Hi.
I'm writing for a problem that occured to my girlfriend's phone so sorry if I'm not very specific.
She have a galaxy mini 2 gt-s6500 and it seems that the phone cannot charge.
She put the phone on charge with 20% of battery remaning and gradually the charge decreasing while the phone showed the yellow triangle with the exclamation mark.
Now the phone is plug and the display is black or black with the backlight turned on, what she can do ?
The phone has android stock.
Thanks a lot. Bye !
I heard something about dust in the phones plug. And after cleaning this (with a needle e.g.) my device's charging problems were gone.
It's worth a try.

Hello again XDA!
Firstly i understand that there have been many posts like this one (a seemingly common problem) but none of them have experienced the computer specific problems that i am experiencing,
My phone- HTC ONE, Rooted, cyanogen mod, 3 months old.
The other night i was drinking with some friends and i let my htc one die completely. My phone had, recently, been behaving strangely with regards to charging, as in not charging/taking hours to do so. After my phone died it refused to turn on again. Pure blankness.
I have tried various methods suggested here and around the net from various volume and power combinations to proximity sensor tricks. None of which have worked.
Adb does not detect my phone when connected. Normally at this stage i would give up and set about getting a replacement however something has deterred me. Whenever i plug my phone into my macbook or windows xp machine a message saying that 'USB devices have been disabled as one is drawing too much power' pops up.
This gives me hope as it proves that my htc one is still drawing juice and therefore not a complete paperweight! Anyway guys any help is appreciated as i am a college student on break and being at home is really hard without being able to keep in touch with my friends. I will, at this stage, try anything. Thanks!
I dont quite understand your problem. Its normal that the phone stays.black for the first minutes on the charger when it's completely discharged. Try leaving it at the charger for half an hour and check back then

The phone has now been charging for three days nonstop.
NOW I unterstand your problem A destroyed USB connector is no option? (PC is basically recognizing the device). Maybe the battery is just broken? I hardly doubt that a non charging device can be a software bug. But I'm just guessing at this point, maybe someone knows more :/

Hello community.
As it turns out I am currently waiting for my phone's battery to discharge completely according to this thread: http://http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1849170
But let me take it from the beginning.
My Xperia SP is rooted with unlocked bootloader, CWM and usb debugging set to OFF.
Last night I accidentally forgot to charge my phone and when I woke up in the morning it had switched off. The nightmare begins.
When I connected the charger I got the red led and the phone wouldn't turn on. Since I have been fighting with this for the greater part of my day I honestly cannot remember the specific order of the following actions that all took place:
Hard reset, soft reset, (power button and OFF button on the motherboard), connection in flashmode, connection in fastboot, flashing of kernels, flashing of roms, unplugging of the battery, CWM attempted recovery (power off interrupted), bootloops, sony logo freezes and other similar.
At the moment I can only connect in flashmode with battery unplugged and thus I flashed stock rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2703651 and then I flashed doomlord's kernel http://doomlord.xperia-files.com/download.php?dlid=U1BfRG9vTUxvUkRfQWR2U3RrS2VybmVsX0ZXLTIwMV92MDI= in an attempt to access CWM recovery and take it from there.
Alas, when the battery is unplugged the phone won't boot into recovery it will only bootloop to the SONY logo and when the batery is plugged in it wont turn on at all.
With the battery plugged in and the charger plugged in as well I only get the red led. When the charger is unplugged and I press the power button i get two blinks of the red led and that's that. There was a moment that I got the charging screen without the red led when the phone was on the charger but it did not charge at all and I can't get it there again.
So to sum up: my phone will not charge and therefore will not turn on. I have now left it aside for its battery to totally die but how can I know when will that be?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I suggest just flashing stock rom and let it charge for some hours (it might take a few hours for an empty battery to be able to boot the phone) if still not charging maybe use a different cable with highee voltage

I have already flashed the latest stock rom along with doomlord's kernel. And now I am waiting for the battery to die.
I will follow your suggestion however and will plug it in straight away.
Will update you in a few hours.
Thanks.

Maybe you should flash a stock kernel. I suspect you have a offlime charging backup which prevents you from charging with the phone off. I don't know whether doomlord's kernel has the bug or not

Well the problem is that the only way to flash anything at the moment is to connect the phone to my pc with the battery unplugged and as I just re-assembled the device I will take my chances with the kernel.
"offline charging backup" ... what is this?
In terms of backups I have two of them in my external SD. One from CWM and one from Titanium.

Ok. So; when I plugged in the device it gave me the annoying red led with no other response whatsoever.
After 8 hours (give or take) of charging I thought to check up on my phone again.
At first there was no red led! No led at all actually. I pressed the power button and I got the charging screen. I pressed it two times and both times it showed the charging screen. However; according to that screen the battery level is still at a minimum (red level).
I leave it be for a minute or two and somehow it then again glows the red led. The power button is totally unresponsive once again.
And a few minutes later it's back at the charging screen - power button combination.
Is is charging? Is it alive?
I am losing patience here...

It looks like you're getting close. I suggest try charging with a cable that has higher voltage with a wall charger and just leave the phone be for the rest of the day

Well the only "different" cable I found was a LG wall charger with 5.1V output instead of 5V that the original sony charger outputs and I am now using that one.
Other than that; we are still in the "red led" state and the device enjoys the silence.

Just leave it charging (; I think 0-10% gives a red light. From 11-89 it will give a orange light and 90-100 a green light

Somewhere 5,5 hours later the situation is the same.
But I think I found out how it changes from the red led to the charging screen.
When it is at the red led state the phone tries to boot on its own. It then freezes on the sony logo and turns off with no red led but with the charging screen enabled (on power button press). By the way the charging screen shows the same battery level (minimum). And some hour later it goes back to the red led.
I tried something else only moments ago. While the phone was at the "charging screen" state I pressed the power button. I got one vibrate and the phone attempted to boot. It went straight to the Xperia logo and then started the graphics. But after several repetitions of the graphics it turned off and went back to "red led" state.
Are we sure it is charging or that even the led will eventually change colours?
According to Toledo_JAB he waited 51 hours for his battery to dry out (while NOT plugged in) and then started to charge.
The problem of ur charger is the mAh not the volt. I relief my phone with a 2000 mAh charger because the Sony charger have 800 mAh and made by me a red bootloop.

So what gives? I am currently leaving it aside (unplugged) for its battery to die out completely.
You say I should get a charger with more mAh and attempt to charge it?

That's what the man says. Sorry for giving the advice. I too meant the mAh, just didn't know that wasn't called voltage
Verstuurd vanaf mijn C5303 met Tapatalk
Latest update:
1) I got a new charger of 1000 mAh (1 Ampere) which was the more powerful I could find.
2) In order to connect in flashmode I unplugged the battery and connected to my pc.
3) I then flashed the latest stock rom 12.1.A.1.201.
4) Then I plugged in my new charger.
So after about 16 hours of constant I get the following loop:
Red led --> momentarily green led --> bootloop on sony logo --> turn off --> no led and charging screen --> back to red led.
All of the above happen with the phone plugged in the charger with the charger on the mains socket and the charging screen appears when pressing on the power button and shows the same as before minimum (red) level of battery.
I really don't know what to make of it.

How do I do that?
There is no recovery option on the stock ftf.
I had flashed the doomlord's advanced stock kernel in order to access the cwm recovery but it was then pointed out to me that the said kernel may include the offline charging bug.
So I flashed the stock ftf as I described earlier.
No more...
Hello again!
After many MANY attempts I finally gave up on my phone.
I delivered it to an authorized sony service centre and waiting for (up to 10 working days!!!) a motherboard replacement.
By the way it's 148 euro.
Lovely.

First find out if it is a software or hardware problem. Turn the phone off and then plug in the charger. If it starts charging up then it's a software problem. Otherwise, try cleaning out the usb port.

Also maybe buy a spare USB board on ebay. Cheap and very easy to replace. I have one in stock in case it breaks down.
Mine also acted weird on every charger/cable, so do what XxPixX says and if that doesn't work just put it aside untill you have another pcb board.

How can i decide if it´s death?
Did you try another charger? What I wanted to say is that it is unlikely to solve your problem if you flash another ROM. Try another battery...

Hi Daniel,
You didn't specify what your symptoms are. There are three common issues with charging:
Cable / Adapter issues
Charging indicator on but battery not charging
Battery is empty and cannot be charged
In the first case, there is no charging indicator. When connecting to a PC, the PC doesn't recognize the phone. Or it will cycle between connection/charging and disconnected. This may be because of the USB cable (easy to check: try a different cable). Another option is that the adapter itself is physically damaged. For some reason this is common with n7000. The remedy in this case is to replace the adapter.
If the charging indicator is on but not charging, try shutting down the phone and then connect the phone to a wall charger. Wait a little while to see that the battery is recharging (quick click on the power button to see charging indicator). This happens occasionally (in other Galaxy models too). If this is the case, try reseting the phone to factory setting and don't install any apps for a while. Operate the phone to see if the problem is solved before installing your apps one by one.
If the battery is fully drained, it may not charge back. You will need to manually charge it a little to get it started, then charge normally. This is done by connecting exposed wires directly to the connectors of the phone and battery and booting the phone. There are instructions elsewhere on the net. Don't try this if you don't have some electronic skills!
It is also possible that the battery is ending its life. But that would normally manifest in a long charge - quick discharge cycle. Easy to replace the battery and test.
If all else fails, try telling your phone that you are about to replace it with a new model. I don't know why but sometimes it works.
Good luck!

Hi guys,
I have a very strange problem. My Xperia Z was discharged and when I was connect it to charger the I've got permanent red light. Even after disconnecting from the charger the red light still occurs. I cant turn on the phone!! Please help!!!
Just keep it on the charger for a few hours,it should spring back to life:laugh:
This happens cuz there isn't enough charge left in the battery for the screen to turn on(maybe,i think so) and show the battery meter.When it gets recharged to a certain level(around 1%) it will hop back to life.
Yes, true. Strange bug...

I have a problem with my xperia phone where when I connect it to its charger the red light will turn on and stay on but the actual phone its self will not turn on. I believe this has to do with water damage. Yesterday I tried using my, "waterproof", phone to take underwater photos and 120fps videos. I kept it under for maybe 35 seconds at the most. I took it out of the pool to look at the videos and it was working fine. When I went in next to take one picture I took it out and the screen was really dark so I went inside and the screen was working and phone was vibrating but screen was blank. I held down the volume up and power button to turn it off. When I went to turn it on again the sony logo flashed and the screen was bright again for less than half a second and then got really dark and the sony logo became very hard to see and then it turned off. I went inside and opened the flaps to check for leaks but there was no sign of any water at all. I left the phone overnight with the flaps open and when I plugged it in the next morning (today) the red light turned on. After leaving it for maybe an hour I could still not turn the phone on and there were not even any vibrations. Is there anything to do to save this phone? I LOVED this phone and its never let me down and my only backup phone at the moment is an iPhone 4 which I hate already after a just a few hours.
Please help me.
Thanks
The water can go through the backside maybe there are a leak.
I would turn the heating to full up and put the phone with open flaps on it.
Then wait 1-2 days and don't forget to put between phone and heating a paper then wait.
After 1-2 days you can try to start your phone.
A other solution (only for advanced user)
is disassemble your phone and looking on the indicator inside.

I'm sorry but I couldn't quite understand that could you try re-wording it?
Turn your heater up and put your phone on it.
Wait 2 days and then try to turn your phone on.
Maybe is your backside not waterproof.
You can try to dissemble your phone and looking for the indicators.
You understand?
