So I rooted and installed CWM, and now when I try to charge my phone WHILE it is off, the charging light wont come on, which means is not charging while off at all. Has this happened to anyone else? When the phone is on, it charges just fine.
EDIT: Just tried it with FastBoot on, and now it charges when powered off. So to anyone having the issue, try this.
EDIT 2: It appears this only happens when on CWM recovery. TWRP does not exhibit this problem.
I've noticed the same on my end.
Try a different recovery.
Locked & Loaded
same
Same result here, i woke up to a dead phone this morning.
Happen to me too with different recovery.

Out of curiosity, were your phones _off_, or in the hibernation state that is used for Fast Boot?

Mine was in the "hibernation" state, but before I had root, I could charge the phone while off with either FastBoot off or on. Anyway, I already changed recoveries to TeamWin's, and Im in the process of a Nandroid backup, so as soon as its done, I will try to charge with both FB on and off to see what happens, and I will post results. BTW, I've seen that this has happened to quite a few more people, so it might be a widespread problem that not a lot of people know because most of us dont ever turn off the phone to charge it.
I dunno.. havent tried that but why do u turn your phone off to charge it anyways lol

Well, if you run your battery until the phone turns off, it'd be great to be able to charge it in your own phone instead of an external charger or non-rooted/s-on phone.

For one, the phone charges faster this way because its not using any power at all.
I have fastboot turned off in the menu and mine charges fine when I turn it off. I'm using Teamwin Recovery

I can also confirm this, so it appears to be a bug related to CWM recovery, can any of the guys that still have that recovery and is experiencing this problem try to charge with FB off while the phone is off and confirm if it works or not?

Same here. I did notice however, the light would not turn green while off... It was on the charger for 7+ hours. Weird. I'm using TWPR.
It's definitely the cwm-4.0.1.4-shooter.img recovery. I just tested with both twrp and cwm. twrp allows the phone to charge with fastboot off and phone off.
Fastboot on isn't really a 'fix' because the phone never goes off completely from what I understand. I just want to know I can charge a dead battery in my phone if I ever needed to.

This.
This might be a serious problem to anyone whos using this recovery and their phone dies before they can get to an A/C outlet (for example, on a car w/o a car charger, etc). I will send the developers a quick note for them to check this out.
Good work on figuring this out... Im sure we will see more folks wondering wtf is goin on with their batteries

I can confirm this. Using CWM the phone does not charge when powered off. Whats the best way to remove CWM and install TWR?
when you turn off the phone and plug in the charger, the red light does go off in a few seconds, but my phone was fully charged overnight (without the red light on)
Mine charged to 100% this morning. I stuck with CWM, I also flashed OMJ deodexed rom before I went to bed. I plugged it in when the phone was on and awake.

I also wondered if it was just that the led wasn't on, but was really charging. I tried having the phone off with cwm, plugged in charger, led came on/went off, and left it for 30 minutes. It did not charge my battery at all.

Yeah, the problem does not happen if the phone is on and charging.
My FLYER has revolutionary installed. Trying installing an OTA got stuck on the white screen.
When I try to flash to stock GB - it complained battery is less than 30%.
I have put in the wall charger over night still complained less 30%.
I can boot into Revolutionary - either into HBOOT or FASTBOOT - even tried "Power Down"...but this FLY does not seem to be charging.
Can someone provide some guidance as what is the right way to charge this? And How long does it usually take to fully charge?
Thanks in advance!
Try holding up vol and power for 30 secs. never had that issue, but should charge in hour or so if off.

I got this problem. My battery gone on 0% and phone turns off normally.
After that no on.
When connected on charger it come NOKIA logo with vibrate and come windows phone logo and than shut down and repeat.
I tried all solutions over net and not helped me.
What to do?
please anyone? I dont have warranty any more....
That depends... What was the last thing you did on your phone?
Did you try unlocking the bootloader? If so, did you format the disk when prompted? Never, is anyone supposed to format it. If you chose 'Cancel' then theres hope.
I would suggest trying NSS & unlock it...

Leave it on the charger for several hours. If the battery is completely empty it can take quite a while until it is able to be restarted.
8 hours was on charger and nothing.
When connect to charger bootlop is whole time.

I had a similar problem after I updated my phone, the battery just wouldn't charge up. I was able to flash the older firmware back on to the phone and it would charge the battery but as soon as I put ANY of the tango firmware's on the phone the battery would stop charging.

When you plug in the charger you're phone is turning on but it keeps looping through the boot sequence as the screen eats up more power than it get's. Try using a wall charger to charge your phone, once the screen come on turn it off. You should be able to put enough power about 2% which would be enough to try your phone on long enough to flash it. First try to see if you can get the phone to boot up from a wall charger.
When is wall charger it come to windows logo and turn off.

Can you turn the screen off before it gets to the Windows logo?

Unfortunatly if you can't get the phone to boot up at all then you won't be able to flash on the firmware
The only solution you have is to send it back to Nokia. I dropped my phone in and was given a new phone which now works perfectly
I dont have warranty soo I gave to local service shop....
They said some problem with battery and will tell em tomorow how much will cost.
Well my Moto E seems to have been unstable recently with a mega unstable cyanogen up date and has had booting issues and constantly turned on and off and now only charges and doesn't turn on. Yes i have attempted to g into recovery. Also if this helped when i attempted charging it once the LED light stayed on but didnt appear to charge so a changed it to another and it charged up with a battery icon so this is really confusing me. Help

Charge it overnight, and then remove the phone, and try booting into fastboot, (volume buttons and power button for 30 seconds)
and then go to recovery

Means you're not able to get into fastboot mode??
I reflashed to stock rom. After that (succesful boot), it suggest to update to a newer Firmware. I agreed. Then it doesn't awake anymore.
Even long press to power there is no sign of life.
If I plug the power, the white LED goes on for a certain time. I guess it is until it is fully charged.
After this it starts blinking: long, short, long, short .. a few times, than it stops
After pressing the keys, blinking starts again - with no stop until unplugging USB.
Is there any hope to recover it. This time I have not much hope ....
In my moto E, when I connect to charger, the white light blinks for 1 sec, then goes off. No long press, anything is working

1. Press and hold power button and connect the charger
If white screen appears then go for next step
2. Unplug the charger once and again connect your charger without pressing any button
3. Let your mobile get charged
4. Then flash stock/custom ROM (search in XDA thread)
NOTE : Don't use stock charger(default charger comes with your mobile kit)
USE DIFFERENT CHARGER
Hope it helps you:good:

Used a Samsung Charger, pressed power and plugged in. Nothing happened first. After a while (i guess I released the button) the white LED starts blinking again. And it still blinks.
I haven't seen anything on screen since this update happened ...
Seems to be really screwed.

No, Power + Volume down (also tried Volume up) - nothing helped.
The only sign of life is the white LED that seems to indicate charging (if it is on/not blinking).
The second is this strange blinking, I can start with Power + Volume down (but only if USB cable is plugged).
But a "adb usb" reports "no device/emulators found"

From my experience the White LED goes on (not flashing) if it charges.
It goes off after fully charged. I keep it on charger for many hours.
The LED flashing only happens If I try to go into fastboot while USB is plugged.

You should try to go into fastboot when the phone is fully charged ,rather than when it is being charged ,I have seen it that behaves weirdly when trying to enter into fastboot with the charger being plugged in .

A question, which stock ROM version did u flash 4.4.4 or 4.4.2 ?
I was on Lineage, flashed back to stock. Probably to 4.4.2. Than it wants to update to newer stock release, guess 4.4.4 but not sure. Do you think this matters?

See other threads, u did a mistake by flashing 4.4.2 . You should have flashed 4.4.4 instead. Accepting the OTA, you have hard-bricked your device. It can't be restored as of now. Buy a new device

But as far as I remember OTG doesn't work on Moto E.

Will verify, no OTG support on stock.
xt830c variant but i doubt that will make any difference lol.
Your device is hard bricked now same as mine. I did the same thing 1 year ago.
I haven't found any solutions yet.

Let's wait if these guys find some solution.
Btw if anyone have a working Moto E please update the image file on drive and share the link over there.
That will a great help.
Thanks!!
