Hi, I bought a LG Optimus V used unaware of it's battery issues until I took it out of the shipment box. The device came with 2 batterys, one fully charged and one that's broken. Despite the fact that one is fully charged, when I insert it into the phone nothing happens the phone thinks it's completely dead but when I put the same battery into my friends phone which is the same model it's says it charged! Is there anything I can do to fix it? The only way I can get it to power on is by plugging in a usb cable to give direct power! I just want it to boot off the battery though! Please help thanks!

Hi all,
Yesterday I plugged my phone in when I went to sleep. When I woke up, I noticed it wasn't charging, and I couldn't turn it on. I tried to plug it in to my computer with no success. I also tried to remove the battery, and launch it into recovery mode. It seems that my only option left is to try and get a replacment. That being said, I was wondering if I could possibly get it replaced with the EVO V? Or would I be stuck getting a new Triumph? Also, if anyone has any suggestions on how I might be able to get it working again, that would be great.
Any help is appreciated.
also i checked the website, Triumph is 280 bucks while the evo is 260 (20% off)

Hey man i have a triumph with a dead charger port. I went on amazon and bought this ........

It comes with two batteries that way you can charge one while you are using the other one. Plus the batteries are 1600mAh as opposed to the 1320mAh one that came with your phone! Works like a charm for me. Just have to charge them externally like a digital camera battery!
my battery was dead, i went to amazon and ordered this

so i was using my HTC 7 Pro on Dynamics v2.0 custom rom for a year then i updated to v 2.2, everything was fine, but after some days i found my phone off, i though it was the battery, i plugged in the charger but nothing and after some minutes the phone became hot, i tried with PC but same thing, i took it to 3 repairers but they said they didnt found the problem, so if someone can help with anything it would be appreciated.
Thanks
Did you try to use a new battery?
Does the phone show the red charging led, when you plug in the charger?
Hi All,
I have LG G Flex 2 H959 which is not rooted.
One day the phone just switched off after I was on Chrome for less than a minute, the battery was at 70%+ when that happened.I was unable to turn it on immediately so I went to charge it however I noted that the red charging indicator light was not on and stopped charging it.
I tried switching it on again the next day and the screened turned on for the first time with the low battery screen. I proceeded to charging the phone which managed to charge with the indicator lights for less than 5 mins before it stopped charging. I tried switching it on several times with the volume up/down held and some of the tries allowed me to enter the phone until the optimising of apps started (with a lot of difficulty) before crashing again.
More recently, even the low battery screen failed to switch on too. The screen did manage to come back on after I disassembled the back and moved the cables and battery about a little to only die again after charging. I had tried to connect the phone to the PC with the volume up button pressed, but the phone was unable to switch or be detected.
Anyone with experience in this issue able to identify the cause of this? I understand it could be an issue with the battery or motherboard. If it is a battery issue I would buy a replacement to do it myself. However if anyone pins it to a motherboard issue, I would just give up on the phone as they are costly and not worth the purchase. All you inputs will be helpful, thank you.
dissemble the back again and check battery voltage and also external charge (Carefully) if possible..
Also there maybe fault with the charging / usb port..
Rust ? and hence short-circuiting??
Get yourself a new battery!

Thanks for the replies, ok I will check the voltage and search how to check the external charge before purchasing a battery. I will also check the usb charging board and see if I can purchase it online, haven't been able to find a place which sells one piece.
I did not observe any rust on the circuitry, that should not be the issue.
I started having this for quite a while now.
With charger the phone can boot if it's the LG one (tried powerbank, didn't work)
Without charger it bootloops.
==========ADDITIONAL BEHAVIOR============
Device heats up after a while, making the bootloop worse...
The LG logo keeps flashing.... Won't stop until I pop the device open and remove the battery
What's working:
Download mode
System (used to)
What seems to be broken:
Recovery (Boots to recovery but exits it immediately)
Need help here...
Please let me know what could have caused the issue thx
Update: Planning to get a new battery.
LG G Flex 2 H959
Not Rooted, stock 5.1.1
22/5/18: Given up on repair, its irreparable at this stage
I think your battery is dead, i had the same problem, the phone didn't turn on, only with the charger pluged could be used normally. So i bought a battery on ebay and the problem ended.
Oh thx... Will see if that helps
Any more methods guys??? Need them urgently
Anyone?
BTW, is the flashing LG logo a battery issue?
Just to confirm, yes the battery is the issue. My G Flex 2 (H959) experienced the exact same issue, and was fixed by a simple battery replacement. Remember reading several threads about this as well, and most of the then managed to fix it with a battery replacement
Well thx I fixed it
Bought a new battery
The problem returns.
Now the device won't boot, after using for a couple months.
It randomly switched off when I was watching YouTube. Then it started up again and switched off. Pls help.
Note: I can try to start it again when I pull the battery, but same result. Using the NEW battery now.
I feel like I need to start this thread up again.
I have tried using a air dryer to heat the motherboard. The phone still isnt booting properly. Help needed here.
Your Mobo is faulty and defective, same as 90% of all LG G flex 2 released
Yeah, new battery only fixes this issue for like a month, then it returns. I guess its motherboard failure and it either destroys the battery, or isn't able to charge it properly. Guys in other posts here are posting some fixes with heatgun, hair dryer, baking in the oven etc. I baked mine for 220°C for 10 minutes in aluminium foil... and no ... it just killed the motherboard totally. The phone is awesome, but it only works for a year and a half, then you can throw it in the trash. I had my hands on four of these devices, and they did it all. One is still with me, but just recently it started rebooting out of nowhere, so I guess its just a matter of time before this one dies too.
I gave up on fixing mine totally... Let's hope my G5 doesnt face the same fate
Hello gyz, i ve a one plus one and its bricked now its not booting to recovery and Fastboot its only shows one plus logo and powered by android in half erased and sometimes when plugged to charger it shows the battery is low and some Chinese blah blah and when tried to boot Fastboot its get off and its stand off for somtimes.....
Can any one have a solution for this
Plzz help
Sorry for my bad English.....
let the phone charger for 10 minutes and then turn it on while the charger is still connected....if its boot then the problem is the battery...buy new battery and it will solved your issues....
This happened with me as well sometime back, I had to replace the battery. And in my case the charging strip also broke (may be a short-circuit).
Service centre people said that my motherboard needs a replacement and will cost around 15-17K, however, I found a website which fixes any hardware issues in a nominal cost (doing a chip level repair) and if a part needs a replacement they will only replace that specific part. GadgetWood is their name. Google it.
I will suggest to leave the phone connected to the stock charger overnight if a few minutes doesn't help. Hopefully that will fix the problem.
All the best.
But i ve charge it and then it get stucked on one plus half logo for a long time
The charger must be connected when you turn on your phone...that is how you check whether the battery is good or bad...
