[SOLVED] Wizard battery issue

[anichillus]

This could sound stupid, but...it's not, so who want's to help, please do so, and who doesn't, please don't bother...

I didn't do anything...my wizard just didn't turn on. I left it charging cause id ran out of battery...and now it's turned off and won't start. When I plug it in, there is a red led on top...no other reactions...

Please, if someone else knows somethin that could be of help I would apreciate it. I don't think it's the rom...or anything else software related...

Mabe the main battery but I wouldn't know, because I don't know how to find out.

Thanks in advance !

First of all -- which charger are you using?? Are you using the OEM WALL charger, or are you using the USB Sync cable to charge with??

If you're not using the OEM wall charger, you're probably not pulling enough juice through the USB cable to revive your battery.

Pop out your battery. Wait a couple of minutes and put it back in. Connect your Wizard to the OEM WALL charger. This should do the trick. If not, you're going to need to get a new battery. They don't like being completely discharged.

I solved the problem.

I pluged into charger without the battery inside ... it showed the red light...then I put the battery in, while charging ... and the red light went off. Then I pressed on turn off button ... and tadaa ... it turned on. The battery was 0%...I read that this "red light" problem is quite common not only for wizards, but other HTC models too.



Thanks XDA developers !
