So,
not the best one for my first post.
I really need your help.
I have no information about the phone.
I got it and i've been told i could try anything to bring it back to life.
PROBLEM:
You can plug into the wallcharger. WHITE LED. no reaction. white led turn out after some time. (think it's charged)
Plug into your PC. The same thing as with the wall-charger.
Plugged into a Car-Charger. Same Reaction.
Recovery doenst work. Tried out with all cmbinations of the power butten and the volumerocker.
Hope there's someone out who can help with my problem.
Did it get wet? If so it's a goner. Same thing happened to my wife's phone after a swim.

Well.
That's the problem. I even cannot provide any information of what happened to this device. I#ll get in contact with the owner at the weekend.
Try to charge 8 hours with motorola (! it's important) charger. if it doesn't help then use motorola factoy cable.

I need help with this NOW if anyone can. I figured I'd go ahead and make a thread for it so it would get seen. I was trying to update to 2.1 and something went wrong. Long story short the battery drained and now even when it's plugged into the wall all it does is flash its little red light. If I can get it to charge I think I can get things working again but as it stands I don't even know if it is charging. If I have it plugged into the wall and remove the battery the led turns green. If I put the batt back in afterwards it will go off after a bit and eventually "turn on" (in this case that just means that the screen comes on but is completely black but backlit) but there is no led indication at all so i don't know if it's charging or what. It doesn't seem to be. I really need help asap. Thanks in advance.
Silly question perhaps.. have you tried putting it into flash mode for SEUS (phone off hold back key, plug in USB cable)...?? does it register the phone?
Open pc companion hold back button and insert the micro Ian until it says stop it should then tell you your software is already the latest but if there's a problem you can use the repair option. Hth

Tried it just now, nothing.
My suggestion would be to plug it in for a few hours then try again. Or take battery out completely and try the back button without a battery. Might work. Might not. Sorry. Doubt the phone is bricked tho.

I tried without the battery and it didn't work. I'll leave it plugged up for a while but if it doesn't charge i don't know what i'm going to do.

Just out of interest how long have you left it on the charge for? Because the red light flashes while charging until 10% and I remember once when my battery fully drained it did that for a few minutes until phone turned on again. Leave it for a while if you haven't done so.
The reason I ask is, incase you saw red light flashing and took it off charge straight away thinking its faulty? Like I said it sometimes takes a while to turn on fully when battery has died.
Edit: I know this is unhelpful, but that's why when you update via SEUS it says to ensure battery has 50%

I got he same problem 3 weeks ago. i could not get the phone to boot anymore even after trying all the unbrick method available here. so i sent it to sony ericsson service and they changed the motherboard.
okay, been charging for a while now and still have the red light. Pretty confident it isn't charging.
Plz try another usb cablr. I know about 20 people whoms usb cable accidently died and the phones cannot charge anymore ....

But the phone won't even boot. Will the battery charge while it's off? or when it's on a black screen? I know 2.1 lets it charge when it's off now, but the OP said the update screwed up.
Other suggestions that may take some time:
1. Find someone else who has an X10 and charge it in their phone.
2. Bring it to your phone provider and ask them to charge it.
3. Bring it to your phone provider and exchange the battery (temporarily?).
4. Buy an external wall charger (one that lets you charge the battery directly, not in the phone).
I ended up bypassing the phone and charging the battery directly via a macgyvered usb cable. Don't ask. lol. But I got it charged enough to use the se update tool and restore it back to the original rom. I'll try the update to 2.1 later after I get this thing charged all the way up. Thanks guys.
Background: bought a Razr for cheap off Fleebay knowing it was soft bricked and the battery was dead. I also bought a factory cable so I could get into fastboot and flash the files. Everything worked great with the RSD lite method, except that my batter is so completely dead the phone turns off as soon as I unplug the factory cable (YES I KNOW I CAN'T CHARGE WITH IT) But, when I plug in a regular cable to the computer all I get is the white light, and when I plug in a wall charger I get the battery but the charge meter goes from 0% to 100% in a few seconds. After leaving it to charge while I went to work I came home to find it still dead.
Any help would be GREATLY appreciated.
I've read about that problem somewhere on here. I want to say the guy used a car charger??? Wouldn't hurt to try. Good luck.

Thanks I read the same thing and tried a generic charger. My moto one is MIA. I'm trying a few things without the battery hooked up to see if it is the battery that's borked.. I SERIOUSLY hope not
hi, today my photon freezes when I'm calling my friend
i tried to press the power button to turn if off but it won't shut down
i press any other button and still there's no response from the phone.
so in desperation i pulled out the battery
and the phone is dead.
i tried to install the battery again but the phone won't turn on at all
i tried to "rest" for a day but still the phone won't turn on
i've tried connecting it to wall charger but still , dead.
the battery is full cause i've tried it on my friend's photon.
so the battery is not the issue.
can anybody give me any solution ?
i can't send the phone back to sprint cause i lived overseas.
i really need help here
any suggestions are welcomed, thx.
When you plug it in to AC does it show any sign of life?

A few more details would help us help you.
It's (should be) common knowledge that you can help fix something when you don't know what's under the hood.
Give us some info. Are you stock, rooted custom rom kernel etc.
Does anything occur on your phone at any time? Lights or a vibrate when charging? Do you get to the Motorola screen? If so Are you familiar with rsd and fast boot?
To get help around here we need to see a thorough post that explains all of the details. I assure you someone will attempt to come to your aid

Okay here's the thing:
the photon is unlocked and using 197 SBF
rooted and unlocked (cause i install the beat audio mod)
prior to this , nothing is wrong
the phone works normally
and suddenly it hangs / freezes when i called my friend with it
so out in desperation i took off the battery
and it never turn on since
totally dead
not even motorola logo on the screen
the battery is 90% cause i tried my battery on my friend's photon and it shows 90% charge
so i don't think this is the battery problem
i tried connect it to the wall charger, nothing happened not even LED turn on
i tried connecting to my laptop usb port and the white led come out but still it won't turn on
with and without battery, when i connect it to my laptop the white led comes out.
Try to pull the battery more times, I know that this issue could be from pudding sbf on some Photons.
One man from here had the similar problem, flashed derpunlock.sbf, booted and after some minutes it died, he had to pull the battery, wait a few minutes and again. After full sbf flashing, it was fine.

i've leave the battery out of the phone for more than 24 hour but still it won't turn on.
the weird things is that it was working fine for many months prior to this.
and i never do anything on the phone .
i mean i didn't flash or upgrade or anything.
This sounds like hardware issue...
Sent from my MB855 using xda app-developers app
if it is a hardware issues

though the led is white when connected to the computer with or without battery in it.

Is it recognized by rsd lite with the white led? Most probably not. Just asking.
AH! I'm having the same issue! No answers?
NOOOOOO!
Ok so i usually charge it with a wall charger and a car charger if im not home. I was in a call and i had hung up and after that i disconnected it from the car charger. It then turned off all the way. I connected it ti wall charger and still nothing. Ive tried soft reset. If i connect to laptop it gets solid white LED. I really wanna use it D: HELP
Please someone help me!!
Send it to RMA,You are screwed for GOOD!
Can someone help me that doesnt say just send it in? Im not giving up.
The same thing happened to me today while my RAZR was connected via USB to the computer. At this time the battery was fully charged.
Suddenly, the device has turned off. Only the white LED was blinking.
For me, it helped to connect the Razr to the power supply. After 2-3 minutes the charging icon appeared and I was able to turn on the phone again. Apparently something has drained the battery.

Oh, I see. You'll need a factory cable to flash a rom.

The name sounds odd, 'factory cable', but it's just a sligtly modified regular micro usb and will fix your razr.

Okay i first want to say. THE BUTTONS DO NOT HELP. I hope you saw that and thats all I am ever seeing in every forum about this out there. My phone will not turn on. It died completely as I thought I had 10% left and it would last 30 seconds but it didn't. I plugged it in and it started charging and when it got to 30% i tried to turn it on and nothing happened. Let it charge more and nothing. Plugged it into the computer and pressed the buttons and all that came up was OMAP4430 which from what i read is something that looks for the bootloader. I have done alot as in taking it apart changing the battery thinking maybe its shot, tried also to directly charge the battery, all the buttons do nothing, taking out the cards and charging and pressing the buttons doesn't help.
I was thinking that the something happened to the bootloader... From what i read at least. Is it possible to boot the phone with the bootloader on the sd card?

If you use the USB cable (the original Motorola cable) can you see the phone under devices on your PC? If so, then you can probably use RSD lite or Matt's Droid RAZR Utility to reflash back to the stock ROM (do a Google search; if you have trouble finding the info let me know and I will see if I can find the links for you).

Have you tried reinstalling the Motorola drivers on your PC? I think you can download them from Motorola. I really don't know if that will work, but it is one thing I would try if I was in your situation.
