Tracfone screen says "charge complete", phone won't turn on.

try letting the battery completely die and recharge it. Do this 2 or 3 times. Sometimes "topping up" a partially charged battery puts a memory into the battery and it wont allow you to do full charge.. I let my Nokia get to its last legs before replacing the battery with a spare and then fully charge the other one. Both batteries are now at least 6 years old.. Yes , its an old phone...

Its a trouble a firmware/android issue. Try charging it with an adapter that doesnt have a plugable cable USB/micro usb that gets in in the adapter, but with an adapter that ghas micro usb directly.
Have the same issue with my last phone and this fixed it. Next time charge your phone before its flat/completely empty

If possible test with another charger like a car charger if you have one
also try removing the battery plug in the charger and put the battery back in (don't touch the contacts/gold pins)


if it works with other chargers then the charger is bad


if it doesn't work with other chargers charging port/battery/phone is bad

my phone does not show that it is charging.i called safelink and told them about the phone she told me it as charging..

turn the phone on

w 270 unble to charg

Hi, the same thing happened to me. Did you find a solution?

Happened to Me Too , all you gotta do is like charge it for literally a day , and maybe a night ; in other words let it charge for a really long time NOT just 3-4 hours .

It will.. it just is slow. Just leave it plugged in for about 12 hours and it will eventually say that it is fully charged..

You need a new battery.
