Are you using clockwork recovery? I believe that causes the issue you describe.

If you have ClockworkMod recovery:
Download ROM manager from market then update your recovery with it.

Oh thanks I will download the new recovery thanks a lot

I use tw recovery and I don't think mine charges when off. I think I read somewhere that that was a recovery kernel issue.

Is it working yet?

My battery is too low to run fast boot

Hello...I just unlocked my bootloader and tried to CWM 2.3.4 using the new version of CWM by tenfar...I am stuck on the Motorola boot screen and my battery is too low to flash...I tried to pull the battery and put the phone on an ac charge but that did not work...any assistance is greatly appreciated
Hi,
Easiest solution is to get a universal charger from Radio Shack, $10.
Cheers!
Remove battery, put the phone in AC mode, then place battery in. It takes about 3-5 hrs to charge, then it should be okie. I met this problem too Solved that way!

. First off nice job digging up this dead corpse. Of course he found a solution. Know what it is? Dont use Tenfars recovery anymore because its completely outdated and will cause problems. As far as being able to charge yer phone are u trying to plug it in to a computer? Because if battery dies it wont work to plug it in to the comp.

No solutions on here yet?
Well, this is what I did, not sure if it will completely work yet, but so far it's doing it's thing.
- I plugged the phone into the charger adapter
- Booted the phone without holding volume down
- let the phone charge itself
- monitor battery level with volume buttons
Once that was done I could continue, as phone does not charge during flashing.
Or am I way off here?

HTC amaze battery issue not charging, led blinkig on and off

I have had this phone for a while everything was working fine as far as i know its not due to software issue, two days ago i turned on the phone it sudendly started to really heat up quickly i mean fast on the back next to the camera ,not sure why ,so the i noticed i was at 56 percent so i started to charge the battery left it charging after a while i picked up the phone and again it was even hotter after seeing that the battery was at 22 percent i, so i thought ok it was a software issue reflashed the phone as quickly as i could had a spare battery that was fully charged tried putting in that one same thing after the phone Booted up , it started to heat up again getting really hot and still not charging left the cable plugged in all night , in the morning i looked at the phone again the led on top was red turning on and of phone still hot, went to the tmobile store bought a Brand new battery Yes its original htc battery tried charging that one too failed led turns off and off (red color) PLEASE HELP I LOVE THIS PHONE
Did you try turning it off and charging it. The phone won't charge if it's too hot. Led will blink red then green then off

Don't take this the wrong way, but a little correct punctuation would make reading your super long question easier. Just really hard to follow

What recovery are you using? I've only had that problem when using older CWM recoveries on this phone. Try using 4EXT recovery it resolved all my issues and the developer supports his product.

+1 on checking your recovery. I had this problem when I was using TWRP (or whatever the acronym is) recovery. I switched over to 4EXT and haven't encountered that problem since. To update the recovery you may need to acquire a charged Amaze, HTC Evo 3d, or Sensation battery. :/
It may be the cwm your using

Mine does this occasionally too, but only when using a USB or car charger never an AC charger. I am also using 4ext touch.

There is definitely something wrong. You need to return everything to stock and call htc.

I think it has to do with the heating this happens when my phone gets to hot I fixed it by flashing the new kernel haven't had a heating problem in a while

HTC 3D Red dim light.

So guys.... I woke up this morning and my phone was dead. Last night I plugged it in and it was charging normal (I used a new USB cable and not the one I am using a year now)... Anyway I woke up this morning and I pressed the power button and nothing came up.... I took off its battery and pressed the power button for a bit....then plugged the battery back in and the usb as well.... A dim red light came on....and then the usual charging light came on as well for 2-3 secs...and then it died.
I also tried to plug it on my computer....and the phone turned on and went to HTC white screen for 2 secs and then it turned off as well...
I am not sure what else can I do so if someone has any idea can you please enlighten me....because I am going nuts without my 3D!
The phone is s-off with clockwork recovery and cool ICS rom...and it was working perfectly.
PS: I noticed there are some red stripes on the battery...on the water indicator..is that okay?
That happened to me when my battery was severely drained, I needed a clip charger to charge the battery... Now I do not let my phone go off due to battery drain... Because it will happen again.. I believe that your battery is also degrading.... Just like mine. It is not also advisable that you use a different charger especially if the output power does not match. So don't let it go off again due to battery drain. Just my experience.

I am using that apple charger for like 4 years now on different HTC models...no problem at all... I think that new USB cable did the damage....the phone wasn't charging... and it drained the battery down...

yes please..... because its driving me nuts...that dim red light and the bright one for 2 secs is a kick in the head for me!!! hahaha btw its kinda odd that it tried to start on my computer USB??? it flashed the HTC screen for 2 secs !!
Just install 4EXT recovery as soon as your phone boots and you're good to go without the drain bug forever
Sent from my Evo 3D GSM using xda app-developers app
One thing you can do now is really to charge with a clip charger. Unless you want to wait forever charging the battery in the phone. Because your priority is to make your phone boot. When you made your phone boot you can then charge normally.
well guys you are not going to believe it.... I plugged my phone in to its HTC charger and went downstairs to eat...in the mean time...I switched on my tabled GSM module (I have 2 sim cards with the same number...)...so i went upstairs again and called my number to see if my tablet will pick up the call..... and my phone suddenly started ringing! Anyway problem solved with patience!

[Q] Rooted Stock AT&T - won't charge when off?

I rooted my phone yesterday evening. Used it all night at work and plugged it in when I got home this morning. The red charging light went on as usual. When I woke up this afternoon the red light was still on, when I turned it on, it hadn't charged at all. I plugged it back in without turning off the phone and it's charging fine now.
Any idea what's going on?

So I saw on another site that if you flash the stock AT&T recovery you can get off-mode charging back. Can anyone point me to a download link for the stock recovery?
People turn their phones, off?
Haha... yeah, old geezers like me do.
P.S. I got the recovery by the way...

My HOX+ ran of out charge completely yesterday while I was playing a game on the phone. I plugged the phone in for charging via USB, the red light blinked three times and stopped.

I have tried already tried to hard reset (power + volume down) the device. No sign of recovery! I also tried removing the SIM card and tried charging. This wasnt of much help either.
Please help with out any charge I'm not able to see a lot of options for my phone????

My recovery is kind of under a big question mark. I was using CWM but due to certain reason i wanted to shift to twrp. So i got rid off the CWM and flashed Twrp. However when i booted into recovery it just showed a black screen. This happened about two weeks ago tho. Could this be the issue?

Could be,
Visit Lloir's thread or TWRP official site and install the TWRP that is relevant to you (INTL / ATT)
you need to restart in fastboot to flash recovery.

I did that previously. I used the recovery suggested for my phone. Something still went wrong with the recovery.
I cant restart in fastboot. The phone is dead, No charge to even flash a ROM or do anything to recover my phone.
I think its time to give it to HTC. Hopefully since the phone doesn't switch on they probably wouldn't be able to figure out its rooted.
Thanks for your help guys but I think its time to call it.
Time of death- 10:28 P.M

Okay So I left the phone on charge for 27 hours. No lights and no sign of any activity. So then I had this little whack idea
I plugged my phone into the PC first. As I mentioned earlier- When I plugged my device into the PC the light blinked three times and then no light at all.
So this time when i plugged it into the PC I held the power button and waited for the three blinks after this I quickly took the usb cord and plugged it into an AC adapter while still holding the power button and Voilaaa
The phone is completely functional again.
Glad to have put you on the right track

But never when it is not even turning on...
Hi All.
Not exactly the same problem but very similar. I've opened my HOX+ a little (just enought to measure the pogo pins by inside). Then, when my device got discharged (already closed), I plugged the AC power and turned it on. During the boot screen, It suddenly turned off and now, when I plug the power the only thing I got is a red light blinking forever. No boot screen.... My device was unlocked and flashed with Elegancia for some days before it happened.
Does anyone has any ideas? Now I have a pretty fancy paperweight!

the flashing red lights = it's charging but not enough juice to boot, so leave it on an AC charger for about 30minutes

After some hours, all still the same. I think that this could be due to a bad contact. I dont know? Any other thoughts?
