I dont know if there is any kind of help if the phone wont power on. you can try to power it on in safe mode by holding the vol+ and power buttons, but if the battery really is dead all i can say is there is a trip to the sprint store in your future. Good luck

its weird because the phone will stay on when i got to fastboot mode but as soon as i reboot to system it will say 0 percent and it will shut off

looks like it's time for a ruu

Back to stock for you.. It's always fun to start over.

Can you be a little more specific as to what you've tried that's not letting it charge at all?
Unless you guys were messing with fast charge or something's seriously wrong with the CM10.1 kernel/you made an error while flashing, you really shouldn't be able to disable your device from charging, so much as just mess up how your OS is measuring charge...do you not see the notification light?

Fast charge is a kernel option that's included as a quick toggle/option in a lot of custom ROMs. It doesn't necessarily mean your phone will charge any faster-- it usually disables a phone's USB functionality so that it charges about as fast on USB as it does on AC (not really, but that's a good enough working explanation).
Have yo ujust let the phone sit for a while before trying to restart? If so, and you'r estill having trouble, can you get into fastboot or a recovery?
This should also probably be in the Q&A section, by the way-- you're more likely ot get a response there.

Then I'd suggest you post in the Q&A/troubleshooting forums, or the dedicated thread for the ROM you downloaded. At this point, it's probably time to look into something a little more complex than what I (or others) should be posting in this particular forum.

omfg...what did you do?!?!?

[Q] N1 suddenly dead

Hi,
I have a rooted N1 and has suddenly dead.
The device was fully charged and powered off after half an hour.
I pulled the baterry and tried any button combinations, tried to charge even through USB. The device doesn't boot up, it doesn't start and I can't see the google logo, the charging LED doesn't lights up either.
Is my mobile bricked?
How has the modible been working for months after flashing the ROM and stop working?
Thank you.
Maybe the phone bricked... Or something in the phone broke. Try the reset combination again and try leaving it out of battery or power cable for some minutes
Hope I helped

Hi,
The phone is roughly 4 years old and I haven't had any issue with its battery. In fact, I already have another phone and its battery lasts much less than the N1's. The battery was charged 30 minutes before the mobile dead.
I didn't know the mobile could get bricked even it works for so long time.
Thank you.

You can try to see if your battery is still alive / if your phone's display is working . I found a thread where the guy did a lot of stuff to his phone to cause the problem. I presume your phone was not subjected to any damage recently?

Thank you, I've already checked that post.
The device doesn't power on nor the charging LED lights. I haven't made any change (major nor minor) to the phone before it stopped working. No app installed in the las weeks, no SO upgrade, not a single change has been made.
Thank you again.
Only thing is try another battery like mentioned. It's electronic, sometimes it just die.

It's hard to find other guy with the same phone model. It's clera that N1 was a bad business for Google.
I tried another battery and it worked out.
What I really can't understand how people say that my phone could be bricked if it doesn't boot up and the charging LED doesn¡t light, is that possible?, how could I unbrick my phone whether I can't boot it up?
I'm sorry about my ignorance in the mobile phone's world?

Plug it in using the stock charger and just leave it over night. Also I believe there is a guide under general or android development that will help this.
But what I usually do when this happens is leave it on the charger until it comes back to life.

Leave it charging on the stock charger (or a touchstone, but preferably the stock charger) at least overnight, if not a bit longer, and then follow this guide: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1426244
Read the whole guide, it's long but you'll get a lot of information out of it. If you're having problems with novaterm, there's a good work around on page 12.

That's why you should leave it plugged in at least overnight, if not longer, on the stock charger. If you try to charge it off the computer it won't work. The computer's usb port doesn't put out enough juice to charge the tablet.
Once you have let it charge on the stock charger for a long time, and the tablet is off, press power and volume up simultaneously. That will get you into usb mode, which is what you want to do. Once there put the commands in one by one and let them execute. Answer yes to the questions at the start. Again, if you have problems with novaterm, there's a good work around on page 12. Read the whole thread, it's full of good information.

Leave it charging, preferably on the stock charger, if not on a touchstone. If you can't get it charged, your battery might have gone bad. But keep trying to get it charged.

i cant get the bios to start from my usb for some reason.
I got it working after running tpdebrick!
Hi guys,
I think Im in a similar situation. Ive had the HP Touchpad a while now, and Ive had this happen to me once before... where it wont turn on. However after leaving it a while to charge (like overnight) it came back to life. However Im getting nothing currently. Ive tried everything, leaving it on charge for a day, tried all the combo buttons, nowt!!!
1) How long should I leave it on charge? More than a day, like 2x days constantly plugged in?? Is there a risk the device could blow up if battery is bad, or does it have a surge/protection to prevent this??
Nothing comes up on the screen, no symbols or writing, and no light on the home button. Before it died it was running a triple boot of WebOS, Android 4.4.4 and Linux. I dont really want to format it if I can help it...
I have the original wall charger, but not the original usb cable. Ive tried a couple of different charges as well as the official, as I heard someone say trickle charge it too... But so far, nowt....
How long does it take to come back to life??
Thanks, Lister

My D3 died! :(

:crying:
Opened bike race when the screen froze while opening the game (dark screen).
Pulled the battery but when I boot the screen goes on after 3 secs, stays on for 2 secs then goes into dim mode (i can see it's still on).
However my phone doesn't boot since I don't get any whatsapp messages. Normally it should boot to SIM screen but other apps should run.
X+power or M+power doesn't change much.
I'm guessing mobo/cpu fail.... any ideas?
:crying:
edit: It turns on when I put in the charger without battery! Dead battery?
If you put the battery flat on a table does in spin well. Batteries bulge when they are done. The better the spin the worse it is. It's odd the behaviour that can happen with a end of life battery

Well now I'm not so sure what it is.
When I put the cable in without battery the M logo appeared and then the charge screen with a ? in the battery (because there was none)
Then I put the battery in and it started charging.
After a while I tried to turn it on but same problem - just a black screen when power it, no logo whatsoever.
Now I can't get it to work without battery either...
edit: I don't think it can be the battery, because the screen stays on (it has power apparently) and it doens't work with cable connected either
But I also don't see it being the screen as it never vibrates like it does when you boot it.
How did it just show the charge screen before and now it doesn't??
I made a vid of what happens when I power it:

The Droid 3 and Bionic are similar phones, and it turns out that the Bionic will not boot up without a battery - it will hang at the Moto logo even if plugged in. See this thread at androidforums.com: http://androidforums.com/motorola-d...via-adb-unable-boot-up-phone.html#post5463741
So, it may be that you just need a good battery pack in order to get to Recovery/Bootloader/Fastboot etc. if the phone will not start or start to Safestrap.

When I put it to charge my battery shows 0% and charging. When I go to Safestrap-after several attempts-, battery shows 99% or sometimes 80%.

I tried the stock cable that came with my phone (USB) but nothing happens. Screen doesn't even go on.
The light next to the microUSB does go on.
But my phone has never booted with USB (0.5A). When my battery was 0% I always needed a socket charger because it wouldn't go on and charge with USB
When I then insert battery and try again with stock cable same happens as in the video

I'm gonna try my spare battery (original battery) tomorrow. It that doesn't work it must be hardware related because I haven't flashed or done anything to it so it's not softbricked or something.
edit: it team blackhat do send to europe? How would this be different from trying another (working) battery?
Try cutting a USB cable open, hook the red wire to the + of the battery and - to the black and let it charge that way. Also, do you have any MicroUSB charger? I have one for a BB Bold I used to have that delivers I think 1.25A and it could charge my phone from dead (obviously not now with the flex cable having a rip in it).

The little light next to the USB port is the 'It's still alive" light that Moto put in when the battery is completely dead. It's to let you know that the phone *is* charging, just not high enough to boot the phone (i.e. when you let the battery completely die).
WHY they did not make it a standard charging light (like the D1 and D2) I don't know, but that's the only time it comes on. A quick flicker on USB plugin, or when the battery is dead. The light goes out when it gets enough power to boot up.

Well, it's not charging because there's no battery , the light it still on
I really dont see how its the battery because when I put it in without cable the screen turns on and stays on for as long as I keep the battery in. So it HAS power. Today I'm getting my spare battery and we'll see I guess..... don't have my hopes up

[Q] HTC Vivid won't charge or turn on

As the title says, my HTC Vivid won't turn on, charge or anything. The orange light that says it's charging doesn't turn on, buttons don't vibrate or anything. It shouldn't be bricked because I haven't done anything to brick it. I was using Xbox Smartglass on it, I locked the phone and went back to my game, about 15 minutes later I tried to unlock it and it did nothing. The battery shouldn't have been dead because I charged it the night before. Any suggestions or help please?

LOL The reason I got a Vivid is because he gave it to me. Sadly, I was hoping there would be a technical solution instead of trying a new battery. I've got one ordered though. :/
Some have bad batteries.
Mine started doing the same thing. For a while I thought the battery life on Vivid was horrible compared to the Aria I had at the time. Then it progressed and one day finally quit completely and would not take a charge from any charger I had. So, being a techhead I decided to probe the battery with a multimeter and it showed very little voltage, so low I guess the charger wouldn't even recognize or try to charge it.
So what I did was take a battery charger I had for a walkie talkie radio and touched the leads to the battery for 3-5 seconds or so, put battery back in phone and it would then charge. I did this a few times until I could get to ATT store and the guy ordered a new one through warranty. Haven't had a problem with the Vivid since.
Same Problem
Last night I pulled my battery at 21% after shutting the phone off to clear the memory. I put the battery back in and put it on the charger, I tried to turn the phone on and nothing. It is not showing that it is charging. I have four batteries for this phone and none of them will turn on the phone. I am at a loss here. The phone was working fine until i shut it down and removed the battery. Any ideas on what is causing this or any way to force it to turn on.

That sounds like a royal pain.
Could it be the changer or its USB cable? Work some contact cleaner into the power button?
I'm having this same issue. I'm not sure if it's the battery, since the phone boots to bootloader just fine. But the battery won't charge when the phone is off (red light comes on for a second, then quits) and I can't get past the HTC screen booting to ROM or recovery. Where is a good place to buy a battery?
Even if the power button was bad the phone should still charge a battery. I have a charger that will charge the batteries without the phone so I know the batteries are charged. I have several different chargers and none of them will show the phone charging. I even tried connecting it to my computer. The phone is dead, I guess I am going to have to crack it open and see if anything has come loose inside. I really like this phone and am going to hate loosing it. I paid a lot for this phone. That shinny penny I paid to get this phone was my favorite.
Have you tried plugging the phone USB into a desktop and using that to try rebooting the phone into bootloader or recovery?
Hasoon2000's Vivid All-In-One Toolkit in the dev section can do that pretty simply. i used an earlier version of that to unlock the phone a year and a half ago.
i don't remember if the phone has to have debugging turned on for the desktop to feed it commands.
Even if this works i dunno whatall it'll prove.
i like this phone too a lot, and am sorry yours seem to be having hardware problems.

The phone does not turn on at all so getting to the bootloader is impossible. It does nothing. Does not even charge a battery. .

That's the definition of a bricked phone, was what i meant. No screen, no led, no button function, no sign of life, and from no explicable cause.
Android phones don't have real on-off switches that directly disconnects the phone from power. Its failure to manifest signs of life doesn't absolutely indicate irreversible hardware failure. There's a bit of a chance it's firmware.
Aside from the power button, Android phones can be controlled thru the USB port.
I took your advise and plugged the phone into the computer and left it over night. This morning I rebooted the computer and the phone screen lit up. I got all excited and tried to use adb to reboot into bootloader, Of course the phone was not found. I took the phone off the cord and the screen shut off. I pushed the power button and the screen lit up. Let go of the power button and the screen goes off. I tried another usb cord and now the screen no longer lites up. Maybe there is hope for this phone.
If the screen lights up like that... there is power to it...
Sounds like you have dirt in your power button... or the button isn't making contact...
Time to disassemble and check the power button...

Yeah, that part where the phone was seen by the desktop, and then not, can have something to do with the Windows drivers. Most of the folks on these forums know what's with this stuff better than me; i usually have to tell windows to stop the hardware, disconnect and reconnect the phone USB and start the connection up again, every time before i do one set of commands, like put the phone into bootloader and download a kernel image into it.
There's a Vivid unbricking project over in the dev subforum, you must've seen that. Whether or not you get your phone working again, i hope it'll be a productive journey for you.
i was perfectly happy just messing with apps until i bricked my tablet; that got me into all this device unlocking and rom burning and fun stuff. It's too bad the Vivid isn't simpler to hack.
my phone cant boot to desktop after i flash the kanel
my phone cant boot to desktop after i flash the kanel please can you help me
9 times out of 10, if the phone will not turn on at all it is the battery. For some reason, the Vivid will occasionally stop seeing the battery. I have fixed this on mine when that happened by using an external charger. That worked because my battery was actually OK, the Vivid just wouldn't charge it or even see it. Once it was charged it was fine. If your battery really is dead (sounds like it might be the case), get a new battery. There is a 2000 mHr battery on Amazon that is not too much worse than the original (when new).
I had the same issue once, it turns out that I fixed it using a external charger

[Q] HTC One won't turn on or charge

HTC One won't charge or turn on. I was just sitting around setting up my new computer, and I checked my phone and it was at 1%. I figured I could just let it run out because I wasn't using it. Later, when I went to charge it, I noticed that no LED light was showing up when I tried to charge it. I tried plugging it into the computer, and the computer would make the sounds it makes when a USB is plugged in. When I tried turning it on from there, the computer sounds went back and forth with several seconds in between each beep. There was still no LED light, and I have tried to use the "volume button- power button" booting method but it hasn't worked. I also tried charging it overnight and when I got up in the morning there was still no LED light and nothing else was working. The phone is not rooted, but it did have water damage over a month ago. I put the phone into DampRid for a few nights and my phone was back to normal. I have not encountered any other problems since then, and now my phone will not boot. Any suggestions? Anything I can do?

The only thin that comes to my mind is to change the wall charger or the USB itself and see if they're broken or whatever else....

I tried that and the charger works on other devices. The power outlet is working, and 3 other Micro-USB chargers aren't working on the phone.

Ok, then this is clearly an HW issue...

Leave it plugged in for at least a day. I've seen all sorts of batteries magically come back to life after being fully discharged

Your pins connection may be broken and they only get energy when the charger is plugged in a particular way, I don't know what to think about...

I decided to put the phone back into the DampRid to see if there was any excess that was left inside of the phone. I pulled it out just before and and saw that I left a little bit in there so I'll leave it in there for a few days. Then, I'm going to try plugging the charger in in different ways and see what happens. Im also gonna try plugging it in for a whole day and see what happens.

UPDATE: It works! I put it in some DampRid for a day and it seemed to do the trick. I plugged in my phone, saw the red LED light come on, and now it is working.

I would suggest waiting for a day or two. Let your device cool down and take it out of it's case if it has one. My HTC One was fine after I let it take a break for a day. I put it in DampRid, but letting it cool down for a day really helped. Letting your battery die is something you should NEVER do because it just happened again to me. I'm going to let it rest for a day and let you know what happens. Hopefully it works.
