Hey,
I don't have any charger, so I have been always charging my Artemis via USB.
A couple of days ago it stopped charging. It happened after I discharged it to a very low level.
When I plug in the USB cable, the amber (or the orange) LED starts to blink. I can see the icon that says that the cable (which is ok) is plugged in, but the battery level is dropping instead of increasing.
I've tried even hard reset.
I haven't tried with another battery, but I've tried to charge the battery with a charger made by myself. It was OK - PDA is working, but I can't still charge it normal way.
Any ideas?
Blinking amber
I have the same problem on my htc p3300, and when i used batti 2.4 i saw that the battery temperature is 432675.5 etc something fake temerature. This is the reason, why my pda unable to charge my battery. If you set your pda in bootloader mode, it will charge your battery!. After 3 or more times i charged it in bootloader mode somethimes the battery temp sensor works normally, and the charge is working as well. Sometimes not.
Bat you can charge your battery allways in bootloader mode.
Sorry for my English.
Try it!
Good luck!
So it's a temp sensor problem? I've had the same problem with my SPV 650 a few times. Hopefully it was never permanent!
hey
Do you know how fix this problem ? Is there problem with battery or with mainboard ? I change rom, radio, battery, charger.If bootloader mode is the best solution?
I wait for answer and your ideas
Hi.
I have Prophet with the same problem. It doesn't charge batt, doesn't turn on - clouds then white screen. And it has happened after deep discharge.
Trying "bootloader mode"
i have the same problem with my dopod p800w. the device work only when it pluged, even when the battery is full (in another device) the notification message appear and it turn off ! Anyone can help me ? Sorry for my English !
im suffering from this problem
any solution?
i am about to purchase a new battery however.. i dont think that would solve the problem..
how do you enter bootloader menu?
Hi,
Yesterday I came across strange issue. In WinMo, when the phone was off it was charging normally untill the battery was fully charged...
After Flashing Android to NAND I can not do that. It seems to be charging (orange LED is on) for about 10 sec. and than the Display blinks with white light and the phone dies completely.
The only thing you can do after that is to pull out the battery and put it back. Than you can turn the phone on and charge as usually.
What is that issues origin? Battery driver? Or another thingie in Firmware? It seems to be quite strange, that it lights the display even with the phone being off...

My Kaiser does the exact same thing, and what it is, is for some reason the phone is booting back up. I came across this the other day, and my phone did the exact same thing described, and not sure what I did, but I managed to turn on the screen and Android was booted up to the lock screen.
It's even done it when I plug the phone into A/C power without the battery even connected.
so here is why it happens, basicly what would happen is in WinMo when the phone would turn off and boot into a charge loop and it would charge and shut off when finished our kernel doesnt have this built into it so it just boots like normal when power is applied

yup... happens to all of us, its not a big deal... there are a lot of worse problems devs are trying to solve... maybe whn they reach a point where the kernel is more stable they should pay attention to the details like this (and the camera driver, camcoder... etc)

Well that answers my question... Yah knew it was something inside the kernel, just didn't know if it was a bug, or something that wasn't implemented yet.
Of course this is low priority task but I just wanted to have that confirmed to know, that my oldie holdie is not broken or what
Quick question:
How old is your kaiser and/or battery ?
About 5 years with original battery

It used to be that if Linux NBH was flashed, the phone wouldn't charge at all when off. Then somebody (dzo I believe) added code to the kernel so that the phone turns on when it is plugged in, so that it will charge. That used to work, with a full complete boot. Now, as you say, the phone tries to wake up but doesn't really make it. Maybe we should look into that, we should be able to fix that, maybe by looking carefully at the git logs for the past six months or so.
There are bigger problems, like data reliability, but if somebody wants a problem in the kernel that they can study and perhaps fix, this is a good one to start with.
To correctly charge the battery system need to be on so i can do this:
start kernel
in initrd:
if it found the power connected then the phone wait for power button (trying the sleep mode)
else
start the system
i need some testing to do it.
Windows do quite the same thing.

If only the real code was as easy as the pseudocode =)
Apologies for another not charging thread, i have tried searching for a similar issue but no luck.
I put my DHD to charge as usual last night at around 40%, the charge LED lit up and the battery icon was showing that i am charging.
When i woke this morning, the charge LED and battery icon were still showing that i should be charging yet the phone now only has 33% battery, so clearly hadnt charged. I checked current widget and when the LED and icon show charging i only seem to be getting anywhere between a reading of 40mA and 270mA. With an occasional 300-400mA reading.
I seem to be able to intermittently get the phone to charge and the batt icon to rise by a percent or two but then it seems to stop again. As i am in work at the moment i am having to charge via USB from my PC. Therefore i am currently unable to try another micro USB charger and see if it is indeed the charger or the phone.
Has anyone else had a similar issue, says it charging but it not??
Or anyone have any ideas of a solution??
If it matters i am currently using LeeDrOiD HD V3.3.1 GB. Id rather not have to return it to HTC as i am unsure of how to return the phone to default easily so it could be repaired on warranty.
Thanks in advance,
James
Firstly, download CurrentWidget, set refresh to 15 seconds, and make sure you set it to display battery voltage. If it is showing around 4200mV, it is charged, and you have a problem with the battery gauge.
To double check, turn off your phone, and see if the light goes green at 100%.
Boot back up, just to see if a reset fixes it.
If not, reboot into recovery, and wipe battery stats (or do it properly, turn off, wait until light is green, wait another hour, then boot into recovery and wipe battery stats).
Turn back on, and see if the problem is sorted.

Hi all, for some time i have very odd problem and i dont know how to solve it.
When i use 3G, or browser on wifi for some time ,scroll app drawer very fast,take picture with flash and similar ,phones shutdowns and cant turnoff because its says it have 0% battery, but i just plug it for minut as he is turing on and he can work again, but battery drop goes from 90% to 30%, then i restart phone and its 70% or some other value.
First heappend after i soft bricked my phone.
Dont know is it software,hardware or battery.I have JB 4.2.2, stock (i had root before softbrick)
I instaled antutu battery tester and when when cpu goes 100%, volt just go droping down from 3.9~3.7 to about 2.7V ,screen goes mad, all bright and pink, start flickering,like electromagnetic interference. some time vibration goes to maximum it feals like its going to explode and it just shoutdown.Some time i cant even even get to boot screen witouth waiting 5min. And when its turn of its shows 0% battery and turns off,untill i plug it to charger.
very annoying because I can not use my phone normaly
Have any ides? Sorry for bad english.
If a factory reset doesn't fix it then its hardware.
You record a battery voltage of 2.7V???? Something looks wrong. In normal conditions the 0% state of charge correspond to 3.3V to 3.2V as noticed on my GNex
You have a hardware problem. Only way : back to repair center
i bot new battery and everything is ok now
Hi,
I need help with my xperia ion lt28h..
After installing a .zip (Smooth ion) through CWM Recovery, my phone restarted n booted up normally to the lock screen. After i unlocked the screen, it went blank so I pressed the power button and the normal power off button (and some others) appears, so i power off the phone and it went to a boot loop.
I tried pressing the Volume up + power button and connecting it to flashtool by pressing the volume down button and inserting the usbto flash a new firmware but nothing appeared on flashtool
I tried the Volume up + power button again and again and still nothing.. I then pressed Volume up + power button again but longer and received 2 or 3 vibrations (i can't remember) and now the phone is just Dead. No Screen,No LED light, nothing :'(
I tried charging it for 2+ hours and tried connecting it to my pc to see if it does anything but apparently nothing happens.
Somebody please help me :'( This is my only phone and I have no other
Xperia ion LT28h
Firmware: 6.0.F.0.72 (LT28i 's Firmware)
Bootloader: Unlocked
And Rooted with Busybox installed
help
Anyone?
Help?
Check out this thread here or in general discussion, about recovering phone from soft brick, now after hard reset (10 secs volume up and power button) you probably need wait until your battery is dead (about 40-60 hours). You've got unlocked bootloader so you need to be patient, and you need to take care about your phone. You can damage it more. If you don't understand something from that thread, feel free to ask community.

GUIDE to Solve problem
Managed to Recover my phone to good as new!
Full Guide:
Let the phone charge for 4+ hrs on wall charger (No LED).
After 4-6 hours, Red LED should appear flashing. After a few hours, Red LED should be constant. Continue charging for 25+ hours on wall charger until Red LED disappears or turns Green.
Unplug from wall charger
Run flashtool from PC, flash a stable firmware. Do not plug in phone to PC until it asks to.
While holding volume down, plug in USB - May take up to 10 minutes for the phone to be connected and flashing to begin
Green LED will appear and after a few seconds - flash will run.
Unplug USB and Charge with wall charger.
Phone should be back up and running.

(Your phone will respond & should respond to fastboot and flashmode only when charge is more then factory charging (50%) or allows flashes in between charging cycles)
Ok Now I Understand Your Problem,
Assuming you know the basics of flashing STOCK ROM via Flashtool
Do Not HARD RESET 3 Vibrations. Recovering From This Deep Level Of Soft Brick Is Very Hard, Takes Lots Of Time.
First of All, Please Connect Your Phone To The Wall Charger. Untill it Turns Green. This will Take a Long Time.
You can Work On Your Phone i.e Flashing And Stuff only When it is charged enough for working conditions.
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. Green LED. You Can Start To Recover Your Phone.
Unplug the phone and turn on.
Battery is dead from normal use.
Repeat stages starting at (1)
If your phone is not working but you see a led or have bootloops DO NOT USE HARD-RESET. This can make your phone lock/freeze up until the battery dies. It can take as much as 60hours to die.
How to Recover?
First Calm Down And Understand The Next Few Point. @ronex1234
The memory chips need lose power to clear the bad data and reset the phone. Either by the battery going dead or by unplugging the battery.
You can to leave the phone on a charger to see when the battery dies. Usually the battery will not charge in a soft-brick state and will die while still plugged in. After the reset you should then get the red led. However if you get a red led immediately when first plugged in and no response but red led for a long time, then you may need to leave the phone unplugged and let the battery die.
Only after the chips reset will you get the red led. The RED LED should mean the phone is charging in 'low battery level charge mode'.
Once you get the red led, after the reset, do NOT try to turn on the phone. If you try to start the phone now without fixing the problem you will have to start all over.
This is what you need to do, Read Carefully.
keep charging with wall charger. A charger has a higher current rate and should charge faster than a PC.
Make flashtool ready to flash your stock.ftf file. If you are experiencing errors while flashing the entire ROM try to flash just the kernel, check off all in the exclude box except kernel. At this point your battery is very low and doing this will make the flash process much faster than trying to flash the entire ROM.
Try to connect phone in flash-mode. If your phone has enough battery you will get green led. If the flash fails on the first try, just put it back on the charger and wait about 10-30 minutes and repeat. It may take a while to charge enough to flash.
If you see the red led go out, then try for flash-mode.
If you get bootloops, try to flash between loops. As soon as you notice loop, hold volume down and plug the phone into PC with FlashTool ready. Once the loop starts you have very little time to flash, before the loops drain the battery. If you can not flash, the battery will have to die and phone reset. Then start over with red led.
After you complete the flash, unplug the phone and see what happens. Sometimes it will boot to Sony screen and then shut off by itself, if so plug in to a charger. You should get the red led then the battery charging screen then. After about 20 minutes of red led.
If you get a green led (for flash mode) then press the power button until 1 vibration. The green led should flash 1 time. This will end flashmode and start the phone. If you don't end flashmode the phone will still give a green led whenever plugged in, but it will not charge, until the battery dies and the phone resets again.
If you were able to flash the entire stock.ftf file and your phone has gone from red led to the charging screen, then your phone should now be recovered and turn on normally.
If you could only flash the kernel then you will get bootloops. Again you can unplug and try a hard-reset to turn off the phone. If hard-reset works plug in charger and wait for red led and then charging screen.
If you don't do a hard-reset, the phone boot looping should kill the battery and then plug in charger (this is what I did). Then wait for red led and then charging screen.
Now you should have a good kernel and the phone plugged in. You should have the charging screen with the battery icon and led for 'off-line charge mode'. Charge until over 50%. A quick press of the power button will bring up the charging screen.
Once over 50% then flash the full stock.ftf with a full wipe.
If you got this far but still cannot flash a full stock.ftf file then try to use PC Companion software to REPAIR your phone. Make sure battery is more than 50%.
If all fails then post a copy of the FlashTool log in this thread.

For Me It took Nearly 52 Hours To Die.
If you are too much in hurry..
You can even try to open the case and unplug the power chord from the motherbord of xperia
There are many tutorials to do so.
But i'd not recommend that.
The Idea is to Reset the Memory Chip of the phone my providing power to the circuit.
Just like a reset current.

Once the loop starts you have very little time to flash, before the loops drain the battery. If you can not flash, the battery will have to die and phone reset. Then start over with red led.
~ After you complete the flash, unplug the phone and see what happens. Sometimes it will boot to Sony screen and then shut off by itself, if so plug in to a charger. You should get the red led then the battery charging screen then. After about 20 minutes of red led.
~ If you get a green led (for flash mode) then press the power button until 1 vibration. The green led should flash 1 time. This will end flashmode and start the phone. If you don't end flashmode the phone will still give a green led whenever plugged in, but it will not charge, until the battery dies and the phone resets again.
~ If you were able to flash the entire stock.ftf file and your phone has gone from red led to the charging screen, then your phone should now be recovered and turn on normally.
~ If you could only flash the kernel then you will get bootloops. Again you can unplug and try a hard-reset to turn off the phone. If hard-reset works plug in charger and wait for red led and then charging screen.
~ If you don't do a hard-reset, the phone boot looping should kill the battery and then plug in charger (this is what I did). Then wait for red led and then charging screen.
~ Now you should have a good kernel and the phone plugged in. You should have the charging screen with the battery icon and led for 'off-line charge mode'. Charge until over 50%. A quick press of the power button will bring up the charging screen.
~ Once over 50% then flash the full stock.ftf with a full wipe.
~ If you got this far but still cannot flash a full stock.ftf file then try to use PC Companion software to REPAIR your phone. Make sure battery is more than 50%.
~ If all fails then post a copy of the FlashTool log in this thread.

I feel you are fairly new to flashing and recovering from bricks.

Note :
For Unlock Bootloader Sony has Developers Tool EMMA for flashing official ROM.
Your main aim should be to get back to STOCK ROM now.
I am sorry friend but if the procedure seems too hard for you,
I'd really recommend you to send your phone to repair to sony.
To prevent any accidental hard bricks.
If your phone LED (any color) is responding, your phone can still be recovered.
