I just switched to an i9100 and gave my wife my old i777. I restored this phone back to stock rooted. The problem at first the phone would reboot when trying to turn it off, also when putting the battery back in it would automatically turn on. Now i pulled the wifes phone off the charger, it was fully charged and had the full charge notification. After the phone had been unplugged from the charger for 10mn the full charge notification was still in the status bar. I tried turning the phone off and it would not even reboot this time, just this weird loop, see vid http://youtu.be/PKyYhXhu4zY

Ok here is my problem, only started recently, was rooted and romed but when I connected the charger it was going on charge and off charge, even without moving the cable, so I thought there was a problem, tried it with a new/different cable and it was fine for a while, tried it on the computer and it worked great, but at that point I decided to go back to total stock in case I need to send it back,while trying to use ODIN it was on and off every few seconds (so the problem came back even on the computer), the phone was sat completely still, anyway I finally used used triangle away, and after many disconnections while flashing back to stock through odin, my phone seemed fined for a few days at least.
Now last night I put on to charge as usual, and I woke up this morning with my battery on 48% and my screen lit up, it had been lit up all night, (and no the option to keep the screen awake is not enabled) so my phone didn't charge and the screen was on, now I tried this on a car charger and another computer and it wont put the screen to sleep until I press the sleep button also its on/ff charge all the time
Any Ideas other than a loose Micro usb female connection in the phone?
I haven't applied the OTA update, so my phone's on the stock ROM that came before the new one. I have rooted the phone, but it worked fine until today. It died last night and I put it on the charger, but this morning it wouldn't turn on. Now that I have it plugged in, the front LED blinks steadily, and when I hold down the power button or power+volume down buttons, the lower LED bar blinks, but the phone won't turn on. Could something have gone wrong if it tried to automatically install the OTA update while I wasn't using it? Or is there another way to fix this? The problem occurs whether the phone is plugged in or charging wirelessly.
Edit: Solved. The phone booted when I tried again. I still have no idea why it wouldn't work though; I left it on the wireless charger all night, so it should have charged then, but it could have moved off of it. Today it took a solid 10 minutes plugged in to the computer to charge enough to boot. Is that normal? Shouldn't it just use the charging energy to boot?
Hi There,
I had put my phone on charge the other night, everything was fine and it was happily charging away. I wakeup in the morning and see a notification on my phone. I unplug my phone the battery then shows 1% and turns off. I then did the smart thing of removing the battery for 5 seconds, putting it back in, turning it on and it turnt on but with 0%. I then put the phone back on charge.
This is where it gets interesting yet annoying. The phone flashes a red light whilst charging, it then goes to boot up showing the sony ericsson logo and then just turns off and repeats itself. I have had the phone on "charge" for an hour but to no avail of anything working. I am unable to connect via usb as the port to re-flash the phone as when it was repaired for some reason it has never connected via usb again.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
A few days ago my phone got soaked through my pants as I was working in the rain. I came home, dried it out, etc. and tried to turn it on. Wouldn't turn on, so I started charging it. I eventually got it to turn on and it seemed to be working fine except for some reason it said the battery life was at 0 %. Note that it was still working normally otherwise.
I went into recovery, made a backup, and did a factory reset to see if that would fix the problem. It didn't, so I restored the backup. Now the phone won't turn on at all.
When plugged in, it shows the charging battery symbol, and if you hold power to turn the phone on it will sometimes begin to start, but it gets to the boot animation and simply stays there forever (I've left it at the boot animation for several hours to no effect). If I try to boot into recovery it simply does not work; it will either just restart the battery charging animation or boot normally (and then get stuck on the boot animation).
In a last ditch effort, I was going to try to flash a stock ROM from Heimdall. However, I plugged my phone in and tried to enter download mode and was greeted with the error: "LOW BATTERY!! CAN'T DOWNLOAD!!." This was after charging the phone all night. I then proceeded to charge the phone for another hour then try again, to the same error. And now here I am. It seems the problem is that my phone will charge, and the battery will be full but for some reason the phone doesn't recognize that the battery has a charge, so it just thinks it's at 0%. I've tried a different battery and was unsuccessful. Is there any way that I can either force my phone to enter download mode or somehow get it to recognize the charge on the battery? Or is there some other way I could resolve this? Or is my phone simply gone for good?
I am (was) running a rooted I777 with Slim Bean ROM ( I believe v8) 4.2.
Have you tried using a JIG it can be an option
If a JIG doesn't work you can try removing the battery, then plug the phone to the PC and go to download.
But for me the problem is with the battery. If after flashing the ROM you get the same results, don't think it and BUY A NEW BATTERY.
Good luck.

Hello everyone!
As title says ,my samsung galaxy II (CM12.1 flashed) doesn't give any signs of life.
Here is the story:
I turned off my phone this morning and plugged in charger.After hour i plugged off charger from my phone and tried to turn it on.As it was turning on it got stuck on samsung logo.Afterwards i went into recovery mode and wiped /cache.Everything was fine.Then i went to "factory reset" where problem occured...while it was deleting /data it got stuck.Few minutes later my phone suddenly turned off.After that moment it just won't turn on.I tried to get into recovery and download mode but phone doesn't react.When i plug in charger it doesn't react neither. Battery was at 50% when i tried to turn it on.
Before this, phone was running fine. But recently it was freezing a lot so i had to take off batery and put it back in.
Im not native english speaker so don't get mad on my "perfect" english
I hope someone will help me diagnose the problem
Thank you
Goodmorning.
....the same here..... sadly.
This is what I know regarding that unable to turn phone back on problem, perhaps can solve yours.
We know the S2 i9100 (and maybe the other variants too) has "problem" with battery levels. In my case, it won't surprise when I got (for example) 48% then drops drastically to 3% after reboot. The problem sometimes also occur when I reboot to system from recovery.
Regarding to your problem, try to recharge your S2 until 100% (in this case, phone is off completely), unplug the charger, then turn it on by holding the power button.
If the phone still won't turned on, try this tips as it always working for me. Plug the charger and try to turn the phone on (holding the power button). If the phone just go back to battery indicator screen (sometimes the screen will blinking once), here the problem.
From here, you need to see what kind of battery indicator image shown on the screen. If the image is a battery indicator with round progress inside it (and doesn't change no matter how long you expect to it), you need to press and hold the power button to restart. Repeat this until you got the image with battery indicator with ACTUAL battery level and bar shown. When you see this, unplug your charger, wait until the screen is completely off, then holding the power button to turn on the phone. In my case, this is always work.
If for some reason you never get the correct battery indicator screen after many tries, try to remove the battery off, wait for at least 15 seconds, put it back on, then try the procedure again.
Hope that help.
