I cannot seem to get my phone to just go into charge only mode. I haven't been able to for a while, is there a fix for this?

If you're talking about what I think you are, go to Settings, Applications, Development and uncheck Stay Awake. I had the same problem and that seemed to have fixed it.

This will allow for me to turn the phone off and plug in the charger and the phone will go into the "Charging" mode instead of booting up... mine just sits on the motor logo and never goes into that mode... I am using tenfars newest recovery and beta 4 gingerbread... not sure if those could affect this charging mode...

My guess is either 2.3.4 (i'm on the "ota" version and you're on hktw) or being unlocked.
Leaning towards unlock... but who knows. Anyone unlocked not on 2.3.4 have this issue?
Better question. Why are you turning it off to charge it? Just plug it in.

Sometimes u drain your battery to the point it shuts off. And sometimes you want a quicker charge. I don't think he needs to validate why though...
i had the same problem. i would drain the battery accidentally, plug the phone into the charger, and it would hang on the moto logo. i would have to pull the battery after letting it charge for a while and it would boot up.
i'm almost certain all you have to do is go into System Recovery and click on charge mode. i don't think it matters if your phone is plugged in or not. just give it time to reboot on its own.
I am not using the old version of tenfar, I removed that app after putting on the new recovery. I recall the last time I used it though I definitely used the charge mode...

Thanks but system recovery charge mode didn't work either and yea battery pull is and turning it it on without being plugged in is the only way to boot it.
i'm thinking its the unlock. Prior to unlocking I've never experienced such issues before.
How can i run clockwork without turning my phone on? My phone is bootlooping at the moment so i cant turn it on to run System Recovery. When i run recovery from boot the traditional way it only loads the factory recovery...
Put it into stock recovery and factory reset

You just need to plug it in to a wall charger

okay i figured it out. Pull the battery from the phone. Press and hold the down volume buttom while plugging the phone into a wall charger. You should see "fastboot" at the top. Then very quickly almost simultaneously press volume down then volume up it should quickly reboot into clockwork if done right.

It sounds like your battery needs to be charged. Get an external charger, or charge it in another phone. Once it is charged, you may need to do a hard reset.
I can't go to bootloader so I can't flashing RSD
battery is full, after charger with dekstop charger
If you can't get into bootloader with volume up and power, or with volume down and power button, then I think you have a brick.

Charge the battery manually, red wire to positive and black to negative.

but I don't know! how to fix?
pls help me how to fix short-circuit on motorola photon
Take battery out, cut a usb cable(any kind), red wire to positive and black wire to negative. Plug cable into changer. Wait 30 minutes. Unplug and try again

If you have a brick....you're kinda outta luck. But.....there should be a stock file to flash via SBF if you can still get to that part. Not sure if you can......
I had the same looking problem. But my screen and battary was cool. When I tried to turn it on, nothing happend, even when I connected a charged, led showed nothing.
To make it work I did such things:
-firsty take the battery out for a while, then put in
-connect via USB to PC and push power button
-without disconnecting it from UBS, take out the battery for a second and put it in again.(then it turnes on by it selfe, without pushing a poer button. If it not pappens try to push it.)
I repeated this a lot of times, but at the end it turned on)))
thanks for all solution
I will try one by one
I will tell again the result
Also, pull battery, let both cool down, freeze battery, then charge phone. Had to do it with a Sony Erricson x10a

Did you calibrate your battery? You are supposed to everytime you install a new rom. Charge to 100 percent, boot to recovery, wipe battery stats, drain the battery down till phone powers off, plug it in and boot to android, charge to 100 again without break.

If you let the phone power down by itself, when you plug it in it will boot to the charge only screen. If you hold the power button as you plug it in and keep it held it will skip that screen and boot straight to android. And yeah, try not to use the phone while its charging.

So it didn't work for me I don't know what might be wrong
Edit: so I'm back on stock no root no nothing so I'm guessing it was either the root access or unlocking my bootloader do you have any issues with this on your phone if not can u lead to the files u have installed? Thank you in advance

Whats not working? The holding the power button thing? Thats ok, it doesnt screw up the process of calibrating. It will let you hold the power button and boot to android from the charging screen once it registers anything more than 0 percent. It also takes a few days of use after the calibration to really see a change. Youre just reading a little too far into it. Just boot to 100, wipe bat stats, drain it to 0, boot it back up and let it charge to 100. Use your phone normally for a few days after that and youll notice the difference.

Yes. It willmore than likely stop doing that after a few charge cycles. If it doesnt, report back =)

Okay so I went ahead and got a replacement battery from sprint today I'm on 6 hours of usage and I'm at 55% no battery drain I'm afraid that rooting or unlocking the boot loader did something to my battery do u think that's possible thanks for all the help @acvice

Phone: XT910 Razr Maxx
State: Brand new
I'd soft bricked my phone and used Eternity Project's EU Final ICS Fastboot files to restore back to normal using a Factory Cable.
The problem is that when plugged in, the phones shows 100% charged and as soon as I unplug the phone, the battery meter becomes 0% and powers off! When I keep it charging overnight, it retains charge for a little while longer, but stills powers off randomly. When I place it on charge, it shows 100% again, but becomes 0% as soon as it is unplugged! I cannot access stock recovery as it shows the 'dead android robot' image! What can I do?
Tried all the following:
- Safestrap and Custom ROMs (same result)
- BMM and Custom ROMs (same result)
Any ideas?
When you see the dead Android simply push & hold vol + and vol - at the same time. From there it should take you to stock recovery

Hey thanks! That did the trick. I did a data/cache wipe and rebooted. Still facing the battery drain problem. Any idea what the battery problem is all about? When plugged in, it shows 100%, when unplugged, it just dies out on me!
If you still have bmm you can wipe battery stats - but i doubt that will do much for your problem. Fingers crossed your battery isn't stuffed

Thanks, I did that with BMM. No diff. battery dies out showing 0% and then when i switch on, it comes back showing 50%. It's insane actually!
That's no good man.. Could be a stupid question but have u tried a different cable
