I've noticed sometimes when I change batteries that my camera flash blinks when I insert it. Is this a problem with the phone circuit or just the battery discharging on the contacts? The only thing I could find about other people's experience with that was from the phone getting wet. My phone has never been wet.

I've noticed this before with someone's phone... I pulled the battery out and the camera flash blinked when I reinserted the battery. Turns out this issue was caused by the SIM card because it was going bad. Could this maybe be the issue?

That sounds really odd. No, sim is good. I thought it may be something simple like static.

Mine has done that before stopped when i used the extended battery
Thank you for the reply! I was actually using the extended battery at the time. Just hoping I wasn't having a problem more serious with the phone other than a little static flux when touching the contacts. It only happens on initial contact. Taking it out and reinserting doesn't reproduce the effect.

Hey guys just did the ota update. Now on trip in car and when plugging into car charger, the battery does not show as charging (lightning bolt through battery symbol), but the% in my battery app is going up,.so it is charging.
Anyone else seeing this issue also?

Actually the battery is not even charging. it is not the charger either, as the other two androidphones are charging. Only the atrix doesn't charge. Any ideas anyone?

Offtopic but can you comment if you have battery jumping issues with OTA. And also if you have high "phone idle" usage issue in battery like the rest of us in leaked version?
When I restart phone it goes up 10%..

Let me get that straight? You installed offical OTA update from Motorolla and you have battery jumping issue, right? How on earth they do not know about this bug?

LOL.....they know, they just don't care enough. Besides, who ever restarts their phones on a regular basis? (besides us)
there is no difference between the leaked OTA and the Offical OTA, so yes there is a chacne the battery issue is still there. dont let your phone die complete has you may not be able to flash a different sbf. AND WHAT EVER YOU DO, DO NOT FLASH ANY OFFICAL 1.83 OR YOU WILL HARDBRICK
Does anyone have a "fix" or idea why car charger won't charge atrix, but will charge an sgs2 and arc?
Also the battery is discharging at an alarming rate. Is there a method to fixing it or am I at the mercy of the customer friendly and over productive people at Moto (sarcasm)...

Quite often after I end a phone call, my Photon goes nuts. The screen will start to randomly scroll up and down and side to side, apps will start to open, the phone will start calling people. The only fix is a battery pull. Im stock and rooted. Anyone else experienced this? Ideas of of what app might be causing this

It's not totally impossible that they all could have an issue. Are you charging them using a charger and leaving them on it for extended periods of time? That's a killer for lithium ion batteries.

That could be part of your problem too. It's best to use an HTC charger for an HTC phone because they circuitry is designed to charge HTC batteries. It's best not to mix an match them. The amperage could be different.

Well I thought by leaving it on the charger till it turn green I unplugged it but the most it goes to is 70%,can't even calibrate it
Sent from my ADR6400L using xda app-developers app
It's been proven calibration doesn't help. I can even attest to that. Try letting the battery drain completely. Then charge it full while it is off. Then disconnect the battery cable and reconnect it and let it charge to green. Let it sit for 20 more minutes. Or charge fully and reboot your phone.

You need an HTC charger my friend. Charger voltage matters.

I've got the same problem. I bought the wife a tbolt off craigslist cuz she liked mine. It won't charge past 3900 mv. I can take my fully charged battery from mine and put it in hers. It'll show like 30 percent charge and 3900 mv on battery widget. Even tried a power mat in case it was a USB port problem to no evail. Different roms, differnet batteries, differnt chargers
If I knew what was malfunctioning I could change it out with a parts phone I have but don't know where to start
Extended batteries typically don't show the correct percentage. The thunderbolt wasn't designed for them so they don't always show correctly. Once it shows full reboot. After you reboot and charge to full do it again. Do it until you reboot AMD it stays the same. If it doesn't the battery is probably bad. You can check the battery condition in your settings about phone.

As in, it gets to a certain percentage level and then plateaus? Or does it simply not charge up at all?
It only discharges when am using it while charging it but when am I leave it to charge on its own without using it, it charges very well. Any idea?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using xda premium
Seems to me like whatever you're using or running while it's charging might be negating the charging taking place, due to the amount of battery it's taking to run it.
If you're on WiFi or something while it's charging, I could potentially see how the output/input in terms of voltage could become stagnant or even decrease. Obviously just a theory, but I would say the energy your phone is using to run the task (ex: WiFi) is the same or even less than what it's drawing for energy to charge.. depending on what you're running, of course. Therefore, if you aren't using the phone (thus you're not "pulling" energy), it charges fine.
I don't think anything strange is going on here, but I could certainly be totally wrong - who knows.
I use internet while charging but anyways thanks for that.

Is there a way to get rid of it? Every time I charge with the phone turned off, that stupid screen stays on all the time, causing the phone to over heat and not charge at all. I have to cool it down for a good 10-15 minutes before it can start charging again. Any suggestions?

Don't charge it while it's off, it's a problem for everyone with an unlocked bootloader I believe.

Does it actually hurt the phone or battery? Just out of curiousity . I didn't read it in the forums.

The phone overheats (like the surface of the sun) and it actually drains the battery instead of charging it. You have to cool the phone down before it can normally charge again. Even if its plugged in, my battery still went from 7 to 5 to 3 until I cooled the phone down

I just noticed that lol. I had a couple times where it showed it. But I was able to reboot to recovery and restart without it heating. But 30 minutes ago I let it sit for 15minutes and it did get hot, much like oc and benchmarking.
