Okay heres what happened. Last night whilst flashing my xda IIi to the 1.162 with O2 stripped out and camera fix rom, the winbloze bsod came up when it was part way through the CE part of the flash(the third part). The phone said it was complete but woudlnt boot up so I rebooted the pc and went through the whole flashing process again, which worked ok. I restored my backup and all was working well. This morning on the way to work I was using it with the wireless connection in operation and all was well. I switched it off and put it in the inside pocket of my jacket, to get off the bus to go to work and when I got into work I went to put it in the cradle and realised that it was very warm. Further more it would not switch when the power button was pressed. I took the battery out and tried my fully charged spare battery and whilst the boot up screen did come on quite clear initially, then it faded to blank white and now the screen is black and there is no response.
I tried a hard reset but still no response and the charging light does not come on when I put it in the cradle. If I take the battery out and put it in the cradle I get a flashing red light where the charging light is but otherwise, no other response. Is it dead? Is there nothing else that I can do? Please help someone as I am very attached to that device.
TIA
BTW the flashing red light when there is no battery in..... it flashes in a certain sequence of flashes. Does anyone know if these are error codes, pretty much like a pc will give a certain amount of beeps if there is a boot up error? amd does anyone know how to interpret them.
Once again, thanks in advance for your help.
are you try another bettery I think your bettery die
I have two original batteries, both do not work .
are you try to go to bootloader and flash it again I think 1.11.171 is the best rom
Update!!! Its life Jim but not as we know it!
Okay after leaving it on the cradle without a battery in for about an hour and a hard reset, it booted up to the windows mobile screen. After setting up the screen and such I was able to access the pda and restore a backup however
there is still a problem. It phased out a few times(screen faded to grey/white) and after setting up again it remained on but upon checking the power status I found that although the main battery was charging well the backup battery is on Zero and not charging. It has been so now for the last
3 1/2 hours sooooo that means that if the main battery loses power then I lose everything, also the bootloader has gone missing
I have this problem too with 2 of my xda II's its definatley not the battery as the battery works fine in my spare that i dare not update any fix for this yet?
helping you
hi im noel
can i know if any one help or did solve your problem in your xda 2i? i can help you just pm me...
I have searched the Internet and forums for days and can't find a solution to my problem. I have found a few with the same problem, but no solutions. Please help!
I have a Sprint HTC Touch Diamond 6950SP (DIAM500) running the original ROM. A few months ago and for no apparent reason, it stopped recognizing the battery and stopped accepting a charge. I haven't messed with the phone in any way or attempted to load a new ROM. The Power Status screen simply shows, "Main battery: Unknown". Plugging the phone in with the supplied charger will actually discharge the battery and the circular LED does not come on. I tried several soft and hard resets; then I downloaded and flashed the ROM with the one from the Sprint web site (WM 6.1 Professional 5.2.20764/Build 20764.1.4.3), but nothing seemed to help. I found that I could get the battery to charge by removing the battery (with the phone plugged into the charger) and then putting it back in. When the circular LED flashes twice, I remove the battery and wait till it flashes two more times, and then put the battery back in. This takes many attempts, and eventually the LED continues to flash and will charge the battery. I did this for a long time while I searched for a solution, and one day, it just started working again!!! The phone worked great for several months and suddenly, it has started doing the same thing again.
I decided to upgrade to WM 6.5 and downloaded all the necessary applications, (many thanks to XDA and friends). But, when I attempted to flash my ROM, it stopped and indicated that my battery was too weak - even though I new it had a full charge, (see battery status, above). I've checked the battery with a multimeter, therefore, I know it has a full charge. I don't have any other problems with the phone, nor do I have any problems with it sincing to my computer. I have since ordered a new battery, but it hasn't arrived yet. Someone please help.
Thanks.
I have read at other posts that the Diamond's battery has a recognition chip in it. Also, without the battery, it will not run from the charger. Could the chip in the battery be bad? Has anyone else had this problem?
Is there a registry fix (or tweak) for the battery status? Please, one of you must know something about this.
Got my new battery - the phone does not power up, charge or anything else with the new battery. I tried charging the new battery with the method I've tried before, (see above), but it won't even light the circular LED. I checked the new battery with a multimeter, and it shows it has 3.7 volts. Now what? Any ideas would be appreciated.
that happened to me for a little while. idont know what it was but it wouldnt charge using the usb cable to any computer or even the a/c adapter but it would charge with another wall charger i had. after a couple days a friend had his psp over and i charged my phone with his cable on my computer like nothing and after wards it all worked again
Thank you so much for your reply!!!

I have tried other cables and chargers, but none have helped. Last time my phone started working properly, I had plugged it in to my computer, but that hasn't happened this time. Thanx for your comments - keep 'em coming.
I purchased a new charger/docking station for my phone and spare battery. It wouldn't charge my phone or the new battery I purchased either. The new battery still will not work in my phone - paper weight! The charger does charge my old battery, though. Does anyone know if you can run a Touch Diamond from the USB/charging cable without the battery installed? Mine won't, but I was wondering if it should.
Hey man
you know that happend to me when i first flashed my diamond for metro i bought a new battery and nuthing changed so what i did was a hard reset and it fixed it for me but i dont know thats just me and if u want to try it make sure u back up ur contacts with PIM backup hope u fixe it

Thanks, Krzynate! I tried that already, many times now, (see my first post in this thread). Thanks anyway and please keep the posts coming.
I had the same problem.. I ended up buying a new battery and it wouldn't charge in my phone. So I ordered an external charger from EBAY for 10$. My new battery is charging so It might be the solution you are looking for.
Thank you so much for posting! As I wrote previously,
(I purchased a new charger/docking station for my phone and spare battery. It wouldn't charge my phone or the new battery I purchased either. The new battery still will not work in my phone - paper weight! The charger does charge my old battery, though.), this did not fix my problem. The vender that sold me the new (bad) battery is sending me another one - hopefully, it will work this time.
It's Fixed!!!
I wrote the Internet store where I purchased the non-working battery. They sent me another battery and now it's fixed!!! The battery indicator and status all recognize the new battery! Apparently, there is a recognition chip in the battery; the original battery's chip's software became corrupted, and the other "new" battery's chip was blank. The original battery still works, (as long as I charge it with the external charger), and still has an unrecognized status in WM 6.1. Please pass this info on to others that have simular problems. Thanx XDA!
Hi guys..
I have had my Tilt now for about 2months and recently tried downloading a 200Meg file off the web with it. It drained the power even though the charger was plugged in and so I was clever enough to fool around with chargers...Bleh.. Anyway, so what had happened is that after me switching the phone off etc. I tried charging again without downloading and when I plug the charger in, NOTHING happens..the green light flashes like normal, no light changes and no blips or notifications come up or anything. If I switch the phone off and then plug the charger in, the red light appears and stays there (and I presume it charges). So now I can´t find a fix..Seen MANY other threads regarding similar problems but 90% result in getting a replacement from the supplier which is not possible for me since I don't work off contract and neither is the warranty still valid and neither do I live even NEAR a HTC dealer. I've tried soft resets, hard resets, restarting phone with charger and battery in, without battery in etcetc. The battery is fine.
So it seems my last resort would be opening up the phone and looking if by luck I can see or measure something. Any help at all will be greatly appreciated

I have same problem, My HTC only charge when power off, No active sync... but i could up rom because in bootloader 3.56 only show USB without serieal . Yesterday i uprom ship end restore SPL. Then my HTC Kaiser can't uprom. It only sirieal when conect USB.
I think it cause by software without hardware. So everyone help us...help me too
Yeah, mine doens't get recognised by my computer at all. Which means no backups or syncs somehow I think my friend's broken TYTN II is gonna come in handy...hmm....
And just for more info, I am as I'm speaking, charging my phone (with it being off) and the red light has been on around an hour long.. Gonna see if it goes off or changes.. Will report back once something happens
Brian
Edit: I just switched my phone on (after around 2 hours charging with it being shut down) even though the light was still red, battery is now 100%.. so.. I'm now downloading the next 200meg file and another 39 files to go
Update: Just something weird.. The tilt was charging(in its shut down mode) and then suddenly switched on by itself.............. uhm..yeah.. so once it came on, i looked and everything was still the same.. pulled out the charger, switched off, put charger back in(cause the battery was about 30%) and boom, green light and switches on again bleh.. so now I fiddled with the battery and charger, and got it to charge in its off state again with the red LED.

I thiink, it can "fix in booting safe mode". But I can set it to safe mode
You can try it, follow step in the link, then re tell to me!
every oen, who can help us?!
hey, I took a look there and I tried those things but it didn't work. Apparently there is no "Safe mode" for these phones unless you have a third-party software. So just to confirm, I took a look through the user manual and found nothing, Googled "HTC TyTN II Safe Mode" and found random stuff but not much related besides third-party Apps. So then I just tried randomly fooling around with my TyTN II by holding and pressing random sets of keys while pressing the soft reset button. No luck.

Hi,
I have an SGS GT-I9000 (T-Mobile UK), I had stock ROM 2.1-update1 a week ago (this was my Mum's phone, now mine). As I already have one phone I decided to root this and install CM7 using the latest wiki instructions (Heimdall, ROM Manager) including CWM, this rooted, unlocked, updated.. Of note, my phone does not have the 3BR, I have not yet fixed that with Odin, I have made a 301K Jig. The phone also has a forced upload mode immediately displayed while phone on and pressing Home+Up.
After installing CM7 (phone wasn't fully charged during install, a friend was helping me and it was taking too long to charge again after failing to unlock the network via adb for some time) the battery was not full, I used the phone for a while and plugged in later. The problem is that it got to ~54% and didn't move for an hour or so, battery would quickly drop a percent or two again. At this point the iPod wall socket displaying as "charging (USB)" in About.
I reset the battery stats in CWM which did nothing to the current battery level reading of 54%. I flattened the battery with GPS, speaker, WiFi tether, etc. got to 1% then turned off after a while, would not turn on again. So I charged with an HTC wall charger, which forces the phone to be fully awake thanks to CM7, also showing AC as the source this time, but although the battery quickly reached 10% and 30%, it did not pass 66% after more than 12 hours charging.
I am happy with the usage (~day) I get from this phone, but I would like it to say 100% occasionally.
I will flatten the battery again, then plug in to switch on, followed immediately by reboot into recovery (an option in CM), then I will leave it over night ~7-8 hours charging in recovery, and perform another stats wipe. I have read that without 3BR I may never get my phone on again (low bat boot loop) if it gets too flat, I hope that doesn't happen (didn't last time, before I read that).
Any help?
Also, there is one other thread about never fully charging: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=780340 but the OP says that it displays 100% but keeps on charging anyway.
Just run it through a full charge cycle 2 or 3 times, its just lost is head,it comes back,...........im on insanity cm 022.....happened to me

Still not charging
Hi, thanks for your advice, I have now completed several full cycles and with patience I am getting 100%. The problem still exists though, it take 24-26 hours to charge from 0 to 100% even with flight mode on for half of that time, longer if not. I am using an AC charger (as recognised in the battery menu). I do get about 12 hours of light usage from the phone, but will lose the first 10% while browsing the internet even while still plugged in.
Any further advice would be greatly appreciated. (I have tried a couple of different wires and plugs, some say USB, others AC).
S
P.S. I am considering finding a stock ROM and fixed 3BR partition and reverting back to a better than before stock, unlocked, unrooted system.

Baring in mind that batteries never charge to 100% dude even when it says it has, this is a safety feature to prevent over charging and exploding batteries, I'd go through the cycle again, let your battery go dead, try switching it on to make sure the batteries dead, then whilst off, charge your phone till full, then unplug and plug in again to make sure its full, then if its full boot immediately into recovery and delete battery stats, repeat these steps another 2-3 times bud

Cheers, I can't charge with the phone off though, another reason for going back to stock maybe (or removing clockworkmod). I would have expected batteries to trail off near the limits, but the charge rate is fairly consistent throughout. I shall keep cycling the battery and resetting the stats though, so far no improvement, it's just an inconvenience to be without a phone every other day.
I know the feeling bud and I know its tedious, but keep at it and it should get better pretty soon so long as you stick to the cycle

Well all started 3 days ago after I installed an app (I'm not blaming it) called Le Battery or something like that, then it said the app was saving me over 40% of battery. When it went to 29% I left it charging during the night, when I woke up my phone was completely charged, and the screen had a problem, it looked like when you are recording tv from a camera, or you put a phone under water without protection, the point is I unplugged it inmediately and it stopped, but it still was saying it was charing , so I rebooted it and everything seemed fine, when I plugged it back it dind´t charge, I tried another charger, but before I could plug it into the wall, it had the LED on, so my phone was charging the charger....:silly:
I took off the battery and that´s how I keept it since then, everythime I charge it I have to take off the battery and when I put it back in it has 94% charged If I plug the charger it will intantly say it has 100% and will stay like that until I take the battery again, the voltage stays at 4290 when it´s on 94% and already tried to charge it with an universal charger and it´s full, so the problem it´s my phone.
This is what I´ve tried:
1-Changed ROM 2 times (now I have DMod v5)
2- Factory reset
3- Wipe cache and the dalvik (or something like that)
Nothing worked
No luck, I´m about to die
Try to callibrate your battery.
This can help your problem.
