red light means extremely low batt.....guess your battery is faulty
i got the same thing.
and no it's not the battery.
it's the charging circuit on the main hardware isn't working.
open your phone and check the five small wires that they connect the mini usb to the main mother board, one of them must be cut.

so, is there a solution to this? or there really is nothing more for the device but the trash bin or for spare parts?
Have you tried this?

If you already replaced the battery and nothing, and you want to get rid of dear Uni place it for sell in parts on marketplace, a lot of people will go for it!

I had exactly the same thing with my old battery,after my try to discharge it with a lil electro-motor. then i found a post of a guy with the same thing,who fixed it-by "zapping" the UNI battery with a 9V battery,connecting + to + and - to -,for a few second. I tried it without thinking twice. It worked for me. Dunno how and why,but it did. I use the battery again,normal. But beware,it is dangerous to play with this type of battery,it can explode. Do a search on this subject and you will see
I agree with keeping_sg
how long have you left your uni on the charger?
just plug it in and leave it on the charger all night and see what happens.
I bought yesterday a 4800mAh battery from Hong Kong... 10 euros included shipping + FREE black back cover
Good battery life but still prefer to carry 2 original sized batts rather than get that big one, making even bigger our Uni
Respectfully,
Yes, that absolutely means your battery is dead. Try charging for a few more hours and then turn on your PocketPC. If the error persists, try changing the battery.

problem with new hicap battery

hi all
Just put in my hicap battery-2600mAh yesterday.
all attempts to charge it have failed however.
----------
the problem-
with new batt inserted, i plug in the charge cable
no charge light (orange), no low batt light (red)
once WM is booted, it shows that the status is Charging
but stays stuck at 0% even after an overnight charge.
Taking the charge cable out, the phone is ON for about 20 seconds,
then goes into Standby mode all by itself but does not actually switch OFF or run out of batt after n hour of mucking about on it
-----------
it does not look like a dead battery as it is actually able to hold some amount of charge
a faulty battery perhaps?
or is there a special way to charge brand new batteries?
or a workaround to the problem?
thanks.
suggestions anyone?
resco2007 said the following in another post:
I wanted to let you know that I have the same problem with mine too : xda2 s do not like mosot chargers that is what it is but I have found a way around it, this is what you do- switch off the phone and then take off your batt for a split second and then put it back on , now the phone is off , now you can charge it,
It works for me and a few others
=======
but unfortunately ive not been able to get my phone to charge that way.
there dont seem to be a way for me to switch the phone off completely in that, when the little notch is push back in, it immediately boots...

[Q] Wont Boot just Flashes a dim Blue pules in notification area

i fell asleep and forgot to plug my phone in the charger and i woke up to a dead phone and i figured the battery just died ,
so i plugged it in and nothing happend so i set it down and went to work , when i got home it was still dead and no sign of life so i plugged it in over night and when i woke up it now had a really dim blue light pulsing in the top right hand corner but wouldn't respond to anything ,
it wont boot normally , download mode or into recover mode and my PC wont read it at all but it will make that blue light pules when plugged in like it does when its plugged into the charger .
Does anyone have any ideas how to fix this myself WITHOUT going to sprint ?
Or is this a total brick ?
Any suggestions will help ...
Sounds like a battery thats been drained too bad. It doesn't sound bricked. I would get another battery from sprint or amazon. Flashing blue is battery drained beyond repair(in most cases, some have brought the battery back using an external charger as well as just letting it charge). Solid blue no flashing is a brick. :beer:
sent from MY BAD A$$ ET4G
i have one replacement batter i got off eBay that got the phone to fully boot and act normal then it did the same thing in a matter of hours , i don't know if the phone is doing this to the battery's or i just got a bad battery off eBay
this happens to me from time to time when i forget to charge it.messing with it n removing the battery a few times gets it back to normal for me though. maybe this is just a symptom of a bug that isnt well known yet

possible brick?

My friend gave me a lumia 900 that doesnt respond to any button combos/ or show a charging screen no matter what charger i use.. The phone is under warranty but i still would like to fix it rather than send it back to them.. It showed up once on my pc as nokia dload but i cant get it to do it again... i let the phone charge over night and when i took it off charge it still didnt respond and vibrated every second and a half.
Well i let it charge over night on my 700mah vharger and it boots to a white screen and shuts off now... Im gonna end up letting it charge on my brothers 1amp blackberry charger for a hour or 2. Any ideas if that will work. I think it has the battery drain brick....
Mine just did the same thing except my phone is 1 month past waranty...phone shut off when the battery was still half full...charged it over night...saw a white screen the next morning when i tried to turn it on then nothing...went to at&T today and they said i'm out of luck. Pretty poor i'd say.
well i got it to the point where the battery notification blinks when i plug it into the charger. where should i go from here. I honestly dont think the phones bricked. But i know nothing about windows phones
bump. I really dont feel like waiting for 2 weeks or more to get this phone back. Im trying to help my gf out and give it to her

Note 2 wont charge when its shut off

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
