First flashing thru ODIN the original firmware from SAMFIRMWARE.. U havent given enuf details just phone crashes and sudden battery drop.. Install Betterbatterystats then check the wakelocks which cause the battery drain..

Hummmm......brand new phone? No flashing? no rooting? How about returning it and ask for a new one?

[Q] Too cold battery - not charging

Hi everyone!
I have my galaxy S2 for almost a year now, and I never had a problem. A week ago, I saw on a widget that the temperature of my battery is -10°C. I first thought it was an system error, without any differences for my usual use. When I plugged my phone in, the phone said the battery is too cold, and the loading is suspended. My battery depleted. I bought a new one, and have the same problem. I didn't find anything on forums.
I'd add that I tried to update to the latest android version (4.0.3), wich brings nothing.
I've done a factory reset, it doesn't help me.
My phone is rooted, so I don't know if the support will be free for my phone...
Thanks a lot!

Maybe try this : http://bit.ly/LRAdWn

When Battery is charged fully,it immediatly go down to 99%?????

I had this problem since the second day i've got the galaxy s3 in the international version at first i thought that it was the firmeware that came with the phone is crap,so i changed to another stock ROM from Sammobile and nothing changed always the same prob,Share your thought and somebody please give me the reason or a solution to this damn problem.Thanks in advance.

Problem??? Because it drops to 99% after you unplug the charger??? That's way within the tolerances of the charge circuit. The real question is what kind of battery life are you getting?
FWIW, My stock T-Mobile SGS-III (i.e. dual core Snapdragon S4) often displays 99% when I unplug the charger. However, it's inconsequential as I get a full day of service from this battery

Well thank you man i thought i was the only one having this problem but fortunatly my phones can last a full and sometimes more than a day.Have a nice day.
Mine still stays on 100% approx an hour later. I.use to have that problem, u need to use different kernel like phenomenal 2.0 or siyah 1.5 beta3

Weird
Hmm that's weird, cause mine doesn't jump to 99% when i unplug charger (on stock firmware)
What firmware are you using now ?
If I were to unplug my phone and not touch it or wake it up it would be on 100% for 1.5 hours.
samsung made it like this to prevent overcharging well it was on S2
Happens to me as well, i've assumed it's just the battery fuel gage calibration being a bit off, and that's likely what it really is. This doesn't really matter, the fuel gage isn't very precise anyway, by design, so who cares.
This is not a problem.
The battery meter is reset everytime your phone charges to 100%.
Unplugged and checked an hour later and still at 100%...stock non rooted.

Its supposed to do that to prevent overcharging or so I've heard but if you leave it plugged in for quite a while, it should stick at 100%.
Mine used to display 99%, but since a recent OTA update, it now stays on 100% once unplugged. Samsung must have altered it. Im on Stock Rom.

It's a software issue called as sleep of death, mostly the only way to get the phone normal again is removing the battery, but it's easy to recover from, you just need to change the rom, you will need to use Odin. Reflashing with the same stock firmware will also do it.

[Q] I'm afreid I might lose my phone.

Hi, thanks for caring.I have tried to solve these problems my self but I coulden't. I have two problems, but I want to tell you what happend before so you know the soure of the problems. A while ago I was srufing the net and I found a stock version of ICS for my regon. I installed it and rooted it and it was fine every thing is working no issue. after five month -now- I installed root browser lite and did a search then left my phone on the table. when I got back the phone was heated I close the app and tried to cool it down with my hands after a minute or so the screen shows horizontal lines on the half top of the screen for less then a second and went off. I pulled the battey and waited for a while then trun it on it work for a minute and a agine horizontal and off. I stard the phone in in CWM and restored my back up. It worked fine but I felt it need to wipe data and factory reset. Here is my problems
1. After useing the phone for more then 10 minute or more it gose off and when I tune it on it back to nornal.
2. The battery is weired, if i let my phone with out use it's fine but when I turn it off and turn it on agine the battey is 10 or less -not always-
( sometime when my phone is 0% percent I plug it on charger and it show thired of the battery is green.)
THESE PROBLEMS APPER EVEN THOUGH I INSTALL THE ROM AGINE WITHOUT THE ROOT.
Thanks for your patient I know it is long but I tried to include everything.

If it's not the battery, it's the kernel.
Tell us more about your device's info (model, rom, kernel, etcetera).

You are good, charge the battery till 100%. Flash siyah's kernel and see how it goes.
You can flash siyah with Mobile Odin, no pro version required.
"OMG!!! Just realized I've got an SII Plus! oh...wait...I've got more Internal Space, nevermind, still got an SII."
The kernel is stock and it was fine before.
any way I found Siyah kernel S2-v5.0.1 should I go for that or there is a specific one you recommend?
Thanks you helped me a lot.
I installed Siyah kernel S2-5.0.1 and the problems are still there. I just tested my phone to see if it's work. I opned a game and play for 8 or 9 minute battery was 62% then my phone gose off. I tried to turn it on but I couldn't I plug it in charger and turn it on battery 33%. what is wrong?
someone please help me!

I think your right. thanks for your help. you people can close this subject.
I HAVE FOUND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM IT WAS THE ROM.
I don't know what wrong with it. Any way I reinstall the stock kernel and flashed Jelly Bean 4.1.2 (Spain) and everything is GREAT. I'm so happy; I solved it!​
Never seen that coming.
Glad you pulled it off

[Q] Galaxy S4 drains battery during call

Hi all,
I have a problem with my Samsung Galaxy S4 i9505. For a couple of days ago I installed CM11 on the phone and then experienced that the mobile signal had some trouble keeping it stable. Many calls made the phone-app crash and so on, the battery also drained really really fast during the calls, I think the battery goes from 100% to 0% in an hour, it also got burning hot at the top speaker-area.
Since I had all those problems I decided to try the new unofficial CM12, the phone-app didn't crash anymore, but the phone still drained battery as fast and was still as hot as with CM11. After trying to take out the memory-card, make a hard-reset and all possible things, I gave up.
I then installed the original firmware again, and by that unroot the phone, but the problem now exists in the original firmware as well!! Does anyone know what could have happen?
Hope that you guys here can help me!
There is a picture of a short call of 8 minutes that I made attached below.
Thanks!
Hey .check ur battery first wethr its swolen or not....2 it can be a hardware problem also..did it every fel into water? Cuz same thing happened to my note 2....
