Help!!! Droid Razr Random ShutDowns!!! - Motorola Droid RAZR

I have a Droid Razr XT912 which i have SafeStraped and installed CM 10.2.1. I have a problem where the device just powers down as if i did a hard reboot (volume key down + power button), when it happens, i can see the white line that appears when u do the hard reset. When it happens it stays off. I have to manually turn it back on. When turning on, it gives me the Android is Upgrading screen, even tho i never wiped cache.
When it finally starts up, the battery takes a 40% dive or more, sometimes the battery stays the same way it was before the shutdown.
This has happened on lots of roms that i flashed (Both Lollipop and Kitkat Roms). A few weeks before it started the Random shutdowns, My battery normally took heavy dives (for example from 90% to 40% and so on).
This made me think it was a battery issue but with the Android Upgrading screen showing up after the shutdown even tho i never wiped cache makes me have doubts about the problem being the battery.
When the phone is being charged (Both USB and Wall charger) It doesnt shutdown on its own. But once the charger is disconnected, the random shutdown initializes.
The Phone is 10 months old.
Has anyone experienced this problem on their Razr?
Could it be a battery Problem or something else.

So I tried booting into safemode. But the phone shutdown within seconds after it finished booting up and after I disconnected the charger.
When I turned it back on, my battery percentage hadn't reduced.
I want to believe its a battery failure but with these behaviours, I am confused.

I suspect battery failure also.
but it could be the rom, or other hardware failure.
I suggest
backing up the rom in safestrap's recovery
then restore stock rom if you have a nandroid backup
or install a different rom on a rom slot (1-4)

You may have bought the phone 10 months ago, but how long did it sit on a shelf?
The XT912 was Released 2011, November, Motorola likely stopped making them by the end of 2012, likely earlier than that.
So it's at least 2 1/2 years old.

I have actually restored a nandroid of my stock 4.1 on slot one and had the same problem. It also happened on cm12 and AOSB Lollipop.
In fact at a point in time, I wanted to flash the whole phone with the sbf files but I am scared the phone might go off during the flash.
The phone is only stable when its on charge. When on charge, I can play games, browse, listen to music but the phone won't go off but as soon as I disconnect the charger, any small thing triggers the shutdown. Like taking a picture, browsing on 3G.

After a shutdown, I was left with 4% and I connected my charger to charge it. After writing the above post I found out that the phone is showing a full battery.
Now look at how the battery dived to 4% and how it climbed to 100% in just a short time.
What do u make out of it??

Help unbrick

So, let me start
Few weeks ago my phone hard-bricked when i was trying my softbricked (Rom manager fault) O1 unbrick with KDZ. But it is just the start. So my phone was left at service to unbrick it for almost two weeks. When i got my phone , it was running some 2.2 official ROM, but it was strange, filled up with russian applications and widgets. I didn't liked that, so i updated my optimus to 2.3.x (The newest version, but don't remember which) to have the new baseband. Then with super one click rooted, and through terminal i installed CWM (5.0.2.0). Then flashed the newest oxygen. My phone was very unstable. It was just shutting down for no reason, restarting, (and i also got two times kernel panic, when it was clocked just to 748mHz) especially when i was using it. Also battery lasted not long, so i wiped batery stats, but it not helped. So i decided to flash new ROM. I fully wiped everything, and flashed PerfectPeso 2.2. Then flashed fixed scripts, GAPPS, New kernel. IT was also VERY unstable, so i thought old version PerfectPeso is not compatible with new kernel (PP.kernel v1.7), so again i wiped everything and flashed PP 2.3, then GAPPS, new Kernel, Fixed scripts. It was still not stable as it should be.. In the morning phone was just turned off, so i turned it on. In battery stats there were strange things: battery just came down 10 percents as i turned it on, and also it doesn't showed it was turned off at night not all. Phone was connected to charger all night. In a day it was just keeping shutting down, but just then, when the screen was turned on. After that, when i came home, it just turned off, and not turned on, even no LG logo when trying to turn it on (It turned off in my hands, when 20% batt were left). So i just kept trying to turn it on, by removing batt, reconnecting the charger. AND IT TRUNED ON !! but after few moments it went down again. I started trying again to turned it on, it turned on again, just in few attempt's. My phone was showing that 23 percents still were left... So i fully charged it, when i did that i tried to calibrate battery, like the manual said (i typed in su, then calibrate into terminal) but calibrator said i have to turn my phone off, and when it boots, i have to remove batt, and then put it in. I did it few times (with the calibrator help). I thought everything is fine. (But i wanted more performance, so i made EXT2 in my SD, then tried to enable ungaze a2sd by typying into terminal A2SD, but nothing hapened. Then, i tried To ZIPALIGN all APK's Manually, by commands: "su", and then "zpall". The command did something, no errors. Then i wanted to get rid of boot logo by trettet, because it not looked very good, so i went to Settings and disabled my bootlogo. Then i just started playing gta III (now phone was only on default cpu clock speed, because i disabled overclocking on boot, and turned it on when i needed it). Then I pressed home key, opened Dolphin browser, and my phone went down (as usual). Then tried to turn it on, but no signs of life, i did it for over 20 times, but still no luck from yesterday. Can anyone help me to solve this ?
Also, i don't think it is fully bricked, because when i connecting the charger to my phone, phone battery pins gives me around 2.35 V (but when it was full bricked few weeks ago, it gave me no voltage)
Thank you
p.s. sorry for my terrible English
ahaha yes very funny (sarcasm) -.-
Cool story bro..
Can anyone test full-bricked device, what voltage comes to battery pins, when phone is plugged to charger ?
Thanks for the changed name )

I just wanted to know what voltages comes to the battery, (or should come if it is not removed) in the phone ;DD
Anyways, thanks for making me happier )
But i still need to know, how to test if my phone is really bricked :/. I know, it sounds a little bit strange, but i can't explain everything in English because of the lack of knowledge of English words ;DD

Your phone is bricked if it won't start and kdz won't work

Then how another time it didn't show any logo, but after trying it booted up. Also how it could brick, only by opening browser ? (then my phone went down and won't turn on)

Well, you can have hard brick or soft brick...
If it has a hardware brick, it is unknown how will it react, best to go to a service...
If it is software brick, try flash stock GB with kdz... if not then it is bricked, go to a service center...

I know. And also, today i thought that i could try to trun it on, so i took the phone, tried to turn on, but nothing. Then I took the battery out, shaked my phone and "Clapped" it into my leg, inserted the battery, pressed on button and.. the phone showed LG logo !!!
Then it went down, then I plugged in the charger. It charged a for few min. Then i powered on my phone, it turned on succesfully, so i just layed the phone on the table, to charge (It was 4% at the time). After few mi. i took the phone and it was turned off. I tried to turn it on, but no signs of life. So again, my phone is "dead". It is no truning on anymore, and shaking, pulling batt out doesn't seem to help. What should i do ?
uh~`I want to be a romer

?
so, another thing: The phone in yesterday evening started working normally (Exept few turn-offs), i left it charging till this morning. In morning phone was not active, i turned it on by reinserting batt, but phone showed just 75% batt left, even if it was plugged in whole night. Can anyone help me to remove all this sh*t ?
Also I tried few ROMs, but same. Maybe KDZ would help me if it is baseband problem ?
Or maybe it is hardware problem ?
I would be very happy if someone could help me with this
(last time KDZ bricked my phone, so i don't want to use it anymore)

Samsung Galaxy S2, Charge issue, Brick?

Hey,
Major issue I'm facing today. I first noticed this about 2 days ago, I'm currently running Resurrection Remix 2.0 and has been installed for about a week? with no issues.
Two days ago, I put my phone on to charge at night, as usual. Woke up the next morning and by mid morning Noticed my battery was at 15%, When I checked the battery stats, It looked as If the battery had not charged ( I'm pretty sure it had been on charge, but put it down to the fact that It wasnt plugged in correctly)
Next Day, (last night) I put it on charge, and checked it was definitely on charge, which it was. I woke up this morning to find the exact problem, this time at 50%, When I remove the power cable the charging animation still continues.
I turn the power off, Remove the battery and wipe battery stats and start back up, over the next 20 minutes the battery stats increase my battery percentage (not charging) and then continue to drop later on.
Tonight my phone had drained its battery, thought it would be best to drain it, leave it off on charge and turn it back on. I've come to turn it back on removed the power cable and now it will not turn on but constantly loop through the Charging animation icons..
Does anyone know the fault for this or even a fix? I cant boot into my rom, or even CWM
urgent help needed!! thanks in advance

Do you have a screen shot of the battery usage? And it sounds like you have an issue with the charging port. Clean it with a dry toothbrush
Sent from my GT-P7510 using xda premium
may be a kernel change would also help u ...
Pretty straightforward really. Either a battery problem (less likely) or a problem with the USB/charging circuitry (more likely; we see it on here all the time).
Try another battery & see if you can get the phone to boot. Otherwise, service centre.
As KMs said, you might as well clean the USB port while you're at it, and then try a new battery (at least you'll have a spare when you get it back from repair).

Okay tried cleaning it with a tooth brush but no luck, the phones been playing up all day, still saying its charging even though Its not plugged in lol. Just got back home to back everything up do a full wipe and update the rom to the latest version+ kernel and its not even being recognised by USB, it'll charge, but not recognise
Is this a common problem with the S2 then? that the usb fails/malfunctions?
Think I'm gonna have to take it back to three on Monday, hopefully get it repaired/replaced asap ( but will need to flash back to original stock ROM + Kernel first!)
We've seen our share (I've seen at least a couple of dozen) of these in Q&A over the time I've been here (~8 mths), yeah.

Cheers, Thanks for your Help. I'll let you know the outcome on Monday.
no point starting a new thread.
So Does anyone Know where I can get the original (HG3) Three UK ROM for Samsung Galaxy S2?
I don't want Three to say that because I've put a custom ROM on it I've voided my warranty
Here, Samfirmware.com or you can get the latest firmware for phone model/country/carrier that you'd normally get via OTA update with the PC version of Checkfus (search for it on here/Google).
Thanks again for all your help.
finally got some screen shots off my phone,
here's the battery stats if anyone's interested

Downloaded the firmware, however I cant seem to find how to update OTA, Its given me a .tar which I could use Odin to upgrade, However as I cant get it to read from USB I cannot get Odin to detect my device
That's probably due to the USB circuitry problems you seem to be having. Might want to use Mobile Odin (get it from Google Play) to flash the firmware. If it's an ICS stock rom, you should be able to use Triangle Away to reset the flash counter.
Hey guys..im also experiencing the same problem.....sometimes charging stopped halfway....when i check with the "battery widget" it says overvoltage (with " ! " symbol)....
is it because the firmware problem or usb port or charger problem ? any solution? Tq in advance guys !
Did you even bother to read the thread ? Go back to stock & see if this resolves the problem. Then clean the USB port with an unused toothbrush or similar. Try a new battery. Try a new charger. And if none of these fixes things, service centre.

Battery icon blinking

I'm using latest XWLPX firmware and it have been working fine and now suddenly the battery icon keeps flashing, I can't see any battery stats, the battery percentage dont go down and when I reboot my phone it drops from 80% to less than 20%. When the phone is turned off a battery is shown indicating how much battery percentage is left and some seconds later it disappears and it appears again, over and over. Is the battery damaged? I've tried to unplug battery, wipe cache and wiping battery stats. Yesterday I used my phone when it was raining just to see when the bus arrived but I dont think just using it in the rain for a short time will damage it. Shall I try to re-flash in Odin?
for sure you need the re-flash, if you are not on custom ROM, why not do emergency recovery trough Kies?
I cant tell you if your battery is damaged, did you install some crazy battery tools/indicators/mods?
Try reflashing and see what happens mate.
I recommend you to reflash rom and then try better battery stats...
Cuz ur observation says its not Hardware problem
Peace
Hit Thanks & It will Disappear

ive reflashed and problem stays
i was on neatrom themed when it started and now im on neatrom not themed and its still doing it.
not tried a full wipe.
its been going on about 3 weeks and its not affected the phone at all
Have you tried changing battery?
Edit: if yes then it seems to hardware problem.

Really strange, the flashing battery symbol has to mean something. I also noticed if I plugin USB charger and remove it, then try to disable "USB debugging" in settings I'll get a "USB is connected. Remove the cable." error message. I just restarted my phone too see if I could get rid of it but I still can't disable it and now my battery dropped to 12% it was almost fully charged?! And the icon keeps flashing. When I turn it off again by pressing the power button the battery screen appears and disappears over and over again like I said it first post. It's the screen you normally get when you connect the AC adapter to your phone indicating how much it's charged. It shouldn't appear if you dont have USB or AC adapter connected. It's impossible to turn on the phone, when I hold in the power button for some time the battery screen disappears. Then I try to power it on but instead the battery screen appears again without booting my phone. Only way to get in is to start recovery mode and select reboot phone. Gonna try to re-flash with Odin but seems to be more a hardware issue.
update: re-flashed and the problem persists...
I just flashed CM9 and almost all the time even when I'm not charging I get a battery with a charging icon on it. Here is a picture of the strange battery drain:

I have exactly the same problem, and I also disassembled the back and searched for the issue. Cleaned the connector with some white gas and compressed air, but it didn't helped at all.
Did anybody fix this issue?

Try not using your phone for 3,4 days.... if was a water damage, it would be resolved automatically...

Atrix 4g won't charge from wall charger, usb turns green led but without battery

Hi everyone, i have just spent the whole day searching about this problem and i have not found solution, and things that worked for some people, won't work for me.
Hope you guys can help.
I'm going to tell you the events before i had this issue so you can get a lot of info about what posibbly happened:
1. I was tired of my phone being slow and some apps didn't worked for it because it had Android 2.2.2 Froyo and was never updated.
2. I decided to update installing Neutrino 2.9 by Notorius : Thread .
3. When i was trying to install the custom recovery i did something wrong and had to flash a Stock rom using RSDLite.
4. The rom that i installed was a Stock rom from Personal Argentina 2.3.6 Gingerbread.
5. After flashing this rom, the battery won't charge over 93% or something like that.
6. I wanted the phone to reach more battery % so i did something that read here at xda.
7. While the phone was off and charging, i removed the battery and once it showed the "?" symbol, i put back the battery, so it showed 5% and i panicked!!! because the tutorial said i had to install some zips from the recovery and when i tried to get into the recovery (i had already installed CMW) it didn't loaded the recovery. I pulled off the battery and try many times to get in the recovery but i couldn't so i powered on the phone an let it charge for hours but it didn't worked.
8. I was getting crazy so i tried to calm down and do some research here at xda, i was reading for hours until i found This thread , the guy said the the only thing that i had to do was waiting for the app to show approximately 4200mV and hit fix, it should fix the problem:

"lightbox_close": "Close",
"lightbox_next": "Next",
"lightbox_previous": "Previous",
"lightbox_error": "The requested content cannot be loaded. Please try again later.",
"lightbox_start_slideshow": "Start slideshow",
"lightbox_stop_slideshow": "Stop slideshow",
"lightbox_full_screen": "Full screen",

"lightbox_download": "Download",
"lightbox_share": "Share",
"lightbox_zoom": "Zoom",
"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
in my case, percentage shown was 8% and when i hit the fix, it raised 2 or 3 points (remember this numbers) i guess, but didn't fixed it at all (100%) so i started hitting fix every 10 minutes after being sure that the voltage was 4200 or above.
9. While doing this fix thing every while, i saw that every time it raised 3 or 2 points at the percentage shown, (the whole process was done with the phone plugged into the wall charger). I sttoped when the percentage shown was 97% because i was afraid it would cross to some 100%+ percentage, and 97% was nice for me.
10. After fixing the battery indicator issue, i decided to follow carefully a tutorial too install Neutrino rom 2.9 EE that i mentioned before.
11. The whole process was great and i successfully installed the Neutrino Rom i was happy and everything was fine.
12. When i was looking around the features of the new rom, the phone freezed and rebooted i thougt that maybe i was touching so many settings that it became unstable,although i didn't touch anything about processor speed , so i power on again and after a while another reboot , and another and another, i started to get mad at this and tried to find out what was causing this reboots.
13. Suddenly i had an idea and pulled off the microsd card, after this, the phone was like 9-10 hours without any rebooting and i was playing and installing several apps, and checking some tweets and facebook and everything was fine.
14 After like 11 hours since the last reboot, the phone rebooted again and this made me mad again.
15. I turned on the phone again and i saw it had like 40% of battery left, so i plugged it and let it for an hour, when i checked back the battery level, it was at 92%, so i let it for about half an hour more and it had again 92% of battery.
16. So i thougth, well during the flashing process the battery indicator got miscalibrated again, so... (pay attention to this) i run the app that fixed my problem at (see step 8 and 9 above) , it was at 92% and remember i saw that it "jumped" like 2 or 3% off battery shown, but instead, it jumped to 100% and battery shown jumped from 92% to 177% i panicked!! (again), and unplugged the phone.
17. I continued using the phone normally and before going to bed i plugged the phone.
18. After like 2 hours charging, i went to check the phone back and it was DEAD
So i tried this:
1. Plug the phone to the wall charger ---> RESULT: nothing happened.
2. Plug the phone to the wall charger without battery ---> RESULT: nothing happened.
3. Plug the phone to the PC via usb with battery ---> RESULT: green led turns on for 1 seconds and then goes off
4. Plug the phone to the PC via usb without battery ---> RESULT: green led turns on and stays turned on, until i put back the battery
5. Plug the phone to the wall charger (samsung galaxy s3 1mA) ---> RESULT: nothing happened.
6. Plug the phone to the wall charger without battery (samsung galaxy s3 1mA) ---> RESULT: nothing happened.
I hope some of you can help with this, i've read a lot of posts but they are from 2011 or 2012, i'm making this one because non of those gave any help. Thank you very much for your atenttion.
That's very strange...
But the random reboots you are having an neutrino are not your fault, I had those two... I think sometimes it just hang on the deep sleep and wouldn't turn on so I'd have to pull battery and then boot up again. Maybe that's your problem, too, try pulling battery.
If this doesn't fix it, does long press on power do anything?
In the end you could still charge the battery externally though you'd have to look what voltage you need and which pins you need to connect.
As far as the 100+ percentage goes, that is reasonably normal. It happens to everyone sooner or later (me included), and mostly happens if you choose to restart the service instead of rebooting the device. A reboot should help (always does for me). But even if it doesn't, there's no reason to panic - it's just a number. It does not mean your battery is being severely overcharged lol.
I see you're using an older version of the app. You should try upgrading. Not to say a newer version will make any kind of difference, but hey, newer is better, right?

1. I already pulled the battery but it didn't helped me.
2. Long press on power does nothing.
3. I'm looking for someone who can tell me if the battery is ok using a multimeter
but i think it's very strange, because even without battery the phone should turn on screen when plugged to the wall charger.
4. Thank you.

1. Oops didn't realize that you connected your phone to pc without battery, Sorry
2. Ok, was just a theory
3. It should be alright, (if you know which pins to connect ) but you can read through this guide.
4. You're welcome (but the thanks button is a lot easier...)
I hope you can get your phone to work again, but if charging via multimeter doesn't help, you'd have to send it in I think
It's alive!!!
I'm glad to tell you that my phone is alive again, and the only thing that I did was, leaving it in a box with the battery in, and today I tried to turn it on and it turned on, the charging via wall charger is also working and everything seems to be fine. Thanks for the help.

Are you sure that your battery didn't get wet? maybe it is on short-circuit, if I was you I would change it.

I'm pretty sure that it didn't get any wet, I still don't know what happened but it is working perfectly. Thanks for your help!

Question Pixel 6 bricked after flash Android 13 beta 4.1

Hello everyone!
Since I was tired of some bugs experienced on my Pixel 6 and after I discovered that the beta 4.1 was going to fix most of them, I decided to flash the image download from Google here.
I did this kind of thing a lot of time in the past, so I'm not new about flashing factory images, but something went wrong.
After having followed all the steps that Google recommend, the phone restarted and then got stuck on the white screen with the Google name/logo.
I waited several minutes but nothing happened, so I rebooted the phone (the only way was by pressing volume up and power button), re-flashed the beta but the same happened.
So I decided to try to flash the last stock android 12 image, but than, when the phone rebooted, I was alerted with a black screen and a message that says that the device is corrupt and to go to this site.
After continuing before the alert message, the situation was the same and the phone was stuck in the white screen with Google name/logo.
Now the battery is completely discharged and the phone doesn't charge, so I'm unable to do anything.
I'm 100% sure I flashed the correct images for Pixel 6 (oriole), the laptop is a MacBook Pro with an Anker cable I already used for the same thing and worked perfectly, the battery was at 70% when I did the first flash.
Any suggestion?
Thank you
I have never used any beta version of android, but one tool that i have found very useful is the android flash tool. https://flash.android.com/
In order to use this tool, I believe you at least need to get to recovery (hold power + vol down buttons).
Sorry for all the troubles you are having.

Thank you for your reply, I knew the tool also if I never used it.
The problem at the moment is that the device doesn't charge and turn on, otherwise I would also try the pixel repair site

Sorry to hear. I don't have any suggestions. It seems crazy that any amount of flashing issues would fully remove the ability to charge.

Have you tried to keep the charger plugged for 2-3 hours?
I had the same issue, but I had to force my pixel 6 to recovery mode.
Another thing I may suggest is in case you are not able to charge it:
Plug 65W charger (laptop charger) through usb-C port to pixel for 10 minutes.
You maybe discharged the battery completely, so a small boost my charge it.

I tried with the original charger for maybe one hour, then with an old 1 amp iphone charger but nothing happened. Now I try, like you suggest, with a 65W and maybe let it plugged for a couple of hours and see what happen.
What should I do? Just let the phone plugged in and wait the battery icon to appear on the screen or try to turn on the phone with power button/combo of buttons?
Thanks
I'm in the exact same boat, but on a raven. Any luck on recovering from this BS situation?

forum.xda-developers.com
If anyone has information about this thread. Please guide me below. I am very confused about that.
Can open it and attempt to charge the battery manually, or order new battery which should have some charge and replace the old.
