Battery dying !!!

I have a lot of battery issues lately... For info I have my xt720 for 1year and 3mouth i buy right after motorola release it
So if that can help someone...:
This is my first post with my first battery "blackout"...
My phone is dead !!!!
i don t know what to do!
It don t want to charge anymore
This morning i notice it wasn t fully charge after going out but i came back before it die so I plug it i had about 10% left
5min after it make me some no battery alarm ( 3 or 4) like if the phone was not plug anymore i replug it. it works but without moving it it stop charging
It reboot but with 5% battery and die
Now i can t boot anymore
Sometimes my led light but it never boot...
I hope it s only my usb cable or my electric plug that is causing it but i don t think so since i don t touch it when it stop charging...
I don t know what to do!!
It was my only phone...
The next day:
My phone come back to life after one night without battery...
Don t ask me why but this morning it charges like always....
I think its a motorola ota update... loool it s time to change !!!
The evening of the same day i plug it as always (it works well all the day) and not any problem
but this morning (the next day morning) my phone was out (black screen and not any reaction when power on or when pluging it...)
I remove the battery about 10minutes then i plug it and it works (it take about 1hour to start but the battery was totally empty so this is normal)
I m not sure what i m going to do right now...
I think the battery is the problem but i can t be totally sure.....
I hope the nexus prime will be release soon and worldwide...
I m going to try the new Mz CM7 and a battery calibration but i don t believe......

You re kidding!
I will search for this tomorrow thanks!
(If you remember the sellor......)

So I remember this from another thread yesterday and I had a similar problem. However my wifes is a bit different. Riddle me this. Her USB port is either not reading or not connecting. I checked her pins and plugged in my phone (works fines). I even went to /system/app/usb.apk and reinstalled. I even jiggled it softly, then wildly and then softly again to no avail.
Any ideas? We can take it in to CBW but man I hate that place with a passion. Would love for it to be something I can fix myself. At this point, i have to charge her battery in my phone and then swap them out until she either gets it fixed or replace the whole damn phone. I spent most of the night backing up her stuff last night (for some reason cannot do a nandroid of /system, data, cdrom, cache, cust or ext. Not sure what is the problem with that. She has 2.1 with app2sd script (much like ESB only not app2ext but rather app2sd)

This has happened to me a few times and freaked me out a little. Rebooting the computer (not the phone) worked, though. I think the USB stack on the desktops/laptops must get confused sometimes. It was even phone specific. One phone would work and the other wouldn't. After reboot both worked again. I feel myself becoming more and more superstitious.

Thanks MZ but it was never plugged into the computer. The charger wouldn't even register plugged in.

Only other idea I have is swapping batteries to see if there's a chance the problem is there... that sucks. Sounds like what happenesld to HM.

Did that. Actually swap hers into my phone to charge it up and then put mine back. Sucks b/c she is a stay at home mom, so she needs her phone. Seems to me to be a hardware issue. Maybe something connecting the usb port to the phone. Short or bad wire or something like that. She's going to CBW to day to do battle.

if it's really a USB port problem, or lose contacts in the USB of the phone
you can always charge it with an external charger

Our carrier replaced it with a Nexus S, so I might be hitting you up for some suggestions. Easye420 mentioned that you turned him on to some things over there. I'll root it and unlock the bootloader tonight and check it out, then probably PM you.

The problem with ebay and all the internet sellors is that i will have to wait for 2 or 3 weeks to get it....
I will have to quickly go to Paris during the lunchtime (i hope i will find one)
For the info last news of my dying battery...
Now it can t boot with out being plug....
But when it s on then the battery always stay at 0%(I never see the 0 before my battery issue) even after 3 or 4 hours of charge
but a little bit fun when i plug it i have the battery charging animation and it show me that my battery is fully charged...

The end of the story...
I just get my new battery (a standard motorola the same as the stock) (cheap and very fast to get if there is someone having battery problem on Paris... let me know by pm)
and I think everything is coming back to normal...
I m not sure yet cause the battery% is acting weird but i think it s the calibration
When i first plug it it show me 50% after a boot it shows 0% but it was charging...
After another reboot it was at 90%....
My moto is making fun of me!!!
But i think everything will come back to normal after a full charge and discharge...
I will let you know

So you change it???
Did you make it work with charged battery???
I changed my battery and my phone don t boot anymore again
The first day i changed the battery it worked well i fully charge it and to calibrate it well i fully discharged it (until the phone shut down)
But now it don t want to charge again!!
When i plug it was booting at the beginning but after the boot it show 0% of battery and shut down after 10seconds
I test it 4 or 5 times and now it don t boot anymore
When i plug it sometimes it show me the animation with 50% of battery but it never move and shut down after max 5minutes (and now even this never happened)
I was asking myself about buying a battery charger like you say allgamer but i m not sure if that will work or if it s really broken
Now it don t have any reaction no matter what i try........
I don t know what to do i was waiting for the nexus prime but it will not shown up until at least 2 mouth (maybe more in France)

I think i read one time a guy who connect the power wire of an usb cable directly on the battery to charge it... It was a milestone battery i think (but its the same for the xt720)
Someone know something about that???
I m trying to recharg it only by connecting the wire to the battery...
We ll see... I don t have other solution for the moment (I try it before buying a battery charger)
I did this (bottom left)

After 1hour of "this way" charging
It seems to have charge but just a little (even if i plug it to the charger and not to usb. It is a lot faster when charging the phone)
I can boot it but it still don t charge (i was hoping it will charge again after the battery get a little more juice)
I have plug it another time i will let it charge for 3 or 4 hour it should let me boot and use it a little more i hope....

I had the same battery problem.
I did the same trick to boot up to flashing mode, and flash back to stock sbf.
After that, battery manage to recharge.

Mine don t want to....
I charge it for 3 or 4 hours and it boot without a problem (even if it show 0% battery again) I was able to go to bootloader or recovery but that s not my problem i just need to charge it and it don t want....
I think i m gonna buy a external battery charger. But that sucks it s about 50€ (i already spent 20€ for a battery...) and i m not sure that it will work...

What ROM do you have installed? I think some on the recent CM7's replace the charge_only_mode with a reverse-engineered non-motorola one.

I don t even try this.... It really seems to be a hardware problem
I m backing up my old 6.3 right now...
edit i hope you re right but it don t want to charge even when in the system... I mean after the boot i can play a little bit before the system shutdown and it don t charge even when it s power on...
It s still booting (i hope i m not in a bootloop i don t have the battery for...)
edit 2: the battery last enough to boot but it s the same...
Im gonna buy an external battery charger tomorrow.... I don t have any other choice...

[Q] [E] Battery down to 0%, phone doesn't charge

Hey.
I got the dreaded GSM bug on my E (running CM10). The battery was down to 7%, and I was being told to sleep. I did the foolish thing and turned it off, hoping I'd turn it on tomorrow and flash stock. Next morning, the phone didn't turn on; the red light issue. I managed to turn it on, but soon as it turned on, it complained about lack of battery and turned off - the battery symbol didn't say that it was charging, it just showed an exclamation mark. When the phone turned off, it didn't turn on; I never even got the red light back.
It's charging right now (or so I hope) with a 2A Nexus 7 charger and Sony's stock USB cable. Even after charging for about two hours, it still doesn't get a red light. I can't take it to Sony cause it has CM10 and I can't flash stock as I can't get it into Flashmode.
Help me? Please?

Do you have an external charger? Probably not but it is your only shot! Or you need to find another Xperia E and charge your battery in that E. There is not much left you can try. Sorry.
Have you tried to plug it in your your PC? You never know...
This just pops up in my head: if you have enough micro USB cables, try to cut one open very delicate with a sharp knife.
Then try to insert them in your USB port to create voltage. This can't be stopped by the phone, it's a fully automatic process. Perhaps you can find a tutorial or so on the world wide web? Or do you have a very technical friend?
These are my suggestions. Can't think of anything else . Sorry.
Have a nice day and good luck!

Thanks. No external charger, plugging it into the laptop didn't do anything last night, my mother would kill me if I put a cut-open cable in my phone, can't find anything on the WWW, and I am the techinal one in my group of friends.
I left the phone to charge overnight and then tried to power it on. A red light occasionally blinks, but I can't turn the phone on. It's still connected to the charger, with me hoping for a miracle.

Try using one of those 'universal chargers'. They're really cheap, and availability shouldn't be a problem when you're in Delhi. But those are supposed to be kind of dangerous-might fry your battery. But then , it could give your battery just enough juice it needs to enter flashmode!
Best of luck! May God be with your E!

Like I said in PM,universal charger should do it.
Actually one of my friend using miro had this issue,what he did was charged it by universal charger for a considerable time[like 20 minutes]
and then put in the battery in his phone and connected it,the battery was around 17 percent and then he continued charging the phone by sony cable.

@KDB223 @NeoTrix
What, exactly, do you mean by a "universal charger"? I thought all microUSB chargers were compatible with all microUSB phones. Or do you mean a charger that charges any phone, by using separate ports?

They mean an universal AC/DC battery charger. You can get those for 10 euros/15 dollars(don't know in rupees). They can be found in any tech store.
Have a nice day!

Next time you may experience this, try putting out the battery for 10 seconds, then put it back in and turn the phone on. Make sure it's charged enough to make the test. Had the same battery problem with you, did this and it worked.

I also had the same problem, but worser because I cannot charge my Xperia J either via PC USB or the main power. Is the universal charger is the only solution?

You can find somebody with the same model phone like you and ask them to charge the battery for you.

Cannot boot into any Rom. Phone is restarting.

This issue started yesterday. My setup at that moment was as following:
Multirom : Installed
Primary Rom: Lineage OS 14.1
Secondary Rom: TugaPower 48.0
I was using TugaPower rom. I opened music player and the phone got switched off. I tried restarting but into the middle of the booting process, again it shut down. I tried booting into primary rom but the same issue happened. Then I connected it into a charger and it booted normally. Phone's battery level was >80% at that moment. I unplugged the charger and kept it idle, it stayed on. However, if I try to perform any action like opening an app, it switches off if not connected to a charger. So, I kept the phone on charge entire day to use it.
Today I thought of fixing the problem by wiping it clean. So I wiped everything in the phone including Internal Storage. Then I flashed Lineage OS again but the same issue is there. It won't work without a charger despite the battery being full. Please note that TWRP was working fine without a charger so I don't think the battery is faulty. Anyway, I decided to flash COS 13 using fastboot. The issue was still there. then I flashed TWRP again but this time it is also getting shut down in the middle of installing Lineage OS. I plugged it, but still Rom is flashing fine but in the middle of Open Gapps flashing process, it shuts down despite being connected to charger. Now it won't boot to any rom. Just shuts down when it starts to boot.
So now I have a dead OPO with working TWRP(?) and fastboot. Another thing I noticed is that when it is connected to PC via MTP it does not show the available space it used to. Just Internal storage

I am not able to identify the actual issue. Is it a hardware problem? or any partition is corrupted?
Are the days of OPO are finally over?
EDIT: It was the battery all along! Thank you everyone for your feedback and helping me sort out the issue. OPO is still running fine.

Yes...i know this problem first hand cause i'm one of the first that have this problem 1 years ago...when a phone required a constant power from charger to boot normally then it is a clear sign of a dying batteries...don't be fool the with batteries percentage while you connect the phone cause it is not accurate anymore...
if you have OP service center nearby then i suggest you buy new batteries from them but if there no service center then buy new batteries in ebay, amazon or etc but you might get OEM's batteries instead of original batteries if you bought it online....still using OEM's batteries can give you around 3-4 hours of SOT depend on how you use it....

I was getting around 1.5 - 2 hr SOT so I think OEM batteries will be fine too. I will still contact oneplus service center to inquire about battery replacement cost. I have seen some videos on youtube. Do you think changing battery by myself will be fairly easy?

I can confirm it is a problem with the batteries because I had almost the same issue on my one running RR.
Just got mine replaced 30 minutes ago and its running smooth. Just need to do few power cycles for calibration.
Good Luck!

It won't work without a charger despite the battery being full. Please note that TWRP was working fine without a charger so I don't think the battery is faulty. Anyway, I decided to flash COS 13 using fastboot. The issue was still there. then I flashed TWRP again but this time it is also getting shut down in the middle of installing Lineage OS. I plugged it, but still Rom is flashing fine but in the middle of Open Gapps flashing process, it shuts down despite being connected to charger. Now it won't boot to any rom. Just shuts down when it starts to boot.
So now I have a dead OPO with working TWRP(?) and fastboot. Another thing I noticed is that when it is connected to PC via MTP it does not show the available space it used to. Just Internal storage
I am not able to identify the actual issue. Is it a hardware problem? or any partition is corrupted?
Are the days of OPO are finally over?

Try reflashing an older version of TWRP/ modded version and if that doesn't work, try an AOSP ROM. I had the same problem and got OMNI and AOSP 8.xx to boot.

Now TWRP shuts down in the middle of flashing rom so no other ways. Sorry I was busy these days and OPO was lying dead. I just ordered one battery from eBay and will update once I replace the battery.

Well, I have the exact same issue & coincidentally or not, I was also running Tugapower 49. Phone will boot only with the charger connected. So, battery issue is confirmed.

I'll join your club. About 3 weeks ago had a similar problem but managed to get the phone to boot after an over night charge. The battery was around 13 months old. Ordered a new battery from ebay. Fitted it two days ago and flashed an updated lineage rom last night. My oneplus 1 is now stuck in a boot loop. After flashing and leaving it over night to update, it was still in the boot up logo this morning. Held in power button to kill power. Numerous attempts to boot up the phone failed. Only twice have I managed to get it to boot to TWRP recovery. Both times I have tried to resort to flashing the previous ROM, but still get stuck in the loop. I'm waiting to let it get to a full charge, then I'll try a fastboot method and pray that that works. I'll update if/when I get sorted

Well.... had phone plugged into laptop charging. Wrote the above post. not 10 mins after, booted into Recovery first time, reflashed and got it working again........ wish I knew what was going off here but, its working now.

Had the same issue 4 months ago and I'm 99% sure it's the battery. Change it.

Replaced th battery.But in the process something messed up. First, touch would not recognize. Upper connector was loose. Now reconnected that and flashed lineage os. Having ghost touch constantly on "wipe" button position of twrp. This just started after setting up lineage. But the main issue was battery!

Quoting you if you have any idea about the ghost touches I am having after replacing the battery. The main issue is gone.

There shouldn't be ghost touch problem after you changes the batteries unless you disconnect other ribbons and didn't reconnect it properly...dissemble the phone and disconnect all ribbon and reconnect it again for further test....

Oneplus 6 | stuck in battery too low | soft brick | recovery help needed

Background information:
Oneplus 6 is rooted with magisk (but magisk hasn't been updated)
Able to charge and connect to pc as a Qualcomm modem

My Oneplus 6 phone randomly after charging went black and was stuck in a bootloop, after a while I was able to escape the bootloop. Shortly after the screen goes black and now I am prompted with "Battery is too low" screen. After trying many other things of trying to recover the phone, such as: Fully draining the battery then charging it again, charging it for over 24 hours, to "trickle" charging the phone. I wasn't able to bring the phone back.
I don't really know if it this is a battery coordination error or an actual battery error. My goal is to try to recover the phone with no data loss, I've been looking around other forms trying to see how to recover data using QFIL of writing the storage then writing it back to the phone. I have also purchased a 64gb Micro SD card in hope of being able to recover the data using TWRP which I do have on my phone, but I am not able to acess recovery mode, because I am stuck in the "battery too low" screen.
Any help is appreciated. My current last resort option would probably be trying to "unbrick" the phone using MSM downloader tool. My goal here is to try to reserve the data on my phone and be able to hopefully revive my phone, because I don't believe I am in a hard brick.

I had a sucessful operation using MSM tool upgrading the os with "enchilada_22_J.50_210121.ops" but is still stuck in battery is too low.

it may be a stupid solution but have you tried pressing the power button for a while?
another solution can be addressed in physically removing the battery for a while. You'll need the glue or the new adhesive tape at least

yes I have tried the first solution but I will try removing the battery, cause I was able to open my phone up
also do you mind linking me the page / link to where the person fixed it by removing the battery. I would like to try to follow his/her solution

From the photo you provided, your phone enters Emergency Download Mode (EDL mode)when connected to the computer so you may search for related data about EDL mode.

Then I cannot help you much but to make sure the battery is not the problem, you may have to replace the battery.

Sorry i was busy with an exam.
I've had a similar issue on a Sony Xperia Z2 and a Sony Xperia Z3 and after disconnecting the battery I've managed to solve the problem.
the oneplus 6 it's simplier to disassemble but i would suggest you to change the battery as said by @LR7875, just in case.

Replaced the battery but the same problem still persists. I was searching online and appearently oneplus phones have a chip to lock the phone from charging. Is there any way to bypass this?

Also able to do full process of MSMdownloadtool, is there anyway I can force charge from pc through the program. (seems pretty far-fetched)

Usually using a low Ampere (<1A) charger would solve the issue. Leave the phone connected in charge for 1h and let us know.

Is there anything to do after charging on a low Ampere charger? the faint red led is still showing on the phone.

I don't know what to say...
You can try this last thing...
1.Remove the battery.
2. Unplug anything from the phone.
3.Using a paperclip or something made out of metal connect the positive and the negative battery connectors ON THE PHONE for a few seconds.
4. Reconnect battery.
5. Reconnect 1A 5V adapter.
DO NOT SHORT-CIRCUIT THE BATTERY! IT CATCHES FIRE AND EXPLODES!

My Phone was charging for a second when connected to my pc, but this was during my time off of the PC. If I were to recall the events to the best of my knowledge. I believe my phone was just plugged in (old battery), for a long period of time (1-5 hours) then after I turned off my pc for about (2-4 hours) and when I turned it back on it was charging but stayed at only 1% and unable to restart or anything. I wanted to try to recreate this with the new bought battery installed but I was unable to recreate this. I believe this confirms your theory before of charging it with a low ampere for an extended amount of time.

Alright, so please do the following:
-Unplug the battery for 1h (it will allow condenser to discharge).
-Plug-in the battery (the new one)
-Plug in the low-amp charger for one night (8h or so)
You'll have to try many times: even changing the order of the last 2 passages however it's not recommended to plug the charger first but in my case it worked.
NB. If it starts charging let it plugged until reaches at least 20%, boot the phone and switch with a 1A charger then power it off with the 1A charger.
