Ok my n10 is rooted and romed with CARBON rom, no problems nothing, but today I had an email come in I looked at it set It down left the screen on a second later it just died. so I plugged it in back on it comes. later same thing almost dead checked new email, set it down screen on then death.....plugged it in again, now nothing except a flashing battery charging symbol. been charging for 10 min. tried power, power volume down, nothing....got a different cable...nothing.....my computer wont pick it up either. what do I do?????
PLEASE HELP!!!
I just had this same problem with mine; because of the strange battery issue where my battery would read 90% when it was actually empty and slow charging once it was plugged in... The resolution for me was to plug it into the charger for 5 minutes and not touch it and then try a power on.

Thanks Ill give it a go!!
Plug it in to the wall charger, not a computer. Let it sit for 30 minutes and then hold all buttons down at the same time. This should let the tablet boot now and will bring you into fastboot mode. It defaults to "Start" so just hit the power button and the tablet will boot like normal. Once you verify the tablet will boot fine, shut it down and leave it plugged into the wall charger until the tablet is charged all the way.
Dont know if it is a coincidence or not but this is the 3rd time I have heard the same story and all people were using the Carbon ROM.
Thanks guys for the feedback, definitely will be switching roms and buy the pogo charger!

I just took my atrix out of my pocket and its turned off itself, everytime i try to turn it on, the LED light turns green and then goes off. nothing, black screen!
Try pulling the battery out. that should fix it.
I am having this same problem, I've taken the battery out multiple times and tried to do resets but nothing happens. It stays off and only the LED blinks green when I press the power button.

What build are you running? Did you just do the update?
Plug to wall charger.
Same thing happened to me the other day. It's probably because your battery is drained. Plug into a wall charger and let it charge for at least 30 minutes.
Haha thank you guys. I had it plugged into my laptop all night like I do every night to charge. I guess it didnt work. Plugged it into the wall and the screen popped right on. Thanks again!
I can't believe people panic post like this!.......Help, my television wont turn on........did you plug it in? Help, my car wont start.........did you put the key in the ignition?..........Help, my phone wont turn on..........Did you charge the battery?
C'mon people!!!!!

First of all, your reply has no useful information whatsoever, second, when the device works just fine for month while plugged in into computer then one morning it doesn't wake up, what do you expect people do? And why in the world would it matter for a good built phone that charges through USB matter if it's plugged in into computer or a wall charger? - it's nonsense...
In fact, there are many other phones that even if the battery dead it would work when plugged in into computer, even removing battery wouldn't shut it down.
In Atrix case if battery died you have to find a wall charger, then wait 30 minutes? seriously? - well done, Motorola, well done!

It's not nonsense. USB can only provide 500mA of current, wall chargers pretty much can double or triple that. That's why it takes ages to charge any phone over USB compared to a wall charger.
First of all, why are you digging up this relic of a thread? The comment you're responding to is from 4 months ago.
Second of all, @CaelanT is right, sometimes people panic unnecessarily. It happens. And his comment does offer something useful, it's a reminder that sometimes it can be the simplest of things that will resolve your issue.
Third of all, @turl1 is correct about the mA output, that's just common sense, though some newer computers are capable of 1Amp of output.
Have a nice day.

so ye, basically goto train it again...
and as much as possible...USE UR ORIGINAL CHARGER !!!
I´m on Paranoid Android, last version. I was whaching a movie with less than 4% battery, and It powered off. Problem is that It doesn´t boot and It doesn´t charge either.
Please please Help!!!
Sorry for my english
Hopefully your up by now after letting the device charge for a while. If not I'll throw this fix out in case it's a software problem. I have no idea, but: The Nexus 7 has a similar situation of not accepting charge after the battery runs dead. Maybe the same fix will work? With the charger plugged in, hold your power/vol button combo to boot into bootloader/recovery. From there select power off. Then the tablet "should" accept charge. It's the first idea I thought of, but I thought that was an Asus problem.

The problem is that you can´t boot into bootloader/recovery. Tablet doesn´t respond. When charger plugged in, It shows icon of battery when pressing power button but it dissappears in a second....
Hold power button 15-20 seconds until it vibrates & release. If no boot then, unplug and try it. I had this problem once also. Mine finally booted when unplugged for some reason (after being on a wall charger for a couple hours). Someone told me during my ordeal to first plug into a computer for the 1st hour, then go to the wall charger. I think holding until vibrate was the key for me, or so it seemed.

It seems to be charger´s fault. I can confirm it in one hour...
Edit: It was the charger...
So I was using the new Hangout app to video chat, ignored the 4% battery warning, and eventually the phone shut off due to low battery.
After that I attempted to charge it all night, using various USB cables, wall units, the charging orb, and without, and a PC, and nothing happened after leaving it all night.
Holding the power button does nothing, trying to load the bootloader nothing, and holding both volume buttons and power does nothing. Simply unable to boot it or turn it anyway on.
Plugged into the PC also shows nothing.
I called google and requested an RMA, but I'd like to see if there was a way to backup some pictures from it.
Is there any known solution for this? I feel like the battery died beyond the point of no return or something.

It is really drained then... You can fix it by Manually applying current to it so it can charge a little. That's the only fix I can think of. And if I remember correctly there is a thread here on XDA which demonstrates the procedure.
Charge it for 5 mins, unplug it, then plug it back in.
I heard an answer to this somewhere, if you browse the N4 forums for a while you might find it, bit I think it was charge it for a few hours via normal USB, then hold power for 30 seconds to a minute? You might need to charge it for a few hours again after and hold power for 30s again. Good luck

Same thing Happened to me.. it died overnight and I plugged it in in the morning and now I checked a few hours later and it didn't charge! Wont turn on, I've tried various button combos and different chargers and cables.. Help!!!
I'm alive! Phew. So After trying all the combos with it plugged in.. I eventually waited an hour or 2 hoping it would charge.. and then tried the same thing after unplugging it ( after giving up and running out of ideas). With the phone unplugged I did power+volumne down and within a few seconds I felt a buzz and got into the bootloader.. then I rebooted. Phone booted up but battery was at 0 so it shut off instantly. But now when i connected the charger back I got the battery icon - Yay, it started charging!
This worked for me so just putting it out there in case it can help someone else

Yea, I got it working the same way also, why is it so iffy? The phone shouldn't even need a battery to boot if it's plugged in.
It should be able to bypass the battery power check to USB, and charge the battery in the meantime.
So i was playing a game called The room battery was at 1% but was connected to a charger and it suddenly powered off and a red light started to blink then the light disappeared and now it is connected to the charger and has no response, is my phone dead? :S i'm so nervous.
The device may not respond until it is fully charged. I think it's best if you wait until it's charged fully and see what goes from there.

Maybe it's the adapter that's broken? Try changing adapter/cable or try charging using your PC

So many threads on this. Charge your phone overnight. Not working? Rip off the back cover and disconnect and reconnect it. That's a no go? Check another thread.... Wish you luck

When I have get the red light I have to keep trying to power it on taking the charger in and out. Last time took 30 mins for it to go away of continuously trying to power on and taking charger in and out. The reason I do this is because if you leave it on charge with the red light on the phone will not charge. You can leave it over night and the red light will still be there and your phone won't be charged! It will only charge if you get the charger screen up and the red light is off.
Happens to me if don't have much battery and I try to watch something on the TV with slimport connected

plug it in, and press and hold volume up plus power for 60 seconds, then release. It should then power up automatically or press the power button again. This key combination is the equivalent of a battery pull, which is what you have to do when it gets locked up like that or battery drains too low.
none of those worked i tried it's bricked i guess

Your phone's fine. The reason it powered down even though it was plugged in is because it was at 1%, and considering you were playing a game your phone was probably expending power faster than it could charge.
When there's absolutely no power left it won't respond no matter how long you hold down the power button. Just plug it in & let it charge for a few hours don't worry.
source: this happens to everybody who uses their phone extensively at some point

It's not bricked, there are a lot of threads about it around here. You have to charge the battery, and keep trying with vol down + power, until it takes you to recovery. From there choose reboot.

you have to disconnect the battery and charge it withe external charger for an hour then reconnect your battery . i hope this help you .
Hi all, my note 3 just died in a strange way.
2 hours ago i it was working in the train. When i got home it was about 10%. Took it out once while smoking and put it back charging again. Half an hour ago i turned on the screen to see if i got any messages. Turned of the screen again. Half an hour later i wanted to check again, but the phone was off.
It wont turn on anymore. Tried my second battery, not working. Checked my usb cable, it was charging my external battery.
After this i plugged the phone in to charge again to see what would happen. I dont see any battery icon in the screen, the led is also not working. The battery feels cold. But the area around the camera is pretty hot. Still won't do nothing.
Has anyone any idea what this unexpected dead is about? Not rooted, not wet, not dropped, like i said, i was checking my messages half an hour ago while it was charging.

have you tried taking your phone into recovery mode (volume up+home+power)?

Yes, it is not reacting to anything. I thought maybe the power button is bricked, but that would not explain why it is not showing the battery logo and led light while charging.

Plugged usb cable into my laptop, took out battery, connected phone to cable, tried recovery and power, both not working. The upper area of the phone gets hot though. So the laptop is giving power to it i guess.
Think warranty mate sorry shouldn't be get hot

Ok thanks, what a shame.
Any technical people who might have know what caused it? Could it be a power shortcut or some kind of malware in the background? It's a really stupid death.
Mine did this
Was only 2 weeks old.
Took it back to the shop, and got it replaced.
It wouldnt charge even with the phone off
Common fault with them
similar thing happened to my wifes s2 turned out to be the motherboard
I have visited a support center. They told me the battery was giving 4.2 Volt to the phone instead of 3.8 Volt. So the phone and the battery are both broke. He told me this doesn't happen often.
