Is my Mi5 dead because of battery drain? - Xiaomi Mi 5 Questions & Answers

Two days ago my phone turned off because of the battery which discharged during night. The next day I tried to charge it, but I only got a flashing red light. I decided to leave it under charge while checking similiar events on internet, who suggested to leave the phone under charge for at least 12hrs. Since i had to go out, i left it at home under charge for at least 20hrs and nothing changed.
If I connected the phone to my computer, it wouldn't read it, so i connected two pins on the back of the phone and found out that it is detected as Qualcomm HS-USB QDLoader 9008 (COM3), which means it's hardbricked.
How is it possible? What should I do? I've already bought a new battery, shipping is in 2 weeks.

I have same problem.One morning I woke up,my alarm was on,than I saw phone gone into bootloop and then died because of low battery.I connected it to charger but no sings of life.I left phone 2 days to charge because I tought it was deep discharged,but no sings of life.I also tryed two pin method but didn't woked out and my PC didn't show me Qualcom HS-USB etc driver.Now phone only shows red LED when I try to turn it on ,and today somehow I managed to boot into my custom ROM and everything worked for 2 but I had 0% and phone turned off.I think that my battery is dead so I am getting new this morning I hope it will work because this battery shows when on charger 50% or 0%.

Weird brick? situtation

The problem started in Korea, when I was trying to charge the phone before I got on the flight back home. The phone was at 5% the night before so I just let it die overnight so I could charge it in the morning. I plugged it in via USB on my netbook and let it sit for 30 minutes but did not show the charging battery animation. I had tried a different battery but was a no go so I thought it was a faulty hardware, from humidity or something like that. The usb cable was somewhat loose on the phone so I thought I'll give it another go at home.
So I plugged the phone into the new usb cable which was snug and phone started getting hot. Then after a while, I tried the unbrick method again. Then it put me into download mode so I did something I don't remember and got the phone back up again and realized the battery was COMPLETELY dead.
I let it charge to full and unplugged it. Then after an hour or two the problem came back. But this time, the phone is neither getting hot nor responding to the jig. I tried the unbrick method as well but no luck.
Anyone have similar problems?
I'm on Cognition 4.5 and had absolutely no problems yet.

[Q] X8 Battery Charging Problem

Today morning, I turn on my phone and I saw the battery is 80%, I put it in my bag. After 1h, I take my phone out and I found that my phone was very very HOT, and the battery went down to 10%! (normally my phone just drop 1-2% in idle mode)
After that, I pull out the battery and put it in agn. (I guess the phone turned on automatically, but I dint noticed bout it) After few hour, I tried to turn on my phone, and the LED showing red colour and keep blinking..I couldnt turn on my phone.
Now, I cannot recharge it when the phone is off, the LED din't blinking anymore.
I have tried to recharge my phone with charger, but it failed..I have tried to connect it to the pc too ..but it failed as well..
Anyway to fix this problem? Thanks.
Sorry for my bad english..
try get new battery maybe
I had a very similiar problem. My phone had been discharging battery in 3 hours from 100% to 1%. Once, the battery discharged completely and I wasn't able to recharge it, so I decided to buy a second battery. In my case it didn't help - the other battery was discharging exactly like the original one.
As I had a 2-year warranty, I returned my phone to the shop and guess what?
They replaced a mainboard in my phone (for free of course). Now everything is ok.

You try connect your phone to charger and charge more. Sometimes if your battery is recharged may not be detected for 5-30 minutes

Blinking red led

Just happened after nowhere. I got my hands on a z1 from a friend with a fully charged battery. Since I didnt have a simcard on the phone I turned it off. Now it wont turn on and the the red light in blinking when charging. Looks like a discharged battery but i dont know what to do. It's plugged on a 2A charger for about half an hour now but there's no sign of life. is there anything I can do?
PS: the bootloader is locked and I didnt messed with the system in anyway, it's was just factory reset

Use the official charger (that is 1.5A) and report back..
Else try to send it to service
Left it charging the whole night but still just the blinking red led. Since it's not on warranty anymore I don't think it's worth sending it to service. I'll penalty try to reconnect the battery to see if it helps
@Castro27 Try flashing the stock firmware via flashtool its very easy and it will bring life to your phone...
I have a strange problem. My Z1 was in the original dock charger over the night. The alarm woke me up in the morning and the battery was 100% full. An hour later it did not switch on. I have tried to put it to a original USB charger and a red light is flashing fast and continuously. I have tried to press power+vol down key and nothing happens. Is my battery dead? I don't mean fully discharged, but dead.

Xperia Z1 charging very very slowly...

Hello.
I bought xperia Z1 yesterday (I got it with around 22% of battery). Firstly when I got home phone was at 18% and for 1.5 it charged to 25%. I was confused with a message "21 hours remaining to get fully charged" and when I went into phone information, I saw that battery could last 3 days. Nevertheless, I went out clubbing with 25% and returned home with around 15%. I thought you need to format the battery (as I did with my previous phones) so I was using it until phone turned off completely. Phone was put to charge at 4 a.m. into a power socket using original charger which I've got with the phone and when I woke up at 11 a.m. it was not charged. It couldn't even get turned on. It displayed nothing but red light.
Then I pressed volume up + switch on/off button, it vibrated 3 times then I put it into computer to get a USB charge. Now after an hour, phone has charged up to only 6% of battery but I'm glad I can see something (meaning, it shows how much it is charged - I couldn't see anything after I woke up and disconnected it from a socket).
I searched the internet and couldn't find any solution. I see people charging their Z1's within 3 hours max and mine hasn't charged with 8 hours spent plugged in a socket. What also worries me is that it charges really slowly, a lot slower than it should be.
I'd be thankful if anyone can help me.

Are you charging it with the original cable and charger? Try another charger.
Yes, I'm charging with original adapter and original usb cable.
I solved the problem. Problem was the original usb cable. It's perfect looking but god knows what's happening inside, it could be a factory error - it's not supplementing enough current from adapter to phone.
I solved the problem by using original adapter and usb cable from my htc wildfire s. Now it's charging as it should, it'll be full within 2 hours or so (phone is turned on now and I'm making calls so it's under stress).

Complex problem

Hello everyone.
I'm currently having problems with my device.
It all started like a week ago when it couldnt charge the phone with my qc original charger. After that - i've gone to repair store and they repaired. At then i was rocking Lineage OS.
After i got my phone back, i switched from LOS to Miui 9.5.2.0 through miflash, wiping everything. and then updated to 9.5.5 via OTA and after that to 9.6.2.0 It charged normally. Installed all my apps and after a few hours it all went down. Battery was again discharging, when I put it on charger got no response from the device. After that battery was at 0 percent.
I tried to turn it up, it was blinking red. Let it during the night on charger, it went like 60% and thought - maybe wasnt good flash, i again reflashed it, to again 9.5.2 and from then after flashing I turned it on, it was 11% and again started decreasing and eventually dead again. And for 2 days i let it on charger and no luck. Any idea? Yeah, I bought original replacment battery if needed.

Anyhow, i tried the test point method. When i press test point things and connect it to laptop - laptop shows the qualcomm 9008, but if I let go the test pins, it sounds like i disconected the device. any help? Could deep flash cable do the trick?
Already tried charging with another charger and cable?
