Phone not charging or turning on - Moto G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So, I accidentally let my phone run down to zero battery. Now it won't turn on, even when plugged in. It used to show the empty battery icon, but now shows nothing, not even that icon, or even the LED.
Anyone have any ideas, or places to point me out to.
I'm gonna leave it charging overnight.

So, leaving it charging overnight seemed to do the trick.

So, i did it from this link
-------------------------------------------------
Use the electrical outlet charger (not usb pc or notebook), connect the device and hold the power button until start. (may take up to 2 minutes)
After the LED next to the front camera light up, release the Power button immediately.
The LED lights up for some time (in my case, more than 30 seconds) and may blink, then turns off and the phone will light up the loading screen with the battery indicator at 0% (zero percent), and turns off again.
Pressing the power button again, just once, without keeping it pressed, the phone will not turn on, will remain off (not rule because he can light with the target load, it depends on the charge status of the battery). But do not worry, leave loading for a few minutes without stopping and soon the phone will light up indicating more or less a 5% (five percent) of battery charging.
Now most importantly, do not connect or disconnect the phone from the charger until you complete 100% (one hundred percent) of the battery charge. This undoubtedly is the crucial and most important point of this walkthrough. I repeat: do not remove the charger or plug in your cell before reaching 100% (one hundred percent).

OPO Not Charging and Battery Stuck at 50% After Water Damage

I entered a swimming pool with my OPO in my pocket. I immediately went and bought some rice. I wasn't able to open the back completely because I didn't have the tools to remove the SIM tray.
After a few days, I tried booting it and it showed a message that the battery was too low (pic) and then it would keep rebooting itself.
I thought that the battery was messed up, so I replaced it. Now it turns out that everything works perfectly fine (screen, speakers, camera), but the new battery (and maybe even the old one) does not seem to be charging. What's even more weird is that it will only show me that it is charged 50%.
The phone seems to recognize that it is connected to a power outlet. When turned off, I can click the Power-button once and see that it is "charging" and at 50%. When turned on, it does not appear anywhere that it is charging. No notification light, nothing on the status bar, and "50% - Not charging" in Settings>Battery (when plugged in) and "50% - approx. 12 hours" (when not plugged in). Also, in Settings>Battery>Battery optimization it says that "battery optimization not available" for Google Play Services.
I have obviously plugged the battery connector back in when I replaced the battery, but I don't know if I need to replace the Micro USB Port or not. It seems like it is recognizing when it is plugged in, but it's simply not charging.
What do you think I should do? Thank you!
Phone is off, plugged in to charger, battery is out - and when I click on the power-button it still tells me that it's charging and on 50%!?

I CAN NOT charge my smartphone Charge only off or Bootloader

I CAN NOT charge my smartphone Charge only off or
Bootloader is the way it recognizes correctly when connecting and disconnecting the usb cable
Android System Started
On with the USB Cable: Indicates the battery icon as charging but in the state of the phone "indicates you are not ****ting", so disconnect and disconnect the cable does not recognize
On without the USB Cable: Does not recognize anything, neither connect nor disconnect
Loading with the Off: load very slow; By moment turns on and off the screen and shows the logo and then the percentage of battery
same problem but solved finally
Switch off your phone/ let the battery drained to null(recommended)
Try to start your phone at 0% to drain battery.
Screen will show 0% or plug icon.
Then connect charger then , then switch on plug of charger.
After few minutes screen will show battery at 3%.
Let it charged without disturbing, it may take more time.
In my case it take 1-2 days to fully charged.
After fully charged, notification light will show on speaker, then disconnect charger and turn your phone on.
Hope this will solve your problem.
If not repeat same procedure.
***Never turn your phone on/restart while charging it may create the same problem***
If the problem not solved, uninstall or disable "charging related noise problem" system app.
Problem solved
After trying to solve the problem by placing different ROMs and until flashing the Firmware the solution was the following
As the only way to properly load the phone was by bootloader mode; Leave charging the phone that way about 5 hours lego ignited the equipment even charging and that way began normal operation the equipment

Dead GFlex2: get LG logo but no startup (or Recovery)

My LG G Flex 2 H950 was working fine, running google maps and playing music, plugged in to the car charger. Within minutes of leaving the car the phone was dead - I could not power it on. I can usually get it to show the LG logo by trying to start in Recovery Mode (holding the power and volume-down buttons for several seconds) but then the logo just disappears after a few seconds and the phone does not power on. But sometimes when I try this the red LED blinks on the phone screen and the logo may or may not appear. Sometimes (50%) when I plug the phone in to my Windows 10 desktop, the computer plays a tone to indicate a new device has been connected, but no icon appears in the list of hard drives or devices.
I think the battery is charging normally - when I connect the phone to a USB volt meter it usually (but not always) shows a normal amount of amperage flowing, and just now when I tried to start the phone it showed the battery charge icon on the phone screen (it doesn't usually do this) and showed 100% charge.
Is there anything else I can try, even if just to get the phone running long enough to backup my text messages etc?
Is there any way to test what's actually wrong? I'd hate to spend money on a new battery or charging port etc for a slim chance to temporarily fix a phone that seems like it's dying.
Thanks for any advice or suggestions...
Hey, i've got the same problem since today. i was watching youtube videos when the phone suddenly stopped working. did you already find the problem?
Sorry for my bad englisch ( Dutch)
No - not solved, phone still dead. Still would love to hear any advice...
I used to have the exact same problem as you - bootloops at the LG logo, no recovery etc. After some reading it seemed that the battery was the root of the problem, and after replacing the battery my phone was back to life - no issues ever since. I recommend you check if the battery is the issue by connecting it to a normal charger (i.e. not charging from a PC) and powering it on, by holding the power button at the battery charging screen. If it powers on normally then it's most likely a battery issue, which can be easily fixed. Cheers!

Phone bricked after batter replacement

I replaced the battery myself.
After finished, I trun on the phone, it vibrates once and the screen light up a little (hardly see it) but cannot boot. When I press and hold the power button, it turns off but on again automatically with the same phenomenon. What did I do wrong? I can charge the battery (the LED changed from yellow to green).
I had this to several times after changing battery. I had to disconnect the battery and connect it again every time it happened, not so funny opening the phone up every time...
After a few times it just started to work normal. Strange.

A very annoying "battery" problem

I have an old CUBOT P20 "chinaphone" with Android 8.0 that I want to use as an IP camera and I need it to stay always on.
I have removed the battery and attached the usb power supply directly to the battery terminals and it works fine.
But to my surprise when I turn on the phone, the battery percentage begins to drop and when it reaches zero it shuts down like it does when the battery get low.
How could it be possible? there is NO battery, it's just my usb power supply connected at the battery terminals!
The power supply has plenty of amps (it's not a charger) and it seems that Android has a built in "countdown" that starts regardless of the battery capacity and shuts the phone off.
If I disconnect and reconnect the power supply and then turn on the phone the percentage of the "battery" starts again from 100% and then begins to drop. This is extremely annoying because I need to leave the phone always on without interruptions.
Is there a way to disable this android function?
