Z3 Battery died, refusing to charge, no LED light???

Hey guys, i'm simply wondering if anyone else has had this issue (or to make others aware of this.) 
Tonight was very stressful, so i'll try and make it easy to read through.
- using my phone in the car, charging via my Sony Bluetooth Radio (built in to my car)
- battery was decreasing faster than charging and the phone ran out of battery and turned off
- tried to plug it into mains but no red light to verify charging
- used another charger and still no red light to verify charging
- tried to turn on. nothing. tried to reset. nothing.
- checked chargers with friends phone and chargers were working fine
- tried to charge the phone with a PC USB. PC verified something had been plugged in but said they couldn't verify and there was a problem.
- left the phone for about an hour.
- when returned to the phone the red out-of-battery light was blinking when I tried to press the power button.
- went to my car and tried to charge it via the sony bluetooth radio
- lights turned off and phone returned to unresponsive state
- got home about 40 minutes later and red lights are on
- charged it via AC adapter at home, left it for a bit, now charging normally.
For a while i thought my phone was completely busted and I was so angry as I've just had a replacement. can anyone else verify that this is a thing? before lollipop if the phone ran out of battery it would just start to charge.. I wouldn't have to wait an hour for it to become responsive again?! just making sure this isnt a fault.
thanks!

  • Why does my iPod touch 4 battery die quick and charge quick?

    When i use my ipod the battery dies quickly and as soon as i put it on charge it charges fully in less than 15mins

    If you charge for four or more hours how long does a full charge last?
    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.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                                
    iOS: How to back up                                                                                     
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                     
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • New Battery Replacement Refuses to Charge

    I just installed a new battery in my MacBook Pro 15". It's around 2-3 years old. It's been working great, holds a charge, recharges fully, etc. I tried to charge it today after using it in classes, but it won't charge. The first indicator light is flashing, the adapter light is orange, the percentage says 92%.

    "I just installed a new battery in my MacBook Pro 15"."
    Did you calibrate the battery afterwards? It's recommended that you do so.

  • The battery icon says "Not Charging" and the light on the charger isn't lighting up either?

    I fell while my macbook was in my bag. It was already dead but when I went to put the charger in it wouldn't light up. To my surprise it still turned on but it said "(Not Charging)". I unplugged it multiple times and reset the PRAM and everything and it's still the same. It's as if I always need my macbook to be plugged in for it to work and not charge at all. Is it the internal battery? What else could I possibly do to resolve the issue?

    Try taking the battery out and looking at it. If you don't see any visible damage, put it back in and see if taking it out fixed the problem.

  • I can't open my macbook. When I plug the charger the led light turn into green and orange then green then orange...

    Please help!

    If you have an older MBP with a removable battery, you might experiment with removing the battery, plugging it in, replacing the battery, etc.
    You might experiment with a different charger, if you have access to one.
    Otherwise, you can try Resetting the System Management Controller .  
    Having said all that, it is most likely you will have to take the computer in to a service place for testing/repair.

  • Hey, last night after my phone died it refused to charge or even signal the  battery picture which is usually what pops up when it has run out of battery life, whats wrong?

    I've used various charger with my phone due to the fact that my original one broke and it's hard to get a hold of a real apple cable, So last night it ran out of battery and refused to charge anymore ( this was the third time it ran out of battery). It didn't react to any of the botton, it didnt even signal me with the whole " i need you to charge me " picture. later that night  i decided to check on it and it signaled the picture so i plugged it in with the cars charger and it worked, my phone charged perfectly fine it turned on and worked okay. and this moring the whole senerio stared up again except now it won't charge at all i found an original Apple charger, i plugged into the computer, car, and house outlet and no response from the phone at all. I also I don't have the cable which charged my phone last night in the car it belonged to a friend and my phone still has no response to any bottons....

    If you have one try using a different charger lead, adapter or plug socket. If that fails it may be that the charger port is broken. I had the same problem with my ipad but it was within warranty and I got it replaced at an apple store

  • My battery died and then when i charged the phone it is asking me to connect to itunes and restore. if i restore how can i get my data back

    My iphone battery died and on charging the phone it asked me to connect to itunes and restore the phone.
    If i restore the phone how can i get my data back and how can i check when i last backed up my phone

    If you have been syncing regularly as the iphone is designed, then you can sync the data back.
    Regardless you will have to restore the iphone.

  • I just got my iPhone 4s yesterday and I let the battery die and then I fully charged it . It has been off charging for 2 minutes and has already dropped to 98% all that I have done is reply to 2 texts

    So I bought my iPhone 4s last night and first thing I did was update to iOS 5.0.1 then inlet the battery die. It charged all night and was at 100% in just 2 minutes it drained down to 98% have I done something wrong? All I did was reply to two text messages. All my other phones wouldn't lose battery for a good 30 mins

    Give it a chance. It takes a while for the battery condition to find its feet.  And - just a personal hint - don't panic over a couple of percent on the battery readout.

  • My battery died then it still shows radio off even its full charged , pls help!

    My battery died then i charged it and still the phone is radio off and the battery  is full, and just shows the home page and i cant go to the menu or do anything ??!!
    cant even connect to the pc 
    thanks in advance, 

    Then you've got a bricked dead device.
    You can try again to try to wipe and reload the operating system if you want. You will need to use BBSAK or JL_Cmder to wipe the device and subsequently load the OS to the device. Follow the instructions here:
    http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/How_do_I_wipe_the_BlackBerry_using_Jl_Cmder%3F
    And if any of that doesn't work, I'd return to say it's a moisture problem. I've seen it all too often. IF it is moisture and you continue to use the device, you're just damaging it further.

    I pod touch 5th generation was working fine (Not sure what the last ios i downloaded was it should be ios 8 or higher). The battery died so i charged it. Now that it is charged when i hold the power button the screen turns dark blue as if it's powering on and the apple logo is about to appear but it never does nor do any other type of images on the screen. If i hold the home button Siri will say "Siri is not available please connect to internet" but there is still no image on the screen. I've tried holding down the home and power button it restart it but doing this just gave me the same results. How do i fix this problem? What's wrong with my i pod?

    Try:                                               
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on           
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable                     
    - Try on another computer                                                       
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPad won't turn on after battery died

    I recently got a second-hand iPad 2 from a family member.  It was working fine until the battery died, and after charging for a moment, it will start turning on, but when it gets to the home screen, it only shows for a second before immediately turning off again.  I'm using a 1A charger and was wondering if that was the issue, or if there is something wrong with my iPad.

    Try using the original charger and cable.

  • Battery refuses to charge

    Hey guys,
    I have an Iphone 4S, with IOS 7 operating system.  Replaced screen and phone would not charge.  Took it to Phone Repair store, they replaced the battery, seemed to be the only problem at the time.  Battery refused to charge, took back to shop, they replaced battery AGAIN.  However.......The battery WILL NOT charge when plugged into charger!  I have tried a different charger, a new outlet, had the phone checked by the phone repair shop (after 2.5 hours, could not deteremine the issue).  Have tried to restore it back to factory settings, have tried a new charging port, have exhausted my brain!!!  Anyone else ever have this problem, and was the phone just a "goner" or was there something within it that could be fixed?  Upgrade is in 2 months, so I don't really want to spend money on a new one. 

    Yep, the internal clock battery sounds like it has died. This battery has to be replaced by a service technician. It is inside the case.
