i had the same problem no charge and wouldnt booted up....but i took the battery out then placed it back in then charged it then turn it back on it worked fine for me....??
your usb port could be dead, you can try to charge the battery on a separate charger and put it into the phone and see if it works.
I have read here that some have had success in this situation by plugging into wall outlet, pulling battery while plugged in, putting battery back in while still plugged in. Havent tried it myself and cannot vouch for it personally. All risk is your own.
Hey I had the same problem, and it has happened a few times now. Remove your SD card, Replace your battery, plug your phone in: outlet or usb to computer. Attempt to power on, wait till led comes on, hit the power button. (mine did turn on but it would go to the nexus X and then restart). Then unplugged it, (my phone turned off when i did unplug it) then and use your regular power on and it turned on and did a long boot up process. I let it completely boot and then did a power down. Replaced the SD card and it was business as usual.
Hope it helped.
hey
thanks for the help guys i will try these
I installed ICS RUU some weeks ago and all has been well.
All of a sudden now when I plug in the wall charger it takes about 30s or so for the charge led to light up or for the phone to indicate that it is being charged. Likewise when the wall charger is unplugged it also takes some time for the charge indicator to go out with the phone still thinking its being charged.
With the USB cable the PC ding dongs immediately but the charge led will take 30s or so before it turns on and I no longer get the prompt for charge only, HTC sync etc.
In all instances the battery does eventually charge fully.
I have rebooted the phone but same problem.
Any ideas what's going on here?
SOLVED.
I removed and refitted the battery. Back to normal.
Thought I would leave the complete post with solution in case someone else experiences the same problem.
i'm having a problem where i put my battery in (think its completely drained)
the light for charging will flash for about 5 sec then go off
try reinserting again. this time it blinks for a bit goes solid then off after a few sec
try one more time this time its solid for about 5 sec then off again. best i can get it to do. if i do this about 10-15 times the screen led light comes on then off and thats it.
any ideas? is there a way to charge it without it in the phone?
@WK - you could try resetting battery stats. I believe that option is available in CWM custom recovery.
I've seen aftermarket batteries and chargers for the Vivid on eBay.
-RKA
Yes there are inexpensive chargers that you can get for these batteries on Ebay. You may even want to get one including a battery.
Having said this have you tried charging using a USB cable from the PC?
You may have a faulty battery or a faulty charger port both of which should be covered by your warranty.
try this too
try plugging the phone in without the battery connected, boot it up that way if it will let you, and then insert the batt while the phone is on..let it charge for a bit.. and see if that helps. Not the safest method, but it almost sounds like you've got the older recovery with the phone off charge issue.
Hope you get it figured out.
EDIT: Don't bother..i just tried it won't boot that way. I was assuming that it might go both ways, bc i know when the phone is on you can pull the batt and as long as its plugged it it stays on.
I cannot get my sisters TP to boot. I guess she let it die completely, so now when I plug it in, all I get is the home button to blink back and forth. If I try to turn it on, I get the red battery with a lighting bolt icon, then a white plug icon, and when I plug it in from there I get the "To reliably charge" message. I don't have the original ac adapter or cable because she lost it. I have already reflashed the A6 firmware. Also, if I leave it plugged it with the home button flashing, after about 20 minutes or so, the flashing stops for a few seconds, then starts for a few seconds, then stops again and so on and so forth. Is there anything else I should try? Or is this thing dead?
See if you can get an OEM cable or a Touchstone.

Leave it charging for a long time, 24 hrs +, it should charge.
Good luck.
original charger

You need to find an original charger or maybe a compare able 2amp Carter will work. A standard phone charger or USB port on your computer is not powerful enough to charge it.
Check amazon it shouldn't cost more than $10
I have another tablet charging block that is 5.0v and 2 amps, but when I use that all it does is make the home button flash then stop then flash again. I left it charge on my computer overnight to try and get it to trickle charge. When I woke up the home button wasn't flashing and when I try to turn it on, the red battery comes up for a second then the white plug icon. I guess I'll see about getting an OEM cable, hopefully that works.
UPDATE: I got it into "recovery" mode? It was plugged into my PC so I held power and vol up until my pc recognized it. But it's showing up as palm in the device manager, and no drivers seem to work for it.
UPDATE 2: My sister found her OEM charger and now it seems to be actually charging. Thanks for the help, I'll let you know if this doesn't work.
Yep, usually issues like that are because of not using the OEM Charger.

Battery dead, bricking issue
I have had several charging issues with my Touchpad. I am using ClassicNerd Butta OS. IF I am using the Android OS (Butta) and I turn off the Touchpad and then plug it in to charge it will restart the Butta OS. When this happens the Touchpad discharges instead of charging. So, when I come back later the Touchpad is dead and it takes a lot of messing around to get it going again. To prevent this I always turn off the Touchpad when I am using the Butta OS but I don't immediately attach the charging cable. Instead, I wait a bit. Then when I plug in the charging cable I immediately switch to the WebOS operating system. The device seems to charge well using WebOS. When it is done charging I unplug the cable and turn the device off. Next time I restart the Touchpad I let it boot to Butta. Then when it discharges to 80% or so I start the process again as stated. Sticking with these procedures has prevented the no-charge / no-boot issue from reoccurring. I also no longer charge the Touchpad at night. Instead, I charge it in the morning or during the day and only leave it on the charger for an hour or two until it is fully charged. It is my understanding that technique should result in longer battery life and better (longer) charge in the battery.
When my Touchpad battery has gone completely dead it is a real pain to get it to charge up the battery again. When the batter is totally dead the device will not boot into any OS or allow me to even get to the boot loader program. Takes a lot of messing around to get it to start charging again. Though I have been able to, eventually, get it to boot into WebOS and start to charge. But this was not an easy process by any means.
Also, I would agree that you really need to get a stock charger with the cable for your Touchpad. Using a different charger could damage the battery in your Touchpad and/or cause the battery to charge too slowly.
Good luck!

My Hp TouchPad tablet came today and I was told when bidding that it was doing exactly the same thing as mentioned here. I have the OEM charger and cable.. I'll let you know when I can get it straightened out and I hope it is a good one.. Thanks for the info..
While on the OEM charger it booted and I selected webos for the tptb to reflash A6, but soon after it was off charger it went back to the battery icon. battery life low I guess? I selected shutdown. Let it charge over night and see what happens.
Many thanks to many members who are so helpful...
Hello:
I recently got a use Bionic with a cracked screen, no battery, and no sim card. I replaced the screen and bought a non-oem extended battery with cover. When I got everything and fixed it, the phone worked for 3 days. During this time I did a factory reset plus cache wipe then updated everything to latest software and firmware. I had it plugged into my computer to charge over night but on the third day after being plugged in to the computer to charge, I tried to turn on the phone and the white light started blinking at me. I had a wall charger that I use for my Samsung Galaxy Precedent (current using phone) to charge it over night again but all I would get is the Motorola M logo and a then the battery charge status. I search some forums and some one said that my battery was bad so I got an OEM extended battery and an OEM wall charger with dock station. So at this point, the only thing I can access is the recovery screen but that only happens when it is pugged into the wall charger but when I hit the power button I get the Motorola M logo and the battery status which say 5%. Once the screen goes dark again I hit the power button and the battery says 100%. But once I unplug it, I get nothing. Not even the recovery screen. When I plug it into my computer I get the white light again but this time it stays solid. It still will not power up, or even access the recovery screen while plugged into the computer as well. Any suggestion on what might be wrong and what I might do to fix it? Please help someone!
I looked in the previous threads about non-booting but no one I could find had my issue. Bought the Nook HD+ about 4 months ago and rooted it and installed Android (not sure which version but cm11). Out of the blue, last week I pulled it out of my bag and the battery % was flipping between 1% and 31%, so I put some stuff on it via USB and then shut it down to charge. I plugged it in overnight and tried turning it on in the morning. All I was getting was the low battery picture, so I kept trying to charge it, but it wasn't charging, the power light would go to orange when I plugged it in, thena fter 3-5 seconds it would flip green and then turn off and retry. My assumption is the battery is dead, but it could be a corrupted OS now as I got it to charge long enough to get to the CM11 boot menu. But I even went out and bought a new charger and converter to rule that out and it still is stuck in the same boot sequence. I obviously can NOT charge this thing while it is off because of it's reboot loop, it can't charge. I'm not quite sure what is going on or whether it is a battery or boot issue but after I leave it for a big it freezes on the cyan picture (which is frozen on some scrambled version of it) until I turn it off.
I can't power it on enough to charge it to rule out the battery, I tried holding the power and n button for 3 seconds, letting go of the power, and then pressing it again to get into the recovery menu, but that isn't working either. And I prepared another SD card for a second flash for a corrupted OS and that didn't seem to work either.
I'm stuck here and I'm not sure what to do now to get it running again. I don't care about the data on my tablet at the moment.
Try plugging it into a PC USB port over night.

That's what I did that got it charged enough to get to try to boot, where it now shuts down. But now as it tries to boot it reboots, maybe from too much power consumption? I only had it plugged in for half hour or hour before that got it charged to the point where it boots to the logo screen. I have a feeling it is not charging because every reboot the light turns off (orange light stays on for like 5 seconds)
I will plug it in to my PC and charge it overnight and let you know what happens. It's interesting, I plug it in now and the orange charge light comes on, shows the Nook screen, then shows the low battery screen and shuts off, then the orange light turns off, but it remains plugged in... not sure if it is still charging but as I said, I will leave it overnight and see what that gets me.
No success. I can turn it on and the charging lights turns on for 5 seconds and shows the nook screen, then goes black and shows the low battery screen, then immediately shuts off and the charging light turns off and it no longer charges.
Any other suggestions? I can't seem to do anything with the Nook now.
