the phone powered off it self until i pressed the power button to turn on again. i noticed this often happened when i put in my pocket for a while. but when i put it on table over night it didn't happen.
roms that i tried that had the same problem:
batista 3.7++
lightening 3+,6+
cognition 1.4+
apps that i tried uninstalled but no avail:
-setcpu
-daemon control(batista rom)
-juice defender
is it due to motherboard issue? appreciate your advice. thanks.
have u tired wiping data and dalvik cache before installing any rom?

thanks, yes, i in fact wiped all and even install stock rom before any mod roms. and i also changed few kernels(stock, nipo, CF..)but still the same..
now trying to use kh4 stock rom and see..
So the this issue s only occurring when the phone is in your pocket and never when out of your pocket.
this happens to my Phone as well.. its kinda random...
sometimes when am listening to music and sometimes when its just on standby
for example it just restarted which reminded me to search for this error...
few days ago it was on standby and had shut itself down and the battery was completely drained after 5 hours without anything on.

yes, found it only happens when putting in my pocket. when charging over night or putting on my work desk, it didn't happen.
and yes, it happened few times when it turned off it self, it lost about 10% to 20% battery in just few minutes... the phone was warm when it happened. that was why i took out to check and found it already powered off..

What firmware you have? I run on XXKH3 for 3 days (previously on XXKG3 for 2 weeks), no boot issues.

lightening 3.2 = KG2
Batista 3.7 = KH3
Cognition 1.4 = KG6
all happened to shut down it self. so i guess it is not rom issue..
I would try a stock ROM for a week, just to be safe (no apps/tweaks/kernel, etc., really stock). I'm pretty sure a recent stock ROM will not give you issues, I would not worry about the hardware.

thanks for your advice, will try stock rom then
Ya, do that... just to see what is going on.
More on the technical side, the screen needs minimum 500Mhz to get out of Sleep Mode. Some custom Rom's use a low voltage or "underclock" feature that reduces the power consumption but also the number of CPU steps. That is what makes your phone crash and reboot randomly.
Once you put the stock ROM, do a sdcard wipe (if you use one), just to be safe. It should take several hours, so do it over the night. Personally I would not use an external sdcard during the one week test, just be sure.
You could also have a RAM (hardware) issue, ya. But 99% of the time is related to software. Bad memory degrades fast so you will see your random reboots pop at a faster frequency. If you did all the above and still experience random reboots, run adb logcat to see what is going on at that specific moment. If you get error codes like:
Code:
code 1 (SEGV_MAPERR), fault addr 00000000
you are dealing with bad memory unfortunately and need to service your phone.

I also heard that some people had bad battery contacts on their S2. Clean them with some audio head tape cleaner and cotton swabs, than make sure the contacts are proper... it should eliminate this possibility. In a way, it makes sense since you move a lot with your phone in your pocket.

you got my THANK button too. but how to run "adb logcat"?
Is all explained into link. Time to read?
However, I have a feeling this is your problem, since the phone restarts in your pocket only. Don't smack it like the guy did, heh. Go easier, think like it is your girlfriend...
Just clean the battery contacts and make sure they touch properly.
is there a guide on how to install Stock ROM back on? cant find any...
how can i root my sgs2...?
it also happened to my phone. so i brought it back to the store where i purchased it and told them that it was shutting down randomly when i put it in my pocket. after 15 days of waiting i called them for follow up because they told me it will take 7-10 working days. they told me that the phone never shut down in the service center. what can i do about it? i don't know how to flash or root. this is my first android phone.
I have finally found a solution... installed XXKH3 FW stock, not rooted yet, and installed an application from the android market called Load Monitor
Code:
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.landak.loadmon
and enabled only Add Notifications, only notify high load, autostart and only screen on... seems to do the job, no battery drainage and most of all NO SOD (Sleep Of Death) or restarts anymore
If you still have problems try checkin wake lock from the options of the app...
Hope it helps

The phone did not rebooted in their store because they did not move it, you have a bad battery contact that can be fixed easy.

Weird, people reported that app adds load to the phone. Why not use terminal instead to check the stats?

A search would have answered the question as usual .
Standard to drop 3% even on stock .

Try choosing a different Tom, sometimes that helps. You can also wipe battery stats in recovery. Last option, warranty replacement if your phone is still covered.

Why its not a warranty problem and will not be replaced .
You pull the plug you lose power .

Wiping battery stats achieves absolutely nothing. Google have stated this more than a few times.
What you're describing might be a battery issue, it might be an issue with the USB/charging circuitry of the phone, or it could be none of the above (most likely).
If you're not running a stock rom (compeltely stock, not even a CFRoot kernel), find stock firmware & go back to/flash it. Head over to Sammobile.com to find/download stock firmware for your phone.
If you can reproduce the issue of 'when i reboot my phone it drain to 15 or below' it might be a hardware issue, but as JJE said a few days ago, you wouldn't get a replacement. You might get it repaired if it's definitely the hardware issue I described above.
But you've got a bunch of things you can do/try before you go down that path.
now days i noticed something
the first is when phone is fully charge if I plug it off immediately it will get down to 96 or 97
and it will not if i leave it for one hour or less than that
the second the battry drian to 15 or below it not always occur and it occur only when battery level below 50
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.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda app-developers app
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.

Hello,
I hope every one is fine and all is well with everyone of you.
Today something strange happened to my new Samsung Galaxy S3,when in the morning i woke up ,my samsung galaxy s3 display was complete black and only LED's were flashing at that time and after that i kept it on charge for about one and half hour and now nothing is working,no LED's,no power turn off and On button,even i took the battery out of it and then kept it again but same problem,i am very much worried about it.
I have never tried any updation or any other sort of jelly bean update yet.

No i woke up in the morning,LED's were flashing and yesterday night i charged it 100 and the battery was full at the time.
Try flashing stock firmware, you can get it from sammobile
the latest ics is your best bet i think.

Could you please tell me how to try this firmware without turning it on,i have also tried to connect it to my laptop through USB but my lappy didn't detect it.
Download mode via vol down + PWR + Home and flash stock rom via Odin .
Requirements known working charged battery .
No download mode then buy USB recovery jig to try to enter download mode .
Fails then its a JTAG repair as they are usually cheaper than a service centre repair .
If phone is in warranty condition then a Samsung service centre .

hi everyone
I updated my lumia 920 to portico and everything good just one thing that's if my battery goes empty and my phone says goodbye I connect the wire charger but the phone didn't wake up and take one hour to start and the battery percent was 6%
please help me
sorry for bad English :crying:
If ur battery goes down, then it is perfectly normal that u have to charge it for a while untill u can power it on again. This is the case both with iPhones and Android devices. This way the battery is protected from emptying, since then, it would be needed 4 the battery to get replaced, which on Lumia920 isn't an easy process. Heck, I don't think it can be done at home, maybe if some1 is skilled enuff.
thanks for u
but when I rolled the software back to (1232.2109.1242.1002) the problem disappear
and if I updated to (1232.5951.1249.1002) it's came back
where's the problem

You just answered your own question. If it is there with one ROM but not the other then the problem is obviously the ROM is not compatible with your hardware. You also should not be flashing ROMS with less than 50% of your battery remaining. This is just to keep the risk of loosing power in midflash down.
