm in pyro-ice too, and it works for me !
It also helps a lot when it freezes. I hope this helps.

i think your problem is different. Isnt the lights of your phone on the buttons still on when this happen? Are you sure the battery is off?
It might be "just" the blackouts of screen that some users have. I had some too, but changing to Trebuchet launcher seems to help with that. In the upcoming 1.0.2 release ROM will run Trebuchet, hopefully it will help with your problem.

I read your 1.1.0 thread where you mentioned that the phone cannot be turned on when plugged in. thats what i was doing. I didn't try removing the charger and then turn on. thanks for the help.

have an issue about powerin phone on when i completly drained my battery. after i put it for chargin, notification led was blinking for a long time not like usually (u cant power phone on before orange light is solid).reloaded battery and was waiting like for 10-15 min for led stay solid. gud thing its finally happen.
was on pyr`o`ice 1.0.1 or 1.0.2 dont remember exactly

Which battery are you using?

[Q] Strange Charging Issue

Hi. I have a S-OFF'd, T-Mobile USA Sensation, Im using Leedroid Sensational 1.0 (cwm 4.0.1.5). My phone died, I tried to reboot it, it did turn on for a few seconds. When trying to charge it, it flashes the led light quickly, progressively becoming slower, then the screen flashes white then sits at a blank, black screen for a few seconds, then seems to turn off (screen turns off and led light stops showing up). The device doesnt get hot, so it cant be the charger overheating. I also cant boot into HBOOT. Any ideas?
EDIT: Left it on the charge all night, still does not turn on, it's got to be that the charging issue is still present (or actually, worse) in CWM 4.0.1.5.
EDIT2: I have tried rebooting it via adb, but the computer doesn't detect it.
Do u have cwm 4.0.1.5

Yes CWM 4.0.1.5
Mine did this out of the box, I'm just now trying to get something out of it. Otherwise this pos is going back to htc...
Its worth mentioning that there is a red infared type light above "htc" that fades with the red l.e.d.

Yes, I have the same issue as of this morning. After installing new CWM. It was charging fine before. Last night I let the battery discharge completely and had it on the charger all night.
When I woke up the LED light was off. Upon unplugging the charger and plugging it back in the LED light blinks (orange) a few times and then it goes off.
I can't turn the phone on at all.
EDIT: Looks like it's the issue with the latest CWM. Here is another thread with the same problem.

Think this would work? It charges the battery externally.
Yea it would work externally, provided your battery is ok... Buy a battery just to be sure. They have always come with atleast a trickle of charge in my past experiences. If it boots, flash the stock pyramid ruu. If not, id say either the new battery is dead (rarely) or your sensation is dead. Or buy an external charger, then send it for repair.

Reading other users posts, I think this is an issue from CWM 4.0.1.5, not a hardware issue, but thanks for letting me know.
Im currently rocking the same setup thanks for letting me know about this ill keep an eye on my battery life. Until ClockWorkMod fixes itt
Yup same issue here. Will be buying new battery and/or battery charger to resolve.

I bought a few batteries and an external charger just in case my battery is also fried, although be aware that most of them on the net look like cheap china batteries, so they probably aren't actually 1600MAh.
I honestly think this is BS. It's costing me $16 just to get my phone to boot, I hope Koush or someone else can actually fix the charging issue by CWM 4.0.1.6.
Definitely CWM issue. If your battery is completely discharged, as mine was this morning, here is how to charge your battery without the phone.
It does work. I just charged mine enough to boot up.

Hi, go here and have a read, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137323,
It sounds like a cwm issue you have.
To fix your current issue though you need a battery with some charge in it. There are some ideas out there on how to "jump start" your battery, but i would advise caution using any of the stripped usb cable methods.
Best bet is to get a battery from a friend with a decent charge in it, or put your battery in a friends phone and charge it. Then do the cwm update.
I had the problem, so I updated my CWM and a few days later (now) its dead. LED blinks a few times but thats it.
Any other options ?
Here we go I have the same issue ...
So if all else is working, no error with CWM, what else could be causing the batteries not being charged or takes a veeeeery long time, and still they are not fully charged ?
Battery is not hot, I have rebooted several times, I have tested all kinds of resets, but that does not change anything, still lousy charging.
I have reflashed CoreDroid ROM v2.5 several times, using stock kernel, still no go.
Is the main board malfunctioning, could it be a bad battery, bad cables, what ?

Battery Issue

In the last few weeks i've been having major battery problems with my phone.
The percentage seems to be jumping around so it will show 100% very quickly when charging then quickly drop after not much usage. It always seems to reboot around 20% then I struggle to get it back on and when I do it will show 4% etc.
I've tried resetting the battery stats and two different roms but no luck. Is this likely a hardware issue? If so, could I get it looked at under warranty even though i've unlocked it? It's very frustrating...I like this phone but can't put up with this for much longer and if I have to replace it I might as well just get a nexus 4...
try calibrate your battery.
discharge it, and recharge it while the phone is off for few hours.
Whenever I power off it boots into cwm so can't calibrate. Does twrp behave like this as well?

I've yet to check but I asked in some other thread and the reply I got was while it was a known cwm issue the guy hadn't heard of twrp doing it.

Just switch to TWRP and indeed, it stays off ifyou plug the charger in. I'll try calbrating...
Even after calibration my issue still persists. The rom starts rebooting like crazy as the power drops down to 40% 'ish, the phone is becoming unusable. Is there anything else I can try to debug this? Different radio? ROM? replacement battery?
Have you opened the back of your phone? That really sounds like you have a connection issue with the battery but being that it's a little cable and not pins sort of seems unlikely but possible.

Well I've actually ordered a replacement battery off eBay so I'm going to try that.
What I've noticed is I can charge it to 100% with the phone off. If I turn it on and run it down to say 60% then put it back on charge with its powered on, it says its fully charged after about a minute. Clearly its not charged....

Every time I he to 40% it starts rebooting...above that its fine...strange...

Phone won't power on, but it can charge.

Hello fellow XDA members.
I've been with my beloved Nexus S for a little over a year now. We've been through thick and thin. Until now.
My power button is broken (along with a lot of other nexus s users that I found out by research), but I was able to bare with it by maneuvers with my software (volume rocker wake). It would act as if it's being pressed down constantly, so it would automatically power on when a battery is inserted.
However, this situation is different. I've done research on this one too, and it also seems common. While using my phone as normal (around 20% battery), the screen just turned black and the phone crashed. Seemed like a common kernel issue. So I battery pull, and the phone won't power on.The charging animation still appears if I connect it to a charger or USB.
As I woke up for work the next morning, I brought my phone along with me. It turned on at a random time while it was in my hand, as it would always do if I were to insert a battery. The phone worked for about a week until the same problem happened again.
I've tried rebooting it with ADB, but it's not recognized. I've tried inserting the battery while it's connected to the charger. Nope. Simultaneous button presses, pounding the power button, you name it. I've also tried a different battery, so I know it's not a battery issue.
I have suspicion it has to due with Jellybean, as several other users experience a problem similar to mine, but much more severe (no charging animation).
I'm running Pacman Rom v 18 with Marmite 7.0 Kernel.
Please, for the love of the Lord, can someone please aid me in finding a solution or inform me of a known one?
Thanks!
Please anybody? I really need a solution ASAP! Thanks again!
I'm sorry for the excessive bumping, but I'm just extremely desperate at this point. I cannot afford to go another day without my phone as I'm losing too much business. Does anyone know a solution or anything to try?
When its on the charger does the screen show that it is charging? Or is it just a blank screen and you "assume" that it is charging ?
Could be the kernal, have you flashed another rom ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Yes, it shows the charging animation, so there's life.
I think its the kernel and the rom combo. But the fact is that I can't even access the phone right now. Any solutions? And my power button is broken.
Hmm so there is no way to access recovery?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
There was no way. But the phone turned back on by itself last morning again. I instantly changed my ROM to RasbeanJelly and Matr1x 24.5 CFS. Let's see if the problem comes back.
Thanks anyway, and ill post back here for updates!

Phone randomly turning off?

This is something that has really started to annoy me, It started happening I guess since I put stock ICS on, You take the phone out of your pocket and its turned off by itself, Or even when randomly using it, it just decides to turn itself off, its not a reboot it doesn't come on again. It has done this 5 times today.
I have also noticed when using the phone for any amount of time on the back beside the USB port is roasting hot, to the extent I can still feel the heat when I put it in my pocket.
Anyone any ideas on the issue,
probably it seems battery related
check if the battery fits as it is suppose to be
I had a big problem with this soon after I bought the phone (used).
The fix was fold and cut some kitchen paper and place between phone and battery.
Never a problem since.
Of course, your problem may be software related, if you made changes. Go back to old software if you can.
Good luck.
I've had it, flashed custom Rom and never occured again

Also, if nothing else works (seriously, probably just bad contacts of the battery, so the paper advice should work), there is a rare problem with the phone rebooting (not shutting down, but all is possible) when it switches to 2G, so locking it to WCDMA only could solve it.

I put Viper ROM on at weekend at it happened today, I was using the Gold 2450 battery, I might try the original and see what happens
That happened to me on aosp jb, now I'm on sense jb and so far so good. It only happened when the battery was close to empty
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e
Im having trouble working out what the issue is, I changed the battery yesterday, took it of the charger just now to discover the phone had turned off again
Nevermind, it's even worse now. Here's what happens:
1. I charge and drain the phone to 1% when it turns off but gives me a warning
2. I turn on the phone again and it shows 16%, but turns off without warning way before 1%
3. Every time I turn it on again, it shows a random battery charge (2-10%) and turns off without warning randomly
I don't know what's going on. It's like the calibration is messed up but it shouldn't be since I calibrated the battery. I'm going to buy a new battery and see if that fixes it.
Edit: Actually, I'm gonna go back to ICS, and then to a stock ROM first (not sure which one is it)

Well, that battery is very cheap and poor to be honest.
If they lie so much about the mAh of the battery, I wouldn't trust that battery at all.
Well, try another rom maybe?
ViperS was super-stable for me.
