[Q]Wlidfire S Battery charge indicator 2.3.5 upgrade problem

Battery charge indicator 2.3.5 upgrade problem
Hello everyone.This is my first time come to xda-developers form.I'm from china.
Yesterday I update my wildfire S(China mainland Edition)to 2.3.5+Sense3.0 lockscreen(Taiwan Edition)'s ROM.
I charge my bbttery yesterday evening.I turn off my phone.
When charge compalate.I found that the LED light didn't change green.It was still orange.
Why?How to solve it?
PS:Maybe my post have some Grammar problem。I hope that you can Bear with it.

Try factory reset see if it helps.
Backup important information and personal stuff first.

Just try the procedure of taking the battery out, sim card, micro sd etc etc and see if that works...

are you using the stock battery?
i used to notice with my (so called) extended battery 2430mah Gold battery, the software would say it was 100% charge, but it stayed orange for around another hour or two, then eventually turned green...i assume this is because the phone software had misjudged the charge level...so although it THOUGHT it was 100% full, it was actually still charging?
so if you have changed the battery at all, leave it charging for a bit longer (only an hour or so) and see if it goes out?
should be safe, as the batteries themselves usually have an auto shut off safety to stop them from being over-charged.

I get the exact same on ALL custom ROMs, never on Stock though, would love a fix!

Since I unlocked my phone's bootloader, rooted and installed custom recovery I have the same problem too.
If I charge the battery with the phone turned on, the led turns green at 100% and everything is fine.
If I charge the battery with the phone off, the led stays orange forever even when I disconnect the charger. Then I have to remove the battery and insert it again so that the led turns off. If I wait enough time charging the battery reaches 100%.
This is a strange sympton that only started with the rooting/recovery flashing process.
Oh and BTW the way, I use stock battery but now I'm waiting for the arrival of two batteries I ordered on eBay.
One is a Li-Ion 1500 mAh and the other a Li-Polymer 2430 mAh.
Will see if the same happens when they arrive but I'm almost 100% sure this has something to do with the bootloader unlocking process.
Does anybody know how to fix this? I would really appreciate it.

I for example left my phone charging for 8 hours (during the night) beyond the normal charge time. And the worst is that I have to remove the battery in order to turn off the orange led and be able to turn on my phone...

Hi
have you try to wipe battery stats in recovery mode?
perhaps this will help, although I had not previously encountered a similar problem

Same as, pain in the arse!

Great news! At least on my phone this problem is gone.
You wonder how? Simply by updating recovery to v5.0.2.8 from ROM Manager.
I almost didn't notice it it but a few hours ago I plugged my phone to the charger while still on. After finishing my work I turned it off (no fastboot).
In the meanwhile I needed to use my phone far from the wall plug and disconnected the usb charger cable.
My gesture was to immediately remove back cover to remove the battery but fortunately I noticed the orange led went off.
So I decided to plug it again and wait for the charge to complete and for the green led. It did!
So run to the Market, download ROM Manager and let it update your recovery to the latest version.
I hope this annoying pest won't bother you no more.

thanks, i will definitely try this, ive been having a hard time looking on ways how to solve this problem.. also can i now do battery calibration steps after that?
cause im having battery drain issue on my WFS after flashing of ROM, im not getting 4.219V my only maximum was 4.196V. And yesterday i tried charging my phone in OFF state for 7.5hours and when i open it 100% at 4.077V, and now 87% just after 15mins of use..

First of all reset the phone . Am sure that will help.

[Q] Stuck at 0%, won't increase even if charging

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...

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.

That tip about plugging it into my laptop absolutely worked! I was panicking for a bit because my phone was stuck at the 0% boot screen and I thought it was bricked. But I followed this tip and it instantly started charging. Thank so much

[Q] Flashed ROM, worked perfectly, won't turn on now

So I ended up flashing CM12 located in one of the other threads to play around with 5.0. It worked perfectly, no problems to be found or anything. However at one point, I went to grab it and play a game, the screen refused to turn on. I tried the Power + Vol. up trick and it still didn't do anything. Concerned (as I was toying around with a resolution app to pump it to 1600x900 res) I continued to try to force reboot it, and tried the Power + Vol. down trick to get into recovery. I plugged it into my computer to see if I can use ADB to force it to reboot and I get an error: no device found. So now I'm stuck waiting for the power to drain completely but it's been close to 24 hours and it still doesnt work. However my computer dings immediately as soon as I plug it in so it sounds like it's still alive (however there's no charging light on). How boned am I? Anything else I can try?

I think there are 2 other cases exactly like yours, that makes me not want to use CM12.
Wait for the device to die, then try if adb recognizes it, or if you can get into recovery.

ok, I'll continue waiting, thanks for the info. I'll go ahead and flash CM11 and use that for awhile until HTC pushes their 5.0 out or if problems are fixed. Hopefully it won't take too much longer for the device to die...

2 days later, nothing, opened it up and removed the battery (was surprisingly a joke to do it too), plugged it back in, again nothing, plugged it into PC and the usual ding can be heard from the PC (But no charging light). Guess it's dead. If anyone else figures anything out, feel free to lemme know, back to the old broken screen Reverb for now.

Unplug the battery, and then plug the phone into the charger with the battery out. Then after 10-15 minutes, plug the battery back in without unplugging the phone. Then just let the phone charge for a few hours. That has worked for me on other phones several times.

Unfortunately it didn't work, literally nothing changed. Slight ringing noise from under the heatsink though when plugged in. Guessing it's fubar?

If theres still no charging lite? Possibly. You could try to charge the battery with a split charger. However thats last resort and can break your battery if it doesn't work.

Or you could use your manufacturers warranty and send that baby back in for a fresh one. Claim a defect... Why? Because it is a defect. If you can't get it to boot with adb / rooted methods then their stock methods won't work nor detect anything. Besides, the worse they'll do is send your phone back the same way it got to them.
Also, if the others who ran into this issue could give feedback on if they modified screen resolution before the device kicked on CM12 that would be most informative.

a bit of a necro, but a headup/final question.
Amazon gave me a full refund (took awhile) and getting a new Desire. However I'm wondering if anyone else has encountered this issue? I REALLY want to keep using Android 5.0 but I'm slightly worried about if it was just bad luck with 5.0, an actual issue with 5.0, or me screwing it up myself with changing my resolution (I don't think I even touched my DPI)(Virgin Mobile US Desire 816).

A ROM can't fry your phone like this, so you have nothing to worry about. The issue with your last phone wasn't because of CM12.

So either I screwed something up or it was a screwed up phone in the first place (I'm inclined to believe this as it was frequently getting into a locked state where I'd have to force reboot it via the vol/power buttons). Guess I'll go for it, thanks!

Phone won't charge, also I think it tries to turn on by itself

Hello!
My phone suddenly stopped charging... and now it is dead... now... like every 3 or 5 minutes, it vibrates by itself, even if unplugged... Anyone heard of this issue?
More info in my last post:
I'm unlocked, rooted, xposed, installed Beanstalk ROM, etc... But I did that months ago (I don't know, 6 months ago?) and it has been working flaglessly, I didnt do ANY change prior to this problem (really, no changes, not even a new appp installed or removed in months)
So I really think it is something in the usb charger.... Maybe I'm wrong and it got bricked somehow... please validate that.
Also, it still vibrating at least once every five minutes. (I woke up all night with it vibrating and now it is on my desk and it still does it)
I just tried an adb wait-for-devices and nothing happens, also tried to reboot it the same way and nothing happens.
Now, I remember that I did something before the phone turned off (battery ran off) I deactivated an Xposed module (latalysm or somethign like that) and didn't reboot it to complete the deactivation. Maybe it has something to do with 0% battery and that?
I really don't think so... But your advice is really welcome.
Thank you in advance.

Did you rooted or unlocked?

New data:
When I pluggin the phone to the PC, the PC plays the "hardware detection sound" but then it disconnects too. Maybe it has something to do with the battery or something related?
Thank you in advance, phone is still dead.

Well... my phone is now even more dead... I think the problem is the battery, even if I try to charge it doesn't even get warm, I replaced the usb piece of the phone expecting that it was something with that but no... Now I'm waiting to get a replacement battery.
Anyone heard of the same issue? I've found many people having the same issue, but most of them solved the problem unplugging the battery and then plugging it back again.
Please help!

Yes I tried that 2 months ago... But yesterday... I arrived home and tried to charge again, waited about 2 hours, turned it in and pop... I have the phone again (I keep losing phone and data signal, but... come on, it is on now)... So I don't know... I heard many times that pluging in and off the battery and "waiting" seemed to work for a lot of people, but come on... 2 months?

That is a lot... I waited 2 months... sorry I don't know anything about the matter... but don't lose faith, maybe it will turn on again someday.... Advice, charge it and leave it charging for... a week? then try again.

I've decided to fiddle with a needle inside the USB charging port recently. After that my phone suddenly was recognised by the computer and started charging and working. After I connect it to the real charger, doesn't matter if it's original or not, it stops working and doesn't even charge from the PC. Then I have to fiddle inside the charging port and everything works again... wtf really? what can be dead?

I'm not so sure... It sound's more like I'm either grounding some contacts or I'm somehow short circuiting something. Maybe it could be a broken capacitor or something? That would explain why your phone started working after 2 month.
Well in any case it would be interesting íf somebody with that issue would try touching the contacts in the USB port with metal needle and connect the phone to the PC.
I've ordered a new USB thingy already and going to swap it soon, I'll keep you updated.

I have try to change the battery and the usb port. The battery work one time but won't charge. Can't say if it is the same issue or because is is a cheap battery

(SOLVED) Pixel 2 XL charging stuck at 99% all of a sudden

My 2 XL is only a month old. There is no complain about charging before. It was normal. Hit 100% everytime. Until several days ago, I woke up in the morning and my phone does stuck at 99% with charging rapidly status. I've tried to drain the battery and fully charge, try to flash factory image, but the problem still exist. The phone does charge normally to 90%, then getting slow and more slow when hit 95%, it takes very long time to get to 99, then it stuck for hours. I'm using app called AccuBattery, just want to monitor the charge speed. And there it is, the phone stop the charging at 99%, charging speed shows -1 , so basically the phone cut the power input when hitting 99% although the status still not fully charged. Until I rebooted the phone then it will hit 100%.
So what happened to my phone? I'm using original charger from the box. Is it software or hardware issue? Thank you
The first image is when stucked on 99% and the charge speed show -1. After that I rebooted the phone then charge speed increasing, not -1 anymore at 99%. The second image is when the phone says fully charged at 100% and charge speed back to -1, which is normal if the phone already fully charged.
EDIT:
Solved - see my post below

What is it at though? But on all my previous rmas, I had sometimes great issues in from charging past 98%.. I would have to turn it off for it to register that it's actually charged to 100% and more than likely it would drop to 99 as soon as I unplugged it.

Yeah I got a replacement at the time but not for that sole reason so I don't know if it would work but I don't think it's that much of an issue if you are still getting 6+h sot

Yeah, I'm planning to do that. I'm just uncomfortable with my phone acting weird, it supposed to hit 100% everytime normally like before. And a little afraid that this issue would make any affect in the future, broken battery or worse. If there's an explanation how this is happened and it's safe, then I might not make any complain anymore.

I had the same issue with my Oct 18 2 XL.
Download Accubattery and "calibrate" your battery.
It removes a file (.bin or something) that resets the batter charge percentage.
I really think the 99% thing is harmless, but if it bugs you (I get it) Accubattery will remove the file that resets it.
Good luck!

I currently using AccuBattery as shown on my post attachment and I didn't found any "calibrate" menu inside the app.
I've done so many methods, like drain the battery to 0% and charge it or re-flash factory image but seems none worked. So I search on the internet about delete the .bin file under root/data folder, but I didn't found any folder called data on /root (currently running android 10). I'm stucked.
So I'm thinking how if pull the battery out and put it back maybe it will reset something, but it seems impossible to do with myself. Until I found a method to hard reboot the phone with press power button + vol down for maybe 10sec. My phone was 75% at that time, after hard reboot my battery increased to 78%. Then I tried to charge the phone and voila, hit 100% normally, didn't need to unplug and replug to hit 100% anymore. It's been 3 days my phone is act normal again. Hope it will lasts forever.
So my conclusion is, seems the hard reboot method somehow force cut the power from the battery to the phone just like we pull out battery then put it back and maybe it's reset something maybe like batterystats or anything. Idk. But I'm glad nothing happened and it was just software error.

When you download Accubattery, open it, it automatically 'calibrates' your battery (see pic)

Oh, I just realized that. Thank you. But I think it didn't work for me. Nvm, my phone is normal now :laugh:

I had somewhat of the same issue with my phone too. Would sit around 98% then after taking it off the charger overnight, my battery would drop like a rock to around 85%. No idea if I was just imagining things but I don't remember that much battery life wasted away like that overnight when not in use at all.
I also sent mine in for RMA last Thursday and get it back later on today so hopefully the issue will be resolved.

I have also been experiencing the same issue since upgrading to Pie last year. Once it returned to normal for 1 month only and then went back to 98% charging issue until today

I would assume broken battery. Never experienced drain so much like that when not in use. My phone normally about 1-2% drop overnight (always on display off). It's great you got replacement, but check twice for screen, 2 XL known for defective screen.

Yeah I am content with the RMA replacement it's just fine, no issues thus far. Just annoying the update breaks charging sound file and lockscreen lock/unlock sounds. But I eventually got those issues fixed too.
