[Q] Need Atrix HD or Droid Razr maxx battery - Motorola Atrix HD

Hi,
I need droid razr maxx or atrix HD's battery for my Atrix HD.
My Atrix HD's battery died completely and now it not charging at all.
I checked with a electronics expert and he suggested to replace the battery.
If you have a spare battery from bricked phone then please share with me.
Or if possible if you can share it for few days on account of buying it if damaged.
Earlier tryouts,
My Atrix HD, doesn't boot at all on battery. But when connected to wall charger it shows green led then red Moto logo and then instead of showing the charging logo it reboots directly. And again goed to green led, red moto logo. This keeps happening and doesn't charge the battery at all.
Check with meters, that the battery doesn't contain any charge.
I initially though its soft bricked, so with help of other forums and fastboot menu, I reflashed all stock images. But still it not charging and going in boot loop.
Please help me if you have a spare battery.

Do the factory cable mod and charge it directly. You'll know then

I checked the battery with meter for voltage. And it shows no voltage at all. Earlier it used to, but now no voltage at all.
Will it still charge such completely dead battery.
I will give it a try to create factory cable and try charging it.

A battery can be completely discharged. I'd try charging it with that cable and find out.

At 0V the battery is definitely damaged. Typically 0% to 100% SOC corresponds to certain open circuit voltages (OCV) like 2.5V and 3.7V (I picked arbitrary numbers, they vary based on chemistry).

Kinda both lol
both atrix hd is more economical & have same specs & the razor hd maxx battery is a beast i would get atrix hd with razr hd battery

Perhaps you can find a extra charger (the one that you plug your battery directly in it) and try to charge the battery before putting it into the phone. Sometimes the battery shows a 'fake' death if you don't charge in for a long time.
If it can't help, go to ebay, you will find a lot of battery there.

The battery isn't removal? How are you going to stick it in a charger?

Remove the battery first, there are like tons of video shows how to disemble the phone on youtube.

Once again it's not a regular battery man. You can't just put it in a charger.

Batteries don't just die-care and maintenance
A. Try charging the phone for 2-3 hours
B. Buy a new battery

Correct-once opened you'll see that there are two circular terminals to connect the tiny battery leads to-replacing battery is easy. With the EB40 battery you will have to cut the frame...

This is correct. Cut-off voltages vary for the type of battery being used such as NiMH, Alkaline, Li-Po, Li-ion etc
And the battery itself would rarely go to a 0V state. That is because the phone automatically powers off at a point where the battery would still appear to have stored voltage, but below powering threshold.

Make sure you are using a calibrated multimeter and measure the voltage again. Does the battery appear swollen?
Also (im not sure on this), the phone should power on regardless of the battery state when connected to AC power. There is always a surplus power from wall socket which is why we can play graphic intensive games when connected to the socket and still have the battery charge up.
Seeing the state of your phone as youve mentioned, i'd suggest making sure its booting properly first. otherwise the charging circuitry might not be working. try something mundane first such as using a different micro usb charger.
cell phone batteries rarely die before youve upgraded the phone itself

Droid 4 Won't Charge, Stuck at 0%

I bought a Droid 4 off of fleabay in the hopes of resuscitating it. The phone is in perfect condition and no water damage, but when I plug it in, the charging splash screen comes up and stays at 0%. I have made sure to use a motorola charger and cable, supplying the proper amperage and left it plugged in for 8 hours in case of deep discharge. The only thing I can get into from the power&volume-+ menu is fastboot, but it says the battery is too low to do anything.
Do the Motorola factory cables work to power the Droid 4 in fastboot? Everything I have read says they don't work for the Droid 4. Does anyone have any other suggestions to bring this thing back to life? I'm wondering if the battery is just defective.
I fixed it! I couldn't find any Google results for this particular problem so hopefully this helps someone. If your Motorola Droid 4 is not charging and stuck on the battery icon with zero percent displayed, a Motorola "factory" cable will likely fix it, if the battery isn't dead. I used this thread to make a factory cable: http://www.droidforums.net/forum/droid-labs/146492-how-why-make-your-own-motorola-factory-cable.html
As soon as I plugged my frankenstein cable into my PC, the phone booted right up. I scored a Droid 4 in perfect condition for $50 on fleabay, and now it works! yay
Good job, that's awesome!

[Q] When phone is off charging battery has question mark

I've had this phone for about two weeks now (I bought it used). When I got the phone the battery lasted pretty much all day for about 4-5 days. Then I pretty much started having charging issues. When the phone would fully die it would lock up. Sometimes when the phone had 80% battery it would lock up and stay that way for about 30-60 seconds. It would then reboot possibly lock up on boot for another 30-60 seconds, then if it did come on the battery would have an explanation mark telling you it needed to be charged. Now sometimes when you go to charge the phone it would turn on but have a question mark inside of the battery instead of where the colors are while it's charging and off.
I tried to purchase a battery locally and replace it. This battery does the same thing. The phone will boot for a bit, charge, then shut off. When I go into fastboot mode it says 'battery low'. When I got the phone and started having problems it was still stock everything, no root. Now I am running Youngunn's HoloBlur performance edition and the battery I tried to replace it with is an EB40.
The questions I really have are this.
1- When a battery is bad does it cause the '?' mark
2- Does the EB40 have to be calibrated some how, or does the ROM just pretty much know what's up
I don't really want to drop another $50 into a battery if that doesn't the issue. However in my past experience and knowledge of electronics and phones it seems to be the battery.
Thanks in advance!

I can't really get that far into the phone. After I get the phone booted it says low batt then goes through the power down process
Update: After reading a few threads on this site and others I've heard them all talking about using the OEM charger. I was using the USB brick I use for my Samsung tablet 5v 2a. I've just found a moto charger at my house which is 5v 550ma and the charging meter is now going up.
Thank you for searching guy.

You're welcome man!
I took the battery that I purchased back and ordered a new one off Amazon. I put my old battery back in the phone and left it alone. After the phone charged for two hours it said it was at 25%. I booted the phone up got about five mins of use out of it and it locked again and wouldn't turn back on. When the phone isnt on and just charging, does it use the ROM to display the battery charging meter?
Here's another update.. I got the new battery in and put it in the phone. I tried to power it up just to see if it had a charge and it displayed the unlocked bootloader logo and shut back off. I then tried to plug it into, still nothing. I eventually got the green light on the top to show up. At first it was blinking, then it went solid with a very small blink. After that, still nothing.
I have tried using a 5v 500ma, 5v 1a, and 5v 2a charger and still nothing. Does anyone have any ideas?

I went to ATT and tried to get the OEM charger from them but they said they didn't have one. They were trying to use a 5v 1a usb cord with a block on the end. The only actual Motorola charger I have is what I got when I had my Atrix 4G. It's a 5v 500ma...

I have never used the original Moto USB charger. I usually use anything that was convenient and that includes my, laptop, desktop, HTC, LG, and Samsung USB chargers.
Same here. With any of my devices for that matter. Usually the phone can dumb it down or just not charge.

And sometimes that's fine but If it won't charge first thing to try is the factory charger to rule that out.
Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
After going up to the ATT store and getting them to try multiple adapters it still isn't working. I have noticed that when you plug it into the computer it recognizes the phone.. To what extent I have no idea (since I only plugged it in for a minute at the store). There are also times when you plug it in and the green light will be flashing, and other times the light will be solid.
Like I said this is straight puzzling. The phone worked fine for a few days with no issues. It seems like it got wet but there's no way it could have.

This is a hoax. Battery calibration is not real (Words from a google/android employee). All these apps do is maybe clean up the battery statistics so android builds new ones (which it does by itself in the long run anyways). This process has nothing to do with the actual battery/hardware.
That's all they're meant to do. Wipe the stats so it will get a correct reading.
Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
Did you solved it?
I had the same issue ..couldnt fine a workaround uptill now
*facepalm
Solution:
1.Take out your battery.
2.See those contacts between the terminals? Yes, they're the battery sensors. If they're not in contact with the base plates on the phone board, do something about it. I don't know what, you decide.
3.get some naked wire and create your own screw washers, for the terminals. Screw them under the screw, between the battery board and base screw holes.
4.Tighten properly.
Done.
Now, try again till the charger accepts that your battery is existent.
You are welcome.

[Q] New battery for xt894 or not?

hello,
i'm thinking to change the battery of my xt894 (not enough power for me), and i saw this battery http://m.ebay.it/itm/121306473286?nav=SEARCH what do you think about? could this one gave me problem on phone?
I have it... and it last longer ... like a 15 - 20% than the original.
I ordered mine too! How did you install it? Drain first the original battery? And the install? Or does Android reset the statts for the battery by itself?

I bought used Droid 4 last month. Battery seems to be in good state (2-2,5 days of light use), but every time it gets to ~40% it immediately drops to 20% (within few seconds). Is there a way to delete battery stats so it can detect percentage correctly? I tried to discharge it completely and recharge again but it didn't help.
Phone is running CM11. Any help appreciated.

if battery's charge is very low, it could take a while to show any change. Normally batteries has some charge, but who know when the battery was made and packaged, could have been a couple of years ago. I would leave connected to wall charger over night.

[Q] Looking for a good dock.

I've always liked having a dock on my nightstand for my phones, which essentially turns them into an alarm clock. Wireless would be a plus, or a way to incorporate the turbo charger, but neither is essential. Really just want a stand that charges. Any suggestions?

Don't be paranoid like me lol. I came from a Galaxy nexus with horrible battery life so my battery conservation carried over into my droid razr maxx hd, Droid maxx, and g3.
If you get a new phone every year or two, you're probably fine. But with a non removable battery, it does make it more difficult to fix.
I would strongly advise charging your phone from 30-90 and only do a 5-100% once a month for calibration.
Battery university is the place to read. You will discover that products are built for performance not longevity. Just like with an electric car it's better to slow charge over night. But sometimes you need to charge fast.
With smart charge 2.0 by qualcom aka turbo charge, it's so new of a technology we don't know what implications it will have on lifetime of the battery.
However qi charging isn't new. And most of the energy when charging wirelessly is lost from heat in the transmission. Basically if I were you I would only qi charge when absolutely necessary and monitor the temp with an app or something.
The flipside is usb port wear and tear. It's not cheap to fix a usb port unless you do it yourself. I am not sure how hard you are on your ports. It could be a better situation for you to wirelessly charge.

Just get a tylt wireless charger. I picked up two of them about a year ago. They had a 50% off sale. Use one for my nexus 7, and one for my lg g2. Now the turbo sits on it and works great.
I had a wireless charger the whole life of my g2, and I never saw a negative impact by it. It's just a lot more convenient.
I had this dock http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FOFY1J2/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 that I had ordered for my Moto X. I plugged the Turbo charger into it, and the phone reports that it is being turbo charged through the dock.
Has a little wobble to the phone, because the usb jack sticking out of the dock is a little long, so the phone isn't really sitting on the spring loaded bottom, but I'm not worried about it.

Wireless charging shouldn't get any hotter than the CPU or the cellular radio when they are working hard. The heat is a byproduct of the induction process in the coils of the receiver, not the battery itself. Typically shortening the battery life due to heat is from charging or discharging at a high a rate. The wireless charger is going to offer less power to the charging circuit than your wired charger. I love just placing it on the charger when I get home and not futzing with the USB cable... I understand wanting to get the most life out of the battery though, every bit counts.
I've been using wireless charging on my G2 since getting it last year. No issues with the battery.

The heat generated from the wireless charging is far from enough to damage anything. don't mislead others please. Besides, you go for a run with the phone and the heat generated from your body or if it's outside and the sun beating on it is more than what Qi charging would do under normal circumstances.

Same here, I've been using my Tylt charger for my Note 3 and have had no issues. I typically leave it over night as I set it on the charger before bed. Haven't had any issues, besides the slower charging rate is better for the cells. I would probably take advantage of the QuickCharge if I was on the go and really need to juice up. Otherwise the wireless charging for nightly charging.

My battery jumps to 100%!

The factory charger I got with my Moto X 2013 broke recently so I'm using a different usb cable to charge my phone. The adaptor is original.
When I see my battery, it is 58%. And when I look at it after some 15-20 mins, it is full (100%)!
What is happening? I'd be thankful if someone explained it.

I'd guess your battery is dying. This is how dying batteries behave; the voltage goes up (and down) quickly due to the reduced capacity of the battery. Therefore the battery 'charges' very quickly, but doesn't hold the charge long.
I believe it's still possible to get Moto X batteries. I haven't had to replace mine yet… but it's not what it used to be.
