[Q] Battery stuck at 0% - ONE Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Oneplus One's battery got inflated and I had to order one for ebay, finally got it. So I proceeded to replace the battery. Done.
Now the battery meter is stuck at 0%, the phone boots while connected to power, but turns off immediately after disconnecting, is there something I could have done wrong?

I'd rather ask this question in the official OnePlus forums (or post it there as well).

[Q] Boot / Battery issue

Phone sits overnight, fully charged battery discharges from 40% to just about empty. Only in this event will the phone boot and charge as normal. Stock current rom.
Now once its on it works as normal, except that once its booted it will not power off and reboot or power cycle and reboot until it has sat for some hours.
At this point it may show a black screen, show a grey battery, show a green battery with dots under it. Unable to get it into bootloader mode without a jig.
Jig may or may not work without pulling and replacing the battery.
Flashed stock bootloaders with Odin, same thing.
Any thoughts?

[Q] Battery dead or just drained?

Hey folks,
I'm sitting here with a very stylish paperweight. Can't charge it. No LED, not even the blinking red one. Just nothing.
Here is what happened:
My phone started to get pretty hot, so I decided to turn it off, just for safety. It had around 90% battery left at this time. When I turned it back on an hour later, the battery percentage was at about 18-19%. I used the phone as usual. No strange behavior, no sign of malfunction. After using it for quite a bit, the phone shut down as expected. The battery percentage fell in an usual matter. It went off normally.
Now, when I try to charge it, it doesn't seem to show any vital signs.
Here is what I tried:
- charging it for 2 hours with HTC Wallcharger, also tried out 2 other chargers
- Power + VOL UP
- Power + VOL DOWN
- both with a bright light pointed at the sensor
Still nothing. Connecting it to PC won't do anything good atm.
Is the battery dead, or is it just terribly drained? Did I even manage to fry the MB? Is there anything I could do?
Turning it in for warranty repair won't be an option, since it's (you guessed it) rooted and therefore unlocked. I flashed CM11 nightly about a week ago, had Codename Lungo before.
This is quite a bummer. I hope, you good people might be able to help me.
Thanks in advance,

[Q] Battery stays at 50%.

So I got my hands on a problematic OPO a few days ago that wont charge at all.
It wont charge when connected to the wall charger nor when plugged in a PC. The only way the previous owner was able to charge it was taking to a phone repair service where they would just take out the battery, charge it using an external battery charger and put it back in. Then the phone shows 50% battery all the time, never goes up or down, and lasts around 2-3 days. The owner got tired of visiting the repair shop every 2 or 3 days to do that and handed it over to me. I thought the USB flex cable is the problem so I ordered this one: (oops cant post links) to replace it but it wont be here for another 3 weeks.
So these are the facts so far:
Battery has been replaced, so its not a faulty one(or so I have been said)
Charger and usb cable are OK as I have tried a few different ones.
Phone connects to the PC and can browse it for files.
When switched ON and plugged in battery says "Not Charging"
When switched OFF the green battery animates to 100% but never goes up more than 50% permanently.
Any ideas on where I can find an external battery charger(not a powerbank)? Ebay and Aliexpress don't seem to have anything like that.
Did I make the right choice ordering that flex cable or did I only waste my money?
Any ideas as to what the problem might be? Anything I can try at the moment?
Thanks in advance
Best regards,
Just a thought, but have you tried flashing the factory images, or even another ROM? It could be a software issue, but if that doesn't work then I am not sure what the problem is.

Isn't this the stock one?
installed ColorOS to rule out the software but no luck. It says: "Battery error. Check the battery contact status". Should I order a new battery or am I wasting even more money?
Battery Stuck at 50%
Hi All,
Even I have faced this issue 2 days back. But it was resolved when I replaced my battery with the new one. First thing is that the replacement battery should be empty for eg. 0%. After you inserted the replacement battery keep the phone for 1/2 hr charging. After 1/2hr press the power button once if its boots fine and then the battery percentage will immediately reset from 50% to 0% and starting showing the charging animation once you boot into the OS. Whereas if it doesn't boot then press and hold the power button for atleast 5 vibrations without the micro usb connected to the power source. Then again keep the phone for charging for 5mins and again press the power button. This time it will definitely boot into the OS and the battery percentage will reset from 50% to 0% and it will start charging. Then keep the phone for charging until it reaches 100%. I hope this would help all the people who are facing this kind of issues.

Just had the same problem after replacing a battery. when looking at the battery connectors, the bottom right of the 6 contacts is bad.
Solution, take your battery back and tell them to give you another one. If it is on the board, clean it or replace the motherboard.
I found the issue! my OP3 has the same problem after i dropped my phone 1 week after i changed my battery. Becoz i did not put double sided tape when i replace the battery, the battery connected ripped off the connector on the mainboard, hence, only half of the connector on the motherboard now. So, technically speaking, the battery only connected to the mainboard with half the connector. Not sure if you understand what im talking about

Sorry for your bereavement, mate.

It had about 70% charge before it died and was using shazam before like 3 minutes
I got it to back to the store and they will replace it tommorow

Stuck at 0% of battery, difficulties to boot

My phone is stuck to 0% of battery, no matter how much i charge it, it still remain at 0%.
It doesn't show up the battery charge icon, even if it's off, but the charging works because i feel the phone and the charger warm, but the led of charging doesn't show up even if the icon of the battery in navbar changes.
I already tried i clean flash, and now i flashed the last factory image, but the problem isn't gone.
There's another problem, when i shut down or i reboot the phone, it seems to die. It doesn't power up, but after some attempts keeping the power button pressed for much seconds, it finally turns on. Same for fastboot mode.
How did i arrive to this situation? I was running los14, i installed substratum, i applied 4 or 5 themes and there was no problem, till when i had a bootloop. So, i went in recovery and flashed the rom to fix the problem, but when i pressed "reboot", the phone shut down and died, and problems are begun.
One years ago i changed the battery, i still have the old one, should i try to change the battery?
Yes, try a different battery to see if that helps.
I changed battery but nothing seems changed.
It's really strange, the phone runs well anyway, i'm writing with it right now..
It's like the phone can't reach battery status. There's no app that is able to get info from battery.
Actually, something changed; when the phone is off and i plug it in charge, it shows a battery with a question mark
Sounds like the battery charging circuit
