[Battery - LG NEXUS 5] Always 0%!!! - Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello to all, as in the photo that I enclose, since replaced the display on my nexus 5, the indicator of the battery charge remains always at 0% ... if the detachment from the current, continues to run regularly for a few hours.
I also tried replacing the battery with an original but to no avail. If i turn off the phone there is no way to turn it back on if you disconnect the battery, attacking power, get it going in the bootloader, reattach the battery and then start ... crazy stuff. What do you think?
Sorry my english and thnks for helps!

Hello,
I am having the same problem after having replaced the battery... Did you find any solution? Thank you

Same problem here. I revived the phone after a water drop but now have exactly this problem. All good except for this. I replaced the battery but still the same.
The phone can use normally, just don't know how much battery left because always shows 0%.
And if turn off need to open it, disconect the battery, connect the charge, turn on and when google appear connect the battery back. Kinda weird but is how it works now.
Any way to solve this?

The same problem
It happened to me and I am looking for a new battery in Egypt

I have the same problem.
Even with a new OEM battery this happen.
Any news about a solution?

Exactly the same problem.. any solution?!

vox - turns itself off with no reason ;/

hi,
as you can see, I've got quite unusual problem with my vox.
the phone screen goes black, it blinks once the right green diode for half a second (could this be an error code?) and turns itself off. (not saving any changes made, or sms sent/recieved)
it usually happens when I make a phonecall, or browse the net, but lately it has started to happen randomly, when I browse the menu, or use any other programs.
What's interesting, is that after turning the phone back on form such a malfunction, the battery status shows it's below 20% and turns itself off again almost instantly.
The only solution I've found so far, is to wait some time, switch it on again, and pray that the battery indicator would show the state before malfunctionong. If it does, the phone could work as long as the battery remains charged (or turn itself off again, as it happens more frequently lately)
Does anybody hav some clue what could it be? malfunction of the battery, or phone itself?
I dont think it's a software issue, because just yesterday I replaced WM6.1 (drGonzo) with wm 6.5 ( the 2.1 ver by frauhottelmann)
and it still occusrs.
Same problem
Yeah i am also facing the same problem with my Vox...it is around 1.5 yrs old...and i know its battery is dying...but it happens even the battery is fully charged...
Is it really because of the battery or some hardware...
Dude its due to battery .May be you are charging your machine through USB. Your battery need replacement..It will show you full battery.Its false showy.
I faced the same.Now I happy after changing my batttery
FIrst of all check the battery mates.
Me and my friend both had the vox that with full battery charged suddenly turned off after a call...and definitely was THE BATTERY.
Now I bought a double capacity for about 10 euros shipped...and my vox stays on without intensive usage (3-4 calls of 4 min each, and about 10-15 sms for about 8 (EIGHT) days)
Try to empty the battery completely and then recharge it completely!
To really empty it, put it in boot loader and unplug the cable. Let it sit until the screen turns off. Then recharge it without turning the device on.
My phone has started doing this recently, it doesnt seem to be as bad if I put it on Aircraft mode, but it always turns off randomly after a while at least, I am going to try frauhottelmann idea now.
Also, if it works I would like to flash it to WM6.5, how can I check to see if I need the USLP? I got the phone second hand so I am not sure what the phone was originally.
Had this problem for a few weeks now. Just put it into boot loader mode to see if it works. Shall let you know later or tomorrow
forgot to update the topic ;D
I've changed the battery for a new one, and now it's running smoothly and lovely

Since i m facing the same problem and that now it is confirmed that it is due to battery, I wished to try FMs idea. but its now more than 2 days in bootloader, my phone is still not discharged completely. is there any other way to completely discharge the battery?
Well, seems your battery has plenty of life! LoL
BTW I suggest you to activate BT and WIFI...then run TCMP into loop and maximum volume...
the phone should run out fast...when the phone suts itself off..you could do the FM's thing just to refine the discharge.

yap, its the battery alright. facing the same issue, but the battery is warn out due to intensive charging from my car...
so, incoming new battery
actually i think i have a different kind of problem... my mobiles do not restarts instantly, the screen first fades to grey (as if the lcd is damaged with only grey and white vertical lines visible), and then to black and then it restarts. has any one faced similar problems? Can this be solved by changing the battery?
and i dont know but somehow each time i set the correct TIME in the clock, after sometime my clock slows and shows the wrong time(as in case of a wall clock with weak batteries).
any suggestions?
This method worked for me....
Switch off the phone, take out SIM..clean the sim enclosure area and insert SIM..RESTART

An easier way to turn the phone off other than having to remove and rinsert the battery if the power button does not work, is to open the Sim card door.

Samsung i780 Dead... Power cannot start...

Hi anyone...
Need help to see if there is solution to my dead i780. After charging for quite sometime, the led indicator still remain "RED". I suspected something went wrong so I unplug the power and the red indicate still there. I tried switching on or off the phone but was unsuccessful. No choice, I have to take out my battery and place it back. After doing so, the phone cannot be turn on anymore!!!
Having an external battery charger and spare battery, I tested with a different battery but still unsuccessful. Charge the existing battery with the external charger have no issue. So I concluded that the problem now lies with the phone... any solution? or anyone encountered this before.
If I send for repair, is it worth it? $20++ for checking and $XXX.XX for parts.
Thank you.

Have you tired another battery? I had something similar happen to me. I put my phone on charger with about 60%battery left. When I went to check on phone after charging, it was completely dead. No charging lights, nothing! I tired to charge again but still nothing. Strange thing was this battery was fairly new. Well, I happened to have another battery. I put it in the phone and then my phone came back to life! My battery had somehow died during charging. The new battery fixed the phone. Maybe you should try another battery, just in case the same thing happened to you? It sure wouldn't hurt to try. I wish you the best and hope you get your problem solved. Good luck.

New battery, phone doesn't boot

Hi all,
My Nexus 5's battery was draining extremely fast and a factory reset / clean rom flash didn't help. So I decided to get a new battery. After installing the battery I found out the phone didn't boot. I opened up the phone again to double check all connectors I touched were in place and I even reconnected them just to be sure. My phone still didn't turn on so I hooked it up with my *original* charger and USB-cable. All I see is the charging screen (battery with lightning icon) and a few seconds later my phone turns off, only to repeat this cycle. I'm able to boot into the bootloader, the phone stays on but immediately turns off when I pull the charger. When trying a normal boot I see the Google logo and a few seconds later the phone turns off and falls back in its charging-screen-cycle.
I looked up some troubleshooting on the Google site (https://support.google.com/nexus/troubleshooter/3337561?hl=en#ts=3337943) but that didn't fix my problem either. What should I do?
The battery I ordered is an original LG TL-B9 battery.
Thanks in advance!
Are you sure the battery isn't shot or some hardware on your device isn't working
Try re-installing the old battery so that you can identify whether it's a dud new battery or if the phone itself is dead. A real pain, I know, but best to eliminate the one changed component before wasting time looking for possibly non-existent problems in working hardware.
I reinstalled my old battery shortly after I created this thread, and my phone worked again. There was a small tear in the flat cable from the connector, so I got a new battery and that one works.
Excellent!

Nexus 5 won't charge the battery, shows -30degrees and cold temp

Hey All,
i have a nexus 5 running android 5.1.1, which recently i have encountered some battery issues, the battery drained very fast (6-7 hours from 100% to 0%).
but then, it stopped charging the battery, no matter what i changed - nothing worked! (new cables, different chargers and so on).
yesterday i have bought a new battery and replaced the original faulty battery, but nothing is changed, the new battery won't charge.
i tried to charge it when the nexus is on or off, doesn't matter, same result...
i am very frustrated from the situation, and basically can not use the nexus any more..
one more thing, i tried also google suggestion (when the cell is off, to press power+volume buttons, and then scrolling down to shut down and inserting the charger - >didn't work for me).
i tried to upgrade to Marshmallow (6.0.1) but there is not enough battery power to allow it...
when i dial *#*#INFO#*#*, and check the battery properties,
why the temp is always -30 degrees for the two batteries?
Is it a sensor issue?
do you have any suggestion?
Thanks!
anyone?
i will really appreciate your suggestion..
Connect the phone to a Windows machine and look to see if any new devices appear in Device Manager.
Thanks for the reply.
I connected the nexus to my laptop, it was recognized and i could reach the storage, but the battery remained the same, not charging ..
So the nexus 5 appears in Windows explorer? Possible charging port problem?

well, maybe. havn't tried it so far..
have you encountered this issue of wrong temp alert of -30 degrees for other users ?
and replacing the charging port solved it?
I haven't encountered the battery temp issue.
Since the old and new battery behave the same way, there wouldn't be too many culprits which is why I mentioned the USB charging port. Has the ever been dropped? Any way you could test the batteries in another phone?
the problem was resolved!!!
finally, after so many hours trying to make it work, i encountered a thread here in XDA which explains that the sensor is located on the cable connecting the battery to the motherboard.
Apparently it was a bit loose, so i put something above the connection and put the cover tightly.
then, the temp was reasonable again and my nexus was coming back to live!

Hey, I have the same same problem , what did you do to fix it? I've been almost a year without using my nexus because it only works when it's plugged. Can you tell me what thread did you read or the solution? Thank you
See my last post....
Anyway, The problem was at the connection port of the battery - when you remove the nexus cover, you will see that the battery is connected by a connector with 9-10 pins to the board. Apparently those pins weren't connected properly and were loose, so I put something from above to make some pressure on the connector, then screw back everything and close the cover. Since then, my nexus is working great!
I hope it will work the same for you...
