Can you use someone else's battery to try. Your battery may have just died, some do from time to time.

mmm
I'm not sure, but I don't think it's a battery death problem.
When I turn off it, I CAN CHARGE IT with pc.
I've noticed that if it's turned on, no charge.
If it's turned off, from 15% is now 36% of charge.
WHY???

So if you leave the phone turned off and connected to the PC for a few hours does the battery recharge to 100% and then the orange light change to green? If you then turn the phone on does the light still go out after a couple of minutes? The current draw will be lower when the battery is 100% charged (as it will be when charging while the phone is off). Some PC's can be flakey with high current draw devices on the USB port.
In the situation you described when the light goes off, will the phone still remain connected via Active Sync (or Vista equivalent)? I'm trying to weed out whether the USB connection has anything to do with it. As for those mains chargers, my one (which came with the PPC) worked about 4 times and the first time I had to recharge the PPC from a totally flat battery it died about 3 seconds into the charge. There was a loud click from the charger and it's light extinguished so I dont have much faith in the mark 2 chargers supplied to UK customers. I'm currently waiting on a different warranty replacement - hopefully like the original type with interchangable 'head' to suit different countries.

now it's not fully recharged, but I've just now turned on the phone and the % is growing.
I've always recharged my phone via pc because I left it connected to my pc at work every day during the working day.
only sometime I recharge it via wall plug at home.
dunno why but from yesterday the wall plug works 2 (or less) minutes and the pc is not anymore able to charge the phone.
now, with all the phone switched off (so, also activesync connection closed), the pc can recharge it.
ARGH

I have also the same problem since yesterday

Did you do anything with the PPC before the problem occurred or was it just out of the blue?
I'd also like to know from leopardone how it goes with regards to answering my questions once the battery is fully charged (if it gets that far).

Take batt. 10m out, i had this problem long time ago.
Do you use a other AC loader.... use only the org. AC loader !!!!
Install batt. status and take a look... you must wait a few min. before the batt is charged.

I didn't anything (and, also, in the doubt, I've hard resetted everything on order to have a clean system)
The phone is still in charge.
I'll let you know as soon as possible

yes the same rom.
the big problem now is that I also can not make connection with my pc to install an original rom in case it got to be returned for repair.

after 15 min without battery, I've turned on the pda and I'm trying to charge it.
it is WORKING!!!
the % is growing under my eyes!!!
THANKSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
I hope will not happens anymore...
btw: the problem, in conclusion, belongs to the hardware, and not to the rom, isn't it?

Hey I have the same problem... I am on the original HTC Rom.
All of a sudden today the batt is not charging on the wall socket or the PC USB cable.
There is no light whatsoever, The active sync is also not connecting.
I have hard resetted even then the same problem, I am guessing it is a hardware & not a software problem coz I didnt install any new prog/app since last time I charged.
Now I have removed the Batt, will reattach and check in about 15 mins lets hope it works...
Shall update soon.

Nope, Removing the battery and waited for 30 mins reconnected the batt still not working.
Nor is my kaiser charging while the phone is switched off.
The problem is notof the USB port coz the USB headphones are working fine..

I got a battery problem as well. Problem started 3 days ago (20/12-07)
My problem is that the battery drains to fast.. disconnected it around 02:00 when I was of to bed, (battery 100%) but when I woke up again around 09:00 the phone was dead. Thats only 7 hours.. and in standby mode!
I'm on the original HTC UK ROM and I have only installd a couple programs like the Kaiser Tweak, Handysafe, Wififofum, Sprite backup, Citrix client, puTTY, PocketRAR, Total Commander, TCPMP, Flash player, PK NewWarningColorBatteryClean3G, HTC GPRSmonitor.
So I'm guessing one of these programs drains the battery even when the phone in on sleep.... the ones I installed since 20/12-07 is PocketRAR, TCPMP, Flash player, PK NewWarningColorBatteryClean3G.
Has anyone had battery problems after installing these..
Any help is appreciated.

it is a hardware problem
when I hold the cable of the charger and push it against the usb port it does charge. when I stop pushing it stops charging.

Bettery/rom problem?

Hi everyone
So I have the battery problem-it`s not charging!
at start it showed all the time that it`s charging-eaven when it was unplugged!
so I searched and disabled the usb charging,through registry.
But then started another problem-it shows that it`s connected to wallcharger and so,and it shows it`s charging,and how full the battery is...BUT!
it`s all fake! it shows 100% but after few mins dies!It only charges and holds the power normaly only when i charge it through differient methods-with just ac adapter(just two wires-my brothers electrician so he knews how to..).
but it`s not the batterys fault-I just bought a new one.
So-what could be the problem,any ideas?
thanks and have a nice day
P.S.
I got it used.its G4
the info,that i found in it was:
ROM version:2.17.7.2 WWE
Radio version:02.07.10
So do you think that rom updeite could fix it?

I'm betting on hardware problem; maybe charging IC's or something but it's easier to just try a Hard-reset or flash a new ROM to see if it goes away. Only problem is battery must be over 50% to complete the upgrading

so which rom could be the best to upgrade to?

First get the battery fully charged somehow,it won't complete the rom flash if its below 50%,then download the official stock rom and flash it.

MDA V or Diamond2 battery charging

With my T-Mobile MDA V, aka Diamond2 I've the following problem.
Whem my battery is up for charging, lets say 23% remaining, I'll plug it into the USB port of my computer.
When charging all night, in the morning the battery level did not change at all or just went up a couple of %. No 100%, and yes the USB port, even when the computer is down, still has power.
After encountering this a couple of times, by change, I soft resetted the device during charging and after reset the battery level was at 100%.
I've done this now for many times, so it was not pure luck, I think.
Anybody have the same problem or does somebody know the fix for this issue.?
Thanks in advance...

Known problem, Software-related.
Reboot your phone and you will see it is 100% after charging for serveral hours. If you charge your phone while it's off, you will see the led will become green instead of orange.
Please search for the other threads, there are many threads about this already.

Some solution for can't charge to 100% (green light) - need confirm!

Dear All,
Until today, I believe many people still have battery charge problem (can not get greenlight when charge for many hours unless charge while turn system off).
TOday I just try to find what program or else cause this problem since I believe it's not hardware problem. and I just able to get a greenlight charged when I turn off "TouchFLO 3D" when charged!
I still not sure that "TouchFLO 3D" may cause problem. if anyone can confirm this please let me know too.
the step to test
got to setting --> today --> and turn of "TouchFLO 3D" (the system will return to original start menu)
Charge you phone as normally, and hope I'm right
Sorry if this post seem like to repeat again.. but I sure someone out there still want for solution to fix this problem or wait for HardSPL to flash another rom to fix this.
Good luck

same problem ! Sometimes it takes up to 14 hours to get the greenlight

This does not fix the problem, I never used TouchFLO and I do have this porblem. Thanks for the suggestion. I guess you where luck the first time you charged it after disabling.

Dear Mr_Q,
I'm not luck on the first time charge either. I have this problem almost 3 weeks since I bourght. Anyhow, Thank for all feedback! I will keep looking for other solution and if I found I will update to you guys again
Thank you!

What I stated on many other threads before:
- Problem is software-related
- Phone will charge normally and change LED from orange to green, when it is powered off.

Have you guys noticed that when charging via USB and a PC it is not a problem and the green light always comes. For me I only see the problem when connected to a wall charger...
R

Had this problem, but it seems to have resolved it self but then again ive installed and uninstalled so many programs could of been any one of them. I wouldnt worry too much windows 6.5 should be coming out soon, we'l all have to do a fresh install then.

If you switch-off the phone for charge, it is no problem.

Just like I stated.
It could be different when you charge it using a PC: it sees what way it is charged, as you can turn off charging from USB (Settings -> System -> Energy)..
I did not try this myself, I read about it once, but will try to see what the result is.
Thanks for your comment rakh1, will try.

Some phones don't have this strange behaviour, or do not have it directly, but some do get it after a (short) while..

The same charging problem
Hy folks,
I recently switched from the X1 to the Topaz (Diamond2) and I unfortunately have the same charging issue. I confirm that it must be some kind of software problem, because after soft-reseting the device the battery shows 100% and everything is fine. I installed G-Alarm and HD Tweak (to tweak the soft keys) -> maybe one of these programs causes this problem?
If someone knows how to fix this, please post asap.

You are correct, the phone is actually charged, althrough it says it isn't.
A soft-reset does 'fix' the problem.
I never installed the programs you mentioned, so that can't be the reason. Some other people thought it was related to battery-programs, but I doubt that.
An explaination to why some people do have this problem and some people don't, might be that they have different ROMs. Every country / phone has a different ROM. It could be driver or Windows-build related, so people with a different ROM may have a different build/drivers where the problem does not occur.
What I advice to do is wait for HSPL and upcoming ROMs, where cookers can combine the best builds and (latest?) drivers from the different ROMs HTC already has released.

I called HTC about this problem, they said a hard reset should fix the problem. But i guess the problem still exists if it's a problem in the ROM. Anyway my battery is almost empty after 2 days standby, instead of a week. So it wasn't fully charged or my battery is wasted due to this problem. When my phone is almost empty i will charge it for the first time after the hard reset, i'll keep you updated.

If you did not use your phone, 2 days is short, if you did use your phone, it is 'long'. A think a average user is able to use it for 1,5 to 2 days with one battery charge, whereas a 'heavy' user will need to charge his phone everyday. I seem to belong to the latest ones.

I have problem with battery lifetime, when i look under windows/setup/all/power/and the the information tab a complete charge have never been done ?? No info at all ? I use to charge it 10 hours every day, still the battery is emty at 19:00 with just speaking in the phone.

I noticed the problem during the first charging. Light didn't go green. Day after that, I must have had something running (now my "x" shuts off the application instead of minimizing...) because when I pressed the power on button to switch on the backlight (I never shut the phone completely down), the battery was totally empty.
I charged again (using a wall charger) and the phone was charged within an hour or so. The light DID went green, btw.
Later that day I got some beeps: your battery level is dangerously low.
So I charged again, this time on USB. I checked in settings - power and it showed that the phone was fully charged, but the light remained orange. However, about half an hour after that, the light went green.
So with me, charging DOES complete including a green light, but quite a while after the status bar in setting shows that the battery is fully charged. I use a lot of music and wifi on the phone, so I have to charge on a regular bases. Will keep the battery life posted.

As you haven't charged your phone a couple of times, it is hard to say if you have this problem. Charging using USB of a computer seems to work fine for some users, but I still did not test it myself. My phone charged fine the first time, from the wallet..
Another thing is, that the problem with the led nog changing is because the battery (charge) bar is stuck. So after charging it for like 8 hours, it is still at 51%.. (for example)..
If your charge bar does go to 100%, it will go to green, I guess...

I also have this problem, but only since i upgrade my rom to the latest version from the HTC site. i have a dutch ROM. I think the problem is in the new rom. with the old 1 i did not have this issue

No; in that case I explained it wrong. My charge bar goes to 100%, and stays there, with the light still orange. After some time (mostly about half an hour or so), the light will turn green. Meanwhile, so while the charge bar is at 100%, the text still says "busy charging" (translated from the Dutch I get).

[Q] Charging Battery so loong...

I charged my X1 with wall adapter. But after 2 hrs, the phone is still charging.
See the battery meter it has reached 100%. Then wait another hrs, the phone is still charging. After almost 4 hrs, the illumation light is finally off.
Q: Is it ok? Does it happen to yours?

dosen't wake up
after the x1 charges to full battery, the device dosen't wake up on pressing the power button, this thing is new, almost few weeks, i don't understand, is a hardware problem or a rom problem... can anybody help me with this,
ps... the xperia illum lights dosen't turn off after charging, and charger disconnected they still blink

It's normal behaviour of the Xperia X1 to keep charging when the battery meter has reached 100 %. And it's also common for the charging process to take some time. I don't know exactly how long the process takes because I usually charge the battery during the night but charging an empty battery is certainly not accomplished in under an hour.
Your second problem could be a software issue. What rom is installed on your phone? Custom or stock? Have you tried a hardreset yet?

It happens to all X1. AFAIK, it's okay to disconnect the charger after X1 reach 100%, no need the blink to be stopped. The same thing is happened to my previous HTC too.

I don't know any Windows Mobile Phone that stops charging immediately when the battery meter has reached 100 %. One reason is that the meter only measures in 10 % steps. So when it reaches 100 % it might only be 96 %. To charge the battery completely you have to leave it connected until the leds stop indicating the charging process.

Okay guys, I got u people's meaning, yeah I remember that it was happened to my elder PDA too, O2 mini. Thank you people, to spend your time. Sorry bother you.
