O2 XDA Trion doesn't charge

[veriable]

Hi !

I searched already around the forum, but I didn't find anything for my problem:

Yesterday my device turned off because of low battery (while listening music), then I tried to charge it with the original charger over night. Today in the morning the device was not charged but the amber/organge LED was blinking.

When I put on the charger the red led turns on, after a few seconds the amber led starts blinking then after a few minutes the led turns again red an then again blinking amber and so on ...

I can boot up Windows mobile bu after a few secounds the deivce turns off an then again red led an blinking amber ...

I did a softreset and a hardreset but still no charging.

I tried another battery from a neighbour, the device works fine, but still a blinking amber led (not always-on) when connect on the charger.

Can anybody help me ?

Sorry for my bad english ..

Have you tried using your friend's phone charger?

The problem has been discussed. It is known as the RLOD (Red light of Death) and is reported against many different phones and brands. It is likely a fault in:
1
The phones charging circuit
OR

2
A faulty battery
OR

3 A faulty USB port (bent pin or cracked solder joint)
OR

4
A cracked solder joint between the battery connector and m/board

In my experience it is most likely to be a faulty (stuck) charging circuit.

The following link may be useful, and it is worth persevering. I once had a phone that took several days to get started again:

@gypsygirl: I tried two different chargers which are working fine which another device (xda neo)

@mikechannon:
I think its a problem with the charging circut or the usb port (otherwise the data connection works when connected to the pc).
I tried the battery from my friend with 90 % battery left and put on the charger and ist doesn't start charging, only blinking amber ...
I guess I will buy an external cradle for charging the battery, not the best way, but so i can use the device ...

When there is any solution for a cracked charging circut, i will try it out ...

Thanks for help
