I installed the latest energy rom, and everything was working fine for the last week or so. Suddenly today, I took my phone off charge (was 100% charged) and it was off. When I try to turn it on, it comes on for a few seconds and then switches off. I've plugged it into a charger, but now it just keeps booting and rebooting. Some times it gets as far as booting up completely, but then reboots.
Please help.
bent battery pins are first thing to check.

Hi to all
Hope that somebody will be able to help me. The battery on my Venue was completely drained last night during a phone call and the phone shut down. I connected the charger, waited for 30 minutes and tried switching it on, but all I got was the info on the screen is a pic of battery with 0% in it. I tried charging it overnight, connecting it to a computer, but nothing happened, each time I try to switch it on, I get that info (battery 0%).
The battery was ok, I was using it for two whole days before it drained so much that it shut down. I have no custom ROM installed, everything is completely from the factory. I tried taking the battery out, SIM card out, SD card out, no luck. Never had my battery completely drained before, so I can't say if this would happen before. Battery worked perfectly until now.
Found an info that it might be due to the battery protection circuit...? Unfortunately, can not take it/send it to Dell as I bought it in US, and I'm in Europe now. Any idea of what I could do? I would really appreciate it...
Thanx!
Ok, here I am, not to jinx it, but I think I resolved it. I tried switching on the phone again, but with no success. Then I tried entering the setup menu (or whatever it's called) by pressing 'volume down' key and on/off switch, in which I succeeded and saw the setup screen. I DID NOT TOUCH OR CHANGED ANYTHING, just left it like that, connected to the wall outlet charger for a few minutes. After the screen shut down on itself, I took out the battery (after unplugging it from the wall outlet) and put it back after a couple of minutes. Then I plugged the phone in the USB slot of my computer and left it like that for 15 minutes. I tried switching it on again and it worked - the battery was on 3% and the status was 'charging'. Now it's on 51% and 'charging'.
I hope that is the end of the problem, I will never let the battery drain out completely again. Just to be on the safe side, I ordered another battery from dell.com.
Hope this helps someone.

Actually im using samsung galaxy y's wall charger!As i had that in my room, and both uses same charger, i didnt change it and kept dell charger in the box only!
Though using data cable of dell for pc
Wall charger takes 2hrs max to charge the venue fully.
One night, i plugged in my phone to charge it. The next day, it wouldnt turn on. When i try to power it on, it shows the samsung logo but doesnt do anything after that. When i plug it into the charger, and then turn it on, it shows the battery bar but with nothing in it for a few seconds even though i charged it for the whole night. My phone was fine before this. I did not download or flash anything recently. the only thing i ever did was upgrade it and root a year ago. please help me.
I have an OG Motorola Droid that was working just fine until I disable a few system apps (which stated "safe to remove") with the System Cleanup app.
Ever since that, the phone dropped to 1%.
When I went home, it died. I hooked it up, charged it a bit (around 20% I believe) - and it was working just fine.
And it all of a sudden went back to 1%.
I tried the Battery Calibration app, it claimed that the phone was still at 1%.
Then the phone Randomly died - BUT when I turned it back on, it was claimed to be charged at 56%.
I tried using it, and it dies Again. Then when I turned it back on, it was claimed to be at 1%.
I went into the CWM-Based Recovery, did a factory reset, wiped Everything (including battery stats), reinstalled the Jelly Bean rom I have on my android and it's kernel and gaaps, and when the phone turned back on, it claimed to be charged at 60%.
Then, it turned Back off.
I turned it back on, claims to be at 1% again.
If I try to charge it, it seems to Stay at 1%.
I swear - I Know the battery is still charging, as it's very warm. I have no idea why this keeps happening.
None of this had happened Until I used System Cleanup.
Even though I did a factory reset, are the disabled apps still disabled?
Also, is there anything else I can do besides buy a new battery? What if the battery isn't the reason why this is happening?
Please help me, and thank you.
(Status Report: I tried to get into the CWM-Based Recovery without the charger to see what happens - it loads up, but shuts down about 3 minutes afterwards.
I have just now removed the battery for about 5 minutes, just put it back on the charger, and now it's at 5%...
Turned the phone off - it wouldn't come on unless I plugged it in. Plugged it in, and now it's at 60%.
Did it again, now it's back to 1%.
Did it again, now it's at 56%.
...someone please help me, lol!)
I'm trying to shut down my phone to charge it faster, but it has refused to do so for weeks. Even removing the battery doesn't help. It starts back up as soon a I plug in the charger. I did a factory reset and rooted the phone last month. I don't know exactly when the issue appeared.
Any idea?
Hey, so, firstly I have a blue life one x. I love the phone and haven't had any problems until now.
I got an android update and my phone restarted, which has happened with the last two updates I got, so I didn't think anything of it. However, my phone was practically dead when this started and it restarted and got to the screen where it says "Android is starting... Optimizing application 1 of 143"
It would get to around 100 and turn off, restart and get to about 100 and turn off again.
I googled around and found a thing called bootloop. By what now seems to be a stroke of luck, my phone eventaully charged to about 40% and I got it to turn on and everything was fine but a few days ago, it died again and I ran into the same problem.
I went back to the boot loop instructions and tried it to no avail.
My phone has a fixed battery, so removing it wasn't an option. I left of the phone off the charger for 30 minutes and held the power button for two minutes(to discharge any remaining power?). Plugged it back in and it went right back to trying to boot back up and optimize apps.
I then removed the case, detached the ribbon that connects the battery to the board, held the power button for two minutes and let it sit for 3 hours. I connected the ribbon, plugged the charger back in and it instantly tried to boot up back into the optimizing screen and turned off.
I did all this again but left it for the past two days and now its back to rebooting over and over...
Things of note:
The light indicator turns red when the phone is connected to a charger, whether the battery ribbon is connected or not.
When it displays the blu splash screen, the optimizing applications screen, or recovery mode, the light indicator is off.
I can get into recovery mode, but I can't do anything before the phone turns off and reboots again.
Any help would be appreciated!
