Hello everyone!
My Atrix4G seems to be in some kind of bootloop, and I have no idea what's causing it. I'm suspecting it is my battery, because when android boots up it says my battery is charged. But then I pulled the battery, and turned on my phone with the charger plugged in, without the battery. Then it tells me I have no battery inserted, so I insert my battery, and it says it's on 5%. I left my phone like that, to charge it. It went up to 70% then stopped. Turned on my phone, android boots up, says my battery is charged, then reboots again. I pull the battery, turn on my phone with charger plugged in, without battery, and when it asked for battery I insert it and says 5% again. I tried the Battery Calibration app, but didnt make any difference. Any ideas?!

Hello there. I recently purchased the Seido 1400mAh battery and it came in today. I turned off my phone and popped in the new battery and turned it back on. From what I read about battery calibrating, I let the phone die and then plugged it in to charge. I wanted to check on it after charging for a few hours, only to find that it won't turn on. The red light kind of flashes when I push the power button. If I put my old battery back in it turns on just fine.
Any idea?
So I let it "charge" over night and still had the same issue. I was able to get into Android today but after a few minutes it just shut off. The battery has never gone above 0%.
Could this be a defective battery? The reason I bought a new battery is because the stock one is bulging and doesn't hold a charge, but it charges just fine in the phone.

The batt is defiantly defective and needs to be replaced if possible
I just got my replacement battery in the mail and it isn't charging either. This just doesn't make sense. It shouldn't be my phone because the stock battery charges just fine...
I will try to explain my problem clearly and in a concise manner.
My battery started giving problem since a few days back.That time I had ICS in my phone.
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.
If i turn it on,it shows battery to be 0 or 1%.Then i used to set it on charging,and it used to work normally and battery starts getting charged from 1%.
On the other hand,if instead of turning up the phone and charging again,when i used to plug the charger in without turning on phone, my phone shows the correct battery percentage.And it starts charging normally.
To summarise-
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.If my phone gets off on 70% automatically,and if i plug the charger keeping the mobile off,it starts charging from 70%.But if I turn on the mobile and plug the charger,it starts charging from 0%
So this thing worked for a few days.After that my phone started turning off quite frequently.And I had to plug the charger everytime it turns off so as to turn it on again.
A couple of days back,I flashed cyanogenmod JB and siyah kernel.Since then it has been worse.
Now phone doesnt even last a minute even after full charging.It just shuts down as soon as I turn it on.I tried clearing battery stats.
I am unable to use my phone,its next to a dead phone.Please help !
What should I do to save my phone?
maybe its time to replace battery...

Are you sure battery needs to be replaced?
One more thing, after flashing JB, the battery percentage doesnt fluctuate as before.
It gets off at say 70%, and then it doesnt matter if i charge it keeping phone on or off,the charging starts at 70%.
Its just that the phone gets off for no reason as soon as it is turned on.
There is an app on market called My Battery Status, you can check your battery health with it.

Replace the battery
Hi,
My Moto Photon won't charge anymore via the USB port. The green light doesn't go on. But this isn't because the battery was deeply discharged. I tried to do my due diligence and search the problem.
This morning, my battery was down to 5%. I charged it at work, and it got up to 30%, but the phone was really really hot. There didn't seem to be any weird apps running or anything.
Anyways, I left it on and off, it left work at 20% charge. Then when I got home, it was down to 10%. But it wouldn't charge. The green light doesn't go one when I plug in the AC adapter and USB cable. It also wouldn't charge via the computer. While on, the computer didn't recognize the device.
I took the battery out. Blew on it. Restarted the phone. Still no dice. The battery indicator didn't indicate that it was charging either.
Now, the battery is pretty much dead. Won't boot up anymore.
Is this a battery issue or a phone issue? If I buy a new battery, would it solve the problem?
Thanks!
Try getting a battery replacement?

Hi All,
Please help me with my battery problem.
I was playing some game, the phone had around 30% battery. Suddenly it went off. Then I tried turning it on. It showed 0% charging. I left it for sometime, it still showed 0% charging, and since then its showing the same. It shows 0% charging when I use an external charger to charge it, as soon as I unplug it, it goes off.
My findings :
I trired a few on and off tricks, I cant calibrate coz I can't charge phone to 100%. Then I left the phone on charging for a few hours, it did charge, and somehow the battery showed 100% charged, but when I unplugged the charger, the phone shutdown quickly.
The battery is in good condition, I have used a few apps to check that. The battery is still charged, but the phone doesnt know about it, and reads it differently, phone always finds battery to be 0%. The battery stats show "0 seconds on battery",so I guess the phone isn't using battery at all. I tried hard resetting as well. I believe its a software problem not a hardware problem.
Please help me, I cant get extra battery as of now as I am not at my place, I will be out for 2 more weeks atleast. Neither can I submit my phone for repairing until I am back at my place. Why is the phone not using the battery that is still there? Can anyone help please?
Replace battery, and if that doesn't fix the problem replace USB board/port.
Replace battery with a reputable battery. It will fix the issue.
Hi,
I can't use my phone without plugging it into a charger and socket and when I remove my phone from charging, it turns off itself and I can't open anymore so I decided to buy new battery(im not sure if this is original) since I thought it just a battery problem and now I can use my phone even if it is not plugged into a charger but the problem now is my phone shows more battery % but after several minutes, it turns off and it shows that the battery is at 0% so meaning it drops to 0%.
