I have installed a custom ICS ROM with OFFLINE charge disabled. Now my phone is fully discharged. It bots up but as the discharge is happening more quickly than charge, it is rebooting again.
Can somebody please help here. Phone is as good as bricked.
Thanks,

Try wall charger if you are on USB charging, secondly you can have a charger of higher capacity to draw more current.
Tried wall charger, laptop and desktop but same result. How and where to get High capacity charger?

Try getting higher Amp rating charger.
There is one more interesting trick you can do, keep pressing power button before connecting charger (your phone won't boot as battery is dead) then connect charger but keep pressing your power button. Let it go after like 1 minute approximately. Hopefully by then it will have enough charge.
Put your phone in recovery ... charge fr a bit and reboot phone via recovery ... worked for me a couple of times ...

Hello to all XDA-Developers and mortals
After years of using this forum and always being helped by just using the search function, this time I need to make this Post to hopefully get some help.
I have right now a touch Pro, with the original rom from HTC support site on my tPro. (Before it was several different Energy roms)
since a week my only chance to get my tPro charged is, using a USB connection cable since the original charger won't charge furthermore it discharges my device in less than e few minutes. I can actualy watch it sucking it out.
hase anybody an Idea what might fix this problem.
I want to (miss)use this post to thank all the chefs and developers that have worked on improving our everyday experience with our devices.
thank you all.
just go to start-->settings-->system-->battery and should say something about not charging on pc and you should be set from there

there is the option that says [do not charge over USB if conected to PC]
if I uncheck this one it won't even charge over USB, but my problem is that the battery is not charged with the original charger.

have u shut off the phone properly and take out the battery for like 30 seconds and putting it back in and connecting the charger? if that doesnt work, look for a spare USB cable sometimes USB cables give in at times, or look for a usb ac charger
I installed CM 7.1 a few days ago and since then my phone has problem charging using the usb cable. When charging thru usb to pc or usb to wall charger, it indicated charging but battery kept draining slowly.
Then I tried a few other roms, including insertcoin 4.4.4, 4.4.6 and ARHD 6.2.1 and the problem persist, even with brightness at ~30%, wifi off. I checked the running apps and it has only a few apps running.
Does any one have the same problem? Can someone help me with this? Thanks.
Edited:
Forgot to mention, when the phone was charging, sometime i would get message "Unable to charge, phone is using more current than the USB cable can deliver. Please turn off phone and close unused apps." when i wasn't using the phone at all.

Do you have another usb cable to try?
If that doesn't work you need to make sure you have the most recent CWR installed, I think the recent one is blue in text. Just go to the Rom Manager app and see if you have the most current recovery flashed onto your phone.
I had this same problem on my old desire with cheap cables bought off ebay. Bought some genuine HTC ones and solved the problem straight away.

My cable is the original HTC cable and I tried another cable from Nokia. Same problem. I have a stock 1520 battery and a 1800 cheap battery i bought from ebay. I think my recovery is the most current one, which is 4EX touch.
Is my battery just bad? I realized sometimes it charged up 1~2 % and then started draining.
Overheating
Hi,
I had a similar problem, the phone was plugged but not charging. It was because of a overheating of the battery. In the battery info page, instead of charging it said overheating. I unplugged it, let it cool down, plugged it again and it was charging.
my battery status never said overheating. it indicates charging but the battery level drops. I also realize sometimes the battery level stayed the same for quite a long while but sometimes it drops pretty rapidly. has my battery gone bad or just the rom? any one got an idea?
okay, now i am using Battery Monitor Widget and found that either charging through PC usb or wall charger, the maximum charging current is about 120 mAh. As far as i know, wall charger should be charging at 1000 mAh and pc at 500 mAh.
Can someone tell me what's wrong? and how i can fix it?
Thanks!

You've tried a different cable, so try another charger. If this doesn't fix it then you should try flashing firmware and ROM back to stock and see if the problem persists, if it does then it is probably a hardware fault.
battery level weirdness sensation xe stock ics
I have an issue where the indicated battery level keeps dropping even when the phone is on charge with the original HTC wall charger. I have also tried another wall charger- same outcome. Also getting the message that current draw exceeds charging current. Once or twice phone has shut down due to low battery. But here's the weirdness....I take the battery out, put it back in and 'hey presto' the battery level is fine. It seems the phone only 'thinks' the battery is not charing, but it is. Any ideas as to a solution would be appreciated.
I also have the same problem with HTC Incredible S fake charging pls help thx

Ive been using my s3 for about 40 minutes on CM10. Plugged into a dual usb charger connected to not ip port, which in the past i have used fine. I have lost 5% battery in this time. Current widget doesn't work yet with S3. Suggestions?
Edit - The first time I got the phone after a full charge and discharge, while plugged into stock charger and before anything root, the same problem happened.

From what I heard, the charger can't charge the phone fast enough when you are using it thus the losing charge while plugging in. If you are talking about losing percentage right after you disconnect the phone from the charger, that is a feature, I do not know at the top of my head why it does it.
If charging through USB port (and many car chargers) you're capped at 500mA vs 700+ for wall chargers. You can install a kernel that supports fast charging and you will get 700mA through USB.

I'm having the same issue whether charging from usb or a power outlet. Charges for a bit initially, then drains. Happens with different cords, too. I'll pick it up and it will feel warm, see that the battery is lower than when I plugged it in, then put it down. Then it cools off and starts charging again. Any ideas?
Same here except
i have the same issue, i had stock Touchwiz and suddenly the phone started to discharge while on charging outlet, tried different chargers, outlets, different ports, etc. still wouldnt work, i even deleted several applications and turned off several phone functions, etc. still nothing, then i rooted to CM10.1 and the same issue still presists, the phone charges a bit then discharges weather i use it or not. the only solution to charge it, it seems to be by turning off the phone. i think it has to do with the usb port on the phone as i even had the battery changed and it still would discharge while on a charger.

Hi, i know this subject is already exists in here, but it still have no answer. My sensation need 6 - 8 hours to fully charge from 10% to 100%, is there someone can help me to solved my problem?
This happen everyday, so don't ask me to remove the battery and try again because i've tried it.
Are you charging your mobile via a charger connected to a power outlet or are you charging via usb connected to a pc? How old is your battery?
it is a common HTC's issue after rooting the device
everyone has percentage mireadings while charging the device

Has it always been like that or started happening? When mine started doing that I replaced my battery, charging times went back to normal and battery life was a lot better also.
It happens to me with my original battery which I think is dead because it lasts not much time. Buy on my anker battery it charges really fast, with the same charger. So the problem is your battery I think, as on mine

What rom are you using. Sometimes my sense 5 rom misreads ac for usb and charges damn slowly.
Happy to help.
If your charging via usb connected to pc then charging will be half day, its because usb port is for data sending and not charging, so USB outputs very low volt charge and so device like phone charges so slow
If your charging with adapter into AC outlet, you could check if your using right cable(there are data cables where there are little wires inside so again it cannot output that power to the device and there is cables for data+charge with bigger cables inside)
P.S. Stock HTC cable provided is not the best wire....
Mine sensation is charging about 2h40min from discharge(10% - 6%) to full charge(100%)

It's already happened for along time.
When first purchase it is not like that.
I've replace the battery, but not with original one nor anker, and the charging time become faster about 1 hour than before

I use sensation xe. my telephone charging time 12 hours
So... I purchased a t-869 tab from someone.
-I got it at 100% battery, immediately plugged it in.
-It was on and plugged in, battery dies. Doesnt charge at all.
-Wont charge when off.
-Doesn't show the X over the charging icon, shows the proper lightning bolt animation.
-Did a factory reset through recovery, booted with 100% battery. (immediately after showing 0%)
-Stayed on for about an hour, didn't charge when plugged in.
-Died again.
Any ideas? I have 3 Samsung chargers, 1 rocketfish. All act the same way.
It will stay powered on when plugged in without any problems.
I figured it was a software issue based on all my searching.
Flashed CWM and CM11, no dice.
Tried to flash the kernel for the t869 in the PA thread, but now it's stuck at the CM screen..
i flashed the PA rom and GApps, it booted.
still won't charge.
safe to assume my battery is dead? any way to test/confirm?
so... unplugged it.
it died.
I try to turn it back on, no chance whatsoever.
I plug the usb cord in, BUT NOT into the wall, it boots with 100% on the battery.
WTF? guess i'll see how long it lasts.
seems to be dropping fast. plugging it in shows charging, but doesnt stop it from decreasing.
Are you using the original charger and cable ?

1 Are you using the original galaxy tab charger (I found that the newer/cheap chargers only "surface" charge mine )?
2 Have you tried a other charging cable (could be a data cable your using charges really slow battery % keeps decreasing?)?
