Lol, what are even trying to imply?
Anyways, this might be relevant: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/introducing-the-unbrickable-captivate/
It's not ace but it's a phone made by samsung which (might)mean that they are similar at some points. And I dont know if they are actually able to boot it without the battery itself.
"it seems that he has managed to get the device to become bootable via either USB, UART, or even MMC."
TL;DR: no, but might be possible in the future.

Zeppelinrox has a weird way to calibrate the battery. It involves booting without battery if I don't remember wrongly.

Anyone with ACE tried this??
I tried the method but didn't work.

Umm... no. Its not. For it to happen to a lot of people on different roms and kernels? You really think its a kernel issue?
It's probably an issue with cwm and it's also probably related to the type of kernel. To say the truth, I don't think it's that big a deal. It has posed no real problems to me when flashing, and if anything, removing the battery will do the trick. A minor inconvenience in an otherwise perfect tool.
yes, i encountered this issue too. I wonder how to turn off phone from recovery without take out battery
But NOT big deal for me

Its not a big deal, but its annoying. You'll have to wait till your phone boots to be able to turn it off. Taking off the case, then taking off the battery cover and taking out the battery is a lot of work to just turn your phone off.

You are completely right. However, it's a free tool.
I mean, even the stock Samsung firmware gives Fc and issues every now and then and they do get paid by us users (both on acquisition and through Google adds, and free marketing data)

While you are new here, please follow forum rules as they are in place to ensure regularity for all users alike.
what ROM and Kernel are you using? checked OC settings? any additional apps running in the background without your knowledge? any recent apps you have installed?

How to check if apps are running without my knowledge?
Yes there are many apps I recenly got!
Get better battery stats from the play store, and let it run for a charge cycle.
Also turn off all the silly Samsung stuff like face awake etc etc
Does a reboot help?

This kind of thing is nearly always a rogue process, just a matter of getting to know your new os and learning its ins and outs

Hi.
I had the same problem with one SGS3 from two I bought.
The one worked fine, but the second restart twice and more a day. I changed it in the shop. But the problem was still there. The akku was hot and after 2 hours without any input the akku was 0%.
I changed the phone the second time in the shop.
But also this device had the problems, sometimes the phone doesn't see the akku.
Then I had the idea, I looked into the device pressed the akku with my thumbnail and the akku worked.
With a little paper I fix the akku and everything is fine until today.

Put a piece of paper somewhere in the battery slot to prevent phone from random rebooting?
Is this a good solution? I'd suggest to claim your warranty.

Hello,
I have the following problem and I'm wondering if it is solvable:
My Galaxy S2 (actually from a friend) was rooted and working fine on ICS.
Then I wanted to install a custom rom (Resurrection Remix 3.0.9 Jelly Bean).
It is not my first time doing this as I've did it a multiple times on my own S2.
The same ROM is working fine on my own S2.
Somewhere around 50% of installation, the phone turned itself off.
We did make sure that the battery was fully charged before proceeding with the installation.
Now I cannot Start it.
Can't enter Recovery Mode.
Can't enter Download Mode.
The screen just remains black as if there is no battery in it.
Swapped battery, but still same issue.
It doesn't even show the charging animation when power cable is plugged in.
I have ordered a USB JIG to put it in Download Mode from MobileTechVideos.com but I don't think this will work because there is no sign of life.
It is obviously hard bricked.
What could I do to fix this problem?
Thank you
Sad to say but you have to avail JTAG services to sort this out
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
Which method did you use? Also, do you have your firmware/baseband/version of ICS the phone was running when this happened? If its the emmc brickbug, dont waste your money on a jig or JTAG. Neither will be of any use.

There's no solution. Insert he battery and wait for a bit. If it starts to heat up a lot around the camera, I'm sorry to say the phone is utterly useless from now on. Only a motherboard replacement will help.

That's not very good news but at least I know now.
btw yes, it was ICS 4.0.4
I've rooted a couple of android phones without any trouble.
I honestly didn't know that this bug existed even though I searched on the net for the risks before I started it.
I guess Samsung will not fix this under warranty?

Thats why everyone keeps screaming to read up before rooting, mate. Its kinda hard to miss, every third thread seems to have a mention of it. And a sticky in the general section.
Anywho, whats done is done. Bad luck I guess. If you're under warranty, theres hope yet. You can take it to them saying it randomly died out and you have no idea how or why. Since the motherboard is toast, they have no way of figuring out you rooted it (or tried to). Say it happened when you kept it to charge or something. You could get lucky. :fingers-crossed:
Use the thanks button instead of typing out a post.
Hope it works out. Good luck. :good:
If your still under warrenty they usually repair it for you, had mine repaired recently. they will replace the motherboard. Good Luck

Could be your battery, maybe is damaged.

try flashing a diff kernel (may be Dorimanx v7.22) and then see for the issue
Hi, sorry for breaking in into other people's thread, but I've been getting terrible battery life and random crashes. I tried severeal different rom/kernel/baseband/android versions combinations and always had the phone dying on me. The weird part was that it only happened when the phone was not plugged in. When it was charging, this problem would not happen at all.
Well, after your post about the battery damage I checked mine and it indeed seems a little bigger than normal. Do you think its possible that a damaged battery could cause it?

Amazed the more experienced members who have replied to this thread thus far have missed the obvious & not suggested the OP install BetterBatteryStats. Something weird is causing that drain, I'm not understanding why you'd suggest someone go out & buy a new battery in the first instance when there's nothing outwardly physically wrong with the battery.
OP - Install BetterBatteryStats, have a look at the thread on here to get an idea of what kind of info/screenshots you need to post to that thread for someone there to help you out. Then do exactly that.

Thanks a lot Sir... Appreciate it... I was actually going to the store rite now to buy a new battery...

YW I'm not saying you'll definitely be able to track down what's causing the drain with BBS, but it's certainly worth a try before you fork out $ for a new battery (especially given your phone is still usable in the meantime). If you end up not being able to find anything with BBS, then you go buy a new battery.
I repalced my battery after one yeat
But I can say tham I am heavy user
The reson I replaced it it was give me a mad reading some times up some times down with no app causing battery drian
Tell my phone begin to shut down when using any app want cpu higher frequencies
So I get new one cause when keep it on charge and use it nothing occur
I suggest you to get a new battery
And charge it well before use
Then let him drop about 15
Then make full charge
And dont let him get down 40

Hello,
I know this is an old thread, but I was wondering if you managed to know what was the problem? If so, how did you solve it?
I'm experiencing something similar, but after reading a lot of threads it seems that no one knows what is the problem.
For me it started after deleting the battery stats (I know it doesn't make sense) and reflashing a ROM ( I was using the ROM before without a problem). Oh well, let me know how it went for you.
Cheers.
