dX constantly flickering "Disconnected" message when plugged in?

[drummer]

I've had my dX for a few weeks with no issues, but all the sudden when plugging in to the same charger I've used over and over, it keeps saying disconnected over and over. I even tried another charger and it repeated. Then, unplugging it completely still kept the "disconnected" message on the screen until a battery pull. Any ideas?

Sounds like you should try another cable. Take it into a VZW store and they should help you out no charge

Could be the battery. I'd take it to Verizon, with the charger, and see if they can put a different battery in it for the sake of testing. Hopefully, it's just the battery and you won't have to do a factory reset, or worse, send your phone back.

I've had my Droid X for over two years now and wanted to share some details on when this occurs to help the engineers solve this.

The Issue: When plugging in the Droid X, occasionally it will cycle between displaying the pop-up with the green leaf stating:

"Disconnected: Unplug your charger from the outlet to conserve energy"

When this occurs: I noticed this consistently happens when the battery is down to 15% or less when I plug it in. I'm also heavily using the phone to either download updates or using the GPS when in the car.

The Popups that won't go away on their own: The pop-ups will queue up on you if you leave the phone plugged in like this. It won't charge either.

Temporary Fix: The only temporary fix is to pull the battery, then plug in the phone without turning it on. Let the battery charge up to above 30% -- of course my battery will charge back up to 70% is less than an hour!

Fast Power Ups: One key to my fast power-up was using the USB charged of my Cyber Power travel surge strip. (I had no choice as it's the only way I can charge my phone.)

Hope this helps! I love the Droid and hope Google can make it even better now that they purchased Motorola Mobility (the makers of the Droid Android phones).

I've had this same ecact issue and it drives me nuts. My X won't stay plugged in if I plug anything into it, however it will stay plugged into my MOTO Dock without issue. So I carry my dock everywhere as well as my charge cord usb car/wall adapter, special battery charger with Xtra battery and my MOTO emergency charger with micro usb adapter that I put on it so I can use it with my X

It's Droidlynn & X, so have a Droid-X-tastic day in a world that doesn't, cuz Droid Does, and iPhone doesn't

I tried doing what Dan posted above but didn't work. So I just use my dock to charge it.if you don't have the MOTO Dock, you should be able to get a good deal off Amazon for one. I bought mine at best buy but I've heard you can get a good deal on Amazon. I don't trust ebay, cuz they often overcharge for shipping and I hate online autions just like I hate mean and disrespectfu people and Apple's iPhone.
