Hi to everybody,
I'm having a weird problem with my Nexus 6. After several ROM changes and back to stock, my phone stopped charging. I changed the battery because I though the battery was the problem, but I found that it really wasn't this problem, and the problem persists.
When I run into recovery or factory mode, the phone charges perfectly, without any troubles. I installed TWRP and checked the battery temperature and always has a ridiculous amount of several million degrees. Does anybody have or had the same problem and a way to solve it?
Thanks in advance.
It sounds like a hardware problem to me. Most likely, the initial problem charging was a bad USB port, cable, etc.. Getting a strange temperature reading like that indicates either the connection to the sensor wasn't reconnected when you reassembled the phone, or the sensor is on the battery and the battery you installed doesn't have one or it's broken somehow.
If you really think it's the ROM, power down and plug in. You should boot into a charging screen. That's not part of the ROM, so it's unlikely to have the same software issues.
I got the same problem months ago. I made a complete factory reset flashing all the things with stock and then it was working perfectly.

I recently received a replacement Nexus One from HTC and within three weeks it has already developed another problem.
Here's what usually happens:
Night to 6AM: Charging the phone
6AM: Pull the phone from the charger
6-8AM: The phone drains battery normally
~8AM+: The phone will automatically shut off for no reason at all, and then I try to turn it back on. After boot up it immediately begins the shut down procedure, with the battery reading ~0% life (sometimes I can't even turn the phone back on after a battery pull, it takes multiple pulls).
I originally thought that the problem was the Nexus was reading an incorrect charge on the battery, so I tried wiping the battery stats. There was no change in behavior, the phone continued to shut off. The only way to fix the problem temporarily is to charge the phone to use it, but the problem persists once the phone is taken off the charger.
I even tried doing a full factory reset, but the device exhibited the same problems after a certain period of time, which leads me to conclude that this is most likely a hardware problem, either with the battery or something with the N1 itself.
Has anyone else experienced similar problems, or does anyone know how to fix the issue? Please offer some insight, as this is getting quite frustrating and I can't use my phone normally until I get another replacement, or I fix the problem.
Can ANYONE help me? I hate only being able to use my phone for like two hours a day if even that.
I will have to start using my RAZR as a back up everywhere I go until I figure this out

CHECK YOUR PM--i had same issue---IT WAS THE BATTERY!!!!! They sent me a new replacement batt and it hasnt cutoff in 2mos!!---KNOCKS ON WOOD DAMMIT!!LMAO!
I'm having major battery issues with my X1.
it's always auto shut down all of the sudden although my battery was 70%
Then when I turn my phone back on.. it became low battery (less than or just 10%)
Is this related to my battery? or the phone itself?
Heard a friend having the same problema with a HTC after installing a new ROM.
Maybe it's soft related.
that problem WILL persist even if I changed so many roms? I just don't understand why.. Need to fix this ASAP.. it annoys me by running out of battery everytime =.="
I suggest you flash back your stock rom to exclude a software issue. If the problem persists I would say you have got a defective battery.
I suggest it's the battery. Had similar problem with aftermarket battery off eBay. Used it for 2 weeks, then it suddenly shut off and no sign of life whatsoever from my X, got the charger plugged in - nothing, no side lights, no startup. Flicked another battery in to make sure my X is functioning. Then got the battery that caused problem back in to see what's happening. Well, it was at 35%, started charging again and behaved like nothing happened.

yeah that's what happened to my phone..
Ahh... Guess I really need to change my battery already.. Thanks for the info. Helped a lot..
Hello All,
I am facing a strange issue but something that has become a nuisance and made my Note unusable.
I was happily running Ultimate JB 4.1.2 v5.1 when I downloaded something related to green them of sysui( name not entirely sure)
from the OTA update section in ultimate ROM and installed throught CWM.
After the installation, suddenly I found that my battery is not charging.
I connected through wall charger and even tried chargin through USB from my laptop. Nothing worked.
I flashed again with V5.1, then V5 and even Rocket Rom V12 several times while clearing the battery stat as well.
Once it worked when the battery started showing as getting charged,
but then USB mass storage was not being shown when I connected the phone through USB to my laptop.
So I flashed again. Finally after several attempts of flashing different Roms (All JB ultimate V5 and 5.1 and RRV12),
my battery started to get charged.
And now, yet again, for no change made to my Note, I have this problem appearing all of a sudden.
Battery not charging and now it has discharged completely. It either goes into boot loop or doesnt start at all.
USB storage hasnt worked since the problem started with the battery charging.
I am not sure what the problem is, but very unlikely problem with ROM.
I flashed the ROMs properly, doing factory reset, clearing Dalvik case, formatting /system, /preload etc.
There is no problem with the charger cable, for the battery gets heated even when my phone is off, but I see no battery charging signs.
any help please? Anyone?
I guess the problem is not related to the rom..its just a coincidence
Try with another charger and battery of ur friends
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
also try an official Samsung rom ICS or GB
I was facing the similar issue, but in my case when the battery was 10% i flashed cm9.1 stable rom without gapps or anything, and then the phone booted up and the battery was charging, (very slowly at first and then normal).
you could also try replacing the battery. I had a similar problem a few months back and when i checked the battery, it was already bloated so i repalced it. After replacing the battery, it went back to normal
Hello everyone.
I have a really big problem with my Xiaomi Mi3w (Cancro) and i haven’t find a solution in months.
I have an issue with the battery(?) or with the micro usb connector, sometimes i can’t charge my battery, no matter what or how, i can’t in any way.
When i connect the phone to the wall charger it doesnt charge or it even drains the battery, even if it’s off, it happened that some times when i connect the phone to the charger at 20+% battery after some hours it’s at 10%.
When the phone behaves like this and i try to connect it to the pc it can’t seem to hold the connection for more than 3-4 seconds, it continuosly connects and disconnects and it’s impossible even to open it in explorer. Obviously it’s impossible to charge even in this way.
At first i thought that it could only be a hardware problem (faulty connector/charger/cable etc)
but the last time i had this issue (today) i discovered that i can keep the connection between pc and the phone using fastboot. When i use fastboot the phone doesn’t disconnects continuosly so i can say that in 99% it’s not a connector/cable problem.
Could it be a kernel bug? I know that the kernel it’s active even when the phone is off but in charge, this could explain the charging problem even if it’s off.
Another thing that i discovered is that when the phone is on the connection to the pc gets more stable if i turn off debug mode ( can keep the usb connection on for more than 30 secs but i can’t seem to charge it anyway).
Things that i tried to solve the problem:
-Change the charger (1st charger is xiaomi’s orignal/ 2nd it’s a sony with output 5V/850 mah/ 3rd is a lg 4.8V/1A/ 4th is a generic tablet charger which came with my acer iconia with 5V/2A) none of these solved the problem.
-Change the cable (used 10 and more different cables, every cable was tested with my other devices and all were working well with my moto G and acer iconia)
-Fastboot install of both stable and developer rom
-Clean fastboot install of both roms (formatting both systems earlier with cwm)
-Install via cwm of ivan 4.4 aosp and cyano 12 (both of these uses the same leaked kernel right?)
-Cleaning connector with a neddle, soft cloth and some alcohol
I’m not sure about this other point but the phone seem to get in this not charging state when the battery gets below 30% and i keep it uncharged overnight.
So i thought that i could also be a problem related to the governor used by the phone when gets to a low battery profile and specifically when this governor tells the phone to get in deep sleep.
(this could perhaps explain the problem of both cyano and ivans roms random reboots and the workaround using partial_wake_lock)
I hope that someone can help me to solve this problem because my device is useless now
Thanks in advance to everyone
i have the same problem with my MI3W. Sometimes i can charge it while smartphone is power off.
I tried with another battery. I am waiting for a new usb connector flex to check too.
Do you find any solution?

I think i might be having the same problem. My phone started acting weird at the exact same condition. The charging connection kept going on and off. Felt like hardware issue at first. Charged my phone somehow to full charge and reset it. Looks good now but still skeptical.
Fingers crossed.

Hi i resolved the problem some time ago, cleaning the connector with a very tiny needle, i didn't go very far the first time that i cleaned it, probably it's only dirt, try cleaning it yourself and see if it resolves the problem
going fine

Tested for one month, ....never cleaned the connector though....
Never faced the problem again, though i have changed roms.:good::good:
Anyways, hope it never comes back again
Thanks Lace.....
This is already my second turbo which has such problems. When I connect it to the charger, phone says that it's charching but it's not, nor is it draining battery.
e.g.: If battery's on 10%, after 5 hours of charching it will still be on %10. But once I remove it battery starts to drain normally
The phone just won't charge. I've tried everything, wireless chargers, old chargers, cleaning ports.
I have even dissasembled battery and charged it directly and it worked. Nothing seems to be burned on mainboard, but who knows...
Has anyone encountered such a problem? I am quite familiar with solder and phone dissasembly. If anyone can indicate, which chip is responsible for charching, I would try to fix it and post a guide.
Hello Nikoloz17, I haven't experienced this with Turbo but with Razr Maxx. Exact same symtoms was solved by replacing the battery. So, instead of messing with mainboard, you can try a different original battery in the first place.
Hi,
Thanks for your swift reply, but sadly problem is not in the battery, since as I said, removed it and charged it directly with couple of wires and correct voltage. Battery charged to 100%
Plus as I said, I have two of these phones, so if anyone has any ideas just message and i'll mess with them
do wipe data & cach on recovery.
if dosent work, flash stock firmware.
sorry for eng.
I found that mine did this just recently. I had to use a new cable to get it to work.

I've had this happen to two of my Turbos. It use to worry the piss out of me. The thing that fixed it was to use the original charging cord & charger that came with it.
I'm facing same issue after changing the battery to a new one. One thing I noticed is it shows incorrect CPU temperature in recovery. I tried clearing cache, reflashing software, checking connections, different chargers and wires but nothing. It dies get connected through USB.
I believe it's something to do with the temperature sensor. If anyone knows where exactly it is and what can be done please reply. I don't know how many days my phone will last on battery saving mode. T_T
