I did not know that.

Well thank you. Although I am not such a big fan of taking out the battery when its not needed. I mean the change is short circuits with the connecting points when taking out, when powered or putting in when powered it larger. Now I heared from a comment above that MAGLRD does the trick as well. Now that is far more easier then all the others given above, Yours and mine :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] shopcity:
good tutorial on this. I cant believe the battery wont charge when dead thought this was a faulty error of the phone.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
I flash boyppc rom v5 and my battery drained completely and now it doesnt start up I tried both methods available here. Please help.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
theres 3 methods on here,

bootloader charge

magldr charge

remove battery charge

all three will benifit frm heating up the battery, do not cook it, or it may blow up

there is a 4th way but i dont recomend it unless nothing else works

take a usb cable mini or usb printer cable

cut off the end connector

strip back the wires and seperate them all, you want the red and black ones

make sure all the wires cant touch each other, cover the 2 unused wires with tape i

then connect the black wire to the (-) negative and the red wire to the (+) positive

tape them in place

the 3rd contact point on the battery isnt used in this method

finally connect the other end of the usb cable to the computer

dont leave it too long and when disconnecting remove the computer end first
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
I recommend this one.

It bypasses the system somewhat. Don't know what happens when battery is entirely drained, but it is worth a try.

easy fix solution:

1. Pull the battery out and USB cable out (if connected and charging)

2. Plug the USB into the phone and allow it to charge without a battery (it will not, duh!)

3. Put the battery in while the HD2's connected to the USB charging.

4. Observe that you can boot all the way back into WP7.

enjoy.

If it does not help. You can buy a new battery.

Click Here. Its not that expensive, a official new battery from HTC is around 30$is around 20Euro's.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
Thanks for this timely post Lemonspeakers. completely drained the battery listening to music on loudspeaker and didnt hear any warning. Couldn't hard reset then checked this thread.

On putting in the battery after charging the empty phone, the screen kept cycling between mgldr and HTC splashscreen so booted into sd android and the phone is fine.

I assume I didnt charge the empty phone for long enough (30 secs), I didnt warm the battery and I suppose I could have left it cycling until it charged up a bit more.

Thanks again

i tried but my phone doesnt start even then. my friend said it might be a kernel. i wanna flash stock but i dont know how because my phone isnt starting

my hd2 is a tmous. the 1024 one
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
your phone was not starting either? like it was black even though you pressed hard reset? how long do i leave it the empty phone to charge??
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
I "charged" it for about 30 seconds, suppose you could do longer
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
I left the phone without the battery and left it plugged in for 2 hrs and still no luck.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
This would be funny if it wasn't so serious.

Have you tried warming the battery? Hairdryer warm

Dont know if you have mgldr so maybe try the hard reset option
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
I have magdlr but I can't even get it into hard reset. I can try the hairdryer warm the battery
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
That might work.

Otherwise maybe a phone repair shop, there is equipment that can charge your battery outside an phone. An emergency charger its called if I am not mistaken.

you could inform there.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
its showing symtoms of it bring bricked. cause it doesnt charge, it doesnt turn on without the battery, and yeah conclusion is that its dead!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Robbie P:
you could try going to bootloader, vol down + on/off button, to see if that charges.

I have seen on the boypc thread that the build is compatable with your 1024LEO but it doesn't say that on the 1st post

Hope its not bricked!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
i cant even do vol up+dwn and power cause it doesnt start
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
No it is not bricked.

There is a mistake in the ROM that prevents it from charging when turned off.

Does not mean it is bricked. And yes maybe the battery is dead, that is possible but the phone... highly unlikely. :cool:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
direct charge it!

as ive already said, that will charge the battery, Magldr doesnt support the use of the battery controller, which is why the wee light doesnt come on, and the HD2 uses a different battery controller than the source device, not a lot can be done, short answer is the overall problem is dont let it run flat.

unless your battery is dead and wont charge at all, a direct charge will work.

connect a cable to the terminals on the battery its self
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
So my only hope if heat the battery doesn't work is the direct connect??
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
if you have tried everything else listed (and heating it will only help if there is a charge, ie , it turns on but doesnt have time to get to a charging "zone" :)

then yeah, direct charge it or buy an external charger, but it is very much a last resort, make sure you have tried all the other options, bootloader, magldr, battery out >plug in> battery in, try warming it, must not be hot though, very dangerous if you heat it up too much.

If you are going to direct charge it use a USB port from a computer, the voltage will be regulated, im unsure if the AC adaptor is regulated or not
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
im going to heat up my battery by warping it in a towel and just heating it with a hairdryer hoping theres some juice left. if not ill buy an external charger tomorrow from best buy
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
Did it work?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
to be honest, i doubt it will work with a battery that dead
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
I geuss so, well I suppose he should just buy a new one. costs as little as 30 Bucks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] wholoot1:
Thanks for the conformation.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
as i said, direct charge or an external charger is the way to go, heating up is only good if its got juice to turn on but not enough to get in to magldr, this is the point where warming may work, but the more times you try booting without success the less power is left, eventually it wont turn on at all
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
sadly no....i went to radioshack to get an external charger but they only have em for blackberrys
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] dazza9075:
if you get a desktop cradle they ususally have a spare slot for charging a second battery, least thats what i did
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
Yeah. That's the one but the slot was too small
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
Hmmm, well maybe you can buy 'm online.

There are products specially designed by HTC, sometimes they can be found in Phone stores.

Otherwise buy a new battery online. like I said is not more then 30 bucks.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] T-Macgnolia:
Yes if you have to charge a battery by the means you have mentioned "direct connection" then yes the AC adapter does control voltage. Plus you only wanty to use AC adapter/wall charger cause it puts out more chgarging voltage than a USB port does resulting in the battery getting enough power to boot the HD2 faster. Meaning you have to use this method of charging less time which is better for your battery.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] stepthehen:
Battery charge from drain.

After draining my battery a few times at work, no car charger, I just plug it into the wall and power the device up. It spends about 10 seconds on MGLDR and bootscreens and then goes to Windows bootscreen.

It can take 2 or 3 goes to get enough charge to boot properly, but it does work with no hacking or battery swaps necessary.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
Its better if you keep it in MAGLDR by holding down the ''power'' key.

Keep it there for minute of 2. Don't recommend letting the phone switch on, off, on, off. It stresses the core immensely.

Causing it to lose speed over time, or losing battery power. Sinse all batterys still have a small amount of memory.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] FlowerPotmen:
I used this charger to charge up my dead battery and it cost 5 usd Cool. Also have a spare battery..

i ordered an external charger off of ebay from accmonster. i trust him because my cousin says he orders a lot of accersories from that seller and it hasnt failed him so for those that need it the link is here
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
Haha, the irony of this.

I have the same problem as you sir.

Me battery died. I can't go past the HTC loading screen, the battery doesn't charge anymore. Geuss its because of the critical battery failures and then sudden shut offs. Like I said before, letting a battery drain entirely, or taking it out of its bay is dangerouse for the health of the battery.

I am the living proof of that, and I will not work with this phone for a week orso. Which is hearth breaking :(
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
Yeah now you see what I mean. It sucks that there's no way to fix it so it's compatible with our phones battery controller. I'll let you know how that battery charger works out as it's not here yet. Maybe a couple more days.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
That would be great. Think I will order one as well. I Couldn't hurt to have one near you.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
and its only 3.99 which is the best part. i think it should be coming sometime this week. now all i do is wait. this iphone makes me mad sometimes......:mad:
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
Its weird they can sell it for that price, well the store chargeses you 10times as much.

Hahaha, the iphone, will never touch one again.

If I don't get me phone fixed soon I will get myself the upcoming EVO 3D :D
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:
It's probably generic. As long as the job gets done I don't care. I got it in the mail 2days ago. Lmfao I never checked. I left it to charge. Will share results. And the iPhone is an okay phone cause the apps and Cydia lol but besides that it's organized like crazy which is what I like. I use both phones haha

Edit 6/5/11

The charger works!!!! WOOOOOTTT! I'm so dam happy!
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
That is nice.

My phone started working miracoulesly. took my battery out for 2 days, and at one point I thought lets give it a try... and It booted... really strange anyways.

Still bought the loader with 2 batterys.

Could never hurt could it :p

thats cool. i dual booted my phone but i cant seem to change the wp7 partition to primary. its stuck at logical and it has to be primary so android can read the sd card. any ideas or should i start a thread?
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] Toasit:
There are vids on youtube.

Part 1, Click Here.Part 2, Click Here.

Thought it sets WP7 to primary. It sets the WP7 rom on NAND, the android rom on the SD, which you can enter with MAGLDR.

Ofc, opening a thread is a good idea. there are more threads like it, so search before you post :D

Hope it helped.
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] drpudding:

[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] EQUANT:
I noticed something totally strange today on my SGS2.

The noise reduction works great - leaving the phone next to my speaker (playing music) i couldn't hear any music on the other line!

BUT ... after i bought a protective phone cover (made of some hard rubber) i noticed that during a call, the one on the other line can hear it's voice with an echo. Removed the protective phone cover - problem gone. If i put the phone near this cover during a call - BANG, problem reappears.

Disabling noise reduction fixes the problem (even with the cover on the phone) for good, but it sucks that you have to disable it on each call.

There MUST be a way do disable NC for good ...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EtherBoo:
Well, I need to be honest, I'm not high on Asus's support. Figured I'd share this with the community since it's amusing, but a bit of an eye opener as to what kind of support you will be getting if you contact Asus.

I called Asus today because there is a small wedge between the frame and the tablet (it came like this). It looks like I could probably push it in, but I'd rather not risk breaking it and REALLY be screwed.

The guy asked if it was OK if they reinstalled the software. I asked why and he said in the event this is a software issue, that they would need to re-image the device. So I asked how could a physical defect be caused by software, and he said they sometimes find that issues like this are caused by software.

I can post pictures if necessary, but I was just shocked that Asus would say something as silly as that.

Unless of course... the Transformer literally is a Transformer...
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mikewong27:
Asus tech support is not the best... I had really bad experience with my graphics card last year. So I just gave up and sold the graphics card on ebay. I hope that I won't have to go through their support on my TF.

[Eee Pad Transformer General] GarJones27:
Well contrary to these few unfortunate experiences, I sent my TF into Asus last week on Wednesday, it got to their Support Site in TX (I live in NY) on Friday the 13th. I had the SOD issue that some others are experiencing which was really just a dead backlight. I just checked my RMA status and it said "Repairing" then about an hour later I got an email notification from Asus saying my TF shipped today.

This seems fairly quick turnaround for fixing my TF. Hopefully I get it back without any issues. I'll keep you all updated.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] benmyers2941:
You were probably talking to a front line "tech support" person. Universally these people have standard scripts that they must adhere to. They have to get you're OK on these things because it's on the list not because they acutally think that software could be causing a hardware defect. On the other hand it could be a real transformer and they just haven't told us yet and are waiting unil it has a chance to infect all of our other household electronics and rise up against us.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] EtherBoo:
I used to work in Tech Support when it was more domestically based. I'm familiar with the scripts.

I also had to deal directly with support in India when I worked as a field tech, so I'm well aware. Some companies are better than others. I'm not sure if it's better script writing, better training, or what, but Asus's had to be some of the worst.

Just be prepared for it. I'll be sending mine in 1 week from Tuesday when I return from a business trip / small vacation. I'll let everyone know how well it goes and if my unit comes back "different".

I know Asus reads these forums. As an Android Platform developer, they seem to be doing the right thing, with 3.1 coming out.

Considering this tablet was originally going to be released with Froyo on it, then upgraded to HC, I had a feeling they'd be down with the updates (yay for 3.1 in June).
