Hi all.
My phone seems to be broken. It's almost completely dead. When I press the power button the led blinks red three times. When I connect it to power it blinks red once every other second. Anyone knows what this red blinking means? I'm sure it's a code for something...
I've tried removing sd and sim and also disconnecting and connecting the battery cable with no result. Anything else I could try or is it just a matter of sending it away and being without phone for some weeks?

Battery is completly drained. Charge it about half an hour and should work.
Yeah, I've been pretty scared too when this happened for first time to me. It is really weird behavior. Atleast it is working again.

Yep, you're right. 20 minutes and the phone came alive.
Is it just me or did they completely miss this out in the manual? Could have been worth mentioning if you ask me...

i've had this too... is it ok to charge via a PC or does it have to be directly from the charger?

I guess its the same but charging it via the usb will take more time to get it alive again
HELP
my phone can´t charge anyway.... i let it charging in the wall during all the morning and "nothing"... even a minimum led light...
so i connected to the usb in my pc and the led started blinking once in each three seconds...
blink + 1 + 2 + 3sec AND REPEAT
so... i let it in usb for maybe 40 minuts... and.... nothing again... nothing changed and the led continuous to blink at the same way.
so, i tried to plug again in the wall, and no led light, but suddently led blinked this way:
blink / blink / blink + 1 + 2sec and repeat three times so stops, no more lights, and it happend again if i tryied to power on the phone...
and now, nothing happens.... no lights... even i fi try to power on, even if i plug in the wall...
mini pro is dead.
i don´t know what to do
tried pressing home + power buttons for minuts and nothing
tried pressing back button for minuts and nothing
tried to connect to PC companium and nothing, no phone connected
tried using SEUS but it can´t connect to the phone as it has no battery charge
any ideas.... please?
and let me know... is this any issue from the ROM? i just installed CM7Mini V7... it´s the first time i had the battery drained... so i ask... if there is a way to awake my mini, will the same issue happen again ????? I can´t forget the battery draining?????
HEEEEEEEEEELLLLLPPPPP
3 blinks mean not enough battery energy to boot. Maybe your USB port is just brocken...
Try using FlashTool to flash a stock ROM to see if it works, because with SEUS first you have to connect your phone to be recognised and afteerwards updated or repaired. Maybe FlashTool is the solution...
I have made a post with instructions and links to flash with FlashTool. Just search for
2.1.1.A.0.6 GREEK .ftf
Another possible solution is what guys have mentioned above... To let it charge while it seem dead and it'll be alive in some minutes.

(you probably meant no offline charging)
It really doesn't matter... I have tried almost every single ROM. And dryed the battery completelly, but I was always able to charge it.

I dont know what was wrong but phone now works like a charm. I dont have that phone but my friend does and it didn't happened again
I got same problem and tried charging my phone but it didn't work. Please suggest me what else I can do.
Not sure if this did the trick, but after I had the battery out for about 5 minutes, it started after inserting back.

Can you please switch off the phone and then try charging, just to see if the phone is being turned on automatically, which is the natural thing to do. Also check if the usb is being recognized when connected to a PC, to make sure that your cable is not broken.
Regards
E
Don't worry dude... same happened with me... ders nothing to worry about..
First of all.. remove battery for 15 mins... den put it in.. plug the power cable... DO NOT TURN ON....
The green light will glow... wait.. wait... the orange light must appear after 2 mins.. if not... just wait for it... it will go on...
I think it is caused when battery gets extremely empty... maybe... but it worked for me...

Try to take off the battery and retry charging
There may be a problem in your charger micro USB jack or the phone port, so try removing and inserting one or two times. This happened to me too many times.
Normally after a complete drain, sometimes the red light starts blinking after few seconds/minutes sometimes & then onwards there is a pattern of blinking red & then it starts showing the battery symbol when the LED starts from red.
The blinking red may be for ever, it may indicate a cable/micro USB pin/port problem. But as a coincidence I found it on miniCM10+nAa jb2 & I have never seen such on miniCM 7x. No known such problem due to kernel/ROM is yet proved!
If nothing works, charge the battery with an external charger available in the market and solve the problem & charge again!
:good:If it works press thanks!!!

I cant pull out the battery in my 2010 mini. I removed the white battery wire near camera and
tried to charge it but its very difficult.. After 10 mins of charging in my hand. There wasnt a single red blink.I touched the terminal on my tounge and the current sense was pretty good.. Do i need to replace the battery.
So today, I am trying to wake my x10 again one more time and I try to plug my old x10 to the wall plug and it's not even charging at all. No red blink. Then, I try to plug to my PC and the red blink turn on, taking forever to charge. I did charge this morning before I leave to school and when I came home, it's still doing the same thing again. I don't know how I can fix or turn it back on like I did before. Please help and the charging problem too.

Did you try to wipe battery stats in order for the phone to refresh the battery percentage again? Did you try a different wall plug?

Yes, I did try the different wall plug. Also, I can't turn it back to recovery to wipe the battery stats because it start to take very long time to charge.

Hi sir, do you have time? I cant figure out what is wrong with my x10. When i try to flash those Generic Stock Rom, i get to have errors flashing. It aborts sometime when flashing system.sin and other sin depending on the tft file... i dunno what version my phone is but my pc detects it with flashmode. When im using Seus, it fails flashing in about 90% of the process... when booting my phone, just a quick vibrate with green flashes once. Do u have skype account? Hope u have time and can help me. Most of the links in xda our outdated. And i know my phone is outdated too. Thanks and more power
I just bought a new Xperia Go. Yesterday I was using it until the battery drained completely. Then I charged for the first time and stupidly I tried to turn it on. The first time I charged it showed the battery icon, but then when I disconnect it, it won't turn on. I plugged it on again but this time it didn't show the battery icon. The red led is turned on, but I can't get it to turn on. I tried vol up and power button at the same time but nothing. The worse thing is I can't remove and reinsert the battery because I don't know how and I don't have the required tools.
Please help! ;(
May the battery is completely drained!! Just plug-in the charger n after sometime it'll show the battery symbol

Ur phone is probably in the 1st situation of the following( xda calls this battery cycle i think )
1. Dead phone(no response at all)
2. Phone cannot boot but when trying to boot it shows a red led(which means the phone has a tiny amount of battery left)
3.Phone is charging and can boot
4. Phone is charged properly(100%)
So, in order to get to situation 4 u just need to charge ur phone for a while

This happened to me today. Last night I left my phone charging on my PC through the USB port. PC was off, but USB is still powered. Phone was on.
The next morning, after I woke up I noticed that when I pressed the power button nothing happened. I plugged the cable off my PC, then back on, and the led was staying lit up red. Nothing when I pressed the power button again. No fastboot, nothing.
Finally, I plugged the phone using the original Sony adapter to the mains. It showed the Sony logo and it started charging. At least, so I thought. After a couple of hours, I checked the charging progress and nothing, battery was showing empty. So I tried to power the phone on while still charging. It booted Android and it was showing charging, but 0%. I powered the phone back off, it immediately started charging and battery progress was about 80%.
My guess is that somehow battery stats files were corrupted/deleted. Luckily the phone did not get bricked. I am on Android 4.0 ICS.

It seems XSola has issue with this. My previous phone which is Xsola did suffer from this issue multiple times though. On my ex-XU (too) never had this problem and in my current XP i've had once.
