[Q] Battery not charging, Other Issues - Motorola Photon 4G

I'm going to try to be as specific as possible.
I had been flashing pretty much every third release of cm9 until the AOKP port came out a month or so ago. I was running the first aokp release until wednesday, at which point I switched over to the newest version. For each of the different ICS releases, I wiped, installed, rebooted, wiped cache, installed, gapps, rebooted, and never had any problems.
On the most recent install, everything was running smoothly and didn't have any problems. Last night, I put my phone on silent for a movie at about 8p. At about 11, I noticed my phone was dead while at a friend's house, so I plugged my phone in and walked away. I picked my phone up after I left, went home, and plugged it in again. I got the moto bootup, then it went to the battery splash, which showed 5%, and it immediately jumped to 100%. I rebooted, and it sits on the motorola screen. If I unplug it, it immediately dies; plugging it back in without hitting the power button takes me back to the battery splash, 5%-100% (the led changes colors as well).
So, I still have the rom and things on my sd card, so I reflashed, but it's doing the same thing. If i hit power, it gets to the moto screen, then black screen, then reboots. I'm using joker's recovery. If I plug the phone into my computer, I get a white LED, and no power, no found new device notice on windows, and nothing in device manager.
I'm sort of at a loss at this point. I think I could possibly use the microsd->sd adapter and put another rom on my phone's sd card, but that's about the only way I'll be able to transfer files.
tl;dr
1) Phone (running ics aokp, joker's cwm) died last night, will no longer charge
2) battery splash goes from 5%-100%, but the battery is actually dead
3) Can get into recovery, but the rom i flashed hasn't been bootable
If you guys have any ideas, I'd love to hear them. I think I'm going to try to throw a different rom onto the sd card, but I'm not sure why it would, or could affect the battery charging pre-boot.

Yeah, I'm waiting until the sprint store opens so I can grab a charger.
Update: My sprint store no longer sells the photon, nor do they have a battery/external charger. I called sprint, and they're sending me a new phone. I'm just going to use the new battery to (hopefully) use rd and flash the sbf, then keep the new one.

Alright, so hopefully this will help if anyone has the same issue:
I borrowed a friend's battery and was able to flash the stock sbf onto my phone, relocking it. Even after that, I'm still not able to charge my battery; it still jumps from 5%-100% with zero charge.
When I called sprint, I just told them that the battery wouldn't charge, and I wasn't able to boot. They had me go into recovery (which at that point was still cwm for me, but I pretended to follow along with their steps) and factory reset. When I told them it still wasn't working, he put me on hold to talk to his supervisor, then said he was going to send me a replacement. I think I might have lucked out a bit, since I'm not within 100 miles of a repair center.
So I wasn't able to fix my phone, but at least when I send it back to sprint, it will be locked. I guess the fact that I'm getting a new phone is a bonus.

I had kind of the same issue, but being that my phone is out of warrant, am out of luck. Now I have to use an external charger or hope to be by a computer before my battery completely drains out :-(. I can still charge if I plug it into a USB port on a computer.

Has anyone figured this problem out I have the same problem just this morning.... I'm not anywhere near uss store ... I have tried 2 batteries and both do the same

OK so I went and got a dock for the batteries and after letting them charge and die again they seem to charge fine in the phone now.. very weird

Amaze 4G wont turn on....Bricked?

So I got my Amaze on Friday, rooted and installed Energy Rom on Saturday, and phone just died on me on Sunday.
I was in the middle of playing Scramble with Friends and phone froze up on me. I had to take the batter out to reset it since the power button was not responsive. After I pulled the battery and put it back in, the phone would turn on.
So i read and read and found out people usually bought new batteries since the most likely culprit was a dead battery. I have a friend with the same phone and tried his battery. I saw the HTC Logo come on for a brief second and then that was it, nothing else. Phone died again and did not turn on (under his batter). I recharged my battery in his phone and tried that as well, but no luck.
Any ideas what went wrong and what I can do to fix this?
The phone is completely dead and not turning on. So that means I can't get into bootloader and recovery.
About Phone:
Unlocked Bootloader
TWRP recovery
Faux Kernel
ENERGY Rom
Any incite on this would be great. Thanks in advance!
Plug it in to the wall charger for 30-45min. Unplug and pull battery again. Put battery back in and you should be good...
Don't be alarmed if the orange led light flashes... It's normal when the phone dies. Be happy you're using twrp and not an old recovery that doesn't have charging while off

Thanks, i actually read those threads before i posted. I think there are more threads about that but i tried all options and none seemed to work. I will try plugging it in the wall and pulling battery out but the battery is at a 100% charge right now (i can confirm from a friends phone). However, if its just a glitch, then i will try the wall charger trick.
Thanks.

Once you get it booted, I recommend 4EXT recovery... But that's just my opinion

Thanks - tried the battery solution but unfortunately it didn't work out for me. Phone just refuses to power up.
Assuming its an official brick.
i have a similar problem, well my battery had charged and running fine for several months, so i unplugged the battery to put my sim on it, and plug it back in when it was booting up it froze on the boot logo, so i took off the battery again so i can reboot it
and ever since it wont come back on, wont either go to the bootloader, so i let it charged all night and nothing happen no led blinking or on, so got my friends amaze's battery to test and it would not do anything at either, right now i am waiting for my replacement, but i hate the fact that this had happen to me
oh wow - well i ordered a replacement as well. I really hope it doesn't come down to a software issue and they don't end up covering the device since it has been rooted.
If the phone is completely dead and non-booting, there's no way for T-Mobile to determine if it's rooted or not. Only until it gets back to HTC to be refurbished could they (HTC) find out but at that point it won't matter to anyone anyhow.
And it couldn't possibly be a software issue. There's something physically defective inside the device that caused it to die.
htc amaze 4g refuse to turn on.
hi all, i'm a newbie here, though i have always loved the XDA. I unlocked my bootloader last night, downloaded and reinstalled my fav apps since i didnt do a backup. while i was downloading the XDA app, my fone freezed and eventually went off. When i tried to get it back on, it got stuck on the white htc screen and later went off after some seconds. It has refused to come on till the time of this post. i really need urgent advice.
I was yet to install a recovery software before the tragedy occurred.

SOLVED: Phone refuses to power on

Not really sure what went wrong. I'd been running the TrickDroid ROM with the Bulletproof kernel, everything was buttery smooth until I restarted to the phone because it wouldn't send any SMS messages and now the phone refuses to power on. I can't even do a hard reset with power + volume down. So far, nothing has worked to get the phone on.
I hate to think I've bricked my phone, but I think I've bricked my phone. Any other ideas? I'm freaking out here.
I just got the phone last week, so I think if I take it into the AT&T store and show them that it simply won't power on maybe they'll just swap out the device, since I *just* got it.
EDIT: I kept the phone on the charger all night, still didn't turn on, I'd tried different plugs around the room too, no juice. Took the phone into the AT&T store, they plugged it into one of their display chargers and it turned back on.
I had the phone plugged into the wall when it died last night, so I'm thinking it may be some kind of incomparability with the Bulletproof kernel. I'm going to flash stock kernel and call it a day.
Honestly, if you got the phone within 14 days, tell them it's defective and they WILL give you a new one, easy swap in store. If it's outside of 14 days, you'd have to get a refurb, so I'd try all other troubleshooting BEFORE you go that route.

is your charger broken?

[Q] How dead is my phone?

Walking out of work yesterday, I swapped my dying battery for my freshly charged one, and powered up the phone. I see the Samsung logo pop up, and then the CyanogenMod wheel start spinning, so I slip it in my pocket. I pull it out a couple of minutes later to check something, and the screen is black. I press the power button a few more times, and the Samsung logo shows up again. Apparently my phone was off. So I wait on it to boot up, but it never leaves the Samsung logo. It sits, and sits, and sits...for a good 30-45 seconds, it sits on that screen. And then it goes black. I try again, but nothing happens. I switch back to the dying-but-not-dead battery, still nothing. I leave it to sit on the seat of the car with no battery for the drive home, and try again. Nothing. I leave it to sit on the charger for a couple of hours, both with and without a battery. Nothing. I leave it "charging" overnight. It's warm in the morning, but still nothing. I can pull the battery and put it back in, hit the button, and a little while later it will heat up, as if it's running and something's hitting the CPU...but no vibrations from the phone, no sounds, no anything at all, other than the heat. I tried my jig just now, as it was in my desk at work. More nothing. The phone is cold, the battery is cold, it might as well be a rock.
So...any chance of saving this thing? I'm really hoping to hold out for Black Friday sales to replace it with an S4 or something. If I can get this thing to last me another two months, I'll be happy. If it goes belly up November 30, that's fine. I just hope I can make it last until then. I already had to throw down $50 to get my wife a limp-along phone off Craigslist...am I going to be stuck doing the same for me?
First see if you can boot into recovery and perform a wipe data/factory reset. If not, see if you can get into download mode. If you can, flash back to stock and see if that lets it boot. In any event, you should perform a wipe data/factory reset at the earliest possible moment, even if you have to reflash the firmware first. If you can get back to stock, you should be able to reinstall your custom firmware.
So far I can't convince it to acknowledge that it's even on. The only sign it's not 100% dead is that it warms up when plugged in. I have no idea if it's actually doing anything other than sending juice to the battery because there's nothing on the screen and no vibrations or sound to alert me that it's doing anything at all.
:-/
I'll add that my computer doesn't acknowledge the phone's existence. Linux desktop, lsusb shows nothing remotely Android/Samsung related. Granted, a failing microUSB port on the phone isn't helping, so I don't know how valid this particular test is.
So u are in the need to enter the fast boot mode or else try the official firmware installation by the help of SD card.....
Hit thanks if this helped you...

...could you explain either of those? Fastboot, from what I can tell, is an HTC thing, and has nothing to do with Samsung phones in general nor the i777 in particular. As for firmware installation, is there a way to do this without any screen, PC connection, or feedback from the phone whatsoever?

Some Samsung phones have fast boot. I think the S4 does. The I777 does not.
If you can get the phone into download mode, (and if your usb connection is working, which I think from what you said may be in question,) then you can use the Samsung tool, Odin3, to flash firmware. You would have to use a Windows computer since Odin does not work on Linux.
I think your main problem is that you have a failing USB port. You should consider buying a replacement and putting it in yourself. It is supposed to be fairly easy. Once you have that working, you should be able to recover your phone.
Could it be possible that whatever it was trying to run drained the battery and now it's just refusing to charge? I had almost an exact same situation happen to me. I ended up having to buy a cheapo external battery charger from amazon to charge the battery and finally get it to boot.

Sadly, download mode doesn't seem likely. The phone is basically functionally a rock, with the limitation that it's probably easier to break than a rock. I may venture down the replacement USB road, although I'm a bit leery of spending money on the device, given that it won't even power on.

That's what I initially suspected, but I actually have a Samsung charger I bought off Amazon that came with a spare battery, and I've charged both batteries with it to full capacity. What does appear to be happening is that when it's generating heat, it's actually discharging the battery rather than charging, as a battery pulled from the phone takes much longer to charge on the external charger than one that has been charged from the charger, pulled, let sit, and put back in the charger. It's possible the phone refuses to power on until it can charge, though, because I too have had that issue in the past, and the only solution was to let it sit on the charger for a few hours. The first half-hour or so, nothing happened, but then eventually I'd get the battery charge animation. Sadly, letting the phone sit overnight did nothing this time around.

You've tried plugging it into the computer without battery in case power button went dead?

Updated "Please help: VZW S4 not charging..." (The refurb/replacement is busted)
First of all, big thanks to this whole community and the wealth of info that led me through my first time rooting and flashing ROMs. But now on to the sour part (search didn't bring up anything useful to my situation).
Short history of phone in case it helps:
I've been rooted since June (rooted on MDK). I've been on the CM 10.1 and then 10.2 nightlies ever since. I've followed all directions, and am glad to say that I had a great experience (a few hiccups from dirty flashing a few times, but nothing that couldn't get sorted). Last ROM I was on was CM 10.2 nightly from 2013-10-11.
Anyway, last night my battery gets low, but I didn't charge it right away. It got down to about 8%, and then I try to charge, but the battery icon doesn't indicate charging. Indeed after a few minutes fiddling, the % drops to 7%. Trying to charge it while powered off caused the phone to vibrate once every 5-10 seconds or so, but no LED or on-screen indication it's charging. I tried my wife's S4 charger and cable. Same result, not charging. I restored to a previous CM nightly backup I had from September. Same result, still not charging. I restored to my rooted stock ROM backup made right after I first rooted in June. Same result, not charging. Charging from the wall or PC doesn't make a difference. I ended swapping batts with my wife, using her stock never-been-rooted S4 to charge my batt, which worked just fine.
The USB port on my phone does work since I could see the device in Odin. Tried reflashing the stock kernel. Still not charging. I spent the rest of last night restoring to out-of-the-box stock. Now I'm back to a completely stock, unrooted S4 (still on MDK kernel, haven't accepted update to ME7), and it still won't charge. No notices or anything that the charger is connected. Except this morning, for no reason discernible to me, I now get the following warning message when I connect my or my wife's charger:
"The connected charger is incompatible with this phone. To prevent damage to your phone, charging has been stopped. To continue charging, use the original charger and cable that were provided with this phone."
Thoughts, please? And thanks in advance to you all.
Update 1 at 2013-10-13T17:30EDT
So I did some more digging and came across what looks like a similar problem (that's what I get for not using Google for search anymore). Sorry, can't post links yet.
forums.androidcentral.com/rogers-samsung-galaxy-s4/297925-samsung-galaxy-s4-not-charging-grey-battery.html
The biggest difference is that I don't get the grey battery symbol when plugged in while powered off, just the cyclic vibrating. And mine doesn't charge at a reduced rate at all (I lost 7% battery in 45 minutes while plugged in and powered off due to all the vibrating).
Further, my "incompatible charger" warning has ceased. I'm just back to the phone not recognizing a charger is plugged in at all. Phone still talks to my PC just fine though.
Is it likely I need to replace the USB charging port flex cable as suggested in the Android Central post? Thanks for anyone reading and pondering.
Did you try to flash back to stock?

Yes. I flashed via Odin back to unrooted stock (MDK kernel) and stock recovery, which is the phone's current config. I haven't yet done the ME7 update, but it auto-downloaded today, just haven't installed it.
How long have you had the phone? My suggestion would be to make another backup and put it on your computer. Then restore back to full stock, no root or anything. Take it to Verizon / Best Buy and tell them it's not charging. Hopefully it's not water damaged.

I've had the phone since the end of May (so I've owned it 4.5 months). Since I've already restored to full stock, I'm thinking tomorrow I'll take it to a VZW store near me to see what they say. Is Samsung's manufacturer warranty handled through VZW? Or do I deal with Samsung directly? Note, I have no extra insurance/warranty on the phone.
That should be manufacture warranty and you normally have1 year from purchase. Good luck and again just ensure you completely wipe it off all root and custom Roms. They'll try to blame it on that.

Back to VZW to replace the replacement phone
Update:
I went to my local VZW store on Monday and they tried cleaning the USB port. No luck, so they shipped me a refurb since this is still under the 1 year hardware warranty. I paid the extra for overnight shipping. My refurb phone arrived yesterday. I moved over my sim, micro SD, and battery from the old phone to the refurb/replacement phone, and plugged in the wall charger. BOOM, battery starts charging no problem :victory:. I spent last night getting my phone all set up. I also checked and this phone has the ME7 update so no more CM or any other ROM for now :crying:.
But otherwise, everything looked good with the replacement device...until this morning. I had the phone powered off all night, tried turning it on this morning and it won't turn on. Won't boot normally, won't boot into recovery, won't boot into download. Tried a battery pull...no luck. The phone had like 95% battery when I shut it off last night. Now, when I plug in the wall charger, the phone buzzes once, the grey battery icon with the circle shows up for 10-15 seconds, then the screen goes blank, then that sequence repeats.
Back to VZW today to get the replacement phone replaced .
dang...you have some bad luck. I had some similar issues and the phone seemed to fix itself?? Did not want to lose custom recovery, so actualy ordered an external charger and two batteries and of course the day the batteries came, the phone started charging normally again. Anyways...good luck...hopefully the new device wont have the newest update (which i dont think it's ota yet...just over wire). Dont let the store update anything at all or you may not even be able to root!

[Q] Soft bricked(?) DNA, can't get into bootloader... Please HELP!!

Hey guys,
So I've had my DNA for almost 1 1/2 years, and just recently decided to root and flash CM 11 and CWM recovery onto it. Now, everything went fine, except a month later, I was listing to music on Pandora, and my phone crashed (it has a few times before since it wasn't a stable release, but always boots back up in like 5 mins), but this time it never booted back up. I let it sit in the charger over night, but got nothing, not even an orange light. So I decided that, since it was broken anyways, to go ahead and take the entire phone apart and reassemble it. And after the second time, it turned back on (by plugging it into my computer at the same time of holing down the power button). But an hour later, the battery died, and I couldn't get to the charger in time, so it shut off. Now, I've tried everything that I have before, and also took it to a repair shop, but never got any life out of it again. Does anyone have any ideas about whats wrong? Is it fixable? I've also herd of a type of USB jig for Samsung phones that can put an unresponsive phone into 'download mode', is there some kind of equivalent of that for the DNA? Any help is appreciated!
Thanks!

It's your recovery. Try the most recent twrp instead. I've had this issue with my rezound and DNA and it's scary for sure. If you find a way to power on your device immediately change recoveries. Some are touchy on charging a dead phone.

Would maybe trying to charge the battery outside of the phone work? If so, how would I go about that? A friend of mine has a Lipo charger for RC cars, could I make some kind of jig to charge the DNA's battery with that?
EDIT: Found out he has a supper high end lipo charger that is programmable, so could I charge it with that if I can get the battery hooked up right?

You could to irreversible damage to the battery if you do the settings wrong, or hook it up incorrectly. You can get a replacement battery online for pretty cheap. I suggest that than possibly having a small explosion from charging a battery in a way not suggested. After you get the phone back on, immediately fastboot flash a different recovery as @iHateWebOS said.
New batteries come half charged (40-60%) out of the box as that is the suggested storage capacity for batteries to ensure long shelf life.

Okay, just ordered a new battery, should be here between the 10th and the 20th. Hopefully this works
HOLY ****, IT WORKED!!!!!! My DNA booted!!! Thanks so much guys!!!! Which recovery would you guys recommend?
EDIT: So I flashed on twrp, and it won't charge with the original battery in it, so does that mean if the new battery dies, my phone won't boot again? If so, which recovery should I flash to prevent that?
Okay, update. So I tried updating my DNA to the latest snapshot of Cyanogen mod (was at m6, going to m11), and the recovery failed, so now I'm soft-bricked... I'm trying to flash on the old m6 snapshot I have on it, but it keeps failing. Also, the recovery won' t support external storage, so I can't flash on m11 from my flash drive... What should I do?
EDIT: Okay, just found out that I was running the 2.4 beta of twrp, so I'm trying the latest 2.8.0.2, Ima see if that does anything
EDIT: YAY, flashing the latest recovery worked!! so now everything is working properly, except the digitizer, since I ripped the ribbon cable a little, but I already ordered a new one
Okay, so I accidentally let the battery drain, and now I'm at square 1 again. Does anyone have the pin-out schematics for the battery on the DNA so I can make a jig to charge it?
Thanks!
