Being an absolutely brand new member, although not ignorant to the excellence of Android or for that matter different ROM's and there charm, I today joined this wonderful source of wisdom and knowledge
As I recently installed the great work called SlimTW5-JellyBean-v2.0 onto my SGS2 I wanted to share my experience with the author of this great ROM. Well...as a new member I'm not allowed to post anything until I've posted at least 10 posts...how the f***k that should be possible with a post "ban", beats me..
Anyroad, this is what I wanted to share with the author and you other guys, running this ROM.
Absolutely the fastest and most stable JB ROM I've tried this far...and loving every experience more and more ! Well almost...an odd behaviour have occurred when charging the phone. And this is the only problem I've had. When I connect the charger to the phone, this being the charger connected to the outlet on the wall, which means 230 V AC, the phone indicate it's being charged...the screen's shutting down as it should after the time out period chosen...
How ever, when and if I "wake" the phone's screen, the phone still connected to the outlet, the screen shows me the "enter PIN code" screen! Ok, I can live with that so I enter my PIN-code...which is dismissed as being the wrong code?! As I look at the upper right corner the symbol tells me that the phones not connected at all...to anything. With this I mean that the SIM card is shown as not present, which is SO wrong.
A restart solves this issue...if being patience This behaviour is sort of pi....., making me frustrated.
In short; I would SO much like to be able to charge my SGS2 without the phone loosing the ability to connect to my very present SIM card

well u can try this, go to CWM recovery there do Wipe cache, then wipe dalvik cache after that Fixpermission then reboot system and see if issue persists while charging the phone
u can also try changing the kernel and see alternatively

Being a friend/devoted to "RTFM" that to me seems the installation behaviour...and which I followed. Do you think your advice would resolve the issue? I'm happy with the ROM's feature, it's speed and stability. A change of kernel to what or which one?

Thanks a lot, you guys. I've changed the kernel to Siyah 4.1.1 kernel, put the phone on charging and crossed my fingers
First impression of this kernel is that my SGS2 feels more responsive and faster I'll get back to you guys with news around the charging issue

Back again with great news :thumbup:
After charged the phone it would wake up into full connectivity to both the network and SIM-card !

Hi everyone,
first of all I did search forum, but havent find answer nor related thread, if I have missed it please sorry about it.
Got my SGS2 about 6-7 months ago. No issues, everything perfect. Got updated to 2.3.4 with KIES (not really fan of experimenting with phone that have price of above average monthly salary in Serbia).
Rooted device with ZergRush exploit since I wanted as close to mint backup in case I have to send it to service(dont ask, service here is pain in the butt), purchased Mobile Odin Pro (cheers to that Chainfire) and flashed Hellcat's kernel for 2.3.4 from Mobile Odin.
Everything was cool, CWM, made EFS backup with his tool too, and so on...
However, about 2 moths ago, I started experiencing random restarts of the phone. Did search, found out that it happens and actually dealt with it.
Now, recently, i switched off my phone in the evening (was on 20% and didnt wanted to leave it on charger, and didnt want it to die on me during night), and in the morning I havent been able to turn it on. Freaked out badly, only to realize that its battery was empty. Which was odd because I DID turned it off.
About few days ago, i switched the phone, and it went to full shut down, however managed to get stucked somewhere in process (LED's are on, did vibrate i think) but never shuts down itself.
After some time, when I picked it up since I saw LED's on, i realized that its very hot and that I cant switch it back on (presumably because it never got shuts down) and had to remove battery so that I can switch it back on. When I did, i found out that battery was about 15% drained in that 10 mins, and I dont know what he was computing while shutting down, but it burned the sh*t out of itself.
Tonight it did that again so I decided to ask first before I do factory reset/wipe everything (maybe update to ICS too).
So, any idea, suggestion what to do is more than appreciated.
Cheers
Polite bump?
What is the actual problem .

Well assuming you have read original post, why the hell that happen, does it happen to anyone else, and how to avoid it?
this may help
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1108499
Well, as I said, its not bootloop.
As I said, I shut down the phone, it starts shutting down, turn on leds, vibrate and stays turned on. After that battery drains quickly, and phone gets very hot.
When I get battery out, and back in it boots up without problems.
And I dont have any cooked rom, just Hellcats kernel for 2.3.4 stock rom.
you problem
Hi there,
Here's the best way to resolve this issue you have to re-flash a fresh new rom, meaning a full installation of the android os and here is how to do it,
First search google and download ODIN to ur computer or Pc.
Next search again google and type the following ( Sammobile.com ) and register and after that type the model number of your phone for example (i9100) in the site search bar and download rom that u need and thats it this should solve ur problem
Note : be sure to have 100% battery charged before doing the above and after installing ur new rom do a full wipe and enjoy,
I hope this was helpful,
Regards,
iMatrix
Yeah, thats probably that I will end up doing, luckily i have bought Titanium Backup so that I can backup all apps that I have and restore them after wiping everything.
I was wondering that somebody have any idea what might be going on.
Thanks for suggestions everyone.
before that try wiping cache and dalvik cache

This seems to happen quite a bit on gb roms.. definetely time to upgrade to ICS
Actually from what I have read about ICS 4.03, Im actually glad I didnt.
Releasing it in that state(e.g. battery issues again, 3rd party sms programs sends sms twice...) is bad for both G and Samsung imho...

I think I'll wait few more iterations just in case
If you are facing an issue with Samsung galaxy SII with fake charging and you think that it’s a port issue and you are willing to change the USB port for your device please stop and action the below steps 1st to make sure that its not a software issue
• Take a backup from all your data in the internal memory
• Wipe your device by dialing the code *2767*3855# in your phone app
• Open the device in the download mood and flash on it a stock 2.3.5 OS
• After that you’ll find your device working like charm
• Don’t root your device in this phase, just flash it with a stock 4.0.3 and then flash it with the root from CF-root
• After that you can flash a custom ROM and I recommend Resurrection Remix
• The idea that you change from ICS to ginger bread that you will completely wipe everything in your device so it will be as if you are buying it new.
Appreciate that the above is helping people having this issue as I had it and now its solved.
The Original Post down there
Dear XDA team,
Appreciate your support on the below:
I’m an android user since 2009 I had many devices since that date ended with galaxy SII i9100 “international edition” 16GB
It was working fine from Dec 2011 till 4 days back.
4 days back the battery was 10 % and I plugged the original charger to the device and I slept for about 8 H, then I unplugged the charger how ever since that time my device is having the animation of the charging in the battery and its giving that its already plugged to the charger.. The main issue that I thought it’s a USB port issue so I tried to clean it with alcohol and with a tooth brush gently and nothing was helping... then I found that in the CWM the USB cable is working fine in mount mood so this means that nothing bad with the port so I tried to think about the ROM, I formatted the system drive and cleaned the kernel and installed the official software ICS 4.0.3 and I removed the root.. I still have the issue and its always giving me that the battery health is overvoltage I asked someone in the local warranty and he stated that there is some issue with water with the device which I know by heart that it was not effected by water.. I thought maybe because all the galaxy SII users are experiencing overheated issues and we spent most of the time in air conditioner here in Egypt so it can affect by heat and the condensation process but supposed that the device must have a failsafe protocol .. I have a good faith in Samsung but I found that the issue is still there and nothing was treated, someone told me that it can be a battery issue and you have to install a new battery and I did changed the same and I tried to put also the battery in deep freezer to lose its volts and nothing helped ..
Last trouble shooting made was to try to remove the battery and put the device in the sun to have any amount of moisture away and I let it about 3 H and also I put the charger in the device without the battery and I found it opening without battery as this was for me something strange.
Please share your ideas with me as I can’t find help from the warranty or from anyone and I don’t want to void my warranty by changing the USB port as most of people advised to..
Waiting for your kind ideas to help me with my poor situation
Sorry for making it long for you to read all the above but I really want to explain everything I did to help in solving the problem as I searched the internet and I found that many people are experiencing the same.
Your kind feedback is highly appreciated.
i'm sorry to tell you but it seems that you do have some problems with the usb flex cable (usb socket) and from what i have read here it seems that it doesn't need for the phone to be soaked in water... just condensation can cause you these problems... so you can guess what i can advise you... replacement
when i had the same problem i took it to servicing and they dismounted it and cleaned it properly, it worked for a couple of days but i ended up replacing the faulty part

My experience is different. I just got the phone and it was charging normally albeitba little slow compared to my sensation but now with a custom rom it has the fake charging issue.

If you don't want to change the part for the USB port, then you're eliminating the one thing that will definitely fix your issue.

I did all what you've mentioned and its not helping i guess its a battery issue as i tried something here .. i put the device in the download mood and its was connected to odin fine .. also now am having the device connecting as internet tethering activated on my laptop.. definitly i need a larger battery to use but the issue that no one is selling the same in Egypt
if any one know a place in Egypt selling <2000 MAP battery for Galaxy S2 i'll be glad to have this thing done ASAP.
today i went and through the device to the warranty office in order to be fixed there and they had a look in the device they mentioned that its a recurrent issue and it must be water and they will check the same and feed me back .. warranty here in Egypt is sucks like everything about this damn country.
wish me luck
Before doing anything dramatic, try the following method, which worked successfully for me:
Get a compressed air can and blow the USB input a few times in short bursts. Do not use anything else than compressed air, unless you want to run into more serious problems.
I face the problem calibration also not working and i got no ans that can solved the problem for me too now m also searching the result.

Hello XDA I think this is my first question here so please try not to bully me to much in case I'm asking something that was answered before , although I did search for my problem and I didn't find it here.
So it started like 1 week ago , nothing actually changed to my phone since I started having this problem.
First please take a look at the 2 images i attached to see the odd behavior.
So it first begins when I see a STOP sign at the 3g connectivity icon,indicating me that there is not sim inserted(this is not true i always have my sim inserted) and the first thing i do is try to restart the phone,when it opens again the battery level is 1% and if I leave it like this for a few minutes it closes just like my battery would actually be empty,after I remove the battery and open it again it shows me something like 13% and rapidly discharging,after that drains also I remove the battery again and wait like 5 minutes and then try to open it again,it has more than 45% battery left,also if I try to use it as I would normally do if i really had that much battery left, the 3g connectivity icon turns to "No sim stop sign" and it just does that randomly even if I am not using the data plan at all.
I must mention that I did not charge the phone between the images!
I want to know,could this be from software or is it something physic damaged in my phone ?
I am using ICS 4.0.4 updated with Kies and my phone is not rooted.
Sometime i got the same issue, but I use custom rom and kernel.
Recommend you not to update via Kies, it may cause many problems. You may need boot into stock recovery ( Turn off, then hold Volume Up+Home+ Power, while boot logo appears, unhold Power button). In recovery, clear cache. If it does not resolve, try to download firmware from Sammobile, and flash using Odin, i think that 's better.
In my case, it may happen after flashing other kernel. Just remove battery from phone for 30 min or more, and then place it.
Its a known issue for all galaxy s2 handsets (probably with more, I'm not sure). Its a problem of the fuel gauge in our device which unfortunately cannot be fixed. Wiping battery stats won't help, as acknowledged by Google devs. However, I believe that an option in Siyah kernel is there to reset the fuel gauge, which may work (I haven't tested it personally).

Hello!
This is my first post here but I know people here are generally very helpful since I have been playing around with roms on my i9100 quite a bit the last year, and I have never had any problems - until yesterday when I installed the last cm10 nightlies. It simply won't charge. I tried over night with the AC and now all day with the USB cable plugged into the computer, but no charging. Now it is completely empty and I can't even get into CWM recovery mode to do a factory reset or restore a backup.
The only activity I get at all is that the phone restarts continuously while plugged into the computer (windows 8), only to realize it's battery is empty, and then reboots, and so on...
So, to my question: Can this have anything to do with the rom? Or is it more likely to be hardware? Any help is highly appreciated!

Hi all, i want to know methods how different people saved this issue on amaze, i have but i cant fix it i tried different methods, but all that help only for some time. I opened this thread for other people(i think many people experience this problem) for finding the fix.Thanks for reading and answering.
There is no way to answer such a general question like this with such limited detail. There are so many things that can cause random reboots: bad battery, problem with an app, rom, kernel, etc. How r we suppose to be able to know what is causing your reboots, you didn't even say what your phone's current setup is: unlocked/locked, custom rom/stock, cust kernel/stock, etc.
A lot of amaze owners have had problems with battery going bad and random reboots being one of the issues. So that may be one thing to try. Good luck

Go back to stock.
Learn/read more about what you're doing when modding your device.
Maybe try again
Problem solved
Nobody with any knowledge is having random reboots. Its usually the people who flashed a ROM incorrectly, is using an unstable ROM build, over/under clocked their CPU too much or under volted their CPU too much. I never once had a random reboot that i didnt provoke (which means it wasn't random) unless I was using an unstable ROM.

Battery caused my randoms. Anker took care of it. Or you can opt for OEM but most likely happen again.

OK, I THINK I MIGHT HAVE FOUND A SOLUTION!!!!!!!
I bought an Anker battery. After a while, it will start doing the random reboot things. The cool thing is, the Anker batteries come with an external charger. If I take the battery out of the phone and use the charger, it seems to "reset" the battery so it works fine for a while.
I'm startting to think there is an issue with the charging system on the phone - who knows.
thank!!!

One Quick Solution
Okay so this is just one quick solution for those specific people out there that have had random reboots on EVERY ROM they try. A good friend of mine had constant reboots even on modified stock ROMs like Revolution HD which I have never had rebooting issues. We noticed the battery was easily removed when taking off the backing so we inserted a paper index card on the bottom to decrease the gap and make the fit slightly tighter. We just cut an index card to about the size of an inch in length and the same width as the battery compartment and then folded it in an L shape inserted it in the bottom of the battery slot and his phone has seen nearly 0 reboots since doing this. Seems like a dumb issue but it is worth a try especially if your Amaze has taken some physical abuse.
Still having problems. No idea what to try anymore. Might have to bite the bullet and get another phone. Never again HTC.
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using xda app-developers app
Wife had the same problems...
a little background of her Amaze issues:
- tmobile stock ICS ROM, not rooted, about 16 months old.
- after about a year random reboots begin and get more frequent, sometimes 6-7 times daily
- replaced with new Anker battery. problems go away for about 2 weeks
- after about a month, phone no longer charges (no orange light) using the original ac adapter and usb cable
- gave in and called HTC (from htc.com:United States/English/+1-866-449-8358/08:00 - 01:00 ET (7 days a week))
- got a RMA number and paid for shipping (~ $6 with Insurance at USPS) to Texas
- HTC returned her Amaze (same IMEI number), fixed under warranty. Not exactly sure what they replaced/fixed as they did not provide details.
If you're in a last resort type of situation, give them a call...you never know! Since being fixed, it's been rooted and NRG ICS Blue ROM and 4EXT recovery flashed, just like mine. All is great...for now... If Amaze dies again, not sure what phone to get next.
