I replaced my screen due to damage yesterday, after I brought it home, the battery seems to had stuck at 50%, so I took it as a sign of problem
Today, after going home from school, my phone shut down and is now only showing a red low-battery screen upon turning in on. I've tried charging the phone and it's been 3 hours, but it doesn't seem to be charging, just constantly flashing the low batter screen with a charging icon on top of it
I tried hard resetting (volume up and all that) multiple times but it doesn't seem to work
Do I have to bring it back to repair again ?

Hello, when I got my g1 it wouldn't charge phone would boot up when it was plugged in the light would come on and it would display "charging 0%" on the lock screen and would shut off whenever it was unplugged, with some messing around, rebooting removing reinstalling battery and plugging and unplugging the phone I managed to get it to start charging, all was great other than the battery only lasted like 3 hours, and whenever the phone lost power either by pulling the battery or even shutting it off properly it would revert back to 0% and wouldn't charge again till I messed with it and it would work again, so I ordered a new battery, when it came in I installed it and everything was awesome, I could restart the phone or remove the battery flash roms all that good stuff like it was supposed to, till yesterday, I have had the replacement battery about a month now and my phone was running low on charge since I wouldn't be home for a while I shut it down to save it for later, I was walking by the phone sitting there and I saw the back light turn on and off so I thought dang back to the same ol problem, tried to turn it on and just a dim red led and no power on, when I got home plugged it in let it charge for a few min and held the power button I got the red led and it finally turned on to "charging 0%" I was mad at it tested voltafe at battery terminals and phone terminals plugged in power everywhere it should be but still no turn on, I didn't my messing around again and got it to charge but it was back to 3 hour or so battery life and it would be at 0% if I shut it down, I don't think its the connection with the battery because I haven't removed it in a good 3 weeks or shut the phone off since my last flash 3 weeks ago.
It did this with the first battery before I rooted but here's current setup
Phone is black g1 drea100
Rom htc adp-drc83 rooted base with exp pack
Radio 2.22.19.26I
Recovery ra-dream-v1.5.2
Thanks for any help
So I took my charger with me to class today because my phone was almost dead. As it was charging I began to fiddle with it ex: go on reddit . Suddenly The phone began to lag and the screen shut off. I unplugged it and began to hold down the power button.... Had it held down for about a minute and still no results. The charging light is stuck green even when off the charger and the navigation buttons are stuck on. When holding down the power button the navigation buttons would also flash as it normally does but im not getting any feedback from the device. Anyone have any solutions? I need my phone to be working asap. If there isnt any hope i may as well upgrade.
Little update: I let the battery die out and plugged it into the charger. After half hour it still wouldn't turn on. Several hours after that I found it on and running. Very strange....
Hi,
My Z3c recently suffers this problem that the phone may turns off itself all of a sudden,
I have rooted it few months ago and it's still running 4.4.4 until now.
It first happened a day before, I charged it for a while (not for long perhaps half hour) and then unplugged it from the charger to browse some websites before sleep, but then it turned off automatically without any notice, I tried to turn it on again but it just showed me the 'Sony' and then gone black screen again, I thought it was battery running out so I plugged it back to charger, it showed that 48% battery left, then I tried to turn it on (both volume button+power on button or pressing power on button only) again but still nothing just blackness, so i just simply charged it and went to bed. I checked it the morning after, still couldn't turn on, so i unplugged it, waited for like couple hours then finally I can turn it on but the phone only got 16% battery left.
It happened twice today, blackout during charging, unplug it from charger, wait for like 30 mins ish then it'd be okay to power on.
when I try to turn it on or force power on it, it'll still vibrant as usual but just nothing to show on screen when the problem occurs
does anyone know if it's hardware or software problem? would that be solved if I just factory reset it or I must take it to sony care centre?
the phone turned off today after the screen started to flicker.
I noticed the battery was also flat.
ever since then it will not turn on, the best I have got is when I plug it in after 30min it shows up that it is in charge mode but that comes and goes.
as soon as I try calibrating it just goes off and doesn't do anything, nothing has brought the phone back to life . is there anything else I can do?
it now keeps booting back to charge when i do the battery calibration.... does this mean the phone is broke or just flat?
when it trys to turn on the screen gos blue after the logo and then turns off......
ok now the phone is back buti have to have the charger in otherwise it turns straight off
If Im understanding, you have to keep the device connected to charger to have it booted up and working else it turns off, if so then possibly hardware failure, battery terminals seem to be malfunctioning, will need repairs no technical fix as I understand.
yeah been told it will cost me £30 to replace battery
Either the charger-cable-connector bit is unreliable (do you have other chargers and cables?) or the battery itself is so broke that it doesn't store electricity any longer.
The latter usually usually doesn't come by surprice. Was battery life very short before this incident?
I'm getting some strange activity on the watch:
When it runs out of battery and shuts down, I place the watch on the charging cradle while it is off, and it starts to charge as normal. It slowly charges up to 25% as usual, and then suddenly it's at 100%!!
When I boot up the watch it is at 100%, but then starts to lose charge very quickly. It's almost like the battery has become uncalibrated. I have tried running it down and then fully charging it while off and leaving it on the charging cradle for hours etc, but no help.
Anyone else with this problem, and any suggestions? (Can't send it in for warranty repair etc... cos I live in UK where they don't sell it, so had to buy it off eBay, it's a W280A which had an AT&T sim in it)
I think I may have fixed this, I'll have to wait and see how long a full charge lasts, but for the first time while powered off, it charged from 1% to 100% by 1% each time, I know because I watched it - it's been driving me crazy! So something had screwed the calibration of the battery it seems!
The fix was to keep the watch on until it powered itself off with no battery. Then try holding down the centre crown and turning it back on again - mine would get to the Google Circles on the boot animation, and then black out again - and I did this repeatedly, with the LG logo flashing up, then Google, then the circles, then it turned itself off again - so I knew there was more battery there (yes, I know these batteries keep a reserve so they are never fully discharged, and it's not good to take them all the way down, but I was only getting the thing to charge 20% or so before it showed 100). So I thought, how to keep the screen on, I can't keep turning it on again and again.
So I put it in fastboot mode, hold down the centre button and the lower button and it will bring up the fastboot screen - and I left it with the screen on, which seemed for like hours. When the screen finally went off, I tried turning it on, no LG logo screen, tried booting into fastboot, nothing - the watch was truly dead! So I held my breath and placed it on the charger. After a few moments, the white flashing ring appeared and 1% appeared in the centre, yaay!! I then watched it, repeatedly every few minutes pressing the centre crown to check the battery while it cycled through every percent until it reached 100! Now the watch is on and I am monitoring the discharge. I will let you know how it goes (before I couldn't get more than 4 or 5 hours out of it with all sensors off!)
So for all those that are getting exceptionally poor battery life out there, your watch may be lying to you - when it runs out of juice and powers off, before charging it again, turn it on again and again until nothing appears on the screen, or enter fastboot/recovery and the let the screen drain the rest of the battery. Obviously I take no responsibility if it messes up your watch.
I can confirm that this has fixed the problem. I'm getting easily one day out of the watch now, even after going out for a 2 hour half marathon mid day. This watch rocks now!

I tired your procedure but no luck
Also can confirm the fastboot drain worked - took 3+ hours (I went to bed) on high brightness but then recharged in about 2 hours and has 60% left after 8 hours use (battery saver and I turn screen off manually).
Thank you Admisi I might try this for other devices forgetting where the bottom of the battery is. Good stuff.
