my phone battery reached 100% utilization and powered off. I tried charging via usb and nothing is happening. I tried on 3 different computers still the same.I already have all the motorola software installed on computer and I have even[URL]my phone is not recognized when connected to computer. I don't know how to install when it is not detected.I don't have power connecter now to test, but I tried my car charger and it came up with red moto logo immediatly.
I don't know if I am missing something, or if I am correct in thinking that the Charge Only mode, while the Atrix 2 is connected via USB to a computer, has been removed as part of the upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich?
I've had my Atrix since launch and it's been doing great, however just starting last night when I plugged it into both the wall, and then to the computer, it won't charge. It "sees" that the cable is plugged in because it lights up the screen, but it seems like the charging / usb port is dead for some reason. The battery is now totally dead and I have it plugged in, and all I get is a green light in the upper right hand corner, no display on the screen. I took out the battery and reseated it, no joy there.
Yesterday I downloaded and installed the gingerbread update. Following instructions I changed the usb mode to whatever the setting was that I needed to complete the update via computer file transfer (mass storage mode?). After completing the update I sat and played with all the shiney new features until my battery died (oops) and now I can't charge my phone because I can't power it on long enough to change the usb mode back to "none" or whatever. Is there a way to override this or externally change this? Prior to the update the usb would default back to charging mode if the battery died, I am happy about the updates, but this issue is a HUGE problem. I hadn't installed the usb driver on my computer to charge via usb connection, and the phone needs to be turned on in order to initialize thisdriver, so I can't even charge that way. If there is no way to externally change this setting, what in the world am I supposed to do to get my phone to turn back on?
I was on a plane with USB points for charging and I noticed that if the phone is off and a USB cord is connected, then the phone turns on. Is it possible to charge the phone with a USB cord without the phone turning on?
If my Atrix 2 dies and I use to USB cable to connect it to my laptop, it will not charge or turn on. The notification light turns white and stays constant. If I plug it into the wall it charges so I know the phone is not broken. I have tried holding down the power button, power ad volume down, power and volume up, power and camera....If I plug it in while still alive and choose the USB function as "charge only" it will charge, but no other time. Does it always have to be "charge only"? I cannot charge and look at files at the same time?
For the last month (since I bought it) my phone won't hold a charge for longer for 8 hours. This was on 1.26 and 1.57 and now on 1.83
Basiclly I am running corparte sync to Exchange and nothing else right now. I was running a live wallpaper and weather (turned off when battery would die) and same result no matter what I run. Heavy phone use or no phone calls. At my house I have a microcell, but work is low signal. Also Corp HQ where I spend 1 week a month has full H+ connection. All seem to last about 8 hours at all three locations. AT&T gave me a new battery and I have wiped 2 times in the last 2 weeks.
Here is what the battery manager says running after 6 hours.
Now look at the pics, Display seems really high. I am on auto brightness, and have a screen lockout of 2 minutes. This screenshot was from 6 hours of use. No phone calls, vibrate and no signal when picture was taken. Display was used 28 minutes of 6 hours of use.
AT&T just tells me to either wipe device or turn of push on snyc. 8 hours is not right for a new phone with no calls and light use.
I usually plug into a computer whenever I am at work or a lot of time at home, but I have recently discovered that I cant charge off my wall adapater anymore. I have tested multiple wall chargers, as well as multiple cables, and while they all work on a computer USB port, and the chargers can charge all my other devices fine (including a HP Touchpad that has higher power reqs than the phone), the phone refuses to charge off the wall. I have gone into the Android recovery and did a factory reset as well as clearing the cache, but no go.
After the recent update, I'm noticing a few things fixed and a few things broken. On the things broken, one is the battery charge indicator in the upper right hand corner of the GUI next to the time.At 29% it shows half full. At 49% it shows at around 75%. If you go to the Settings, Battery & Data Manager, that will show properly at 50% for instance, while the icon shown in the GUI next to the clock is not showing half green but more like 75% greenI have a nifty widget called "Tiny Battery Widget" that gives a more accurate representation (which is consistent with the battery charge indicator found buried in the system's menu under "Battery & data manager" ) and also verifies the small icon at the top right next to the clock is overly optimistic.
id like to buy one of those over 3000mah batteries for my atrix 2 , but where i live i can only find this batteries for the atrix 4g and im not sure if it works on the atrix 2.
My Motorola Atrix or Computer has a Problem install the ADB Interface so there for my phone wont connect to my Computer.I have a windows 7 32-bit operating system.I have tried installing Drivers Manualy, tried using the PDAnet Solution, tried unistalling all USB Ports, tried applications to help.
Will the Lapdock (and other accessories for that matter) work for the new Atrix 2 coming? I've only used the Lapdock lightly and it will be a real shame if it and the other accessories I've purchased over the past year won't work with the 2nd gen Atrix.
I recently had to get a replacement Atrix through AT&T after my original one shattered. I had insurance and AT&T provided me a refurbished one through their insurance program. My question is, will I still be able to get all future updates on this phone or is there something I need to do?
I did the Jelly Bean update on my two month old Atrix HD yesterday. Then my apps started closing on their own and then the homescreen started doing the same thing. Tried to do a FDR and I have the little android guy on my screen now with what looks like a rotating atom in his belly and a blue progress bar below him. Been like this for several hours now and I even tried calling the Motorola people and I'm still where I was. Can anyone offer a solution before I take it back to where I bought it from to see if they will even replace it? I did the holding down the volume buttons simultaneously and then the power button, got the motorola logo and then goes right back to this annoying little android guy with the rotating atom in his belly.
Other android devices have the ability to synch with picassa to view their online albums am I missing something or is this a big whoops not included on Moto's part.
My Atrix has the latest update applied and has started recently showing the following error message:"com.motorola.service.main had stopped unexpectedly" Touching ok returns to the home screen for 1 second and the error reappears. This makes the phone unusable.I have performed a factory reset and the error was away for 24 hrs but now it has reappeared.
Since yesterday all of a sudden my battery started draining like crazy, 100% to 40% in 2 hours. Battery manager shows com.motorola.service.main taking 60% battery.what is this process and why it is taking too much of battery?
When I go to edit contacts I see that motorola services contact has the same contact replicated 10 times or more. How can I solve this if I want to edit the contact information?
Im wondering why MML doesn't have an option to turn it off. I don't use it much and short of installing it I see no option for it not starting up every time I turn on my computer.
I had been able to charge my X2 in a 2011 KIA soul no problem. Last time I tried it would connect then disconnect. I uninstalled new apps, battery pull. My husband has the X and his still charges. So we know the charger is still working. I suspect GB but not sure. I completed some research and have not found anything. BTW I can charge via USB on a computer still.
I have had a Motorola Photon for a few months now and I love it........until now.I plugged my phone in last night before I went to bed and the screen turned on, which told me the phone was charging. I woke up this morning and found that my phone was at 20% battery life and hadn't charged all night. I walked downstairs and tested the phone on another wall charger I have and it did not work either. I then plugged it into my computer and viola, my phone starts charging. On the way to work, I plugged the phone into my car charger and the phone would still not receive a charge but the screen would turn on. I got to work, where I just happen to sell phones, and tested a different Photon battery from a demo phone to see if that was the issue. To no avail, my phone still didn't charge. When I plug my phone in with an A/C charger, the screen turns on but the phone does not accept a chargeWhen I plug the phone into a USB cable connected to my Macbook Pro, the phone charges with no problems.
So, my phone was plugged in all last night and then today when I got to work I left in plugged in for several hours just to see that it hadnt charge. It actually dropped down to 10% battery life and hasnt moved since (still plugged in).
Help! My photon will not hold a charge. It charge up to 100%, but it will be dead after a couple hours with little or no use. I have changed the battery and that did not help. I have check the backlight, made sure that nothing is running in the background and I don't get any emails forwarded to the phone.
My Defy has suddenly stopped charging, neither does it notice when its connected to the PC.
However, when I power off the phone and then plug in the cable it notices, a little white light comes on and the phone powers up. So the USB port must work, at least a little bit.I also have a Desire and the same cables work with it, so I know that the PC and cables are working. There is defifinely something the matter with the Defy.
when we charge the phone when it is switched off why it is jumping from 5% to 15% to 60% to 100%?When we charge the phone when it is off after draining the battery (or ) there are no ways to charge the phone since we are travelling
do we have to charge the phone to 3% and then switch on the phone then we have to charge again to 100% which goes gradually and it takes approximately 2 hours to complete the charge.When we charge the phone when it is switched off then it charges the whole battery within 45 Mins.I think this is a bug in the operating system since, I have never seen in my lifetimte that charging from 0% to 100% in less than 45 Mins.
The other day I plugged my Droid3 into the car charger and confirmed it was 'charging', showing 20%. An hour later, it was still 'charging' at 20% and was very hot. I unplugged the charger from the phone and checked the battery - it was at 20%. Normally, this phone would have charged 100% in an hour.
I plugged the charger back in - the phone charged properly.
The Droid 3 will not charge at all from my car's integrated USB cable. Every other device I have (including other Motorola phones) have no trouble at all charging off the same cord. Given the existing battery issues with the Droid 3, a quick fix would be wonderful. Not sure if there is anything I can change in the settings to address this.This is not an issue of the device using more power than the cable provides, when I say it doesn't charge, I mean it doesn't charge at all. I have heard similar complaints on other forums but search didn't yield any results comparable to this post.
