Tilt wont turn on or charge. Shows red light when plugged

Noobie addicted to flashing. The headline says it all. After about 5 -6 different flashes (mostly different ROMs), it wont turn on. And instead of the yellow light that shows when charging, it's a red one, and pushing the power button does nothing. PLEASE HELP!!

Ditto.... And I haven't had time to do any flashing (plenty of time for streaking, tho). lol. When did yours have this problem? Mine just happened last night. I have babied this one like there is no tomorrow, so there's no reason for it to just quit.

FWIW, mine happened the first night I owned it when it was completely standard (ie no flashing at all). All I did was plug it in to the charger. When I woke up the next morning it was as you described. The store reps tried every combination of new charger, new battery and new SIM card with my phone but in the end they gave me a new phone.

This is bizarre - the same thing happening to all of us on the same night?!?
I woke up late this morning because my phone alarm didn't go off. Upon inspection, I realized that it hadn't charged and was completely dead even though it was plugged in all night.
Now plugging it into the wall or into a USB port results in a red light, no charging. I can't even turn it on although it's directly connected to power.
I've flashed several ROMs, but I've been running Dutty's 7B since it was released two weeks ago or so - I doubt that's a factor.
Help? Anyone?

Ummm, ok this is really fawkin freaky...add me to the list. Running dualtouch 1.1. Hung up the phone, went back to it an hour later...dead as a doornail. Wouldnt charge, got the red LED. Luckily I'd only owned it for 27 days, so I returned it to my local AT&T store and got a new one....too many people on the same night for this to be an isolated incident...same as other users, babied it like, well, an overpriced cellphone . Methinks there is something afoot!!!

Add me to the list.
Ok, this just happened to me just now...
MY 400$ PHONE JUST QUIT!!!!!
Not even 4 days old and it just gave out...
My standpoint (im a techie nerd) is this:
I charged my phone on my moms blackberry charger (~500mA)
The kaiser needs 1A to charge, so i only had half the power i was told...
When I had 89% I really had 44% and it drained really fast. So when I got home it was around 53% meaning I only had about 2% battery left (understand?) and when i pulled it out of my pocket...nothing, it wouldnt turn on SO I FREAKED OUT!!!!!!
I called HTC and they said to try a new battery, so I am going to go to the ATT store tomorrow and try another battery.
O and the reason is,
when Li-ion batterys get really low, they cease to produce the charge needed to keep the miniport active, thus resulting in any attempt to charge as futile.
Thats why you need to take out the battery and 'jump start' it by stripping a usb cable and putting the corresponding wires on their terminals (red + back -)
which will forcefully charge the battery and allow the miniport to become operable again. At which point you can resume using the HTC OEM charger (1A output at 5v) to resume the full charge. No other charger will suffice.
Im am going to try this now, you guys too and report back!
Dismissed!!!!

But my battery is fully charged...

Sorry to tell... but when this happening you need a repair. I got this problem 2 times with my Wizard. It's a hardware problem.
I did all the tricks you can mention but at the end it needed a repair.
I had some luck after the second time i got a compleet new MOB from T-Mobile SHOP Sales-Manager (Utrecht).
It sounds like the problem is with the Kaizer... so far everything overhere is OK.
I use only the org. loader and USB-port on my computer. Don't use a other loader than that !!!!

Just wanted to add my name to this list...
I've had my Tilt about 2 days. I haven't flashed it, but I have run several cabs on it...I didn't have it on charger when I went to bed, when I woke up, it was off. The only thing I did different than the rest of you was I tried to turn it on before I put it on the charger and it came back on saying that the battery was critically low or whatever, so then I stuck it on the charger and it seems to be ok now.
I could see it being a hardware issue, just seems weird that so many people had it on the same night, and under such different circumstances.
Also, first post...this site is great and you are all smarter than I ever hope to be

okay lets try this...remove batt....let phone sit for a few minutes. plug into power source without batt. unplg again....then plug again. while plugged into power source...put batt in...then remove...then in again. then hit the reset button. ofcorse this has nothing to do with anything. but if it was me i would try anything lol....lets see what happens.

lol also...does the phone come on with just the power cable plugged in and no batt? im curious to know about that. the latest version of kaiser tweak has a bunch of power settings. if the phone does come one...load up kaiser tweak and get in there to see if you can mess with the settings to fix this issue.

Well, speaking for those of us with the problem, the phone won't come on WITH the battery installed and the cable plugged in... I GUESS I could try it w/o the battery... would that even work normally?
I'm desperate.

key word desperate!! lol anything works when you're desperate...give it a try. if not then we'll move on to hard resetting and see where that leaves us.

This same thing happened to me a week ago. I hope you guys have your phones on contract from AT&T, because I took mine back to the store after 2 months of use (took great care of it, no drops etc.) and they put me in contact with customer support.
Great experience with support - they will ask you to take battery out, examine the battery contacts, ask if it was dropped or put in water, ask if you tried another battery and finally ask about hard reseting. Since the device doesn't even power on in this case, hard reset isn't an option.
The tech rep imediately told me it sounded like a hardware problem and shipped me a new phone overnight. They send you a reconditioned phone (it looks brand new) without a battery or stylus or back cover. You use your old battery, cover and stylus and send back your brick with the enclosed shipping label. As long as it gets back to them in 14 days and is deemed by them not to have been dropped or damaged, you don't get charged for the replacement device. Worked like a charm for me...but we'll see in a few months time if this same problem crops up again. Fingers crossed...
P.S. They will initially quote you $12 to upgrade to overnight shipping, but make sure to tell them that the phone is for business use and you need it quickly and they should upgrade the shipping for free. Worked for me!
By the way - I never flashed a different ROM on the original phone. (Stock AT&T ROM but soft reset before bloatware intallation) So don't think it has anything to do with flashing too many or the wrong ROM!

Red light.......
I called HTC and they said something got smoked inside.......I called warrenty dept. and they shipped me a replacement.......I think this is weird too.....oh well such as life.......

Did you have to ship the smoked one back?
Kind of a dumb question yes, but if no, poke around inside to see if you cant get it working again.

happened to me too. i'm pretty sure its a hardware issue.

This happened to me as well. I'm glad there is a thread to address the problem!
The one thing I noticed that is different about this new kaiser I have is that the battery is made by DynaPack, the battery in the kaiser that has this issues was a Samsung battery.
May this be the culprit?

Reboots after I remove the batter

What the heck is going on?
I'm pretty sure this has nothing to do with the ROM, because it did this with the factory ROM, Manila 2d and now WM6.5.
I turned the phone off, unplugged it, removed the battery. I put the battery back in, replace the cover and press the power button. Nothing happens. I plug the phone back in to the wall charger and put power, it turns on....for about 3 seconds then reboots and it would seem that it will do this for as long as I let it go. If I unplug the phone while this is going on, it will die.
The last time this happened, it took it about a day and a half to sort itself out. It almost seems like its a battery issue.
Any thoughts or ideas?

UPDATE!
I took the sim card out of the phone for a few seconds and the phone seems to be working now.... But its been up and running for about 20 minute now with no sings of acting up.

tried to charge the pda all night the light stayed orange and never turned green indicating full charge. tried hard reset and when it goes in to prepare rom it shuts off like dead battery. when i plug in the pda to charge battery and then turn on the phone it freezes on splash screen. if i turn on phone then plug in to charge it acts like i havn't pluged in charger. is it the pda or battery?

I am not 100% sure on this, but to me it sounds like the battery.. and that is a MUICH cheaper option to test out... unfortunatly you ahveto wait for shippng typicalyl unless you have a friend who has the same phone.. I got 2 backups and a stand alone charger now... The other option could be your USB port... I have not heard this specific problem with them.... but I am a PC tech and have seen very simmilar problems with laptops... Usually the first think to for is the power port... Just like out phone, if the device is not on a flat surface and such when it is plugging it, it tweaks the port and it eventualyl breaks... on laptops it is not uncommon that when plugged in, the LEF wil light up saying it is getting power to charge, but it enver charges the battery, and even sometimes can;t power up the full system.. .It sort of sounds like this is what you phone is doing as well.. .If that is the problem the stand alone charger would work (my son broke off his usb all together and now syncs via bluetooth and jsut changes batteries.. he has 3 himself as well) If you search online, you can usualyl find a kti with a battery or 2 and a charger/dockign station for under $20US total. Good luck!

tried bootloader and installed official att rom and never shut off. when it was finished with install same issues appeared. help

For anyone facing this issue I would not recommend wasting money on a new battery as this issue has been around with few users since the Kaiser "Tilt" first came out and I've never seen ANY reports that a new battery fixes this. People have bought new batteries, fully charged their battery from a docking station, tried their friends fully charged battery all with the same result. I had this power down issue a Looong time ago my first week in with the Kaiser and managed a fix and am using the same battery now. Although it seems the battery is not being fully charged it's important to leave it charging until you'd assume it's fully charged and get into bootloader mode and flash an official htc Tytn 2 rom. It should flash completely, and the fact that it does not die immediately as on normal boot indicates it is not the battery but the rom. It did take me the whole afternoon of Flashing, recharging and repeating before it finally kicked in. Also, from reading older posts, it seems most if not all users like myself fixed this by flashing the older official htc wm 6.0; worth a shot at least.

Yup, that is what I had to today (I hard reset, actually), with barely enough battery life to do this.
Then the bloody unit came up and was charging - amazing, really!
(Was using the official HTC 6.1 upgraded WindowsMobile OS)

here is my 2 cents....
I owned five Tilts, replaced four of them with warranty issues ... so i have faced this dilemma on at least two of them.
First see if the USB tongue is loose. To do this try to gently tap it with the stylus. If the tongue inside the USB port is loose then you will be facing rebooting and other issues and troubles in the future. The USB tongue gets used and jerked every time you connect your device to your PC or wired headset. If you are still under warranty and the USB connector tongue is loose I recommend returning the phone ( if you still can) and getting a replacement. There is no easy fix for a loose USB connection tongue as i have taken one apart and it is very difficult to repair or replace and very easy to mess it up further.
So, my advice to all Kaiser owners... be careful when plugging and unplugging your phones through the USB. Do it gently as the connectors are very fragile.
For those that have the above issues, I recommend using a separate battery charger tray, avoid plugging the USB as much as you can, and if you must, then administer extra care. The rebooting will stop if you plug the USB cable to the device and move it up and down a hair then holding steady. And most likely you will not get a full charge or even a partial charge. The biggest culprit to this problem is car chargers, and second, is inserting the stylus by mistake (when it is dark and hard to see) in the USB port instead of the Reset hole by accident.

Story of my brick

All started with the phone randomly turning off itself. Sometimes even when I got a call. It became more often in time, so I was looking for solution. Most of the people said to send back the phone, but I didn't want to bother, and also I bought it new from Ebay. Somebody said, that the new Cyanogen mod solves the problem, so I put it on the phone. Well, the mod was okay, but the phone still turned off sometimes. I didn't really bother until one time the phone was plugged on the car charger, and I was listening music from that(battery was around 70%). It turned off again, and when I tried to turn on, I couldn't.
I removed the battery, put it back, and I could turn on the phone for like 10 seconds, and it died again, and showed red led, like the battery is low. It was still on charger, but it didn't make a difference.
I got very angry, because I assumed that the replacement battery I bought a few months ago from ebay was faulty(1700mAh), so I got home, and put in the old 1100mAh battery from my drawer. It worked fine, and I even plugged back on the car charger, listened music, used gps, etc.
I got out of the car, and took the phone with me as well, and like 30min later I hear somebody calling me. I took the phone out, but it was off. Tried to turn on, but only saw the red light flashing, no answer. I realised, that it might not be the battery then! I got home, plugged on the charger, but as I expected, no reaction. I left the battery like that, and ordered a new 2200mAh branded one from ebay, while I was waiting for that the phone just sat on my table waiting. After 2 days of idle, I plugged in the usb charger to the pc, and the g1 on the other side, and it turned on! It started to charge the battery from 0%(the battery was 100% when I took out from the drawer), so I quickly wrote a text to a guy, and left it there to charge. 15 mins later I see the phone dead again. Next day the "superbattery" arrived, I was so happy, I put it in. But: no reaction at all! Tried all button combinations as well.
So here I am now, some people said it has short-circuit, and that discharged the battery(batteries are not extended in size, i bet it would work with an other g1), and I also read it can be the motherboard.
Any ideas what could cause the problem, and how can I replace it?
Warranty conditions: the phone was new from ebay, modded with cyanogen, and should be under T-mobile warranty. It was unlocked as well, and O2 simcard was used. I never had any contact with T-mobile whatsoever.
The phone doesn't have serial number on the white patch on the back(strange), that according to HTC warranty policy makes the warranty void. IMEI number cannot be checked, because phone doesn't turn on. I'm not sure if T-mo would help me, neither HTC. Please let me know if you have ANY idea how to fix the phone, or get a replacement, or convince T-mo or HTC to fix it!
All help is appreciated about everything!

You're not getting replies, because your options are limited. If you are handy, you could buy a trashed G1 with broken screen off ebay and replace your main circuit board. Otherwise, you will need to get stock firmware on the unit and attempt to return the phone, which seems unlikely without a serial number, as you say (sounds stolen to me?).

Help with input ! Please

ok so i know what im doing and pretty sure i know what happened hehe well my phone started acting up and no one could hear me on otherside so i flashed back to arhd 52 and it booted up fine i restored to original firmware for 52 everything was fine besides mic quality . so i blew in their and dug around with a paper clip in little hole next to usb port never stuck it in usb port. just tiny mic hole . Fixed it my phone was working perfectly
call quality and everything was tired so went to bed and figured id restore today. well when i woke up to my suprise my phone as blinking red with screen off power button just brought up a screen with empty battery symbol and lightning bolt in middle with red led flashing at top left. phone will not respond no bootloader nothing. i did get it to bootloader and recovery twrp a couple times but it just restarted both bootloader and recovery before i could do anything. im pretty sure my battery crapped out or i messed something up with the paper clip inside but i doubt that as i just put it in mic i think battery is DONE and im gonna have to get a new phone. pretty sad since when do batteries only last a year ? oh well got 70 days warranty left just didnt want to lose my stuff if you guys know how to fix this problem of phone not holding charge being able to do anything but show me blank battery and red flashing light. your help will be greatly appreciated. i can have replacement tuesday and have 14 days to send mine in but i would like to get my files off and apps if possible why do i have to have such bad luck lol i had to send this one in 3 times to get camera fixed just to have this happen ?
WHat do you guys think battery die ?

did you try plugging it into the charger? (you didnt mention that you tried charging it). Plug it in, wait 10 minutes and see if the red light goes on. If it does, leave it plugged in.
Since you cant do anything with it anyways, just let it sit on the charger for a couple of days to be honest. Ive heard of people having issues where their phone completely dies and then it randomly starts up again after a couple of days on the charger.
Also, did you happen to drop it when the issue occured?

didnt drop it. mic started making noise tried an older rom to see if it was the mic itself or hardware. it was mic. so i left phone alone left it on put on charger when i woke up flashing red light wouldnt boot. i have roms on their i can re flash im guessing something went wrong with the rom i flashed after i set phone down for night. or my other theory is when i was trying to get mic to work which i did i broke something lose inside that goes from usb to battery ? is that possible i did stick a paper clip in the mic hole only ? hope it wasnt me they might make me pay for that vs if battery crapped out i should get a free one as im under a year
so far after a day it will do nothing but flash red light and show empty battery
i am able to boot into bootloader or recovery for a second but it doesnt have enough power to flash a rom and it doesnt show battery percentage in recovery like it normally does i think it has had it will leave on charger a couple more days hopefully it comes back alive

i really dont see how sticking a paperclip in the mic hole would cause the battery issue, yea its possible you punctured the mic but it shouldnt effect battery in any way. Im guessing its just a coincidental issue, unless you somehow punctured the battery..but that seems unlikely.
Yea just leave the phone alone for a bit, and call up htc and see what theyre willing to do (price, how long itll take) so you have an idea of what you want to do next.
One thing i would try is holding the power and both volume buttons down while shining a bright light into the light sensor (on the top left of the front of the device)

Really Odd Issue

Alright, I noticed about 3-4 days ago that I was waking up in the morning to almost no charge gained on my phone. I figured my computer turned off or something and my phone just didn't get charged via the USB port. I've now realized that when using specific USB cords (Only one out of 5 that I have works without this issue at the moment), my phone charges for about 5 minutes and then goes into this weird mode where it displays the clock time as a screensaver sort of screen and it stops charging my phone WHILE being plugged in.
As soon as I unlock my phone, I see a steering wheel icon at the top left in my notifications that says my phone is in car mode. Before I can pull down to see what it is or go into the menu settings to see if I can disable it, it turns off and disables again. I went through my ROM toolbox and found no signs of "Car" or "Car Mode" applications installed since I remember seeing "Car" in most rom installations.
It's becoming very frustrating because most times, I plug in my USB cord and my phone begins to charge and then 2-3 minutes later it just stops and goes into that mode. Sometimes it's instant and sometimes it won't work at all. I don't think it's an internal phone problem though because I have a cheap USB cord I found in my closet that is flawless and doesn't bring me this issue.
What could this be? Is my HTC One on it's last legs or what? I don't have my upgrade for another year so I'm really hoping this isn't too serious. The USB cords I do own are in great condition and wouldn't all suddenly stop working at once, so I see no reason to blame those. If anyone is wondering, I'm using CyanogenMod 11 right now, but this is a fresh installation and previously was using a very stable ARHD 6.1 GPe ROM. I also don't think the rom's I'm using have anything to do with it.
I don't know much about this stuff so I'll just leave some other information if it's needed. I have the SuperCID thing done, my phone is rooted and my bootloader is unlocked obviously along with having S-Off. I'm also using TWRP's latest version.
Any help would be really, really appreciated...

Also, to add onto what I said about the screensaver/car mode:
When I unlock my phone while being plugged in and the car mode turns off, my phone doesn't go back to charging unless I un-plug the USB cord and re-plug it in. This is when it usually begins to stop charging seconds after putting it in.

It may be a kernel problem, try a different ROM.
Also try cleaning the USB port with compressed air.

Also try cleaning the USB port with compressed air.

I've been researching it and found a few similar issues and apparently there's no fixes for it. I'm more or less stuck with this for another year until my upgrade. There's a small fix for it but it's a pain in butt to remember:
I have to turn my HTC One off, plug it into the USB for charging and then turn it on and it'll charge correctly.
I've also noticed a major decline in battery life as well. I went from 78% to 71% in 10 minutes a bit ago. Really disappointing seeing as how I've already done so much to this phone I probably couldn't even sell it let alone have a conversation with HTC about it since I've killed any kind of warranty for it so badly.
Damn damn damn damn damn.

Well, if u still got warrany and the phone is working, u can still claim warranty by going back to full stock.

I've had the phone for over a year and I don't have warranty. Would there be a manufacturer warranty for this?

I guess this issue isn't fixable and I'm just screwed. Any suggestions how I could get a new phone without an upgrade for a good deal or something? God damn it.
