Charging P1000 when off - shows yellow triangle with '"!" with flashing thermometer

Charging P1000 when off - shows yellow triangle with '"!" with flashing thermometer
Hi All,
After opening my Galaxy tab P1000 to perform a procedure
from a thread in this forum (I will explain the procedure in the end) and closing it back up again.
I have trouble charging my tab.
Charging when off - shows yellow triangle with '"!" with flashing thermometer and doesn't actually perform charging more than
a very low percentage.
Charging when on - doesn't charge more than the current percentage.

I reopened it and disassembled it and reassembeled it and then it worked again (charger is not faulty) and let me charge until ~40%
and then i got the same behavior as above.
sometimes just pluging and unpluging the tab several times let me have it charging normally but after some time it reverted back to the problem...
The android works and boots but I still have trouble charging.
The phone is not hot or cold. I think I might have done something with the temp sensor when assembling it back again.
Can you please help me with this ? does anyone know where that sensor is ?
Attaching a pic of the problem screen.
The procedure I did was on account of a faulty internal memory module (I removed it from the motherboard so that it uses a partition on
my external sd card as the main internal memory).
Thanks in advance
Still haven't found a solution for this :crying:
I ordered a new battery from ebay after some posts said this might indicate a bad battery - the new one gives me the same temperature problem indication.
I wish some one knew what it means and how i can correct it.
What i did that started showing this error was :
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1877585&page=9

A lot of times this is the case. Sometimes you may just have too much lint build up where charging port is on phone. Simply get something like a needle or paper clip and lightly dig some of the lint out. Worked for me with my galaxy s4. Hope this helps

Can anyone at least suggest a way i can charge the battery without it charging through the kindle? If i can power it up then I should be able to follow instructions on how to re install the OS

Okay, well if you can figure out how to bypass the port and charge the battery directly then try that. If it boots up, how is it not charging? second and last question, do you own a factory cable?
please quote me so I get the notification of your reply.

Hey, the only way I think I can charge the battery is by removing it from the device and chopping up an old USB cable and putting the two wires directly into the battery. If watched numerous videos on YouTube. And I have a factory cable I made for a different Kindle. The Kindle won't do n e thing. If I plug the normal charger in the underside of the Kindle gets warm but that's about it. No flashing lights, no charge icon on screen. Thank you for you're reply.

P20 Pro stuck in boot loop, refuses to charge

Hello,
Today I noticed my phone had died earlier than usual, so I went to plug it in and charge it.
The green bolt and circle appear to let me know a charge is commencing. That was followed by the unexpected disappearance of that screen and the Huawei logo and "Powered by Android" text appearing. Not a usual procedure. Usually, the phone would show a percentage and a circle forming around it as the charge grows.
The moment I unplug the phone, it instantaneously dies. There is no perceptible delay. Thus, I can only attempt to enter recovery mode or fastboot mode when connected to a power source. It does not seem to make a difference if the power source is a regular PC 5V USB port, a charging port or the original AC adapter and cable. The only perceptible difference is that whenever it shows the Huawei logo, it reboots quicker if connected to PC.
If left alone for an hour+ the phone does not go out of this boot loop state. I have tried holding the power button, holding the power button and volume up procedure and holding the power button and volume down procedure.
The only reaction I get is when plugged to PC and trying to enter fastboot. It briefly flashes a screen that one cannot read for the milliseconds it is shown:

The black you see above is an artifact from a video recording I did, from which I took out this frame. To the human eye, the entire screen seems to light up and go out immediately after.
Here is a video of how the phone acts if I hold down only the volume down button while connected to the PC via USB. The second item in the post is the screenshot of what is visible for a few milliseconds:

I cannot attach the video.

Samsung Galazy A21 SM-A215U WONT POWER ON

I have a relative that has a A21 that all of a sudden wouldnt power up, they brought it in to the cellular provider and was told they needed a new battery.
A new battery was installed but this did not correct the issue.
Currently new battery installed, but no signs of life when pressing power button, and also no signs of life if plugged into usb charger.
Where can I start to troubleshoot. Im pretty proficient with troubleshooting as well as soldering. Is anyone out there that can help me get this going again?
All I need to get is the info off of the phone, picture, audio messages etc. there are some messages from siblings on it that have passed away, so Im doing everything I can to try to retrieve any of hte info retained on the phone.
The phone is currently mostly disassembled, I was trying to just test the power button to see if that was the issue, but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Power port pcb maybe, replace.
Check all ribbon cables, inspect and make sure they are properly installed and no bent pins.
Check battery connection. Is the battery good?
Otherwise a mobo failure may be the cause.
Did it get wet? Dropped? How did the failure start?

Ok, Is there a good resource for diagrams/schematics somewhere that I can reference? I have checked and the battery seems to be good, showing around 3.8v
It is strange because it doesnt look like it got wet at all, and it was not dropped, it's in otherwise excellent physical condition.
Just stopped turning on.
