SHIITTTTT!!!! I am broke can I put somthing on the SD card. then do the update thing. Should I unplug is there 0% chance?
I don't know if that will work, I would say it will but I doubt it being that I think that the stock recovery checks the signatures of the zips? Im not sure tho. The same exact thing happened to me but I was able to sneak one from verizon by saying that my phone messed up from an update, and he swapped batteries trying to restore, then he gave up and left me the battery with it more than halfway charged. Lol im 17 and without money,just got lucky I know how ya feel. With a low battery no chance. But there is something if you're nifty with wires, ill post the link for ya

erasing 'userdata'...
Hi, since yesterday night (I always charge my phone at night) I experienced a weird battery issue. When I plugged off the charger the battery looked like it was still charging. I went in settings > system info > status and it showed "Charging (AC)" then "Not charging" (this two messages kept switching for 10 minutes or more). I also looked to mAh and it was like 5000+ mAh. My battery is the original Samsung 3.7V 2500mAh. I get this problem with both original AC charger and pc USB cable.
Yeah, I also tried wiping battery stats following the steps.
try cleaning the usb port.
I don't want to damage it.. how can I clean it safely?

remove the battery .. use a toothpik, clean cloth, pressurized air may help too.. nothing to be done forcefully.. u wont damage it.
Will try when I'll be at home. Thanks for your help mate.

In the image (sorry for italian language) it says overvoltage after a few seconds I plugged off the charger.
Add: My phone was plugged off, but in the stats tab it said that my phone was plugged in with AC.
so does it say changing even when the charger is not in?
Yes

I've never seen this anywhere, but apparently holding volume up and power at the same time initiates a screen recording mode. Why haven't I seen this mentioned.
It's been posted up before and even in a bunch of online articles. You need the SCR screen recording app in order for it to work though from what I've seen.
Oh. Just never saw it anywhere and have owned about 25 android devices in 4 years. Strange.

This isn't screenshot. This is screen recording. Not sure if its psx rom only thing or if its across all of kit kat ROMs.

It's a new feature that Google snuck into 4.4. It's been fairly well publicized at this point.

Not sure if its built into psx ROM only, haven't tried on other ROMs. Happened on accident.
Pretty sure its just a psx feature - on my N4 on Rastakat it did nothing, but now that I've flashes PSX on the 4 it works fine. That certainly snuck under the radar from the PSX devs

On most (all?) devices without a removable battery, holding power forces the device to reboot, seeing as you can't simply do a battery pull

Check the Desire C forums for installing drivers on anything on Windows 7 upwards, or if available use Windows XP
Have you tried to enter recovery/boot?
Hold Volume- and Power button and you should get some feedback (either it enters boot or nothing will show up)
If there's no response try without the battery in and plug in USB, even that I think should get some response, if not try key press and then plug into USB (plugging USB in first will try to charge battery immediately and ignore expresses)
LED doesn't really show up much even when charging, I think I've seen mine lit 2-3 times.

If there's no response trying to get any response (even just using No Battery, USB and power on) then it's probably damaged or bricked, take it back because it'll be the unit itself not the battery

I wouldn't even consider it unless you have the use of JTAG and a fair bit of programming/electronics knowledge and to be honest, if it's not at least lighting the screen OR vibrating when it boots up (if it does boot at all ) I'd stick with taking it back and getting your money back, it could cost you more fixing it than getting a working second hand unit
Ok thanks for your help, I'll have to try and take it back. Thanks

My tp was left uncharged for about a week and now I've got the dreaded white battery. I've tried everything. I cant get my tp to boot into download mode. It stays like that til it does, I plug it and try every button combo trying to boot back and just get white battery. Any feedback welcome. I'll pay $25 in amazon credit for something if someone wants to personally fix it. It's not worth it but I love my little touchpad.
