[Q] galaxy s2 won't start unless pluged in and stops randomly - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi guys.kinda need advice. I had this s2 for 2 days, ran beautifully, benchmarks and all, gave it the works. I installed root and installed custom roms, everything went super. I was on Resurrection-remix_ics_V2.1_AOKP-B37-4.0.4 and installed SPB.Mobile.Shell.v3.5.3.Build.9885 and I was out with my daughter. I made some photos (by the way I applied the patch for the camera from resurrection) and at one time I was taking a photo and my phone turned off instantly.
after that i rebooted, it was ok, even the poto tat I made was saved but after a while when I tried to take another photo it turned off again, this time when I tried to reboot got stuck on resurrection logo. I turned it off and tried to flash the rom again on the spot.I must have had about 80% battery. Nothing. it started to turn of as soon as Samsung logo came on. Scince than I flashed about 8 times a few custom roms and 1 original for my country. I got it to turn on (today) but it turns on completely only if I keep it pluged in (comp. or wall socket) and if I try to run demanding applications it turns of. what could it be....a voltage problem of the batt, or cpu wise? I really need help. Thx If any additional info is required I will provide it.

Hey, instead of creating another thread, I'll just post in here.
My SGH-i777 was working fine, I downloaded the latest Update CM9 Nightlies 2012-06-09 directly from CM's download site. I was previously running CM9 Nightlies 2012-06-03.
I put the Update in the root of the internal SD memory. I started up ROManager, and selected the "Flash ROM Update" option. The Phone shut off, as normal, so it can go into Recovery Mode and Flash the Update automatically.
The phone never got into the Recovery Menu! I waited for about 5 mins, but nothing was booting up on the screen.
So I removed the battery and inserted it back in to turn it back on. It shows the Galaxy SII Splash Screen and then the screen turns off, and it just keeps flickering on and off. You cant see the flickering unless your in a dark room, in the daylight you won't notice it, because the backlight turns on for a split second and its really faint.
So I ruled out that its not that the battery has died, because before I started up ROManager the battery was full.
Anyways, can you guys help me? Thanks in advance!

You obviously read nothing before trying to flash otherwise you would have known not to use rom manager unless you're on CM9 already
Edit : okay you were already on CM9 but you still should stay away from rom manager, it's not known for being reliable
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
What kernel were u using prior to trying to update and did u flash the correct version of Rom manager? I know last time ilooked there were multiple options for the i777.

If it's not reliable, why does CM9 come with it installed on its ROMs?
And I've used it a few times before and never had a problem with it. Also like I said, if it's so unreliable, I'm sure the devs over at CM would have taken it out of their ROMs...

I was using the Siyah Kernel made for the SGH-i777. And the latest version of Rom Manager.
Edit: The thing im confused about is I didn't flash anything yet and it just stopped working. I would understand that if I flashed something and in the middle of flashing it stopped working then that's completely different.

I've always had problems trying to flash from ROM Manager. Always boot into CWM manually when flashing. If you can't get it into download mode and see it in Odin, you may be screwed. There's a another way to get into download mode...something like removing the battery, connect to PC via USB cable, then hold volume buttons down while inserting the battery...or something. I searched and couldn't find it again.

Big is right . Best to boot into cwm manually, I've had problems with using Rom manager to do it as well, the few times I've used it. Also, Im 99% sure Rom manager comes built into cm itself, as a system app for all cm releases. So i don't think they stick it in there for just our device or anything. But i could be wrong.

I've updated from Update-CM9-Nightlies-2012-06-03 to Update-CM9-Nightlies-2012-06-05 before and went smooth. Anyways, I guess ROM Manager might be unstable. That sucks for me!

I can't get into Download Mode or Recovery Mode. Like I said I didn't even get a chance to try and Flash anything, I was about to backup my current ROM and while RM was booting into Recovery Mode, its like it just froze on a black screen.
IDK if its a Hardware Problem or my Mother Board got fried somehow cause the screen turns on and shows "Samsung Galaxy SII" and then it just turns off. And in the daylight it looks like the phone is off, but if your in a dark room, you can see the screen's backlight flickering on and off.
Do you guys think that USB Jig will work?
Thanks guys for you help!
EDIT: BTW, I'm now stuck using a crappy WP7! It was my step-sons, LOL. It is like a watered down smart phone... I don't even think it deserves the title "Smart Phone".
Pull the battery and leave it out. Then go into download mode the usual way by holding the two volume buttons and plugging in the USB cable. The phone wil go into download mode with power supplied by the cable. If this fails, then there is definitely some serious problem, and hardware can not be ruled out as a possible cause.

Thanks!!!!! Your a life saver! I plugged it into the phone charger and held the Vol. Down Button and it was able to boot into Download Mode and the screen did not shut off like it has been on every boot up I've tried!
Right bow I'm charging it so I can plug it into my laptop and restore my phone later tonight after work.
This is my first Android and even though it kinda crapped out on me, I still love it better than the iPhone.
Thanks again!

[Q] HELP! My galaxy s2 randomly shuts down!.

I've been experiencing a random shut down on my phone since i started using custom roms. Ive been using Resurrection Remix (currently 2.3) and this problem has always been there. I already do the 4 wipes before installing the new versions (to have a clean install) so i dont think the wipes will help me here. Another thing i noticed is that when it shuts down, it gets REALLY hot until i power it on by pressing on the power button for about 5 seconds. Also the battery drops drastically. So please tell me what could solve the problem!.

Please excuse the rediculous response above me, this person obviously has some superiority issues they need to deal with, Now, the most reason for phones getting hot like this is that you possible have a misbehaving application or some files left over on your sd card from a previous rom.
The most common problem when installing a new rom is that the roms have different file structures and so when you install a new rom this file structure incompatibillity causes issues. You need to wipe and format both internal sd card and external storage. Best do that from recovery, go into storage options and then format sd card, format mmc.
Now, connect your phone to your pc via usb. Now in recovery mount sd card, mount system. Now transfer your Rressurection rom.zip to sd card. Now unmount sd card, unmount system and then disconnect usb from pc. Now flash the zip from recovery. After the rom.zip has been flashed, go and reboot system. Once you reboot system and your phone boots up, give it +-5 minutes just to settle before you configure everything. All should now be mellow. If it is not just give me pm and I will personally try to assist you. And if that fails, we can always hookup skype and I can see your phone via webcam and diagnose the issues directly.
Please know that what the above person said by no way reflects the general attitude at xda, most people are kind and helpful and try to make the world a better place. Good Luck bro and I hope you come right.

Hey bro, thanks a lot for ur help! .. about wiping and formatting, doesnt that mean i'll lose all the stuff on my phone? *pictures,music, apps etc..* ?
Yes formatting will erase everything, so save your stuff first.
Also I say first flash a New ICS stock ROM using Odin, or just the modem, as I find modem and kernel Both responsible for heat issues

I'll revert back to resurrection remix 2.2 as it uses cm9 kernel.. if it works fine then i'll know it's the kernel problem.
Oh, btw i use Titanuim back up to back up my apps.. if i copy the titanium back up folder on my computer then format the sd card then put it again, will it work properly and restore my apps again?

Bro it is not what you say but how you say it, you are being self righteous, arrogant and your attitude basically stinks. Remember others are also just starting up and insensitive unsubstantiated comments like yours makes them feel really bad. How would you like it if someone responded to your innocent question with, just dont flash a custom rom.
Oh, you know what, forget about it people like you are incapable of showing intellect, compassion, understanding and an evolved sense of decorum. You my friend will get what you deserve sooner or later, because what you dish out comes back 10 fold. End of Lesson.

Galaxy S2 Random Shut down
I am experiencing a similar problem, though my issue is with the official 4.0.3 build.
I'm running 4.0.3 on Galaxy S2 (UK), phone is crashing randomly, only way to turn it back on is to remove battery and start again. On my 2nd handset as I've sent it in for repair once, got given a replacement hand set, due to them damaging my original handset (another story), only had this 2nd handset a week and same thing has started happening again.
Is anyone else having this problem, I'm starting to think it's the ICS 4.0.3 build, not playing nice. Any suggestions?
Thank you all in advance for your help.

[Q] Hard brick Samsung Galaxy SII

Hi, i'm a new user of SG SII, and i don't know much about it. I was trying to install new ROM on it, first I tried to unroot my phone with CF ROOT, after that everthing was OK. Then i tried to install REVOLT JB i9100 ver 2.8.2, when i got by CWM in recovery, instead of clicking wipe data, then cache and ccache partition i did: wipe data/factory reset, and wipe cache partition, wipe dalwik cache and format system. I flashed kernel and during ROM installation phone turned off and did turn on. i think it's hard bricked. I don't know what to do, please help.
Are you still able to get into don't download mode o your phone ? ( volume down, home key, power button )
If so, reflash your kernel and go from there.
Also have a look at CyanogenMod, they have a good post with instructions on here.

no, phone doesn.t response on anything, even if i'm charging the battery.
Try removing your battery and unplug cables.
Then try download or recovery mode again.
If it really doesnt work then there is probably something fried on your system board, doubt anything you can do about it as i had the same not that long ago out of the blue.

You can always tell them that you were updating via kies and it dropped dead just like that.
Your battery was low when you tried to flash it, wasn't it?
try a jig first tho; there's something fishy about those wipes you mentioned.

On some occasions flashing a device can use 40-50% of battery to prep and flash device which is why its advised to never flash your phone unless you have at least 50-60% battery.
If power cuts out during flashing procedure it can damage nand/ic chip, corrupt bootloader, corrupt sdcards etc.
After leaving it plugged into to charger overnight try a USB jig to see if you can get it to wake up in download mode, If you can re-flash rom and go from there.

From what you described, it couldn't have hard bricked your phone. In fact, it isn't easy to hard brick our phone unless you install that infamous ICS 4.0.4 leaked ROM or mess with flashing of PIT file. Try to use another fully charged battery to boot up or go into CWM recovery.

while i was installing new rom, process was like 0% for about 5 minutes, and then phone just turned off. When i did flashing and installing CWM everything was ok. I rooted it with CF root.
Exact same problem here. Followed the root guide to the letter and all OK. Set omega rom installing and it stayed at 0 for five mins then it shut off. Now no life at all.
Gonna build a jig tomorrow so I'll update here if it works.
Really hope so as it's a mates phone.
I've done my s3, s1 and the Mrs s2 without it going wrong so I'm not sure how it went wrong this time.

Your phone have got super brick, and the JIG nothing to do.... You must go to service.
The reason for this is stock kernel who has kode cause brick.
Sorry for my english!
Ah that's a shame. Fingers crossed it's still under warranty or it's gonna be an expensive month.

[Q] x10i Keeps Rebooting.

Hello,
I have flashed a few custom ROMs onto my x10i and each time it reaches the lock screen when it starts up it just seems to go into a reboot loop from kernel splash screen to lock screen again. Is there any fix for this ? I have tried using SEUS and restarting the whole process of flashing a kernel, rooting etc but it doesn't seem to work. it literately only happens when it reaches the lock screen. sometimes it lasts longer than that. Whenever I wipe the system it seems to work fine but as soon as a few things are running it starts to reboot again. The current ROM I'm running is PAC-man, with the kernel supplied along with it.
Could anyone help me ?
Thanks,
mmy4life
I have the same problem
use the phone until the battery become empty charge it in off mode up to 100 enter in xrecovery advanced options wipe battery stats and reboot
maybe you did an error when flashing or it runs wrong kernel. my suggestion : just use another ROM there are many nice ROM you can choose, and dont forget to follow step by step installation guide provide by developers.
Is the rom overclocked as this can can happen on some devices try and set the CPU to 998

That usually happens when the ROM is using overclocked CPU settings or an unstable CPU governor as default but it can also be defaulted inside the kernel. You simply flash another kernel and appropriate ROM.

I've tried this multiple times, it happens on the stock ROM and kernel.

Install xrecovery and wipe the dalvik cache.

I've also tried that. I went through all the proper procedures when installing a new rom.

Then it has to be a hardware problem. Try removing your SD card before booting it up.

I flashed 2.3 and it kept rebooting after a while, so i re flashed 2.1 and it is more stable but reboots if i open a app or anything that uses ram.
btw 1eyedmonster how do you set the CPU to 998?
I am also having ths reboot and crash issue... is there no fix for it? I have read about this reboot error at numerous sites. Must be a bug or summin man... or we dn summin wrong... and if it were hardwars related then to what hardware wd you be referring to? Is it a replaceable part? How easy wd such a task honestly be... i have 2.3.3 with 3.0.0.75 and no matter what it just wont stop dropping itself while i just start to appreciate it all over again... so im sure there have bn plenty issues regards this... so is there an answer?

[SOLVED] Phone wakes up immediately after being locked

Hey there!
I'm on NeatRom 5.2 (4.1.2) with Apolo 4.12, but I've got a problem. Sometimes, immediately after my phone has been locked it wakes up, and I have to unlock and lock it again, because trying to lock it without unlocking won't work (I've tried for smth like 6 times in a row too )
Anybody help please? Thank you so much!
EDIT: I've sorted it out with changing my rom (Neat-->HCT)
EDIT 2: IUpdating NatRom to latest version sorted it out too :good:

You may have another app that is doing something to wake your phone just after it locks - have you installed anything recently?
EDIT: It may be worth going back to cwm and cleaning cache/dalvik - just to make sre your apps are optimised.
Thanks for your reply. I've checked with Wakelock detector if there's something that keeps my phone awake, but I found nothing, and I didn't install something new.
I've tried wiping cache and dalvik too, but it didn't work :banghead:

OK - next step then run GS2RomNuke @hawkerpaul in cwm then reflash your rom and see if the problem persists.
Ouch xD I thought I could avoid this step LOL
I'm gonna take a nandroid and try, and will let u know. :beer:

Its either that or uninstall all of your apps and reinstall one by one I think
So..I've tried uninstalling everything after a clean install and restore of some apps, but the problem remained, do I changed the rom. I'm using HCT rom now, and I've got no problems at all!

I've tried updating neat to 5.3.1 and I don't have this problem now, but if I'll have it again I'll try as you said
