Motorola Droid Bionic :: Battery Will Not Charge After Installing ICS - Stays At 5 Percent
Oct 23, 2012
I finished installing ICS 3 hours ago. The problem was that my battery died during the time it was updating media database. Now, the battery will not charge. It says at 5%. If I am using my phone at all (i.e. just making folders) it heats up and dies/turns off. I've tried 2 different batteries and 2 different chargers with the same results. Also- 3 hours later and I still have no contacts and many apps no longer work (google voice).

I've got a wifi only Xyboard 10.1 that has in the last couple of weeks developed the won't charge issue. I've read through the forums and some say it's the battery. It seems to be a micro usb port issue in my case at least. I can prop the cord just so and get a charging indication but it never seems to charge in actuality, rarely going above 30%.

I am going to purchase another battery for my Bionic so I can swap batteries when I am running low. Is there a dock or something I can purchase that will allow me to charge just the battery? So I can be using my phone whilst charging a separate battery at the same time?

The % has not moved for over an hour now. I'm on a decent LTE connection and USB power. I'm hoping I don't have to start over, it took almost 2 hours to get that far.

My phone doesn't want to charge. I replaced the charger and it worked for a few day and now its not working again. Earlier today it would only charge to 30%. Now it will only charge to 20%.

I'm at work posting on the bionic so making this short. I let my phone charge over night with oem wall charger i unplug it to go to the gym. Well i usually turn the lights on in my room. This morning i did not as i unplugged the bionic the backlight light up dimly. I let it sit i finally got tired of testing it the backlight stayed on indefinitely. I let it sit 5 min still on i have to push power button to wake and again to lock. So i was wondering if anyone noticed this it can drain battery i sometimes put phone in gym bag after charging without waking phone.

this is my third Bionic and when I have the charger plugged in the backlight doesn't automatically go off after the minute that I have it set at. The first two phones didn't do this.

Basically I charge my phone with the mains charger, everything looks fine, the orange light comes on and the battery symbol in the corner shows that it is charging. I leave it charging overnight, so it's usually plugged in for a good 7 hours, however, when I wake up the next morning the phone isn't fully charged, at best I am on 50% and at worst the battery symbol is yellow.
I've been upgraded to ICS quite a while and have not installed any new apps recently so I am a bit stumped as to what the issue is. I thought maybe it was the battery, but I have since bought a new battery and I get the same issue with this also. A factory reset has also not sorted the issue.

I've had my Bionic since the first week it came out, and, while I generally love the phone, I have had just about every documented problem in existence; I'm fairly sure the employees at my local Verizon store just think I'm trying to scam them into giving me a new phone. Originally, I had the usual data and service connectivity issues-while this was annoying, and did lead to getting me lost in rural Alabama, it seems to have been resolved as I haven't had problems with that in nearly 2 weeks. Then I had the random and frequent power off/black screen of death issues, where even battery pulls wouldn't work. The guy at the Verizon store did a factory reset and everything seemed to be fine for all of 2 weeks. Starting today, my phone will not charge at all. I have used 4 different cables, including the stock USB one that came with the phone, and it will not charge past 5 or 10 percent, and it takes a good hour to get that far. I've also tried charging it in multiple outlets, on my laptop, and using a car charger. Same thing. This is obnoxious, to say the least. To complicate matters, the black screen of death has returned with a vengeance. As of me writing this, I cannot get my phone to respond at all, again, on any charger. I've tried multiple battery pulls, and letting it charge in excess of 30 minutes before attempting to power on, and nothing is working. Every so often I'm lucky enough to get the phone to turn on, just to have it turn back off within 20 minutes or so, all the while remaining at 5% battery. I paid for the insurance from Verizon, but there's no way I'm paying $90 for a replacement phone when I've done nothing to damage the phone-it's been in a case since the first week after I bought it. I'm going back to the Verizon store tomorrow, and unless some miracles occur before then, I'll just refuse to leave without either a new phone, or the RAZR.

I bought an Xperia Ray from Telus in mid-January this year. It was working fine until now. Today, the battery drained to 0%; it's done this before and I haven't had any prior issues with recharging. Now, when I try to charge, it won't do so. My computer won't recognize it ("USB device not recognized"), PC Companion doesn't recognize a phone, and it won't charge in any outlits in my house.
When plugged in, the phone flashes red and reboots itself constantly, making it past the start-up screen onto the main screen. It stays there for about 10 seconds loading my settings; however, I can't unlock the screen, the battery icon is red and not charging, and it goes from recognizing Telus to not recognizing a network or a SIM Card. I didn't download any updates manually recently. I tried removing the battery for a bit and then putting it back in.
I've tried removing and putting back the SIM Card. Nothing works. Randomly, the LED will be orange, and pressing the Power button shows the battery charging symbol; however, turning the phone on shows that the battery is STILL at 0% even after being on the charger for three hours. I didn't drop it, expose it to water, or do anything that may damage the phone. I'm on Windows 7 Home Premium 64x, if that means anything; also tried rebooting, but my laptop refuses to recognize the phone in any port.

I purchased the verizon brand charger through there store because of the long usb cable and faster charging times. My phone now no longer charges past 90% and the touch screen is almost completely unresponsive while plugged in the wall. Obvioulsy the charger is not compatable with the phone but how do i get it back to 100%

My HDMI icon stays in my status bar after I use HDMI to my TV. It won't go away until a reboot. Does anyone know why? Is there a procedure I'm not following to disconnect cable?

When my Bionic is on the charger that came with the phone, the touchscreen acts totally erratically when trying to use it. If I'm trying to type a text message, it randomly hits letters, backspaces, etc. Same thing for trying to scroll and select stuff. However, the phone charges just fine. When I use the charger that came with my OG Droid dock, the phone is fine. Touchscreen works perfect. Same goes with the Moto car charger I have.
Assuming it was a bad charger, I spoke with Motorola chat online and they agreed to send me a new charger. I received it today (although it seems it's a different type of charger. It's not the USB cable with a wall adaptor, but an old school charger where the cable is permanently attached to the wall adaptor) but the phone seems to be doing the same thing (although it's not as severe as it was with the original charger that came with the phone).

My battery is running very hot. Ususally when the battery is hot it will lose its charge rapidly.
How to determine which apps if any are the cause..
I dont believe its a faulty battery as I have a second battery and will have the same problem with that one.Yesterday I hardly used my phone. I was at home ( which is in a weak signal area) and when I checked the phone at around 8pm it was dead. Off with no charge left. Started the day with an overnight charge.
If the problem is an overactive app how can I find it and remove?

My phone sometimes dies when it reach lower the 40% of charger most of the times wen it gets under 20%. I use battery indicator. Probably a way to fix this that is annoying and sometimes scary to know that ur phone might dies when you less expect it. I believe my battery is in good health but i dont know if its the phone, or the battery.

I just had this happen yesterday. I was getting on a flight and powered off my phone. I had about 40% when I powered down. When I got off the flight, my phone wouldn't power up, so I found an outlet and found that I had no power. I know I powered it off, and so why would it be out of juice when it had battery left when I powered down?

Since .893 I've seen the % of battery used by 'Android OS' to be significantly higher than before. Previously (after 12 or more hours of uptime) I'd typically always have Display as the highest %. Now it's always Android OS. Right now I'm at 16 hours on battery and my Android OS is 64% at 44 min. My Display is only 7 min.
All the same apps since before .893 and no new ones. Factory reset has made no difference in this. if this is something known and to be addressed in .901 ?

I used to get pretty good life out of my stock bionic battery. I updated the OTA update early today and since then the battery level has been going down at almost 10% every 30 - 40 mins. Following is the list in my battery usage queue. This is after I did a system reset and left my phone without any new apps (except for facebook).
Display 30%
Android System 17%
com.motorola.contacts 12%
Android OS 9%
com.motorola.home 8% ....
I am planning to charge it to 100% and then see how it behaves. Will keep this thread posted with stats from my phone.

Former OG user. Ran WIFI at home 24x7. Typically, wifi averaged about 2-3% of battery drain.
Got a Bionic this week, running Airplane mode at home , wifi on, disabled sleep policy. Look at these stats:

I've done some google searches and really haven't found a definitive answer on this. I've been getting more excited about jumping onto the 4G bandwagon in early 2012. But I'm "HEARING" that LTE introduces a significanly fastert battery Drain. I currently have a DROID X and am able to get though mots of a day w/o having to recharge - minimal Phone use (maybe 4 calls a day), mostly web browsing, social networks, messaging, etc.

My battery door has become very weak and creaky since I have to do so many battery pulls. I have the extended battery and it seems the only way to get a new one is to buy another battery. My back door barely stays on. Also, are there any plans on marketing skins for the external battery? This would make the phone feel more solid and protect the bezel from scratches.

I just put a hard case on my Bionic and I cant actually get it off that easily, so my question is when my phone freezes is there a battery pull shortcut like Power + volume up/down or something?its already happened once... had to take 2 spoons and a screwdriver to get the case open. and id rather not keep doing that so i dont break the case becasue its really good for my Bionic.
