Since I installed my first custom ROM, my Atrix HD hasn't been able to charge while off: It just sticks at the bootloader-unlocked screen. I have tested this with several ROMs on several occasions, with several chargers. Any ideas?

Do you experience the same problem with stock 4.1.2 roms? Does this happen with the phone off and connected to a computer and wall charger?
The ROMs basically won't let the phone stay off. Just kinda got to deal with it.
Sent from my PACMAN MATRIX HD MAXX
I haven't tried any stock ROMs yet. It happened with 4.1.2 and 4.2, on both computer and wall power.
I'm using Holoblur v.9 and it charges while on or off via my computer and wall charger without issue.

Hi,
Wondering if anyone experienced these two issues with an AHD that has been rooted, has an unlocked bootloader, and running CM10.1 or stock rom:
1) I can power down my Atrix HD from the power menu and it stays off. As soon as I connect my AHD to a usb cable that is connected to my running Win7 computer or wall charger, the phone will power up and boot to the desktop on its own; and
2) when my AHD is running and connected to my running Win7 PC or wall charger, I can select power off from the power menu and the phone will power down and immediately power up again and boot to the desktop. It will not stay off unless it is not connected to my PC or charger.
Other than these two issues, the phone seems to work perfectly. I don't recall the phone exhibiting this behaviour until after rooting and unlocking the bootloader.
Any information would be appreciated.
Thanks.
The phone just likes to power up when it's connected...
That's what it does... In fact, that's what it *always* does. (For me... and for most phones out there...)
IIRC it does this for every rom... For me, it just boots to a screen showing current battery...

For me, it boots completely to the desktop for every custom rom I have tried and on the stock Bell 4.1.2 stock too.

Yup, my experience too... Scared me a few times while trying to get back to stock, but as soon as it's unplugged, it does what I'm asking it to do... Appears to be the M.O. of the phone...

Had the same issue with my sister-in-law's phone that had an xpal charging case. Figured it out and it seemed to be a specific charger I was using on it. Switched to the one that came with the phone and it stopped rebooting. Haven't seen the laptop connection thing.

Weird, but when the phone is off, and I connect it to my Samsung charger, it cuases the phone to power up but the screen becomes a bunch of coloured dots on a white background and it doesn't boot to the Carbon rom desktop. When the phone is off and I connect the USB cable from a charger designed for my Logitech Harmony remote or a usb cable connected to my PC, the phone boots normally.
I'll try it with a Motorola charger tomorrow.
I would. May be the other cables or chargers are higher voltage? Either way, good luck.

Looks like it's an issue with the Carbon rom. I restored to stock JB and it does not reboot with a stock rom while connected to a wall charger in that it powers down and shows the battery charging symbol. With stock JB and connected to my computer, it still restarts.
Not a big deal since I rarely, if ever, turn off my phone. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I'm going back to Carbon rom as it's faster than the stock 4.1.2.
I'm absolutely freaking baffled. Simply put, my Atrix HD doesn't charge if it's powered on. At all. It doesn't even recognize that it's plugged into a power source. As soon as I turn it off, the little green light at the top lights up. I need help, this is infuriating me.
Have you tried a different charging cable... Or plugging it into the USB port on a PC while the phone is on? If it still displays these symptoms, it's possible the micro USB connector on the phone is messed up

I am now realizing I should have gone into more detail about the issue. I went to plug it in today, and it wouldn't charge. It was running the latest Milestone build of CM11. I went ahead and tried to turn it off and back on, and it started boot looping. I managed to get it into AP Fastboot and fastboot-flashed it back to stock. It has an unlocked bootloader. So now I'm on stock Android 4.1.1, and boot looping with the battery below ten percent. Above ten percent, it stops looping and just kind of sits there, but will boot up fine. Once I get it back into Android, it stops charging again. The issue persists no matter what cable/charger/PC combination I use. Since it charges fine in Fastboot, Recovery, and while off, and persists across multiple chargers and cords, the only idea I have is that it is a software issue in Android somewhere, I just can't figure out for the life of me where it might be.

Well now it won't boot at all, so it's a bit of a moot point.
UPDATE: It's boot looping again, pretty sure that's it having a more or less dead battery tho. Woo!
Are you using original Motorola charger ? I've had problems with 3rd party chargers/cables with Atrix.

Yeah, original Motorola charger.
Just a note, I can get it into fastboot, flash it, reboot it, and have it not boot loop for a few minutes, but as soon as the bootloader hands control off it stops charging...while it's in fastboot it seems to either be charging or running off USB.
I have an Atrix hd with the Maxx battery mod. No roms just stock android. The other day it was freezing and I did a hard reset. Got it up and running but later on it froze again and nothing. I opened it up and looked at the battery the ribbon cable looked like the connections have been severed so I bought a new battery thinking I could swap it out and solve it. Still nothing
I have no notification lights, doesn't look like the screen is getting power, I have tried charging it with 2 different chargers (stock and 2.1 amp from nexus tablet) before and after battery swap. Tried usb to pc to see if that would do something and nothing. It is totally bricked.
My question is is there any hope? All of threads I have found on getting it back up lead me nowhere. Thank You
Hello,
I seem to have lost the ability to turbo charge on my N6. When I use the turbo charger, the phone charges normally, but does not "turbo" charge. I've also lost the ability to connect to a PC. No machine will recognize my device, so I'm also wondering how to update to 5.1 once released without a PC.
Not sure if these issues are related. Maybe a hardware issue? I'm on a stock, rooted device (with forced encryption off) with TWRP recovery. The problems seem to have started after I manually updated to 5.0.1 using this method:

Please let me know if anyone can help.
Thanks
there's no real "turbo" mode in the n6, if its charging normally, then its right. how long would you say it takes the device to charge? and about connecting to the pc, is your nexus driver installed? sounds like it had an error somewhere. try installing it again, or manually. if the n6 driver isnt installed, your pc will never see the n6.
I noticed, I used a longer cord plugged into the Turbo charger, it would take about 5-6 hours to charge (I forget the %). Then I switched the cord back to the one that came with it, and the time was cut in half, 2-3 hours. Make sure you are using the correct cord.

It takes about 5-6 hours to charge from 0%. And yes, I have tried deleting the drivers and reinstalling them automatically and manually. It's not a driver problem as I've tried multiple computers (both PC and MAC). I've used multiple USB ports and cables. I've tried literally everything.

Thanks. I'm using the correct charger and cable. In fact, I thought I had a defective charger so I had Motorola send me a brand new one. Still not working correctly. In fact, when I enable USB debugging and MTP connection, it won't charge at all using the turbo charger. I have to disable USB debugging and MTP to get it to work. Very strange. That's why I think something went wrong with my installation of 5.0.1 or one of my modifications (enabling landscape mode on home screen, enabling screen mirroring, enabling tethering, franco kernel, root, decryption, etc.). I'm really hoping it's not hardware.
If it takes that long to charge on a wallplug you're hardware is probably defective. It generally takes me 3 hours to charge from 0 to 100 with a 5v 1amp wall charger. A little less with a 5v 2amp port. About 2 hours in fact.
5 to 6 hour charge rates only make sense if you're charging off the a powered USB port from a computer.

Either it's charger's issue or it's charging IC's issue. If you can find another turbo charger, try charging with that. If the same issue repeat, then ask for a replacement

Good luck getting a replacement charger. I have been trying to get a replacement charger for two weeks. Moto customer service is terrible.

Hey all, I find my nexus with the turbo charger goes from empty to full in about an hour and ten maybe twenty. Today I plugged it in at 13% at noon and by one it was at 94% so some of the charge times I'm seeing here seem way long compared to what I've been getting on my device. Is there different turbo charge blocks out there!?

If by any chance you have access to the Note 4's charging block, try that one. It works extremely well with every turbo charge device I've used.
My Huawei has a problem charging the battery, charging time is too long. He needs two hours to fill from 50% to 65% ?????? Does anyone know how to solve the problem?
How are you charging it? via a computer? What kind of charger do you use if you don't use a computer? The stock one that comes with the device or a different one?
Have you tried using a different charger for the phone?
I've never had any problems with charging my huawei ascend p7 and I'm using the stock charger that came with the device.
Also charging from my laptop seems to work fine for me.
Also, are you using a custom ROM?

I tried with a stronger charger and charge the battery quickly ....
I use samsung charger from very beginning, since from few days I'm facing this late charging problem
Hey, I got the same problem now. I do the same as alway (= same charger, cable, the same apps using, same android version, etc.) and now it got very slow charging unreasonably. I tried to change chargers, cables, plugs, but the same story appears.
to charge 1% up takes more than 3 -4minutes, before it was 50% less time...
