Hi guys!
It's been awihile since i've posted in this forum. Happy new year and all!
I need help! My note has had Cassie's xtralite 4.0.4 rom awhile and everything has worked great with it. But couple of weeks ago the battery had drained and i put my note to charger (official). But it never bootup since. Only black screen and no sign of any life.
What can i do with this? I still have warranty, but i quess, i should have to flash a original firmware, before i send this to samsung repaircenter? Is there any way, that i can do this? Thanks!
keep the phone plugged in to the charger for a couple of hours and then try to boot up the phone.. try download mode as well

Thanks, but no help. Still a dead note. :/
try a charged battery from a different note. if that too fails, then i don't think the service center can also start it up to find out what rom its on
actually if the phone didnt properly shutoff, you have the jb leaks bug. Reinstall rom, and all should be fine.
first turn off rom, then insert charger, watch charging indicator, let charge till full, then do the rom flashmob flash on safe kernel cleanly.
You're going to need an external battery charger. You can pick one up cheap off eBay.

Hi,
I have Cassie's ICS rom not JB. There shouldn't be any memory leak problem in this rom, that i know of. I've tried to put my note to download mode, when connected to PC + Odin. But no luck. I could send this to repair, but i'm afraid that samsung sees, that my note has a custom rom in it and i loose my warranty.
So, is there a change, that my battery is just dead?
thanks for your replies!
you should have tried a charged battery on your note till now.. first thing to check
Thanks!
Too bad, that my friends don't have Note. I'll check my local Cellphone store and ask to try different, charged battery from them. Can you tell me the reason, why my Note + charger wouldn't charge the battery?
I have seem many cases where the note is dead and the battery does not charge. If you have an external charger, even that would work to charge the battery.
few days ago having the same symptom as ur's .
but I'm using JB , after charge the battery n than press 3 button go to recovery mode n press reboot system now.
everything back to normal.
I'm not sure whether is it works on 4.0.4
The problem was the battery!
Thanks for your help guys! I had a change to try different battery and my Note booted up normally. I just ordered a new one.
Samsung batterys seem to really suck in quality. 7months and the battery is dead.

agree with you.. max life seems to be around 10 months of use. also depends on your charging cycle

This is what up I am up to right now, when the battery is below cca 95% then my Note dies, but still works under charger. Battery lasted around 12 months - never happened with HTC, but 20E for a new one is not a big deal either ...

This is my first post, so please excuse my naivety.
I recently flashed my Thrill to the most recent CM7 nightly (44 I believe) and since then my then fully charged battery will not report any charge. It constantly stays at 00% regardless of how many battery stat resets I do, or how long it stays on the charger.
I've tried reflashing CM7, as well as other firmwares in an attempt to right this wrong, but am coming up with nothing.
Is there a magic step I'm missing? I know my battery has a charge, but because it is reporting 00% the phone just shuts down.
Thanks in advance!
Actually if you flash CyanogenMod, your phone will not charge while off.
You could very well have a dead battery.
If you do then every time you boot to the OS the battery will die before it can charge fast enough.
What I suggest you try though is to charge it while turning it on and the minute it gets to the homescreen, turn off the screen.

That was my strategy yesterday at work. I kept it plugged in with the screen off for 4 hours, and still have a 00% charge. I suppose I could see if a new battery would help...but I usually use this as an opportunity to just buy a new phone.
I'll stop by the ATT store later today and see if they'll let me try and put a new battery in to see if that is the case.
Thank you!
flash any other rom,wait for stables from CM7

I've since reflashed to a different firmware and still have the same issue.
when you flash any kdz or bin rom,you are having the same problem?
Yup, I went to the 10k rom, and since all of the non-gb roms seem to be on multi-upload that is the only rom I seem to be able to access at the moment.
Are you wiping the Battery Stats from recovery?

I bought the phone on craigslist...so I'm not sure that is an option that would be open to me.
Hmm. Let's see.
Can you give me every exact step you did so I can try and replicate it?
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S II
1) Flashed CM7
2) Wiped battery stats (without restart)
3) Restarted (Got caught in a boot loop)
4) Realized I forgot to clear the cache, so I cleared it then reflashed CM7
5) Started up right away, but battery would no longer charge.
Hmm. I'll try it as soon as possible.
I was able to leave my phone on in ClockworkMod Recovery v5.8.1.5 for 2 hours last night. (I fell asleep before my phone powered down so it may have been longer).

My only thought is that somehow my battery got stuck in a state where it can only report 00%, regardless of the actual charge. The system sees a 00% battery and shuts down, because that is what the programming tells it to do.
I assume CWM doesn't look at the battery level while running, so it will continue to run regardless of what the perceived charge is...it'll just run until the battery actually dies.
Nowadays I have a weird problem. Even though I fully charge my phone, it behaves like battery is empty. It happens in two way:
1. After some usage, it can occur at 15%.
2. While showing battery is charged enough, you restart the phone. It starts as ciritical battery level.
3. For case 1, it can happen at higher levels as well. Screen starts flickering then phone shutsdown suddenly.
I tried calibration apk. I suspect it caused some problem also.
My system was stock 4.1.2 leak. I thought it may be reason, so I downgraded to ICS. But, I still have same problem...
Any1 has an idea? Battery or phone has problem or not?
May be time to get a new battery

I opened back cover now. I am very surprised. Battery got deformed. Middle part became thicker. It cannot fit to battery slot.
I think god saved me. It could explode.
This turned from question to possible Samsung defect. So, I am agree originally I made wrong choice. But, this topic is suitable for here in the light of my new finding.

I have the exact same problem! Been wanting to change the battery but haven't found it. If you buy a new battery and everything comes back to normal, please let us know!
I have same issue as OP. My screen starts to flicker at 15% as if it's about to lose power any second.
Happens with OEM battery as well as two aftermarket hyperion batteries.
Same here.. my batterry was a little bulged at the middle and i thought it is still ok.. then it started acting up..
-It says fully charged on the battery indicator while turned off and charging
- when I turn it on, it says 50%..
- when I get to recovery (philZ stock kernel recovery) it says 1%
Then it got worse and wont turn on when unplugged... Bought a battery at our local samsung store and all the problems went away!

Awesome!! That's what I wanted to know! Now I'll look for the battery.
Does anybody know why this happens?
I had this issue last month. Changed to Mugen battery. Everything's good now.
All the symptoms described here are dying battery issues. Have them replaced before your note dies.
I was unaware of this situation and I downgraded by JellBean to first GB, then ICS. I am lucky it did not shutdown during firmware install.
I went to some official Samsung technical service. They will give me a new battery soon. I am using my Sony Ericsson Walkman series phone Luckily I have iPad with cellular. Now, I will just wait and I will hope everything will be ok.
I bought a 7000 mAh battery on ebay. It's awesome! No problem now. My battery last all day :good:

So, I bought a Galaxy S too. Nice phone. Awesome display. Delightful user experience. Now, few days later, after rebooting my phone, battery level drops from like 90% to just 10%, and restores to the original level after some time. What should I do?

Not enough information. Are you rooted? Are you on a custom ROM or kernel? Have you tried running the battery completely dead until the phone shuts off, then charge it all the way to 100%?
Tappin the talk
If ur on a coustom rom..this issue will be there in beta versions of the rom!
Also which rom u using?

Sorry. Yes, it's rooted. Stock XXJVU, Semaphore kernel 2.5.0b (been using CF-Root and stock kernels before that, but there were no differences in battery level readings after reboot). Nope. How many 0-100% cycles would be necessary for it to do the trick (or fail)?

what i presume is that your battery hasnt been recalibearated.. it might be a kernel issue too..
Okay. What would be the best way to do the recalibration if it really is the culprit?

Tried it. Now my Galaxy shuts off without even letting me know. I was like browsing, tra lala lala la. Everything went fine, silky smooth. Then BAM! It shut off. When I turned the phone back on, the battery was fully empty. Help!
P.S. My battery is kinda... bulged. Could that be the cause?

Might be a faulty battery. Check if it's swollen or anything, and try replacing it if you can get a spare.
Yeah, you need a new battery. Get the 1800mah Anker.

Dev, I am facing problem after buying a used Galaxy i9000 .
1.I charged my battery fully [100%] , then using after 5/6hr when battery goes down to 34%-35% , the Cell phone suddenly got shut down , When I plug it in , then it says battery was empty . Then I have to charge it again .
2.When battery is 66%-67% , I tun off my phone and started after 5min , I saw it's only 17% !!!
What is the remedy/ solution for this problem .
[Don't say to change ROM/kernel/ clean delvik cache , I have already done them]
Do this problem will be solved by Changing battery ?

Yes, as Knuckle said you will need a new battery perhaps the 1800 MAh.
Hope i helped
Is there any battery on eBay you guys would recommend (free shipping, battery price up to $10 if possible)?

I thought that someone bought such stuff on eBay and could suggest me some reliable seller(s) so that I don't buy some fake garbage labeled as Anker that will blow up in my pocket. Nevermind.
Okay, in order to not experience bad battery life again, what exactly should I do once my battery arrives? Wipe battery stats, few 0-100% cycles, later just make sure battery never goes below, say, 25%, and I should be fine? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Yeah, pretty much what you just said. Wiping the battery stats is a bit pointless but do it if it makes you feel good
Polarcell or Anker are the ones to get. There aren't any fakes of those that I've heard of. All the fakes I've seen claim silly capacities.

Is your Galaxy overclocked?
I mean, consider lowering your CPU clock as it seemingly stopped sudden blackouts on my Galaxy.
EDIT: Nope, it didn't.
I had same problem. Bulged battery. I bought a new battery and it fixed the problem
You need a new one!

I reckon it's probably the battery itself, I had a similar issue last weekend. The battery has been perfect for over a year, then it simply stopped charging. I replaced the charger (I use a non Samsung charger) but no improvement so I changed the battery and now it's bettery
Good luck.

You mean is the same issues with me ?
so one more question...
the original battery is 2500 mAH, so can i able to use 3000mAH Sun global brand?
You could try but personally I would have an OEM battery as my default. Personal choice.

Hello everyone.
Congratulations to everyone responsible for this forum, and all it´s users, it´s just amazing. Everytime I have an issue with my X8 just come here and the solution is always easy to find... bust this time it isn´t so :crying:.
I´ve been using lot´s of kernels and roms, for a long time and never had such a problem.
Been using latest kernel for a while (nAa-jb) and last week got stuck in bootloop, then came some sort of white led and then restarted.
Tried to install other kernels, flashed with flashtool, but always got stuck in bootloop,
The last thing i did was flash the stock kernel, but when it restarted, never came back to life, no leds, no screen, not even vibration.
I think the kernel got messed up when flashing, because i think the battery was almost drained, no that i think of it, red led sometimes appeared as well as the white led before restart...
No flashtool, no sony ericsson repair, nothing... the x8 never gets recognised...
I guess I´ve read all xda threads related to xperias, all battery issues, all red lights of death, hard restets, etc, etc... and nothing.
The only thing I haven´t tried is leave the phone in wall charge for several days and make the battery restart itself. Should i try this?
Last resort is go to the SE assistance, but warranty is long gone..
Anyone can help me? Thanks

how can you charge a dead HARDBRICKED phone? dead motherboard.
if you want to charge the battery take out it buy a universal charger(external battery charger)
i already bought that one in my country only cost about 5 US dollar.
charge it with that charger and try your luck again.
