Help! HTC One M8 slow charging - One (M8) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I left it charging all night (from 1 am to 10 am), it was turned off and it only charged to 47% on 9 hours, it had like 10% when I turned it off to charge it. Now it is at 80% after 3 more hours, and it says it still has 2 hours left to be fully charged. What could be the problem? I've been having this problem since friday.
-I am running android 6.0
-My pc recognizes the phone without any problem
-I have no battery draining issues because once the battery fully charges, battery life is normal
-I am using the original htc charger that came with the phone.

Did you perform a full wipe before flashing the rom? You're not the only one facing issues after dirty flashing a 6.0 rom to a 5.x based device.

I'd say it's a faulty cable......

It's the official update, I didn't flash any rom.

I tried with my PS4 cable and it's still slow. Do you think it could be the wall adapter? (I don't know if that is the exact name)

All options are open. Things to try/or take in consideration :
1: factory reset
2: change adapter
3: possibility of a hardware issue

I have the same problem as you. It seems to be a problem with the version of clockworkmod recovery...
So update it and we will see it that solves the problem. I've just done it.
I've had a similar problem where it charges to 92% and never reaches 100%, although by chance one day my phone froze and rebooted. When it booted again it was 100%. I think it could be a glitch with the battery indicator, because it goes to 100% every time I reboot (from having just taken it off the charger) even if it wasn't at 100% before..

[Q] Almost bricked One X

Hi,
Yesterday i flashed the wrong ROM on my Onex and now i've got some issues i can't seem to resolve.
The Rom i installed was for the Tegra3 Onex and i've got the international version, so yeah, kinda stupid i know.
Some facts:
-Hboot 1.12.0000
-Bootloader is unlocked
-Clockworkmod is installed
-Made a nandroid backup
-Got a fastboot folder
-The ROM i installed was Cyanogenmod 10
At first i didn't notice it was the wrong ROM but it drained my battery pretty fast and WiFi/SD-card/Network/etc. isn't working.
The phone hardly charges (only up to 3% or something) and when i go in recovery and restore the backup i made, it's going into bootloop.
I can't find a way to install another custom or stock ROM on the SD-card since my pc isn't recognizing the device as a storage.
I can however communicate via cmd, but when i try to flash another boot.img on it, it says power too low.
Any idea on how i can get it charged?
Any idea on how to get it working again? (w or w/o stock rom)
Thnx a lot in advance
Switch off the phone and charge it for 1hr
Allready tried that but it won't go beyond 2/3%
Tried charging it while plugged in to the laptop and while plugged into the net.
Yesterday i left it charing for a few hours while it was turned on, but when i got back to it, it was turned off.
The tegra3 one x IS the international one x.

What XX said. The international One X is the Tegra 3. Did you flash the boot.img prior to flashing CM10?
@XxVcVxX Hmm, my bad about the International version... had a short night, thought i figured it out...
@dr9722 Yes, i flashed the boot.img and followed the guide exactly. The ROM does work, but somehow it doesn't recognize the SD-card, WiFi doesn't work and network doesn't work either. And on top of that, it still doesn't really charge and stays at about 3% when i charge it on standby for an hour.
Any suggestions on how i can get another ROM (zip-file) on the SD-card (perhaps somewhere in the settings?) so i can replace the current one?
Does the Rom actually boot into a usable user interface?

Thats what I thought.
Yes, the ROM does actually work, it's got apps installed and everything else seems to run pretty smooth. Developer options can be enabled and everything works.
Except the most important parts don't work... unfortunately exactly the parts that make it a phone!

It charges up to 3% but drains in 2 minutes when i turn on the phone.

well, this is probably an HW problem... if your phone boots up and can't charge, well that's weird... try erasing battery stat in recovery

Ok, it's charged up to 13% now after being turned off for about 45 minutes. I had it still plugged into the laptop but as soon as i turned it on (screen on minimum brightness) it drains the battery extremely fast.

Yeah, allready tried to erase that. But this happened after i installed the new ROM.
Other problem is that when it is on, it doesn't recognize the SD-card so i can't put any other ROM on it, stock or custom.

did you try what i wrote above?
Ok, it went down from 13% to 2% when i powered it down. Figured if i turned it off, it wouldn't consume any energy, but appearantly that isn't the case.

how can it drain battery with power off? Try to leave it charged for a whole day. You can mount your sd card from recovery fyi.

I tried to mount the SDcard, but it still isn't recognized when i run the ROM.
I can't seem to install USB Mass Storage, which might be the problem.

[Q] Phone won't charge nor Fastboot / Flashmode

Hey everyone,
after dropping my S3 two days ago which lead to a highly damaged screen (not working anymore) like two days ago, I got a new Arc S from a friend. As I said, the phone is new, and unused.
I've been trying to update to Android 4.3 yesterday, followed some tutorials I found here. I installed the Dark Kernel trough fastboot, then tried to flash the Dark JB rom. But nevermind, this didn't work, so I decided to flash back to stock kernel + rom.
I succeded in doing this, but had the, as I see, common 100% battery problem. Didn't think about one thing. The phone won't charge when the battery is on 100%. So my battery went empty, but whenever I want to charge it, it doesn't because the phone kinda thinks it is on 100%.
Now, I wanted to wipe the battery cache, which isn't possible because I cannot load fastboot mode, and what I've been trying aswell, cannot load flashmode neither.
I don't know what to do to be honest, I hope some of you guys can help me out!
regards
The battery issue can usually be solved by flashing new kernel(s), then returning to the original one.
If you have another Arc (S) available, charge the battery there, then put the battery back and then try to connect. Phone can not be detected due to no power at that moment.

At first, I'm sorry for those awful grammar mistakes I made in my first post
I do not have another SE mobile available to be honest, but I understood what you mean. Thanks for answering me this fast.
I charged the phone for like an hour when it was turned of completely, so now it is up again (idk for how long). Trying to enter fastboot now.

Weird charging issues

Ever since upgrading to newest firmware using HTC fastboot (even after ruu back to stock) I have been having the weirdest charging issues. These issues occur when on qc 2.0, standard 2.0, or even standard HTC charger, different cables... Well basically my phone is not overheated right now but plugged into the wall and is not charging. I plugged it in last night everything was fine. Woke up today to 50% battery. I tried unplugging, tried powering off then plugging back in, tried booting to recovery plugging in, restarting phone, changing cords, changing power adapter... Just randomly does not want to charge then after a handle full of times just decides it wants to charge. This has happened over the course of this week and is just driving me crazy. I am s off. Rooted. Custom twrp recovery 2.8.7.0. On viper one 3.0. But this issue is persistent even when in the powered off state... I have no idea wtf could be causing this issue. Only thing I can think of is firmware or something. I don't get it. Anyone have any issues similar? Or fix? Only way is to cross my fingers and hope the connection starts a charge after a lot of plugging and unplugging. Please help thanks.

Sounds like a hardware issue not software. but not sure. just my 02. cents
If running the RUU for 1.33.605.15 doesn't solve your charging issue, my first thought would be hardware.
That said, HTC has definitely been having trouble with charging and battery issues, so we've gotta hope that the final release of 5.1 for us will resolve the problem. The currently leaked 2.6.605.10 is most likely not the version that will be released publicly.
After troubleshooting I think the charging was being stopped due to overheating while charging. In standby. Had a live wallpaper I think was causing the high Temps. Changed to normal wallpaper and disabled all but two cores and Temps have been cool and haven't had any charging issues since (fingers crossed as its only been one day lol)

Still doesn't explain off state not charging tho so idk I'll see after a few more days see if it happens again
O had a similar issue, where it would go from charging to not charging every couple of seconds. I have not had these issues with Fluent or Adrenaline. There's a post in the Adrenaline thread about how to calibrate your battery. Try that, also. FWIW, when I installed Viper after being on Fluent, and calibrated the battery, I haven't had any more issues.
I have the same problem since updating to 2.6.605.15. The phone was fine until the update rolled out. After several hours of troubleshooting with HTC I got a replacement from them and am now updating that one to see if the problem remains. What a PIA this is since it takes all day to set up your phone again when you get a replacement.

Why would it take all day?
Just restore your last backup to your new device with TWRP. :good:
Instantly back to where you were.
Please tell me how to do this.

TWRP = Team Win Recovery Project.
That's your recovery. You do make backups, don't you?
Plug your old device into a computer, copy and paste your latest backup to your computer.
Plug new device into computer, drop backup onto new device.
Boot new device into recovery and restore backup from your old device.
Now you are right where you left off.
Or...
Back up old device in TWRP to external SD card.
Move SD card to new device, boot to recovery, restore backup from external SD.
BOOM done.
Root?
Do you have to root the phone?

You need to have s-off and bootloader unlocked. Currently the only way to do this on Verizon is with a clip or a java card. There is a post in general about java cards with plenty of information. Currently there is no way to root without TWRP and thus you need s-off and the bootloader unlocked.

Phone not working after intalling ROM

Yo Guys.
I tried to install an EMUI 8 ROM on my EMUI 5.1 Honor 7x and now the screen wont turn back on.
The Phone is constantly in Fastboot mode when connected to PC and only the EMUI 5.1 Parts are flashable.
Through the MUltiTool i found out that the Battery-Voltage is at 0 constantly, which is probably the Reason for the screen.
I have the BND-L21 and tried to flash the System,Boot,Cust,Recovery.img from the FirmwareFinder and nothing changed.
Then i tried to flash the EMUI 8 parts, but i says Command not allowed, which probably means the PArtition isnt there.
The bootloader is unlocked and PC can find the device in Fastboot.
What can i do now?
Thanks

I think as long as battery is at zero flashing will allways fail.
Maybe if you had a second working phone , you could try to swap the batteries, at least long enough to try and flash the firmware

Maybe it's a software issue, and something is really messed up in the phone so that it can't even connect to the battery properly, resulting in the 0 voltage... if this is the case, then a battery replacement wouldn't do anything, instead, other parts have to be replaced, including the motherboard and whatnot iirc.

Yeah i just bought the screwdriver to open the smartphone and they will probably deliever on 15th.
But i think the batteryswap wont work, because i never had issues with the battery and never changed it, so it would be very random that it breaks at the same time as i flash the ROM.
The Software probably thinks it has emui 8 to work with but there is emui 5.1 on the phone, which i would accept that i doesnt work, but disconnecting the battery seems very odd.
One way it may work is to either somehow flash a 5.1 rom or emui 8 with fastboot, but i dont know how to do these things. (when the flashing works)

Well you cant create partitions with fastboot, so you cannot flash emui 8 rom with fastboot, if phone is / was running on emui 5
and "offline charging" is function from kernel. And as a side effect of your bad flashed rom, perhaps battery has drained and cannot charge. That is why the suggestion of swapping battery. Not because battery went bad, just that at this time is cannot charge.
