hardreset after changing battery - PDA2, XDA IIi, 2020i General

My xdaIIi always hardreset whenever I changing the battery. Just wonder any body has the same problem and how to fix it.
Of course the battery I change is a fully charged battery and I do it quickly (within 30 seconds)

The reason why this happens is because u r not switchig the phone off before changing the battery..

thanks for your reply and I will give it a try.
However, I don't have that problem in the old xdaII. It won't hard reset even I don't switch off the phone.

Maybe a silly question but ... how do i switch off the phone? As far as i know it can't be shutdown, only putted in sleep mode (when pressed the turn off button). The terminal is always on.
So ... this way ... is really possible for example to change the SIM without having a hardreset??
I have a qtek 2020i (similar to xda 2i)
Thanks

I think switch off the phone = turn on the flight mode :roll:

kaiser not booting - says battery empty while it isn't

Hello good people,
I've been searching the forums but i don't seem to be able to find a solution for my dead kaiser.
I'll explain the problem:
When i push the power button on my Kaiser, it start's booting the first part, displaying the "smart mobility" slogan by HTC, after a few seconds, some data appears in red, in the right lower corner of the screen, this is what is says:
R 1.27.12.11
G 22.45.88.07H
D 1.56.00.00
After displaying this for a while (about 1 min.) it goes to the Windows Mobile Splash Screen.
After displaying this for a few seconds (5 to 10 secs) it makes the "empty battery" sound and shuts down.
Can someone help me ?
*** And NO, the battery is NOT empty ... i've charged it over night, and the power light was green. ***
I've tried booting with and without SIM and MicroSD cards ... makes no difference.

Will it boot with the phone plugged in to power?
Bill
Yeah, try booting with the charger on. Chances are that your battery' life is out..
Reagdrs,
Carty..
I have had the same thing and wondered if it was the battery... except that sometimes it will stay on for about 2 minutes, sometimes half an hour... but most of the time as soon as it goes to the Today screen, I get the battery dead sound and then it turns off. I am going to try to use another battery to see if that makes a difference.
it's not the battery
I've tried with the power cord on the phone, it does 2 things:
1. The same thing as i said before
2. Doesn't boot at all, it halts on the screen where the red data shows up and stays there until you take the power cord off and the battery out.
It does one of these things, randomly.
I've also tried with another battery from my friends kaiser which works perfectly.
So i guess it's not the battery, anyone another idea what it could be?
Might be something wrong with the firmware or anything? problem is, i can't flash it if it doesn't boot can i ??
any ideas ?
Today i managed to get my hands on a brand new kaiser battery, my uncle has a brand new kaiser and i borrowed his battery.
His battery was full, i put it in my kaiser and tried booting, same problem as above.
I've tried with the power cord plugged into the phone, the charging led went on, and i tried booting, same as above.
Later i've tried with the USB cable connected to the phone and the computer, still the same.
I've also tried soft&hard resetting with the new battery, no succes.
So therefore, i believe it's not a battery or a power problem, it must be firmware corrupted or something of the hardware broke ?
Does anyone has any idea how i can try to re-flash this thing ? to find out if that might be the problem ?
It's not the battery. Could be a bad flash or something. Try to reflash it. Yes, it will reflash even though it won't "boot" as you say. Try to reflash and then report back. Remove the memory card for now.
Also, what Rom and SPL are you using?
Ur going to have to force it into the bootloader to flash it, no biggie. Just hold down the power and camera buttons, and hold the soft reset button with the stylus, untill you get the tri color boot screen. Then flash away! I would flash a stock rom until u can tell weather your problem is hardware related or not. If hardware related keep the stock rom and spl, and try to warrenty return it.
O.k., this just happened to my Brand New kaiser last night too, WTF! Was running fine when the low battery icon came up with half battery life n shut down, now it wont start up at home screen for more than 3 secs before it shuts down and says the battery is dead even while its plugged in! There's no way to reflash or hard reset since it doesn't stay on long enough to do so. Just ordered my replacement, but reading different forums, it seems many people have experienced this with Kaiser and most around the same time, again, WTF!!!

Does it power off while beeing in bootloader? You doesnt have to start the device up to get into bootloader you know. Try checking if it shuts down while beeing in bootloader, if its not just reflash. Another thing, what spl and rom are you guys having this problem using?
It's alive!!!
Finally got it to bootloader mode before it dies and reflashed and it seems to be running just fine now. Using spl ver.1 with schaps 4.30 wm 6 (although users running the stock rom had the same experience). Got the "smart chip not provisioned mm 2" message most likely from at&t killing my sim card from a reorder as they did when I Returned the Iphone which is a rediculous policy(policing); having to constantly contact at&t to update to a new sim. Still, it makes me wonder what caused this defunct in the first place, and if it'll happen again tomorrow or the next day. Reflashing and reinstalling cabs is a Real *****, especially for a pda where people use their device for business and gather a collection of missed calls and lost connections when the Os decides to randomly crash. As much as I dig htc's devices, it's kinda strange how HTC, with such a huge marketshare with pda's, is so quiet about updates or firmware fixes. Anyways, long live the only source for htc fixes, XDA!!
Mine is still completely in the state in which i got it.
Just the stock HTC Firmware, rom's and loaders
Okay, a little update.
How the hell can i flash this thing if it keeps on bugging me with the "Wrong vender ID" message when i try to flash it ?
I know, install HardSPL ... but how can i ? without a possibility to connect ActiveSync?, you'll have to start the device for that and run activesync, but i can't because it won't even boot.
Is there any other way of getting this device to allow me to flash without needing to boot it up fully.
I have no problems getting in to the Tri-Color bootloader, but no further.
When updating it gets to 1%, then my PC gives the message: "Wrong vender ID, please use your own device's update utility" and the phone stays at 1% till i rip out the battery.
ok guys I have the same problem with two of my kaiser's
I can power them up but in aproximately 1 minut goes off, no matter if the charger is plugged or not, it doesn't make a difference
I can put the phone in tri-color screen and stays there with no problem
and I can flash them with no problem because they are olipro already
but after flash them with anything still the same problem ???
so if anybody has a clue or maybe a rom to fix this would be great
thanks
best regards
linterna
One more thing. I have the same problem but mine when starts flashes Blue LED when was good hasn't. I Started few times and it works for 2-3 weeks and again. Best to do is to not use camera. Every time it happends i ise my camera and battery was middle-low. I think its some problem with camera. Many times it don't want to start up or saids that there is no memory for saving photo. Maybe i should flash rom from wersion without cameras.
im having the same problem, has anyone solved this?
Yeah solve . HTC as a kids toy .
Buy Nokia! Or SonyEricsson.
I won't buy smartphone ever again.
Does not boot to the OS
I have the similar problem...... My kaiser is dead not even booting with battery only (not plugged to the PC or external charger).
However when I plugged it to the power source it boots up and continue to the OS and boom (shuts off) in split of second.
I tried different flash and it propelry boots and got windows up and running when plugged to the PC with the old ATT test ROM which I got from the xda threads.
But with the latest roms it wont boot to the windows , it dies before that.
Anyone having idea what could resolve this.
any update on this? i am having the same problem. i tried a hard reset already with no success it goes to the splash screen and says "the device is clearing the storage. please wait" then pings and turns off
r 1.65.21.18
g 25.88.40.05h
d 3.57.00.00
my phone is completely stock and has never been unlocked or messed with. found an updated at&t rom, i ran it and none of the numbers change in the bootup, then goes to the splash screen and says again "the device is clearinng the storage. please wait" and then pings and turns off.
also i have been searching for the oilpro or jockeyw hard spl files on google and on here but have found nothing, the search function doesnt seem to be able to find much.
any help would be appreciative, thanks in advance
Don't mean to hijack but didn't want to make my own thread when this one was here. I'm not having exactly the same problem as everyone else but I am having a battery issue. It works fine and says it's charging when plugged in but when I unplug it the battery goes down fast (like 1-4 % a minute) and when it hits around 70%, it shuts off. Then whenever I turn it on, it immediately shuts down before the Today screen fully shows (like others are mentioning here). I have to plug it back into the charger to get it to turn on again.
Could this be a bad flash too..? I know I did one of the latest HardSPLs and tonight I just now updated to the latest stock AT&T ROM. But it can't be a flash because the night I got it (bought it used on eBay), I was playing with it not plugged in using Skype and it shut off on me. I didn't think much of it and had always had it plugged in since then.
I'm assuming I simply need a new battery.. I've emailed the original owner and she says she never had any problems with it like this.

I've just started having the same problem as you. Very annoying. Mine phone is a year and a half old now, so i'm assuming the battery is coming to an end.
Charge battery, will last a while, but goes down to around 80-70% and then it says plug power in blah blah blah and dies. Then when you charge it, it stays on one or 2 bars for a bit and then jumps to 100% fully charged.
Saw a procedure to "reset" the battery. Supposedly have to take the battery out for a bit then plug in and charge fully over night with the phone OFF. None of this seemed to work for me... I'm due for an upgrade in January, so is it really worth paying for a new battery... hmmm

Diamond won't turn on

Whilst attempting to flash the WWE 1.93 ROM my diamond lost connectivity at 87% of the way - consequently I performed a soft reset which seemed to turn the device off.
The phone now won't switch back on - both a soft / hard reset fail to coerce any life back into it.
Curiously the LED which illuminates the centre button and normally glows when charging now doesn't light up - even when the Diamond's plugged into a power socket.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Have you tried taking the battery out for a few minutes?
I have, to no avail unfortunately.
Is it possible that whilst the device is being flashed the diamond is instructed not to charge via usb and that it has retained that setting which would explain why it's not charging now?
And that my battery is flat, which could potentially be what caused the failed flash in the first place and is the cause of the device's current failure to switch on. So potentially all this would be fixed by simply inserting a charged battery?
Or is that just foolishly optimistic?
Have you managed to get your device back to life?
Mine had to soft reset and after this it didn't do anything. No boot, nor do I see the icon blink when I connect it to a charger.
Afraid not.
In the end I ended up sending it to the warranty centre - it arrived there yesterday and apparently their engineer has yet to determine liability (whether it's human error or claimable under warranty).
I'll keep you posted.
Thanks for the quick response. I will let my Diamond alone without the battery for one day to see if it will wake up. Otherwise I'll send my device back for warranty as well.
Wont Turn On
My Diamond will not turn on either. Nothing destructive was done to the phone. I installed a brand new charged battery and that didn't solve the problem. Hitting reset does nothing also..... I'm stumped..
I've returned my device under warranty. They've replaced the main board of the device, had no problem since.
if you have not any warranty yet and you want to fixed the device? what other solution remains? because i have also try to update my htc touch diamond rom and before the 0% start my device turn off and from that time is dead !! any solution is acceptable . thanks
I would in this order
softreset
hardreset
try another battery in the device
try the battery in another device
write it off as being defect hardware
....
if u connect usb and enter into bootloader?
my htc is dead
i can't do the following with the device switch off , if i connect the device with the pc, nothings happened, neither the cycling light that do on charging mode.
*****softreset
hardreset
try another battery in the device

Same problem with my brother's phone. One day it stopped tuning on or charging without any particular reason. I ordered a new battery and tried with that but same thing. No charging. Only once after a leaving the original battery out of the phone for a few minutes when I reconnected it and tried to charge it lit the charging button for a couple of times and then off again and from then on it has never done that not even once.

MY HTC diamond does not switch on neither does it charge.....please help :(

Hi, I have been using my HTC diamond toch for nearly 2 1/2 months. a few days ago, i did a rom update using Dutty's rom update. All went fine duing the update. used the phone for about 5 days nonstop, no issues at all.
But yesterday all of a sudden the phone has swtiched off by itself, now it doesn't switch on. Thought the battery might be dead so i tried charging but the enter buttton area doesnt glow and there is no sign of charging.
I switched batteries with a friend to see whether it was faulty but it is in good condition.
What do u think the issue will be ?
Thanks
Buddhi.
I have the same problem. I've just got my phone back from being repaired as the touch screen got all messed up and now it won't charge. I plug it in and the touch pad does the charge animation twice then stops. It'll randomly try to turn on but it doesn't even get to the point where the red writing apears before it turns off again.
Help?!
same problem here
Dudes.... Chill!!!!
Here's what you can all try ....
First you guys need to know that de HTC does not charge if the rom is inconplete/damaged .
And.....
If your batery is realy dead there is no initial power on the internal battery to manage the chargement.
So ... resolution.
Fist way .
If you know any one that may have an other HTC Diamond you need to swamp batteries so the good Diamond that has the internal bat ok and charge it there.
Second way . this one i did it my self .
Go to a Local ChinaMan store and buy a multimeter and a regular Universal Adapter.
Heres how it hoes ...
Use the Multimeter do figure out the polarity pin's on the battery ex: + and - .
remove / cut one of the plug's from the Universal transformer and also tag the polarity.
set the voltage to be close to 5 V - 1 Amp .
Can be 4,5v or 5.5v no sweat
Conect the cuted wire from the Univ. Adapter to the Diamond Battery respecting the polarity.
Leave it for a wile..... ( Probably up to 1 hour but chec from time to time tme battery temperature and if possible a reading on the bat voltage levels.)
Done!
Put the battery bat and boot your diamond or turn on to boot loader.
**** Attention if you don't have more than 50% of the bat charge compleated you wont be able to flash your phone****
Any questions Just reply back.
same problem...
its just...my battery was full before the upgrading...i was Unlocking my Diamond..and the upgrade didnt move more than 0% just when i looked on my mobile...there was black screnn...pluged it out..tried to power on..nothing..tried to charge...nothing again..i tried hard reset(vol down+power+back+reset)..it just wont turn on..please help me..im in panic
Help, I have the same problem and my battery was fully charged before this happened. Voltage reading is 4.2V on the battery.
I also tested the power button and there is nothing wrong with it, it conducts when pushed.
Usually pluging in the charger should start it up, but it will not start.
Anyone have any solutions?
I couldn't fix mine so phones 4 u replaced it with a touch hd

I had the same exact problem two days ago.The phone was not charging while it was on,and when it was off it did that charging light animation twice and then third time the litght managed to get in the middle of the button and sudennly stopped. So here is my solution . I'v managed to charge the battery on another phone and turned my Diamond back on. While still attached to charger and power source i'v performed a soft reset (by pressing the reset button beneath the stilus) ...the phone reseted and now it's all ok.

I had same problem , no solution yet.
When I had a Mpx220 I had fixed changing a fuse, but I can´t see nothing in internet guides or foruns.
If someone knows how to repair tell us, becouse htc service in our country isn´t good and my device is outdate warranty.
Regards,
Gus
Someone has fixed?

Hard spl .. charging issue

Since i've had the hard spl done for my x1 , I've noticed the following :
- phone indicate thet it's charging while plugged to either usb or AC , but it doesn't actually charge. ( light's flash , and the icon in the top of screen shows it's plugged in )
-I've removed re- insterted the battery , but nothing changes
- i've checked/unchecked the USB charging , in the power options and nothing happens for both the usb and the AC . "ie. indicates charging while not"
- battery charges normally on an external charger , and changing the battery didn't fix the problem .
-tried to hard-spl again while the charger is on , but again didn't fix it
-tried multiple caples , and two different AC chargers
_____ to cut this short , i just wanted to ask , if the hard spl could have caused this ( i mean could it be a software thing) , and if it is a software thing would returning to the stock spl fix the problem ( i know that the hardspl is write protected thought ) .
and sorry but one more question, is there a way to indicate weither the problem is a software or a hardware problem ... Hope that you can help guys , as taking the battery in and out sucks , it is a small matter but you won't feel it unless you try it , it SUCKS
by the way the phone will not charge while turned off aswell

When you say external charger, do you mean a charger seperate from the X1 itself? Just needed clearification.
What Hard SPL did you use and do you have a X1a or X1i?
What i meant by an external charger is " a charger that charges the battery seperatlly , you remove the battery out of the phone and place it in the charger " ( hope you get what i mean )
my phone is X1i
I've used Olinex X1_HardSPL_v1
Hope that this helps , lemme know if you need to know anything else , my exams are too soon , and i'm so pissed off , the problem is that i've bought this phone somewhere in the middle east ( where i used to live ) , and i'm currently in ireland ( they didn't even start selling the phone here ) so if i can't fix it , no one can .
Could it be something to do with the battery driver ! .. but if that was the case " how do ppc charge while turned off !!"
1 try usb charge
2 get phone serviced
The usb charge didn't work .. and as i mentioned above i can't get the phone serviced here in ireland since the phone didn't arrive yet , I won't head back to the middle east untill may/june .. I willing to even donate to whoever get me through this thing .. I know that there is someone out there who's able to find a solution ... yet still waiting for that someone
seems that your recharge circuit is broken... maybe a coincidence with hardspl procedure, I never seen hardspl damaging a phone this way
just in case, did you tried to reflash your original spl?
nevered backed-up my orginal spl ... software wize, all that i've done , is doing the hard spl with the ruusigned_072stockspl fil .. in an attempt to get things back to normal ( doesn't make sence though ) . flashed with multiple roms ( UK, US , TW , Touch , jacks and others ) .. what do you recommend ?
I just noticed the same problem.
Wall charger works, but when connected to computer with usb, it won't charge. The charging icon blinks in the upper right corner, but no charging.
Just flash the hard-spl, and a cooked ROM.
Any idea?
Hardware or software problem?

I have charging issue to! When in charge i get sometimes (more oftent than i like) standby screen of death. What should i do?

I had the Standby of Death SOD this is when the phone fails to come out of standby with a power button press. This issue only affects some people on some networks. I'm not sure if its a network problem or a software problem but as only a minority of people have it, I suspect its mainly a network problem there is a software solution.
The solution is to change the phone settings band option from auto 3G/2G to either 3G Only (WCDMA + UTMS 2100 in Europe) or 2G Only (GSM + AUTO) depending on your requirements.
Also read this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=540943&highlight=standby&page=2 where the resolution was to get a new SIM.
Obviously this only solves the problem when the crash is because of the sim and/or settings which impact the sim. To rule out a software cause its best to start with a hard reset.
I had the same thing..my phone would not charge in any way...but a few days later..it kinda fixed itself...
hmmm strange i had it too...
left phone charging over night and when i woke up phone was dead?
when i plugged it in it had the red led lit on the power button
luckily after 30 mins of charging via wall charger phone booted up again...
now i'm realising how slow USB charging is...
but phone has somehow fixed itself? havent had issues since...

[HELP] Phone stays on for 30s only .

So, I posted this on facebook group, but maybe there is someone in here who can help and isn't part of the group, so i'm posting here too .
So guys, i have a situation here, i was charging my phone, everything was okay, then it started to rain and started to lightning, the next day, when i took my phone off the charger, it wasn't working, it wasn't turning on, then i brought it to the support, they said everything was fine and even the phone was turning on, but not getting out of the logo screen, they didn't know how to enter in S/W mode, so i took it back and now the phone is with me, but it doesn't wanna turn on, even in the S/W mode. Then i ask you guys, there is anything i could do? If there is, please let me now, or do they lied to me ? I didn't want to get rid of my OB that soon. PS: I was using CM10.1 with ZeroGravityKernel.
The phone now turn on sometimes, stays awake for 30s and then blacks out .
I'm able to enter S/W mode but can't use Smartflash, it takes a least 2 minutes to use it D: .
what do you mean by only 30s? Like the battery dies after 30s or it just turn off?
Before sending your OB to service again change the battery instead it might not function well anymore due to the lightnings.
wait, Using smartflash you don't need a battery! So if your phone still turns off after 30s... it's actually the phone itself then...
try an "active boot" :
remove the battery, hold power key, then plug the charger until the logo appears. if the airplane mode was OFF, phone will boot, then reboot and will display the battery missing mesage. you may activate the airplane mode in a very short time before this occurs. from there you'll see if the phone stays ON or not. If not, that means this is a software or hardware issue. if it stays ON, that means there is a problem with the battery itself, or a charging issue
