Can't switch on Jasjar

[alvwg]

Today, I found that I can no longer turn on my Jasjar. The power button does nothing and I can't enter bootloader mode. I've also tried soft resetting but there's no response. There's no lights whatsoever and the screen remains blank.

When I plug in the charger, there is a solid red light but no further response when power button is pressed. I checked the battery with a multimeter and found it has about 3.84 volts.

Prior to this, the device will turn off randomly at various power level without warning. The battery is about 14 months old.

Is this a battery problem or a hardware issue?

Welcome to the forums

It could be any of the options you mention
If you can try with another battery
Have a read on the wiki, there is a section about batteries

Good luck,

I'm having the exact same problem. Solid red light. Happened after I tried fixing the headset pin. I had the battery taped so I could test if there was sound coming out without having to hold it down. I was doing something when I accidentally moved the battery and the problem started. Solid red light, no battery detection, no computer detection, battery reads same 3.84 volts. Any ideas? Shorted mobo?

Sorry to hear that. I bought a new battery but it didn't fix the problem. Maybe you'll have better luck.
