Root Need some help (hopefully not bricked)

I was installing Tranquility 3.7 and like an idiot I didn't have the battery all the way charged. I did have Liberty 1.0 running fine before and saw that TBH had a release so I figured I'd give it a shot since I paid for their app. Went into Clockwork and did a restore of an old recovery (plain Motorola's 2.3.340 rooted) and wiped data and cache after that recovery.

Well, the phone shuts off in the middle of install, reboots and gets stuck at the Motorola logo. I can get into the bootloader but it says the battery is too low to program. I've tried leaving the phone plugged into my computer and the green LED is on, but then the phone tries to boot up and gets stuck on the Motorola logo for awhile and then shuts back off to the green LED.

I did borrow a wall charger from someone at work and the phone just seems to be sitting on the Motorola logo. Is the phone actually charging here or do I need to get a different battery and do the SBF? I don't know anyone that has this phone.
 
you can't charge the battery without being booted... get or borrow another battery (charged)
 
Thanks Steve. I figured this was the case. I will try to stop at Verizon after work tonight and see if they can charge my battery for me. I've heard people saying you can take the battery to verizon and have them charge it up.

good idea!
 
Went to Verizon and waited around an hour and a half to get the battery charged. Needless to say, I'm back up and running.
