Hi everyone!
I have my galaxy S2 for almost a year now, and I never had a problem. A week ago, I saw on a widget that the temperature of my battery is -10°C. I first thought it was an system error, without any differences for my usual use. When I plugged my phone in, the phone said the battery is too cold, and the loading is suspended. My battery depleted. I bought a new one, and have the same problem. I didn't find anything on forums.
I'd add that I tried to update to the latest android version (4.0.3), wich brings nothing.
I've done a factory reset, it doesn't help me.
My phone is rooted, so I don't know if the support will be free for my phone...
Thanks a lot!

Hello
Yes yes i know i'm a noob, and i'm hated.. and i hate myself :/ lol but right now I need help! I've searched EVERYWHERE and was unable to find the solution soo...
I got my Samsung Galasy S II GT-I900G about a month ago, I've been turning it off every night so that It can charge. Like a week ago for some reason I didnt and in the middle of the next day the RAM got to about 560MB/0.91GB and then after a while it got stuck while i was sending an SMS. I had to take the battery out and and turn it on for it to start working again. I'm not that much of a hardcore gamer or phone user. I dont know why my phone would do this. I have deleted all my apps and still the same problem so its definetly not a leaky app. It gets stuck and then i have to take the battery out !
My phone has 2.3.4 android version
If you need any other information, let me know and i'll post it... But PLEASE help me.
I'm desperate here
I hope you've told the mods to remove your duplicate post ?

Which ROM and Kernel are you using?
Android is like Linux, so low ram=wasted resources. High ram is natural. Likely it is your rom or kernel that is to blame. You could also do a factory reset to see if it fixes it. Also, if you hold the power button for 10 seconds, it is the same as a battery pull, so you don't need to take the back (or case if you have one) off.

Hi all,
My Galaxy S II keeps crashing. The phone will just power off and the battery will drain right out and the only way to turn it back on is take the battery out then charge it again. Sometimes if I am quick and realised it has crashed I can take the battery out and turn it back on and the battery will have drained 30% in an hour.
Does anybody know why the phone might do this or is there a way I can track whether something in particular is crashing the phone via a log or something like that?
Thanks
Yes there are apps that can do that.
So whats the score.......are you on latest o2 or latest unbranded.
Post the about phone details lol.
Hi,
It is on the latest H3G UK firmware and is unlocked via the Galaxy S Unlock app by Helroz (so via nv_data.bin)
4.0.4
I91000NELP4
Build: IMM76D.XWLPY
Any ideas and what is the app called?
Thanks
Hello,
Just thought I would take this opportunity to join this thread since I have been suffering from a very similar (if not identical) problem on my S2 too. It's quite lengthy, apologise for that - hope to give as clear a picture as possible:
- S2 originally from vodafone contract, am now with giffgaff
- 1 year and 6 months old
- not rooted, have always used Samsung official firmware
- updated to ICS 4.0.4 about a month ago(?)
- Kernel version 3.0.15-1056084, build number: IMM76D.BULPG
I must say I can't be certain if the random crashes started (it would sometimes heat up really hot, or sometimes not warmed up at all), phone will just turn off. Can't turn back on without taking battery out and re-inserting.
Similarly, the battery level will drop by 30+% once the battery is re-inserted.
Have experienced once where it started up in "safe mode" and although everything was still there, the apps I have put in folders were all listed cos the folders were gone. Restarted and it wasn't in safe mode anymore, but had to create new folders and sort my apps again.
The random turn offs can happen every few days, or twice a day. Don't know why it happens.
I haven't installed many new apps (some are by japanese developers but worked fine before and after I updated firmware), asked at a Vodafone store and they suggested it could be a battery problem. (offered to send it off for repair, but will take 7-10days and factory reset, which I want to avoid...)
So bought and changed a new battery (from Samsung website) which looked good (no random shut downs for a week) but it all started again last night. So it's not the battery.
Suspected it's most probably software problems.
After upgrading to 4.0.4 firmware, the phone cannot display phone serial number/network etc etc under the "legal information" in settings.
The battery log seems funny too, I would re-insert battery and restart, the battery log will still show it's been on battery for 20+hours.
I've also spotted that there're 2 OS running when looking at the battery log - when I upgraded from gingerbread to ICS, I did not do a factory reset (is that absolutely necessary?) but phone has been working perfectly for a few months after the upgrade so I thought nothing of it....
I wanted to post a screenshot but not allowed cos I'm new to forum... =(
Is it because there're 2 OS so it's clashing...?
Since I haven't rooted, I'm not sure what I can do - last resort is to wait until JellyBean rolls out from Samsung and factory reset when I upgrade?!
Hope I've given enough info to get help easier.
PS: Kies is testing my temper. Tried to solve the "this device is not supported by KIES" problem by reinstalling whilst not connected to internet, kind of worked, allowed me to backup small files (such as call logs) but when it comes to big bits e.g. photos, it will show the "unexpected error" message again.....
also got "wssyncmlnps has stopped" on my phone...
ARGH!!! just wana backup my stuff before it completely turns into a brick!

Glad to know it is not just me. I'm hoping I can get an app that will log what is going on right up until crash time!

So glad it is not just me. I'm hoping I can use an app to log what is going on when crash time happens. Can someone tell me what the app is called please?

you should go to the store where you brought it and ask for service ( if you have warranty ) - to have your warranty again flash the original jellybean.
Just flash the original image and check again. If still happens go to the store asking service.
If not happens which means it's the rooted ROM issue. try another ROM special for S500.
Thanks guys,
I done this last night it came with ICS I updated it with official update from Acer web to JB reset everyhting on phone back to JB with the update file again so I am no longer rooted and have no battery, tuner or cpu apps on phone - Seems to have been fine since 7pm last night...
Bootloader or anyhting wasent unlocked so will see how to go if it lasts tonight again.
Will be back with questiones on unlocking the bootloader and using custom roms soon
Cheers,
Alright then. Description of my problem first I guess. I was not at home and running out of battery on my S2, but play store asked me to update some application so I agreed. After this I got the message that my phones internaly storage was running low, and keep in mind that I had near to no battery life (like 5%) and was not near any sort of charge point. I tried to access the applications page, to delete some apps that I never used and when I did my phone randomly and crazily got stuck and switched off. I'm assuming it somehow drained the 5% battery life I had left.
I got home thinking I could just switch on my phone and delete some applications that I wasn't using...that was 2 days ago...I can't even get past the samsung splash screen. It goes on a horrible boot loop and I've just about tried everything apart from hard resetting and I don't want to do that as I haven't backed my phone up recently...
If anyone knows any other methods, could you please please help? I would really appreciate it if I could keep my files and just enter my phone to delete a couple applications...which I'm assuming is the problem.
What have you tried? What firmware do you have? More info would be nice :thumbup:

yay for quick replies. I have tried cold booting, and soft resetting...I also went into recovery and cleared the cache partition to see if it would help and so far nothing... I have absolutely no idea what firmware I have and I have no idea how to check. I never tried to root my phone or install other roms.
OK so if you have no idea what firmware you was on don't reset Cuz if you was on 4.0.4 kiss good by to your phone. Was it ICS or jb? Do you know this? Pull battery out leave for a bit "5 mins" and try again. If that don't work and your not sure on firmware you need Odin to replace firmware yes data will be lost. Can you get to download mode?
Hello everyone and thanks for the great site/forum!
So I finally rooted my good old Samsung Galaxy S2 and also flashed CM 11 Nightly (Kit Kat) on it. And I did the battery calibration as well.
The problem is that after I did this the phone was ok for about a week but then started to shut down without a reason all by itself. If it's connected to a charger it's fine but without it the problem occurs.
I've tried factory reset and clearing both caches. Didn't help.
I've read about the issue and it seems that this is nothing new with Android phones. But I haven't had this problem at all before I flashed a new ROM to my phone. Is there anything you think I should try? Are there any ROM's that are more stable than CM 11?

Try using a new battery. They are cheap online. Sounds like the phone isn't getting enough power without the charger

You think that might be the solution? Well, I might as well give it a try because I've never changed the battery on my phone. It's gotten pretty bad in the two years I've had the phone but I just haven't gotten around changing because I'm not sure which places sell authentic Samsung batteries. I guess Google knows, I'll ask them.
Thanks a lot for the reply!

To add on to this, a genuine battery is the one you want There are many on ebay (In my country) and online too. Just make sure to research whether they are the real deal or not.
