Default Phone stuck on charging logo after charging it turned off

Hey guys!

My phone died on me yesterday since I forgot to charge it the day before, it was dead in my pocket for 3 hours until I got home.

Without bothering to do anything, I simply plugged my dead phone into the charger and went to bed. I woke up today, unplugged it from the charger and the phone stayed with the charging symbol stuck, I pressed the power button and nothing so I had to make a battery pull to get it to turn on.

Any issue to what could have caused this? also any interesting battery saving tips? sprints crappy 3g network in my area is draining the battery quickly so I turned off mobile data.

EDIT: Snap, I think this belongs in the Q&A section sorry mods

forcing 2g mode should help.
you can also get a spare battery


letting a lithium battery drain to 0 reduces its life.

Not sure what could have happened to make your phone get stuck at boot when charging.

As far as battery saving tips, there are tons all over these forums, but it really depends on what you are willing to give up as far as features in order to save battery. You can always turn down screen brightness, turn off WiFi/Bluetooth/3G, uninstall battery-hogging apps, turn off sync and background data etc.. Its all about finding a good balance though.

That's a sign of either:

dirty usb port, clean it.
Faulty or going faulty usb port.
Sometimes Rom, kernel issue.
