Could you explain what you did to cause this? I really hope you were messing with things other than what most people have done, otherwise, this could be a real problem for the rest of us.

Had an issue today similar to yours, unlocked the bootloader today and kept the stock rom. Tonight I started deleting the bloatware, mainly using root explorer, no issues really. Used titanium backup to "force remove by exploit" I think its called. Did that and phone went black, tried powering back on, pulled battery etc, nada.
Ended up plugging device to usb charger and booted into bootloader, rebooted from there and its fine.
I ran into this tonight. See this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198585
Short story -- Clockwork Recovery is bugged and won't charge the phone. Your battery level is too low to power on, so you need to use another method to get some power into it.
I did this:
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/15034469/tmp/recovery_fail.jpg
And yeah it's a lame problem.
Ahh, so this is not really a bricked phone, but a case of CWM dead battery! Good to know, as its an "easy" fix then. I was afraid that the phone, simply S-off and perm rooted, had somehow crashed permanently.
Matt
Straight Bricked
For me its not the battery, when tmobile sent me a new sensation i used my old battery, sdcard and sim and the battery still had around a 75% charge. I cant boot from usb i cant do anything. Its completely dead.
As for what i did?
I had been flashing multiple roms and kernels for 2 weeks. Overclocking, undervloting bla bla. No issues a wipe and flash couldnt take care of. I think i did a wipe and flash of a new rom and thats it. Dead. Wish i could remember exactly what it was. I guess im gonna mail it back since i have a new one and probably get charged full retail if they see its s-off and root.

Ahh..So it wasnt the silly CWM ordeal then. That sucks!
Try to pinpoint what you were doing right before this happened. Were you wiping something? (what were you wiping) Were you flashing a ROM? (What were to flashing)
Try to provide more details, as I am sure some of the devs here will be looking to jump all over it shortly.
EDIT: Were to making sure to check that the ROM you were flashing was meant for your version of the phone as well as the files not corrupted? I know it sounds silly, but its something to rule out.
Matt
happened to me too on two batteries. I believe that it is due to overclocking the cpu. because the battery stats are calibrated for a slower CPU speed, it drains it past the failsafe point to pure failure. CWM will recognize CPU for the given ROM. i flashed back to S-ON and regular RUU 1.29 and charging my batteries again for the correct CPU + battery stats. wish me best of luck
Wow, am i that stupid
Not positive but i think i figured out what i did. Something really stupid.
I think i flashed: [Desire] InsertCoin CM7/STOCK 1.1.0
So am i fully bricked?
Gotta put the phone in the mail tomorrow.
Do you think they will see that its s-off or if its (truly) bricked can they not?

They'll know....
actually... having worked in a few cell phone repair / refurbish facilities... i can tell you that they won't even look. they just plug the phone up to their bench and it overides everything and does a fresh flash. from there they just replace plastics to make it look like a brand new phone. if they are unable to flash it at the bench, they replace internals. so relax... no one will know or care what you did to it. these places get thousands of phones a day. and each tech at the bench has a quota to get through.
Thanks for your feedback guys. Shipping it off now...
Still cant believe it. Still have my n1 from launch day and it took everything i could throw at it. Still kicking like a beast. **** my g1 is still running cm4 i think lol.

you can just download Root Explorer and remove the extra bloat yourself from /system/app and /data/data.. Super Manager works well too if you want a free alternative
btw that rom EP1F is a bit dated (in order from oldest to current: EP1F->EP1H->EP1W->EP1Q->EP3H) but if you like it by all means you don't have to change or update.. if you want though the newer ones are in Development or the kernels/roms/mods sticky in general, and flash the same way as the one you just did

what are you trying to do exactly? you can always download the files straight to your phone and flash in CWM, no Odin though without a computer... my Charge connects with a lot of different cables though, I don't know why yours would only work with the stock one

Rom Manager doesn't work well with the Charge.. the only sure fire way to get it to work is flash CWM in Odin, battery pull to turn it off then hold volume up, home, and power until Samsung appears then let go of power button until CWM comes up

No it appears to be hit or miss for some people. I have used many different cables from blackberry, kindle, and other random stuff and not had one not work yet.
Hey do you know if there is a newer rom or not? Or one you'd recommend trying, ever since I started using this rom a crap ton of apps on the android market are saying it's not compatible with my device
So i have been having a battery issue where my phone reads 20% and than dies. It will last the whole day but will die before i know its going to. To try and fix this problem i thought it might be kernel related, Im on a JB rom and was flashing Franco kernel from his app. I finished dwl and i was prompted with the "YES lets do this" to reboot the phone. Once i hit it my phone shut off. I'm like 90% sure it was due to my battery actually being dead. I've had it plugged in for 20 mins with no luck of anything happening when i hit power on or try getting into recovery. At one point it viberated and showed that I have zero battery but that was it. I can't get the thing to do anything. I also only have a MAC computer. PLEASE HELP! I've rooted and flashed a hundred phones and never ran into my phone not powering up at all. Did i brick it?
Anyone that could help please!
I can't think of anything short of getting another battery to see if thats the issue or finding a way to get some juice into the one you have. There was a trick somewhere in the rezound forum to get some charge to dead batteries that wouldn't charge due to an issue with clockwork mod. You should search for those threads and see if it helps.

No they will not, i had to get mine replaced for a charging issue Friday and i was rooted, custom everything. As long as your phone wont charge they wont be able to tell.
Just went in no go. I did indeed BRICK my phone from running a verizon gs3 with franco milestone 5. Everyone beware! Although it was my fault, If people have ran with kernel on the regular these past couple years, It was instinct. Verizon said i'd have to send my phone in and get a new one in two days

Lol Did they give you a temp phone?
Just to throw it out there have you tried getting into download mode? I had a similar problem with my razr where the battery died while flashing and it was bricked. I had to make a factory cable (allows you to flash in download mode without battery power). With this phone though I've noticed that if you leave the cable in and pull the battery while in download mode it will stay on which seems like it's doing what my factory cable did. It's volume down/power/home to get in to download see if you can do this with the phone plugged in.
EDIT: maybe I misread but if the firmware didn't install properly you can be missing even the software required to charge the battery. This means you can't charge up the phone until you flash some firmware in Odin via download mode, which you may be able to do with only the cable attached (direct power to the phone in dl mode and bypassing the dead batter).

I have an ATT HTC X one I had been running a clean ROM. I searched for a Jelly Bean ROM I thought I correctly identified my phone but...
After installing slim rom I get nothing on power on. And I get nothing with the charger plugged in.
Sucks these devices have such similar names. I suppose things went so well last time I was somewhat more casual.
I am leaving it plugged in over night.
Currently on Linux but do have the Windows 7 boot disk I used to do the rooting.
Can someone point me to a description of possible solutions?
Clearly the take it back to ATT and say it just stopped working one is on the list.
I have seen the attempt to boot and power cycle while watching for auto detect devices. I certainly can put a mini linux on a thumb drive.
I suppose the goal is to somehow write something that can boot strap me back?
I am a Linux savvy person so I can use dd if needed. Just need someone to contact me to point me in the right direction.

I'm not sure, but probably. My friend had told me about this Ice Cold Jelly or something that I should get. For some reason I didn't even check that it was international. Though I was wondering more along the lines of warranty, could I possibly take it to an AT&T store and get a replacement?
Searched some forms relating to this and really wish I came here before making the attempt based off of all the warnings. Good excuses I can come up with.

But, things like the camera bug (3rd party apps cant use it, like instagram, guess Skype, Google Now, etc...), screenshots and auto-rotation made me want to go back. (I could manage the APN thing by following one of the replier's advices)
So, question is: Is out there a more stable CM10 ROM? (I know the link I related isnt from actual CM10, yet a modified one. But after reaserch I found that the original CM10 also have this same known issues). If there isn't. Is there a way to go back to a bug-free ICS version?

I did the whole process and clicked START
After a while, several minutes, it showed

And in the result column it shows FAILED
I made sure the battery was full before begin the process, and I haven't touched the phone at all since it started.
What do I do? It's still plugged and the screen's off (Don't sure if the phone is off). I havent touched a thing.

When still plugged in, I pressed the POWER button, and nothing happened, Thought it was off.
I closed the RSD and unplugged the phone from PC and tried to turn it on. NOTHING HAPPENED.
No LED light, No Moto logo, nothing.
Removed battery, tried again....nothing...at all. ¿Dead?
Is it totally screwed? Nothing to do about? PLEASE HELP ME!. Im about to die.

We have seen this way too many times, sorry to say, but to the OP, Please read more before trying these type of things and use search and not get too antsy before attempting things. This phone even though it has a bootloader lock, you can still very easily hard brick it.
The OP, just might get lucky and be able to charge his phone with an external charger, but I am pretty sure that will not do it.
I would go on ebay or craigslist and buy a working A2 with a cracked screen (much cheaper this way), and change out the board with your screen and such, and you should be back in business.
@Waiting4MyAndroid, next time you try to help someone ask them for more information, so you/we can be of better help, this guys is obviously a noob, and if we knew which region he was from and which phone he has, we/you could have given him the EXACT link to the correct file, and then walked him through what and what not to do. I am not trying to be a jerk. I am just saying that most people do not search or read these forms, they ask in a dire need and even when you give a link to read something, they are in panic mode and still do not read, and just do what they think is the thing you just mentioned, even though it may not be the right thing. I know this has been covered so many times, but I have learned that no matter what people do not read or search no matter what you mention, that is why we see soooooooo many of these types of posts over and over.

Jim your advice to me is well taken. Usually I do ask more questions before I offer advice. In this case the OP "seemed" knowledgeable due to the fact his phone was on CM10/MagicMod. I guess everyone should be treated as a NOOB until proven other wise! Hopefully the OP can still recover his phone with a charged battery.

No worries. I was going by his join date of Dec. 2012, and only having posted five times, for noting that he was a noob. I have found that a lot of people can talk the talk well in here, but have maybe used another phone that is not like the A2 and tend to easily mess it up. Especially if this is their first android.

Thanks VERY MUCH for your help. And yes, this is my first Android, and first time flashing, and as you supposed, noob.
:/ I want to believe it is the battery and with a charging will revive, but I don't know. The "super-hardbrick" thing makes more sense to me.
IT WAS FULLY CHARGED, it can't drain 98% in a few minutes, can it?...
Aaaaanyways, I will see if by charging the battery and trying it will show a light.
(Will it charge the battery in this state? or I'll have to make it by other means?)
Thanks @Waiting4MyAndroid and @jimbridgman for replying.
EDIT: When I plug it in the wall, nothing happens. No LEDs, no Moto logo, just black screen. It doesn't shows life signals. Same happens when plugged to the PC.

If that is the case then you will have to try either the Macguvyer method:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=892026
Or find someone with a similar phone that works, that will let you use their phone to charge your battery with (another A2 or a bionic).
Those are just so you can see if it is a battery issue, but at this point, I am thinking you are hardbricked.
Do you have an AT&T branded phone (there will be an at&t logo at the bottom front of the phone under the capacitive buttons)?

Yes, its an AT&T device. I'll try to charge the battery.
/In the case its hardbrick, there's nothing we can do, right? AT ALL?/

You can try and get AT&T to exchange it for a refurb, just tell them you charged it overnight and woke and it was like this. The only thing is that you must have, had the phone less than a year to qualify for this, and you MUST be in the US.
Otherwise you can buy an A2 on ebay or craigslist with a broken screen and put your good screen on that phone and be back in action. There is a thread in the general section that is a sticky on how to exchange your screen with the phone you get that has a broken one. This will be only if you are out of the year warranty or bought this phone and use it outside the US.

I'm out of US, so I guess the warranty thing won't work. (Damn, I guess if I get out of this, will NOT ever try to handle upgrades, and flashing and this stuff) I bought the Atrix 2 from e-bay..Its (was) pre-paid.
Thank you so much for everything. And well, sorry for the inconveniences.
By the way, can you explain to me, what did I do exactly to the phone? I mean, what I understand is that I took out the "software" that ran everything in the device (including powering on) and didn't replace it with the new one since the process didn't complete. So in the end, I took the "soul" out of it, leaving just the dead "body". Does it make sense?

What you did was flash a non AT&T firmware to the device, which causes the phone to "hardbrick" AT&T has some checks built into the hardware that will make the phone "die" if this is done. So if you do get another one, just make sure that you ONLY flash the proper AT&T FXZ file on the SBf-droid.com site, they say which ones are AT&T.
You can flash all the "ROMS" you want, you just can not use a firmware (FXZ) that is not AT&T based, so if you bootloop or softbrick, you need to make sure you use this FXZ file for AT&T ICS:
334.7 MiB 2BF9CCD528C05D26523ACC5B38AC76C6 ATT US InlineFlashing_Edison_67.21.125_CFC_P3_APBP.xml.zip http://sbf.droid-developers.org/edison/InlineFlashing_Edison_67.21.125_CFC_P3_APBP.xml.zip
My guess is that you did not use this file before, and RSD lite began to flash the bootloader, then went to reboot, and the checks happened and saw that the wrong bootloader was flashed and that set off an efuse that "bricked" the phone.

That only works, if Motorola warranties the phone in the Country that you live in.

I live in Colombia, and I bought the device on April 2012 on ebay, had it shipped internationally with USPS.
Do you think I can claim warranty for Motorola directly? Obviously not mentioning anything about ROMs, flashing, and anything. But what can I say?

Nope, you can not get moto to warranty it. You are better buying another phone. I would buy one that will be warrantied in your country, just in case something like this happens.
