My LG P500 can't switch on while connected to battery charger - Optimus One, P500, V General

Hi! I've a problem... It's impossible turn on my phone while connected to the PC's USB or charger. If I unplug the USB cable and plug in once again the phone stucks in recharge mode, no possibilities to turn it on. To turn on the phone I must unplug the cable, then can switch on the P500. It's a bug or a P500 feature?
Thanks in advance...
LG P500, ROM devoid #froyo-final, kernel 2.6.32.41 Franco V18.1

Was your phone's battery dead when you started charging? If yes, then you should let the phone charge and it will start up automatically. It DOES NOT start until it's charged to a minimum degree.

Battery has 60% charge yet, also at 90% or 100% battery charge the phone won't switch on if the USB cable is plugged in. When I unplug the cable the phone can be switched on. Strange...

I noticed this lately on my phone too... I thought it was just signs of my phone's age until I saw that we have the same ROM and kernel o_0
I'm not sure which kernel version or ROM it started on since I've been trying out different ones in the past 2 months. I've had horrible battery life since trying out new things too...

Hi! I've founded the culprit! It's the Franco Kernel 18.1-CFS. I've installed the ROM LOL 1.4.2 wich have 2.6.32.39 Kernel by Paolo and the phone switched on with the usb cable plugged in. Then I replaced the kernel with 2.6.32.41 Franco Kernel V18.1 and the phone cannot switch on with the usb cable in. I think to report this to Franco by email. Cheers!

[Q] battery issue? decrease of % when the phone is charging

Hello i've having a small problem with my battery of my xperia x10. i'm putting the phone for charging and instead of increasing the charging % is decrease it but i dont know why. sometimes i'm leaving the phone for charging all night and when i'm waking up i saw that my battery is not fully charged. is this a rom problem or battery problem?
btw i'm having lock bootloader, stock kernel and this custom rom Achotjan_Stock_Remplacement_And_Firmware Update
thanks a lot
It is normal....battery heats up and then starts draining, just unplug it for 5mins and then replug...now it will charge normally...and dont put your phone on charging whole night...that may decrease battery life...
Try it !!!
because nowadays batteries don't charge all the time! They're intelligent, so they charge up to 100%, stop charching, its going down till 92-94% and then recharging up to 100%, and then stop again..... so thats why even if you let you're phone charge for 10h you might end up with a 92% charged phone!

Bad usb cable? Or bad charger.
I have a usb cord that will charge my x10 but not Ion.
From market get 'current widget' app. With it you can read how much amps coming from charger. A usb charger should be about 400 ma, milli-amps or .4 amps.

Ok so that means the charger is working.
Did you notice the battery temp? compare the temps from before, during, and when it drops .
From 0% to 100% charge takes you how long? Should be 1-3 hours.
Leaning to bad battery as reason.

I have the same problem on x10 mini u20i.. I had in on stock, and now I have it on miniCM7-2.2.1.. I've been reading a bit, and I think it is a hardware issue..
My phone simply won't charge, if I plug it into a regular charger.. The phone will seem like it charges, but in reality the battery is draining (might even be draining faster than when is simply unplugged).
If I leave it charging through the night, the phone will be completely dead in the morning, and sometimes I have to leave the phone connected to my pc for hours, before it gains a little bit of juice and starts actually charging.
In fact the only way (I know of) to charge my phone, is to connect it to a pc with a USB cable, and even then I mostly have to connect the phone, disconnect it and the connect it again for the charging to initiate.
I read somewhere, that a guy was only able to charge his phone with the charger from the cigarette lighter in his car. He mentioned (from what I remember), that the cigarette lighter ran at 12V, but the normal cell phone chargers runs at 6V, and that causes problems for the x10 (mini). I have no idea if he is right though.. Does anybody know if this is a valid point or BS?
Anyway for a quick workaround, charge the phone from you PC

BS . 12 volts is the input volts for a car charger. All micro-USB chargers should run @ 5 volts and vary in amps. Your phone has smart charger built into kernel. The charger itself is just a power supply. Kernel controls the applied amps.

Yeah I kinda thought so.. I would think that it made no difference where the power came from, but my phone seems to disagree.. It simply does not charge, unless I plug the USB cable into a computer..
And it will only take seconds of googling to find out, that lots of people have this or similar problems..
Anyway, OP and others, the only answer I've found, is that the microUSB port easily gets dirty, and the right amount of wiggling with the cord or cleaning the microUSB port with a dry (!) toothbrush and a vacuum cleaner or air blower might help..

You'll probably need a new charger, but a generical USB charger is very, very cheap.
Before buying the new one, is useful testing your old device this way:
Please, try to charge your mobile using a computer. If you charge normally you've confirmed that your trouble is in the charger (since in that case your battery is OK and your USB cable and connectors are also OK).
But if you can't charge even in your computer, please do experiment another USB cable. If even so you can't charge, the culprit will be the battery or the USB connector (less probable).
I'm not sure if this is relevant but I had a simular issue like this but not all the time. Was a kernel issue, but before you jump into flashing a new kernel or rom, have you tried charging the phone after you've switched it off?

I had the same problem on my xperia x10 mini, when being charged it increases at first, after a few minutes the % decreases, What I did is I flashed a new kernel the nAa kernel for gingerbread and installed a custom rom, which is CM7 2.2, and voala!, I was surprised that its working again, I send the phone to sony ericsson support center and they said it had board damage, but what I think is that there was a proble on the kernel update to eclair or 2.1 that's why it happened, so just try flashing a new kernel using the flashtool, gud luck mate...

Install a 2.3 based rom mate this should remedy the problem
Requires unlock bootloader first if you have not done already

[Q] I9300 not charging, ROM related issue non hardware fault

Morning all.
I have an issue were my battery won't charge even though its plunged into stock charger stock USB cable (Samsung)
I have tried charge control app. But still same results with or without the app. Or trying different charging currents.
I have been trying to search why this is happening. But frustration is setting in thus my post.
Any bodies got any ideas or directions I could try to help find why the phn won't charge.
To try explain a bit more, if I unplug the USB cable and plug it back in - come back and check battery level a few minutes later if - if the battery level is not changed - unplug / plug back in........... Come back in a few check battery lvl if its increased leave the phn plugged in and the phn charges.
But like now for instance the phn was plugged in overnight battery lvl was still at 45% this morning. Unplugged / plugged back in.... charging.... 50% but since typing this post ..battery lvl is back to 45%.
Its most frustrating as its my business phn and it needs to be 100% in the morning...
Problem was not here with ICS.. But ever since Samsung update to jelly been I've had this problem for months.
Then decided to try tamasek ROM and kernel with optimized battery usage.. Still same issue.
Pls help..

I charge my phone during the night but some times, the phone doesn't charge completly, about 70~80%, with official charger.
I have try 2 other chargers, an Ipad charger (5.1V 2A) and ZTE charger (5V 700mA).
With Ipad charger, the phone have charge great at 100% during 1 week, now, it charge only at 79%...

All the times, when I play games on my phone (without wifi /GPS/Mobile Network) my battery drains faster than it load (with all my chargers).
Is it normal ?
=============================================================================================
So I have 3 questions:
-My battery drains faster than it load when the phone is in use, is it normal ?
-sometimes, my batterie won't charge at 100 %, it charge only at 79~85%, does the batterie have a problem ?
-How to solve all my problems ?
I have bought my phone they are about 7months. My phone is rooted with CWM and bootloader unlock.
I have test the software running on my phone, they have no software running anormaly during the charge or discharge...
My phone autonomy is 1h30 in game. And one day without playing.
Please help me, I don't know where is the problem
Ok I've found
Ok, I've found, my USB cable is dead...

[Q] Battery Wtf

So i just played with Custom ROMs to find the best for me...
But from one point my Phone f*cked up the battery detecting...
CM9 and CM9 detect the battery at 45% and then he Level instantly just drop to 0%...
I cant even restart my phone, so i guess the battery really went out...
So how can i fix, that the ROM would not detect it 45% but 3-4% ?
And let me fully chage my phone ?
Stock rom Always Detect it 100% and then randonly the phone shut down in random times (cuz it drops the level to 0%)
I've tried the "Fully-Charge, Fully-Discharge" But the ROM still detect the Battery wrong...
Even tried to delete the battery stats...
Any solution, or idea ?
I currently use CM with the built-in CM9 kernel...
I think its battery problem.use a new battery.ur prblm will be solved

How old is the battery? What charging cable are you using and what is the cable plugged into?
If the battery is more then a year old it could be 'tired' and not holding a charge correctly (trying another known good battery in your phone will determine this, as will trying your battery in another phone, and if it works well you may have more issues to deal with). If you got the phone second hand, you have no way of knowing the battery's history. Repeated overcharging is also not recommended, as well as leaving the battery in very hot places as it can damage the onboard circuitry in the battery.
Cheap aftermarket (non OEM) USB cables are not that great imo, they are generally not as well made and soon get loose connections, resulting in poor connectivity (charging with a bad cable can also damage the battery). Always use the original cable or a good quality aftermarket one, like Belkin.
Charging the phone from a USB port on a PC or laptop (and/or via a USB hub) is not as efficient as charging it directly from a wall mains USB adapter, because the power often gets interrupted. Ideally for the best charge you should turn the phone off and use a wall/mains socket USB lead, so as give a direct, constant, power supply to charge a battery. A typical full charge is done in two hours. If you charge this way and the battery still has issues buy a new one.

First of all, the Phone is manufactured in 11W41 (2011 Week #41) and the battery in 11W39 (2011 Week #39)
I use a tipical Micro USB charger which does not connect to the wall with USB but the cable directly integrated into the adapter...
And the phone's shipped official cable to charge throught my PC...
The battery worked fine before i forgot to delete battery stats and flashed a ROM...
After that, all ROM is getting fake battery data...
After using my phone i noticed:
-When the phone displays 70-80% charge, the battery actually have 10-15%
-When the battery reach 0% the phone not just jumps to 0% but the Phone shut down within a half second (as no more energy)
-When i charge it to 3-4% the phone show 80% again...
-So i can charge it to about 10 or max 15% when the OS detect 100% and does not charge it further more, which prevent me from properly re-calibrate the battery stats, cuz 10-15 will be always the max charge of the battery...
Now i'm looking for some kind of Mod / App that fake the Battery level to the OS (for example lock it to 5% and the OS continue to charge the battery) i know its dangerious cuz if i'm not aware i'll overcharge it and it will die permanently, but i have no better idea ATM...
Update: Sometimes after my phone dies from no remaining electron in the battery It displays 5% charge when i switch it on while connected to a charger (the only way i can switch it on) And starts to increase.. (5-6-7-8 etc..)
But sometimes it instantly jumps up to 70-80% if i think right when the screen switches of..
So i enabled "No-screen-off-whili-on-charger" and letit charging..
Will notice you about the result...

try reflash stock.ics ftf should fix this
Already tried, the Stock rom always showed 100% charge, and when the battery ran out, just powered off...
(Jumped from 100 to 0 instantly)
As i mentioned, in the reply you quoted, today it started charging from 0...
It went good, but somewhy, it just stopped at 26% and not a single volt went into the Battery...
As i Pulled out the Cable, the indicator jumped to 100 instantly...
Can you link several stock ROMs ?
I've tried with the 4.0.4 Android
but maybe the 2.3 can still work with it...

but i think theres some HW damage. even if not rhe battery maybe some config chip is broken or whatever on the board. normally flashing a stock.ics.ftf resloves all software issues, as its resets all stuff to factory..
anyway, here u can find links to other android versions: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Andro...y-Bean-ICS-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-and/td-p/154389

[Help] Charging problem, usb port or Kernel issue

My S3 with a custom ROM and kernel doesn't charging. Today suddenly I realized charge level was decreasing even it is on charge. I tried everything an even bought a new battery. When Phone is on the charge in battery status it says it is charging but in boeffla kernel config app it ssys there is no charging connected. It is so weird. Battery level is decreasing even it is on charge. What should be the problem? suddenly broken charge port or kernel issue? how can I fix this? By the way I was using fast charge with boeffla kernel. at 1350 mAh.
First of all flash the stock rom via odin.
Then download this app from here to see if it is charging good: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free&hl=ro
If the reference is 1000 it is charging normally.
If not it may be a charger problem or usb port problem
