[Q] phone wont charge unless turned off. - One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Evening,
Today my phone has developed a very annoying problem. It doesn't want to charge up from the mains or be detected by a computer, so the battery is running down. The only way to charge my phone is if I turn it off. I haven't dropped the phone and am UN aware of any damage I have caused. The phone did once warn me that it was in usb host mode and can't charge but this warning is now gone and the problem remains.
Currently s-off running the latest viper Rom. Tried reflashing and starting fresh but not made a difference. Any ideas greatly appreciated. Who ever sorts it I will even buy you a beer via PayPal

Try to go on stock firmware and look if you have same insuess, next step if the problem persists is going full restock(s-on locked) and call htc for pick up ur phone

Battery Temperature too low!! Charging problem

Hello people,
I have searched a lot on google en XDA to solve my problem, but i can't find it. The temperature of my Samsung Galaxy s GT-i9000 is to low, to be exact -7° degrees.
The problem is that i can't charge my phone now. The phone says: Charging paused. Battery temperature is too high or too low.
Can anyone help me, is would appreciate it a lot!
That's unusual to be honest ^^ , maybe if you put your phone ( or the battery ) in a worm place this problem will be solved , lol i can't even imagine what you've done to make it -7degrees ..
If the temperature of the phone is nrml and you're getting this msg for no reason u can reset it to factory settings , this will probably fix any software problems.
Good luck
i have reset a lot of times my factory settings. Do you have more solutions? (sorry for my English, i speak dutch) Thanks
did u flash any rom?
How old is your phone(battery)
Try a factory wipe,as suggested in the above post,maybe it's an app that caused the prob
I know for sure it's not my battery because had a other battery in it and it said the same. What i was forgotten to say was that my computer recognize my phone as a samsung galaxy, that is really strange. He doesn't want to charge.
Can you manage to get into recovery mode (by clicking vol up+home+power)? If you can, go to "advanced>wipe battery stats", and see if that fixes the problem.
did u flash any rom(kernel) if not,then I think your battery chipset is broken.
If u did flash any rom try format your system in recovery and flash a new rom first from cwm and if this doesn't fix then format again and flash a rom with Odin
Good luck
Yes i can it didn't work. Could a Kernel help me? Or has anyone have a link to rom which could help me?
Stock rom(jvu) get it from sammobile.com or search for darky's rom and flash this through ODIN.if u never tried odin then search and read how to use it
Thanks i'll try to install the darky rom. I tell you if it helps and when it doesn't i tell is also.
Have you flashed custom rom before? If yes try darky or something. If no is your phone still under warranty? If yes don' t flash anything and take it in. If no flash darky or other rom to see if you can resolve issue.

Thanx ,cos I never heard of this problem before,so it would be nice with a follow up
Hope u will get fixed.
Good luck m8
Sorry m8 it didn't work. I installed the darky rom and the problem is still there. I installed the Rom by CWM recovery. It couldn't work with odin
Could anyone help me with this problem?
Use darky's 10.2 TAR file this is flashable with Odin or any other .tar file.
@RAMAD rooted roms is tar and only flashed in Odin.search ramad
it diden't work. Could it be solved with a secret code or something? I don't think it is a hardware problem because i can connect with my computer.

Hi, did you find a solution to the problem? I have the same problem after leaving my phone in a hammock in the rain (probably not the greatest of ideas). The phone works fine, but won't charge the battery. My solution so far was to buy a separate charger to charge the battery (about $10 from Amazon), but if there is a way to stop the battery check that would be much better than having to take out the battery every day to charge it.
Regards,
Svein

I'm having the same issue. It just started yesterday. Even with low use the phone gets hot and it won't let me charge it. I keep getting the battery temperature error. Even when it's powered off. I went into recovery mode as suggested by a previous poster and there is no advanced options that I can see. I'm not rooted and bone stock. Very frustrating. I've also tried another OEM battery to no avail.
HELP! http://forum.xda-developers.com/ima charging paused battery temperature too low
Hello guys, I get that message whenever I charge it or connect it to PC
my phone is galaxy s2 and the ROM is ICS 4.0.4
if anyone can help me. THanks
The problem is in the charge port flex it self. i work for a cell phone repair shop. i fix this issue all the time. its just a trac on the flex that goes bad. easy replacement fix. Here is a link to buy one.

My Galaxy Note Is DEAD!!

Hi everybody, I searched everywhere for a solution but no luck
i love my note so much that if i couldnt fix it i think im gonna kill myself.
let me tell you the whole story, maybe you can revive my note again.
im a daily rom flasher, sometimes even 2 or 3 roms a day,
i wanted to flash ics stunner rom so i went into cwm recovery,flashed the zip file and wanted to format data\factory reset, but while the phone was formatting i accidently pressed the power button, the phone was stuck and didn't complete formatting, i took the battery out, put it back in and powered the phone, it was stuck at the bootscreen GTn7000 Galaxy Note.
I got into download mode and flashed a stock rom, but it was the same.
i downloaded and flashed other stock roms but it was stuck at the bootscreen.
then i wanted to flash a stock rom that came with a Pit file, i did everythig correctly, and Odin was stuck at the partition thing, for more than 15 minutes.
i unpluged the phone i pressed the power button, NOTHING!!
i officially bricked my phone which i worked so hard for months to get it.
i tried everything,even the jig thing, i couldn't buy so i had to make one.
maybe i did somethig wrong with the jig or maybe because i didnt solder it or the usb plug im using isnt working.
this may be relevant, i pluged the usb OTG in the phone and in the OTG was a bluetooth peice for computers, the piece had a light, and the light was ON.
Another thing that if i leave the battery in the phone for a while, the camera area in the back gets a little hot, my phone always did that meaning its still alive.
i may have written too much, forgive me but im really desperate.
Thanks in advance.
You probably end up going to Samsung. Pay €200 and get a new motherboard.
Good luck.

WOW...
the problem is that i live in a fu**ed up country and we dont have samsung here.
all phones come without warranty and by smuggling from other countries
You mentioned killing yourself. Bro it's just a phone... Hang in there!!!

First thing donot flash Ics now untill you are craze about it.2nd donot use CWM as much as possible.Read this.
Ok to the problem now.Since you say it gets hot,it might be still alive.Remove the battery and insert it after 10 secs and insert the jig and after few secs press vol up button.Now connect the phone to computer and see if its detected if it does try flashing abyy's kernel.I dont know which kernel for sure.Somebody might help you.People were able to get into DL mode when there screen were not showing anything.
There are situations when your phone is working, but your screen is black.
Let's hope yours is one of those...Try this:
1. Don't flash Abyss. Download a stock GB Rom instead.
2. Charge your phone for a couple of hours. You need your battery for the
following steps.
3. After charging, take out your battery and wait 1 minute
4. Put it back in
5. Boot into Download mode (Volume Down+Home+Power) (you will see only black screen)
6. Count to 10
7. Press Volume Up
8. Count to 10
9. Start your PC Odin
10. Connect your phone to PC
11. Wait untill PC installs the necessary drivers
12. If all goes well, your PC Odin will flash the yellow light with COM info in it
13. Flash your stock GB Rom
If this doesn't work, you'll need to think of the ways of getting your phone JTagged or where to get a new motherboard.
Dude, if you have no way of repairing a bricked phone in your country then stay away from flashing custom ROMs!!!

Your phone is pretty much dead I'm afraid
Why didn't you bother to read stickies first?
It has been known for several weeks now that doing a wipe from CWM in a leaked recovery (I.e all ICS ROMs except cm9 official) will lead to a corrupted emmc drive ,thus a dead phone
And no ,you pressing the power button had nothing to do with it being stuck
The moment you hit wipe from ICS stunner's recovery your phone was dommed.
Anyway what's done is done ,now find an unofficial repair shop and replace your motherboard.
I hope this makes it clear ,and good luck to you.

OK, how much will it cost me ?
by the way i forgot to mention that before i bricked the note, it had a charging problem, saying voltage too high,charging stopped,and when the phone is turned off the battery icon keeps appearing and disapearing, could it be that the jig is not working because of that??
Try a different USB cable?

You're not going to like this: I had to send my phone back to Samsung to get that fixed. Basically the charging port was shorting out, happens when stuff gets inside it (dirt, moisture, etc, from what I read). You could try cleaning it, but for me the port didn't break, it just acted like it was charging when there was nothing plugged in. So the JIG will work if it's supposed to.

Just out of curiosity: Are you in the US and had to send your international Note somewhere? I am wondering how one can get a support for an International Note if you're in the US.
I don't mind sending it to another country, but which Samsung center will accept it?

I am wondering the same thing, mine got bricked about a week ago and I don't really know what to do with it

Huge problem .

Hello xda,
Sorry for the wrong section but i want a fast answer because my phone is almost gone
I have a problem with the charger ... it connects and disconnects frequently ...
I need to put the phone in a bizar pozition for it to charge.
Whatever...
I went to the store where i bought the phone to fix this problem.
But , it has cm10.1 installed and they say they can fix the problem only if i have the stock installed and 0 counter bin..........
I come home and try to flash stock via odin...
The USB works the same way as charger.
And while flashing I move accidentaly the phone...
And now is 0% battery and is not charging.......
I can't even open it...
What should I do?
Is there any chance to return it to stock?...
If not what mid-range phone did you suggest me?
I look for a s2 plus or a nokia lumia 520...
Thanks for understanding !
Borrow a battary from a frined and try to flash stock via odin carefully this time.

I have a problem with the place where the charger is putting...
And while i want to install 2.3.6 via odin and remove the usb at 65%....
It couldn't charge... because it has teoretical no software..
so.. you can use odin or not?
As i said... nope..
The phone doesen't turn on...
When i flash 2.3.6 via odin it fails
And the charger (the place where you put it) is massedup.........
I was thinking if i can give my battery to a friend with the same phone to charge my battery and then trying to flash again...
Hope it will work.
Thanks for all
Okay, the problem is the horrid usb port some sgm 2 series have, just go to the shop, tell them to replace your usb port. Its not a charger problem. Then feel free to flash cm again, because its the best

at the store they told me if i have root / not official soft they can't do nothing... thats the cause of me trying to flash 2.3.6
Dude, its completely fking irrelevant whether you have official or not, for usb port replacement it doesnt matter. Go to another service if they keep telling you bull$hit

It is relevant because guarranty does not apply if you don't have the official software, it doesn't matter what needs to be changed, you need to fulfil all the requirements for the guarranty to apply.
Thatt is true tho. In that case i dont see how this can be fixed
So.. i'm back !
I bought a new usb cable and a battery and flash 2.3.6 but with no wipe (via odin)
So the phone does not turn on (stuck at samsung logo) because i had 4.2.2 (cm10.1)
And I tryied to go to cwm (flashed via odin) to wipe and flash again 2.3.6
But it won't open.
Not even official recovery turned on ...
I tryied cwm / twrp but no chance.
Any helps how to enter into recovery??
it's a hard brick, nothing you can do.
Heh.
I just enter recovery and flash the 2.3.6.
My guarranty is back !
I take the phone tomorrow to service for charger fix !
THANKS A LOT !

I'm not sure about this one but if the phone was mine I would try to flash a stock kernel ftf with flashtool. it might be you flashed something bad and things got corrupted. and if the phone is stuck like this your phone will probably not charge, so the battery is dead. in which case you cannot flash an entire rom. try to flash only the kernel from this using flashtool. .
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2647207
if this works then place your phone on charge for a few hours.
then reflash the entire stock ftf.
if none of this works I'm not sure what else you can try. good luck!

I have had this exact same problem for months now and thought I tried everything. But I guess not.:good: Just wondering what you did after you completed the wiring on the battery. Did you charge it for a certain amount of time,before turning it on? Did you have to flash a stock rom? Any input would be very helpful. Thanks

I have first charge the battery till it wass fullcharged and than i have flashed a new rom

[Q] Phone only charges when turned off

Hello,
I was using Cyanogenmod 11 and suddenly (possibly after an update) my phone wouldn't charge anymore. I tried many different scenarios and it turns out that the phone only charged when my phone was either off or just booted and the screen not locked yet. From the second I locked my screen, my phone would stop charging.
Naturally, I assumed that this was a problem with the last CM update, so I flashed a new ROM (SkyDragon GPE). And now, it charges only when turned my phone is turned off. Very weird.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? Do I need to return it to the store? And if so, is it best to return to stock ROM etc before returning it?

From the second I locked my screen, my phone would stop charging.
Naturally, I assumed that this was a problem with the last CM update, so I flashed a new ROM (SkyDragon GPE). And now, it charges only when turned my phone is turned off. Very weird.
Is anyone familiar with this problem? Do I need to return it to the store? And if so, is it best to return to stock ROM etc before returning it?

Do not return it! I am not entirely sure wheter the Recovery is responsible for charging or not.
If you don't fear losing all your data or if you've already backed them up, do a full RUU. This works that way:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2632736 and go to this section : "You want to have stock software again? No Problem" it is the last one before the first post ends.
This will get you to stock bootloader, recovery and OS. But pay attention you need a Win7 PC!
This way we can test wheter the issue also exists with stock software. if yes -> returning to the seller is an option. But for now you shouldn't do that.

Thanks for your reply LibertyMarine,
I'm afraid I already returned my phone. I couldn't even do anything with my phone anymore: the battery was dead and there was no way to charge it.

That's ok. If the battery was really dead and you can't turn it on again, then the chances that the repairteam from HTC won't be able to turn it on again either are high. So if you get lucky they make the decision that replacing the device is cheaper than repairing it and in that case they may not find out that it has been rooted.
Otherwise they may charge your for having to replace your motherboard as it's against HTCs policy to send back an altered motherboard. Just hope they don't find it out.
Good luck!
