Phone does not stay off when charging - Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I have the dreaded security warning issue from a botched unroot effort. I've been trying to fix it but my battery also needs charging. Only problem is that I can't seem to plug my phone in to a wall charger or a computer to charge without the phone turning on by itself. Does anyone know a way around this other than using someone else's phone to charge the battery then swapping?

I remember that being a problem with a certain version of Clockwork Mod Recovery. You will have to search to find a version that doesn't do that. Or use 4EXT.

This really isn't an option for me as all the phone will do is boot into hboot. I can choose power down from the menu, but then phone will simply boot right up again by itself.

Did you try to unroot with the leaked ICS radio combo?

I can't get to that point since I don't have enough battery to do anything.

Leave it plugged in to the wall. Take the battery right out of it.

I remember having to plug mine into the wall and let it keep boot looping until it finally stored enough power to boot normally. After that I switched to 4ext and haven't looked back.

cause it isn't actually a fix, either unroot or live with clockwork recovery coming on when the phone is powered down.
for now anyway.
Try to enable "fastboot". This is how I got it to work for me.

This only started to happen when I got my extended battery. Go figure.

[Question] Charge Mode?

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.

Pull the battery out and leave it out. Then plug it into A/C power directly into the wall. Keep the battery out. Also remove the memory card and leave it out. Then press vol down and power and see if it will take you to hboot.

Got it up and running again. Here is what I did.
Left it on the charger for 15 minutes, no orange LED.
Remove the battery, connected to wall charger and held down both power and vol down for 15 seconds, nothing again.
Put the battery back in.
Connected to my computer and ran "adb reboot", it killed the adb server, but did not reboot the device.
Removed battery and reran "adb reboot", errored out again, device not found.
Left battery out and plugged it back into the wall charger, after a second or two the orange LED light up for a second or two, then went out.
Tried power and vol down again, nothing again.
Put my battery back in, orange LED came back on for a couple of seconds and then went out for about 5 seconds, then came back on and is sitting on the charger now charging.

My phone is pretty ****ed when I try to flash the new ruu or anything ics. Can I just flash the ruu, then call them for a replacement for my brick? Flashing ruu doesn't void warranty right?

Flashing ROMs voids the warranty, even if its a leak of HTCs, because they can't guarantee you didn't do anything to harm the phone (such as overheating with custom kernel). Unless you got it OTA, its unapproved and is at your own risk.
And even though some people are calling this leak an "official OTA leak", its not official nor OTA.
I got my replacement and popped my new battery in my rezound that did not turn on it powered right up.

If you're going to run an RUU for a return, make sure it's the GB OTA one. Won't make a big difference if they boot it into bootloader and see the big ole "RELOCKED" though. Which most of them probably have no idea how to do anyway....

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.

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.

What were you doing when it happened?
Any kind of oc/UV?
To me it sounds like a thermal shutdown... Usually if you plug it in and try booting it will fix it but I'm not 100% certain what your case may be.
