My BA runs out of power although the battery is full!SOS!!!! - MDA III, XDA III, PDA2k, 9090 General

Hi my friends!
I had some problems with my xdaiis!
It is about the power!
In spite of the fact that I use a full batery, my PDA also cannot recognize the level of the battery power and it's always 0%.Oh my God! What should I do?When I recharge, the led for recharging doesnt work and instead of "recharging" symbol it's AC only.
So the main problem is that: My BA runs out of power although the battery is full.And I cannot recharge the battery. The battery power level is always 0%.I cannot do nothing coz it repeatedly turn off.So if I want to work with the BA more than 3m, I have to press the power buton once!
Everybody please !Help me!

it seems that your battery is damaged... how long did you use it?

battery reverse charging

Hello,
I have a HTC Blueangel with a somewhat novel approach to charging its battery.
When connected to the USB, the charge meter continuously _decreases_, something close to 1% in 5-6 seconds. When the meter reaches 0%, it stays there for a short while (20-30 seconds), then jumps back to whatever the real charge is. And start decreasing again. After the regular several hours, the battery gets fully charged as normally should.
The charging used to work normally a while ago, and I cannot figure out what (or when) did I do to make it act this way. Initially I thought it might be a software problem, tried a hard reset, but it's still happening.
It's running WM2003 (1.42), with radio 1.15. BlueTooth, IR and wifi are disabled, screen brightness is set to min, etc. so I cannot understand what is going on.
Normally it should not be much of a deal, because the battery really has charge in it. But the system believes the indicated meter, so when going really low on the battery meter, it decides to disable stuff like phone, SD slot, etc. trying to conserve an apparent lack of charge.
If I disconnect the USB cable, the charge meter appears to drain at the normal rate (regardless of what the _real_ charge is). All other battery-conserving features appear to function normally -- notifications at 20 and 10%, shutting down when empty, etc.
I do not have a wall charger, so I could only test USB charging. I do not have another BA available to test just the battery.
Any ideas as to what might be going on? Is it possible to fix it?
Thanks,
-Daniel
lol sounds annoying........what about reinstalling wm2003???
i am having a similar problem - using the usb charger while in the car seems to discharge the battery. nothing seems to fix battery drain problem - but on the cradle it is fine. let me know if you find anything on this one

Full charged Battery drain out within 2hrs

Here is the problem :-
1. Full charged batttery (NEW) drain out within 2 hrs
2. Exec in standby mode, got heat (warm)
3. While charging, i put it on standby mode, few second later it wake up it self.
4. while open the cover, usually have to press the power button it's only wakeup, but this time its on every moment..
Tried solution :-
Problems occured while using gprs for internet, it hang so soft reset it... after soft reset everything is fine, but the battery drain out so fast... and the device is WARM...
Flashed back to original rom (o2) - still the same
Tried flashed to WM6 - still the same problem
i got 2 x batteries... the problem still the same (not the battery problem)
anyone can help out with this?
thank you so much
try using 2А battery charger .. I have had similar problems that I decided to convert the old computer power supply for charging purposes
I was going to say your battert's old and dead, but since you said it was independent from the battery, now I think the drain and the heating might be explained by a short circuit somewhere in the non-vital parts of the device, or a malfunction of the power control circuit, causing constant drain and heating up the battery.
As for the device beng constantly on, have you checked the power settings? If those are all right, they can stil be attributed to the faulty power controller...
I suggest you take it to a repair shop(since your ROM-flashing probably voided the warranty, so the provider will just turn you away...), they might be able to do something with it.
I suggest you check back later to see if someone more knowledgeable than me offered confirmation or another opinion...
Good Luck!
theres only one thing i can think of: Turn off your wifi when you dont use it Xp Thats the only reason i can think of when your device gets warm and the battery quickly drained ; D

I don't think so...the wifi doesn't use nearly enough power to heat up the device or drain the battery that quickly. Even with all wireless options enabled, but screen brightness set to minimum, the battery lasts approximately one and a half hours for me.
I think the quick drain and heating is caused by either a non-critical short-circuit or a faulty power controller circuit...
maybe you gor ripped off. what kind of battery did you buy?
The battery that im bought recently
same as the old one.
PU16A Li-ion Polymer Battery 1620mAh
everything i tried to save the power
everything off except the phone, the backlight set to the lowest.
im charge it with my charger instead of USB port from computer

[Q] about my battery

ok so i got a problem with my battery
my battery on my phone just going out to fast
for example today
i connected it so it could reload and then
when i disconnected it was 100%
then after 2 hours only that i havnt use the phone i mean havnt touched it even once
i look again on battery life and here it says 36%
and it keep going every day
can some1 tell me why it keep happening???
WOW! That's a major drain in 2hours.
My 2 cents are on a defective battery - since the phone was on standby.
You can try some tutorials on adjusting the power saving settings (like screen brithgness what to turn off and not etc.)
Also you might try caibrate the battery.
there is a thing like u charge it to 100% ,unplug from the charger and turn the phone off ,then plug in again and charge to 100% again... there is a thread about it on this forum, do a lil search it might help u
Dial *#*#4636#*#* and go to battery and find partial wake usage, here the apps are listed that prevent the phone form sleeping and thus causing battery drain. Also check the % under Settings-about phone- battery usage to see what app or process consumed the most battery.
Does it get very hot? I mean - if the battery really contains 1500mAh (which I doubt in this case) and drains completely in 3 hours, that's 500mAh, so 3.5V*0,5A=1,75W continuesly.
You really should notice that while it's in your pocket...
no the phone isnt getting hot
i mean it can sit on my pocket for like 2-3 hours and then it suddenly 3x %
without even touching it
Try these steps:
1. Please connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until the notification LED is green, indicating the device is fully charged.
2. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off.
3. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the notification LED is green.
4. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the notification LED is green.
5. Disconnect the phone, power it on (OPTIONAL: Enter Recovery at this point and Wipe Battery Stats (from Advanced menu), and use it. You need to use this sequence only once.
If that does not solve it you have a defective batterie.
ok i will try it
but can u tell me what the point???
i mean what does it do??

The point of that, is to make the battery life longer. And actually it works. I tried when i bought my phone an the increase was significant!
Edit: Just saw in another thread that some newer custom ROMs has some things messed up, and they eat the battery more than normal when the screen is off. You might take a look at it.
yea i did all the steps and its not working
the battery still going down rapidly
so i should buy new one??
Yeah.
BTW, are you on a stock rom?
srry
no idea what stock rom means
but im on miui rom

Official fix for battery problems

This is directly from HTC tech support. To recalibrate battery and HTC charger when battery rapidly or erratically discharges, this procedure clears all battery stats, coordinates and normalizes charging.
Turn off Fast Boot in settings. Power off phone.
Plug phone into HTC charger and charge for two minutes or more
While charging, hold down volume up+volume down+power button and continue holding
Phone will turn on and off repeatedly every 15 seconds or so while continuing to hold all three buttons
Keep this going for 2 minutes, then release buttons when phone is ON
Now, let phone charge fully normally (with phone either on or off--doesn't matter) and battery level reporting, charging and battery life should be normalized.
Do this every month or so to keep power system healthy--even if everything seems fine. Also, don't leave phone on charger overnight for best long term battery life (according to HTC tech support: "The first thing they tell us." This is true even though charging is supposed to turn off when battery is at 100%)
NOTE: Another potential fix for battery/charging abnormalities if this procedure fails (esp. after an OTA update when corrupted files can remain stuck in device cache partition)--clear cache partition using this method: http://forums.androidcentral.com/verizon-htc-one/315416-how-clear-cache-partition-stock-recovery-un-rooted-phone.html

So I received different instructions from HTC...they said 30 minutes after power off on charger, and to hold only the power button (not volume buttons - I don't know that you can hold both the volume up and down at the same time anyways) for two minutes

[GUIDE] Recover 2012 and newer XPERIAs from SOFT-brick
under Battery Charging Cycles is following information:
On a working phone there are different stages of a battery's charging cycle. The stages are listed in order they happen. The cycle goes from a completely dead battery through a phone running on battery and back to a completely dead battery.
Dead battery. No response from the power button, no screen and no led.
Connect to charger
low battery level charging mode. This is when just the RED led is on and no screen. At this stage the battery's charge is to low to turn the phone on, but it is charging.
Kernel controlled off-line charging mode. This is when the battery has charged enough from step (3) and boots the kernel to charge the battery. The phone is off, but could be turned on using the power button. A quick press of the power button will show this battery icon. Icon will fill with charge.
The kernel also controls charging when the phone is on.
Battery is fully charged.
Unplug the phone and turn on.
Battery is dead from normal use.
Repeat stages starting at (1)
