[Q] Xperia X10 troubleshoot near brick situation

My phone is acting weirdly since past few days. I am currently on Feralab GB rom.
Firstly, the phone would automatically restart and battery level would fall by nearly 20% every time.
This leads the battery level to drop down to zero. After that it wont start and wont go into flash mode.
After some time(1-2 days), i tried booting it and it got to the main OS but as battery was 0%, phone automatically turned off.
Afterwards, it behaved normally for few hours. But it again stopped working just now.
What could be the problem ? Any ideas ?
P.S. When the phone turns off by itself, nothing works on it. Not even SEUS.
you could charge the battery with an external charger, or desktop charger something like that, i mean unattached in phone ... make it full
then put it back to phone then install other rom like DonutHD ... the battery performance on it is good, then if you face the same problem it should be a battery problem ... you should change it and buy a new one then

Click to expand...
Click to collapse
I know it is not a battery problem. Because it wont work with other batteries too when it automatically shuts down.
so ... you couldnt install any other rom because of that problem, tried and failed ??
maybe then its a hardware problem in the phone

Battery life problem, charging problem, new battery problem..

Well guys Im going to be as quick as I can.. as the title says..I got all those problems
How everything started.. Well one day as usual I went to sleep and connected my phone to the charger.. As I woke up I realised my screen phone was on which was weird cause the first I thought was some freak called me .. well I was wrong.. my cellphone was "plugging-unplugging" to the charger.. And the battery life was at 75%~.. Okay I said damn Ima fix this as I come home today.. all day went thru, MY CELLPHONE EARLY DIED (Battery got 0% in less than 4hrs) And well the first thing I thought was buying a new battery.. sadly in my country is hard to get something "Original" if that can be called.. so I bought a OEM one.. well I put it on the phone.. went to my home and when I get to charge the phone.. IT SHUT DOWN WHEN YOU PLUG IT WITH THE OEM BATTERY well I was really concern about that.. So I said hey lets give a try shutting it down and connecting it while it's off.. WELL something weird happens too.. It shows the icon of the battery trying to load the status (The circle) but it shows up- dissapear-shows up- dissapear all the time.. Well.. I guess my luck was too bad.. During the week I was dealing with those charging problems like really much all the night thinking about the phone, checking if it was connected, doing everything as possible to get 100% thru unplugs and not charging.. Well I decided to send it to a Technical Service.. BUT I didnt told him to check the phone(I was running low on money) just told him to change the USB PORT.. well everything seemed fine when he delivered it to me.. as I came home and plug the phone, everything runs cool.. TILL it gets 90%.. It just disconnected by itself, didn't charge anymore.. connected it again and did some charge to 93% DISCONNECTED AGAIN, and then when I plugged in the charger it didn't make the sound of charging.. I had to play with the "Hole" trying to make it charge..Now it isnt even moving on from 93% and it doesnt fully charge.. I MUST ADD I was running on 2.3 Gingerbread when I got my phone, after 2 months I updated it to 4.0.3 ICS And THIS WAS WHEN THE PROBLEM APPEAR.. And I thought it could be a Software problem so I updated it to 4.1.2 JB from Shostock3 and well.. Here I am with a new battery not charging, my battery dying so quick and a lot of money wasted.. Thanks in advance for some help (MY LAST IDEA IS Downgrading the Software. But u guys could give me some ideas) TY!
So don't mess with the software just yet ...
So when you say play with the "hole" does it mean the phone's connections port is damaged? because if it is damaged and it cannot hook up firmly then all bets are off.
But if that is not the case, I would try a different charger.
Try hooking up your phone to your computer, and see if your computer's USB will fully charge the phone. Just leave it and see what happens. If it did, then you got a bad charger, and need to get a new charger.
If I'm not mistaking those chargers have 5 volt ~0.7-1.0Amp output requirements so read about them and be mindful of the output requirements.
Good luck,

Slow charging questions posted many times. Usual fixes are: replace charger and lead, go back to fully stock, replace battery, phone internal charging circuit is faulty.

[Q] Incorrect Battery Stats / Problems with USB Connectivity

Hello developers!
My newold S2 got a few issues and i don't know how to handle them. There was no answer by Google, so i just registered on this great site. :good:
A few month ago, my battery didn't show the correct charge anymore. It jumped from fully charged to less than fifty percent and slowly moved up to about eighty percent. Freaking out! When i connected the phone to my PC nothing happened - it just charged the battery instead of going into mass storage mode. At this point, i used the latest stock firmware and decided to go on a costum rom, recalibrate the battery and that standard stuff. Everything went fine, at least for the first few plugins. I tried another kernel, another rom, but always the same freaking problem. Now i use SlimSaber 4.4.4 updated this morning.
I guess there are problems with the USB controller or something. The phone doesn't recognize that it is unplugged for hours - and this is causing the issues with the mass storage mode. Just nooby guessing - i hope you can help me. Reboot doesn't fix the problem.
I tried to explain the problem as good as i can, sorry if there are missing informations. I don't even know how to explain the problem in german... I attached some screenshots for better understanding. Looking at the clock may show the exact problem. When i took the screenshots, the phone was already unplugged for about two hours.
Do you have an idea whats going wrong and what will fix the problem?
#edit// For any reason, i was able to connect in mass storage mode by mounting in TWRP.
#moredit// For any reason, mounting in TWRP doesn't work anymore.
Servus,
I cannot tell you that the battery fix will work for you but for this device common battery stats wiping apps do not work at all.
Somewhere in the Galaxy SII part of this board there is a workaround for that.
1. Turn off your phone (battery between 0% and 50%) and charge it.
2. Wait till it reached 100%
3. Pull out both - battery and charging cable.
4. Wait for at least 3 minutes.
5. Restart and propably do this again
-> However, you should look for the exact description in the original thread.
The other problem could be due to your rom - you better ask there .
