Well yesterday I flashed P.A.C Rom and when the device battery was on 0% the phone shuted down and after that I connected it to the charger to charge it again but I have a red light and the device doesn't reacts. Tried to to hard reset and everything but It doesn't helps.
Please help

I had this problem as well. You have to wait till your phone turns on (takes 10-15 mins) and boot into recovery. Flash another kernel with offline charging and it should work from there

Can you explain please which kernel should I flash?
Phone boots for 5 sec every 15 minutes and then it turning off again.

if you drained the battery during flashing to absolute 0% then it wont turn on immediately when you plug in the charger..wait for about 30minutes before starting the phone again..and dont flash when you are low on juice..always keep at least 50% battery :good:

Ok ,everything is ok now. I had another replacement battery so I used it and flashed stock rom on the device. After that changed to the original battery again and charged the phone offline.

[Q] USB death after Root and Flash on Xperia ARC

HI all,
I flashed my Arc last night, and then rooted it.
All seemed to be fine, until I rebooted after the Root had been completed.
Once the phone turned back on, the battery had dropped from 70% to 1%. It was warning me that it was about to shut off, so I tried to plug it into the computer, via USB cable to charge, and nothing!! I thought it must just be my computer, so I tried to plug it into the wall socket, and still nothing! It just refused to charge. Full stop. However, it continued to tell me that I was bout to run out of charge and didn't turn itself off!!! I unplugged it 1000 times, and still tried each option ( computer/wall socket) and it just wouldnt work.
So, basically, this is a well known problem and you can solve this by following this procedure -
" try removing the battery for a few seconds then reinsert the battery whilst the wall charger is plugged in. give it 5 mins before attempting to switch it back on.
if it manages to switch back on, try to put the phone in flight mode until the red light turns a pale green. "
I did this, and turned it back on. Straight away the phone rocketed back up too 77% battery.
And, the usb port worked again.
So my question is this,
Is this a common issue?
And is following the above process ok for the phone? I hope that I wont have to send it back, cause the other people on that link above had too.
Is anyone else had this problem?
Thanks all for your input
Amanda
This is a common issue, no worries Amanda! Same for me when I flashed the UK Generic 2.3.2 to obtain Root..
How did you fix it???
This happened to me also last time after a reflash. You may try to do a complete drain then do a complete full charge (don't turn on the fone while charging at this time).

Just remove the battery and wait a few sec.

Couple questions about rom manager

1. When I power my device down and connect the charger ClockWorkMod Recovery pops up, Why is that? Is there a way to turn that feature off so my device is completely turned off while charging???
2. Is it safe to charge in recovery? To leave the fone idle for a number of hours can't be safe especially with the words and icons being displayed don't want those images burned into my screen. . .
3. After powering down at 99% I let my battery charge for a bit and not even a hour later I see the fone rebooted itself and I'm back at my home screen with the battery saying 'charged' is that normal???
Thanks in advance
1. It's a bug. 4EXT Touch Does address this, as well as a plethora of bugs from CWM.
2. Yes - I had also experienced the above bug when I was using CWM. I put my phone to charge, then slept. Next morning, the phone was idling on recovery. But I still strongly suggest you use 4EXT, as it is faster and safer.
3. Never heard of this...Ideally the led will turn green, but the phone won't turn on by itself.

I'm using a new 1520mah battery from the EVO 4G Design maybe that's why the device rebooted? not too long before this I left the phone charging for say 4 to 6 hrs and the led never turned green it stayed at orange.
When I rebooted the battery info said 'charged'
Highly unlikely. My guess is it's another issue with CWM. For all we know it could be a random tap of the power button, after all that's all it takes to power it up.

Charging my DZ almost every night and never had this issue.
You should consider using 4ext instead of CWM.
Older version of cwm had that problem, but was fixed a long time ago

The issues still present, I'm using the latest version of cwm.
For me, i always charge my phone only when it runs out. When i plug my charger in, it boots to recovery, but if i leave it for a while, it just shuts off. It seems that CWM doesn't stay on when my phone is on low battery or something.

Charge when it reaches 10 - 5% then tap the power button as soon as you see the recovery menu pop up, it'll bring up a screensaver that should stop it from shutting off.
Don't know why anyone would day 4EXT is "safer", though I'm happy to be educated.
If you leave it for a minute in that state with CWM started, the screen will turn off again so it's no problem, just a slightly irritating bug.

Well, from experience with CWM5 I had a lot of issues with backups. Either MD5 checks would fail or booting after restore would have me stuck at the htc screen. So from that aspect of view, 4EXT is somewhat safer. On second thought, reliable would be a more fitting attribute. Just my 2 cents.

[Q] [URGENT] Dead Lt18i read flashing led

Hello everybody,
I have an Lt18i today after doing a few things at home I went to check in my phone and it was off, I thought it was out of battery but now when I plug it I only see a flashing red light on the led, couldn't get to fastboot or anything, complety death. I have the bootloader unlocked so no warranty btw I was using Fusion 3.5 with FXP 142 if that helps. Also tried to connect it to the computer but it doesnt recognize the computer.
Thanks a lot for your help in advance, Im quite desperate already I dont know what else to do.
Best regards
Remove battery
Hold the power button for more than 5 seconds
Clean the microconnection with toothpick
Reinsert battery
Connect AC-adapter
Leave the phone if it doesnt start automaticly
Now, reconnect AC-adapter every 30 minutes.
Look at your battery, is it deformed?
If yes, its dead.
Try other batteries.
Connect to AC-adapter without battery and try to turn it on.

[Q] Phone wont turn on after battery depletion

I am having troubles booting my phone after the battery depletes and the phone shuts off. My Optimus G is rooted with lifeless Rom v14 and I have TWRP recovery.
So once the phone dies, I plug it in to charge, and the phone screen automaticaly comes on and the LG logo flashes for a second, but nothing happens. The phone doesn't actually charge. If I remove the phone from the charger, the display still stays on until I hard reset it. I cannot access recovery mode or download mode for some reason. Usually when my phone dies, and I plug it in, it will flash the LG logo, keep the display on for a few seconds, and then shut down and restart and show the battery logo charging. I am not getting that this time, and I can't seem to do anything to get it operating again. There also isn't a red LED light to represent charging either. If anyone has had this issue before or knows how to fix it, I'd really appreciate the information right now.
Thanks

I had the exact same problem last night. (weird) I held down the power button for ~15 sec, and let the phone sit for about 15 min. I booted it and got it to load into TWRP and then put it on the charger. Let it charge in TWRP to around 10% and then booted into android and let it charge overnight. I had a mild panic attack at first but all is good now. Stupid software dependent charging.

Ok, that's definitely weird... I came to XDA because of this, it happened to me 2x and I did the same as you, let it charge in CWM till 12% ( shower time) and reboot the system. I'm not sure what exactly is causing the issue, it shouldn't be a software problem.
To try to find what's going on, lets talk about what we have in common:
ROM: Houston stock international (stock 4.1.1)
Charger: Non LG charger (htc)

[Q] Revolutionary HD not charging when battery dropped to zero

Recently flashed Revolutionary HD ROM, HBoot 1.73, everything was working fine, its a awesome ROM, but last night Battery level dropped zero, I wasn't able to charge during this time. Now its not charging, as I connect it to PC red light is blinking from last four hours and when I connect it to HTC socket charger charging screen appears with blinking red notification light, but its turns off in 30 seconds and remains off for 30 seconds and again charging screen appears with blinking red light and then it keep repeating.
I don't understand why this is happening. I had keep trying to turn it on, once it turned on and showed low battery notification 3% battery and it turned off.
I really appreciate help, its my first post in XDA Developer. I tried to explain the scenario but ignore my poor English.
Thanks.

Solved
I connected the phone and let it charger for whole day, after a day I switched it on and battery was 10% and it started charging normally when phone was on.
I am going to change Rom, Revolutionary HD drains battery very fast. battery level was 100% last night, and whole night phone was on standby, in morning battery level dropped to 9%! and battery details says android system used 85% of battery.
Lukes can you please tell me which recovery you used to flash Viper 4.0.7? I had tried four recoveries but not working. cw recovery says bad package and twrp recovery is not working nor touch neither buttons working.
Thanks
