My phone has worked well but recently did not seem to charge. I suspected the cable may have broken as I could test the charger and it was working. I have two baterries and charged both in the charged (circumventing the need for the cable). But now when I put them in the phone I get a message "Low battery shutdown" the phone then tries to shut down but doesn't. It restarts by itself delivers the same message then tries to shut down but instead restarts. This sequence goes on and on until I remove the battery I can't seem to turn the phone off by pushing the off button and as soon as I insert the battery the sequence starts again without me turning the phone on. Any ideas as to what is going on?
Leo sounds like your batteries may be low on charge, you can buy a device to charge batteries out of the phone. You may want to buy one charge the battery and try again. also check the contacts on the phone and insure they are not dirty two of them monitor the battery condition. Hope this helps
Testimonial: "If you read my problem carefully you would see I have already charged two batteries in the external charger. " I have two batteries and charged both in the charged (circumventing the need for the cable)". I know the batteries are OK and charged up. I have cleaned the battery terminal and the phones battery contacts points. The problem is the phone wont recognize the fully charged battery. It says it is low and shuts the phone down. The irony of the situation is that there is so much charge that it is powering this booting up and turning of process 4 times a minute for the last 15 minutes and is still going. There is plenty of charge in the battery. The phone is turning itself off and then automatically restarting time and time again. I cant figure out what is going on."

Hi V3 is very fragile and if you use the incompatible accessories, you can ruin their ports easily. One weak point of V3 Phone is the SIM card Port is not an opening flap like other GSM phone but using pin and spring Port style which is mean you have to push your SIM card in and use the SIM Card edge to push the pin down in order to contact with SIM metal area interface. But by pushing force is varied from users so too strong and too hurry will damage the pin. If one of the pins is damaged, when you slide the SIM card in, the contact is missing of one or two pins due to damaging of the pin cause the error message "Insert SIM". In this case, only way is needed to replace the SIM Board underneath. If you can do it yourself, please follow the instruction pictures below. If you are not sure and never do this before, I suggest you send the unit to Motorola Repair Center. Your SIM Card Board and charging port will need to be replaced. http://www.itsjustmerob.com/files/V3_Razr-repair.pdf This is a Full Motorola V3 Officially Service Manual and even the Motorola Repair Center also has this one. so copy this link and print it out. Around hundreds plus pages but can be your Guide which you cannot find anywhere else. I gave it to you free but I have purchased it before. Hope that you can get it fix. Other solution is looking V3 parts on sale a lot on Ebay and use them to replace part to your phone will be cheaper if your phone is no longer under warranty. If it is still under cover then send the unit to them and don't spend time and money to do it yourself. But if it is out of warranty and want to avoid costly repair then use the method in the manual I provided you and you will be able to get your phone fix. Good Luck

SOURCE: HTC Touch Pro totally dead?!?!
Dear Muppets.
Does no one of you realize that when a phone or some other electrical equipment has serious malfunctions it is often more then just hard reset or softreset.
I have an HTC touch until one day I am sure I dropped it on the floor
Then woowwwww all of a sudden it started acting up.
Be honest.
These are very delicate phones and not bricks.
They are not as simple or reliable as a basic phone due to the fact that they have complicated systems like Windows.
Aynone ever heard of Windows crashing a PC.
Woowww you sound surprised.
I cna easily make a lot of money making somthing that looks fancy but that works like ****.
Think of some ideas.
Windows, HTC phones or similar. Any modern equipment made in China
This dont understand why a phone whic cost tihs much money can't bemade reliable.
Well come to think of it
Selling 1 million+ of them at a few hundred dollars each gives me an idea.
PROFIT ABOVE QUALITY.
And still you fools fall for it.
Yes the phones looks cool.
Any idea why DELL have been so big for so long.
They produce PC's and laptops that still work reliably after 5 years.
I am typing this on a Dell 8600 my business work horse
I use it for webdesign, VB programming, hardware testing
And trow it in my back everyday and in the boot of my car when I don't need it.
And it has never yes NEVER given me idea trouble.
I have tried a few other laptops
FUJITSU SIEMENS TABLE PC
Worked for 3 months then turned off and never came back on
guess what happend to it
It sold it for parts for 100 Euro
Also tried a brand new ACER.
Send it back to supplier as it kept turning of while doing remote access work.
If it aint broke dont fix it.
If it is .................. BIN
Look at hte amount of hours and time you have already spend on trying to figure out why your phone does not come on or work properly.
You would have had a lot more fun with your new Nokia by now
I personally would recommend LG Touch phones.
I now a 19 year old who had it and he threw it all over te place.
NEVER a problem with it and working like new.
Well if you know that LG are working with PHILIPS then you know why they are so reliable.
QUALITY above PROFIT.
and then still plenty of profit to make good money doohh
SOURCE: how do i resolve the error: use genuine battery. power off
A temporary fix to the problem is to put the battery in the freezer for a minute and then put it back in the phone and it will turn on just fine! I had an LGVX8700 and it just randomly started happening one day and my fiance told me to try doing that so i did and sure enough it worked. I had to go to verizon at one point to get a new phone because the one i had got damaged and the tech there used the same battery in my phone for the new one and he thought i was crazy when i told him to put the battery in the freezer but he was in for a surprise when he did what i told him and my phone turned on. It's annoying because you have to do that everytime your phone shuts off but i always made sure i plugged it into the charger before it went completely dead.
If the battery does not get charge even after there is a good charger and a good battery then the motherboard is a suspect.
So unless the phone boots up the mother board seems to be the suspect. Seeking help from the authorized service /support centre is most ideal. Take estimate and decide.
