"Unauthorized Charger" I have owned a Motorola Razor for over 2 years and I have not had a problem until yesterday. I tried to charge my phone and it gave an "unauthorized charger" message and now my phone will not charge. How do I fix the problem?

Most likely the charger that you bought is not original motorola charger. I would go and buy original motorola brand.

hello,

from explanation this means that you are trying to charge your razor with another phone charger , it will not work out for them self because they are not compatible .

what you need to get your razor phone is the type of his own charger ,but if you can not fine it own charger then you will have to go the store together with your razor phone then will help in locating it own charger that will work for with out any damage on your phone

thank you and thanks for using fixya.

try taking out the sim and blow the stuff out of it. Then put it back together and see what happens

The "unauthorized charger" message is hence telling you that the power
output of your charger is significantly lower than a Motorola charger
would provide. It may or may not still charge the phone, you'll have
to try it to see. If it does charge the phone it will take longer to
do so than a higher power charger would.

Hope this helps. =)

u have to turn off ur phone and then put the charger on..thts another way to fix it ..it can be any charger..u have to turn off ur phone then put the charger on

There may be a problem with your charger output. Do you have another charger you could try?

A temporary workaround is to reboot the phone with the charger still attached. It should now say "Authorized" and start charging.

ya try 2 change ur charger. or it got problem inside with ur charger circut. try getting external battery charger frm market. so thatur one battery can be carged and another u can use it

COULD BE THE PHONE BUT MOST LIKELY ITS THE CHARGER, IF ITS AFTERMARKET GET RID OF IT AND BUY OEM, TRY AND TEST IT OUT WOULD A FREINDS MOTOROLA CHARGER SINCE THEY'RE MOSTLY THE SAME CHARGERS AND SEE IF YOU STILL GET THE MESSAGE.

Does it say something like "charger not recognized". I remember having this problem with my razor, and it drove me crazy for several days, then it went away and has never returned. I may have also blasted all the txt messages away to help fix it to. Killing all the txt messages seems to help this phone if its acting up. Definitely speeds up the menu operation. Apparently 250 txt messages is its capacity, even though it will store alot more.

If the charger is not an original motorola charger,, then you have a problem. make sure its original.
