Charging Battery Suddenly unable to get phone to accept charge. Battery is only 1/2 strength but when power plug inserted the charge indicator does not show. I'd rather not purchase a new battery if the problem is the usb connection or something else.

    Yup, mine too... all of a sudden won't take a charge. I tried restarting it with the plug in, out, etc, and still nothing.

    Took it to Verizon - was given a new phone - no questions asked. It was well out of warranty leading me to believe this is a common problem.

    Hmmmm. Suddenly after several months of use, I've got the same problem. This is my second MotoQ - the first was replaced "no questions asked" after it consistenly powered off while composing e-mails or text messages. I hate spending time on stupid things that really should work. Dumb.

My battrey is not charging

1) is the power source active (some wall sockets have a switch to render power there inactive -Australia)
2) is the charger plugged into an active power strip or an active wall socket?
3) is the charger damaged?
4) how long has the cell phone been charging? If the battery was completely discharged, it may take a bit for it to show a screen of it charging.
5) if the battery will not accept a charge, it will have to be replaced. Lithium batteries retain longer life spans if you charge them when power level is down to about 20 percent, NOT when they are completely discharged.
6) Better write down the battery number and amps when you pull the battery and keep it with phone documentation.

b) press and hold this 3 buttons at the same time: "call " button / " * " button / "3" button
c) while holding and pressing the 3 buttons, switch and press the power button and wait till a display appear on the screen.

Phone wont turn on!

i have noticed that the mini plug for the charger and usb connection on RAZR V3 is sometimes sloppy. when the phone is charging it will definitely say battery charging on the external display and also flash the battery icon. i also noticed that the plug for the wall outlet is touchy.
make sure the plug is secure in the wall outlet
make sure the mini plug is secure in the phone
gently wiggle these connections if you have to till you get the battery charging message
if there are any connection problems there will be a unable to charge message instead.
