Hi xda forum users...
I have a X10i, and then 2 weeks ago i bought a X10 mini pro for my wife...
She have not used it for that mutch, only a little talk and a few sms messages...
It was not rooted, and have not been under any hard hardware use...
The last few days the battery was really bad, in the morning it said 100% charged, but after only 6 hours it went dead...
Then today, the phone went dead after again 5 or 6 hours, but now it cant charge anymore, and the phone is dead...
Not even a little light or the vibrator shows/feels if you try to turn it on...
I have offcource tried my charger also, and tried my phone on her charger, to see if it perhaps was her charger that was dead, but no...
So my question is:
Have you heard of any other with the same problems, or have we perhaps just been that unlucky to get a faulty phone ??
Had mine for 2.5 weeks now. Battery lasts for ~1.5 days, everything works fine. Even dropped it by accident twice and there don't seem to be any issues.
Since you haven't messed with it it would be easy to get a replacement.
Mine hasn't had any issues but my mate also bought one and just like yours it had a sucky battery and refused to charge after 4 days.
He went to the store and they immediately replaced it, the storekeeper suspected there was some fault in the wiring.
Hello,
I have a new SGS2 two weeks old. a few days ago my phone rebooted itself and reorganised all my apps, the next days it rebooted itself another 5-6 times. yesterday it just turned off and I needed to restart it. meanwhile I bought an additional original battery and an original samsung cradle charger on ebay
today my original battery was on 5% so I switched to the new one and put my old one in the cradle charger, when I finished the new battery and tried to use the old one that is suppose to be charged the phone is not responding with it and not charging it. My ROM is the original I havent changed anything.
Q1 anything about the rebooting problem, what can cause it? how to fix?
Q2 can the cradle charger ruine my battery?
Hello,
I bought my Samsung gs2 just over a year ago. I had issues with the battary life all the time (It sometimes lost 20% in a few minutes without reason), but many other gs2 users have similar problems, so I just ignored it. 2 weeks ago, after I unplugged it, it suddenly lost 90% of the battery in an hour, and got extremly hot (the heat wasn't coming from the top of the phone where the cpu is, but from the middle of the it). I shut it down and removed the battery. When I switched it back on it had only 1% left. Now it is completely dead.
The Battery is working properly in my brothers phone, and I reproduced this with 2 other batteries. I suspect there is some kind of hardware damage. When I try to charge it, it displays an overheating alert (both switched on and off), and doesn't charge at all. Now the battery is so low, it doesn't display anything any more.
Unfortunately I installed a custum ROM (wanam lite), because I tried to solve the battery issues, so Samsung won't repair it.
Can anyone please help me keeping the phone alive long enough to flash the original firmware?
Thanks in advance!
do you have any symptoms for a faulty usb port? as for flashing a stock rom just fully charge it (turned off) boot in download mode and fire away... or is it draining your battery in download mode too?
I have the same problem with my white S2 i9100T, sent back twice to repair, just got it back one week ago, finally the battery problem is gone! Last changed is the mainboard, first repair they swaped the battery and updated software(already latest firmware, what the hell they tried to update?).
My phone is just over a year old as well, it has battery problem since first day and only fixed now. As I know only the one made in Vietnam has this problem so yours made in Vietnam probably you will need to replace the mainboard. I am using a 2 yrs old black S2 made in Korea, exactly same model, very stable and never fail, that Vietnam one keep having unexpected behaver, another friend's Vietnam one is the same, recently another friend got one made in China, so fast so good.
Thanks for your replies. Unfortunately My phone seems to drain the battery even when switched off, and it isn't possible to charge it, no matter whether it is on or off. So my only option is to ask somone else to charge the battery, and then try flashing the original software. How long do you think flashing will take? Even if the battery is fully charged, I don't have power for more than half an hour.
Another question: Does anyone know if it is possible to reset the flash counter without booting the phone? I doubt that I will have enough time to install triangle away...
do you have better battery stats? It'll tell you what the problem is more accurately.. I just check it when I have battery issues

I have the same problem recently. I am hoping it is the charging board... new one should be arriving this week. If that doesn't do it I am resigned to the fact that my phone's main board is faulty and it's time to upgrade.

Hi everyone! I've a problem that's bothering me since i've bought this phone. Let's start from the first day when my beautiful gs2 arrived and there's no way it would turn on, i tried charge the battery but it didn't work too, it displayed the grey battery logo and then reboot in a loop. Then magically after some hours it started working. After a few months the phone started rebooting or powering off by itself and after a few more weeks it wouldn't turn on or charge like the first day and like that it returned to life after few days. I took it to a samsung point and they changed the usb connector.
It all worked fine for a few months and then here we were again and the phone died and turn to life after few days and also this time they changed the usb connector.
Now it's begun rebooting again and i think it won't turn on few weeks from now.
I've noticed that when the phone reboot there's a vertical drop in the battery charge, almost to zero, only to recharges by itself instantaneously after rebooting. Few days ago the phone didn't reboot but the battery charge went instantaneously from 60% to 10% and then started slowly charging by itself till almost 25%.
What do you think about it? I'm starting to think the problem is the battery chip that control the charge, is it possible? It's integrated in the battery right? so if i change it the gs2 would be ok?
i would personally try another battery.
if that doesnt work, it might be the u503 chip on the phone.
i recently had an issue with that chip after slight water damage (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2462207) and noticed the same issue with the battery level, and it not turning on sometimes. tried with 3 different batteries and had the same problem.
got rid of the u503 chip, and its working fine now.
The problem is i don't have another battery. I tried the battery of a friend and it came back to life but there's no way to tell if it did the trick because it's random. The other times one second it was dead and the next one it was working again even without changing anything.
In my case when the phone reboot it doesn't get hotter so i think it's different from yours. More over is still under warranty so it's better not to touch it yet
ive had my s 2 for almost 3 years now. but a few months ago i needed to change the charger port as it was getting too loose to charge. but since changing it my phone wont charge at all. its been in a draw for a while and im only now deciding to fix it lol do i need another new charger port or is it something else? i bought a new battery at the same time and it hasnt had a charge since buying it due to this problm, will it still be ok or has it gone too far? many thanks to any one that can help
