Yea I've tried two different chargers so I don't think that its the charger.

Well, if you haven't done anything to it, you could get it warrantied. I don't think it needs to be sbf'd and

it wont sbf if the battery isn't charged above 50% anyway I believe. Did you try your friends battery?

Ohhh, most likely. Depends on how knowledgeable the person who is looking at it is.

Have you been running that ROM for a month no problem? Or was it recently put on?

Well thats my only suggestion, sorry. You have to have it fully charged before doing anything drastic to

get it back to stock. Try something real quick, if its allowing you to power on at least. Hold your camera

button, volume buttons at the same time and then hold power button down. When it flashes, release all

and see if it goes into your bootloader. It will be a black screen with some words in white on the left.

Bootloader 30.04
Battery OK
OK to Program Connect USB Data Cable

Oops. My last instructions on what I wanted you to try, you have to have power OFF before holding

those buttons and trying that.

Ok, thats where you will go if you need to sbf later. Hit the power button and it will shut back off

from there. But you can't start an sbf if you don't know where your battery level is. This is the

problem. If you start the sbf and battery isn't charged you can run into more serious issues.

So you bootloader isn't showing an error, which is good. But when it says "Battery OK" it doesn't

mean "Battery Full" and it doesn't show the level of it. Are you on Gingerbread or Froyo?

Oh, if your on Gingerbread, hit the both volume keys when your at the Droid with the /!\. See if that does anything.
