As the title states, my phone won't charge or turn on. It was at 2 percent battery when I turned it off a few hours ago and put it on a fast charger when I got back and it was running just fine. It Charged to 99 percent before I took it off the charger and was using it. However, I restarted because Adaway asked and the phone never turned back on. And the Orange LED isn't showing up either. I doubt its the battery because It still had 90 percent when I restarted it. There is no Battery Blinking on the screen wither and holding the power and volume up causes the HTC splash screen to appear for a few seconds before turning off again. Its stuck in that loop if I keep it held.
Anyone have any suggestions with what I could do here?

I read loads of similar issues, but mine is a little different:
I heavily used my stock-rom, unrooted phone today, recorded long videos in Full HD, when I got back home, I had 18% battery, plugged it into my computer's USB to get the videos (unaware of the issue of insufficient current on USB ports) and windows did not recognize it.
I then unplugged it planning to plug it into the wall socket, and when I woke the phone, it died on my arms
A little annoyed, I plugged it into the wall socket, and got the slow, orange blinking LED, and was not able to turn the phone on. After 30 minutes, the LED stabilized and it seemed to be charging (while off), so I left it there for another 20 minutes.
When I tried to turn the phone on, it worked, normally, but showed 2% battery life remaining. I had Wi-Fi on, but normally it wouldn't be an issue, so I left it charging for another 20 minutes.
I then woke the device and it showed 1% battery left! While plugged in! I tried to wake it and it died again.
I left it there for an hour or so, turned it back on, 6% battery left, I then turned Airplane Mode on so it would charge faster. After 10 minutes in Airplane Mode, it still shows 6%. It is not charging, I'm using the original HTC charger and cable.
It seems like it is not charging at all when on, and charging VERY slowly when off.
Tried a few tricks I read online, such as holding the volume up + volume down + power button for 2 minutes, but all I got was a steady flashing recovery screen, which says my battery is too low for flashing.
So the difference between mine and other posts is that my stock phone is turning on, but not charging anymore. If I turn Airplane Mode off, it drains itself even while plugged into the charger.
I'm really looking for a solution for this, instead of simply returning it (it's more than one year old, and I bought it overseas) or buying a new phone.
EDIT: Batter Widget app showed Charging Speed: n/a. Testing says battery health: good, 3666 mv, "charging" status

Does anyone know why when I charge my nexus 5 and the battery charges to 100% it turns off? When I say it turns off, it switches to the screen where is just displays the battery icon and I have to push the power button to start the boot up sequence.
The odd thing is if I leave it over night with the screen on the phone will not turn off and go to the battery icon screen.
I just did a factory reset and running 6.0.1 non-rooted. I also have tired other charges and chords.
Any ideas? It won't turn off any other time it seems. Only once the battery reaches a full charge.
Hi there,
so apparently my phone battery died today when my phone fell under my car seats.
tried to charge it at work but only had a charger <1A, thought that was too less because it wouldn't move from the 1% screen.
at some point i noticed it wasn't really charging no matter the charger.. tried some tricks from this and other forums. right now it will display the 1% screen when plugged in but the LED is not lit. i can power it up but ofc with a low batt like that it will vibrate briefly and shut off after like 10-15 secs.
pressing vol+ and power button leads to vibrating 3 times and seemingly soft reset, i can plug it in after that and the LED is lit red for charging, but will stop after like 15-30 minutes (1.5A charger) and display 1% screen again.
yellow switch, do i hold that one down 5-10sec with or without any charger plugged in?
as said, without pressing anything after soft reset now i can briefly press power and the screen shows it's "stuck" at the 1% screen, after being plugged in for like half an hour, after the first 15 mins the red LED went out. i'll leave it like this over night but don't have much hope, think it aint charging without the red LED lit?
any input on how i can reboot this thing properly without loosing any data on my phone is greatly appreciated!
oh and i also read the battery cable/contacts inside can be disconnected.. as said the phone fell down in the car, could that be a problem with the symptoms i'm seeing as well?
quick update, let it plugged over night and in the morning it was still showing 1% and no LED.
unplugged it and pushed yellow button for 15 secs, with no reaction. let it sit some minutes and plugged it again, red LED for some secs, then 1% screen and no LED again.
came back after an hour and it shows 30% charge and boots up!
however, no charging LED whatsoever and once booted, it doesn't charge any more (no charging icon anyways).
turned the phone off again and will try to charge it that way..
still seems strange whatever is going on here.
any input?
I hope someone who knows more about this issue comes by to help you! All I think of to ask is if your phone is maybe only charging when the display is on? I have a GPD XD that won't charge if the display is off, it can be plugged in for hours and the battery won't increase. Found that out with a charger that lights up... so I have set it to daydream when charging and it charges that way. I don't know if this will help you at all, if maybe your device is sleeping a little TOO deep :laugh:
The original issue i had was my phone black screened and became unresponsive. power+down did nothing, neither did charging it(wouldnt get charging led or the animation. ) now after plugging it in for a while i could do volume home and power and it restarts but then it powers down partway through it. The current issue is that +_the fact that my battery is draining. im leaving it charging overnight, hopefully itll fully drain and recharge but im not betting on it. any ideas or tips to get this taken care of?
Greetings,
I had one plus 6 for a bit over 6 months, bought from them directly, use on TMO USA.
About a month ago, started having charging issues. I use old HTC wall charger. Never had any issues before.
Now, when plugged in, the phone charging starts to cycle every 2sec or so. The charging icon goes on/off. If I have less than 15% battery left, the "low battery" warning flashes on the screen on/off every 2 sec. If over 15% battery, phone just vibrates as charging turns on and off.
Sometimes, turning battery saver on or off, or changing default USB configuration, or even rebooting, solves the issue right away. Sometimes it does not
Is this software issue? Started after most recent software upgrade.
I run everything stock. No unlocking, no custom ROMs.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Mike
Why do you not charge with OnePlus charger & cable?
