[Q] LG P920 Battery problem - LG Optimus 3D

Problem is that about a year ago my phone wanted to update it self , so i did , sadly. Problems begin battery showed up to 0% , try'd different chargers , different battery's.. nothing. So i just bought a new phone , but now i hope to get that one working again. So past 2 week's i looked every corner what this forum has and can't find solution. I readed in some topic that one guy got he's battery problem fixed by installing ThiaiZ O3D V2.7.1 , so i did everything what i needed and installed fine "ThiaiZ O3D V2.8 GB" (2.7.1 link is down) after that i put my phone to charger and thought it ended my problems cause it was charging till 2% so there it stoped and didn't go up. I even let calibrate my batterys after that in official store hoped that it will fix it but no. So i found somewhere another option to check on and cleared my "Google services framework" data. Nothing evey time when i put it to charger it will charge till 2% , i let it to charge about 24hours nothing changed.
Hopefully i was specific enough with my problem and someone here has any ideas what i should do.
Thank you.

The problem (unless battery is bad, which I doubt) is LG's crummy updater software. Use LG Flash Tool to reflash your firmware
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=39269819
Once drivers are set up properly on your pc (step 1), you can proceed with flashing the .bin (firmware) and .fls (baseband) provided there or whatever .bin or .fls of your choosing.

I actually followed your thread from step 1) to 2.5.
I didnt install XBSA v8 or vR3D rom , so magically it started charging after about 30min. Thankyou for that , acctually can't thank enough for that.
BUT... Now i have a little more problem... it dosent matter how much it stays in charger it chargers till 94% and not further up. So i thought that 94% is also a nice one , but even if i dont use phone it will drop like 2% in 30sec , so after 30minutes the phone is empty.. Any more suggestions?
Btw the thread what you linked me , it is amazing for noob like me , biiiig thanks for that.

Yeah, sometimes they give out. It just seems suspicious it started after updating.

I have the same problem with my P920. I can`t find a solution for this problem.
Sometimes drops from 80% to 1%, connecting to the charger nothing happens. Sometimes stays at 1% and a cross in the battery icon
I have 2 batterys, same behavior. Any solution?
Thanks.

If you have an overerclock app it could be the settings. I had mine on performance once (bad idea) and I had sudden power loss.
Otherwise it could be corrupt system from bad flash.

I have tried the method from your tutorial XBSA V8 , step by step, didn't solve. at this moment,writing this message, I have 1% in battery icon.(passed from 64% to 1%) even doing wipe cache and Calvin didn't solved.
I`m using Win7 x64 for the process, can be this the problem for the bad flashing?
Sent from my LG-P920 using xda app-developers app

Win 7 x64 is what I have. Recheck step 1. Very critical for successful flash. Also be sure you uninstalled all LG drivers and software from your pc and reboot it before beginning. All antivirus should be off when extracting files. Read all details carefully. The 4 wipes in recovery before installing the ROMs is important too.
Also be sure your charger is good, and that the battery is making good connection inside the phone (no bent contact pins, etc.).

Batteries not charging.

Hi, so i say batteries because i already tried 3 different ones. My problem started in gingerbread when i could not charge pass 50~60%, won't even matter how much time i have it "charging", then i rooted and install the AT&T release of ICS 4.0.4, then some days later it started to won't charge pass 1% and sometimes lowers to 0% and if i disconnect turns off, and connected never charges. I have tried with different chargers also, i have tried every forum "solution", factory resetting, procedure and no luck. If i go into CWM and delete batterystats or to do anything, the phone doesn't turn off, that's weird also. I bought an external charger and charged the three batteries to full, and when i put it in the phone, android still says 1% or 0% and turns off if i disconnect.
So anybody who can help me with this, i would extremely grateful. Thanks

Must be the charger, or cable if you are using usb. Try different once and see.
get BetterBatteryStats and see if there any bad wakelocks.

Hi, yes i have bbs installed and i dont see any weird wakelocks, right now is just audio, which i read is normal. Today i get a 4th new charger and cable OEM Samsung to try, but honestly i dont think it will help.
The thing that confuses me the most, is that i charged every battery I've tried in an external charger, so the battery IS actually full, but when i put it in the phone, android still says 1% or even 0%. :crying:

Charge the battery in another phone or device, if you can. That would be the only option.
To be honest it sounds like something you may have installed or run on your phone, you said it started only a few days after upgrading to ICS which I'm guessing is how long it took you to finish restoring everything from GB.
My advice is to do a complete reset to the phone using kies, let it run for a few days with the minimal stuff you need and then start adding few apps at a time and wait to see if everything runs ok.

He can't do anything to it, no battery life, it will get stuck at flash or reset (kies) and brick.
The charger doe not charge, so he can;t even do it with the usb plugged. If he had power there are lot's of thing to test, ODIN or flash.

I'm out of warranty time now.
He said he already used an external charger and it didn't help, unless all 3 of his batteries are trash it's an issue with the phone.
He also said as long as his phone stays connected it runs fine so using kies should work I guess.
If nothing works I'd say it's some type of hardware issue and that means he will have to pay for a repair or he will have to upgrade.

Just take it to a small shop that unlocks or fixes phones, something small but nice looking, with bunch of phones for sale. Not Bestbuy or something)
They would usually ship the phone to a factory for fixing, that means they ship it to Samsung facility where some dude does work on the side.
I had my main board replaced to OEM for $190 where Rogers doing same would have charged me $420.
Your problem should not cost much, but you can;t put price on how relived you would be once it's fixed)

Hi, just to make an update, i did uninstall some stuff with root uninstaller, now the battery charges!! BUT to about 15~17%, then starts to discharge itself even connected to a charger. :crying:
So I suggest to do what I said before, start from fresh and install slowly, something must have screwed with your rom.

Would you recommend to install the stock release of ICS 4.0.4 or a custom rom? if so which is the best ?Im considering using this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763195. Thank you
OK, so i installed this custom rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1763195, the battery charges to about 19%, then starts discharging itself being connected to the charger. This is driving me crazy, i have tried so may things and nothing, been a few weeks without using the phone normally. :crying:
First go fresh stock using kies to see if the issue still persists, if it does it's probably a hardware issue. If you know someone that has a device with a battery thats works fine and it fits your device ask him to try it out so you can be certain it's your device and not all of your batteries.

Ok, i did all that i could, reinstalling stock GB 2.3.5, same problem. So im pretty sure it is a hardware issue, or possibly the 3 batteries i have are trash. I will see some place in san antonio texas, that can fix it. Thanks for the help everyone. Sadly this stuff happens, but what can you do.
PS. If someone sees this and thinks that can fix my problem ill gladly discuss payment for your work. Pm me. Thanks.

Same issue with mine. Yesterday, 8/20/12, I broke a sim card connector pin and Nexus S wouldn't recognize sim card after a reboot. Rebooted the device again after the warning message: Sim card not detected/found.
Now Nexus S won't boot. Computers (Windows & OSX) can't recognize it's connected and 5 different charges won't show that the battery is charging. Battery still has a charge as I tested it in another Nexus S. When the battery is in, the device heats up. When connected to a power source, the device heats up.
Used Unbrickable resurrector with no success. UR shows: Device not found, No device detected.
Finally, I was running Jelly Bean from OTA update and not rooted. I noticed that in the past week or two the stock Andoird keyboard would cause force closing of apps or exceed processor threshold of 35% even if there was no program running. Google Now was also sucking the battery after the JB update. Turned that battery drain off on the other Nexus. Also, the Android Media process was taking a drain on the processor. Usually running at 40-50%.
Bought this used from CowBoom and hoping the extended warranty will replace or fix the broken sim card connector and unbrick the phone.
Luckily I have an iPhone 4S and a 2 yr old HTC Desire to turn to.
I've read on another thread, perhaps?, that two other users in the past week or so have had this same problem.

Same happened to me. The Unbrickable resurrector also didnt detect the phone. so i made the Unbrickable Hardware Mod (httpxx://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1566475) remove the xx from httpxx. now my phone is being detected and the tool is able to load its files. but still the phone is dead, no thing happens and the tool shows no device found after it loads the files. but when i picked GALAXY S from the drop down menu. the tool loads the files and now both the tool and the phone shows download mode with an android shoveling dirt. heimdall now detects the phone but it doesnt work caz its not a GALAXY S. So let us know what happens if u try this mod. cheers
The exact same thing happened to me. Strangely, it's happening with JB roms. And yeah, i told my problem in a very educated way on the ROM topic and they simply deleted the post, how nice.
Anyway, i just sent the phone to the warranty almost three weeks ago, i'm waiting for them to fix it or give me a new one.

well ... i don't have these tools to do hardware level of modifications ...
anyway , i just send to repair , i think , the motherborad or something should be replaced ...
i was thinking about buying a new phone such as Galaxy Nexus if my Nexus S can not be repaired or way too expensive to repair...
i had same issue a few days after upgrading to JB JRO03E. i got the main board replaced under warranty. took about 2 and half weeks.
the phone came back with GB installed but OTA'd to ICS then JB JRO03L.
I had the same issue running cm10-0823. Screen froze while sitting idle. Pulled and replaced battery, and phone won't come back.
Looks like cm10/jb is causing some burn-out in circuit board; cpu, memory...?

as i have heard is that new bootloader messes with hummingbird CPU ...
I have exactly the same problem I flashed Codename Android ROM 3.4.1, done some overclocking (only 1200 MHz) and the device crashed. Well, nothing unusual. But I removed the battery, I think it was just when the device was rebooting - I think display turned on, I noticed some flash when the battery was already removed.
I tried to turn on the device, but it's dead. Display doesn't turn on, UnBrickable Resurrector says device not found.
I can send the phone to the warranty, but it's unlocked. Do you think they will find out it's unlocked? Even if the download mod doesn't work etc?
What should I do?
Well, I happened to end up with the same problem. Installed latest cm 10 nightly, started rebooting my phone. The moment I restarted it from CWM I realised that I forgot to flash some mod in CWM so I pulled the battery to go into recovery. Phone bricked, no input at all. Sent my phone on warranty, I hope they won't mind it had unlocked bootloader and cm10 on it ;P
That's just a bit stupid to be honest, pulling the battery while booting why not just wait?
Sent from my Nexus S
Now I know it's stupid. Do you think they will repair it even though it's cm flashed and unlocked?
i sent mine to repair and they fixed without paying a dime!

I had the same issue back in August just after I flashed 4.1.1/JRO03E. It just died one day while listening to music. Took about 3 weeks to get the mainboard replaced under warranty. It came back bootloader unlocked and with Gingerbread 2.3.3 installed.

Battery doesn't hold charge

Hello, my Optimus 3D P920 battery acts very weird. It doesnt hold charge, it shows as charging but after i unplug, it says low battery. I bought a replacement battery and still the same. Bought an external battery and it still acts the same. Today it charged up and stayed full up until i restarted the phone. Then it showed 2-3 percent of charge. Battery calibration didnt work. Could it be software that is faulty?I'm on 2.3.5, so should i update to official ICS?Any suggestions?

Okay flashed WKPARKS bootloader, flashed kernel you provided, but battery is still on X. What does this mean: P920/SU760: revert charging mode support to fix 0% battery (v1.21) in WKPARKS thread. Is there any option to revert battery usage or something in the new 1.21 version?
EDIT: by moving one of the metal pin things on the battery connector i managed to turn on the phone and it showed me 100% battery. Then i turned off the phone and played with the pin a lil bit more. Then again it showed 0 percent after turning on. So i guess the problem is in the battery connection port as the middle pin is faulty i guess. Now i need to purchase the whole small connector port and solder it. so far i didnt see any sites selling these charging ports separately. If anyone finds it, drop me a link. Amd thank everyone of ya for the help
I have the same problem, and a search on the internet learned me that many people have this problem.
I'm on 4.04 (official 30a rom).
When I load a battery with another O3D, then it's on 1% immediately when I put it in my phone.
And then when I put it back in the other phone, it starts to load there as well again as if it's really on 1% again.
I can only use my phone now while it's on a cable.
None of the possible solutions that I found on the web work.
It seems to be a hardware problem. It got worse over time. First it only loaded, and then emptied quickly. Now it doesn't load at all anymore.
I'm having this issue too. A way to work around it that works for me:
When charging.
1. Go to the hidden menu (3845# *920#).
2. Choose port settings.
3. Unplugg charger.
4. Select CP USB.
5. Press OK.
Now the phone shows 100% battery and you can use it untill the battery dies.

My phone is on 'No Retention"
When I played around with this option "AP USB" also seemed to work.
(work = back to original failing battery charging status)
---------- Post added at 08:38 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:35 AM ----------
I fixed this problem by screwing the battery connection up...
I used a screwdriver to push and pull a bit with the battery connection points on my phone, now it's a bit messed up and bended etc.... but it works...
My original intention was to replace the connection with a working one (my father's old O3D's battery connection) but I wasn't able to get it out in the proper way. (did not really know what the proper way was). So halfway when I figured that I wasn't really pulling it out but more like pulling it apart, I quickly tried to see if it was still working, after pushing things a bit back in shape, and it was!
Lucky me!
I'm not suggesting anybody to follow the same approach, and if you do I'm certainly not responsible for it.
but that's what worked for me.
All I fear now is that it will work for a while... and then something will move again, and it'll be the end of the phone anyway
But if I can use it till the S4 Active is released, then I'm a happy guy!
When i choose AP USB it says "slow recharge" on charge!? And by choosing "no retention" there is no change! Whatz about the other choices? AP UART. ..?

I tried them all, I think.
I'm on 'slow charge' if I'm not using the official LG cable. It still seems to charge pretty quick then.
Just for the record: my 'fix' only lasted for a few days.
At least it showed to my problem was with the connector between battery and phone. I'm going to see if I can get it replaced.
Only one solution is flash original bootloader from no for sale phone,but you can get only froyo e non imei on it but charge battery and keep all of charge in normal mode.

On CMW make full backup of system on sd,copy on pc hdd for future,on sd in backup file nandroid.md5 open in notepad delete all of content and save,copy and overwrite boot.img from this file http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=35429965#post35429965 last reply
advance restore from ext sd ,restore only boot.img.
reboot
the system if you on other of froyo release no start up but if you connect charger it will charge 100% of bater and hold them,only for test,after you can copy and overwrite the boot.img with backup from your pc and will be on same situation become backup.
For this moment last solution stay on froyo without imei because when you downgrade you can't flash baseband so no net coverage on it.
I wait for someone ho can upload original fw version v08i to get work all of thinks in froyo.last chance.
If you have backup of your first firmware you are lucky.
Hi. I've had the same problem with my p920. Tried everything what I've found on the net, but nothing did helped. Day before it happened I've restored my phone to stock because of the screen(the bottom of the screen was unresponsive). The best luck that I've had 2 months of warranty left. So they changed the whole front of my phone. And main board. Battery was the same. I think yours case is the same like mines. Hardware failure.

[Q] Sensation not working

Hello,
I am an owner of HTC Sensation, rooted with Android Revolution 7.3.
My phone has ~1,5 years, since its first days i was using Android Revolution ROM, never had any problem.
Today, my phone first lost signal. Itcould not connect to any mobile network so I tried to restart it, when i got back to it after 5 minutes, the phone was stuck on beats audio logo and when i touched it, it felt very hot, it was never that hot even I used it for hours playing some games or browsing internet. (I think it was processor, down side of the phone, below battery, but because of that battery got a bit hotter too) I had to pull off the battery, I've waited till it got cold and tried to run again but rom was not working so i reflashed it from my sd card, after the next restart (phone did not get hot) when phone was checking installed apps, it simply turned itself off. Before battery showed around 80% charged, after reinstall 30% and it happened in max 10 minutes ,but after that shut down I could not turn it on. LED was not working, I tried pulling off battery, charging it, charging without abttery then connecting it, trying to reboot with abs but PC could not see the device.
The only thing I noticed, when i was trying tocharge it for the first time, processor was getting hotter but LED was not working, but then, it simply went cold.
I have no idea what I could do more here, it looks like hardware problem but te only thing i could not check was putting a new battery and try it then. Is there anything I can do more about it?
For any help, thank you.
PS: When the phone 'died' it was using faux123's 1,5 GHz kernel which came with the ROM. AsI said, before this event, everything was working perfectly, no sign of this incoming event. No restarts, freezes or crashes.
*If it matters, i was charging phone every 4-5 days, never let it go below 10%, bettery is from HTC EVO 1730mAh (original).
can you boot to the bootloader?
if yes do it and select from there reboot
see how it goes

Re-tried these methods, hoped I had done soemthing wrong before. I saw the artice before, was hoping there are different ways to revive the phone. Tried this, says device not found. Looks like the only method would be this JTAG box but it's a bit expensive or try to send it to repair.
Anyway thank you for your time, I appreciate it.
-And if I might ask, any idea why the phone heated up itself on nearly last startup as I mentioned in my thread? It would be allright if the phone just died before this event, now it just makes me think there might be bigger hardware problem which just caused the death and it's not worth repair.

Oneplus One Reboot Issue : Suggestion or Help Needed

My OPO is having a reboot issue, was on cos13, cm14.1 and ubuntu with mutirom,
Symptoms
1. the phone stays on if connected to a charger or powerbank.
and without charger it bootloops at the 1+ logo
2. in switched off state, when charger is connected the battery sometimes shows 0% and increases to 100%
3. with charger i entered cm recovery, removed the charger, the phone stayed all night long with cm recovery menu display on.
after draining the battery, i plugged back charger and the phone in switched off state did show the regular charging animation and took the usual time to full charge.
after full charge I removed the charger, tried to power on the phone boot loops at 1+ logo.
4. without charger it can enter fastboot mode.
5. with charger it can boot into os, shows charging, led lit up, but after removing charger it won't stay long, also if opening camera it turns off.
6. even on powerbank it can boot up and stay switched on. and work normally (camera etc anything)
(7. while turned off and on charger the animation shows charging but the top led isn't on.) - I don't remember it lighting up on charging while switched off
8. the night before this issue occured, my phone rebooted twice while watching youtube. and in the previous nights also I noticed battery dropping overnight.
what all I tried,
1. fastboot flashed cos, - not solved
2. flashed using Qualcomm USB port tool - not solved.
3. ran the make_ext4fs /dev/block/mmcblk0p15 command in twrp. - not solved.
4. erased and flashed persist.img - not solved.
so what could be the problem, opo is now my secondary phone, now using op3 as primary.
The battery is at its end of its life....replace the battery and all your problem will be gone...
you're not the only one that have experiences this problem (i have seen more then 10 people having the same problem)...last year and this year there a lot of people having bootloop problem due to dying battery...factory reset, flash stock rom and etc won't help you solved this problem...
i personally have this problem last year and after i replace the battery all my problem gone...i think Oneplus made OPO batteries only lasted for 2 and a half year....

thanks for the reply i guessed that, but still wasn't sure, can it be also due to any issues to board, anyway since i've done with flashing and all i'll try an OP service center, and hope it won't costs me big.

Nope it is not issues with the motherboard but batteries...the phone can be turn on like normal when charger is connected and goes into bootloop once the charger is disconnected....its a clear sign that the battery is dying...when it connected to the charger, it may look like the battery is full but it is not...just buy a new battery and all your problem will be gone...you can try flashing lot of rom, revert to stock or whatever you do in fastboot but it ain't gonna help you...it might boot normally but within an hour it will goes back to bootloop....
like i said before i was on the same pages as you last year...all the flashing stuff didn't work until i replace the battery....there no issues with the motherboard whatsoever....my phone still work atm without any bootloop problem...
feel free to go to OP services center if you want, if they tell you it was a motherboard issues then you have been screwed by the services center by repairing something that is still in good condition and you gonna pay more then just a batteries afterwards...

I have almost exactly the same problem. The thing is I cannot find a way to enter multirom recovery even on a charger. When on a charger it tries to boot into my primary rom but gets stuck on it endlessly.
Are you sure its the battery? I mean, mine charges to 100% when plugged in and doesnt seem to have any problem with charging. Mine did it a few days ago, it went into a bootloop for no reason. I havent touched anything for a year and it happened so randomly and lost everything I had on it...

Hey dude Thanks a lot... I was facing exactly same issue for last 2 days... I bought OPO on Dec 5 th 2014... I think its battery only works 2 years...
@iPusak Gaoq™, tried to get a suitable battery online but the shipping charge killed most deals, some were even counterfeits, so finally I decided to visit an op service centre, they replaced the battery with a new one, now my OPO is good as new. thanks again.
I was just going to post, about my issue, but the forum suggested your post. I read the first post, and yes, I am facing the exact same problem. Taking a picture and the phone shuts off. Vibrating from getting a notification and restart.
And the saddest part, the phone won't boot into OS if is it not plugged to PC or AC power.
My Opo is almost two years old. Can you suggest a good battery replacement for me?

Hard to suggest which batteries is good if you planning to bought it online cause there no way you can know whether the batteries you gonna buy is original or OEM...only when you bought the batteries in a retail store then you can see whether its original or OEM and yes the differences between both batteries is noticeable...
