Hi, i would recommend that you should change the battery, as a showroom phone would be used by people all the time, using the phone and charging the battery at the same time will make the temp of the battery increase and therefore shorten the battery life.

Very Weird Battery Problem

Hi everyone! (Sorry the bad english)
I have an HTC S621 (Dash) whit a very weird problem.
Some months ago, the battery has become to discharge very fast. Like From 100% to 0 in 35/40 minutes.
But even whit 100% of charge, if you turn wifi on or make a call, the phone turns off in a few seconds. And when I turn it on again, it show 60% charged.
So, wondering its a battery problem, I bought a new one and unfortunately the same problem still happen.
So, someone have the same problem? Can anyone help me? Tanks a lot!
Not strange infact u would have found threadz with exact same issue if searched? new battery solves it "generally".
I am not sure that I understood what you wanted to say, but:
- I bought a new battery > Not Work
- I've search in the forum, have no found some one with the same problem (The people usually solved your problems changing the battery, not work for me)
- I've originaly used an original ROM from HTC, but I try lots of ROMs (WM5, 6 and 6.1) > not work too.
Tanks!
same problem here, but new battery solved it, this is my fourth battery for my dash since 2007...

Herp derp, if a new battery and different ROM's didn't, it's the actual phone.
Lrn2deduct xD
I have tried something different: I have an old nokia phone and the battery is 3,7V/860Ma. It have almost the same size of the Dash battery, is a little small. Well I put her on Dash and works fine for hours. With Wifi, phone and bluetooth on. I set to never power off the backlight and open an internet radio to test and just works fine. The only problem is the battery metter is not show the real state of the battery. It jump from 90% to 89% and stop. After almost 50m it jumps again to 70%, etc..
I wondering if the phone have a problem to charge the battery only. So I have a new questions:
There will be a problem charge the 860Ma battery on S621 to test? The Original has 960Ma. I fear explosions!
Tanks!

My post meant generally a new battery fixes it to which would have found via search, if not then it's hardware related or you baught a duff battery? "has been known to happen with new battery too" also can be found via search
Would not advise using a battery from another phone full stop.
Sounds like your Dash has had it's last dayz

Yea...
I will try two last things... use the warranty to exchange this battery for a new one to be sure that is not a factory problem on her, and buy a standalone wall charger to recharge the battery without the phone.
I need this phone alive a little more time because he belongs in truth to my wife, (I bought a Kaiser for me a few months) and I will not buy a new one for her this days (sorry honey)...
Smartphones like Dash are cheap on North America and Europe but on Brasil they cost around R$ 500,00 ($270,00) and for now is too much for me
Tanks!

If the Dash cost $270.00; how much was the Kaiser?
yea that surely calls for a new Battery !
just this time try to get a high capacity battery like 2200mA/h or something because the standart one is only 960mA/h I got my 2200mA/h with abt 20 $ on ebay which is very cheap ! and it stays a hell lot of time with wifi Bluetooth on...
Boa sorte
My battery just went was a 2009 one, just gonna order the 1300 battery shall be Goood! you probably killed it via charging USB or overclocking on Kavana Build etc or it just smoked itself, My 2008 Made S621 died after months too, 1300 stock size battery online is a good choice for this phone.
A new batter should fix it but if you get the original type it's going to do the same thing. You need a battery that has been produced more recently than the originals.
Im pretty sure its cause i overclocked.... but i wanted a nice new 1300 maH battery whats 30 bucks lol )

R u sure? coz i connected it to pc till its light turned green from orange.
Two months ago i went HTC service center, they told me your phone is dead, its board problem and it will cost u INR 19000.
I brought it for Rs. 17000, so y should i pay so much.
do you have wall charger?
PC giving 0.5A, charger 1A. May not sound so, but it's makes difference
Put your phone on wall charger for night(aprx 10h, don't bother light) maybe helps

If motherboard is really death, check ebay for working devices (with cracked display or something like that) and make swap
OK i will give try, and let you know. Btw any idea how much new battery will cost ?
And how will i know its original one?
in Poland, high quality (not orginal, but comparable) battery costs about 416 INR

Hey Guys,

So, now I want someone to tell me about a battery that can bring my phone back to life (without damaging it of-course). I cannot use a note battery as it is big in size and I dont want to harm my G3 for that (by cutting and molding).
Please somone help me, I really depend on my G3 Community for this..........

[Q] Dead HTC One V

My out of warranty, overclocked, Sphongled! HTC One V overheated and froze. Shortly, it stopped charging and went Dead :crying:.
The customer service guys say its battery leaked and quoted 10k for fixing it (I bought it for around 17k) Should I try and fidget around the screws and see if I can somehow replace the battery myself? Where can I sell it for a decent price? (Squeaky clean and shining!) Really need your take on this!
P.S. Smartphones are a bad, bad way to lose your money!

Thanks for the link!
Okay so I took my One V apart. I tested the battery with a multimeter, but it doesnt seem to accept charge. Would it be safe to plugin another Li-on 3.7 battery from a different model just to see if the device powers up?
I know i can order an original replacement battery, I want to confirm the problem is indeed with the battery and not with the mobo or somthing before i spend cash on a new battery.

Well i don't think the problem is only with battery....
You can try...
What i think is...sice they say battery has leaked out... So it must have damaged ua IC or motherboard... So better test it...with some battery...before ordering a new one....
Sent from my HTC One V using xda app-developers app
Give it a try to see if it works..personally I wouldn't spend 10k on repairs.
Put in a few bucks more and you could buy a better phone..
Tried replacing battery with a 3.7V Nokia . Didnt boot up. Guess the problem is with the Mobo. :crying:
Any of you guys have experience with http://www.karmarecycling.in/eportal/? They quote 2k+ for recyclying my dead phone.

Disappoiment asus

One of the worst smartphones . It doesn't worth its money . I used have other chinese smartphones at a price of 100e and they proved to be much better . Untortunately , i didnt expect that kind of amateur work about their software . I downloaded 3 OTA (ROOT NO ROOT OLD AND NEW )everything . with even worse and worse result . Im sure it is not lollipop problem , because other companies support lollipop with better quality . A great amount of asus customers have to many compaints about this product. You can tell , by looking at their official forum . The Asus company gives no solutions. in the official forum , they posted that whoever makes any complaints , they will ban hims out of the forum, with excuse of propaganda. +I have tried every solutions in forums , once week install ota and every single day reset factory. All these are enough for me!!!!! asus must consider its costumers not just as money or testees on their products , but they should be more respectful. I ve wasted 300+ euro for a piece of garbage and i feel disappointed and fooled .
Who is going to pay us back , for our 300+ euro ??
personally , i dont have extra money to spend. I invested on this ZNF 2 disaster my 300 euro , which i was trying to save them for a few months.
worth its money ???
4 GB RAM ????? --> drain ram
3000 mah battery ????? hahahaha.....full drain battery ( my phone 30% switch off )
Dual sim ??? Sim 1 or 2 slot issue everyday
camera ??? Camera Flash gives yellowish outcome
wifi ????? enable all time (tried to close but ramains open )
asus cover ??? always crashed
charging ??? veryyyyyyyyyyyyy slow
and much more ....
yesterday launched its latest OTA and problem continues
tell me ?? worth its money ???
Why wait months to operate the mobile I buy ?? a problem that is very very many

I understand ur frustration but can u please tell us which phone model u have as the high end model only supports fast charging... What version do u have and does the flashing of stock rom gives u any problem... Can u provide more info so that we can help u...
Ze551ml. 32gb , 4gb ram . 1.8 ghz .
... and you think that whining on this forum is gonna solve anything?
I'd say send it back and buy another model from another manufacturer. The only thing which is kind of bad (just a little) is the battery draining by "Android System". One can live with it (my phone lasts 2-3 days). But the rest is awesome for this price!

Dual sim ??? Sim 1 or 2 slot issue everyday What kind of problems? I've never had any SIM issues.
camera ??? Camera Flash gives yellowish outcome Maybe you're just bad at it?
wifi ????? enable all time (tried to close but ramains open ) Change your power management, or turn off "Scanning always available" in Advanced Wi-Fi settings
asus cover ??? always crashed That's new. I use mine all day, every day. Maybe check for update? Wipe cache/data in apps for Cover View?
charging ??? veryyyyyyyyyyyyy slow If you have the fast charger (which I imagine you don't), it's one of the fastest charging devices out there. If you're getting a slow charge, I guarantee it's your charger.

Please see Red in above quote.
Dear Skritlaki87,
Recommend using ASUS ZenUI app called ASUS Support. There are several helpful tips regarding basic troubleshooting techniques for your device including camera troubleshooting, battery troubleshooting, app crashing, how to optimize memory and system performance, and many more.
Another note to help improve battery life, please ensure to turn off 'Wifi Scanning always available.' To do this go to Apps/Settings/WiFi Settings/Advance Settings(menu in upper right corner)/Scanning always available/ turn Off.
Also what model did you purchase? Please note only 2.3GHz plus 4G ram (ZE551ML)" is bundled with 18W adapter, while other spec bundled with 7W adapter and will require longer charge. Please see http://www.asus.com/us/support/Sear...5-480F-AADA-FE49EDD81C01/?keyword=boostmaster
Sincerely,
Frank

In Germany we say that some devices which are not functioning properly were produced on a Monday (Montagsgerät)
Jokes aside: Maybe you should send in the phone to the manufacturer as you got warranty on the device. The yellowish photos, the SIM issues, the crashing apps, etc.
Maybe your device is just defective on hardware side
I feel I have t agree with Skritlaki87
I've had the above phone fr 5 weeks
everything was fine after I installed the latest firmwares [last 2 May and June]
- network drops: especially when idle or after using wifi: calls get straight to answering machine and no notification; SMS I get them 3-4 hours later or longer
- phone wont even see external SD card. took it out and in but no joy; tried different ones they worked before and they work in my shield tablet [lollipop and ubuntu]; I also noticed in apps that 'external storage' has 0 kb and is greyed out meaning I cant clear cache or disable/ force stop
- can't get it to vibrate: again was fine before upgrades
- I did:, wiped cache after FW upgrades and updated all zen apps and everything else. I have a micro SIM [not cut one]. Yes I did a hard reset as well
- phone sometimes dies in network and people call me and it goes straight t answering machine; most times I don’t get any notifications [SMS] or I get them after 3-4 [many network drops]
I posted these problems in zentalk forums many times but never acknowledged by asus and only tip was to do a wipe cache
useless and appalling support , absolutely not fair; will never buy asus ever again
any ideas please? [oh, I'm on 3 network, bought phone from Italy]
Can't get t use this phone as a phone and losing business

Did you flash a whole firmware update or just the ones provided by the Software update app? I'd at least try this as a last resort:
Download the latest ASUS Firmware (not an update, that's the whole pack, also make sure you have ZE551ML model): http://dlcdnet.asus.com/pub/ASUS/Ze...ser.zip?_ga=1.211888660.1601724807.1432814508
It's not the latest firmware, but I'm running on this one, too and everything is really fine.
Place the file on the root of your internal storage, then reboot just normally. When the Android System started it asks you if you want to flash the file which is located on your internal storage. Of course click yes and see if it works.
IMPORTANT: I noticed, that you need to remove the USB cable from the phone before starting the flashing procedure, otherwise it fails in flashing. Also the flashing take a good amount of time (about 15mins). If it doesn't show an error, just let it work.
Please report back, I'm curious if this fixed your issue

Thanks for that link but I upgraded the firmware this morning to WW 2.17.40.7 and on that link or any other country link there's 2.17.40.6 and ASUS states it's not possible to downgrade so I guess I must wait
I'm gonna chime in here. Out of the many tablets and phones I've had over the years, I'm gonna say this ASUS minus a few quirks. Is awesome for the price. No phone is perfect, and never will be. I've had 3 updates since owning this phone. At least ASUS is working on trying to fix bugs and improve this phone vs other manufacturers that just abandon after one little update. If your unhappy return your phone and buy something with diff problems. Cause the people who gripe all the time will find something wrong with anything.
