I have another problem with battery. I charge TP for 6 hours. after that time it still showing CHARGING, round light bimkning and when I enter battery, it shows 50-70% and charging! when I make soft reset it show full and stop charging, anyone knows how to fix this?, I'm worring about my battery I have oryginal rom. Thanks for reply.
I know that it is in other tread but I try to find solution
Are you using the supplied charger?
This happened to me when I tried to charge it with a Motorola V3 charger.
yes, the original charger is one amper powered which is very strong, all other chargers I have in my car or whereever output much smaller amount in milliampers (starting from 200 mA even). BUT never forget that slower charging is always better to preserve battery durability

oryginal delivered with TP
How long did you charge it the very first time?
dificult to say, i thing over 8 hours, but battery is really ok, it keeps 2-4 days.
i think i got close to an hour wait for 3/4ths charge
so prob about an hour and a half for max???
I had this same problem yesterday. It was at 30% after 4 or 5 hours of charging, then after I reset it, it was at 100%...
had same prob. Fixed after hard reset

You sure you don't mean soft reset? some people make this mistake all the time and it makes for horrible advice to n00bs.

HARD reset help
I had this problem and was hesitant to do a hard resent and have to reload and re-enter all my settings.
Turns out I was charging through USB that was connected to a cheap hub that didn't supply enough power to charge the phone. Connecting my sync-USB cable straight to the computer fixed it all.
Silly oversight but it might help somebody with the same issue.
hmm, mine started doing this a few days ago...i do remember I used to have the usb charge hooked up directly to the computer but i noticed it was now connected to the usb hub. Let's hope hooking it directly to the computer fixes it...i can't rmember when i switched it to the hub ;p
EDIT:
yep, connecting it directly to the computer fixed it
Thanks!
even charging throught eh computer is slower than plugging it into teh wall. the usb charging only sends SOME of the power to the phone and therefore takes much more time than charging through a wall outlet...
Same thing happened to my wife's TP. Using Stock 1.90. When charging it would reach 85% and stop there irregardless of how many hours I charged it after that but after using the TP car charger it would resume the charge and reach 100%. So the TP would be normal for a few days and then the same problem would occur. Don't know why though but I would use the car charger to normalise it as soft resetting doesn't work.
Where as I'm using the Stock 5.05 euro without any probs....
i to have been having problems with battery life, and ive noticed as previously mentioned a significant differance between usb and mains charging. i charge my tp every night and last month i started to leave it on the usb rather than putting it on the mains in the bedroom. it was then i noticed a drastic drop in batterly life, after a full day at work (12hr approx) and average use ( txts/emails/games/vids) i wa left with only 10-15% battery. but when i returned to mains charging the same usage now leaves me with 45-55% battery. so now i just stick to mains charging through the night. just my 2 cents
This is what solved my problems...
Turn off your phone and plug it in to the wall, wait until it is fully charged. Then you can turn your phone on, and use it like you regularly would, but use it until you run out of battery, I mean 0%, it turns off randomly. Don't charge it again till it's fully drained.
Then fully charge it again, this time don't plug the phone back in until it reaches 1 or 2%.
Hope that helps!

yep, that's because the USB does not deliver the full power to teh device. that's why charging it via the supplied charger is much more efficient and powerful and lasts longer. USB should not be used to charge unless necessary for this reason
I had the same problem with I first got my Fuze. I even tried the ritual draining and recharging but nothing worked.
So I called AT&T and they swapped my battery for a new one. Problem solved.

swapped or sent you a new one? i want a free battery!
This is a strange one. When I connect USB to my computer the device shows up, I also get the option for USB tethering on the phone... however it does not indicate that it is charging. The charger works in other phones and I've even tried using a proper charger (i.e. not a usb cable).
Now the thing is, I'm not sure if it's not charging. When I turn the phone on I have 11% battery and get a notification about it and told to plug in a charger, and when I plug it in the message does not come back - although the battery % stays on 11.
Are the Motorola USB drivers installed?

They are installed on my PC yes, although I don't see what that has to do with it?
I'm asking the stupid questions first, lol...
Which USB ports are you using, try connecting to a port on the motherboard (proper +5V) if not?
I have the same problem with a nokia lumia 920 charger, the charger works in others phones and some time before works in my phone too

Like I said, I've tried using a direct mains charger too. The USB connection from phone to computer is fine as I can transfer files etc. It just won't charge regardless of what cable I use.
That said though, the battery has been on 11% for a long time. Makes me think that it has actually been charging (or else it would have decreased/died) and it's just the reading that is stuck? I've tried switching to icon mode then % but it's still on 11. Is there a way to recalibrate it? The phone is barely a month old so it's surely not a hardware issue.

When I got mine the battery hung on 31% for ages then dropped to 0% and rebooted. Since then I cycled it through a few times without connecting the charger until it was flat and then charged it to max and left it for a few hours at least. It came good after that and I've had no problems. According to Motorola to recalibrate the battery state it should be left for charge once fully charged for a few hours extra.
I've had mine for a few weeks.
It doesn't seem to change either side of 11% whether I charge it or not. I guess I'll just have to plug it in for a few hours and assume it's fully charged?
It took me ~4 and 1/2 hours to charge it fully using the 500mAh Moto charger from 0%, but I did it the other way around--I used it till it was flat first.

It actually says charging now, but it continues to say that even when I remove the charger.
Also my battery has finally dropped from 11% to 10%, that is after around 7 hours use...

That's very peculiar... It might indicate something wrong at the firmware level. You are running the standard ROM, are you?
I'd advise to jump some factory resets / firmware (re)install hoops.
I'm running Beanstalk ROM but the creator is already getting very cranky with me for suggesting it might be a bug in that
Unless you can reproduce the behaviour with the stock firmware, Beanstalk is the prime suspect.
But it could be a file/driver corruption, hence the suggestion to reinstall.
Same problem with XT1033 on Stock 4.4 ROM
on stock 4.4 ROM same problem i am facing, even after 1-2 hours charging its showing same % of battery.
but after a restart its coming to normal condition & shows charging icon.
I charged my phone last night (still on 10%), brought it out with me and during use it cut out and would not turn on. I kept trying to turn on by either pressing power on or pressing power & vol down. A couple of times I got to the bootloader but that was it. When I got home I plugged it into a charger and it came up with a white screen with an empty battery graphic.
Now my phone will not turn on no matter what I do, even when plugged in.
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
Hi all.
I've had my gear for about 2 years now.
One day, about a month ago I forgot to put it in the charger and the battery drained totally. After this small incident I can't get the watch to start anymore.
I'ts completely dead, does not respond when I try pressing/holding buttons, charging it or whatever. The charger starts blinking red after a short while.
I also tried to solder a USB cable to the connections on the motherboard but no reaction with that either..
I've tried to replace the battery the other day and success, it started!! But, only for an hour or so, now it's dead again, exactly like before.
The battery that sits in the watch right now is almost fully charged and measures 3.7 volts directly on the contact surfaces.
Anyone got an idea what to try next?
Note that it's completely dead and does NOT respond to any pressing of the buttons or charging it in any way.
Regards
Emil
If correct soldered wires...
Then charging via USB possible...
Try maybe for 30 minutes to charge via USB...
Check if device will be hot
Maybe Hardware damage...
You could check Service Manuals... Schematics:

Lithium battery fully charged are at "4.20V". "3.7V" is the nominal voltage (mean stay at 3.7V 80% of the time during discharge time).
Samsung Gear S3 Battery Issue Fix
Samsung S3 Frontier Learning Mode found for charging issue SM-R760. The solution (keep in the charger while doing resets) is to reset the watch 8 to 10 times and keep holding the power button and shutting it off about another 10 times. This is unusual however my battery went from 1%, 4%, 16% and the flashing red light stopped and went to 100% charge in 2 1/2 hrs. I will keep the forum informed any changes if this reoccurs. I definitely think the latest update blew-up the cache in watch and somehow takes multiple resets and power button presses to reset the functionality of Samsungs mistakes.

change battery 100% but not working power on/off
I changed the battery because it was no longer charging. Recharged and gave 100% charge but now the power button does not turn on. He charges but does not care. Any suggestion?
Thank you.

Try Another Charger
you have to jump start your battery if you dont even get any feedback from EDL or fastboot. just plug in c type connector, then repeatedly plug in and out your charging adapter. this once brought back my old xperia xa ultra from being completely dead to back to life. also dont drain your battery past %15-20.

I'd like to know your findings from the service center or if you were able to revive your phone. Same thing happened to me. new phone arrived and the battery was drained. LED Lights flicker when plugged in but won't turn on.
the phone is expected to recharge even from a flat 0 battery.

Hi, of course the same thing happened to me. I didn't notice the battery and it ran out to zero. Then I can't charge the phone anymore. I tried different cables, different chargers and nothing. After connecting the charger, only the LED flashes and that's it. I left the phone on the charger for a few hours and something didn't change. Don't have new information on how you ended up in the service? thx
This thing worries me a lot!
Also because I have seen that it is a very common problem among Poco phones.
Even with a lot of attention it can happen, inadvertently ... at that point what do you do?
What if it happens out of warranty?
Is it possible that there is no solution?
Has anybody found a solution to this problem? Which I think is a software/coding problem.
I had the exact same issue in April (phone bought in January) where I didn't notice that the battery had gone flat and plugged the charger in and left it to charge, only it didn't.
Now I was in the position where my son also has the same phone so to diagnose the issue, i took mine apart and removed the charging port and swapped it with his. No change, his phone charged mine didn't.
I then swapped the batteries, his battery would charge in my phone and weirdly my battery would charge from '0' in his phone. So the charging ports and cables were now known to be fine and working, but also the batteries were both able to be charged so it seems it is a software issue.
I now have a new battery on order because he's not got his phone any more
