how old is it ?
the lgs were known for battery just crapping out and bassicly going into a bootloop
you might try a cheapo battery first
I had a old Samsung stellar do a similar thing I had to jump start the battery with a cut off power cord wired into the batt and the phone once it charged some it would turn on.
if I ever let it drop below 10 % or so it would do it again

It is almost 2 years old. I read about jumping battery, but in my case, phone has an internal battery. I disassembly the phone and pull out the battery but I don't know how jump it

I don't know how, but right now my phone can start again in recovery and bootloader mode. Then dissassembled it, i plug out display from motherboard and plugged in to the ac. After a while it boot up again in fastboot mode and flash twrp recovery and see battery recharger !

[Q] Atrix Not Powering Up

I let my battery die off this morning til I got home. I plugged it into the wall and tried to boot up. I got the green light to flash but then nothing. I pulled the battery out and even left it charging for a few hours. Still, the phone does not power up. The green light turns on for a bit and then off. I haven't done any mods to the phone...
Any idea what is going on? Or perhaps how I can fix this? Any help would be great.
Weird. I had it plugged in my Energizer Ps3 controller stand (it has two usb outputs) which was giving me the issue before. I finally plugged it in to the wall and it boot up fine. I guess the PS3 stand may be faulty...

Use the charger that came with your phone.
If you do a google search, you will see that the droid x and droid 2 also have this same issue.
next time it happens, pull the batter and SD card. wait a minute or two, put in the sdcard and battery, then plug in the WALL charger. It will power on the phone and boot it up.
has happend to me twice - so now i just never turn off my phone rebooting it is also touch n go to be honest... the phone is sooo sensitive!
The phone's not sensitive...it requires an 800mA charger (0.8A). If you connect it to something less it doesn't have enough power to charge the device. If you let it sit long enough it *WILL* charge it...but it'll probably take a day to have enough juice to start up. If you let the battery drain completely it usually won't turn on until there's like 15% or more battery charged. Charging 15% battery on a 400mA charger (which could very well be the level your PS3 charging stand outputs) would probably take like 7 hours.
Thanks for the info, everyone!
I'm sorry for the bump, but this has happened to my mother's Atrix that I gave her just 2 days ago.
She found it turned off, wouldn't power. I figured it wasn't charged so I'm trying to charge it on the wall adapter that it came with but no green light. I've put it on my laptop and the green light appears.
It's not turning on though...can someone reassure me that if the light turns on, it WILL power eventually?
Same problem here

hello man, i have the same problem you have, did you find out something useful???

Eh?! Photon won't turn on anymore. White LED when plugged in?

My photon was on 5% about an hour ago... then it turned itself off. I plugged it in to the charger and a "white/faint yellow" LED comes on. Normally the photon doesn't have a charge LED so this certainly struck me as odd.
It has been sitting for almost an hour and still won't turn on.
I took the battery out and reconnected the charger and the white/faint yellow LED comes back on, even with the battery pulled out.
What is happening here? Has anyone seen this?
I've see green/orange/red LED flashes for diff things but never white.
Well I found this thread: http://forums.androidcentral.com/sprint-photon/107931-led-not-working.html#post1147045
Looks like white means very low battery and charging. Now the white light has gone off while plugged in... But it still will not turn on
Turns out, I was plugging it into a PC usb that didn't have the drivers installed. The phone won't charge if the moto drivers are not installed, regardless of the light
I plugged it into a wall charger and viola... its back and running.
False alarm!
Lol, exact same thing happened to me! I totally freaked out, but plugged it in a wall and started working.
same thing happened to me yesterday. I plugged into the wall, NOTHING. I started freaking out, until I pulled the battery and re installed it. LED charge light then came on and all was good. Weird.
Can someone help me i have a photon also but when i plug it up it says failed to boot 2 starting rsd mode battery too low to flash and it wont boot up when plugged up to a computer. also when i plug it into the wall it just boot to the m sign

- Pull battery
- Put it back in so it's off
- Keep it plugged into the wall to charge it
- Once charged, power into RSD mode (power+vol up)
- Plug into computer and start RSD and flash 154_5 SBF to get back to stock
- then flash 198_7 SBF for good measure.
- Reboot
When i try that nothing works, it just stays on the white led light
I just bought mine from best buy and it did the same thing..they exchanged the phone since it was defective..

Photon won't turn on anymore. White LED when plugged in
i have a refurbished replacement photon from best buy geek squad that i got last month. within a few days it was acting strange and randomly/often turning itself off. the battery was fully charged yet the unit would often times power down. this happened a lot the first few weeks. then last week the issue seemed to stop and it stayed on 24/7 as i charged it frequently. all was well until yesterday.
i dropped my phone from about 2 feet. the phone turned off and only the "m" boot up screen appeared after i powered on, then it went black. i had a fully charged battery in the unit when this happened. i plugged the charging cable into the phone and it kept booting up to this static "m" screen then turning off. the LED notification light went red and after numerous times powering on and off and resetting the battery (and sim card) i finally got a "5%" battery screen. a few seconds later it showed 100% battery then kept rebooting to the static "m" screen and shutting off again. then i started getting a "?" screen for the battery a few times and back to the 5% and it changed to 80%/100% very quickly and back to the blank screen. i left it plugged in overnight.
now the LED notification light turned white and the phone cannot be powered on. i tried another battery without any success so that shouldn't be the issue.
any ideas what to try next?

Try to fully charge your battery using portable battery charger.
When battery full charge, try to entering recovery mode. From off condition, press both power and volume down, press down until you find android recovery and press volume up button. After you see exclamation logos, press both volume up and down. Then select wipe data. Hope fully you can still entering recovery mode.
If you cannot enter recovery mode, try to enter RSD protocol.
step is, connect your photon to PC using cable data, press both volume up and power, wait until it show RSD Protocol, than flash it again.
How to flash using RSDLite is in development section, you can read there.
Hopefully its can work

phone broke ? need help

Hi
I think my phone is a little broke,
It ran out battery last night so i put it on charge this morning.
was on charge by wall for 10 min to get some battery then swapped over to car when i was driving it turned off now when i try and charge it at work via a usb wire and cplug converter i just get the battery logo with the spining circle for a few seconds it flashes then goes off does this about 6 times then the screen just goes off and will not do anything
anyone know any fixes or has it gotta go to samsung ?
Thanks
Have you tried taking out the battery?
Please let us know if it starts working again.
tried that, its like its not getting the power it needs for thats first few seconds as the buttons at the bottom flash on then off again
With the phone OFF. Leave it charging for four hours using the supplied mains charger.
With the phone OFF do you see a picture of the battery showing how much charge you have when you plug the phone into the mains charger? How much charge does it show?
it comes up with the b attery with a circle logo init then turns off then comes back to that over and over again,
i dont have the proper charger on me just the usb wire and a plug to usb
Think getting somewhere, tried a mates battery that works fine, mates charger wont charge on my phone but will my battery in his, so i guess my micro usb port is broke :'(

Xperia Go doesn't turn on. Is it dead?

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

try to charge it for few hours...
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
Hi was your problem solved? I have the exact same problem right now... My Galaxy S7 was stolen about a month ago so i am using this rusty old thing and will only be getting the S8 by next week...
I have the same problem with my Xperia P.

I have the same problem with my Xperia P. I tried charge it fully a few times but when I turn it on it doesnt on. When I reboot or restart it, still it doesnt turn on or even vibrate (doesnt vibrate even once but the lights when restart or reboot turn to purple, after few seconds SONY LOGO will appear then shuts down. NOTE: THE LIGHTS (red,orange,green&purple) WILL JUST APPEAR WHEN IT CONNECTS TO WALL CHARGER... IT DOESNT RESPOND AT ALL WHEN CHARGER IS NOT CONNECTED
Hope you help me, please. I badly need it. Thanks in advance!

Won't turn on

I recently picked up this galaxy s6 edge from a friend that upgraded to a new phone. It won't turn on, neither to android recovery, nor to download mode nor the android. I charged it via wireless charging overnight and i tried for around an hour with a usb cable. What do i do?
same issue i am facing, i tried original charger, wireless charger and fast chargers from many different brands. but all failed. The device only gets warm/hot while charging and nothing happens. neither download mode nor recovery mode works. I am kind pf stuck without any solution, my device was used very rarely and its like an brand new device. Doesn't know what to do, if you find any solution then please let me know too. thanks in advance
Same problem. If I press power button very long, blue light comes on. Then it's stuck and stays like this until battery is flat. Battery charging is not possible: device heats up (tried USB and Qi), but battery doesn't take any charge.
So I opened the S6 and checked the battery directly. I can charge it directly with a lab power supply and when I plug it in and press power button, the blue notification light comes on again until battery is empty again. I can also see that only ICs get hot, but not the battery when plugging in USB.
So, it's definitely some hardware fault. I suspect power IC that is not able to power up the screen. But I don't know. I will investigate further but it looks difficult. However, I have seen many YouTube videos with same symptoms, but problem was always different than mine :/
Hi guys,
This thread is 2 months old, any of you managed to fix the problem?
I am having very similar problem. My phone was on a shelf for about a year and a half. Before now it was working perfectly. Now I can't charge it via USB or power adapter. When trying to power it up or get into download or recovery mode, nothing happens. Computer does not see it. Tried different cables, USB ports, power adapters..nothing.
The only thing that is happening to the phone is the battery logo appears when trying to charge it, though the green bar does not go over battery, only the empty grey battery with lightning icon in the middle. Also the screen does not go dark after a few seconds as it should and the red/blue LED does not turn on.
Is this the signal from the phone, that the battery is to deeply dischareged and cannot be charged again? I am googling all over the web and can't find anybody talking about what phone does in case of to low voltage on battery.
PS back does not seem to be bloated, USB port was working perfectly last time used
Please try to help, you are my last stop before opening the phone and start probing the poop out of motherboard to see what gave.
EDIT: something interesting happened just about an hour after my post. The battery suddenly started showing % of charge and the green bar started running, computer recognized the phone.. as everything should be.
My FIX: leave the phone pluged in and charging for about 3days and it will start working again.
My semi professional explenation of fix and problem: the phone has a ''backup or reserve'' battery. It is actually main battery but the last I think I read somewhere it is 20% of capacity, is reserved for phone exclusively for the clock and all other electronics that need power when switched off. Now these 20% probably were discharged due to laying around for almost 2 years.
It took me 3 days of charging to fill up these ''20%'' I guess. Probably because Lithium batteries are charged VERY slow at very start and end. This is safty procedure for ALL Li batteries.
If any expert can confirm my conclusion please do so, to help other people.
To answer partialy to my question: The phone tells you battery is ''deep'' discharged when you only see the charge icon without the green bar.
In the mean time I was writing this edit I came up to 4% battery and turned it on!
