Hello,
so my Lumia 800 has that issue in witch, with more than 90% charge, it simply turns it self off and cannot be
turned on by pressing the power button, I had to plug it to the charger and then it come alive again. Also this
only happens when the phone turns off the screen(auto-lock)
After trying some official roms(wp7.8 8858 RM-801 included) I started trying some things.
One of those was using the phone continuesly, activated WIFI/GPS and changed the screen timeout to 5min,
entered the Nokia Drive(because itdoesn't let the phone dim and out lock). All of this, has you may have guessed,
to increase the discharge of the battery. By doing this I was trying to figure out if the problem was the battery
or some type of glytch in the OS. The result is than the battery is good.
After this I started checking various possibilities and I came across the Battery Saver, apparently this app(or something)
manages the internal processes so that it saves battery. I decided to try and uncheck all options on the battery saver and
it worked... now the phone doesn't turn off on auto-lock. the only thing I noticed yet is that at 32% it turned it self off.
hope this helps :fingers-crossed:

I'm not finding any other posts about this, so please forgive me if this is well known.
I have installed Superclean, with the KGB kernel, and I'm using Pimp My CPU to overclock/underclock. While unplugged everything seems to work great, but when I plug in the charger, at some point the phone powers OFF. (I've seen complaints about the phone staying ON while charging but this is the opposite.) It's kind of a big deal since I use my phone as my alarm clock, and typically overnight is when I have it on the charger. So I can't afford for it to be spontaneously powering off while charging it.
So, any ideas about this? Is there a setting I'm missing somewhere? Let me know if there is more information I can give about this issue. Thanks!
Is it actually shutting down or just the screen shutting off? Check in applications then development and see if stay awake while charging is checked.
I'm running SC with latest KGB 12/12 and have not had this happen. Just a suggestion hope it helps.
While plugged in I get the large green battery on the screen when I press power. When I unplug the charger, it boots just as from a powered-off state (boot animations, etc.). The "stay awake" option is NOT set, but I thought that option was just regarding the screen on/off, not the device power on/off. I guess I could try having that option on, and set the screen really dim -- at least then I could use the alarm clock feature while charging.

Are you using sleep profiles in pimp CPU?
"the relentless pursuit of the perfect rom"
I only had a Default and Screen Off profile. Notice I say had because I actually noticed that I started having some instability on top of the power-off issue, so I reverted back to the kernel that came with the ROM, and uninstalled Pimp. This addressed the stability issues (I didn't have time to experiment with voltages, etc. to figure out what works with my device).
As for the powering off while charging: apparently setting the "stay awake" option did address this issue, although I am still puzzled as to why. I always assumed this setting was for devs who were testing apps and didn't want to have to keep unlocking their phone. I didn't think it would have any effect on preventing the phone from going into a powered-off state, but whether by coincidence or design, this did prevent the power off while charging that I had encountered. So thank you for the suggestion!
Thanks for the replies sfobrien and laureanop!
Xperia S powers off while charging
I'm having the exact same problem. I have a brand new Xperia S (OK, a bout 1 week old) and last night plugged in the mains charger. I then set the alarm to 7:30am and dimmed the screen display. The handset stayed on for at least 10 minutes. I fell asleep. The alarm did not wake me at 7:30! When I woke at 7:45am I found the phone had switched itself off completely and although the power cable was still plugged in, the handset did not appear to have charged the phone (47% battery remaining). So 2 issues: why did the mains charger fail to continue charging the phone throughout the night; and why did the phone power down completely. I would only expect the phone to automatically power down when the battery was nearing zero %.

I'm in dire need of some help. My phone is a stock unit that has had no modifications to it at all. It started shutting off randomly a week or two ago, usually when I would use GPS, bluetooth, or the internet but it does happen when everything is turned off (GPS, bluetooth, and wifi) When I turn the phone back on, the battery would be totally drained displaying to a critical level. This would cause the phone to shut back off. I can repeatedly turn the phone back on, and usually one of the times the battery will be displayed with more charge and allow me to use it, but if I did anything other than make a call the phone would shut back off. This problem does not occur if the phone is plugged in and charging (never shuts off randomly and the battery does not drain). I have already tried factory resetting the phone multiple times and that hasn't seemed to help. Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Have you tried a new battery? Sounds like your battery is on its last leg. It could also be battery contacts on your phone, make sure they are clean and actually touching the battery when you insert it.

I second this, I had the same issue a couple years ago with my g1, a new battery made it run like new again.

what ROM are you using? are you overclocked? I had similar problem with some roms overclocked, my phone would shut down, restart, battery drain was horrible!! during calls would be the most annoying it would turn off and was walking have a conversation with the plastic by my ear .after some research and testing the problem was my overclocking was unstable at 1.2 + running on 1ghz after a while the problem went away
Your phone will restart or shutdowns randomly..if
1.You overclocked GPU or CPU to high performance.
2.You flashed any unwanted zip files for performance or somewhat.
3.You make the phone very heat[Main Reason].
Instructions:
1.Avoid playing high end games for long time(Like me).
2.Avoid playing high end or medium games above 20mins. while charging.
3.Don't allow your phone to heat.(Due to temperature).
4.Try Re-flashing your current Rom(if you installed custom rom).
5.Try flashing your phone.
6.Check your phone completely for viruses with a better antivirus.
7.If the problem is after installing some apps..Try uninstalling that.
Thats all i Know!
happened to me before more than once I agree that you should get a new battery but if you have to wait in the meantime, what I did was:
1. pull the battery out let the phone cool down
2. I put it back in and turned it on
3. If it turns on okay drain the battery till it shuts off by playing music
3. repeat 1 and 2 and if it turns on okay again repeat step 3
4. if not then let it stay off and charge it to maximum and it should be useable
I did this because I assumed that the phone for some reason wasn't reading the battery levels properly so I made sure that the battery was fully drained then charged it to max to fix that. It worked for me but its just to make the phone useable as I still needed a new battery. It drained very quickly and I had to be charging even 3-4 times a day on heavy use but if I only made phone calls and texts it got me through one day.
Hello everyone!
As title says ,my samsung galaxy II (CM12.1 flashed) doesn't give any signs of life.
Here is the story:
I turned off my phone this morning and plugged in charger.After hour i plugged off charger from my phone and tried to turn it on.As it was turning on it got stuck on samsung logo.Afterwards i went into recovery mode and wiped /cache.Everything was fine.Then i went to "factory reset" where problem occured...while it was deleting /data it got stuck.Few minutes later my phone suddenly turned off.After that moment it just won't turn on.I tried to get into recovery and download mode but phone doesn't react.When i plug in charger it doesn't react neither. Battery was at 50% when i tried to turn it on.
Before this, phone was running fine. But recently it was freezing a lot so i had to take off batery and put it back in.
Im not native english speaker so don't get mad on my "perfect" english
I hope someone will help me diagnose the problem
Thank you
Goodmorning.
....the same here..... sadly.
This is what I know regarding that unable to turn phone back on problem, perhaps can solve yours.
We know the S2 i9100 (and maybe the other variants too) has "problem" with battery levels. In my case, it won't surprise when I got (for example) 48% then drops drastically to 3% after reboot. The problem sometimes also occur when I reboot to system from recovery.
Regarding to your problem, try to recharge your S2 until 100% (in this case, phone is off completely), unplug the charger, then turn it on by holding the power button.
If the phone still won't turned on, try this tips as it always working for me. Plug the charger and try to turn the phone on (holding the power button). If the phone just go back to battery indicator screen (sometimes the screen will blinking once), here the problem.
From here, you need to see what kind of battery indicator image shown on the screen. If the image is a battery indicator with round progress inside it (and doesn't change no matter how long you expect to it), you need to press and hold the power button to restart. Repeat this until you got the image with battery indicator with ACTUAL battery level and bar shown. When you see this, unplug your charger, wait until the screen is completely off, then holding the power button to turn on the phone. In my case, this is always work.
If for some reason you never get the correct battery indicator screen after many tries, try to remove the battery off, wait for at least 15 seconds, put it back on, then try the procedure again.
Hope that help.
As many of us are aware, there is a issue that can occur with a Nook Tablet going crazy with phantom touches. Essentially it looks as if you are tapping on the screen when you are not. It usually happens very quickly, one minute ok, the next everything is getting tapped all over the screen. This can cause data loss as the device thinks you are touching the screen. For example a file you were working on may abort before saving as it thought you hit "close".
I have been bugged by this issue on and off. Some people replace batteries to fix the issue, and while that will fix it 99% of the time, there is an easier (and cheaper way).
The problem appears to be the newton loses battery calibration. There has been talk in the past of deleting the battery file via CWM or other Android app that deletes this file (or even doing it manually with a file browser app, which may need root access). This battery file is only data since the LAST time you charged the device. Not the calibration data. And this file is deleted automatically everytime you plug it in to charge.
How I fixed it
After a lot of research I found that many Android devices there often a way of recalibrating the battery charge system. The steps are:
1. If you get phantom touches hit the power button as fast as you can to put it to sleep ande prevent anything occurring you might not want (aka a file deleted you wanted to keep etc).
2. Charge the battery to full, until the green light is lit on the charge indicator located on the Nook Tablet charge cable
3. Unplug the device from the charger
4. Use the Nook Tablet for 20 minutes with a high drain app (aka watch a video)
5. Plug the Nook tablet back into the charger and wait until the light turns green again.
6. Repeat steps 2-5 several times. I would suggest 3 or 4.
7. See if you get phantom touches again when the Nook Tablet power gets low. If you do try steps 2-5 again several more times.
In my experience after a few times of this, I no longer had the phantom touches issue.
Why it happens
I am not sure all the details as to why, but one time I do know for a fact that one time it happened after I had the tablet on the charger with a full charge (I had not got around to unplugging it yet) when the power to my home failed. It came back on a few minutes later but that night when I was using the device I got phantom touches at about 50% power left. Which I never had before. After doing the above method it is working fine again even down below 15% power (which I never let it get that low normally).
I suspect that the power failure caused the charger system to recalibrate and since the battery was already at full, messed up the whole system. I also would NOT leave the Nook Tablet on a charger for long periods. If it sits at 100% for a long enough period it is possible for the battery to drop down a little and start charging again. This could start a recalibration again, bringing back the phantom touches issue.
I have not posted until now as I was not certain what fixed it before. If it was the charge to full, use for 20 minutes, then charge again method or turn it off then charge method worked. I tried several before and wasn't sure which one worked. Now I can say the put to sleep, charge, use, charge again method does work. But don't turn off the device then charge if you can help it. If the Nook tablet is powered all the way off (not sleep) doesn't seem to do a battery recalibrate. Or at least my best experience is to plug it in while in sleep mode, charge to full (green light), use for 20 minutes, and then charge again.
Sorry if this has been posted before. But a quick search didn't reveal any hits.
UPDATE:
Upon further tests, often powering off the device fully (holding power for 30 seconds or pressing for 5 and saying yes to the popup to power off), then plugging it in, letting it turn on and charge to full will fix the problem as well.
Long story short. Another Z compact down. This time it's my Z5C.
Unrooted Z5C E5823. I flashed some marshmallow from xperifirm (build 32.2.A.5.11) some 8 months ago...
Description of events:
Just finished texting. Turned screen off. I go to turn it on again but the phone turned off, because pressing the power button doesn't do jack. Long press it and doesn't turn on.
... great.
Volume down + power button and it turns on after 3 vibrates. Battery level plummeted from ~70% to 20%. So I just put it on a wall charger and wait.
Some 20 minutes later, I'm surprised to see that the phone is still at 20%. So at this point I'm sure something is very wrong and I start browsing for solutions. Nothing worked.
The only thing I didn't do is a factory reset. But I seriously doubt it's a software problem.
So I say "screw it" and I unplug it from the charger and start using it normally. At some point the phone turns off on itself so I have to do the volume down + power button combo again. But this time, alas, it doesn't work either. So I try the little yellow "off" button on the SD bay + holding power button. This time the phone vibrates 3 times. Then I turn he phone on again. But this time it turns off after some 40 seconds. Then it began a short power on/off cycle and then remained off. Won't turn on. Like if it was hard bricked. I fiddled with the yellow off button while plugged in on the charger and it turned on again but still won't go past or below 20%. Ever.
I remove it from the charger and go home from work. Phone is unresponsive. PC doesn't recognize it. No key combination works. Charger and key combinations don't do jack. But THEN out of the blue, I sense 3 very faint vibrations (i just kept trying to power it on, I wasn't giving up ) and now the phone is on again. Battery at 20%, obviously. Service menu doesn't have a battery test anymore. How convenient... Battery usage menu is always the same when I turn it on. PAst history is gone, app % use are all the same ratios.
I'm trying to backup my data now. But at the meantime. Phone is on and still stuck at 20%.
So, is the battery dead? Wth is going on?
i have smailer problem
my phone wont pass the 90% . also after factory rest (stock rom\kernel\no root\lockedBT)
still, im not sure 100% is my batt i think is started from android 6 (now im at 7)
also my phone wont pass some voltage also (4.300) was 4.350 when the phone was new with 5.1.1
but in QC2 quick charger its 4.308volt max with 92% so i dont know whats goin on:|
hi,
I had same problem somes weeks ago.
try flash new rom, phone stuck at 20% but seems to have same battery's autonomy .
after a week I changed the battery, now all works fine
I think this is the lithium controller that is dead not the battery itself .
Battery and turn off problem
My Device have charge (50,60,70 or more), unnexpected it show 0% and turn off.
Hardware problem maybe ???
