Brand new Atrix won't charge. Green LED.

I installed/flashed Gingerblur yesterday and it was working fine for the whole day. At night, I put it back into it's case because I'm still waiting for my New Screen Protector and Case to come. I take really good care of it. Then I did not use the phone for the whole day. After having a really bad day, I started up my brand new Atrix for some fun and it was already at around 5% battery left so I went ahead and tried to charge it. I noticed plugging it into the computer did not work, so I tried wall charging it and that also did not work.
To sum it up,
Symptoms:
-Green Led for 2-3 seconds when I hold down the top main button then shuts off led. Note: Only happens/works if the phone is plugged into the wall.
-Green Led for 4 or more seconds if I plug in wall charger then shuts off led.
-No visual image on screen after battery drained out at all.
What can I do? I don't think I bricked it since it was working perfectly yesterday. Is there anything I can do? I have tried removing battery with no avail, it is plugged in to the wall charger still for the past hour.

This is a very weird problem and I don't know the exact answer..I just know i bricked my atrix before (failed to flash on a full battery) and couldn't charge the dead battery even on AC.
I ended up buying a universal battery charger from radioshack and then returning it once I got my battery fully charged and flashed the rom. Haven't had any battery problems since.
Hope this helps

Thanks, I will try this but it is night time right now. I hope someone else has had experience of this before and can guide me to any other directions.
I did not fail a flash, unless the flash can fail even if Gingerblur was working 100% before it failed. I don't know if thats possible.

Are you using the usb cable/charger that came with the phone?
I know it sounds ridiculous but the phone does NOT charge on any of my existing MicroUSB cables or wall chargers (used to have a nexus one). Pretty bummed about that :/

Yeah I am using the one that came with it.
I also want to update that I've tried my sister's HTC Inspire charger and an old Samsung charger I have left around.
Both are USB to wall Adapters (I am not using the same wall power adapter for each charger) so I wonder if I need the one that plugs directly into the wall?

Yeah, you probably just have a dysfunctional battery or charger, either way, you're going to have to diagnose which one is the problem (fingers crossed that it isn't the phone)
/e:
it sounds like its not the charger, from your most recent post.
I think your phone is the problem, it's not processing how to charge the battery from the cable.

Common problem. You need at least 850mA to charge the phone, so older usb ports wont work. The wall charger is actually working. Pull the battery out, put it back in, plug in the wall charger(don't press any buttons!) and let it sit for about 30min to get a decent charge. Should boot up after that.

Hm, it's been charging for over an hour now and still hasn't turned on. But I did not do it exactly as you said. I unplugged the battery acouple times but I always try to hold the "fingerprint" on button right after plugging it in. I'll try not pressing anything this time. Thanks, I'll post back if I get any results.

The phone should turn on if charging, you don't need 850mA either. Standard USB is 500 and it just charges slower. I know this for a fact as I just charged it like that.
Take it into a store or contact where you bought it from.
Plugging in phone while off: Green LED for a bit, moto logo, battery icon
Power on, no charger : green light for a bit longer, moto logo, boot animation.
Try an at&t stores charger and see if theyll let you charge the battery.

With a dead battery you need 850 mAH. The phone needs 850 mA ti boot and it needs to boot to charge (strange yes but software controls the charge).
I would suggest trying all the chargers you can (the Moto one may be giving you to little amps) and if that does not work you can try to either 1) make a dev cable (post on how to in the dev section, though it requires soldering and such so you may not be able to do it if you don't have supplies) or 2) get a charger for the battery (one to directly charge the battery vice through the phone).

The battery method did not work, I did not try to hold the main button until 1 hour later to no avail. I'm going to Best Buy tomorrow for a replacement.

Edit: Oops..Too late to the party! I had the same issue that was fixed when I used a good quality micro-usb charger!

850ma? You sure?
I've charged and booted my phone from dead on a 700ma charger and 500ma usb on numerous occasions.

U need not worry .. put it in a wall charger .. and let it sit dere for atleast an hour .. the green led will come up when charge level reaches around 50% or more .. be patient ..

I had the exact same issue the other day. I forgot to put my phone on charge at night, and it was dead in the morning. I plugged into the wall with my Moto charger, the phone turned on and went right to CWM. I rebooted from there, the phone showed 5% battery level, and within 10-15 minutes was at 20%.
I thought it strange my phone went right to the old Tenfar CWM even though I uninstalled it after unlocking my phone and installing the latest CWM from Tenfar.
It does seem that the shut off with the battery is 5%. I am assuming this is the safety factor built into either the Android OS, or the batteries themselves, as they do have circuits in them much like mini computers to shut them off before 100% discharge, as this will kill a Lithium Ion battery.
Some simple facts regarding the Lithium Ion batteries:
•They start degrading as soon as they leave the factory. They will only last two or three years from the date of manufacture whether you use them or not.
•They are extremely sensitive to high temperatures. Heat causes lithium-ion battery packs to degrade much faster than they normally would.
•If you completely discharge a lithium-ion battery, it is ruined.
•A lithium-ion battery pack must have an on-board computer to manage the battery. This makes them even more expensive than they already are.
•There is a small chance that, if a lithium-ion battery pack fails, it will burst into flame.
What I would like to know is why some people have problems getting a charge back in the Atrix after a complete discharge. There I was at 20% after 10-15 minutes using the Moto wall charger, while other people can't even get their phones to turn on after an hour on the wall charger.

I have the same problem, tried everything and finally found a solution
Get a warranty replacement.
The phone won't turn on, so they don't know what you did to it.
Got my new phone today, popped the dead battery in and voila, it charges !
Sometimes it's like people say, it's because of the charge, but your phone probably have issue, just get a replacement

I let it charge all night and it still has the same symptoms. Going to Best Buy in an hour when it opens.
When I get my new phone, should I Gingerblur it again or am I going to face this same issue? Was this software related or hardware?
Gingerblur was relatively easy to do, but I don't want to risk killing my phone a second time.
UPDATE: Got a replacement phone. Complementing whether I want to Gingerblur it again because that's the only thing that could have caused the battery issue other than it being hardware related.

You can try it again should work fine for you. If not...
You can always use their phone and your "dead battery" and visa versa theirs into your phone. Then if same issue happens. Just warranty the phone. If your in warranty do it. I've had g1's for no reason not charge. Led says it, os says it, yet NONE of my working batteries were getting any charge off the phone. Especially when the phone was 3 days old. Warranty.... if its free do it.

Yes if warranty then ok .. But we are here to do the impossible.. I just reconditioned a new battery just so it can turn phone on in same instance for a friend. So yes batteries and phones new can have charging issues.
There is an issue with smart-phones and batteries and has been since day one. If you are here then evidently you either love these phones and want to mod them or you are like me and love playing with electronics. Real simple if you in the smart-phone world there are a few rules of thumb..
1.) Never begin working without a fully charged battery (some say 51% or better I say 100% )
2.) Buy , borrow , get an external battery charger and/or stronger wall charger
3.) Extra batteries are always good.
4.) Read the damn stickies and wiki's ... People have taken plenty of time creating them. Those who know me know I have written some myself.
5.) The biggest problem is located between the chair and the keyboard .... (lol)

SGS4 Not Charging

So I got my SGS4 about 8-9 weeks ago and flashed the Omega ROM. Everything was functioning perfectly up until this weekend just gone. The battery died on Friday night and then when I went to charge it on Saturday, it wouldn't charge. All that happens is the initial battery charging logo comes up, stays there for a few seconds and then reboots into the same thing, a loop (this happens charging both from a PC and from a wall outlet/power adapter).
The funny thing here is that it doesn't seem to be the port on the phone as it's recognising when something gets plugged in. I can even connect it to my PC and Odin can see it. I have borrowed a fully charged battery off a colleague and done a factory wipe/reset and flashed the stock ROM/firmware. Now I can boot in to the OS. However it still wont charge.
It seems as though the "charging" part of my phone is broken. The port seems to be functioning as the device realises when it's plugged in to either a PC or power adapter, it just wont charge.
Anyway, so I'm trying to figure out if this is a software or hardware problem before I attempt to send it back for warranty repairs.
Let me know if any further details are required. Any input is appreciated. Thanks in advance

Although the pc and odin are abe to recognize your phone....there could be dirt particles stuck inside the micro usb port....because we always carry our phones in our pockets...the lint and pieces of thread can get it....i suggest you try n clean it with a small pin....i did it to my phone...and it was much better....but please do be careful..... also try to replace your data cable with an original cable from somewhere else...because with time these cables wear out.....just try it out...good luck....hope you get your phone back to charging condition

Thanks for the recommendations guys. I tried it with the cable/charger that came with the device but there was no difference.
I'll try and give it a careful clean sadeshmagic. Cheers.

If you can find it I would suggest instead of a pin, a can of compressed air. This means no damage to the connectors as you aren't sticking anything in there and any dust/lint/crud get blown out....

Just to provide some closure on this, I got it repaired under warranty and the fpcb board was replaced. It now works fine. Thanks guys.

I have a feeling I might have a similar issue. Woke up this morning, phone dead - no indication from phone that it was charging.
Went to Sprint store and apparently, they dont sell batteries. Dude charged my battery for 20 minutes and my phone turned on, but no indication when charger plugged in that anything was happening.
Used a pin and X-acto to clean out this really gross piece of what appeared to be some kind of sticker/adhesive combined with lint, and now my phone shows as if its charging, but doesnt appear to be. I'm thinking one of the pins is probably corroded and need the same board.
Do you think that board is easy to replace or should I just try to get a replacement through insurance?

Very bizarre battery problem with my Note 4

Hi Guys,
Really need some help here. Just recently my note 4 has been failing to charge properly. When I plug my charger, it will charge for a few minutes with my official Samsung Charger but it will stop even with that. It will not charge at all connected to my laptop or my in car charger. This is what I have done so far..
1) Have bought a new battery (phone is 2 years old) New battery made no difference.
2) Have cleaned the hell out of the bottom connector on the phone (does nothing)
Not sure what else it can be. I love this phone and dont want to get rid but cant understand what is wrong.
So new battery, clean connectors, several re starts, taking out cleaning the sim and everything in the phone. What the hell else could it be??
Please help!!!

1.Open dialer and dial *#0228# and press (quick start)at the bottom and hit YES this will reset battery stats and clear and battery calibration issues then turn off your phone and charge full to 100% to recalibrate battery stats.
2.if the 1st method dosent works then Try factory reset
3.flash stock firmware in odin.

​Thanks but tried that and it say's 'invalid mmi code.' Tried factory reset as well still no joy. I just don't get it sometime it will charge for 10 minutes then just stop for no reason. Also when phone swtiched off it doesn't charge at all but vibrates intemittently. Any other suggestions? Thanks for your help.

Thanks but I have three different batteries for my Note 4 and they all do this. I fear there is something wrong with the connector in my phone, although it doesn't explain why it will charge for longer sometimes than others, this is what annoys me, its totally random!!! last night I got a full charge out of my phone, today, tried charging and nothing!!!
This is genuine mystery, has my phone got a virus or something?? Why does it charge sometimes then not other times?
I don't want to give up my Note 4 I love the damn thing, any further help would be appreciated with virtual alcohol!

Might be interesting to get one of those Qi wireless charging receivers and a wireless charger to see if it charges correctly that way, bypassing the USB port.
EDIT: I use the Fonesalesman one and a Choetech 3-coil charger.

Hmmm.... that's a good idea, but I thought that the note 4 wasnt capable to charge wireless without an adaptor that that
plugs into the USB port.
I could be wrong though.

I use wireless charging every day, never used the USB port except occasionally to copy large files over and to activate Helium for backup. It does, of course, take longer to charge, but I have a couple of wireless chargers about and just set the phone on whenever I'm near one. Phone rarely drops below 50% charge except if I'm out all day.
You need one of these, once you put the back cover on you'll hardly know it's there - I have a UAG case on too, so it's basically invisible:

and a wireless charger like one of these:

Hope this helps.

I bought a orignal bulky wireless cover, then modifit it and removed the qi plate and put it in the phone and use original cover..more slim and works
Thow i suspect that its other hardware falire..my phone is freezing/restarting without any damn special reason, wireless charge dosent work sometimes, it restarts while wireless charging ...all behaviour having something to do with the Power! i have 3 batteries.
O i think its something to do with hardware, thow i will test flashing a stock room again just to be sure. if nothing above helps u can do the same then if problem still remains so you need to take it to a repair shop.

Very annoying problem and one that frustrates me because its random! I got it charging for 25 minutes tonight before it, all of a sudden for no reason stops at 44%....
However I today received an external charger that I bought of eBay for a mere £5.99 it's great. Although it means I have to keep swapping batteries, it's by far the most cost effective solution. Until I see a phone that is a significant leap above the Note 4 I refuse to upgrade which, quite frankly the S.7 isn't...

Can no longer charge

Hi everyone. This is the first time anything like this has ever happened to me so bare with me.
I have a Galaxy Note 3 with a 10,000 mAh Zerolemon battery. I've flashed many ROMs, and have never had an issue like this before.
No matter what I do, what ever USB cord I use, charger, computers, everything, my phone will not charge.
I'm using the latest version of RRN (5.8.5) with the lineageos kernel.
I'm almost certain its something to do with the kernel, but I can't backup or restore at the moment.
Has anyone had this happen to them before?

Interesting. Because my SCL22 (Note 3, Japan) is unmolested. So if I reflash stock rom to a stock rom phone, it'll fix it? Hmm... OK! I'll give it a whirl but I suspect that it is a machete solution for a scapel's work.
I'll describe my exact problem for those just joining the conversation... Phone does not charge using the factory charger, ever (while powered on or off). While powered on and charging attempted with wall charger, all indications are given of it charging (red LED, bolt on battery, status listed as Charging); however, battery actively drains while 'charging' on the wall charger (again, while powered on or not). But, when connected to a computer, and charging status changes to (USB), it'll give the same charging indications (but say USB) and it'll actually charge.
What I have noticed is that there was a time that when I connected my phone [to the computer], I would have to tell it to charge from USB, or act as a file storage device; it was one or the other. I couldn't transfer files AND charge while connected to a computer. Now, I can. But it will not charge on any wall charger (wife and I both have same charger. Mine chargers her phone, hers drains my battery just like my own.) This is also while using the factory charging cable... it only charges using a computer.
Oh yeah... also doesn't charge while in Safe Mode, nor after the cache has been cleared.
If I have to reflash the device, I may as well root it again. I'm no longer playing Pokemon, so doesn't matter. I'll reply [with] whatever I end up doing and its results.

Le Eco Pro 3 suddenly wont charge

So I have been running AICP 13.0 for a couple weeks and love it. I woke up this morning and my phone didn't charge overnight despite being plugged in. It shows it is connected (the lighting bolt in the battery icon on the top right) but the led light doesnt display and it doesnt say charging. Other weird thing is everytime I plug the cord in the volumne starts adjusting itself up and down automatically and now sound is not working (microphone or speaker audio). Battery is now draining and I cant get it to charge. Any ideas why this could be? I have tried it with numerous cords and charging bricks, did a factory reset but still can't get it to work. I am now down to 20 percent battery life and am worried I have a hardware problem and am going to be without a phone for a couple days.
Anyone experience similar things or have ideas to try?
Also leeco doesnt have a us website anymore, so how do I contact them for support if needed?

Only idea a hardreset or clear coch?

Well, go back to any eUI vendor ROM (basically, stock) and see if it solves the issue. Preferably the same firmware version that your device was originally on. It could be a hardware issue or a software issue.
Sounds like a faulty charging port. You might need to replace yours. You can find replacement charging ports on Aliexpress, and a teardown here: http://www.myfixguide.com/manual/leeco-le-pro-3-teardown/ (the phone has the same internals as other LeEco phones, so you can consult various LeEco teardown videos too).
EDIT: now, I don't know if this will work for you, but freezing the phone for an hour might also get it to start charging again, but only do this as a last resort if it dies on you. And make sure you put it in a plastic bag first (obviously).

Ok I will locate the stock rom and flash it, I havent looked for it but it has to be on xda.
As far as replacing the charging port....I bought the phone in June so it should be under warranty correct? Does anyone know how we would get in touch with leeco support? Do we still have a warranty since they shut down operations in the US?
I still have 16 percent battery (I turned it off once I posted here so I could have juice to try ideas you guys would come up with, so hopefully I dont have to try the freezer trick.

Have you tried a different lead? I've had one leeco lead go on me, i almost chucked the charger until i realised it was the lead

Ymm, often the cable is broken.

Yes I have tried numerous cables and chargers. It has to be a hardware issue as it is dead now and won't charge at all is my thinking. When I plug a charging cord in it displays several quick red led blinks where it usually has the yellow led for charging but nothing else. When I tried it with my car charger this morning it got really hot very quickly.

Sadly, the stock charger cable is known to destroy the charge port. If you have always used the stock charger cable, then that is probably what caused the issue . I had to get my phone replaced for that reason about a year ago. If you do end up getting it fixed, get a certified USB-C cable and scrap the one that came with the phone. So sorry man...you shouldn't have to deal with this.
