3rd party battery not charging after update

[Cururipur]

I just updated my Droid X phone with the froyo 2.2 update.

I have been using 2 batteries to power my phone.
OEM battery works fine but the second battery will power the phone but will not charge using the phone now.

When I try to charge it displays can not recognize battery insert OEM battery.

I contacted motorola and their response was the following:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I'm sorry to hear that. I can imagine that must be frustrating. Have you tried refreshing the phone by removing the battery for a minute? You can also perform a Factory Data Reset on the phone if that would not resolve the issue.

If you continue to experience issues, performing a Factory Data Reset will clear the phones memory and put the phone back to the original factory default state. Factory Data Reset is a tool used to remove everything that was imported, added or installed on the device. Keep in mind, when using this feature; everything is deleted. Nothing stored on the MicroSD will be affected. Your contact and email information is automatically backed up to the Gmail server. Your information will be restored when you login with your user name and a password.

From the home screen of your phone, tap the home key.
Tap Settings.
Scroll down and tap Privacy.
Scroll down and tap Factory Data Reset.
Tap Reset Phone.

If the phone would still exhibit the same issue after the reset, all Motorola phones and accessories have a standard 1 year warranty, barring any physical or liquid damage, from the date of purchase. What we can offer you is repair for the phone.

Has anyone else experience this issue with their battery?
I really don't want to set it back to factory setting unless I know it will work.

Thanks

Same thing with my Motodroid X - after the 1st update my aftermarket batteries are no longer recognized, nor will the phone recharge them.

Fortunately I have a separate charger so I just keep the two aftermarket batteries charged and with me....just in case.

Must use OEM batteries. I don't like this BUT, 95% of aftermarket batteries are garbage.

you might be able to get it working with that battery reset thing in clockworkmod. It's in the advanced area - people use it to make their batteries that aren't charging fully work again.

I don't know anything about it so don't ask me, just throwing it out there.
