Yesterday I plugeed my charger and wen to the other room, when I came back in a few hours the phone was completely DISCHARGED. If I unplug the charger and plug it back, first it flashes red, then red continues glowing (as if charging), then it flashes red and green a few times and then both lights turn off and it doesnt charge.
It seemed to me that it continues to charge while powering on and of (orange was glowing), but stops charging when booted (it says i should connect the charger and keeps dsicharging)
I thought it was a faulty battery, so I tried a method i found here to charge a phone using a fastboot batch file. Now my phone is fully charged via fastboot, but IT STILL WONT CHARGE WHEN BOOTED. I tried factory reset a few times, but no use.
The battery seems to be ok, because after fastboot charge the phone works ok and has same life time, but how do I get it to charge when booted?
And still if i boot it when powered off, i see green and orange lights flashing (though it cant be overheat) and then the charging stops.
F did u try changing the charger

Hi there,
I stored my phone for little longer than a month, when i decided to charge it and use it, it didn't charge (plugged to charger for one hour but no orange LED).
while searching with google someone was having same problem, he solved his by plugging the charger first then inserting the battery.
when i plug the charger without the battery in, the phone blinks orange and green,
if i plug the battery when its blinking, it starts charging (orange LED), left it that way till its green (took couple of hours).... but the bad news is, it still doesn't turn ON.
Any idea whats the problem is??
Possibly your phone think the battery is still empty after loading at charger.
Try to boot into recovery, when the charger is plugged in, load until the led is green, and then wipe battery stats. I think it's worth a try.

Could be your battery is dead if you stored the phone for over a month without first charging it. Do you know anyone with the same working battery? Might be worth asking to borrow it and see if works with your phone.

I had this same problem with my Nokia C1-01. I left it to charge overnight, in the morning I pulled out the charger and put it back in again and it started charging.
Maybe this will help you!
Guys i am on Insert Coin Rom.
And tonight i ran out of battery and when i came home i put my phone on charger . And later switched it on and saw it is 21% and then again switched it off and then left it over charger and after few min i remove it from charger and tried to turn it on it doesnt turn on.
And now i charging it over usb at my pc and now red led blinking and it doesnt turn on too!!!
What to do?
This is something i havent herd of before...maybe another member can help you!
have you tried switching on with vol button to get into bootloader?
Red blinking LED means very low battery (not enough to power on the phone), best to charge it with wall plug for at lest 1hr and the phone should turn on again.
USB charging is very slow and might not work when red LED is flashing.
I don't think the phone will charge when switched off with clockworkmod recovery installed.
Don't worry, this happened to me before with custom ROM, just leave it plug in to wall charger and the phone will reboot after 1 to 2 hrs, then it will continue to charge normally.

This made the trick.
My Xperia S on CM10 (FXP211) is refusing to boot up. I mean it boots up but then shuts down in a few seconds as it doesn't charge after the boot up. It was fully discharged and switched off this morning and i have been charging it with the AC wall charger since more than 2 hours. Just when it boots up; after the bootup screen, the LED starts to blink red although it is a continuous red (charging indicator) while it's off. I have TWRP v2.3.3.0 installed.
(I am sorry but i couldn't find a feasible solution on the forums.)
Turn off the phone and let it charge thorough the night. 2 hours is too less to fully charge your discharged phone.

If red led blinking then u have to charge with universal battery charger
i had same experience i kept mob in charge for 1 whole day it keep blinking red led 3 times
charge with universal charger for 30min
Problem started after restoring a nandroid backup. Kept the phone for charging overnight next day it was dead.
The Problem:
1) Phone does not charge fully through USB/Wall Charger tried all types of cables official/aftermarket.
2) The Red LED keeps blinking then becomes stable for sometime then shuts off. Then again need to plug out and plugin the charger again the same cycle continues.
3) When the Red LED becomes stable can boot the phone in OS/Boot-loader/Recovery (5.8.4.0) but it switches of automatically after sometime. In OS the battery seems to be stuck at 2% and does not charge beyond that.
4)Even tried to charge it using Fast-boot method using the script. But the voltage seems to gradually decrease instead of increasing and the device switches off again.
5)Have tried to recalibrate the battery by VOL UP+ VOL Down+ Power and even wiped batterystats through recovery.
Please help me troubleshoot the problem.

simply change the boot loader. similar stuff happened to me when i was in CM. change boot loader and dont open it. charge it with wall charger and then go into recovery then flash a new rom. i don't recommend nandroid backups. use google's backup.

How do change bootloader ?, its not able to flash anything through fastboot as the charge is too low.
sorry wrote wrong i meant change kernel. the only thing you can do is shut off the phone then wait for it to charge. then go to fast boot and flash a new or stock kernel.

Man Mr Hofs say: After all this trying i sense a faulty battery and I think is faulty battery. Just try to repleace your battery
OK now it seems that the phone can charge through USB port only charged till 100% green light came on. But stops charging after a while when connected to a Wall charger and starts discharging.
I Have tried to charge it with original wall charger, another one from the HTC Desire Z charger and tried various usb cables too. But none of the wall chargers work with it.
This seems very weird

Finally exchanged it for Samsung I8552 - Galaxy Grand Quattro + $31 good riddance :good:
This is my biggest problem, the charging port just doesnt work properly! i connect it, it charges just fine, 100% in an hour or so, then it drains throughout the day i get home from work, from about 8-5/6 its down to about 50/45% i plug it in and no charge, or even worse half way through the day it'll pop up saying charger not charging battery, with nothing connected into the charger! its just died on me and will not charge at all, until i plugged it into my computer via fastboot and the lil blue light pops up and is now charging. Slowly, but is charging. any ideas as to why it isnt charging through wall charger? all official cables, and around 5 it was charging, in work fine. i get home and it doesnt charge.
Another problem is when i turn it off (Press the power button>Power off) it doesnt turn off, it forever restarts, red light, sony screen, black screen-repeat.
Any Ideas???
