So my phone turned off from being out of battery and now it won't charge. I was able to power it up again for a few minutes and it was not charging and there was some error that said something like "Phone won't charge, please use stock charger". What do?
Update: I charged it overnight while off and it was able to charge back to 100%. However, it is still unable to charge while it is on or off (for a short amount of time plugged in at least). Not sure if letting it sit for hours like when I charged it overnight would work.

Just keep it plugged to the charger. Some time when the battery is really dead, it takes a while for it to get charge and turn on the device. Try it. If it still doesn't work, send it in.

Plug it in using the charger and cord that came with it. Leave it plugged in for a hour. Orange LED will come on eventually well hopefully.
Don't calibrate the battery again.

Use different cables and chargers! Does it charge overnight?

I have a nook color 1.1 autonootered with I think autonooter 3.0. I left it sleeping for a few days. I know get a message telling me that the battery is too low to power on. Please wait 15 minutes and try again.
Well its been plugged in for over 2 hours now using the wall charger and I'm still getting this message. I tried searching for this issue but I didn't find anything usefull. (I haven't mastered getting a relevant search using the xda app)
Any help in fixing this is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Are you using the charger that came with the Nook? If so did the nook led on the cord light up?
I am having battery problems aswell. I have read several other posts about people having battery issues. When i plug my nook in it charges,however when the screen turns off it stops charging it. The only way for me to charge it is to keep my screen on always... devs could you all confirm it is a software issue?

I'm at work currently all I have on me is my phone charger. I will have to try the charger it came with when I get home. I honestly just wish the screen would stay black. It seems kinda counter productive that the screen is on nonstop telling me the battery is to low. Lol. I really hope it isn't bricked.
Has anyone heard of bricking these in this way?

The Nook charger is the only one that charged mine. I tried a kindle charger and and my phone charger and they didn't work.
Thanks for the info. Even though I'm not happy about having to have another charger laying around I really hope this is the problem. I will post back when I can get it plugged into the correct charger to let ya know if it worked.

I plugged it into the computer using a usb cable. That did the trick! Booted up after about 5 minutes. Blahhh looks like I am going to have to buy a batman utility belt for all these chargers and cords I'm going to have to have.

WHAT? Just use the Nook Charger and cable, PERIOD. Anything else will only charge at .5A vs the 1.9A the NC charger puts out.
This is why it took a long time... It may charge 5%/hr on a .5A connection where it charges at 25%/hr or so on the NC charger.
I'm having the same issue. I plugged it into my note 2 charger which is 2.0A 5V charger... Been 30 minutes and nothing...

Even though you are using a different 2 amp charging block, it will not charge fast without the BN Nook cable. It has an extended micro USB connector with additional power pins to deliver the full 2 amps to charge the NC. Non Nook cables will only charge at 0.5 amps max.
Hi,
How long does it usually take u guys to recharge ur note from dead or almost?
It took mine. Over 8 hours to charge from 12%.
Also if keep my note on charge but im usimg it for browsing or whatever, my note still dischares.
Is this normal for the note as my htc Desire didnt diacharge while using it while connected to the charger.
Thanks
Neil

Hmmm I've never really timed it but its gotta be around 4hrs for a full charge.
I have been playing Stardom even when charging and it gains battery.
That doesn't sound normal at all.
If u r charging from USB port den its possible. Charging from ac will be a different story
Sent from my GT-N7000 using XDA
Charging by USB is at around 12% per hour, so it does take 8 hours.
Charging by a/c is upwards of 35%/hr.
Some of the apps usage would demand battery usage at 20-25% per hour, so if your battery usage is more than your charging rate then you would be losing battery which is what might have happened when you are using USB charging etc.
If your stats are for a/c charging, then I suspect the charger.
Yeah i charged for 8 hours with ac and also got discharge while using the note and charging.

Depends on what you are using for, but it still doesn't sound right.
Mine charges from 5% to full in about 3 hours when it's just sitting
on the table and I'm just using it for a phone call every now and then.
charging shouldn't take more than 4 hours when done from an AC outlet. just check if you have original batteries and charger. if not, take it to the shop and get it replaced immediately. 8 hours is just too much.

Im using the stock charger.
Rocket rom / Abyss 4.2 kernel
And battery life was around 20% after around 14 hours then i put it on charge and used it for about an hour but it discharged to 12%.
I am using the device heavily at the moment as ive had it only a few day.

When you are using it heavily while charging it might be normal,
try leaving it alone while charging for one cycle, that'll give you
an indication.
If it's still substantially higher than 3 to 4 hours under these circumstances
you've got a problem, either battery or charger have an issue, or there's an
app sucking battery like hell.
as said, 3-4 hours is normal. Do you have a battery drain issue when in normal use? if yes, then u can use betterbatterystats to check which process is using the juice.
Also, its advisable (in the first cycle after flashing a rom) to charge the phone with switched off. After full charge, take out the battery, wait for 1 min , reinsert & restart. This will help to reset the battery & start afresh.
From 8% to 100% with the charger it took me less than 3 hours.
I only charge by USB on my PC and its never taken close to 8 hrs for a full charge..
The only time charging has taken a very long time for me is when I ran a ICS ROM.
So i did a charge with my usb cable and it tool half the time. Maybw theres a problemwith my ac charger.

use a different charger, i put it down to a **** charger from samsung as mine did the same, woudl discharge even tho was supposedly plugged in and charged
When I charge my phone it reaches 99% and it remains there it never reaches a 100% charge.
And my led notification is always red never goes green.
Did anybody else notice this?
Sent from my HTC One using xda app-developers app
Maybe you are using 3rd party application like Battery Motifier in which the settings of battery full is only set to 99%. I am using this application for charging my phone then this app notifies me once it was fully charge using a sound notification. Try to check your applications installed to your phone maube you have same kind of application or the likes... hopefully it helps

I had to get an exchange for my first handset. It had major gaps, and battery never fully charged.
It seems it was due to a dodgy battery. Even if the phone was left on charge for 10 hours it still wouldn't fully charge, turned on or off.
If it gets really hot while trying to charge after 98% it may be the same thing, and you should possibly ask for an exchange, or get it checked out.

How do you know the battery is at fault?
Sent from a pizza..
Why not let the phone discharge until it shuts off, then try to completely charge it from empty. I had an atrix once that would only charge to 99 after most Rom installs until I did this. Always figured it was a battery calibration thing.
Interesting fact, Lithium-ion polymer batteries do not charge to 100% capacity by design. They are actually quite difficult to charge correctly (in the electrical engineering sense, it's still plug and charge for the end user) and it is not worth the additional hassle to get to a "true" full charge. What the phone reports as 100% is only 2-3% off of the theoretical max capacity so in practice the difference is not noticeable.
It's hard to say if this effect is whats responsible for what you're seeing, but it could be related. Another possibility is that you simply haven't let it trickle charge long enough to report 100%. The last few % charge of any phone battery is going to go at a much slower rate compared to 20-90% for example. Really the only thing you can do is the somewhat standard advice to get a full discharge/charge cycle in to let android re-calibrate itself.
this is normal, it eventually does it,m dont worry about it
sometimes if i use the phone whilst its on charge it turns green
im not bothered, 99% is good enough for me it trickles down at the end really slowly
even 95% is good enough i usually unplug it at 95
I had the same thing when I got my phone, I was using a cheapo micro usb charger that did not have the beans to charge the one.. it got to 99% always.
Switched to proper one with phone and voila green light & 100%
For the record an iPad 3 (aka "new" iPad) charger works if you swap the USB cable also.
I am using the charger that came with the phone, and it has been an hour on 99%, any advice? To the ones who reached the 100% mark, how long did you leave it at 99%?
Happened to me too, with stock charger.
Finally got it to completely charge. I let it discharge to 2 percent than charged it with the touchpad charger. Most probably the first step isn't required. The charger outputs 2A. Will try other chargers including pc usb..

Let me know how it works ok... Seems like maybe its a stock charger issue...or maybe i just need to let it discharge to less than 2% most i ever let it down to was 9%...keep me updated please...
i had that problem on my s2 with some custom roms. it would charge to 100% if i unplugged it rebooted and plugged it back in. also it went away after 1 or 2 battery cycles
Reboot device when at 98/99%, then it will show 100% for some reason.

Hello friends, I just bought an HTC one and I'd like to say that I'm having a great time with it. But I do have some questions about how to properly charge it, because I've read just about every theory about how to charge it.
Should I wait for it to get to 0% and then charge it, and should it charto to 100% or a bit less;
Can I keep the phone on while charging, or should I turn it off?;
Can I use it while charging?;
Is it bad if I let it charge at night while I'm sleeping and plug it off when I wake up.
Thanks in advance to anyone who helped me!

my phone sits in a desktop cradle all night on charge and almost never goes below 40% in a long days usage. most of the time my phone is somewhere between 100 and 70% battery.

discharging to 0 and charging it to 100% is used for battery calibration (once or twice a month)
you can use your phone while charging but will take more time to charge
no it is safe to let it charge whole night because of the trickle charging

About that trickle charge, if I let the phone charge all night and turned on, the trickle charge basically does nothing right? because the charger stops charging when the battery gets full right? But if the is on, every time it gets to 100%, it stops charging and starts losing battery, and then it charges again, and so on.... Is it true?

trickle charge will happen no matter screen is OFF or ON
i charge my phone with Daydream ON and it discharges after full
trickle charge happens when battery is 100% and then it doesn't charge and discharge upto 90% and starts charging again, IMO
So I had this with my original g6 that was replaced due to also dropping signal randomly. Now the replacement is doing it too.
What is happening is that overnight while on the charger it will either stop charging or super slow charge. After being on the charger for 6.5 to 7 hours last night my phone had only charged from 40% to 85%. Has anyone else seen this issue? Phone reports that it's fast charging, and has done this with 2 different chargers and cables.

After 6+ hours, mine would be fully charged and I am using a wireless charger. Perhaps an app is using up resources? Have you tried plugging it in and then completely turning the phone off to see how long it takes? (Note, if you turn it off first, it will just turn back on when you plug in the charger.
I think it might have been a random application, I removed a number of unused apps, including Ampere and have not had the issue in the last week.
