Hi, go here and have a read, http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1137323,
It sounds like a cwm issue you have.
To fix your current issue though you need a battery with some charge in it. There are some ideas out there on how to "jump start" your battery, but i would advise caution using any of the stripped usb cable methods.
Best bet is to get a battery from a friend with a decent charge in it, or put your battery in a friends phone and charge it. Then do the cwm update.

I had the problem, so I updated my CWM and a few days later (now) its dead. LED blinks a few times but thats it.

Any other options ?
Here we go I have the same issue ...
So if all else is working, no error with CWM, what else could be causing the batteries not being charged or takes a veeeeery long time, and still they are not fully charged ?
Battery is not hot, I have rebooted several times, I have tested all kinds of resets, but that does not change anything, still lousy charging.
I have reflashed CoreDroid ROM v2.5 several times, using stock kernel, still no go.
Is the main board malfunctioning, could it be a bad battery, bad cables, what ?

Charging problems?

OK I am having issues charging my phone. Tried 4 different chargers it ain't happening. So called att. They sent me a replacement guess what! It won't charge either. Anybody else have problems with it?

I would first say it was the rom your on since on cm9 if you let the battery die it won't charge really and turn back on but since your got a replacement that shouldn't be the problem. Maybe all of your chargers are broken, and if not then possible the power outlet your plug gig into is fried

I just flashed seans sky 4.2f att speed this morning and have been getting "battery disconnected" errors about 10 seconds after plugging in my phone no matter which charger i use. i.e. My battery wont charge. It was working fine on both chimera 2 and aokp 39 with cymbaline last night so my guess is it's rom related. Going to try flashing a few different things to see if i can fix it with a different Rom/kernel combo.

I do not have exact same issue, but sometimes, when my phone is out of battery and then i put it back on charge, it just vibrates for ever, until i turn it on while its charging. It started doing it recently.

Tab dead help!

Right Soooo I left this tablet off the charger for quite a while. It died and I thought nothing of it. Went to charge it today and it just keeps looping on and off with the battery charging screen but it isn't charging. It's been on the charger all day but it simply isn't charging. Is there anything I can do?

Take off charger, wait for screen turn off, hold power button until the logo appears. See if you can do that.

It's completely dead lol. I've tried this

Maybe some water entered. Happened to mine once. Try blow drying it or leaving it in the Sun.

see if you can get it into download mode using the charger. theres a possibility that the problem is the power button.

I agree. You can try puting and removing power cord fast, so he'll boot, at least if you can go inside download mode, you can flash a stock rom.

again impossible it doesn't even have enough of a charge to stay on to put it into recovery mode or any other mode.

sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but this is what happens when lithium cells/batterys charge is below 3.5 - 2.8 volts , your options are: leave it plugged in till it wakes up an stays on ; plug it in til it turns off,unplug and plug in reapeating till it juices up enough to stay on ; remove the battery and plug back in as a reboot (requires opening the tab) ; or remove the battery and aply 5.0 volts @ 1.5-1.7 amps for NO MORE than 2 hours, then plug back into the tab and resume normal charging .( hope this helps you/your tab) never leave dead lithium uncharged for more than a couple days

sorry to say: bring it to service, that's not normal.
It should at least charge when it is switched to completely OFF

Not Charging

My phone was working fine before I feel asleep a few hours ago. When I woke up my phone was about to die. So I grabbed it and was gonna plug it in but then I nodded back off. When I woke up 25min later it was dead. So I plugged it in. And it turned on.
Figured everything was good to go. Well its been an hour or so now and I noticed it is not saying its charging even tho I have it plugged in. It says the battery is at 0%. So I unplugged it thinking it was just a glitch. But as soon as I unplug it from the charger. It shuts off.
I am currently using multirom to run stock rooted and Omnirom. I've been in Omnirom most of the day, so I tried booting into my stock ROM and I have the same problem. Except at least on stock it shows the charging symbol in the battery. Even tho it still says its not charging and is at 0%.
Not quite sure what the problem is. I charged it earlier this afternoon and it was working fine. I haven't made any system changes today. Only did some theme work using UCCW and zip themer. Other then that tho no changes have been made since the last time it was charging perfectly fine.
Only thing I can think of doing Now booting up into fastboot and flashing stock factory images and starting over fresh, since I've already tried rebooting, tried both ROMs, and tried multiple chargers/outlets, including my wireless charger. All to no avail.
EDIT - forgot to mention I am running the latest Franco Kernel on stock side and the latest version of Faux kernel on Omnirom.

Its charging with the phone off?
if it is,as you said flash to stock!

Its not charging at all. This is what my screen shows. If you look at the top widget it shows the battery as 2/3 full but says 0%

So to confirm 100%... if you turn the phone off for 30 minutes whilst connected to USB power then unplug it, it will not power up at all? If so, sounds like a hardware fault.
Isn't there a common bug where 2nd roms sometimes wont charge at all using multirom?

Have you try using PC usb to charge it? Just to rule out the phone charger unit defective here..

It takes a while on the charger to resurrect a dead phone (or even for it to look like it's being resurrected).

he said multiple chargers multiple outlets.
I'd get rid of the multiROM and see if that fixes it.

I am using multirom + omni, and I noticed when I drain the battery to zero and charge the phone the battery stays at zero, until I shut the phone down and replug the phone then boot it back up, then the battery returns to normal. Not sure if this is what happens to you too, have you tried?
I have xposed partially installed (no root since I'm too busy to get supersu for now) and I multiboot Firefox and beanstalk if that matters

I tried that but it didn't work. I just reflashed factory images and now it works fine.

I did not read all the post in detail but the N5 has wireless charging. Do you have Qi charger? Personally that is what I use less wear and tear on your port. Also you said that it showed it was charging but it wasn't not sure what you meant by that.

Nexus 5 Not Charging Nor Turning On (Troubleshoot)

I have a 16GB Nexus 5 running stock ROM with Franco Kernel. No crazy overclocking or undervolting going on. I was using my phone throughout the day today without any problems but I left it on my desk and the battery drained to 0%. I tried plugging it in to the charger and then turning it on but it kept booting and then powering off at the home screen even though I had it connected to a working charger (I tried multiple chargers and outlets). After about three more tries after leaving it to charge for about fifteen-twenty minutes or so, still no fix. I let it charge for a half an hour this time but now it wont even boot. I've tried holding down the power + volume buttons but still no luck. This is my first time having this type of problem, any recommendations on what I should do?

I guess it's a soft brick
Have a clean installation of the kernel again with adb commands

Plugged it into my computer but its not recognizing my phone considering its not on? I'm not sure if I'd be able to use adb commands with it not being powered on or am I wrong?

Is it showing that it's connected?
If not, are the drivers properly installed?
If it's just a boot loop then your device has soft brick!

I'm sure I have the correct drivers as I used adb commands on my device a few weeks ago and I've connected it to my computer numerous times to transfer files in the past few weeks. I dont think its a bootloop now (It may have been before) because the nexus isn't even powering on anymore. I've had it connected to the charger for the a while now and every five or ten minutes, I've tried powering it on but no luck, it wont even show a glimpse of a boot screen.

Just keep your device on charging for some time and check whether it's turning on or not
Can you go into recovery??

No, I'm not able to boot into recovery. I'm planning on leaving it to charge for an hour or so to see if anything happens. When I was charging it before it stopped turning on, the battery didn't show any change even after charging for 15 minutes.

Leave it on charge
If you can't get into recovery, then I guess you need to visit service center!

I left it unplugged overnight after having it charge for an hour and this morning I tried turning it on and it booted, I went through thecbootloader and tried rebooting through it and it booted up but it powered off again when it got to the home screen. Before it turned off, I glanced at the battery percentage and it still showed 0% despite all the times I had it charging.
