My phone was doing this. These batteries get hot and won't charge. So try plugging the phone into the charger and take off the back cover and keep the phine face down with cool air blowing on it. it will keep the phone cool and allow it to charge. I bought a new battery thinking ut was the battery, but it wasn't.

SOURCE: phone not turning on

first use the wall charger and see if the problem is not your battery in the phone. if the problem still exists, then uninstall and reinstall the driver for phone in the computer. if the problem still exists then you have a bad usb cable. please rate this thanks

TCL lx. Screen does not light up.

Fix an Android device that won't charge or turn on Use the steps on this page to fix the following problems on your phone:
  • Won't turn on
  • Has a black or blank screen
  • Turns on but immediately turns off

Hold the power button First, try holding down your phone's power button for 5-7 seconds. This usually restarts a phone.
Troubleshoot your cable, charger, outlet & case
  1. Use the charger and cable that came with your phone. To check that the charger and cable are working, try them with another device.
  2. Check that the cable is securely connected to the charger and to your phone. Check that there's nothing in your phone's port, like dust or lint.
  3. Plug the charger into a wall outlet. To check that the outlet is working, plug in something else, like a lamp.
  4. Check that no accessories, like cases or battery packs, cover your phone's sensors or press its buttons.

Troubleshoot your battery charge
  1. Plug in your phone with a working cable, charger, and outlet, then wait one minute.
    • If you see a battery icon, your phone is powered off and is charging. You can restart right away.
    • If you see a red light, your battery is fully discharged. If the red light is flashing, there isn't enough power to turn on. Charge your phone for at least 30 minutes before restarting.
    • If you don't see a battery icon or red light after you plug in your phone, the issue could be with your screen.
    Tip: Battery icons and lights can vary by phone. For your phone's details, contact your device manufacturer

Hi i have an experia ant the littli led light on the top stays on red all the time

Hi.

The little red light means your battery requires charging.

Plug in the charger and allow it to charge.
It should change colour to orange when it has over 15% charge in it and then turns green when it is 90% charged.

If it still stays red dispite being fully charged. Try removing the battery for a few seconds and then replace it again.

I hope this helps.
If your phone is fully charged and it still has a red light, then take it back to the shop you acquired it and get a replacement.
It means you have a hardware fault.
