Re: My PDA2K Died
Rip:
Was working like a champ had to replace the battery about 3 weeks ago and then today about mid day it died no apparrent reason.
I went to turn the display o to get some information like I did how many times since October of 2004 and that was it.
I tried to charge it and the only thing happens that the yellow light is now the Color Red and it charges and does not turn on.
Has anyone ever had this happen?
I should get it fixed I wonder what it would cost? I'm in the USA and where would I send it? I sent Pocket PC Techs an Email and they never responded, I guess these guys don't want fix it.
I had a similar problem once where the phone was on charge the red light would stay on for a long time, then the phone would boot up for a second before going back to red.
I thought it was the battery so I brought a new extended one, that worked. But when I put the old battery on charge through the O2 XDA IIs cradle NOT phone. The battery sprang back to life. In fact I am still using the OLD battery
It seems the phone acts all weird when the batteries get severely drained, I'd try charging the battery on the cradle through the mains adapter without the phone, then put it in the phone with the mains adapter plugged in.
Or it may be caused by bad battery
I was using my EVO (rooted to Warm ROM) as a GPS today driving down to NYC. The battery wasn't completely dead yet and I was using a car charger to the phone. All of a sudden, the phone just reset! I had no clue why. I used my brother's EVO for GPS and after a little while, his started to reset as well! Has this happened to anyone else with the EVO resetting for no reason after using a car charger? Even after it was shut off, I kept it plugged in and it wouldn't charge (no amber led light). When I got home, it wouldn't charge with the wall charger either. I only solved it by directly charging the battery with a cradle charger for a few minutes to give it some juice and then the phone turned on and i was able to charge it. I was just wondering why this happened and how to prevent it?
I'm wondering if it was the car charger or the car's port or w/e but i don't think the port had a problem cuz i used an actual GPS unit and plugged it and it charged fine...
what i think happened to you was your battery overheat, which will cause the phone to reboot, some rom and kernel combinations will get hot when using nav app or 4g specially while charging, and once your battery get hot enough it wont charge its a fail safe, sometime they get damaged too
Today I ran my 360 out of power and it would not start charging again. It was tottally dead.
After several hours I noticed the charge lamp on the dock never lit up at all.
To kickstart the charger I held my Nexus 5 to it so it lit up and started charging my phone.
While charging I swapped fawst between the phone and my 360 and it started charging immideatly and continued charging up to booting and the kept charging back up to full.
it would probably work with another QI charger as well as it seems the problem is in the charger not being able to start charging from dead.
I've run mine completely dead several times and it always charges back up on its own.
I had the same issue and had already started a RMA at my online store where I bought it.
Thankfully I had ordered an universal Qi spare charger and when I got it the next day before I returned my original charger I tried it and the watch started to charge with the spare one.
Since then I never had any issues with both, the original and the spare charger.
Wired, but I think it’s more a problem of the watch itself and that it sometimes could happen that it does not properly recognize or handle the data to initiate the charging process.
In my case it worked with a (cheap) Universal Charger with probably locked charging values and in your case with your nexus phone to get the original charger to force charging the watch till it had enough power to handle the process itself.
That’s my idea; correct me if I'm wrong.
Hey guys,
My HTC One M8 stopped charging normally a few weeks ago. I had it plugged in to charge one night, and suddenly I started to smell burning plastic, and the bottom of my phone was very warm. Sure enough, when I unplugged the charger it was all discolored and the metal part was scalding hot. Obviously my first suspicion was my charger, so I stopped using it and tried several others, and that's where my charging troubles started.
Now whenever I have it plugged in (no matter what charger I use), it says it's charging (i.e. the orange LED light is on and the battery icon in the status bar has the charging animation), but it will either not charge at all and actually lose percentage, or it will charge VERY slowly...as in 1% per 10-15 minutes. I'll plug it in before bed and when I wake up, it will have only charged 30-40%.
So obviously the charger isn't the problem, it's either the charging port or the battery itself. I doubt it's the battery though, because once the phone is unplugged and I'm using it during the day, the battery life is fine and there are no issues. I'm almost certain it's the port, so I'm probably going to open my phone up and try to replace it...but I want some opinions first. Does this sound like a charging port issue or a battery issue? I want to make sure before I go trying to replace parts
No clue, you answered the questions yourself already.
Good luck in getting it fixed !
I plugged in my Zuk Z2(plus) into a charger yesterday happened to be a fast charger QC and within about 10 minutes it went up in smoke charger seems fine (cable melted) but the phone now only shows the ZUK logo and switches off,
Doesn't seem to charge either just vibrates, from the looks the charging ports a bit melted, Was lucky it didn't properly catch fire,
Anyhow to the question, I can get to (stock) recovery and I imagine I'll need a new charging port, but anyone know if the motherboard is likely fried too or would I get away with a new charging port on it ? (and obviously never charge with a QC again) .
I had the same thing happen to me. I was charging my ZUK in another room using a Quick Charge 3.0 charger. I went to check on it. There was smoke coming from the charging port (which was scorching hot) and a horrible electrical smell. Phone wouldn't turn on. From what I remember it was just a white LED when pressing the power button, maybe the vibration too. I tried to charge but it wouldn't do anything. Couldn't boot to EDL mode. I thought it was dead.
A few days later, I remember plugging the phone into my laptop (in another attempt to diagnose the problem) and at some point I got distracted and left it plugged in. After about 30 minutes I was suprised to see that it randomly powered on by itself and came back to life. I believe I still had trouble getting it to charge, and that the battery percentage was stuck on 0% when when plugged into the mains. But eventually it all just fixed itself and I have been using the phone for another 2 years without issue. Guess I got lucky.
Sadly it sounds like your phone is a little more damaged that what mine was. I did not have any visible damage, it was just a bad electrical smell that remained for a few weeks or months. I have heard from other people who had this problem and I believe there is a little component on the motherboard that overheats and burns out when trying to use a Quick Charge mains charger. But the phone works fine without it. I know the charging port is fastened to the motherboard so it would probably require soldering.
Example of replacement - Try looking on other sites like AliExpress: https://www.maxbhi.com/charging-connector-for-lenovo-z2-plus-32gb-zuk-z2.html
Don't I remember people hacking "the fast charging chip" off the board to fix this problem? Literally prying the chip off and it sorting this issue out and allegedly the phone working well. Try a search for something like that.
I know this was a common fault with fast chargers killing the phone.
