The dreaded battery with red line (battery not detected)

I've tried everything I can find to fix this problem...  a little while ago, I was writing a text message when my 8900 decided to reboot.  When it came back, all that was on the screen (and all I've seen since) is the battery with a red line through it.  I've done battery pulls, charded for more than a day using both USB and directly into a wall... I tried to wipe and reinstall but have been unable to complete the procedure (symbol reappears part way through)....  anyone out there have anything else I can try?  Here is a bit more about the attempt to wipe and reinstall the OS:
Downloaded and ran JL_Cmder, was unsuccesful, it wouldn't connect to the phone.  Ran AppLoader from command prompt, finally able to get it to connect to the phone by unpluging from the usb, removing and replacing the battery and plugging back in immediately as the red light came on.  Got through removal of applications and instal oif JVM and system files, on the step where it waits for the device to initialize, it stops and the battery/line comes back on the screen....
any further thoughts/advice are greatly apprecaited.
Thanks
Chris

Mine is doing the exact same thing...We are not the only users who have run into this SAME problem. I have searched everywhere for a solution. I've tried JL, BBsak, DM, and crackmem. Nothing works...can't seem to connect

  • My battery drained. Screen shows battery with red line but doesn't seem to be recharding after 20 min.  Should I wait or do a hard restart? I haven't backedup in ages and don't want to lose pics, contacts etc.

    My battery drained. Pluged in to wall but screen shows battery with red line but doesn't seem to be recharding after 20 min.  Should I wait longer or do a hard restart? I haven't backedup in ages and don't want to lose pics, contacts etc.  Will a hard restart wipe all that out?

    Agree with Richard:
    -Your device needs both the CR and LF. To accomplish this:
    option 1: Concatenate the "end of line" string constant (this is a combination of CR and LF, located in the string pallete) to all your outgoing commands. Make sure in the "Visa configure serial port" the "Termination character enable" flag is false.
    option 2: Concatenate only a CR to your command's strings. Make sure in the "Visa configure serial port" the "Termination character enable" flag is TRUE AND that the termination character is set to 10 (meaning LF) which I think is the default.
    Details can be seen in this link:

    "Adding Termination Characters to VISA Serial Writes in LabVIEW"
    Interesting would be to configure the serial port to accept not one but two termination characters. The above links refers to the document "Developer Zone Tutorial: Termination Characters in NI-VISA.", where this is supposed to be possible. The document however is 404'ed.
    If someone find a working link please post it.

  • TS3274 I have a new iPad mini w/retina display.  Recently, the screen flickered with red lines across the entire screen.  Anyway, the screen eventually went black. Now it does't work.  Anyone have any suggestions?

    My screen just went haywire.  The screen flickered with red strips vertically.  I thought it was part of the game I was operating until the screen went black and a white strip illiminated at the top.  I tried turning teh system off, but it would not allow me to turn it off.  After about 5 minutes, I was able to turn it off.  Anyone have this occur?  The Ipad mini appears to be ok now.

    I Also have this problem!!
    In my situation, the screen simply started exhibiting the same symptoms a few weeks ago (early February) for no apparent reason.  At first I thought the screen was dead, but discovered the heat solution by accident.  Now I turn it on and keep it from going to sleep until I go to bed.  Thank goodness the battery is still awesome on this thing.
    I bought it new and still has the original screen, I keep it at home (never below 62 degrees).  Coincidentally, this happened a day or two after the expiration of the warranty!!  Any help figuring this one out would be eternally appreciated.

    My phone froze last week when I plugged it in for the night. The battery had been dying pretty quickly for the 2 weeks before that. So i took out the battery and put it back in and then this white screen appeared with a battery and a red line across. I replaced the battery and it still gives me the same message. I tried pluggin the fone into the computer and reloading the software from the blackberry site and still nothing. The computer is not even registering that the fone is plugged in. Help please!

    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    The OEM Rim battery colors are as follows:  8830 is lime green, 8330 is dark blue, 8130 is orange.  You cannot mix these batteries, they are not interchangable.

  • Apple and Red line Battery

    My ipad keeps going between the apple and a red line battery. It will not charge. I have tried holding both buttons several times and that hasn't helped. Any other suggestions of what can be done. 

    1. Reset iPad
    2. Try another wall socket
    3. Try another cable (make sure it's an original Apple cable)
    4. Try another charger (make sure it's an original Apple charger)
    5. Clean Lightning port with compress air

    I'm afraid you'll have to get the phone serviced, dropping the phone must have damaged additional parts inside the phone.
    But Apple will not service the phone anymore, opening the phone and replacing the battery should only be done by authorized personal, not by users.
    You'll have to look for a 3rd party repair shop and see if they can fix this, sorry.

  • My kid just got an iPod 5th gen (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line and lightning symbol. No other response at all.

    Sorry about the long title.....its my first post.
    My kid just got a brand new iPod 5th generation (today from Santa) and it won't power up or charge. The only response is when I connect the USB and press the power button or front button the Battery appears with red line on left and lightning symbol below. There is no other response at all no matter what I do, including holding both buttons down for extended period.  My other kid got one and it works perfectly.....I have interchanged usb cables ports etc. but still no response....I would really appreciate any help.  

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since you have a hardware problem with the iPod. This is because as you said the same cable works with another iPod.

  • My bb 9380 won't turn on while the screen shows one battery sign with red cross mark ( not charging sign )

    my bb 9380 won't turn on while the screen shows one battery sign with red cross mark ( not charging sign ), i think the battery drained and switch it for charging but it will show only not charging sign . i bought this phone before 9 months, whats the solution for this ?

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain directly connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB, not a cradle):
    With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
    Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    Remove the battery
    Wait 15 minutes
    Insert the battery
    Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
    This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
    It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
    Obtain an known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
    Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
    The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem. Note carefully please that "new" and "know good" are not necessarily the same things. While rare, a "new" battery certainly could be defective. Rather, the simplest (and least costly, btw) method to conduct this test is to find someone with an identical BB who has no issues...trade batteries and see what happens.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • I am unable to drag any playlists to my ipod- the circle with red line through it shows up- what is up ?

    I am unable to drag any playlists to my ipod- the circle with red line through it shows up and precludes it from being accepted- what is up ?

    Though I have doubts for success, you might try a SMC reset.  It can do no harm.  Otherwise, barring suggestions from others, the Apple Store or qualified repair facility is the last option.

  • My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. Help?

    My 06' Macbook Pro crashed with vertical, green pixelated lines and now will not advance past the turn-on screen with the apple filled with green lines as well. Then, it says to hold down the power button to restart. I have tried several times to get it past this point but tnothing helped.
    I have an appointment at the Apple store today, but was wondering : will all of the information and files on my desktop be lost? Or is this a logic board problem?
    Any help is much MUCH appricated.

    I'm not sure, if you're out of warrenty it'll cost quite a bit for the replacement of the logic board replacement...unless you have apple care. you could ask apple to try and recover your hard drive but i'm not sure.
