Have a CM rom installed on my KF2, my wife let the battery die completely....now even when i plug it in i don't get the charging light and it wont turn on... ive tried charging it with fastboot cable. it made no difference. Any ideas?
How long did you charge for? I would at least leave it on the charger overnight.
Have you tried holding the power button for 30 seconds? Then powering on?
Also- probably best to charge with the original cable.

It sounds like the sleep of death issue that happens occasionally. I think that all you needed to do was hold the power button down for 20 seconds which forces a hardware shutdown, and then power on as normal.

I tried that, very familiar with that issue. With that issue at least the power button is illuminated. When this happened it was completely dead
Its happening with mine - starting a chat with Amazon support now

Ok, so I do not know what happened, but now, my battery is very low. I have TWRP installed, so whenever I plug or unplug from my stock Fire charger, or press the power button, it will display "Charging low battery, please wait", and the indicator button turns green, and powers off. When I try the method showed here, it will turn dark orange for a few seconds, then when TWRP starts, it is replaced with green then turns off.
I would really appreciate any help!

So, it is fine even if the charging light does not come on?

Yes. In fact, if you get your kindle working, when you charge it, see how much the battery increases in 30 min. Then, do it again with it off. My battery was charging 10% in 30 min, and when its off its charging 19%.

Ok, I tried that, however it does not work. The light will turn on when I plug it in, and when I hold it down for 20 seconds. I will try again with a different cable, but are there any other suggestions?
Wow, I cannot believe this! Someone did something to my kindle, and now it was working! Of course, you helped greatly, Josepho!
Somewhat related question, does the KF charge while in recovery? TWRP 2.0 specifically. In my experience with phones charging doesn't happen while in recovery, at least in CWM recovery.
EDIT: seems to be charging in recovery.
Yes, it should.
I rooted the kindle fire with the KFU, and was working fine for a few days. The battery got to low and now if i plug it into the wall charger it goes into the boot loop. Plugging it into usb port on the computer just gets me the green flashing power light.
i bought a factory cable thinking this might help resolve things, but when i plug in the factory cable NOTHING happens no power light, nothing comes on the screen pushing the power button nothing happens. I don't know what else to do.
If not plugged into anything pushing the power button does nothing. If i have it plugged in and pull the power it dies. I am lost, i just want to get back to the stock KF interface. HELP.
i am downloading the tools for the firekit, is this what i need to fix it? I didn't install FFF, or anything like that, which as i am reading now was a mistake.
Thank you for your help.
I had this problem recently but not as quite as bad.
Hold your power button for 30 seconds to ensure that it's completely turned off.
Have your usb cable plugged into the computer and then plug it into the device.
About a half second after you plug it into the device hold the power button for 30 to shut it off again and leave it plugged into the computer for at least a day. Of you're lucky, the power didn't drain too far to ever charge it with the usb port.
After that you're looking at replacing the battery or charging it manually. But you can forget about charging it manually though because it is extremely dangerous.
(Lithium + explosion = bad)
firekit worked...
thats good to hear because for many it doesnt
Hello!
I dropped my LGOG E975 and the screen has cracked. The upper half would still work. But i could not turn the phone off. So i let the battery run dry. When i came back from vacation, approx. a month after, i sent it in to change the screen. It got changed, but now it has another problem:
It wont turn on! At the store they said they could not get the phone to boot. I took it to a charger and while holding the volumebuttons it showed the LG logo for a second, then blinked red a couple of times. This happend twice. Now if i hold the power button for 15 seconds and plug it in, it will quickly blink a red light.
What to do? I suspect it's something with the software.
FIY i unlocket the bootloader, rooted and installed a recovery. Dont remember which one tho'.
Update:
I can now enter fastboot or download mode. But the phone wont be found by kdz. flashers.
Try to access recovery from the fastboot screen, pushing 2 times volume down then power.

The phone turn black, blink red once and thats it.
As a sidenote, i can only put it in fastboot or downloadmode after i hold the powerbutton a while before plugging it in. Else the red LED wont blink.
I have no idea then
Have you tried to put it in fastboot without plugging it in? Volume down + Power button when the phone is off.

No response from the phone. Can it be a batteryproblem since the red LED flashes shortly when plugged in and entering fastboot/download mode or trying to open the recovery?
Maybe. Leave it charging for a while and try again.
My father always lets his phone die out of battery and he leaves it off for a while like that. When trying to power it back on, or when plugging it to the charger, the led flashes just like you described. It's not an OG, but it may be something similar what's happening to you, since you said you left it for quite some time turned off.
Okay, i will try to leave it over night. It will sit in the charger for 6 hours before my next check.
Try to upgrade/recovery with LG support tool in download mode

It would still not turn on. Tried multiple chargers and leaving the phone in for a long time. I got a new battery on the way.
Sometimes it helps to hold the power button a bit longer.

I held the powerbutton down for multiple minutes. Still no response. I ordered a new battery from Ebay. Hoping this would fix the issue. The battery have a expected delivery this week. Will update the thread with the results.
Hope it works :good:

I tried everything. Really. Every possible combination of buttons, chargers and cables. The phone would only give a response when plugging it in. So i expect it to be a charging problem with the current battery.

what was the outcome with the new battery?
im an currently experiencing an issue that sounds much the same as this, difference is that i was using the teenybin software and the HS shutdown halfway through the update, and now will not do a thing other than blink the RED LED when i hold the power button down whilst pugged into charger
also to mention, the battery life on the HS prior to this was reasonable..
I ran my battery all the way down last night. Left the phone on the wall charger overnight and it is not responsive. Tried to turn it on using all combinations of powers button and volume buttons. When the phone is connected to a pc it doesn't recognize it. But when I try to power the phone on while connected, the pc makes the sounds indicating something is connected.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Leave is connected to a powered PC port for a couple hours. Not sure why but I've had luck bringing devices back from beneath the cutoff voltage level using low amperage charging. Heck my best recovery charging port has been the USB port on my cable box.

Make sure you are using the original power adapter.

Thanks for the replies. I am using the OEM cable. I've tried putting it on power using the wall charger. I've also tried using a PC. I've tried the bright light trick. I've tried pressing both volume buttons, one volume button, the other volume button. I've tried power button by itself. I think I've pretty much bricked my phone. I'm willing to listen to other suggestions

Must be that time of the month.. this happened to me last night.
Left the house around 90%, phone was getting pretty hot.. So I rebooted, twice.. still hot.. so I turned it off for 15 minutes. It was still pretty warm after that, but I decided to turn it on again. When it came up, I was at 18%!. So I sent a couple of texts, and just turned it off thinking I would be able to turn it on later. No such luck. OEM charger does nothing, I plugged into laptop for 20 minutes, nothing.. So I left it on the charger overnight. I still have nothing this morning. Going to leave it on a PC USB port for awhile and see what happens..
Is there an official process for getting your phone back up??
I'm rooted, unlocked, s-off.. so I'm worried if I go to Verizon (it's only been 50 days), they'll discover that if they get my phone back up.
Left mine on the charger over night and held the power down as I took it off the charger seemed to do the trick.

So I am using my tab pro with CM13 for almost a year then suddenly, while playing vainglory. It turned off automatically. I thought it just ran out of battery so I decided to charge it. After waiting for a couple of minutes, it didn't charge, it just boot looping, I tried to enter recovery mode but it won't. I can't pass. Only Download mode works. I tried to connect it into pc to flash another recovery in Odin but I can't, it just reboots again. Any suggestion? I also did removed the battery for 24hrs. and placed it again hoping that it will work... changed usb cables, but nothing happened.... help .... Thanks!
This literally happened to me yesterday on lineage 14.1. I was watching Plex, and the tablet crashed, powered off and was stuck on the logo screen when I tried to power it back up.
I hard powered off the tablet and plugged it in to charge overnight. I flipped the screen cover over the tablet, but I think it entered a bootloop after plugging it into the charger and the battery drained. (didn't charge while connected to charger)
For some reason the tablet refused to charge and would enter a bootloop again.
I tried to enter recovery, and it would show the twrp screen before rebooting.
I was able to get into download mode though.
To fix this issue I connected the tablet into the wall charger and held the tablet power button for 2 mins as suggested in this thread.

Thanks for the help and thread suggestion. Before I jump to conclusions, i just want to add that I also tried to use the tablet without its battery but plugged in into wall charger. I am getting same results. So my problem wasn't the battery, right? I did press the power button more than 2mins. While trying to charge using my wall charger, still the same
Darn, in that case it sounds like your issue could be related to something else.
