Hey guys!! I have little bit of a problem.. I woke up one morning my phone being on the charger. When taking off the charger my phone was totally frozen soo I pulled the battery, went to turn back on I get nothing at all. Cant get into recovery or anything. Plug charger in I get nothing, plug into computer it doesnt notice its there. Am I missing something here? About a week before this had happend my phone was having issues with charging tho. Do I need a new battery? Anyways I could use some help please and thank you. Also I was rooted..
This happened to me before I just pulled the battery for like 15 minutes and it powered on when i connected it to the charger.
Yea I did that but when I plug into the charger it doesnt respond at all. No flashing battery sign nothing..

My HTC TP2 Battery went dead today. When I got it home I plugged it in and assumed it was charging..
Here's what was really happening.
It charges just enough to boot .. attempts to boot and doesnt have a charge enough to boot all the way up.. Shuts off then charges enough to boot.. Etc..
Then it repeats the same process OVER AND OVER AND OVER
I cannot figure out any way to get this thing to just charge. I have tried for hours now.
Charger is fine but keeps doing the process above..
If any one could help I would appreciate it. I cannot take it back as it has a cooked rom and it has to be charged to change the rom.. I have Absolutely NO friends with the TP2. Am I stuck?

Is the phone off when you're trying to charge it? Off, not in standby.
When it's plugged in and should be charging, is the light on the left side of the ear-speaker orange? Or is that the deal -- it's orange, indicating charging, but actually isn't charging?
How do you know the charger is fine ?
Open your battery cover, .. remove the battery, put the battery again, .. and charge it, .. do NOT turn it ON yet. let it charge for some time, . .and when it is completely charged, .. turn ON the device

This also worked for me. Mine went dead during a conference call. I was surprised to see that the TP2 appears to use more power with WiFi connected and in a call than the charger can provide.
I had flashed Caulkin's_format_all.zip and I managed to accidentally reboot my phone before flashing a rom or anything. The phone will not power on, and if I plug it in, the charge indicator will not turn on. I've already tried pulling the batt for 5 minutes with no luck. any suggestions?
I did this once by being too quick at pushing the power button , I was able to reboot into recovery by pushing volume down and power button and then install a backup or you could flash rom. Hope this helps.
problem is, I can't even get it to boot, be it normal boot or bootloader.
If you hook it up to the computer, is it recognized?
Your going to have to borrow someones battery. I've seen people with this problem and for some reason, your phone won't recognize your battery and since it won't it won't charge it. Trust me, stick in a different battery and you will boot right up.
I've tried using my sprint extended life batt and the stock htc batt. neither worked.
and pc won't even recognize it.

So 100% sure that both batteries you've tried have a charge on them? And still no led when plugged in, to computer or wall? That sucks, because it sounds like it got bricked, somehow. I have also accidentally booted after flashing calk's format all from hitting the power button too quick, and as the other guy said, I was able to get to the bootloader by voldown+power, and restore a nandroid. I don't know what went differently in your case, but if you're positive that the batteries you've tried are good and charged, and you get no power led plugged into the wall, then it does sound like you somehow got a brick? Did you try leaving it plugged in for some time? A couple hours maybe, just to see if the led comes on?
Also make sure you are using a wall charger, I know if my battery charge is too low or dead the usb on my computer won't work, I then have to use the wall charger. The led will flash at first before starting to charge. When led is flashing phone won't turn on.
Edit:I just saw wall charging mentioned in previous post. I guess it shows the importance of it
I haven't tried leaving it plugged in. doing that now.
so I took it into the sprint store today and even the techs couldnt figure it out. I've got a replacement on the way. thanks for your suggestions guys!

Well i guess that may be a way of doing it. Completely break the phone if something goes wrong during root
hmmm.... weird.... your phone decided it had enough flashing apparently
First ive seen of a phone completely bricked that wasn't during a radio update.
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!
my desire hd started shownig problems with charging a few days ago when i plugged it in. The orange light was on and i left it for charging as i usually did but when i came back to it after an hour the battery level was even lower than before i charged it.... i took the battery out rebooted the phone tried again but still the same thing... then i moved the connector a bit and stood by the phone,,, the battery started charging... but yesterday i tried everything but couldnt get it to charge... tried a different battery and cable but still it showed the orange light though it wasnt charging... and soon it was out of battery and shut down... now it wont charge and boot up... ive tried cleaning the port but that didnt helped either... im really frustrated by this behaviour... if any one have had experience with such type of thing please help me...
I'm guessing: tried to wipe the battery statistics ClockworkMod?
Guys, i need your help. My phone suddenly died when i was charging it. Tried in the charger and was able to switch on, bat perctage is still showing as 30%. wHen i removed the charger it died again repeat the same thing and was stock in samsung logo. Was able to read one forum and owner experienced the same thing. What he did was used a diff bat. Tried it and it worked, so i purchased a msn hk replacement bat, however when i tried to switch the phone off while charger was plugged, it didnt work. No red led light, bat percentage dis not increase, no bat cahrging logo, so obviously it was not charging.i Inserted usb charger again and tried to switch off the phone but it just restarted. So the big problem is, every time that the bat is fully drained, i cant charge it using a usb charger, i need to use a universal charger 1st to boot the bat a bit then palce it back again so i can switch on the phone then use the usb wall charger. to ssummarize the problem, Phone Is charging as long as it is switched on but wont charge if its off and wont shut off while charging. Any one experienced the same thing? Is this due to the replacement bat? Need ur help guys, thanks
Up guys
