I have also recognized that behavior after flashing a new ROM or kernel.
Getting hot is normal, but getting "very" = extreme hot, so that the plastic phone case nearly smelts, is not normal.
It indicates that there is something "stressing" the phone.
In most cases, wiping cache and rebooting the phone helps.
So, try this:
1. Shut down the phone.
2. Charge the phone while it is turned off till 100% and let it plugged in for another 15 minutes.
3. Unplug the phone and pull out the battery for about 3 minutes.
4. Put the battery into the phone again and press Volume UP + Home + Power buttons until the recovery menu appears.
5. Select wipe cache, and if you have CWM recovery wipe Dalvik cache in Advanced folder too.
6. Then reboot the phone normally.
Hope this helps to get "normal" heating while charging the phone.

thnx man
hey thnx man , after i have folowed ur steps , it seems it has been fixed, been charging for like 15 min and its just al little hot [normal hot i think]
thnx man ,
btw do i have to keep clearing the cache after a while or just leave it from now on ?

Bricked?

My phone was running at about 60% battery last night, and working fine. It was in my pocket and it vibrated. I was unable to turn it on or reboot it, even after removing the battery. I tried using the battery from my wife's S2 but still no luck. I tried connecting the power supply but it still wouldn't boot so I left it charging overnight.
This morning it alternately flashed a fully green battery and a fully black battery. If I press and hold the power button it starts the boot process - I get past the Samsung splash screen and see the first "Resurrection Remix" splash screen, but then it reverts to displaying the green battery.
Any ideas for how I can revive the phone??

Ok We cant say its bricked!! Because its booting up but not coming to homescreen rite? Are u able to get into recovery or download mode?? If ur able o then wipe the data cache and dalvik cache, reinstall the ROM again.. If Recovery doesnt shw up.. Then Use ODIN to flash original fw!! Even if u still couldn get it.. Order a USB JIG from Ebay and try getting into DOWNLOAD MODE!! Even after this its still working means ITS BRICKED !!
Start download mode and the flash a new stock firmware . And your phone isnt bricked .!
This is why I always make a backup.
If you can get into download mode you can fix it, if you can't it's a service centre job. Pretty simple really.
Try cleaning charging port..
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Uh oh...I managed to get into Recovery mode, did a factory reset and kicked off a re-install of the Resurrection Remix ROM from the external SD and it's hung at 50% (for 10 mins now) - at the "Extracting /system..." stage. I daren't interrupt it.
Any ideas???
Yes stop messing
1: If you dint have to save anything, wipe better to full wipe
Flash a stock Rom using Odin, than start again with custom roms.
OR
2: download your custom Rom again and flash, might be corrupt download.

So it's OK to interrupt this ROM flash, even though it's stuck at 50%? Should I just hold the power button or remove the battery??
pull the battery
But I say flash stock Rom first, lengthy procedure I know, but safer
OK I decided to reflash RR 2.3, which had been running fine for a couple of weeks previously. Immediately after flashing (which worked OK) the boot process wouldn't complete - it got as far as the RR splash screen then died (screen blank, and needed a long press on the power button to restart).
This happened several times. Eventually I removed and replaced the battery and it finally booted.
Does this sound like a hardware problem? I've noticed that the phone often runs quite warm, but I don't know if that's normal.
You have to flash stock rom, only way to know if there is something wrong with your phone, run it for couple days.
Now to the heat issue, it is due to
1: modem
2: kernel
3: both

[Q] Phone Shutdown after battery wipe (Galaxy S2)

Few weeks ago i saw my battery drains faster than usual . it suddenly drops to lower percentages when unplugged , so i thought its time to take a battery wipe , my mobile was rooted with (Siyah-s2-v6.0b5 ) & then today i went to recovery mode and wiped battery status, .. process was completed successfully. but when i tried to restart my mobile , it shows boot animation and then suddenly stops ,
i tried data wipe , cache wipe , clear dalvik , wiping partition and installing Os using odin , but every time it shuts down after boot animation, seems to be a problem in battery but my mobile does not turn off in odin mode (power button + home + vol down ) , so i'm gonna leave for discharge in Download mode , So if you know anything that could fix this , please let me know . . Thanks.! :good:
First of all, deleting the battery stats is doing nothing to the battery life. That's a myth. But how that could damage the device I don't know. Maybe find someone with the same phone and switch batteries to see if the problem is in the battery.

Problem with my xt 1225

My xt1225 was fine , until some time ago.
Problem started there : I couldnt let it drain all the battery down or it would be a pain in the ass to charge it up.
If i let , the problem was that everytime i plug the charger in the phone would go up a second showing the charging screen and then turn off. The solution was to try to boot on bootloader or recovery and pray that it doesnt turn off, then the phone would charge a bit and back to the normal state.
The strange thing come here : one day after letting it go down to 1% (it didnt shut down but stayed at 1%), i plugged the charger in and the battery wouldnt go up past 1%. I let for hours and nothing . Then I managed to go on receovery (twrp 3.0.2) and :
The processor temp was something like 4293089048 C , the battery still 1%.
After some restarts on recovery i noticed that the battery would sometimes change a bit of the value , and i plugged the charger and managed to charge up battery to 100% in recovery only.
Now , after charging the phone a bit i decided to reflash the stock rom (was using aex) but i noticed that I can`t get my system recognized on usb. Neither on Bootloader , recovery , or system .
Anybody can help me =(?
Obs : Still have acess to system (with a custom rom , aex) , and i can flash things on recovery

First of all, it seems like you have posted in the wrong section.
The XT1225 has a dedicated forum available here. So, the correct section for your thread should be here.
Secondly, it sounds like you're having a battery hardware issue. The battery is likely failing. If you can, you should replace it.
It might also be a USB Cable or USB connector issue. So, you should first change the USB Cable. If it doesn't help, change the battery. If that fails too, then you must ultimately change the USB connector (better take it to a repair center).
Before any of these, you can try to calibrate the battery with a calibration app, but I seriously doubt that will work. It's still worth the try!

Samsung Note Edge (SM-N915G) Bootlooping issue. Need help recovering

Hi everyone.*
I'll give you a background on what has happened and would be appreciated you guys could offer some assistance or steer me to the right direction.
I have a Samsung Note Edge (SM-N915G) that suddently restarted randomly while it was sitting on my desk. The phone is not rooted and USB debugging was not switched on prior to crashing if I recall correctly.
The phone is now bootlooping or freezes at the optus screen. Sometimes its barely gets on the home screen before restarting again.
I have tried the below but with no success.
1. Replacing brand new batteries.
2. Changing the firmware through ODIN v3.13.1 (tried both old and current firmwares). It passes through ODIN but still the same problem.
3. Tried to recover data via programs like Dr. fone to recover the data but it keeps failing.
Basically I want to recover the data thats on the phone is my main concern, then recover the phone. Last option put it back to factory state.
Any help would be appreciated.
Hi , probably you was using fast charging option , and that reduces battery life.
So you said that you replaced new battery , you must be sure that is exactly like yours , because many store has a copy of batteries silimar like Original.
Next what you can try is to Wipe Cache Partition from recovery and if you are able to use your phone , go fast to the Settings and disable Fast Cable Charging.
See how to do that , I hope you fix this issue . : ) Good luck
