Everything's normal when I try to charge with the system on.. But when I plug in the usb cable from the electricity slot, it shows up the battery which shows the percentage and a non-spinning refreshing circle in it. It doesn't spin at all. Waited 5+ minutes for the percentage to arrive. After I hard powerdown the device (holding down the power button for 6-7 seconds) I can still open it and use it without any problems. Recent error, restoring from my CWM backup right now.
Anyone had this before?
I still have it after the perfect restore. Really weird.
Edit: Wiped to factory. Still no luck.
Restoring back to my original settings now. Gonna try after then gonna go to sleep. Tomorrow going to try with the modaco rom.
For further use;
I installed my ROM from scratch with odin. Original recovery was installed, no cwm. The green battery showed with the original recovery. Rooted phone, installed a few apps and the green battery was still there. Installed CWM with eurotab bootstrapper. Green battery isnt there anymore.
Cost of CWM.

Well, not really didn't test with real bullets, but I yet to brick it to a degree it makes it hard to restore, i.e. resort to using windows to run ODIN to re-flash stock firmware.
Got really close to bricking it to that point today with the lag fix that uses EXT4.
The phone started FC while copying the data to a new ext4 formated partition, and it looked like it reloaded but the uptime never showed the full powerdown. So, on it came back up I was back to TW with a bunch of apps missing including the ROM Manager, and market
As suggested by a member here I manually boot it into clockworkrecovery (moved recovery-update.zip into /sdcard as update.zip and adb reboot recovery), once in CWMR I restored from the latest nandroid backup and volia! I am back.
Well, it goes back under the warranty replacement anyway because of the bad 3.5 mm jack
I hopethe replacement does not disappoint.
Odin froze up on me during a flash last night and I couldn't get the phone to power on at all. No recovery mode, no download mode...I couldn't even get the charging indicator to come on when I plugged in the USB. It was TOTALLY DEAD...no signs of life at all whatsoever.
After about an hour and a half of fiddling, I found that if I
removed the battery
removed SD card and SIM card
plugged into USB on the PC
held down vol-up and vol-down
popped the battery back in while holding vol buttons
unplugged from USB
I could get it to start in download mode. What a huge relief. After a few more tries I was able to get Odin to finish flashing the stock firmware. I was sweating for a while there.
Hear you man. I weary of odin I hope there will be a way to flash from linux in the future

I've found that either when I remove my battery or I let it die, my phone doesn't turn back on. I have an external charger, and the spare battery I bought doesn't work.
Sometimes, even after charging my current battery to 100%, it won't start my phone. Nothing works, except if I plug it in to the computer VIA usb, but then it'll still stop half way through the ANDROID screen.
I think I read somewhere about how when the battery dies, or when the battery is removed, it can corrupt the NAND?
I've not been able to use my phone as a daily build, because sometimes the battery is off, and after 12% it turns off the phone. I cannot turn it back on. It can sometimes take me a day of fooling with it pressing the buttons and then it decides to turn on.
IS there work being done to modify MAGLDR to charge? Or to prevent errors from occurring when the battery dies/is removed?
I love this device, but when I can only use it 3 days a week because of battery issues, it makes me really consider switching to a Galaxy S2.
Can anyone here confirm?
this is not like my phone at all

Have you took a good look at you battery pins? You may have one bent out of alignment.
If your pins are good then try this. If you have Clockwork Mod Recovery imstalled boot into CWM and go to Wipe partitions. When that is done go back to the main menu of CWM and go to install zip from sdcard. Then find the zip file for your ROM (assuming you still hav it on your SD card) and flash your ROM again. If you don't want to have to set everythinv back up you can make a Nandroid backup first usinv the backup and restore option of CWM. After you flash your ROM again go back to backup and restore and select advanced restore and only restore the data and the cache.
If you do not have CWM bit installed your ROM via option #5 USB Flasher and DAF file then rum a Task 29 and then reflash MAGLDR and then your ROM
If none of thos works you probably have harware issues.
Hi, I just got an atrix two days ago and today tried flashing a ROM via CWM.
After following all of the original posts instructions correctly, the phone rebooted, and would not charge, or even boot into android D:
No red LED or error message, it would just sit at the booting screen.
Another strange thing, whenever I would plug the AC adapter into the phone, it would automatically boot, also mentioned by another person which flashed the ROM...

I tried using RSDlite but it says the battery is too low to flash. Same issue with Fastboot.
What should I do? I can't charge the phone, and whenever I connect it to my computer I get a solid Green LED.
Please help me D:
I'll be available via XDA PM, skype (danstheman7 is my username) and e-mail at [email protected]
Thank you in advance
**sorry if this is in the totally wrong section, i'm freaking out a bit right now and posted here incorrectly. my apologies.
You could try and get a battery charger for your battery. Ebay or amazon.
Also if your battery is really low sometimes it won't power on just buy plugging it into the wall or computer untill it has more then 10% charge. So if you plug it in and get a green light let it set a while it may be charging. Few hours should do the trick.
I am impatient so I used an old usb cable, cut the end off that would normally attach to a device, and stripped the wires that were red and black. On the back of your battery there is a positive and negative sign just attach the red to positive and the black to negative. Using tape I taped them down so they wouldnt move, plugged it in, and waited for a while for the battery to charge. Monitor the temperature of the battery to make sure it don't get hot. If it does unplug it, disconnect and order a battery charger. Something isnt right.
Once charged for a while put the battery back into the phone which allowed me to flash fastboot and RSD. Now make sure you have a full battery before doing this again.
I am not responsible for damage you inflict on yourself or phone. This can be dangerous. Electric shock, fires, exploding battery, etc may occur. Please try at your own risk. But this is what I did, ive learned my lesson to never flash on a low battery. Always charge fully.
You could also put the battery back in the phone and not have to wait for the battery to charge. Although you risk destroying your phone. And not just your battery.

Hi. Like you mentioned I had the same issue. I managed to fix it!
Go to this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1163009
Download .zip for your carrier (Att or international) and then enter to CWM Recovery:
Plug your mobile to wall charger and hold volume down button. Then press volume down until you see android recovery - press up and it will lunch CWM recovery (I'm assuming You have got CWM installed for unlocked and you have unlocked BL). Then wipe your data and simply apply zip that you have downloaded. This Solved my problem.
I don't what caused the problem but What i did was:
1. I have Unlocked BL using pudidng for international.
2. Flashed via fastboot system.img for 2.3.4 OrangeFR
3. Applied fix for RAM
4. Installed CWM for Unlocked
5. Nand Backup
6. Applied cherry blur in CWM
7. Applied RAM fix for 4.5.91
Up to this point - no problems. I restored all apps via titanium. I went to sleep and when I woke up this morning my mobile was off and I couldn't switch it on.
I have connected to the charger and then the mobile went on immediately. After few sec went off again and then on. I thought the battery is dead untill I've read this thread.
Things I can do ONLY while my mobile is connected to charger:
1. Enter fastboot - but I'v got msg that battery is to low to flash...
2. Enter CWM Recovery
3. Once I'm in CWM I can unplug from Charger and connect to PC.
3. ADB sees my device

To me cherry ROM drained my battery from 50% to 0% over the night and somehow I wasn't able to charge my mobile and even switch it off with the battery inside. This is strange...
I have the same problem with cherry blur... everything is perfect but battery life is suckinng

Faced same issue - fixed
Hey there,
i faced the same issue couple of days back. My battey was completely drained. As soon as I connected my phone to ac charge, it would star and stuck at the Moto logo without charging the battery at all. I was able to rebot my phone to recovery, but none of the recovery zip worked for me. I was not able to use flashboot since always got the low battery warning.
Finally had to order the spare battery charger from Amazon and charge my battey to boot into flashboot and flash the HKTW image. Once i flashed to HKTW i was bale to apply the latest 4.5.91 zip using CWM. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
SK

This did the trick, thank you SO much
Go to local AT&T and ask to leave your battery in a display for a few hours and come back and pick it up.
I rooted my G2 about two months ago. I'm currently using MIUI, not the latest but the one before it. Somehow, my phone got turned off and when I tried to turn it back on, it was stuck in a bootloop. I have a custom recovery image so I don't know if that affects anything. I tried to reboot into recovery by pressing volume down and power, nothing happened. I then did volume up and power. It vibrated three times and the orange light started flashing. I pulled the battery and now when I try to turn it on, nothing happens. So how do I reboot into recovery and so I can restore my backup? Any help/suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Never pull the battery during something like that. It sounds like your bricked. Someone else confirm?
I don't think it's bricked. I plugged it up and then Clockwork came up so I selected reboot now. Clockwork came up again so I tried to restore my latest backup and the screen went black. I'm going to let it charge and then give it another try.
Ok good. That's lucky because whenever you pull on a boot like that, it usually bricks. If you have the option, try to re-flash your ROM. Maybe even try stock. If you were getting a black screen, it's most likely you flashed incorrectly.
Ok, I was able to boot into recovery and now I'm restoring my backup. I don't think I had a custom recovery image with this one so hopefully I won't get stuck in a bootloop. When you say stock, do you mean before I flashed MIUI (it was the first rom I flashed)? Thank you for your suggestions and all of your help.
first install adb on you PC, it helps a lot in these kind of cases.
1. try "adb logcat", it would tell you about what's going on in your machine.
2. once you get your adb working, try "adb reboot recovery" to see if it could boot your phone in recovery.
3. if after doing everything you fail to boot either your phone or in recovery then try using PC10IMG to boot a stock rom and then re-root your phone.
I got it back working. For some reason, I'm just starting to think that it needed charging (the battery had been out for about a day or two). I do have adb installed and configured on my computer since I needed it to root. Thank you for your suggestions, I will definitely rember them if this happens again.
lol of course when you get black screen and led blnking means your battery begging for juice, you're lucky that when the phone booted back in recovery and you tried to restore a backup the phone went off before actually starting to restore, that would've bricked your phone
DO NOT FLASH ANYTHING WITHOUT AT LEAST 40% OF JUICE LEFT
I know it sounds improbable......but my wifes phone was at 3% battery the other night.
She says "whoa I better get this thing on a charger"
Then a phone call came in....after about 1/2 a minute the phone shut down. She plugged it into a charger and waited a few minutes.
The phone would not turn on until the orange charge LED stopped blinking.
Once she did get the phone to turn back on - it had done a full factory reset....sort of.....all apps were gone from ALL the home screens....wallpaper was gone.
Phone is rooted.
We have both Titanium and ROM manager on the phone.
It's been a long time since I've had to do a restore.
What's the procedure to get the phone back to the way it was prior to the reset ?
Is it through Titanium ? or in Recovery mode ?
Thanks for the help.

Well if you have a backup made, just go to recovery wipe everything in the mounts and storage menu exvept emmc and sdcard, and then restore your backup. If cwm recovery got wipedout you will need to flash it first, thru hboot if your s-off or thru fastboot if your unlocked.
If you have no backup or you dont feel the need to start fresh, you can just use titanium to just restore your apps and data. If you go this way though you might as well wipe everything and start with a fresh rom install, and then restore your apps with titanium.
