That means your phone is hot as balls and is overheating. Is it on the charger or what, if if so take it off, if not, then pull the battery til you can get it to cool off.
It's not on the charger hasn't been all day I'm actually outside where its about 60 degrees right now. Percent just came back and rapidly went from 43% where it was before the lights went off to 10% wth is going on.

So yeah my x10 turns its screen on after it is done charging but still plugged in, and I can't find the setting to change that anywhere in the settings. I'm using 2.1, any help?
That's normal isn't it, to let you know the phones fully charged, then times out.
The problem is, it doesn't time out, not for 4 hours or so
Actually I have to agree...kind of. It's a SMARTphone... Not very smart to keep on the screen for that long as the screen drains the battery a lot... I can't confirm your statement though as I always charge at night and my screen is off when I wake up in the morning.

But the notification LED stays on after 100% is reached and so charging the battery at night is not an option anymore but the LED with drain the battery...

LED in contrary using very small amount of electricity
If the led drains my battery I will buy another phone, to my knowledge this led is using almost nothing from your battery. I always charge at night, and most of the time it is at 100% in the morning, sometimes 99%..

Hi guys
I need some help my evo 3d is not charging. I upgraded clockworkmod yesterday to 5.0.2.0. My battery died while i was out but now it won't charge. I've searched and it looks like a bug in cwm but I can't find a way to kick it into life. I don't have another phone that I can use to charge it. Can anyone help?
Did you remove the battery and put it back in?
When my battery dies, the phone doesn't turn on, charge, or give me any LEDs. I have to do a battery pull to make it turn on.
So there is no red light signaling that it is charging? I ask because when my phones battery dies, I need to charge for about 10 minutes before it turns back on, but the charging light is on.

There isn't any red light signaling for me. I went through 2 Evo's and both acted as if bricked when the battery died or I completely turned the phone off. It becomes functional again with a battery pull.
Phone plugged in for half hour no red light at all. Tried pulling battery twice still nothing. From what I've read it's a bug in the new Clockworkmod for evo 3d gsm. I can't find anyway around other than to charge the battery in a different phone. This is my 1st android phone and I don't know anyone with a sensation or evo3d
Ok left battery out for the last 5mins and put phone back together left charger out and powered on. It suddenly came to life! (i'm guessing battery had a tiny bit of life left) Waited for phone to boot and now charging light is on. Phew panic over. Thanks for the help guys
When charging my phone the light turns green when the battery reaches 91. How can I get it to charge fully so I can calibrate my battery?

When this happens, I simply unplug it...wait a few seconds then plug it back in and it goes to 100.
When I do that the light still remains green. Does yours do that as well?

I have never heard that the battery stop charging at 91% . It usually around 98, 99%. But as the other guy said unplug and plug it back the light will turn orange again and charging till 100%. According to HTC if battery stops charging b4 100% it means that the battery is over heating.
I unplugged it then plugged it back in, and it worked. However, it has been at 99% for awhile now. It wont go to 100%. Could that just be bc it needs to be calibrated?

No, it is to prevent overcharging.
The battery gets to just before 100% and then stops charging. It then stays on the green light until it runs down to about 90%, and then starts charging again.
When you've seen it at 91% with the green light on, it's in it's run down phase before it starts charging again.
leave it a little longer and when it's around 98/99% unplug it.

This is a issue only on AOSP. I've noticed this while using CM7. I'm going to post this issue in toast thread and see what kind of answers I get.
My "DU4L C0R3 SH00T3R" shot you down in 3D! Screw Tupac. "A,O,S,P BACK!" >_<
This happens on the stock ROMs as well. At least, the GSM 3D and Sensation both display this behaviour on stock ROMs.

Welcome to the world of lithium Ion batteries.
I'm trying to charge my battery to 100% and it's been sitting at 99% for a good while now. My battery life has been pretty abysmal and I've been trying to figure out if it's the apps I have installed or if it's the actual batter on the phone.
Does anyone know a lot about batteries? Is this normal? Does this mean I should seek a replacement?
So, 99% charge on the 5v/1a charger for a good 20 minutes now, still at 99%.
Phone will die in 6-8 hours.
Sometimes phone shuts off when still reading 4% battery left.
What's the prognosis docs?
Charging from 99% to 100% usually takes a while but even more so on HTC phones. Just give it a while until it shows 100% and the led light turns green.

It's been an hour lol.
Unplug it then plug it back in, it will jump to 100%.
it does that really slow because it's at a trickle charge above like 95%. so it's not pulling at 1amp anymore, and it slowly hits 100. it's a safety measure so that it doesn't stay at 100% all the time
Yeah, that happens on all phones. It shouldn't take an hour, though. Try what orangechoochoo said, just unplug it and plug it back in.
I know on my ipod and on my friends' iphones, if you unplug it while it's in the 99%-~100% zone it'll drop down to like 90% since it's not "really" charged. I think sometimes the battery % while charging is just a little optimistic.
it might not actually be sitting at 99, unless you've actually just been watching the percentage for the full hour. i've seen on other phones that it will go back and forth bw 99 and 100 once it hits a certain point
hello everyone,

There is no blinking LED update for this phone on stock ROM.
If it blinks alternating orange and green (or green and orange for that matter) your phone is overheated and should be allowed to cool before any more attempt at recharging. This might also indicate that your battery is shot.
It can overheat by running lots of data over wifi, or other cpu-intensive tasks on low battery such that the battery is constantly charging/discharging trying to keep up with the demand. The battery can cook itself into deterioration after too much usage/heat, and may be swollen in the middle. If it is swollen in the middle, you can probably stop right now and test the phone with a different battery. Even if not swollen, the battery could be too old to work properly any longer.
If not swollen, you can remove the battery and let the phone and battery sit for 30 minutes in a cool place to allow them to cool, then re-insert the battery and attach the charger cable, but do not turn the phone on. Observe if the flashing orange/green begins again, and if so, I'd recommend trying a different battery/charger, as something is shot--most probably the battery or charger. If it flashes solely orange, the battery is completely dead/discharged--see if it goes solid orange after 30 minutes. Do not turn the phone on while doing this, so you can make the determination without other factors interfering. If it goes solid orange within 30 minutes, continue on to see if it goes green after maybe 4 hours, and if so, I think it's a safe bet the battery and charger are working, and it would be safe to turn it on and observe what happens then. If it doesn't go solid green within 4 hours but is solid orange, with a good battery/charger it would probably have sufficient charge to power on.
If it's blinking solely green you have a notification and the screen is too dark to see when you press the power button.

Thanks a lot for the detailed answer.
so this orange LED is more on a battery issue and does not indicate a hard brick of HTC Amaze ?

You'll know much better if you try what I told you.
