Hi, I accidentally drop my tilt 2 on the ground. So the battery just went out and fall on the snow. After i wiped out water on both battery and the phone, I plug in the battery, turn on my phone.
before I dropped the phone, there should be like 70% if battery. However, I only got 1% of the battery at that time.
When I try to charge it use wall charger, the phone says it can't charge the phone. I should use the designed battery from manufacture. However, the battery i'm using is the one just come with the phone!
then I tried to restart the phone to see if that would help, then My phone can't start anymore. the best situation is it will display the AT&T logo with like radio version, etc those information, and then turned into black screen.
For most of the time, it just doesn't respond.
What can I do? If I buy a new battery on ebay or somewhere, will that help?
Thanks a lot

hi everyone,
i've got this problem for a while, you see i got this DASH from my cousin who sent it to me and told me to buy a new battery because thew old one was crash so i bought one on ebay and it arrived a few days ago.
but the battery has 3.7v so its full but the phone doesn't seem to turn on, it won't turn on. don't have idea of what going on.
even while charging it doesn't show signal of being alive, neither the screen nor the led turn on.
if anybody has any idea
I paid US$18.00 for the battery and the battery cover....cheap
you know that can be the problem because after i received the battery I went to a cell phone store in order to get a charger but when the guy plugged in the phone it doesn't show anything, neither led nor screen went on. then he used a charger without pins so he could charge the battery directly ahd so he did. I didn't pay attention to the fact that it hadn't passed 5 minutes when the battery was at 3.7v from supposedly be new without any charge.... .
CLARIFYING DOUBTS::::::
First of all I live in Dominican Republic
Second of all is that my phone doesn't work, doesn't turn on. My cousin in USA sent it to me last week but it hasn't battery, so I ordered one at Ebay. And When a tried to turn my cell phone on it didn't work, it didn't turn on...Even when the battery is charged..Full.... Sad Crying or Very sad
While charging cell phones normally either turn the Screen On or turn the lights/Led on showing that is charging, What my phone doesn't do...
Summarizing It won't turn on
PD: The Phone is new, it has no more than a month used...
I hope you understand better now..
Thanks
help help help
and also i used a multimeter in order to measure the battery power while charging and turning the cell on. when charging it was ascending but (unplugged) when i tried to turn it on the level of the battery descended quickly from 3.6v to 1.3 and lower rate......just because i was trying to turn it on.....
ANYBODY KNOW WHATS GOING ON??????
HELP!!!
I've got a TMOUS TP2 which appears to be stuck in a reboot loop of sorts cause I can't charge the battery.
I've read through the forums and I saw a few similar problems like this but it seems like it those they were stuck at the bootloader, and that's not the case for me.
Basically the battery was down to 14% and I turned off the phone last night intending to charge it this morning. Somehow the battery dropped to 1% by the time I went to turn it on this morning, and it shutdown (really just lost power) right after I started it. So I go to plug it into the wall charger and then:
charge light comes on
after a few seconds charge light goes off
the phone tries to boot (does little vibrate, shows splash)
after the splash screen, phone loses power
charge light comes back on
then tries to boot after a few seconds.
repeat
If left unplugged the phone just sits there dead, but upon plugging it in, it tries to boot.
I've seen it where the phone doesn't have enough power to boot and just needs to be charged for a while, but I can't seem to do that here.
Anyone have any idea how to prevent it from trying to boot after the AC adapter is plugged in?
Thanks

If you're desperate...you might try doing a hard-reset.
Why would that help? I don't know...except sometimes when really stuck it helps to just change the situation...try something completely different.
Of course, a hard-reset deletes all data and applications that you've put on the phone, which is why I suggested it as a recourse if desperate.
Probably keep the phone plugged in while doing hard-reset.
Same problem, solved by itself
Hi,
I had a similar problem with a standard TP2, it was clear a battery fault. Phone was working well with a new battery and, of course, another working phone couldn't boot up with the faulty battery.
I took out the defective battery and let it aside for almost 2 weeks. After that it started to work, but the capacity is clearly smaller.
So from my experience, a hard reset wouldn't help you.

Yes, it goes without saying -- though it's good you did -- that if you have access to another battery that's an obvious thing to try first.
The hard reset is worth trying, in general, for otherwise-unresolvable phone issues.
It's a dead battery. Same exact thing you describe happened to me. Granted, it was because of water damage but same symptoms. Thinking the phone was dead I went and bought a new one. Then I decided to try the new battery, bam, phone back alive. Returned the phone and bought a new battery. By the way, the dash2 battery fits as well. Tmobile stores didn't know it... But the connectors were the same do I tried in the store and it worked.

So it was indeed a dead battery. Oddly I found someone who had a CMDA TP2 from Verizon (mine is GSM TMO), and was able to pop my battery into their phone for a minute or two and charge it to about 5%, then put it back in my phone and all was well. With their phone, plugging in the charger did not cause the phone to start up and then power cycle.
That's really weird "glitch" if you want to call it that. So mental note, don't let the battery run down too far.
I was charging my Evo on my computer today and all of a sudden my battery died. Now it won't turn back on. After the first attempts to turn it on it would only get as far as the first HTC Evo 4G screen, then it would turn back off. This happened about three times and now it won't do anything at all.
I also noticed that when I put it on the wall charger that the red LED light doesn't even come on anymore.
Does anyone have any idea what this could be or how to fix it? I hope it's only the battery, because I can replace that!!! But I hope that's it. I don't really have enough money to be buying a new phone right now.
PLEASE HELP....SOMEBODY PLEASE!!!
P.S.
I had just installed an app called "Juice Defender" about an hour before my phone died. It's an app that's supposed to make your phones battery life last longer. I didn't configure it or anything. I just installed it. If anyone is famillier with this app is it possible that this could have caused this issue?
Just pull the battery & put it back in, then stick it on the (wall) charger overnight. The battery's probably just super-dead.
If it's not fixed in the morning, take it to Sprint & let them test a different battery. If it's your phone they should give you a new one for free as long as you have insurance.
The battery is super drained, let it sit on the charger for a couple of hours.
It worked!!
I tried what you've suggested. I left it on the charger overnight. Around six, when I woke up, it still wouldn't work. I removed the battery one last time and put it back on the charger. Now, all of a sudden, the LED light came back on. It flashed on and off about six times and then it stayed on.
I'm really relieved. Gonna leave it on until it's fully charged.
Thanks for the info.
Just hope it doesn't happen again.
Well glad that it worked. Just be sure to when the Evo starts flashing the red notification light, you need to get it to a charger. If you're out and about, I turn mine completely off at that point.
I hooked up my TP2 to the charger after school and my phone seemed to be fine.
The battery is kinda weak these days and I should probably buy a replacement, but I haven't had anything happen quite like this...
Late in the night, I checked my phone and noticed it was in an endless loop of - vibrate, then show stock pinkish and white welcome screen (Tmobile), turn off, repeat. I vaguely remember the screen turning on and off earlier in the day, but I didn't pay much attention until now.
So, I took the SDCard out thinking it was XDAndroid messing things up, but it continued to loop on and off.
Then, I took the battery out to see if I could get it to start with just the charger. It would not. I thought this was strange, since I took the battery out while it was plugged up a few days earlier and it stayed on.
I also tried the tiny little reset button in the hopes that it would stop the loop. But of course, that didn't help.
Eventually, I pulled out my old Tmobile Dash. The old Dash booted fine yet I haven't charged it in several months. Everything about this old phone is excellent, and to this day I think it's one of HTC's finest phones.
I looked at the batteries. Same power connectors, nearly the same output. 500mAh difference between the two, but they had the same voltage. So I stuck the Dash battery into the Touch Pro 2. Unfortunately, the Dash's battery has a tiny notch on it that prevents me from using it. Looks like I could tear that off easily... but I figured it was there for a reason and looked online for solutions.
I couldn't find anything online that seemed to help.
So... I tore the little notch off of the Dash battery. It was a lot easier than I thought it would be, since it's not actually part of the battery, but instead part of the plastic wrapping around the battery.
After that I was able to line up the connectors and hold the battery in place. I didn't have to touch anything and the phone came to life.
Oh great! I thought. Then I plugged the phone to the charger and took the battery out. The phone died. I was surprised that the phone couldn't stay on as I've seen before. I tried this a few times, switching the batteries out as fast as I could.
No matter how fast I switched them, the only result would be an endless boot loop and no charge.
At least now I knew it was the battery. I had assumed it was XDAndroid (I had just installed the October kernel - which by the way is much more stable and fasterthan what's used in the July FRX07 release package).
Since Android wasn't suspect anymore, I thought I'd try booting into it with the Dash battery. Once it was done booting into Android, and with the charger connected, I took the battery out.
It stayed on.
Now I was getting somewhere!
I put the original battery back into the Touch Pro 2, put it in Airplane mode (turning off all wireless devices), and now it's charging.
It was kinda funny to see the charging levels during this process. It was at 94% with the Dash battery, then I took out the battery and it stayed there. After putting in the TP2 battery it went down gradually to 54%, and it probably sank lower before rising again. It's now at 71% I'm thinking of maybe turning it off and leaving it connected to the charger to see if it'll start with the loop again. If it doesn't start a loop, then it'll charge faster since it'll be turned off.
Long story short:
When this happens to your Touch Pro 2, it's your battery. I don't recommend fooling with a Dash battery like I did, instead, buy a stand alone battery charger like this one: http://www.amazon.com/Travel-Charge..._1_4?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1318308064&sr=1-4
Or maybe buy a brand new battery. Don't buy cell phone batteries from Amazon though, try getting it from HTC if you can.
My experience sucked, and I hope this post will be of some use to other people still using this particular phone.
Current issue: The phone won't boot. It goes to the Samsung boot screen, and then nothing else happens, the lights along the bottom don't light.
When plugged in with the battery, the charging battery shows up with the little animation but that also freezes, and it never makes it to the point where you have the green charging indication.
History: I have had some dropsies, and the result is that I now have a refurbished phone about 2 weeks old. At one point they shipped me a brand new phone, so now I have two batteries.
I thought this would be a great thing! Having two batteries solves the fact that the Epic's battery life is so awful...compared to more recent phones.
I had been using the stable version of Cyanogenmod 10 posted to the cyanogenmod website.
I pulled the phone out of my pocket, there was no juice, no nothing. Thing would not turn on. I had at that point misplaced my battery...no idea where it was. I plugged the phone in and nothing happened, no change to the phone, no lights, no nothing.
So...
I did a ton of Odin and eventually got the phone up and running again. I was using the most recent Cyanogenmod 9.
Phone had no issues for about a day. I was going to bed, so hooked it up to the charger and went to sleep. When I woke up, it was frozen on the battery charge screen, no charging animation, no green battery, just frozen.
So now I can't do anything. I have Odin'd back to stock about a dozen times. I have used my stock cable, a blackberry cable, and my Nexus 7 Asus cable. Each time the Odin is a complete success. I've tried with no battery, no sim card, sim card no battery, battery no sim card, etc.
The reason I think it MIGHT be a battery issue is as follows. When I Odin with no battery in, the phone reboots to the Samsung screen, the lights at the bottom flicker before it goes dead. I'm assuming that since the phone won't work without the battery, it looks for the battery, doesn't find it, and turns off. Then when it goes into the charge screen, it animates before it turns off finding no battery.
I now have both batteries and have tried this millions of times. I think it's a battery issue. There must be some charging going on when I do plug it in, because now both batteries work in the phone. And neither will go past the Samsung screen with no other lights.
Help!!!

it might be the end of life of your phone. i got one a few days ago that was doing the same thing, i could get it to boot run for a few minutes then it would freeze and id pull battery then id have to restore the kernel and boot images back to get the phone to boot again.
Does it stay working on stock? I remember a problem a while back posted here where it would only work on stock but not on any custom roms for some reason

It won't boot into anything right now. I'm only trying to flash stock. It freezes on the Samsung screen.
