battery

[z1hayze]

for some reason my battery wont charge...when i put my sharger in my phone the light doesnt even light up...it just keeps saying battery to low cannot prgram then shuts off 2 seconds later...i just got this phone 3 days ago so i dont know how the battery could be dead already

[dragnandy]

maybe its the charger itself. try plugging it to the computer via usb cable and see if that charges. and if it does maybe its just the AC charger thats broken.

[z1hayze]

well i tried 2 other chargers and it still doesnt work...but when i plug it in through usb the green light shows that its charging...can you charge your phone that way?

[fldodger]

Yes you can.

[z1hayze]

well it showed the green light to let you know that its charging but it still didnt charge...i dont know whats wrong

[Rotary Parts]

is it stuck in the boot loader mode?

[z1hayze]

yep it sure is...thats probably why it wont charge...the only way i see to work around this so i dont have to buy a new phone is to buy a new battery with a full charge already on it unless anyone has any other idea

[Rotary Parts]

well you can get a desktop charger for about 15.00 any were charge batt and reflash!!

OR i could use this warranty for my phone sice i just bought it from t-mobile 3 days ago ^_^ the rose rizr looks girly anyways i wonder how the blue one looks

[fldodger]

Use the warranty. That will be best. No need to put up with it. Black is awesome, that is the color I have.

[z1hayze]

i wish t-mobile had black =/ they only have rose and blue

[fldodger]

:(

[dragnandy]

blue is nice. i have a blue but i always thought black would be nicer. ive been waiting to see if rizr housing wuold go down so i can switch them. but so far no change.

hi! I have a battery problem as well.
When I plug the phone to the wall harger, the battery icon on the outside screen blinks, like it is charging, but never charges more than One battery line, enough for a few minutes of conversation.
Note: i was messing around with the SEEMS, perhaps I touched something I don?t...

See ya! and thanks for UR time!

Hey there, what kind of phone is it? Reason I asked is that if you did mess with a SEEM you might be able to get back a stock one and you would have to mod it over or we can pin point the mod that was done.

[Iony]

Hey to you all!
I fix it... I don't know where, but I read, that cleanning the mini USB on the phone and the charger with alcohol, might work... and it did.
Another thing I tried is cleanning with a pencil rubber battery contacts.

Thank for your time and patience...

Iony!
