So.. I have googled the crap out of this problem and seen loads of issues raised, but nothing solved.
I am coming from a Dell Streak and grabbed me a galaxy s 2 from craigslist a couple months back.
It has been running fine and I have tried a few roms/kernels and a few days ago I got the following error:
When charged to 100%, I get the notification to unplug, when I do, it sticks. No big deal but even when the phone battery has dropped to around 80% it stays.
It does not go into MTP mode or think it is plugged in via USB. Although, before this problem originated, the phone continuously vibrated between charging and not, when not plugged in.
I have calibrated the battery, tried a mixture of roms/kernels and I am now on unrooted stock. The problem still occurs and sometimes it does not recognise a USB connection, like today.
Probably worth mentioning that when turning on (and not plugged in) the phone does not turn right on, just boots into the battery screen and flashes between the battery charging and the overheating symbol.
Anyone got any ideas?

Turn off the phone and put it on charging. Once it beeps that its fully charged, quickly unplug the battery for 5-10 minutes. Should work and 'recalibrate' your battery

Thanks, giving a go now.
Do you need root to calibrate though? I am on stock firmware and not in front of a windows machine to use ODIN.

OK, charged to 100% and got the full notification.
Left battery out for 10 mins and whacked it back in.
Turned on and it went to the overheating sign again.
Booted into the samsung recovery and I can boot into android from there.
Battery says it is as 88, cannot calibrate as I do not have root atm.
Any ideas?

Get root and use the battery calibration tool from the market. The best idea so far. I suggest rooting with CF-Root, its fast and easy - its basically still your stock kernel but just with root.
If you really need the warranty or you'r scared of root you can install cf-root, calibrate the battery, then re-flash a stock kernel (unroot)

If i helped you, press thanks. Thanks.
Done and done.
Calibrated, even bought a new battery. Tried various other roms and appears to be an issue. Phone knows when USB is plugged in but does not seem to recognise the unplugging of the charger. And stays at 100% for a while before dropping down to like 80.
One thing to note is that this seemed to happen around the time of buying a dock for the samsung from Amazon, by Kidigi. I plugged the phone in to the dock without a USB cable connected to the dock and the dock LED lit up, making the phone think it was charging. Is this likely to have caused it/messed up the micro usb forever?
Thanks again guys!
well i think ive figured out what the problem was
Its due to overcharging or keeping the charger connected after battrey is full which has caused a hardware damage
im not sure if this is true but this is the closest explanation i can get the phone shows connected to charger even when diconnected only when i keep it connected for long time even after its battrey is full my usb connection has completely stopped working

well that the same problem with me when it shows connected to charger at 100% i restart it then the phone drops to ~80% battery although its 100% which makes the app battery monitor widget think i have a 1977mah battery while i have the standard 1650mah battery this must be the extra 20% which disappeared after the restart for me
I thought it may have been an overcharging problem, although no other phone I have owned has had this problem.
I let the battery charge all the way down (it stayed at 1% for about 3 hours) until it shut itself off. I left it on the side and it created a clicking noise, it was trying to turn the phone on as it knew the battery was in, even though it was depleted.
I plugged it in via USB to charge and it tried to turn on straight away. Shut it down and charged by plug until the 100% notification then turned on.
Still the same problem but one of my battery widgets warned that the battery was over voltage for a while before calming down.
If the phone cannot be off with the battery in, what could be causing that?

It has been known to be caused by a defective circuit board for the USB connector.
So, it needs a samsung return, I assume?
i have the same problem with overheating and usb plugged when there is nothing connected
i changed the usb port from the phone but it still having the problem!!!
i will try to put a new battery and see if it work and after post a reply
So the past two nights iv let my rezound battery go dead. The problem is it wont charge a dead battery. It charges if there is some battery and its on but when it is dead it is dead. The fix was I had to put the rezound battery in my tbolt to get a little bit of juice.
Any ideas or similar problems? I am unlocked with the htc unlock tool and running nils business sense?
Could it be a rom bug?
Don't let your battery die. It's bad for it anyway.
Sent from the Rez Beast
Once the battery is dead what does the LED on the phone do? If it blinks for a while it is either too hot or too dead to turn on, but it can still charge eventually. If the LED is not coming on at all I would pull the battery out and connect the charger with no battery and see if the LED comes on. If still no luck, get a new charger.
Blinks then Charges
I had the battery die on me once (on a prior battery and prior rezound). The phone will blink orange for a WHILE (I tried 3 different chargers not knowing what it was), but eventually started to charging. I think patience is needed. If, after 15 minutes, you still aren't charging, then that's something (but longer if the phone was also hot).
If I hit he power button with or without the battery in the led will light for a short time. I had it plugged in all night and no charge. I used two different plugs.
As for not letting it die. I know its not ideal but I couldn't help it.

+1. Same thing here.
KORM via the beast known as the Rezound.
I let my phone die completely once. I freaked out that my phone wasn't charging. I went onto HTC's site and it said that it could take 20 or more for the led to turn on while charging if the phone was completely dead. Just plug it in and be patient. It will charge and the led will eventually turn on.

I had this problem too, and am a little concerned I have a defective phone
So I had this issue happen this weekend. My daughter was using the phone when it died. Couldn't get it restarted. (I am unlocked via HTC, stock ROM with bloat removed. Phone is a week old.)
After messing with it using the factory charger/cable and other chargers/cable combinations I got nothing. Light would only intermittently come on for a second or two then go back off.
I charged it over night with the factory charger/cable. Didn't work the next day. Charged it all day and night with my old charger/cable that I know works. Didn't work.
Tried multiple variations of taking out the Battery/Sim/SD card and using the plug-in chargers & CPU USB variations with no success.
Luckily, I had ordered a new spare battery and it came in the mail before I returned the phone. Plugged it and it started up fine.
But my concern is that my phone is not properly charging. I have also had other similar charging/battery life issues that raise concern.
As far as not letting it die, **** happens and phones die, if this is a reoccurring problem, that in my mind is pretty unacceptable. A phone should charge when its plugged in no matter what. I may end up returning it to see If just got a defective phone/battery.
My phone will turn on then off and im starting to think it has something to do with the battery. But when it started it was in tue yelllow on the status bar, now i have it charging without being turned on and the indicator light is on but hopping mine will fire up soon. This all just happened to me within the last two hours lol, already called verizon to get a replacement but still going down there tomorrow.

--I agree, but once it gets down to 5%, why not just turn it off knowing the problems people are having so wide spread now.
Under the exact same conditions I have had the same problem with a warm battery reboot. It seems to occur when you are talking on the phone and let it die. Once it dies the phone will not reboot. My wife has the exact same phone. When I put her battery in my phone the phone works fine. My wife’s phone dies every night and she simply plugs it in the wall and it charges no problem. Again the conditions seem to be related to the battery dying while it is hot. If the battery dies while the phone is cool and not used then it seems to reboot no problem. I will go to Verizon tomorrow to look for a fix. I will let you know what happens.
I'm also having this problem but i can return my phone because i unlock it or can i return it ?
Check and see if your battery is 3.7 or 3.8v . I wonder if it is related to the charging issue with the 3.8v battery some people seem to be having.

I had this happen, and here is what worked:
Unplug charger
remove battery
plug charger in
insert battery (while charger is plugged in)
I got an immediate orange LED and after a little while I was able to run the phone back on.

I had the same issue with my OG Droid. Would kill the battery and it would stay dead, even after a whole night of charging. The above method seemed to work for me.
I make 100% sure mine never goes totally dead after an experience I had with my Droid Charge.
I accidentally let it die completely (I fell asleep when it was almost dead & it ran all night). The next morning it was off, I put in a fully charged battery & it fired right up but started FCing like crazy. Every single thing I clicked on force closed immediately, I had never seen anything like it.
I was running a custom ROM & kernel & had done a nandroid BU the day before. I restored the BU & the phone ran perfectly again, but that scared me enough that I made darn sure it never happened again LOL........

That didn't work for me i just won't let it run down i guess.
Holy ****!!! I think I may have found the fix! I have had the same exact problem as everyone in here. It seems to happen once I root. My Rezound would die completely, then after plugging it in, the light would come on for 5 seconds or less then shut off. I plugged it into my computer and Windows makes the USB Connected sound, so I figured something is happening.
I went into my command prompt and *adb devices*. It showed my device, but says in recovery mode. I then *adb reboot bootloader* and the bastard rebooted into bootloader! From there, I chose "REBOOT" and it fired right back up! Anyone who is having this problem, please try this and let me know if it works for you!
***UPDATE***
It appears when the battery dies all the way and then doesn't charge, the phone is automatically going into recovery mode even though nothing shows on the screen. I had my SIM card out when I tried this the first time, then when putting my SIM back in, it started doing the same thing. But again, it was going directly into recovery mode. This time, I tried a simple *adb reboot* and BAM! I'm back up and running! Again, let me know if this works for you, or if you need help doing this, let me know.

Yes... HTC phones never charge "powered off" When you turn it off and then put it on the charger, it is actually entering/booting a special screen off recovery mode during charging.
CWM recovery on the rezound has trouble charging a completely dead battery.
Use Amon RA recovery.
My HTC One will only charge when the phone is off, not sure at all why this is. It was unlocked and has the stock rom on it, but it fails to recognize the device completely, when it is turned on and plugged into the wall or a usb port on my computer.
The phone however, will be recognized via fastboot and will charge either through AC or USB. I successfully was able to fastboot and push cm 10.2 on it. Still remains the same problem as before.
I cleaned the port out of the bottom to free it of dust and debris but no luck.
The phone itself will have a solid red charging light for 6 seconds, then it turns into a dim red light for 8 seconds, the led then turns off for 5 seconds and then the cycle repeats. The phone can only charge to 99% and never will show a green light for it fully charged, even after 2 days on the charge.
What the heck is the problem? I have read too many issues in regards to this and HTC has no acknowledged this one bit.
Do I have to replace the USB charging port? I ask that since my bootloader is unlocked.
Seems that on a clean restart and on airplane mode, the phone can't even hold a day charge from 25%..
My device started doing the same out of the blue. All was working fine untill about an hour ago. Now my device will not charge while the device is on. And no usb cable is being detected.
SOLUTION>>>?????

I'm having the same problem since two days ago. Anybody can help?
Thanks.
I have a stock ATT HTC One that seems to have a ghost in it. I received this unit with a completely dead battery and after charging several days it finally started. The battery only showed about 30% charge but it was enough for me to install and test a sim card. Everything worked fine so I shut it down and forgot about it. Recently I picked it up again and charged it. I have it showing 83% on the battery but it will shut down within a minute of reaching the lock screen after start up. It does this no matter what I am doing with the phone. I tried plugging it in to my computer USB and it immediately shuts down and won't restart until I unplug it. Before this when it was working it would show a discharge status once it was plugged in to USB but my computer would recognize it and the phone recognized my computer. If I turned off the phone while plugged in it would flash the red LED and then it would glow steadily until it was unplugged. A battery check indicated that the battery was taking a charge at this time I would really appreciate any direction or suggestions as to what to try yo fix this
Thanks in advance and I really want to thank everyone who does all the great work here.

Hi, I saw your problem with your HTC One and it's the same problem that I'm having. Can you tell me the cable and charger you used to charge your phone? I've had it plugged in for 12 hours now and all it does is flash the red led. what does the led look like when it's actually charging? I'm suspecting that i'm using the wrong usb cable and charger.
Thanks,
It's supposed to be solid red when charging. Solid green when fully charged

Hi folks
Have an issue i think its straightforward battery replacement and ordered one off amazon already but will take time to get to me
Just wondering if anyone has same issue or can clarify /verify my suspicion
Today my wife's lg g5 was on 7% in a 4 minute window it shutdown itself since then when plugged in with several chargers and cords the phone does not charge no led indicator light either
As such wont turn on
Ive pulled battery and put back in, usb port is clean and screen doesnt turn on for anything
Im thinking the battery is just... Dead
Any comments /suggestions?
Thanx in advance
I had a similar problem. When the phone turned off itself after discharge the battery, I can't turn it on. Even after plugged charger some minutes does not LED indicator light. And after several minutes with charger, phone is ON. My old battery is bad, with my new battery all the same.
I used the oem charger and left ir for several hours. Phone got hot but no luck. Awaiting new battery arrival.
Ok so update phone is a brick nothing works phone is 18months old... Lg messed up on this one

I’m having the same issue, I’ve tried a new battery and all that happens is that the phone gets warm and the phone is complete dead. I don’t know what’s wrong with it.
I have two dead ones too here. one died in februar, the other yesterday.
No Solution found yet. Led is not working, phone gets warm while charging.
I really want to access the data on the Mainboard, i hope that someone will find a solution.
On youtube comments i have read from several others who experienced the same..
Same problem here
My phone had an argument with the toilet.
I dried it out and it booted up just fine.
Then left it charging. It got hot then froze. I striped it all down and dried it out again, but it now appears dead.
My wife has a G5 so I'm able to fully charge batteries in hers and try them in my phone, but to no avail.
If I put the battery in and press the power button, it vibrates, but no sound, no screen, not USB recognised.
I've tried everything to recover it including but not limited to:
stock charger
multiple different USB cables
plug in to PC
plug into PC while pressing volume up/down and various other combinations
4 different bottom modules (2 standard, 2 cam plus)
stripped it down completely and cleaned all the connectors with isoproply alcohol
Seems to be dead as a dodo.
I have pictures and videos of my son on there that I'd love to recover.
Has anybody successfully recovered data off of the internall MMC from a dead motherboard?
Thanks!

You can get data from your Google backup. If you had backups turned on go out to Google from a laptop and download the last backup before it died. It should have all your pics etc
