My Droid 3 battery died last night and so when I got home I plugged it in to the wall. The Motorolla dual core technology screen comes on but nothing more than that. I left it plugged in all night last night and had that same screen this morning. I have tried a battery pull already.

is your battery actually dead? are you pluging it into a wall or computer? if the phone is off when charging does it show the battery meter?

To see the meter you press the power button once. Sorry I didn't see you said earlier it was the wall.

If you have a car charger then I suggest putting it on that for 10 minutes or so. It charges at a different voltage. Slightly higher than a wall charger. That should do the trick

What happens if you plug it into the wall open the keyboard, and hold s(safe mode) and then hold power do u ever get the boot screen animation? And if that doesn't work can u get into the recovery by holding x instead of s?
