No Battery, stuck at tri-color screen

I was flashing my phone repeatedly last night. I've read the forums and have done about 4 successful flashes already. The problem is, I've found a WM6 rom for the Wizard that I wanted better than the ROM already inside my phone, and I proceeded to flash it. But I left the computer and phone by itself so that I could rest a bit (I've spent hours in front of the computer flashing my phone), and fell asleep. When I woke up, I noticed that the flashing failed, and it was at the tri-color screen. Then, it died on me. No battery, obviously, being stuck at the tri-color screen the whole night. Now, it doesn't charge or turn on. I know I just need a battery to run the phone. But where I'm from, batteries for the Cingular 8125 are rare, and I'm one of the few that has an 8125.
I don't know anyone who has a battery for the 8125, and there's nowhere to buy from here. Any recommendations?

First of all be sure that you haven't flashed a G4 ROM in a G3 device (or vice-versa) which would have made it a brick.
In case you haven't screwed up the bootloaders then look for the battery jump start thread that teaches how to revive a dead battery
good luck

First os all your Wizard is not a brick. To revive your battery try using a wall charger to charge you battery, or you can leave it attahed to a wall charger for some time and it should start charging after 10-15 mins (becoz one i got a dead battery and did the same) Once the battery is revived then flash it to a Official ROM, afterwards any custom ROMs or what so ever. I hope i helped. TC

i've the same problem!!! i leave the phone attached the whole night to the charger...but it was in bootmode, so it doesn't charge!!! it hasn't the power to flash my phone...when it arrives to the 85% (when the phone write into the flash memory) it reboots.....what must i do? i tried to jump start...with a 12v adapter...but nothing....

It won't charge in Bootloaders,as it doesn't provide any charging circuit .The phone must have and boot up to a working OS (Windows) to start charging,only then it has a charging circuit.
Try to get a fully charged batter ,may be borrow it from a friend or try to charge your battery with friends phone,flash a rom and only it'll start to charge.

i know....but...i have not a friend with a ppc like mine!!!! and even if i'll buy a new battery....how can i charge it????? a friend of mine has a qtek 9000....but the battery is different from mine.......

No need to buy a battery i say you use a External Battery Charger. Because even buying it would be cheaper then the battery itself and would help you in future too. I hope i helped. TC

Thanks

Thanks, dude. I never even tried charging it with the wall charger. There seems to be other people that have the same problem as I do. Now my phone is up at the tri-color screen, and I'm charging it, then Ill start flashing again. Thanks again!

No Problem but now remember if you find ppl with same problem (on the forum) dont forget to guide them to this Thread. And no need for the thanks. TC

@ianestradalives's as zabardast_1's has said, your phone WILL NOT CHARGE unless windows Boots. Either buy a new battery or find someone with the same phone or an Orbit(as they use the same battery) also if you buy a new battery it generally arrives with enough charge to use for flashing(It did for me anyway). The only other way to do it would be to buy a dock with a second battery charging slot. Using the wall charger wont do anything except stop it from restarting ,while its plugged in.
@XDA2_haseeb why point people who have the same problem to this thread, if the answer you have given is incorrect?

Dude, sorry to disappoint you, but his advice was correct. My phone is now up and running, and it has NBD 9.2. The advice he has given is correct. It works.

Ok,was your phone in Bootloaders (muliticolor screen) or with a working OS installed on it when you charged with a wall charger ?

That's exactly what was i was about to ask Zabardast_1
As there is no way he could charge his phone while it is in bootloader mode. He either had battery power already in it and messed up the flash or you have just been lucky when you took the battery out of the unit and reinserted it and there was enough power left to flash

In bootloader screen. If you were flashing a rom and it failed, you usually end up in the tri-color (aka "Bootloader") screen. Do what haseeb said (like I did) and plug your wizard to a wall charger and wait for a few minutes. When I plugged mine, it immediately lit up. Good hunting!

Nope. I'm sure the battery was drained. The other night, my phone was in the bootloader screen THE WHOLE NIGHT. And yesterday, I tried reflashing, but it won't start anymore because of - obviously - no battery power.
IF you don't believe me, fail a flash and drain the battery. Then plug it into the wall. It really works.

scousemartin
YUP! thats very true.
The question here is 'How did he charge in Bootloaders with a wall charger',it has to have a working OS on it to start the charging circuit,which isn't present while in Bootloaders.
Flashing is a separate issue.

it will light up as it has power but it WONT CHARGE IT. You were LUCKY that's all and you had power in your battery. You just never realised it. If you want to prove us wrong let the battery go low and then try your revival attempt again. I guarantee you will be buying another battery or charging it somewhere else

also i have been through this personally with my xda mini-s and the only remedy was to buy another battery (or recharge it). You could leave your phone connected to the wall charger for a week and it wont make a blind bit of difference to the battery level. I know because i tried.
Anyway glad you got it sorted ,but the solution to your problem was not charging the phone. Thats all i have to say on this matter now

It did get sorted. But I am really sure about the battery thing. I guess this is an anomaly. Besides, the XDA is different from a Wizard.

lol the xda mini-s is exactly the same device a 8125 is, they re both wizards

Vario is *suddenly* dead! I didn't upgrade anything.

Hi,
Suddenly my Vario died. I was not upgrading anything at all. I was just using it or maybe I was charging it during this time. Now I can't turn it on and when I connect the USB cable with power nothing happens. Not even the charging LED lights up.
Any ideas?

Did your battery completely die? Where you installing/and or modifying anything on the device? We needs some more info brother!

Battery: maybe it did died, as I have not been using the phone for a while (couple of months).
No, I didn't do even any software installation. Just normal usage. I don't remember if I was charging it while it died or not.

Well, sounds to me like your battery may just be dead, not regular dead mind you, but drained. Try this first, connect your Wizard to either the original wall charger that came with it, and let it charge for a while, or find another miniUSB charger(like from another phone or bluetooth headset or the like) with AT LEAST 1A of OUTPUT. Anything less will not be able to charge the battery. Try that first, then let me know what happens!

HELP My phone doesnt work-Battery dried out during ROM installation

During installation of ROM update, my phone stopped and it doesn't start.
I think it is because of battery.
There wasnt enough battery and i think it dried out.
Now I know that it had to have at least 50% of charge but it is too late for that. (i had stg like 40% of charge)
Is there any way to charge it and install new ROM?
I tried to charge it during the night and nothing happened.
also I removed the battery during one day and I tried charge it again and it didnt work either.
please help.
Thanks

if it wont even start? i dont know, you tried get into bootloader? hard reset?

From what I remember was that if you're lesser than 50% of battery it won't let you continue the flashing. So I'm quite positive that it is not battery issue.
I tried once flashing at 48% and it says my battery is less than 50%.

find a friend who has a fully charged blackstone battery, borrow this, and try do a hard reset.

If you don't have a friend with a Blackstone then head for a Phone shop (that sell them) and ask if you can just use the battery from their DEMO model for a few minutes. Pop it in and try a hard reset. At least you will n=know if you have a dead battery or not.

You don't need to borrow someone elses battery. Take out battery and connect device to charger without battery. Phone should still turn on, enter bootloader, hard reset etc. If you cannot do any of this then its not a battery issue

Are you able to do anything with phone? When you connect device to charger with/without battery does led light come on? Does phone make any sounds as if turning on/booting up but screen is just black?
If you are unable to do anything with device, try taking battery out and leaving device overnight, then re-insert it before trying to turn it on again.

i have already tried taking battery out and leaving for 2 days. it didnt work either.
i think i needto find out how to install bios to my phone.
i dont know if there is a bios for phones.
is it possible to install stg / bios when we cannot get into bootloader or do a hard reset ?

There's no BIOS on the phone per say, there's a comparable portion of firmware, but normally it can't be upgraded/replaced if the phone is not booting.
Your best bet is to send it to repairs, make up a reason why it failed (e.g. stopped working unexpectedly, never turned on after removing the battery) and hope they will fix/replace it under warranty terms.
If you are into having some intimate relationship with your phone, look around for Blackstone JTAG.

Completely dead battery

I know that it has been said that "if your touchpad completely dies, you must have the OEM charger to start it back up". At first this seems true. . .However! I would like to report that twice now, when it was completely dead and displaying the "plug in the original charger for reliable charging or die because im a juice nazi", I was able after about 4 hours of just leaving it alone plugged into a 1amp phone charger, to get it to charge up and boot. This may have already been discovered but I couldn't find mention of it. Just wanted to give hope to someone that might have given up on this.

So when you connect 1 amp phone charger, does the TP says to connect the original charger? Even if it says to connect the original charger, and leaving it for 4 hours the TP charged is that right???
My problem is when I connect to cell phone charger, it says to connect original charger.
When I connect original charger, the TP stays at 0% even after connecting the charger overnight. I dont know what is the problem? is it charger, is it battery or is it TP..

The message will be displayed but it is gradually charging in the background. When it gets enough juice, it will start up and charge faster. In your case it sounds like either your port or battery are damaged somehow. Possibly the charging circuitry but that is unlikely. If you don't have an original charger or touchstone, then your options are limited. They aren't very expensive on ebay though. I would let it charge on a good 1 amp charger for a few days and see what happens then. Mine did the "soft brick" crap once where it was completely unresponsive and ran completely dead and i just charged it for 4 days and forgot about it and when i remembered it, it had powered on and booted. TPs are funny devices. Expect anything and report it if you don't mind. Maybe we can get this sorted out.

Thanks for prompt response..
I have original wall charger, and got a new cable from ebay. So I am hoping its equivalent to original charger. How can I debug if the port or battery is damaged.. any idea?
I left it on charge overnight yesterday. It was at 0, in the morning.. I left it on charge today before coming to office. i am expecting it to be at 0, when I go home.. When its connected to charger, its working normally (with 0 battery), but as soon as i remove from charger, it will shutdown..

Morning, when I was charging,
the battery monitor widget app showing Battery flow as "-600mA". I think this should be +ve while charging. the same app was showing status as "Charging AC plugged". I will try to charge my phone with the same cable and charger, if the phone shows +ve current flow, then, its deffinetly should be problem with the battery or touchpad right..
I wil test it in the evening.. and if its problem with battery or touchpad.. i will try to clean the TP and will try again.. Lets see how it goes

Ok so you have the original charger, great! And it boots into android/webos correct? It sounds like your A6 firmware might have crapped out or whatever it does to cause battery issues. Probably not bad battery if this happened rather suddenly, and its not a bad port if its booting and running while plugged, even if its not charging. . .so go here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2756314
and read it carefully! With this tool, you can do some really cool stuff including re-flashing the A6 battery monitor/control chip. It can (but might not) fix issues like this. Give it a try with a good cable and let me know what happens. Good luck!

I rebooted to webOS, and TP charged normally.. now i updated to CM11, all good as of now.. Thanks for helping me..
only bad part is i disassembled, before booting to webOS

Aw dude....well hey it happens to the best of us lol. Now u know a lot more about ur tablet and i would still recommend reflashing the A6 and removing webos if u dont use it. Tptoolbox can also be "installed" by renaming the boot image .bin file to uImage.TPtoolbox and placing it in /boot on your android partition. This allows moboot to see it. Off topic i know but i thought you might be interested. Best of luck with the re-assembly!

Fixed my Touchpad!
I had the same issue and just wanted to report what worked for me. My touchpad wasn't responding to any button pressing combos and even after sitting on the charger for two days, didn't want to turn on. After some google searching I found my Touchpad might be so dead that the charging circuity might not want to charge the battery and all the fixes were telling me to take apart the Touchpad and charge the battery directly. That's not something I really wanted to do. Then another person suggested to charge the Touchpad with a lower amp charger, so I plugged the Touchpad into an iPhone charger for about an hour. I came back, held the power button and home button - nothing. Tried power, volume up, and home - nothing. But then I held the power button and hit the home button ~10 times and then... the home button started blinking left and right. YES! I took the Touchpad and put it on the original charger, 15 minutes later it had the Low Battery Screen and another 15 minutes later, Cyanogenmod was booting.

I need help. When I try to transfer the Android files to the HP TouchPad using TPtoolbox, Windows says that there is an F drive that I have to format before I use it. In the tutorials, a drive labeled HP TOUCHPAD or something like that shows in Windows, and you can put the Android files inside of the ttinstall folder. Should I format the drive and if so, what format?

Oh sorry, I posted to the wrong thread.

Bricked Z3C, help :(

Hey guys, i had some serious trouble here. My Z3C is now bricked (I'm not sure whether it's softbricked or hardbricked). The Rom is stock. I plugged the charger (magnetic) from 5pm and I went out for some works, and 3 hours late I returned home and found out that my device couldn't turn on. I've tried many ways like combo VL+ and Power, or Reset Button, but useless. Can you help me with this, thank you so much.

does your pc recognize the phone when you plug it in w/ usb?
if not, then the phone is most likely dead and your best bet is to take it back to the store for a repair/replacement

well i've brought it to the store already. They connected it to PC, then the Sony/Xperia logo appeared on the phone, but the device still .... I don't understand, I used the stock ROM, no root, no bootloader,... but this brick problem still happened. And after scavenging the internet for solution, I found out that there were many users had this problem like I did.
hopefully my device will be fixed without being teardown or the waterproof ability will become weak.

Well my phone is now awake, after a electrical stimulus process. The technician said my device's power was weak. Maybe I should buy a Z2a to use along with my Z3C, well, for precaution purpose.
And I used the stock rom all the time, and I still didn't understand what've caused this problem. But thanks for your great help man. I am really appreciate your support.

I'm really curious, what magnetic cable were you using when this happened?
Was it some cheap magnetic cable or Magnector X or some other?

what the heck is "electrical stimulus process"?

mine gone dead just after 2 weeks of usage. the service center mentioned that it was the motherboard and battery failure. so i guess the best part of the phone is the lcd, huh?

What he probably meant is: if your battery is completely drained so that the circuit of the phone does not even recognize the battery anymore as to allow/start charging, it often helps when you connect the battery for a short time (few seconds) directly (without the circuit in between) to a power source/charger. This bings it back to life and charging it in a controlled manner via the phone charging circuit is possible again.

Well, in my case, my Z3C battery wasn't completely drained. I charged it when it was 17%, then I went out for about 3-4 hrs, and when I came home, the problem happened.
The store technicians figured out that my battery was hibernate, so they used high voltage electric to charged it, then it came back to life, just like we use electric shock method to save people.

Does it make any difference what is the charger?

well, I have just had the exactly the same problem.
And I can tell the magnetic charger cause this. I plug in with 65% battery left ( I charge it overnight as a habit) and In a morning it's completely dead ( like anyone who has this problem ). I was so panic ...
It could be the magnetic charge draw the juice out of the battery and make it completely drained instead of pump power to the battery, I guess.
can you please specify how to bring it back to life please !! thank you !!!!
