Hello All,
As the title states my HOX reboots when I plug it in the wall for charging and this is what I have done and still nothing ....
1:Used various of chargers and it still reboots
2:Changed Roms to many and it still reboots
3pened the phone and gave it a good air dusting
4:Checked the CPU temp when charging at it maxs at 35C
It is rather annoying as I haven't had a full charge in month's now due to this
Can anyone suggest what I can do please?
Kind regards
Jadc
Typical,
Think I have discovered what is causing my mobile to reboot when charging.
It's the power button switch ... it seems to get stuck or something happens when the phone heats up, So i have completely removed it and it hasn't rebooted yet!

Hello! I wasn't able to find anything on this so I'm wondering if my phone is defective...
My phone is stuck in a loop...
1.I plug the phone in it will charge for 5 minutes then try to start up
2.The charging will stop during the boot up (on it own)
3.I imagine there's not enough battery power so the phone will shut off
And this will go on in a continuous loop. Also I can't stop it from booting up so that makes it worse...
I just bought the phone and let the battery drain down the for the first time and it started looping this way. Very odd. I have 2 other HTCs (8925 and 8525) and never had this problem...
So I'm wondering is it
1. The Software (config)
2. The Battery
3. The phone
I've searched the internet and it seems like I'm the only one having this problem...
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Hmmmmmm sounds like a bad phone, I'd return it to your carrier if possible

i had a simular situation w/ my mda...i was on vacation, and when the battery drained, it wouldnt take a charge...the problem was that i was using my girlfriends motorola charger which wasnt strong enough charge a completly drained mda battery...
just ensure you are using the charger that came w/ the phone, as many figure (as did i) that one mini-usb charger is as good as another...
hope that helps...
Having the same issue, my Pro2 charges for couple of minutes than reboots and also the battery won't take a full charge so can Hard Reset .
Anyone else resolved this issue
Try booting your phone without the battery, so it doesn't need to charge
Thanks alot it turned out to be the USB cable. It was defective I was using the charger for my 8925 and it was working no problem but when I switch back to the TP2 it didn't work!
Hey all,
I'm having a bit of a problem with my Nexus. It was working fine up until today, when all of a sudden (when it was low battery) the screen kept coming on every time I turned it off with the low battery warning. Each time it did it seemed like the percentage was going down by one. I restarted the phone and it then told me 0% remaining briefly before shutting off.
Now the battery icon is flashing as if it is being charged even when it is not plugged in. When I plug it in from the mains it also seems to sometimes say Charging (USB) instead of (AC). When I plug it in to charge while the phone is off it does not show a charging icon (waited for a minute or so).
It sounds very similar to the bug reported here. Could this possibly be a ROM/Kernel issue (I'm running Manhattan ROM) or do I have a hardware fault?
Cheers

You are having this problem: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1427539
This is a hardware problem. You should RMA your device, or change the USB charging board yourself.
I had this exact problem myself, and tried many ROM/kernel combinations but it didn't help. As I didn't want to RMA my phone to clove.co.uk, I bought this board (http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=150713366355) which fixed the problem.
Having massive issues right now. Last night I left my phone plugged in AC to charge and ran a sleep tracker app. Woke up this morning and found the phone dead. I tried unplugging and plugging again multiple times and managed to get the Red LED blinking then it went steady indicating it was charging. Turned the phone on but as if it wasn't charging anymore, it powered off within minutes. I managed to get recovery running and factory reset (running CM10). Same issue still there. I even tried leaving the phone in hboot and recovery to charge but after 10 mins the battery went flat again. Now I've just left the phone off and plugged into AC. The blinking LED came on again then went steady - but after 15 mins the LED light disappears. I just left it like that, now the phone tries to boot up but gets stuck at HTC logo. Also it is incredibly hot.
Any ideas? Really need help here.
Additional info, installed NFS: Most Wanted yesterday, tried playing but phone really overheated big time. Could that have cause the motherboard to fry? Just seems odd though cause it boots up fine, just won't stay on - can't even get past the initial setup wizard.
Also I would take it back to Vodafone AU but since I can't get the phone up long enough to restore to stock, they might find out I've rooted and thus voiding my warranty.
I had the same problem. I installed NFS MW and it drained my battery like help and when i tried recharging it it wouldnt charge
at all. Even when i pluged the phone on it wouldnt charge. Tried a different cable. For all it could be a adapter/cable problem.
That was what it was for me. I tried a different charger and it worked. If you are using a different charger, use something with 1A output.
If the led is blinking, it means that the battery is verryy low.
once your phone turns on, turn the airplane mode ON and display OFF and wait a few minutes before using the phone.
no luck

Yea, I tried using a different cable, even tried using my old iPod USB to wall adapter. No luck there, but I think I'm on to something now. Thanks anyway
getting there

Hey, yea I figured that much from searching around. Too bad it's such a big flaw. I couldn't sustain a charge at all when I was still on CM10. Couldn't even finish booting up and it would just die. Voltage was super low was my guess. Tried using the fastboot charging script (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1658084&page=5) and managed to get battery up enough to flash stock boot.img, did a nandroid restore to Stock ROM then flashed stock recovery. Seems to be stable now, in airplane mode and display off. Started up phone at 4% and now it's at 6% so fingers crossed :fingers-crossed: Thanks for the reply though - needing all the tips I can get!
I just bought a used SM-T800. I didn't see any immediate issues but I've noticed it has been intermittently powering off or rebooting on it's own. These aren't graceful shutdowns, it powers off immediately, either when I'm using it or I'm not touching it. It can even happen while the battery is supposedly full and the charger is plugged in. This can happen many times in a row, a lot of times during the bootup process. If I leave the cable unplugged I've noticed if it finishes booting the battery can sometimes claim to be almost dead at like 3% when I thought it was 100% full.
I've done a bit of searching and saw a reference to an issue with a cracked interface to the battery. Is there a known issue with this device regarding this? Any detailed links on this? My alternative was to buy and replace the battery. Anyone else having the same issue?

Yes, I've seen that happen with the video glitching but it doesn't happen all the time.
Currently my device won't boot up anymore. Even with the device plugged in, the surge of power it needs to boot up isn't available from the battery.

As was mine a couple weeks ago, i tried everything...rooting flashing re partitioning, you name it, i did it. NOTHING WORKED!!
Until 2 days ago i opened up the back and noticed that the piece where the battery wire connects to the motherboard was loose i simply placed some foil above it and closed it up again( the foil put pressure on the connection which allowed it to carry power across). And now everything works fine, while its not a permanent solution(ill take it to samsung sometime later this month) it does work and now my tab is fully functional. While i dont know your situation this worked for me so maybe it will work for you...Let me know how it goes!!!!!
First time posting , I guess, usually I just browse through for info... but now I feel a bit in a dead end.
Spent a few days snowboarding with the phone in pocket, so exposure to cold subzero temp. lowest around maybe -10, only symptom during that period was camera started flickering showing purple lines but worked fine later on.
Also had trouble charging one night, as phone spent entire night being plugged in only to show it was discharging the whole time, and battery low in the morning, couldn't get it charge even after cleaning port making sure its clean and dry.
Phone ended up running out juice and powering down completely... it didn't respond for hours (tried different chargers) but than suddenly the power bank I use showed it started drawing about 9V and 0.1/0.2A for some time and it slowly started drawing more power and charging to 100% took more time then usual...
Next time I tried charging it when it became low around 20% it wouldn't charge from the wall charger or battery charger.
Tried a lot of resetting, rebooting, but the battery just started dropping really fast each reset.
Plugged it in and tried the volume up/down, power button reset but all that did was a multiple resets and still wouldn't draw charge from anything.
In the end it just stopped responding to anything.
I would show a few orange flashes when I plug it to something and than stop.
Tried leaving it plugged in all night but nothing. Leaving it alone for 3 days also did nothing.
Then it stopped even showing the few orange blinks.
Current status:
Plugged it into computer usb and started showing orange flashes, decided to leave it plugged in.
Showed on screen the battery and 0% after a few min. Screen brightness increased after 20min.
Now its been 3h and its still only showing 0% for battery and flashing the orange light every few seconds, nothing else.
Will go to sleep now and leave it plugged in computer all night.

Have you tried a different USB cable & charger?
There have been numerous reports in these forums concerning charging issues with the device. If you've cleaned the USB port on the phone and have tried multiple USB cables and chargers, then most likely your battery is the culprit and needs to be replaced.

In a lot of cases they managed to restart the phone...
Yes I did that. Phone is still showing 0% battery after being plugged in computer usb, I find it funny how it wasn't responding at all to the wall chargers. Now for the question of the day, can I have the battery replaced without losing data? I asked a service center that kinda could be a HTC representative but cannot confirm it and they insisted that they have to do factory reset.

Can you charge the phone up and get the phone to boot to TWRP? If so you can mount your phone to your computer and back up all of your files on your internal storage to your computer.

I don't have TWRP but I just did manage to enter the stock recovery? and its just sitting there not really charging up but using 9V and 0.4A to stay powered up in that mode.
Can you tell me if I go to service center to get the battery changed will I lose all data by default of that process?

I wouldn't think that merely changing the battery would cause you to lose your data, or why they would do anything to your phone that would wipe your data from the phone.

Alright, that was my primary concern, thank you. The service sector where I live is pretty bad, and they do stupid stuff, follow stupid rules.
Update: I switched through a couple of chargers, and tried going into recovery after which I initiated a restart, phone booted normally and showed 24% battery, now is connected to original QC 3.0 ... and charging up, but stopped after 1%, I unplugged it and plugged it again and it continues to charge now with steady orange light? this is really nerve wrecking... what is the real issue? battery, charging port?
My goal is to try to charge 100% back up everything and then I can send it service.
