I let my phone run dead and when I put it back on the charger, i had to wait til the led quit blinking to turn it back on. Well its been on for over 10 minutes and its still saying 1%. Any one else have this problem or a solution?

That didn't work. I tried restoring different ROM. The charger in using will charge my brothers LG Android, but mine won't. Funny, it will charge a little but in recovery, but spots and does nothing when it's running. I guess I'm going to have to take it in to best buy for an insurance claim. They told me they would exchange it if something went wrong. I guess I should restore it back to stock then.

I would try a different charger. I noticed with this phone different USB cables work while others don't , same with chargers. Maybe it's just my phone but it's defo picky about what you plug into it
Try charging it from your PC
Worth,a try

You could try charging it while you phone is off. Why take it back if you haven't tried everything yet?

Because I get anxious and make bad decisions. Lol
I was using the same charger for a month and today it was working, then all of a sudden it wouldn't charge my phone 1%. But would charge by brothers phone.
I came home and put it on my wall charger and it's working but charging is still slow. In fact, it still isn't fully charged yet. I'll get a different car charger tomorrow and see how things go from there.
Update- phone still hasn't fully charged. Wtf man....

my car charger doesnt charge my phone at all. I even noticed that the wall wart that i used forever in my OG evo doesnt charge this phone at all. It'll sustain the battery, but wont charge it. U may have mentinoed it, but are you using the factory wall wart and cable? If not try that or a tablet wall wart my Tf-201 wall wart works on mine.

Everything seems to be ok now. Like you said, the car charger would just barely hold the charge while I was using it. The car charger was some off brand I night from an Arab had station. In using the stock charger now and it's working ok. But my phone did dragon a while lot last might after it finally charged. Like 10 hours and 4 of then were sleeping. But I ran it down again and erased the battery stats and I'm recharging it up again now..

I tried but nothing seems to work
Pull Battery, Press and hold power and vol+ button with battery out. Hold for 30 seconds, install battery and wall plug and try to power up.
:/ still no luck, just has the white led light come on
Check the manual for the force reboot thins. I know the Xoom has one but I don't know about the photon. Worst case you try random button combinations!

This actually just started happening to me an hour ago. I plug in my phone every morning to charge it like normally...nothing, no charge, just a white led. I battery pull, still nothing. I unplug the charger, switch to a different wall socket, secure all the connections, it started charging. So I'm guessing a white led while the phone is off means bad connection, or bad battery.
Try a different charger or outlet before you go out and buy a new battery.
Same thing happened to me the phone required a battery remove and reinstall to get it to charge..it only worked once then i took it back to bb and they exchanged my phone since it was defective ..

Try powering with the Wall Charger instead of the USB in a computer
This must be contagious plugged wall charger into phone woke up to white led and dead battery. Car charger and computer usb works. Tried car charge with ac to cigarette plug didn't work. Now the same car charger doesn't work in car. Tried a powered usb hub didn't work. Who knows!?!?
Update:
Got a stand alone battery charger never had this kind of battery life. Phone charging circuit must have been half bad from day one.

I have a white galaxy note on AT&T rooted with saurom 7.1 and for some reason when I use my USB extension with the original or after market charging wire the phone will not charge, in fact it still uncharges while I'm using it but it shows it plugged in.
It's not the rom because it did it before I flashed it from stock and also on the ICS leak and now again on saurom 7.1. Without the extension though it charges perfectly normal and quickly. One day it took 6 hours to go from 2% to 13% while it wasn't in use. I've also tried using other extensions I have and the one identical one did the same thing and another shorter one actually didn't allow the phone to charge at all or show it was plugged in... What gives?

I would recalibrated the battery using a app that requires root in market.....wait till it hits 100 then recalibrate it....then let it drain all the way down....charge to 100 then do it again....this way the battery and system knows the true values...just my opinion I would try

Are you plugging into a wall outlet or a USB port on computer. There are a number of battery threads on here, but the quick recap is that the USB port on your computer isn't going to charge your Note very quickly or at all when you use it because the USB port doesn't provide enough power.
It'll charge much faster from the wall.
And even faster if you're not using it.

From the wall with a USB extension it took 5-6 hours to go up 12% without it, it goes to 12% in 5-7 minutes. This is without using it.

I had the same problem with my note, it wouldn't charge via data cable or factory charging cable or 3rd party cable. After speaking with Samsung they said that this is a known issue, but did not tell me what the issue was except that it did not affect the battery. They sent me a new device, and was instructed to use my original back cover, battery, and they sent me a replacement factory charging cable and was instructed to use it exclusively. I got the feeling it was a port/cable issue and that they were well aware of it with an efficient return policy set up. Maybe you won't have to go this route, but a free (new, not reman) phone is a free phone.
So my phone will not charge over 20% and its getting super hot... I'm talking melt the back hot... I took the otter off it because the plastic was starting to stick to the phone.
I don't know what happened.. the phone was fine when I woke up... after a few hours of light use i noticed it was really hot in my pocket... I took it out to find the battery was almost dead... and it was smoking hot. I shut it down and let it cool off. Now when I plug it in I got the "your phone is consuming more power than your charger can supply" message. Mind you this is the charger I always use and have never had this issue. Even after being plugged in for hours the phone will not charge over 20%... and again.. its getting super hot.
So this has to be a hardware problem right? I want to bring it into sprint but I'm afraid they will want to charge me 150 for a replacement. Should I go through HTC instead? If I do I am stock rooted... how can I get my phone back to normal so HTC can't tell?
Also I did not download any new apps or anything that would screw with my phone.

Yes the palm charger very well may be your issue. Perform a factory reset and switch to the regular/stock charger to see if it will help.

i got the nokia wireless charger for xmas, it worked fine for a couple days now whenever i put the phone on the charger it wont charge unless i press down hard on the phone, but as soon as i let go it will stop charging. at first i thought it was the charger so i took my phone to verizon and tried it on the charger they have on display and same thing happend. any one ever heard of this? or got any tips? only thing i can think is charging it on the charger has warped the back since it gets hot, but thats just my opinion.
Could be a case or cover on your phone?
If you got ur phone hot enough to warp the back, you'd know it, lol.
I had a phone that was intermittently working on the wireless charger, and VZW replaced it promptly, no more trouble.

That would be a royal pain....I'm bootloader unlocked.
Wireless charging is considerably slower than charging via a wall outlet and maybe slightly slower than charging from PC via USB.
The closer the phone is to the pad, the stronger the charging should be. Putting large cases on the phone may possibly cause it to charge slower.
If its charging slower than the phone drains the battery you should make sure the phone makes as close contact to the pad as possible (thin or no case at all) and make sure you don't have overclocked settings or tons of apps that constantly run in the background. You might also consider leaving the screen brightness on automatic so when you charge it at night and the screen comes on it doesn't use full brightness.
Try these things and report back if the situation doesn't improve.
been using wireless charging since i got my DNA on my energizer. as soon as i got my new case (trident) it stopped working THAT night, no prior problems. I thought maybe the case was too thick. tried with my old Verizon TPU which worked fine and without a case, and now it wont stay charging for more than 5-10 minutes MAX, and usually not for more than half a minute... if i push down as well, generally it starts to charge. I really don't want to get a new replacement. I don't see how this feature could break as it did! i would only imagine it would just happen again..
i am glad i am not the only person who has ran into problems with the nokia pads, i tried the pillow and just the plate and it would never charge longer than 30 - 45 seconds, weird thing is that my lg pad charges fine.
i am using the energizer pad. I can only hope its the pad and not the phone! the nokia pad looks nice. hell i guess ill stop in a Verizon store and see if it works there! cant believe it would only last a month. even more odd is that it stopped working when i got my case. i wonder if having the case caused it? i went to sleep with it charging and it seemed fine, woke up to 22% charge. second night with case off the phone was dead when i woke up. previously my phone would be 100% ready to go and cooled off by the AM!
And again I wake up to my phone not being charged even though the charging light was on....seriously?
Random too...some nights it works. Some it doesn't...

I had charging stop last night on me, Took the phone off, put it back on and charged to 100 after that.
Had this happen to 2 DNA's! I think it has to do with the phone getting too hot which results in a hardware failure on the device itself. I honestly gave up on wireless charging.
I had a low battery and had been using my phone at work. I thought I had about 10% left, but looked at my phone and it was off. No, problem I have a usb cord and plug into my work computer to charge it, but no luck. The charging display doesn't come on at all. So, I tried using the same cord with the ad adapter, but same thing. When I first tried it it looked like it was trying to load up, but froze up on the first screen that comes on. So, I pulled the battery, but I am getting absolutely nothing so far. It has been on the charger for about 30 minutes now. What gives? I think I am within my 14 day period at Best buy, maybe it's a battery or phone issue. Of all the days and times it had to be today when I have plans after work, but looks like I have a date with Best Buy instead now. any ideas?
Well that was disappointing. Thankfully it was replaced without a problem. I wonder if it was from the battery dying. I tested the old battery and it powered the new one. Not sure what happened or if that's a first. I hate I lost everything on it.

I remember on my NOTE 2 once my battery died while driving. I tried to plug in my car charger and power it back up but I guess the charger wasn't providing enough juice so I let it charge for like 20 minutes and the phone powered up.
Point is if the battery is totally dead it has to charge for a bit before you can power on the phone...even with a wall charger.
