n900 doesn't charge while ON and other strange behaviour
 

Hello all! I've tried searching on the forums for my issue but no luck so far, so let me explain.

I've had my N900 for 7months already and these issues started (I think) after my phone died out due to low battery a couple of days ago. I revived it (took me a long time as it wouldn't charge at all.... even being OFF) but ever since it's beeing showing some glitches:

My n900 does can no longer charge with either the wall charger or the usb cable + PC while being On. Pluging it does nothing.

If I plug it when it's off, then it charges, And If I turn it On while plugged it keeps charging. (It's actually the only way I have now to set to PC Suite/Mass Storage Modes)

It's also showing strange behaviours like the battery meter going down drastically and a funny thing: sometimes when the phones locks itself and turns off the screen, the LED turns on (orange colour). When you unlock it , the LED turns off

I have tried flashing the 1.3 image (not the eMMC) but it hasnt worked,,,


any ideas??

thanks :)

You have uboot installed? I had charging issues similar to yours until I removed it.
