normally it means it's charging...
ORANGE light means charging.
RED light normally means battery is almost dead.
Try removing the battery overnight, then replace and charge. If this doesnt work maybe you could try it in another phone just to see if it is dead.
It happened to me too the first time I got it. Actually the red light means either the battery is completely dead, or you haven't put it all the way in correctly. In my case, after putting in the battery, I had to press it at the bottom, and then push the latch all the way up, otherwise i would keep getting the red light.
There is another reason, AFAIK: it's when you have a missed-call or unread message.
Red light
Hi all,
i've got the same problem .. got a red light but the battery is fully charged..
h4x0r: your solution did not work form me ....
does anyone know what could be wrong ????
Ive got the same problem now.
Worked fine all day, than it said that the battery power was low.
So i put it on charge, when i came back, the device was dead and the
red light was on.
Gonna leave the battery out for the night, to see what happens.
Hi, I had the same problem too red light on and it wouldnt respond at all even after putting on charge then about an hour later it came on and hard reset itself!!. Mad! seems ok now though (3 days on)
it has something to do with messages or alarms eventhough no messages are incoming. all you have to do is go to settings, sounds & notifications, select the notifications tab below, and just click ok. that will change the red light immediately to green. there's a bug of some sort here.
hi
i was upgrading my universal, following instructions from http://wiki.xda-developers.com/index.php?pagename=Helmi
after upgrading, on my computer i received an error saying the upgrade was unsuccessful and now my universal is dead
i tried hard resetting, i tried putting it into bootloader mode...
there is nothing on the screen
what should i do?
have you ever entered BL before? most new users would not realise their in BL as it doesn't have any backlight. look closely
yes, i have, it isnt working at all, there is nothing on the screen
when i try to flash the device the pc says error 101 connection error
does your charge light appears when connected to AC power?
nope, no charge light
its sad just about 3 hours ago my device was working perfectly
here's what you do:
start activesync on your computer.
Go to connection settings and deselect allow usb connections.
connect your uni to your computer and push the backlight + on/off button and hold these. Then press the reset with your pen, still holding the backlight and on/off.
The screen should say something about serial or usb.
The backlight will not be lighted so it's hard to read.
If the screen doesn't say anything, unplug and plug in the usb connecter one more time.
Does your red charge led lit when you put it on the wallcharger ?
i tried that, many many times, screen still remains blank
nope, no red light when i plug it into the wall
this is bad, its not responding to anything
When plugged, does it give you a red blink (Charge light) when you Soft Reset?
yes!
yes, the first sign of life, when pluged in via usb to the pc, when i soft reset i get a red blink
any ideas?
Try holding down Light + power for at least 5sec. and while still pressing, do a soft reset.
If you dont go to BootLoader then try to increase the Hold down Light + Power some more.
And BTW. dont get stressed, keep cool.
Youl just **** it even more up if you get stressed, Ok
k, i just tried that, everytime i let go fo the soft reset button the pc says the usb device is not recognized, but still nothing on the screen
lol yeah ur right
thanks for the help
NP. now run the original upgrade for your device...your device is in boot loader right?
nope no bootloader, the screen is completely blank

Look closely, it wont have backlight on, so look really closely.
Remove the SD card and Sim, and just keep trying different time intervals with the "holding down Light + power for at least 5sec. and while still pressing, do a soft reset."
And if you had low battery when you started the upgrade, the use your Wall charger, not USB charger...and let it stay in for 1/2 hour before proceding.
Keep us updated
i removed the sim and sd, and have tried many different intervals, i charged the device all night last night with teh wall charger, still no luck
Hmmmmm, this is a bit strange.
The exact same thing happend to me some 5 days ago.
I managed to get it back with this trick.
Try Soft Reset between every try....just hang in there suddently it wil come to life
Do a ATX-reset/Destat.
Remove charger, battery etc and push in on/off button for 30sec twice. Then push down as many keyboard buttons as you can for a little while too. This way you "drain" it and everything should be reset. Try again.
Works especially well on computers that don't wanna POST. Same thing with cellphones, TV's, remotes etc.
ATX-Reset/Destat. Remember that one. Can solve loads of glitches.
How do I know?
Don't ask I work with these kind of issues every day.
i just tried the atx reset destat idea, it didnt boot it up
ive tried many different intervals now, ive spent hours trying to get this to work
bosjo were u connected to the pc while trying to get it into bootloader?
i've just updated the ROM on my artemis, after CID unlocking etc. It was working fine, although it seemed to occasionally power off whilst copying files to it via AS. Thinking it was the SD card I removed it, and now it won't turn on. Plugging into power for a few mins gives a red light on the top, but I can't power the thing on.
Anyone want to give me some tips on what I can do to rescue it?
Download this HTC P3300 WWE factory rom here http://rapidshare.com/files/19322112/HTC_1.12.405.01_026790_WWE_SHIP.rar . Now first launch Bootloader (multi color screen) and just run the ROMUpdateUtility.exe from the rar, voila your device unbricked .
Bootloader: Press voice dialing & on/off button at the same time till you see a multi color screen (red/green/blue stripes)

Your mobile is actually turned on but backlight is set to lower so your screen does not appear. It 's a known bug changing backlight by itself. It happened to me too with Β&Β4 when I enable Batery Status tray Icons. And happened again on B&B 4.3 twice with no reason and Thanks God not to lower setting.
You have two options (both painfull).
1. Hard reset.
2. Reflash.
Good Luck
i thick it's easyer than reflash or hard reset, just plus the artemis to a usb or to the charger and your screen bright will be at full bright. Once done that, simply adjust the bright when running with battery at control panel.

I'm presuming that it's not actually related to the flash, until proved otherwise though - no-one else has reported any issues and as it was a 2nd hand but new to me handset it seems more likely it already had a fault. Annoying, though.

my friend had a similar problem with his charmer, although h never cooked it.
if you are in london, go to southall, they will fix it for £20
try plugging in to the charger if the little orange light comes on, its a phone fault, if the little light doesnt come on, your phone is not holding charge, either way can be fixed
Orbit cannot be switched on, and cannot be charged

Hi, I'm having a similar problem as you described. When the charger is plugged into my Orbit, the little light does not come on. Moreover, when try to switch my phone on, it turns on and starts booting. But before it could boot further than the O2 splashscreen, it shuts off. Occassionally, I do succeed in turning it on, which it would turn it itself off at random from a few mins to a few hours after turning the phone on. I'm able to access the red, green, blue screen without any problems, and it can be turned on (ie the phone remains in the red, green blue screen) indefinately untill the battery runs out. I've tried re-flashing with the O2 official WM6 (which i was using for a few months already) which didn't make a difference. I'm able to access the phone through activesync just fine, but it wouldn't charge throughj the USB connection as well. I'm currently charging my battery with my friends Orbit.
Would any guru have any clue on what's going on with my phone? Can it be fixed?
Is there an option to stop it turning itself on when the chargers pluged in and unpluged?
turn on to android or recovery?
the phone screen turns on when i plug and unplug the charger, would just like to disable this if possible
the phone is on, screen off.
and you plug it to charger and the screen is on?
if it is, go to:
menu-settings-applications-development.
see the box of the "stay awake"
yep that what im on about, but the box is unticked, and ticking it makes no difference?
hmm, you can try mark it, restart the phone, and unmark and restart.
done, but still the same?

That would stop the screen to turn off while charging, not prevent it from turning on. I think there is no way to stop this.
if he set a time out for the screen, the scree supposed to go off.
in this position, the next thing is the "stay awake".
when stay awake is marked, the screen stay on when he connected to charger.
if the stay awake is not marked, the screen need to proceed like he set in the time out.
which rom do you have?
if you have a custom one, you can ask the creator.
you can use the power button to close the screen manually.

standard original rom, 1.39.110.1
basically, when i put the phone from my pocket into my car dock thats hard wired, it turns the screen on. Simple solution press the power button to turn it off again, same when i remove the phone from the dock it turns the screen on, again the power button sorts it, but its a PITA !
never had this issue with previous HTCs, none being android tho?

fair comment , just reread your op and realised it's not the recovery whilst charging issue your having, but phone turning on when plugging in, yes?
yep, not doing no fancy flashing roms or rooting stuff just yet, just simple stuff like trying to get the phone to charge without it automatically waking up the screen
I'm having the same problem. I would like to try the battery calibration trick i found here but it requires me to charge my phone while turned off. But whenever i plug in the charger my DHD turns on and goes into CWM menu screen. Is there a fix for this?

You are having a different problem. He is taking about how the phone wakes up when it is on and you unplug it from the charger.
I have the same problem but not sure if its a problem or a feature.

Someone Swyped my idea.
The G3 just dropped down on the floor with the circle case. Then It was working some minutes apparently with no problem, until I myself turn the phone off and restart it. Then the device just didn't turn on. The only thing is that the screen is black and the led notification blinking green and blue
when i connect the charger, the red led blinks once and then disappears, then after 30 seconds the red led appears which apparently shows that the phone is charging the battery. Also When I connect the phone to the PC, a sound of connection is heard from PC but the PC doesn't complete the device recognition process as no new device is found.
I tried to make a hard reset, but nothing happens when I press the power and volume down keys. Tried some other tricks with the battery and the hard keys on the phone but no result at all, as the same story just repeats. Does anybody have a solution for the problem? This devise is the only android device I have
Help
Please Help :crying:

Did you do anything else after/during the time that the phone was off? And is there no possibility that you cracked the LCD digitizer? I mean it might sound strange but this is what I had with my old phone. I dropped it, nothing serious but then I put it in my pocket and upon taking it out I noticed the screen not turning on. As stated above, my digitizer was broken and multiple people told me that the digitizer had a small crack which I didn't notice, then when I put it in my pocket I put too much pressure on the digitizer cracking it. The LED-light did work though, and this sounds very similar so my advise going to the store and asking wether they know what the problem might be.
(Hopefully this was helpfull hehe)

If you Don't see the LG splash screen when pressing the power button it seems like a screen or digitizer problem for sure.
BUT;
after you try turning it "on" let it sit a few minutes and see if you can call your self or send a text to see if it makes noise vibrates etc. to confirm a screen problem.
OR
Also you can try putting it into download mode.
Battery pull (don't turn on)
plug USB into phone but not computer
Hold volume down AND then plug usb into computer
if this comes up to a pic of something on the phone it will be software related. to get out of this mode you can do a battery pull.
Remember to always read up on topics and things you are doing. There are guides here on XDA to help you out.
Hope you get your phone working

I didn't do anything special after/during the time the phone was off. I checked the screen very carefully under a lamp. No particular sign of crack. Thank you very much for sharing ur experience.:good:

Hope you fix your phone fast
Yeah... Probably it's a hardware problem. Someone who checked the phone in order to fix it, said that the problem had been with the device board. Even though I was satisfied with the phone, I have found out that the G3 is a sensitive device, as the height of the table from which it dropped down wasn't too much. So always take care of your G3 phone.
