Just have an query about this problem.
The battery of the phone was quite low and the phone started heating up and switched off. Tried to leave the phone on charge for a few hours and it didn't show any reaction at all.
I have tried the hard button reboot (Power, Home and Volume Up/Down) but to no avail.
Then I left the battery out for while, inserted it and still didn't charge.
Thr phone is not rooted and the software hasn't been tampered with at all.
Any other way to attempt fixing it?

A jig or try a different charged battery.
I had the same problem, I think. Try this:
1) Remove the battery.
2) Plug the phone on the power cable.
3) Insert the battery with the phone plugged.

if the above does not work, then please put your phone to recovery and do a factory reset or at least
- wipe cache partition
- wipe dalvik cache (under advanced)
- fix permissions (under advanced)
and if you reeally can't get to recovery,
then go to download mode and flash another firmware from sammobile.com
cheers

Difficult to help with no specific information about the ROM, kernel, etc. running on your phone.
Since when do you have this issue?
What has happened just before this problem appeared the first time?
Just as theoretical suggestions:
1. Start into recovery mode, wipe cache partition.
2. Shut down the phone.
Pull out the battery.
Leave it out for about 5 minutes.
(Just to be sure that everything "cooled" down and CPU is fully out of any voltage and current.)
Then put the battery back into the phone.
3. If nothing helps, flash a stock ROM.
Then start into recovery mode and do a factory reset.
(So backup everything you do not want to lose before flashing.)
Good luck !
problem arose in the morning, after charging the phone. Reset did, flash another firmware. None of this helps.
Title says it all, the screen doesn't turn off automatically and I can't even turn it off with the power button, this the screen is constantly on all the time and thus the battery gets drained super quickly.
The is starting to be a big problem, anyone know what it might be?
Backup data then factory reset .

did you try to update your device?
Yeah, no luck. No update available, currently running 2.3.5.
Also the phone reboots over and over again randomly..
Backup all important data etc to PC.
Hard reset Phone Dialer : *2767*3855# This will format everything
Boot into CWM Recovery (pull battery if you have to, from power off; volume up + home + power on) and clear cache & dalvik (just to be sure).
Reflash ROM
If you are running official stock, hard reset and flash ROM from here with Odin

Why cant I use KIES to update the firmware since the phone is unrooted?
Also whenever I connect the phone to the computer VIA USB, it only charges the phone. When I put the phone to Debug mode, and USB Utilites and press "Connect storage to PC" nothing happens, the phone doesn't appear on the computer and KIES doesn't notice the phone.

Sounds like USB drivers missing .

Odin is more stable than KIES, and easier to use.
What you could try is uninstall KIES and Samsung USB drivers. You'll find those in programs. Next download the newest version of KIES from the Samsung site. Reinstall. Then reconnect.

Update 16.1
- I flashed the phone to the newest ROM and firmware and here's how the phone is working right now.
- Screen: Still doesn't turn off!
- "MTP Connected": USB connected comes in and out every 15 seconds, making the phone unusable.
- Media scanning run: every 30 seconds or so.
- Samsung Disclaimer pops up frequently requesting me to accept "Vlingo Terms of Services" although I've never opened it.
It seems like something is wrong woth HW
I am sure something is wrong with the wake/power button on your phone

It seems there's something wrong with the micro USB port on your phone. There could be dust or some of the pins might be damaged.
try different usb port or reinstall kies
Have you exposed your Galaxy S II to humid environment such as your bathroom while taking a shower? Or have you used your phone in the rain? I've heard of people having similar issues with their phones like screen repeatedly turning off and on or false detection of chargers connected. If this is the case the water may be shorting some of the pins inside the micro USB port and causing the issues.
Hey everyone
Im having a problem which seems to be that whenever i unplug the charger it:
-: Keeps charging
-: if the phone is off, Shows the phone as charging and if i try to turn it on it has a flashing temperature next to the battery
Has anyone managed to find a fix for this or why it happens?
Thank you

After unplugging the phone from the charger it still keeps charging?
How? Via the air?
I think it's just an issue with the battery (fuel gauche) app.
Try to wipe cache (and Dalvik cache) from recovery mode (Shut down the phone. Then press Volume UP + Home + Power until recovery menu appears).
Good luck !
Yesterday I updated my Atrix to to Beta 4 ICS jokersax. My battery was not quite fully charge at about 56 percent but completed with no issue. I went to bed had the phone plugged in and woke to a dead phone that will not turn on at all.
Notes:
When I plug the phone into the PC a green light will come on and say on for maybe five minutes then turn off. The whole time the screen remains black.
When I plug into the wall charger the phone will come on boot to the red Motorola screen turn off and just keep looping. I can get into Android recovery by powering on the phone and holding down the volume key.
Once in recovery I can navigate but I have not been successful charging or flashing a rom.
I have two batteries and neither one will hold a charge or charge when plugged in. Any advice is appreciated.
Try to flash a rom after formatting the system partition in Recovery.
If your coming from another rom you need to flash twice

I did the following and flashed the latest ICS ROM twice. The phone reboots to the moto logo for about 10 seconds then shuts off.
wipe data/factory reset
- wipe cache partition
- go to mounts and storage:
1.format /cache
2.format /data
3.format /system
- go to advanced:
1. wipe dalvik cache
2. wipe battery stats
I would try a full fastboot wipe and then flash your rom. then calibrate the batteries
Do you have the latest cwm?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA
Fastboot says the battery is to low to use. I am using Clockworkmod ver. 5.0.1.0.
Other than a faulty cable or charger can't really think of anything else. Why don't you post on joker's thread...more people might help?

The last time i checked, no questions in a dev thread.
To OP, get an external battery charger, or get someone's atrix to charge you battery, than use fastboot again
I ordered the external charger below. This might be useful for some others. I also have a new battery and charger coming from ATT today.
I had to go back to the old blackjack for a few days.

So basically, a friend of mine handed me a phone that he tried flashing a custom ROM with Stock Recovery... Cant do much at the moment with the phone. Constantly gives off " Force Close " crap and its extremely laggy. I've heard to use ODIN? I'm not too familiar with this kind of problem. Any solution?
P.S. , I cannot get into download mode. I tried factory reset. I tried getting my way through the phone by dodging all the force close pop-ups. No good.

Can't get into Download Mode? Impossible. Plug your USB cable into your computer, and while plugging it into your phone, press and hold the volume down button until you see the shoveldroid. It is actually impossible to not be able to go into download mode.
And please follow Droidstyle's excellent guide on how to restore back to stock. He has links to all the files you need. Look around for it
Also, before you do anything in Odin, look at the guide, and make sure your cable works. If the Odin reflash of the stock ROM doesn't work, try a different cable, and if that doesn't work, reinstall the Samsung drivers.
Yup. I plugged my cable into my computer(s) and held the volume down button and plugged it in. I've waited half a minute and nothing. I can still go into stock recovery.

Are you doing this with the battery out?
It won't go into d/l mode unless it's out.
Battery out indeed. Nothing. Just simply waited another time for 1 whole minute.

so what is the exact recovery version that you are able to boot into
and what is the exact Rom name / version that boots up
lets at least start with the above information 1st
edit::: some other options are
adb reboot download,
or use a terminal to "reboot download"
...
you may be looking at the unbrickable mod found here
or a
Jig - This is a tiny Frankensteinian device made of a small chip, a transistor, and the tip of the little micro-USB connector that you plug into your phone to charge it or attach it to your computer. When your phone will not go into download mode through normal means, putting a jig into the phone when the battery is in will make your phone go into download mode. You can make one yourself or buy one online for less than $10.
.
This is the recovery i get into. :
Android system recovery <2e>
Samsung Recovery Utils
- for BML -
reboot system now
apply sdcard:update.zip
wipe data/factory reset
wipe cache partition

I have a jig. The I turned the phone off, plugged in the jig, and nothing.
And more. The phone doesnt charge the battery. I use a seperate accessory to charge the battery. The phone reads that it has a USB in since it says on the status bar.
So what didnt work for me were :
Jig method
Volume down ( no battery ) plugging into PC
Volume up down ( with battery ) plugging into PC
Volume Down ( plug in battery after pressing Vol. Down ) plugging into PC
so it won't go into download mode, even with a jig? sounds like your friend killed his/her fascinate. but you can make them feel better by advertising it as a coaster.
