Ipad 2 stuck in low battery

My Ipad 2 is stuck in low battery, I was able to get it into DFU mode, restored from itunes but it is still in low battery mode

I have never seen this answer before but here's what worked for me and I found it accidentally.
I have an iPhone and an iPad and I only had 1 charger (my only Apple cord didn't work anymore so I had thrown it out and I thought maybe that was the problem, except my iphone charged fine with my pink cord) by my bedside, so I would just hook up the one that needed it the most before I went to bed.  Well one day I woke up to find that my iPad had a low battery, with the red battery picture. When I plugged it into the charger, it just kept recycling to the Apple logo and then the spinning wheel of death, and back again.
I did some research and couldn't figure it out. People who thought it was a dead battery still had the same problem after they sent it in and got a new battery  My iPad is not jail broken and half the "solutions" were over my head. I have over 1300 apps on my iPad, not to mention thousands of pictures, that I was just feeling so bereft and sad that I might have lost everything.  So I just let my iPad sit, and drained the whole battery down to the nubbin.  It was 2-3 days without a charger that I just let it sit.
Then I put it on the charger again and I noticed I still got the red battery symbol, but the red was a thinner slice. I went to work and left it on the charger all day. When I returned, one of my FB notifications came on and bam, there it was, my sign on screen or whatever it's called, where you slide the thingy across. And it was back!!!!!!
So I was overjoyed.  I'd also had a problem syncing with a warning that it overloaded my USB port. It was a separate problem, but I was able to sync it after that, and my iPhone too, so I was ecstatic.
Then the battery thing happened again about a week later.  I thought I had been diligent about keeping it charged but it went down after only a day off the charger.  Realized that I had FB and mail notifications notifying me in the startup screen, so that it was constantly turning itself on and off.  I have almost 5000 FB friends and 10 email accounts, so that was a lot of steady activity that I wasn't really aware of.  I have now turned off all notifications to every app, since they also come on my phone AND I bought a 2nd cord, a purple one, so now I'm set and don't expect to ever have that problem again.
Hope this helps everyone who thought they had a brick.

  • IPad 2 stuck on low battery screen

    Hello my ipad 2 is stuck on low battery screen and i have tried everything and nothing works, it does not reset and doesnt even enter in DFU mode.. everytime i reset it, it gives me the red battery screen again. i charged it with a wall charger and USB charger to my laptop and nothing works. HELP please

    Then this might help you, if you hold both home and power button for 10 -15 seconds.
    If that doesn't work:
    plug your device to you mac or pc
    turn off your device
    when it's completly black screen. (You have to have your device plugged in)
    then hold power button for 3 seconds
    without releasing the power button, hold both home and power for 30 seconds.
    then you'll be in DFU mode.
    restore.
    Hope this will work.

  • Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on, Ipod touch 2nd gen stuck on low battery screen and won't turn on

    My ipod touch was working fine until yesterday it just shut off with about half of charge left. I tried holding the power and home button but nothing. When I plug it into the charging wall outlet the low battery screen pops up and same goes for when I plug it into iTunes on my computer. I let it alone overnight to see if the battery would drain but same thing happened today. What should I do?

  • My ipod is stuck on low battery!!!!! and wont charge

    this might be a lil long but please bare with me!
    my ipod wont charge. i whiped out my computer last weekend and had to put all my songs back onto my ipod. it was fully charged and worked fine for me.. now my battery is dead and ive plugged it into my computer and right before the ipod died it said i needed to restore it. and i couldnt bc my internet was down. now my ipod battery is dead and i cant charge it.. does anyone kno what to do? and when i plug my ipod in, it shows a battery with a circle on it and under it it says very low battery please wait.. and there is that little flower looking thing and it shows as if it was loading but nothing is happening it wont charge and i cant restore it.. is their any other way to do it??? i charged it mostly on my elbow that i had in my car but i dont have that anymore!! please get back to me, id appreciate it..

    I dont know if this can help anybody, but I got the same issue. I sent the iPod to Apple for repair twice, and they sent it back to me saying their was noting wrong with it. I had the time to sync it once, then it got stuck on the Apple logo, and after a while the "very low battery" message showed.
    It turn out the I got a playlist in iTunes of more then 65000 song (I dont know how my sons did it...) and it somehow messed the iPod completelly.
    To reset it, I force the iPod into diskmode: you reset it using the center-menu buttons combo, then immediatly press the center and play buttons. It turns the iPod into disk mode and then you can restore it in iTunes.
    Hope this help

    it sound like you may need a new battery if its not holding charge .

  • IPad3 (new iPad) stuck at 100% battery

    Today I've been using iTunes to transfer some content to my new Ipad. The battery seems to be stuck at 100% though, I've tried resetting the iPad, using it for a few hours at full brightness, and connecting the charger. Stays at 100% no matter what. Also disabling the % counter and re-enabling it, didn't help. Any idea what's going on here?
    Need to get this fixed asap, I'm leaving for a long trip to China in about 30 hours, rather annoying to have my iPad act up on my just now :/

    This has happened to me twice since getting the new iPad.  The first time, I fixed it by turning off the % indicator then turning it back on.  The second time, it took about 2 or 3 hours of use and then it finally went down.  Interestingly, when it finally dropped, it did not show a sigificant decrease (such as a drop to 80%) nor did it seem to decrease any faster than usual. 
    Both times I tried the reboot/reset approach described above by Dah-veed, but it didn't work.  Since I am a brand new apple user, I was too afraid to do the restart/restore method since I don't fully understand what that would do to my settings, saved data and apps that I have purchased.
    I've seen numerous headlines recently about the iPad intentionally reporting a 100% charge before the battery is fully-charged. I'm not sure if this is related to the problem we are having but, it confirms that, by apple's own admission, the battery meter is intentionally designed to give an inaccurate reading.  Perhaps that intentional tweak to the battery meter is causing other problems with the % display.  Just a guess.  

  • IPhone 5 stuck on low battery charging screen A.K.A $500 Paper Weight

    Well this is the third and final iPhone 5 my family has encountered with this issue, Luckily my mom upgraded to a 5S and avoided this issue even though she was experiencing it. Me and my father are not as lucky. Usually jumping power sources and rebooting works. Finally tonight my phone is stuck on it and nothing I can do will bring it off. My phone is totally *mint* and with an otter box defender case looks perfect. Now I would have had it replaced when the battery went to **** after a well known bug they had. However I was not in the warranty window still. Then when my lock/sleep button stopped working that was just icing on the cake. The screen being stuck now is the nail in the coffin. Now I love apple and have had every Generation iPhone since the original. However past 2 years living no where near an apple store has made it unfair and not worth having. The Genius usually take care of you if your not too far outside your warranty and the issue is a known apple defect or issue. However getting a known defect fixed is almost impossible when your not near an apple store. You are stuck paying out of pocket for shipping  and even for "recall" work if it happens to not be a recall issue. Plain and simple most of us can't go a week without a phone so when there's a known issue or manafactures defect you can't get it fixed easily. Now because I missed all the recall fixes and everything I am out over $1200 on two iPhone 5. Now do I spend another $1200 and go through the same **** or do I go with samsung?  I am going to share this with many forums and try to spread awareness. The iPhone 5 i have noticed to have the most problems and every single one a friend or family member has had all share the same issues and problems. They all are in cases and taken care of and experiencing the same issues. Anyone else notice the same problems? I know I am not alone; how are samsung galaxy's phone and warranty compared to apple and iPhone?

    Just sounds like a bad battery.

  • After reaching 0% of battery , when i try to charge it stucks on low battery icon

    Recently bought the New iPad and the guy at the apple store told me that i should drain the whole battery life the first 2 times i use it. after 3 days of use it went from 1% battery life to complete shut down.Tryied to open it to make sure it has no battery at all and it did't start as expected. I connect it to wall charger and it shows nothing at all, but when i press the Lock button on the top for a 2 secs it shows this icon http://km.support.apple.com/library/APPLE/APPLECARE_ALLGEOS/HT1435/HT1435_14.jpg and nothing happens. Showing same icon even if on charger(wall/pc) or no charger at all.
    Thinking about false charger but how can i check for sure?
    Thanks in advance!

  • IPod touch stuck on low battery screen

    I have had an ipod touch for a year now, and whenever I used to charge it, it took 2 minutes to charge fully and used to last 5 minutes. Now, I haven't charged it for a month because my charger broke. Now when I link it up via USB to my PC, it has a red battery sign on the screen with a thunder sign underneath it, and it stays stuck on this screen. Another problem is that the laptop that it is synced with is broken. How do I fix this problem - resetting the iPod? Getting a new charger? Replacing the battery? Help would be appreciated. Thanks

    it sound like you may need a new battery if its not holding charge .

  • IPhone will not restore and is stuck on low battery screen?

    I let my iPhone 3g's battery run flat a few days ago by accident, since then I have not been able to get the phone to recognize it is being charged. I plugged it into my mac and put it in DFU mode (i think), but my iTunes popped up with 'Unknown error, this iPhone can not be restored'. Now when ever I try to get it into DFU or restart it nothing happens except the red flashing no battery sign shows?
    Can someone please help?

  • Iphone 4s stuck in low battery-boot up-shut down cycle. (not an update or restore issue)

    From a dead iphone 4s, to plugging it into a wall or computer usb port will display the stardard charging logo on the screen.  About 6 seconds later, the iphone wants to boot up.  Near the end of the boot, not quite enough power to bring me to the lock screen, which will send it into a dead battery shutdown.  This is a never ending loop while plugged into a wall or computer. 
    Just a simple dead iphone, no restore or update was in progress... 

    That makes it sound like a very bad battery or logic board issue.  Have you tried taking it to an Apple store genius bar and have the techs take a look?  Checking it out is free, they can tell you if there is a hardware failure and what your options are.

  • Iphone 3gs stuck in low battery.

    hi
    yesterday my iphone stuck in buttery logo and when i connected to my computer it stuck in apple logo
    please help me i have tried everything in internet

    "I have tried everything on the internet" doesn't tell us anything.  Please be specific so we don't waste time suggesting things you've already done.
    Also, info such as iOS, iTunes and computer OS versions is useful.  Is this phone jailbroken?

  • Apple Bluetooth / Wireless Keyboard Low-Battery Indicator?

    Hi All,
    Does the iPad show a low-battery indicator when the Apple wireless keyboard is running out of juice? I know OS X is supposed to, but not sure about iOS. I plan to use my keyboard for meetings and depositions where I'd be in a tight spot if I ran out of juice unexpectedly.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    No, but, "The Apple Wireless Keyboard requires just two AA batteries — one less than the previous model. And its intelligent power management system conserves battery life. *So when you’re not using the keyboard, it automatically powers down. The instant you start typing, it turns back on*. Use the on/off switch when you're away from your computer for a long time."
    From here. http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC184LL/A?mco=MTY3ODQ5OTY
    Carry a spare set of AA batteries just in case.

  • HT5137 Why is my ipad stuck in the low battery screen?

    Why is my ipad stuck in the low battery screen?
    Help!

    Are you sure the device is charging? 
    Try resetting the device.  Hold the sleep wake button and the home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds (until you see the Apple Logo, then release).

  • HELP! ipad mini stuck on apple logo or low battery logo!!

    So I updated my ipad mini to ios 7 about 2 weeks ago (havent had a chance to research the issue)
    The update went through like normal until the end...when it went to reboot it loaded and went to the apple logo...but then it just stayed on the apple logo. i tried to wait for a while and it didnt load through so i tried holding the sleep/wake and home button with no luck. it appeared to be frozen. So I unplugged it and waited till the battery died to see if it would be fixed after I charged it and turned it back on.
    It didnt take long to die cause the apple logo remained on the screen (the screen didnt put itself to sleep)...when it finally died I plugged it in and left it alone. When I came back though the apple logo was still on the screen. I read online to try to turn it off then holding the home button plug it into the computer... I tried this (and after 4 hours being plugged in) instead of booting into recovery it flashes the low battery screen again and turns off....does anybody know how to fix this?!

    mine does that to, just dont get stuck in the recovery mode.
