thank u i thought it was a problem since i heard some one say that he had some hardware replaced by the service cener due to this, howevere so u experience the same flickering when wifi is on miui ? and btw how is the battery life with mintberry miui,and thaks for the fast reply
Always flickers when I turn wifi on mate, always has.
I find battery to be good on mintberry, but it really depends on your kernel and modem.... Give it a try, i guarantee you won't be disappointed.

Hey guys
I have a mate whose SGS i9000T will no longer turn on, it is about 5 months old, battery is fine and just died while the screen was off, was not even being used. The last app used was browser. Can't get into Recovery or download modes and the backlight doesn't even register while the AC is plugged in.
Any suggestions would be great or is this a hardware fault? which too me it sounds like
Theirs two possible reasons for this bud....1, custom firmware incorrectly flashed. 2, hardware. I had the same problem and I had to send mine off to Samsung, if you blame the damage on Kies, say after the update it wouldn't turn on they will fix it for free.

Cheers for the reply,
The only things applied were a lag fix that was weeks ago though so i doubt that is the problem, sounds like hardware problem then

No custom kernel or anything? And it just died? Does he tend to drop his phone a lot?

In that case I'd put it down to hardware bud! Are you in the UK? as we have dozens of Samsung service centres, just blame it on Kies if I were you, say after the update it wouldn't turn back on, and they'll fix it for nothing bud

hy guys! I have a problem. My phone is shutting down in my pocket . I used JVT with Semaphore . Now i returned to JVQ . I need to recalibrate my battery? I need an answer quickly ! thanks
No need to recalibrate battery. Probably a kernel problem - are you oc/uv?
Flash another kernel, use a kernel cleaning script - your issue should disappear.

Thanks man! i will apriciate . I returned now to JVQ with another kernel. we`ll see..
Good luck.

Problem persist !
i realise that my phone is shutting down when i hit it accidentaly. it is normal? Can be an hardware problem? Even if i shake it fast it is shutting down .Sometimes i found it closed in my pocket. What can i do? . Thanks!
Are you using stock battery - is it loose?
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
Yes, is stock battery. It`s autonomy is 1 day, 1 day and a half
Sounds like a service centre job mate.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using xda premium
After i returned to JVQ my phone work perfectly...Is a week from than and my phone not closed. I think that Semaphore 1.8 kernel was to blame.Thanks for all! Have a nice day !
Didn't I suggest changing kernel in my first post?????
Anyways, at least it's sorted.

I guess the problem is "sleep of death". use "load monitor"app for the solution.
Im hvg this flickering screen symptom right after my phone drop at 50% of battery. It will suddenly shut my phone off if i continue using it. And the worst part is, i cant turn it on until i charge it again. Any ideas?

Suprisingly still hvg that flickering screen at 2% after changing new batt ( original ).
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda premium
yes the screen flickers at <3%.. i have seen it in 3 notes... so i guess it happens
Usually this happen when the battery isn't original.
Its happened to me with fake battery. No problem with stock one.
I think battery issues could be case. Many nowadays including myself

it could happen with any battery if quality is not good or diminished. I think so at least Check your battery, does it look out of shape?
You could try a friends battery, or an alternative rom could also be another issue.
You can also experiment with the power saving features to turn them of.
Uninstall if any, power saving apps/ screenfilter apps.

Doesn't the warranty on batteries last for 12 months ? Why not get Samsung to replace it if it fails withing that time frame.
Then again, For the price of one, Is it worth all the aggro of sending it to Samsung, Waiting, Waiting some more, Then having it sent back ?
They do go pretty cheap online, And the Anker 5000mah are worth considering (except the size increase)

As they're classed as consumables I believe warranty on batteries is only 6 months, but I think it would be great if we could somehow make samsung aware of how short the battery life is on these, maybe some sort of petition.

Hey guys I just got a miui ROM running on my ace and the battery goes from full to empty in about a hour and half is there a fix anywhere for this I did have a look just I didn't see it buts that's not to say I didn't miss it. Would be grate full of any help
Sent from my GT-S5830 using xda premium
This problem could be could be due to the rom that you are using, although it seems strange for it to be that bad.
One thing you could try is underclocking to save power, it wont make too much difference but it is a start.
A second solution is to simply buy a new battery as your current one may just be old.
there is also the obvious basics: low screen brightness, stopping any unwanted services and try to steer away from live wallpapers
hope this helps.
You should test another rom
Change your ROM brother !
I've tryed a few rom's since I posted this battery must be done in. It fully charges in less than 10 mins and runs out in just over an hour fed up charging my phone lol

yes, its probably best to get a new on then, be careful though a lot of the ones on sale are fake so make sure that you find a real one.
hope you get it sorted

Hi everyone,
I'm having a Galaxy ExhibitG and it starts to shut down constantly everytime I open too many apps or run something too heavy. And it won't let me power on the phone and even if I can the bettery status went crazy (from 90% to 0% then 20%)
One solution to this is to plug my phone in the charger constantly, but I need to take it to work and school.
The problem actually started to happen after I flashed Linaro CM 10.1 romm by smartguy(for got the number)
Any idea why?
Thank you.
Sounds like you might have a bad battery
