Hi,
Ive read oni the forums that someone can repair DHD's.. my friend has one which doesnt power up, doesnt charge either.
Ive left the battery out over night then put on charge using mains adapter (genuine original) still no charge light at all.
on my HD2 i can power the phone up without battery inserted, just wondered if the DHD is normally capable of doing this, as its not doing that either.
it used to turn off or crash randomly, my plan was to root the DHD and see if the random power off issues would be resolved. after crashing randomly for the last time it seems to not want to power up at all, wether its plugged in or not.
Ive ordered a new battery in case its a battery issue (genuine battery) but wondered if this has been resolved by someone else using a different method. all the threads ive looked at here with similar issues seem to have not been resolved, or the thread gets hijacked/other peoples issues are slipped in and there is no real closure to the OP's post/issue
any help would be great
thanks

Ok, of course I know nobody in the UK to fix your friend's DHD as I am in Buenos Aires , but I would try to do the following: Wait for the new battery to try it out. If that does not work then contact HTC Service Centre and they will guide you.
If with the new battery the phone boots, but still behaves randomly, do not root it. Rooting it will not sort hardware issues out and it might leave you stuck in the middle of a process with a brick. Never root a phone with hardware issues, just try to solve that first.
If the issue was a Software one, then you can factory reset it and should be solved. Hope you can fix it. :good:

At my wits end with this handset! Just got a complete replacement Ignito as the last one didn't charge beyond 65%; the replacement is stuck at 60%!!!!!
Been advised by o2 to have the battery checked in an o2 store. However, I've been told by a mate it may well be a ROM problem?
Has anybody had this problem with their Ignito / Diamond? How did you solve it?
Thanks in advance,
Chris.
Mine is working fine, so I don't know what could be the problem with yours.
hummmm
you are charging from the wall and not pc i take it?
that's very strange, i've not heard of this problem being caused from the ROM, i take it you are on the standard O2 rom? If so i'd say take it back to O2, and let them test it, but if you are on a custom rom then i recommend you try changing ROM
I'm still on the 1.93 stock ROM and have no issues with charging from the mains. Using an old IPAQ charger with an extended USB cable too.

I've had issues with the handset reporting its full and then upon checking the power settings its only at 60%. Simple answer for me was turn the device off, leave to charge overnight from the mains and it was fine in the morning. Happened twice now but on a different rom each time. Think its best to charge with the device off anyway so nothing else is drawing power (such as the phone connecting to the network etc) that way you know its got the best charge possible. Could of course be complete rubbish but I've never had any issues and the battery lasts longer I find.

Ditto for me also, when switched on seems to take ages bout 70% but turned off no bother!
Hello! I wasn't able to find anything on this so I'm wondering if my phone is defective...
My phone is stuck in a loop...
1.I plug the phone in it will charge for 5 minutes then try to start up
2.The charging will stop during the boot up (on it own)
3.I imagine there's not enough battery power so the phone will shut off
And this will go on in a continuous loop. Also I can't stop it from booting up so that makes it worse...
I just bought the phone and let the battery drain down the for the first time and it started looping this way. Very odd. I have 2 other HTCs (8925 and 8525) and never had this problem...
So I'm wondering is it
1. The Software (config)
2. The Battery
3. The phone
I've searched the internet and it seems like I'm the only one having this problem...
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks!
Hmmmmmm sounds like a bad phone, I'd return it to your carrier if possible

i had a simular situation w/ my mda...i was on vacation, and when the battery drained, it wouldnt take a charge...the problem was that i was using my girlfriends motorola charger which wasnt strong enough charge a completly drained mda battery...
just ensure you are using the charger that came w/ the phone, as many figure (as did i) that one mini-usb charger is as good as another...
hope that helps...
Having the same issue, my Pro2 charges for couple of minutes than reboots and also the battery won't take a full charge so can Hard Reset .
Anyone else resolved this issue
Try booting your phone without the battery, so it doesn't need to charge
Thanks alot it turned out to be the USB cable. It was defective I was using the charger for my 8925 and it was working no problem but when I switch back to the TP2 it didn't work!
Hi all!
I have quite a puzzling question for you all. Full detailed story in QUOTES as I couldn't find any SPOILER button that could hide probably irrelevant details
I bought a HTC Desire last November (never rooted it), then sent it to assistance mostly beacuse when connected to AC power it used to reboot on its own when I was using an application while the device was still charging... even if I let it previously charge more than 30 minutes without touching it.
I got it back. They changed the mainboard (that is, everything except SD card, screen cover and... battery, I assume). Since then, I have experienced no problems whatsoever. I can literally plug (Desire to power) and play (games and apps) as much as I want.

But now another problem surfaces:
When the battery completely discharges, and I plug the Desire to power IMMEDIATELY after the "shutting down..." message, a strange thing happens:
Desire vibrates three times as soon as I connect it to power and looks like dead!
No orange led that displays charge, no response to power button, today I also tried the power+volume down combination but no response: it really looks like dead... as, if I may, it had no battery at all! Also, since I have never rooted it, I don't think there's a problem in the ROM.
Luckily enough, this problem is solved by removing and replacing the battery and connecting the phone back to power. But, most important, this problem never happens if I wait 5-10 seconds before connecting to power.
I know the world has much more serious problems to cope with, but if you feel like sharing your thoughts with me be the welcome... what could be causing this? Could this problem get worse in the future? Is the battery faulty?
i have this problem we need help
I just bought a used SM-T800. I didn't see any immediate issues but I've noticed it has been intermittently powering off or rebooting on it's own. These aren't graceful shutdowns, it powers off immediately, either when I'm using it or I'm not touching it. It can even happen while the battery is supposedly full and the charger is plugged in. This can happen many times in a row, a lot of times during the bootup process. If I leave the cable unplugged I've noticed if it finishes booting the battery can sometimes claim to be almost dead at like 3% when I thought it was 100% full.
I've done a bit of searching and saw a reference to an issue with a cracked interface to the battery. Is there a known issue with this device regarding this? Any detailed links on this? My alternative was to buy and replace the battery. Anyone else having the same issue?

Yes, I've seen that happen with the video glitching but it doesn't happen all the time.
Currently my device won't boot up anymore. Even with the device plugged in, the surge of power it needs to boot up isn't available from the battery.

As was mine a couple weeks ago, i tried everything...rooting flashing re partitioning, you name it, i did it. NOTHING WORKED!!
Until 2 days ago i opened up the back and noticed that the piece where the battery wire connects to the motherboard was loose i simply placed some foil above it and closed it up again( the foil put pressure on the connection which allowed it to carry power across). And now everything works fine, while its not a permanent solution(ill take it to samsung sometime later this month) it does work and now my tab is fully functional. While i dont know your situation this worked for me so maybe it will work for you...Let me know how it goes!!!!!
Hey everyone,
has anyone experienced something similar and was able to fix it?
My TA-1043 has previously turned off overnight, or simply didn't charge occasionally. This behavior was reported by others as well, and wasn't really that much of a problem for me.
However today not only did it turn off, it also does not turn on or accept a charge anymore at all. I tried several different cables and cleaned out the charging port, but it just will not charge at all from either a power bank or a wall plug.
I ordered a replacement charging board, but if that doesn't work and no one else has had this problem i'm gonna have to get a new phone i reckon... (warranty only covers one year and the place i got it from charged extra for extended warranty)
And yes i also tried holding the power button for 30 seconds, does nothing as expected...
So, has anyone had this problem and knows what causes it?
replaced the charging board and now it works again, let's see if that was the root cause... interestingly, the battery was at 50% charge when it started working again, so i actually believe it's something to do with the mainboard
It's a Software Problem
The same thing happened to my phone recently. What I did was to to click on the power, volume up, and volume down for 40 seconds. It was one of the longest 40 seconds in my life. It turned on and the battery was at 49%. It worked fine after that. I don't know why it happened but the problem was a software one not hardware even though it didn't want to charge anywhere and was always seemingly off.
