Folks,
Numerous searches later I still can't find a thread I thought I read here a month ago. My topic id is to help anyone else find this info. if they need it.
Anyway, I recently hard-reset my Wallaby pw10b1 and it never came back!
I've hard-reset it consistently for the last few months, no problems. This time it went out and stayed out.
Any thoughts on getting it powered back on?
I tried getting into Bootloader but there is no response, no life whatsoever.
There are 3 contact points under a rubber gasket on the back are these Battery tests? How do you cross them to get the battery to reset?
Thanks
had a similar problem, I've removed the battery for 5-10 minutes and when I reinserted it the device powered up as if after a hard reset.
Totally dead

I have a similar problem. I tried to charge the battary it is completely dead with a red color on the charging led. I read in the manual removing the battary must done by survice. Is there anyproblem I should be aware of with removing the battary and reinserting it as you did? Thanks.
May someone please help me?
This morning I tried to turn on my device (at night I turn the radio off) but it was dead, no way to wake it up... So I put it on charge in the craddle but all that changed was a fix red light on the left.
I tried to remove the battery bat it didnt have any effect.
I tried to hard reset, but nothing.
This is the end of a horrible week, in fact I've had also had huge problems with battery duration, device hot burning and loosing all charge in two hours, so yesterday I had to hard reset and restore all data with Sprite Backup. Everything seemed to work fine until this morning.
I have to say that the last application I installed before having all these troubles was SpriteBackup! Might it be the point?
Please help me.
Wow, after removing battery once, twice... testing, charging-recharging the device woke up.
the battery is 0% and now charging, but I'm afraid the problem might come back.
I read some threads about issues in restoring data (also causing several hard resets): does it happen only with windows backup application or even with spritebackup? It should be a chance, but it's after installing spritebackup that my device (before working fine) started having charge issues and hard boiling temperatures (as it it was hard working in background all the time).
thanks to all who will help me understand solve these doubts.
Now it's charging but the divice is very hot... I never noticed it before :?:
Well, went to a PDA shop this morning and got a feedback that there are few cases of hard reset problems.
I know i have them.....
1 tip... don't charge you XDAII overnight.
I really dunno the theory behind it but just
Try it and feedback :wink:
I don't agree. Since I bought my xda2 in Nov till now, it's on charger every night w/o fail.
I also disagree, i recharge over night, from 9 PM to 6 AM. never reset
Take off wisbar or any other application that tends to hang, and keep your startup to a minimum to avoid hard resets.
i also charge overnight not had one hard reset yet
Err...i actually meant this topic for those with those are facing hard reset problem every now and then....
If you dun face them then cheers...but if you do face this problem.....no harm trying.
My XDAII hard reset itself twice in three days. Day 1 it was fully loaded with softwares, but it suddenly hard reset at abt 5:30pm, I didn't load any software after that (all factory default) and it did the same thing on the third day at abt the same time.
I know its hard to think abt anything relevent regarding this tip...well, those with hard resets problem should try it out. If it doesn't work out, well, what can i say and what you gotta loose? :lol:
Hi azbro, I'm with you on this one, if you are unlucky to experience frequent hard resets, it is worth checking out all options, to try and get to the root cause, there are so many different supposed reasons, battery, radio, software conflicts and so on, maybe these devices are not all the same, and the cause for hard reset could be different for each of us.
Hard Resets
I believe unwanted hard resets have a lot to do with the battery.
AFAIK softwares do also contribute sometimes but mainly due to overloading of memory causing leaks thus unrecoverable by operating systems.
Back to the battery.
Based on lots of owners complaints the Xda I/II battery has a nack of self-draining its own power. Suspect the contacts of the charger seems to cross when not inserted straight-down properly. Sometimes the battery doesn't get charged at all.

Battery charging...
Hi!
Here is my piece of experience.
I had hard-reset problem when I was using standard Power plug & AC Adapter. But when I migrated to charge my device via USB & Cradle, the problem disappeared!
Maybe it happened because of our high voltage lines (220V). And one more, every time I was taking off my device from the charger I got static electrical shock
BTW, who is still experience this issue try my Restorator utility to save your time on restoring your soft & everything on each unexpected hard-reset! It's FREE!
Cheers
Can I have a link to your restorer utility?

Battery Drain Induced Hard Reset?
Don't think I can simulate it again as I myself dunno what caused it.
Routine sync and charge via cradle today I happened to notice the battery power was depleting slowly.
Waited for awhile to monitor and the battery power indicator still was not turning. Today battery plugins all indicate charging but power keeps on draining.
Switched view to Start-Settings-System-Power in the Control Panel displays same result.
Removed unit from cradle and recharge now the power turned.
What was that all about?!
:roll:

Here are my tips:
If your problem with charging via cradle occurred more than once, then there is a cradle or battery problem.
Try to disconnect your power cord from cradle and use only USB connection when charging
Also, try to play with your battery. Fully discharge it & leave it for at least 3 hours, then charge it via cradle auxiliary charging slot
Finally, borrow one battery from your friend and check your system stability with the new one
Suddenly, I cannot charge my XDA I. I've tried the cradle and the car charger but neither works. I've tried soft resets but nothing! There is no light on at all. When I go to charging screen, the bar isn't moving.
Any ideas what might be wrong?
I've only got about 50% charge left....Need help quickly.
I have had this exact same problem occur twice in the past year. In both instances a "hard" reset fixed the problem. Don't forget to perform a backup of all your data first, then restore after the "hard" reset.
I went a step further. I removed my battery and put it in the freezer for about 20 minutes. Then I reinstalled it. During this process a hard reset was
obviosuly done. When I reassembled it, it seemed to charge up.
I should have tried the hard rest first but I've read that the freezer can sometimes bring rechargeable batteries back to life.
Thanks for your help whip
Hmm....I will have to remember the freezer trick...I am sure I will have to revive my battery someday. Thanks
It's been 4 months and my XDA is still going strong.
The freezer trick really brought my battery back to life! :shock:
Starting last night my 3 day old V10 has begun rebooting itself randomly. It happens when I text, look at images in the gallery, reading Facebook or Reddit, taking pictures.
Has anyone else seen this behavior? What could be the cause of it? And how do I stop it from happening?

I'm looking at the V10 for a upgrade from Verizon now that I'm off contract. Haven't seen this discussed as a V10 issue from my research. My current phone has a removable battery that started randomly rebooting. Maybe the battery is not seated properly. Try shutting it off, take off the back cover, pull and re-seat the battery after checking the contacts.
I'd take that badboy back to the VZ store for an exchange
Try uninstalling any sketchy apps then do a factory reset.
Take it back, get a replacement
Hey what did you do to resolve this? I have the same issue
also maybe it was just me but i noticed it when i was charging my phone. On a side note have you noticed when charging the phone and the screen off, the second screen maybe every 25 seconds blinks for a split second?
I am also having the same problem. I just got off the phone with LG product support. The lady I talked to said she had not had any calls regarding this issue yet. She recommended putting the phone in safe mode to see if its a downloaded app that is causing it or if that does not work to do a factory reset on the phone. She really didn't have any idea though. I don't think the safe mode approach will be any help but i might try a factory reset.
Factory reset doesnt work either it still reboots on its on. Mine is off and cant come back on
