Hi,
about a month ago, I managed to brick my XT910 - I was doing factory reset when I had couple of images installed (using safestrap).
The Battery went dead, as it entered a bootloop which I didn't notice.
I ordered a "Factory Cable", and now I'm able to use AP Fastboot recovery to flash a new image (4.1.2 image). As long as I'm connected with the factory cable to the computer, everything seems OK (flash succeed, I can go and setup the new system, connect to wifi...).
But - the battery never charges. As soon as I take off the factory cable, the phone dies. When I'm connecting regular charger, or regular USB cable to the computer, I get the red circle "M" logo, but it never progress - not booting and not showing the battery image.
Any idea how to solve this?
Thanks,
Ilan
Try keeping it plugged in for a few hours. It should charge.

Have tried, it was connected with both the factory cable and regular charger for few hours each times.
The battery picture (when the phone is off, but connected to power) doesn't even show up.
Any idea if the boot might have been defected? If so - any way to fix it?
I do able to go into fastboot & recovery boot options.
Thanks
Have you tried charging it through your usb port. Using the normal cable.
If nothing else works, Flash the stock ROM using RSDLite. It should fix any issue related to bad flash or anything corrupted.
Yes - tried charging with regular cable from the USB port - nothing comes on in the screen, just the led is glowing white.
I've tried to flash few stock images - 4.0.4 versions I can get flashed, and they run, but the battery icon shows a question mark (and in the system settings-> battery it says unknown).
2.3.6 images do not flash at all (I get failed in RDSlight on the first stage).
Any idea? Is there a boot only file I can flash another way.
Thanks

A few weeks ago this atrix started doing this auto reboot thing and you coudnt do anything with the phone. I try going into recovery to wipe and reflash any rom but none of them have been able to boot at all. It gets past the Moto logo but then gets stuck on a black screen.
I decided to grab a full sbf image and flash on RSD but apparently now it cant charge at all. It only works if I leave it plugged into an outlet but as soon as I pull it out it shuts off. When I try to charge it to a usb port it doesnt go. So now I cant even flash through RSD.
Anyone have any ideas or is this phone dead.

I got the same problem with my nokia n900. I had to disassemble and rework the solder connections of my usb port.

Ugh what an annoying phone. Ive had problems with this one since day one. All I wanted was it to get it working so I could use it when I travel abroad next year.
i was previously using this rom, [ROM][MIUI][21/10] cMIUI 2.10.19 [4.1.2][AOSP][OTA][Aroma][Multi][Super Stable] and tried to flash it back to the stock rom (DXLPB).
i used odin to flash it back and apparently the operation failed and i got into the screen where it shows the "firmware upgrade had encountered an issue...." message.
when i tried flashing the rom again the operation always fail because the usb keeps disconnecting every 20 seconds and connecting again.
so i tried flashing the rooting file ( the one that i used to flash in odin in order for it to root ) and this time my phone went into recovery mode.
i cleared the cache and wipe the phone data and rebooted it.
apparently the phone doesnt go into any screen anymore other then the empty battery icon when i plug it into the com. if i unplug it, the phone will be stuck in the same screen until i take out the battery.
usb is not detected, odin not detected also.
i cant switch it to download or recovery mode either.
i tried using the heimdel package but it wouldnt work because the phone cant be detected either
is there anyway to save my phone??
please help! thanks in advance.
i tried getting it into download mode and the screen shows "LOW BATTERY!! CAN'T DOWNLOAD!" screen. unfortunately, i cant seems to charge my phone also. plug into the pc and charger for hours, doesnt seem to charge. its not the cable's fault. i got many cables, tried all of them. any help??
Try another battery (best charged). If you have an old backup use it.
Okay so awhile back I rooted my XT912 and had safestrap 3.11 installed. I do not recall if I had clockwork mod or not.I had Eclipse ICS installed and was happy with it. At one point I was once again meddling where I shouldn't and wiped my stock rom slot via safestrap. I just booted into the Eclipse on rom slot 1 and forgot about it. I decided to try a cyanogen rom and had it downloaded to my external sd. I went into safestrap and began deleting rom slot 1. Everything was fine until, MY BATTERY DIED... After some more work I had eventually ended up being able to use recovery and flash the internal drive so I could use RSD to boot into a stock bootloader. I keep getting errors there. I do have a backup on my computer. I just really don't know where to go from here as I cant even access safestrap anymore. Please help. I have no idea where to go from here and couldn't find anyone with the same issue and believe me I have spent the better part of two days looking.

Remember to have a full battery though, or you might hard-brick,
how do i charge? when its plugged in via usb it has a white led and with the wall charger, it stays on the dual core screen for a while or just goes black
Go into fastboot mode does it say? Battery OK? If it does go on and try the Utility.
AP Fastboot Flash Mode (S)
0A.74
eMMC Info: Size 16G
To return to normal mode- first press power key to power down
Device is LOCKED. Status Code: 0
Battery Low
Cannot Program
(USB)
Transfer Mode:
USB Connected
(WHEN PLUGED INTO WALL)
Connect USB
Data Cable
You need a factory programming cable(eBay... Hong Kong clone works fine) or a USB factory adapter(team blackhat, Google them). Your phone is bricked and no matter what you do you won't be able to charge it. Once you get the cable or adapter then you'll be able to connect you phone to the computer with it and boot into fastboot mode it will say battery is fine to program because the cable/adapter powers the phone, doesn't charge it. All you have to do from there is use rsd lite and flash the fast boot files. Your phone will be back to stock and you can re-root and install safestrap again.
Good luck
Krooked All Day...
Try to get into the boot loader and select BP Tools and plug in the charger into the wall and see if it charges.

I'm havin problems with offline charging after i installed cm11. I've tried change kernel and change rom (i'm using PA rom now) and i'm still with the same problem.
When i plug the charger on my phone while turned off, it shows a battery icon with a question mark on it and i think it's not charging. Is this a general problem or did i make something wrong?
Try keeping it plugged in. See if it charges or not.
Also,did you change your bootlogo?
I didn't change my bootlogo. it boots motorola bootloader and then shows the battery icon with the question mark. I left my phone charging this way for a couple of hours and tried to turn it on. my phone booted with 0% battery and then shutted down, so definitely it is not charging. other thing I notice is that when my phone enter this buggy offline charging mode, I have to press power button + volume down to reboot my phone, it kind of get stuck in this mode when my phone enter it
Try using a different charger.
It doesn't seem to be a common issue.
Can you power up the phone whilst charger connected.?
I've tried two different chargers, one of my Moto X and the original one. If I want to charge the phone I need to turn it on first and then plug the charger. I can't turn it on with the charger on cuz it is stuck on that screen with the battery icon
I'm starting to think I've done something wrong. I did the following to get where I am right now:
I was on stock firmware, so I rooted the phone and installed the newest version of SS. Then I downloaded cm11 and gapps and copied to the phone. I entered the SS and wiped everything. After that I installed cm11 and gapps.
When I discovered that issue I've tried install JBX kernel to fix it and nothing. then I wiped everything again and installed PA rom + gapps and still that issue. Did I do something wrong?
No, you didn't do anything wrong.
Since its persistent across both ROMS, its not a ROM issue either.
In my opinion, its most probably a problem with port or the board. The port doesn't deliver enough power.
You can try flashing the stock ROM back, it might repair in case something s/w related is corrupted. If it doesn't work after that, then its a h/w glitch for sure.
just in case, if I install stock rom and the problem goes away, what might be causing this problem?
I can't re-flash stock rom because I can't charge my phone and I can't boot into the rom or recovery. I don't think fastboot charges my phone. I just realized that bootloader is locked. Maybe this is the problem, isn't it?
it isn't a h/w glitch because before cm11 it was OK to charge offline
You'll need a factory cable to flash in case your phone has insufficient power.
Look for it, there's a guide about making one in the general section I suppose.
No need, I've managed to charge the phone through USB on my pc. When I plug the charger on my phone, that glitch happens, but when I plug the USB on my pc, the phone lights up a white led and apparently it charges the phone (slower, but charges). That's really weird. I really want to know what is happening to my phone
The phone has successfully been flashed with a few different firmwares since the bootloop started occurring. the phone will only power on when the cable is plugged in but it will show the samsung screen and then start the "Installing system update" screen and then instantly go to "No command" and then boot back to the samsung screen to repeat the process. download mode is accessible but i cant get into recovery mode to reset the cache or perform a factory wipe.
The cable is fine and the usb port on the phone let me flash software via odin so i don't understand why it only powers on with a cable plugged in.
Could this be a battery issue? i'm very new to this website and the software end of phone repair stuff so any help is greatly appreciated!
i'm currently running 7.0 firmware G890AUCS7DRF2 from boxwares but the bootloop has been occurring since before i even tried to flash anything.
Also, all of my drivers seem to be up to date so i don't think that's posing any issues.
Thanks so much in advance!
Hi , try to clean the charging port of your phone with 100% alcohol and with clean toothbrush also you can use needle to clean the usb port contact.
Another what you can do is to put your phone into the charger for abot 30 minutes and see if your phone is become to hot on the back side what can be sign of bad charging port or probably dead battery .
