Hi guys, this morning my desire was vibrating like mad, it was plugged in charge overnight, the screen was off and it was constantly vibrating, so I took the battery out. When putting it back in the phone wouldn't turn on and when holding the power button constantly down it would vibrate again like mad :-$ any ideas?? Thanks
How often does it vibrate? Seven times? If yes, then your phone might be bricked.
SwiftKeyed from dGB with Transparent XDA App
Its a constant vibrate, I changed my battery and the phone switches on and works fine
Its just my other battery. Could this mean the battery got overcharged and is now damaged? Any tips?

Such information would have fitted perfectly in the initial post as well.. From OP there were no indication that your phone turned on at all.
But yes seems likely, and if it doesn't work then throw it out.
Funny enough i put that old battrery back in, and after a few presses of the power button, it switched on, i put it on charge, and currently it was showing 0% but charging, and its charging very slow now :-s could this mean something else? because the battery was on charge overnight. Would a battery calbiration sort this problem?
p.s the battery is only 2 months old, being a genuine htc innovation one, it shouldnt go that quick i assume.

Probably.. It most likely won't ruin you phone, so keep using it, if it still works.
ok that battery is not charging at all, stays at 0% while plugged in, and if i switch the phone off and let it charge, then after a few mins the fone starts constantly vibrating like mad, i went into recovery - advanced - wipe battery stats as well but its still doing it, should i assume it is the battery which is completely gone now?
With my 2nd battery its working fine as normal.
It must be the battery, time for the bin I think...

So I had this phone for a while now its starting to act up.
I pretty much killed the phone to 0-1% then plugged it in to charge and left it for 8 hours (sleeping), I wake up and find it only charged 3%, wow seriously? I fiddle around with it and it goes back to 0%?
Problem? Anyone had similar issue?
P.S I did search first, couldn't find any...

Are you using a custom recovery ?

It's probably a dead battery or hardware issue. I'd go to your seller and ask him what to do. Most likely you'll get a new device!
TIP: Try to charge it through your USB-port in your laptop/pc, perhaps the power supply is damaged?
I've had this problem. It's not really a problem, and it's easy to solve.
Find a different charger, like an iphone charger (worked for me) but other chargers than the HTC One will work :-D
Sent from my HTC One X using XDA
Its completely turned off now, im charging it but the red light just keeps flashing on an off, gonna leave it in for 1-2 hours and see how it is.
Okay, I left it for around 1 hour but the red light has stop flashing, problem?
Anyone? I tried another charger like the iPhone but same result... HELP!
Have you tried holding the power button down for 10 seconds, it equivalent to a battery pull, and then see if it will charge.
John.
are u using custom recovery?
Now, the CWM Recovery has a bug that the phone cannot be charged when power off
I've faced your situation, I got into bootloader, flash back the official recovery first through bootloader, try your phone can be charged when power off

I can't turn the thing on but I connected the usb via to the computer and the notification is blinking red, I assume its charging, the thing is yesterday I unlocked the bootloader (was at 95%), rooted it etc then started playing with it until it reached 1% and left it to charge overnight but it only went to 3% :/
Hopefully it charges fully after 8 hour of leaving it plugged in to computer while I go to work.
I would not leave you phone charging unattended, as lin-ion battery sometimes vent flames, when they are faulty and you don't want your house burning down.

Hmmm, I might bring it to work, but I can't get it swapped due to bootloader, fml.

thanks a lot for ur prompt reply dude... ya will try that surely.. but any idea y this is caused? could it be a battery caliberating issue or battery itself gone.. ?
May i answer to this? @karthik_sa2 : I had the same problem about 1 month ago.
This is what happened to me.
I plugged the phone to an ac charger, leaving it on.I think i may have left open some battery hungry apps like a game, and the ac charger could not deliver enough power to the phone.The battery continued to discharge untill 0, but the phone remained on for a reason.After 3-4 minutes, the battery reached a critical level and the phone shut down.
I left the phone plugged to an wall charger for about 1 and a half days.Then i was able to start the phone in bootloader.Happy ending!

No, my led was dead.
After 1,5 days , it charged 3%.At least this is the info the ROM was telling me .
Don't worry about the led, just leave the phone charging for 1-2 days.Then try oppening it on bootloader.

I read this post somewhere and it perfectly worked for me...thanks for all the help again..
"Be paitient, Plug your phone in and give it a minimum of 20 mins charge even though it's flashing.
Unplug the phone and hold both the VOL up and VOL down buttons together for at least 2 mins then release.
Plug the phone back in.. don't worry if it's starts flashing again just be paitent it will I guarantee stop flashing a red led and begin charging to show a constant red led..
By holding thew vol up and vol down buttons you will reset the charging circuit..
The reason your phone has started flashing is because it's gone too far into a discharge...
JUST DON'T PANIC and stay calm.. show a little paitence and all will be well...." :victory:
God here comes another problem.. After i brought the HOX live initially i charged while phone was switched off to 44%..Then i could not charge it from ac adapter both while switched off or on. when its on the charging indicator seems to show charging but even after hours the charge remains the same infact goes down...any help pls?? i thoughht i was on stock but now am confused..am pretty new to HOX forum..so not sure of anything about custom ROMS.. when i boot it says HTC ONE..ANDROID VERSION: 4.1.1 , SENSE VERSION :4+, KERNEL : 3.1.10 gd21b8f8 [email protected]#1

Hey everyone. I have huge problem with my Galaxy Nexus i9250 for few days now.
Let me start from beggining.
First it was showing charging symbol even if it ain't plugged in. Then it stopped after I cleaned charging port.
Few weeks back there were great floods in my region (Bosnia) and we were in lack of electricity so I started to charge it on a car charger and after it's completely charged (2h) as soon as I start to use it the battery goes off really fast, example, if I use it for let's say calls or even on "stand by" after 30mins the battery goes for like 40%. That's when problems started to begin. If it was turned off becuase of lack of battery I had to turn it on by pressing "Down volume + power" for first 2 times. Then I had to remove battery for few seconds then put it back not completely but I had to press the battery against those 4 pins which conduct electricity to a cell phone and press those two buttons for like 30 seconds to turn it on. Few days ago, I had same problem, but this time it wasnt empty on battery, it was in my pocked with almost 50% of battery when I took it and I saw it was off. Tried again that same proccedure, it turned on, showed recovery menu and it turned off. Ever since I can't turn it on, it charges, but it doesn't show charging indicator on my screen. When I put my battery in other phone it shows it's fully charged. I can't turn it on, my PC won't reconize it, let's say it's dead. I don't know what's happening, so I'm asking here if anyone knows what to do. Thanks to all.
sounds like a battery + charger issue

You must verify the voltage output of the car adapter you were using with the phone , remember that the fact it has a micro USB does not mean its designed to the specs of your phone, sounds like the battery went berserk after it was charged with that car adapter ... you should not tinker more with the phone and get a new battery and the original charger for it , if you can or are able to ...

Thank you Frank. I already tought nobody will reply to this. So you think if I buy new battery and charger cell phone will start to work?
Car charger was combined, USB cable from Nokia and car adapter is for let's say every cell phone. I have original Samsung Nexus wall charger I got with that cell phone and it charges the battery it just wont turn on the phone. Either PC doesnt want to reconize it, tried with Device Manager to see if is there anything but no. Thank you again for your reply.
Still no luck! Does anyone have something to suggest?
Hmmmm .... still would go for battery malfunction !

you say it charges the battery ? if you are able to see the white icon of the battery charging when the phone is off and you connect the charger , then it's definitely the phone battery .... replace it and lets hope it works out

No, I'm unable to see battery charging indicator. But when I lick the battery you can feel the electricity. Yea, it's stupid method but it does the job. And when I put it in another phone it says it's almost full 99% to be exact. So battery... Gonna buy a new one.

Alright, i have been sailing in the same boat, my i9250 has not been charging for quite some time.
Now for all most few months the phone is charging without any problem. I suspect the Google Search application could be the reason. I uninstalled all the Google Search application update and kept it to the one come by default. Since then i am able to charge my phone without any problem. The Google search version that i have is V 2.2.9.542574.
Try it out. All the best!!
Hi
My phone has recently developed a fault. As mentioned above when I use the camera the phone shuts down as soon as I take a photo. If i do the same with the charging cable connected the camera works ok.
This happens even with the battery at a high level of charge. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how was it solved.
I should mention the phone is stock 4.4.4 htc sense 6.0 Software No 3.33.61.9. Api level 6.25
Thanks

I thought I would carry out a test to see if it is a battery problem so I fully charged the phone to 100% then just left it all day. Switched on and the screen saver on.
So 10am fully charged. 7:55 pm checked phone and it had shut down and would not turn back on. When I plugged in a charger the screen lit up with the charging battery symbol and showing 23%.
Imthink a phone should last more than 12 hours when not in use. Or am I wrong.

go into settings / apps / Camera and clear the data / cache
I had this problem with the OneX I tried what @CiSa suggested it worked for one picture then it did the same as you described I had to take it back to my network provider I bought it from. Hope clearing the data cache works for you of it dosnt you will have to send it back to where you got it from
I think this may be a general battery problem and not just related to the battery.
The phone is now just shutting down when the battery gets below 45%
I'm not sure if I have caused this because I put the phone on charge every night regardless of charge level and leave it on charge all night. .

That's how I charge my phone, every afternoon when i get home from work and again overnight when i go to bed ... never had a battery issue
Have you tried a hardware battery recalibration?
The battery calibration starts with the phone completely off. The steps are as follows: Charge the device for at least 10 minutes using the original charging cable in a wall outlet. With the device powered off while still plugged into the wall outlet, press and hold the volume up, volume down and power button for two full minutes. Use three fingers to hold these buttons and do not let go at any time. They will be held in at the same time for this to work. After two minutes, you can let go. At this point, the device should boot up and battery/charging logic will be re-calibrated.

I have also charged my phone to 100%, then booted to recovery and charged it to 100%, the shut the phone down completely and let it charge ti ll the green light comes on 100%. you'll be surprised how the 3 different modes read the battery differently
Also the only time I had the camera shut down the phone I just cleared the DATA it fixed it
Thanks for all your suggestions. I tried the hardware battery recalibration but the phone just kept switching on.
Anyway whilst trying to do this I noticed the screen has lifted about millimetre at the bottom right hand corner. Wild this cause the battery to discharge.
I am having the same issue with my HTC One m8 eye the phone just shutdown with I take a picture in lie light with the flash I tried restoring the phone but only works for a short time so old help
