Hi everyone here, I hope everyone has a good day today. I've got my phone has been dead for quite a while now, the reason is it has the question mark during charging and I can't turn it off. At the first I thought it was the battery problem, I tried open it myself and replaced it with a new battery, however it got worse and it showed question mark battery and the question mark started blinking.
I haven't done checking to the repair shop due to busy with work. What do you guys think about the problem (might be the battery or one of the connector to the battery(?) and how much does it cost to fix it? Thanks in advance
Has it been exposed to moisture?
Is the charging port clean?
Is the battery degraded (less than 80% of its original capacity)?
Is there any swelling, case or display bulging?
If so replace battery asap.
Otherwise, this is a serious problem. Use known good brick and cable. See if that resolves it.
The next step is to replace the battery and check all connections. If that fails replace charging port PCB and/or jack (if it has a replaceable one). If all that fails... mobo failure
Well at the first, I dropped it, then the battery stuck at 50%, then I pressed the back area but still the same, however this phone is already out of warranty so I replaced the battery by myself.

If not the battery or loose connector... something was damaged in the drop. Always use a good case to prevent high G loading damage.
Hey! That means the phone isn't detecting the battery. As I saw you made a repair and you have an XL model, check the flex cable itself, especially where it folds, as it's very sensible and you could have bent it too much, breaking the cable.
I say that because I actually did that mistake, the cable doesn't usually come bent, so you need to bend it so it can fit, and when I did that I actually break it.
Hope this helps you!

I checked the flexible and it seems to be normal to me. I would not mind to buy another battery of it's the case. Thank you! Where did you buy the battery from?

It's very hard to see using just the eye. Maybe if you have other phone try to zoom into the cable to check.
I usually buy this things from ebay. Just check it's a great seller and that the price isn't very cheap neither very expensive.

Hi everyone,
I just charged my phone and the battery seems to be fatter after it was charged. I'm a little worried if this might explode or something. I opened it up and looked and the battery is cool and nothing is leaking from it but the battery looks slightly fat. This has never happened before since I got my Note. Is this normal?
I charged it using my laptops USB port when this happened. Also most of the time I charge it from the wall.
I get worried because batteries can be the main cause of device failure so I don't want to damage my phone.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
I dont think its due to charging.. Do you take it with you in bathroom when you take a shower? Or maybe you sweated while it was in your pocket and it was hot outside?..
I had a LG flip phone years ago and the battery got so fat too.. The reason I believe was that it was in my pocket when I was outside and the temperature was like 45-50 celsius..
maybe, but at the time this happened the phone had been idle and out of my pocket for hours. i'll keep close eye on this one.
thanks.

Not heard of or seen this with Mobile batteries before TBH, however, this is "common" with overcharging of standard batteries in warping the cells etc..
I'm not tech enough to explain - but good call to keep a close eye, On the plus side, they batteries can be picked up dirt cheap on eBay or similar. Fortunately I have 2 as I returned my first Note after a couple of days and had it replaced, I just didn't send em the battery back

If you have warranty then why not go to samsung service center ? Bulging of battery is not a simple issue or sth which can be ignored . As a normal battery it should not bulge , I suggest you to go to SSC and get it checked , if there is some problem they will replace it ( I guess )

You should buy new battery, battery is cheap compared to phone.
there was a guy who owned a HTC Sensation and his phone caught fire whilst he was using it! it burnt his face.

Better buy an original Samsung battery from an official Samsung shop as there are many fake batteries online.....you never know if your battery is faulty or might explode. Better spend around 30-50usd on an original battery instead of being sorry afterwards.
That is simply because it got over-charged in the first case. Else might be a defect. A new battery can solve the issues. :good:
Hello everyone
So a couple weeks ago I took a unexpected swim with my Nexus 6 in my pocket, and haven't gotten it to work since. When I got out I immediately took the phone out of my pocket and turned it off, only to have it boot back into fastboot a few seconds later, turn off, boot to fastboot, and turn of again. It did this several times till it just stayed off. I took it apart, dried it, and cleaned it in Isopropyl alcohol and tried to turn it on but got no response no matter what I did. :crying:
I would consider it fried except whenever I plug it into my charger, the charging icon comes up like normal and even does the battery filling up animation. I replaced the power/volume button strip inside the phone hoping that it was the only problem, but it still would't turn on. I haven't replaced the battery yet because the charging animation shows it's holding charge, but loosing 40ish% after a week and a half of sitting there.
So is there something else I can do, or is it fried? I'm probably going to get a new battery to see if that improves anything, but I honestly don't know what more to do. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
Thanks in advance!
It's fried. Best you can do is send to shop and see if they can salvage it.
Alright, I'll guess I'll have to do that. Thank you for your reply.
I would like to share photos of my phone and seee if anyone vcan help, my situation is kind of similar. I tried to charge after to days of silica drying and cleaning with IPA.
I thin the connection around the battery area isn't secure. Is there a glue that i could buy?
The only thing a shop may do, is give it a bath in a ultrasonic machine, and bake the board. Try a new battery, internal batteries never do well in WD.

How about sticking the charging coil to the new battery? What type of adhesive is needed?

You may still have enough adhesive left over on the coil to stick it to it. Otherwise it doesn't matter much, as long as its connected and not crazy loose, the frame will hold it in place.

I'm missing some screws, so I'll need to buy some new ones.
T3/M3 torx screws, 2mm/3mm height/diameter?
So i installed cm13 then decided to go back to miui, I installed by sideload and everything went well. Pressed reboot system and it has never come on since. The battery was charged but now its flat. Plug into charger red led blinks for awhile then stops. No fastboot or recovery available to me due to lack of power in battery. Have ordered a new battery in the hope it just died ,I have had a few problems charging from completely flat recently anyone got any suggestions? thanks James.

Take phone apart, unplug battery. Plug phone into mains with battery unplugged. While plugging in hold Vol Up, wait for Mi screen to appear, then it will disappear if it doesn't try again unplug charger and plug back in. When it disappears let go of Vol Up then plug the battery back in while still plugged into the mains (be careful I would just push the connector on using the plastic cover, no metal) that should get you into the recovery.

Yea saw your other post my battery is completely dead not the same as the other miui forum. Plugging in to mains with battery unplugged does nothing but I don't think its supposed to, something about certain ammount of charge before most modern phones will boot. I just seen some recent modern phone batteriy tests, where if the phone gets to a certain temp it takes the battery out and can't be stopped. Flashing the note pro with 810 snapdragon might not be a good idea, thermal throttling doesn't work while in TWRP. Will post back when new battery arrives. Thanks Kahun

If this is true then the phone must be completely broke, but nothing happened why would it just break doesn't make sense, surely even if I flashed the wrong rom something would still work (but I didn't).��
The battery won't be here till Wednesday at the earliest.. I have been flashing Roms for 10 years never made a brick before.

I'm sure it's fixable. I never had a brick myself either. My battery failed on me at random so it could be same for you but I was able to turn my phone on using the method I told you.
So the new battery didn't help, not recognized by pc no recovery no fastboot so it's game over for this phone.
So there was a way to fix it, involving removing motherboard and connecting a wire to 2 test points, heat gun needed and loads of time, lost interest and binned it ��. May not have fixed it but I think it would have corrupted boot sector or something, if anyone else gets the same search " mi note pro dead" if you fancy a mission��

Oops got 2 good batterys. You should of said if not fixable I would of had it. Send you the batterys for free if you want. Got a redmi note 3 pro now. The screen had a crack and the back wasn't original (plastic not glass) still got the sim holder, silver not gold (snapped the original) remember

It's virtually impossible to remove the buttons think you need a new mid section, thats why I binned it, snapped when I took the motherboard out, although the midsection is cheap need to seperate the screen.

It is cheap indeed hah! and you do not need to remove the screen? Don't see why you would. It's easy just heat it up and take it off as there's a bit of adhesive.

I actually give up on the removing screen bit unless it smashed, saying that if the mid section is dented may as well replace it. I couldn't see how the button flex came out looked like it was essembled from under the screen not from the back.

Gold is no problem, the link I posted said black gold or silver but the new link says only for the pro so your probably right.If you look closely on the new link the volume flex comes with the mid section. Damn if I had seen this before it would be working now:crying:

New phone
Yes I bought lg g5 and gave it my wife, them broke it for her. Now she got redmi3 note pro,I'm not touching it
My phone is now a brick too! Woo! It wont charge as the sensor thinks the battery is -19.5 C. Oh well downgraded to a Samsung S5 at the moment and just awaiting payday so i can order OnePlus 3
No way, it might comeback to life in a month or 2
How can that happen,?
My Nexus 6 fell and the display broke. Not the screen but the display. The scratch's are inside. My device still works but I can't see anything and the touchscreen doesn't work.
What display/screen replacement should I buy?
I was thinking on buying this one: http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.mx/MLM-576031511-pantalla-touch-marco-motorola-nexus-6-_JM
Please check the link and tell me if it's the right thing to buy. Thanks in advance.
A pic of how it looks:
That's the right one.
That replacement has the frame too, if you want to save money and your frame is still in good condition you can just remove the existing frame from the broken screen, no need to worry about hurting the display as it's already broken so just break it loose, in pieces if you have to lol. Then just get one without a frame, just be sure to check the descriptions to be sure they include adhesive tape pre-applied or get a roll of 2mm 3M double-sided adhesive tape for $2 and do it yourself. While your at it you can also use the tape to re-secure your back cover after removing it if it needs any.
::EDIT::
Here is an example of one without a frame:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B00X...eywords=nexus+6+replacement+screen&th=1&psc=1
That seller it's a $40 difference in price without the frame. Also note how the speaker grills are attached to the frame, NOT the AMOLED. Keep that in mind when taking off your broken screen from the frame. If you are unsure if you can do it and feel safer just getting it with the frame, take 10 minutes before ordering and just try to seperate the broken AMOLED from the frame, if you succeed and find it by looking at it just how the new AMOLED panel would attach to the old frame then save $40 and get just the panel, it's already broken, might as well give it a shot, if you don't think you can attach the new panel to the frame yourself after removing the broken panel, order the one with the frame. ?
Thanks guys. I've got some more questions.
What process should I follow to replace the screen, should I dissemble everything? Any video tutorial you would recommend?
And, I've noticed that the phone doesn't heat up when I charge it as it did before (I have a Turbocharger), is the device ok? Is it normal that it doesn't heats up?
It's normal to have it not heat up when charging. Mine doesn't.
Jerryrig Everything has a good teardown video you can use.
What seems weird to me is that the phone usually heated up even if i wasn't using it (I guess fast charge) but now it doesn't.
Is there a way to know if it's charging or know the battery level other than looking and the screen? Because I can't see anything.
You should let the battery completely discharge, so the device turns off. That will help to prevent electrical damage to the components when you are disassembling the phone.
Letting the battery drain to zero is bad for the battery, for one. For two, the battery will be one of the first things disconnected, thus there will be no component damage.

Typed up a long response then posted and ticket was expired lol. All I can think of right now is the phone still works, just can't see anything. Let the battery die, call the phone to see if it's dead or rings/vibrates. After it's dead plug her back up and see if she starts, can call again to check if it's in fact booted into Android. Maybe someone else can think of a better way, I take it you don't have the LED enabled for charging so that sucks. Like the previous poster said, it is not advised to let the battery drain 100%, one time however won't hurt, just don't do it repeatably. Hope you successfully get her up and running again I still have my pre-order Nexus 6, never a screen protector, just a Seidio Dilex Pro case and not a scratch on the beauty, someone needs to make a SD 835 phone with dual front facing speakers before I upgrade!

I cracked my screen a while ago and just got the time to do the install, but as some of you may know the adhesive holding this turd together is very tough. After blasting with a hair dryer and buying an automotive suction cup I finally got the glass off but it cracked too bad to be reused. I cant do anything with the device now. I've held all buttons for a restart but the broken pixels light up for a split second and then it vibrates for a quick second. as i continue to hold it runs through that process over and over. Even plugging it in to the wall I cant even get a charge light. The only cause i could think of is too much heat. i replaced the screen on a note 5 with no issues. It just makes no sense that it doesn't do anything from peeling the rear glass off. Unfortunately I'm at the parents house where I'm the only android user so i cant plug into a PC as i have the 2 sided typeC cable.
Any Ideas?? As I'm Stumped. And to top it off my spare phone an unlocked Pixel 2 is having the No Sim issue.... Fun times.... It just finished the factory reset and still wont detect my Verizon SIM or ATT. So that's cool, haha.
Thanks for the help. Much appreciate2

Stupid question did you reconnect the fingerprint sensor back in? It might need that to be connected to work.
Recheck all the connections again and ribbon cables for any damage maybe it got loose or heat damaged or cut.

Yes its been plugged in and the only thing i damaged was the foam on top of the lock button but its barely peeled back. no visible damage to the cable its self. and with the back cover the only part i took off the only exposed cable is really the fingerprint scanner. The scanner does though have some visible heat damage. there's little spots on it that wasn't there before. I think that's the cause of the problem.
could it be possible that i overheated the battery and now the device is in some kind of protection mode? the device could be thinking that it could catch fire or something? I know that Li-on batteries are pretty fragile to temperature.

If you have a multimeter you can check the battery voltage. If you have voltage then it should be okay but maybe the life of it won't be as long as before. Does the phone charge when you plug it in?
The fingerprint sensor might be the problem. I would replace it as with the battery as well.
Best bet have a Samsung service center look at it, it might be something else.
Good luck with it hope you get it figured out!

Battery specs should be 4000 mah, 15.4 Wh and 3.85 V.
Even though it will show voltage it might not have enough amperage to run. So might check for amperage as well.
Might want to hook up a light circuit to the battery and place the meter in between the + battery to + side of light (meaning the same line) to measure amps.
If it doesn't charge from the wall might as well replace the battery.
If that doesn't work most likely a dead phone (motherboard).
For any voltage values for the motherboard, sorry no idea if you can find that info.
You've been quite the help Blue. Thank you so much. Will be home tmrw and will check on the device. I'll be sure to come back with findings to return the favor. Thanks again! Hope you had a good holiday and Happy New Year!
