SOS .. SOS .. - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Guys .. my Note is not powering up.
Did not install any ROM in the last 15 - 20 days... so surely not a brick.
Last running OS - CM 10 Nightlies .. If am not wrong a version in the first week of June ...
Did not update it after that..
Yesterday I was playing Ingress whole day while connecting my Not to a laptop using USB cable so as to keep it charged..
The battery percentage did go as low as 1% during the game but mobile was still on.
I did keep it for chargin a full night yesterday... Today morning was a surprise as the phone just does not switch on.
Some times is powers on and powers off in under 20 sex Even while it is connected to a power supply.
Tried to see if I can go into Download or Recover mode ... does not work that way too
Please help me out.. Tell me any way to revive my phone ...
At this point am unsure if it is the battery causing problems or the phone ...

The phone doesn't enter recovery as you have a critically low battery, try that battery in another phone & try another battery in your phone. Your phone is recognised on the laptop right?

No other phone where this battery can fit.
BTW... I tried my old battery in the phone.. Then the new battery in again and it started charging..
Thanks guys

This is why you should always get a charger for the battery, out of the phone.

I agree.. Am also looking out for a dock for this model now.. Hoping to charge both phone and battery at same time.. The spare does come handy

Calibrate your battery.
Let it empty untill blackout. Take out battery for 2 min then put it back again, and charge it to full, do not push the on button while charging.
My suggestion is to install and SPYCPU podesiš processor clock so you would not spend the battery more than they need. We also have a large selection governo, naćićeš best balance of performance and battery life.
Thanks jonpaslim! i will try to do that and will update the results

Hi dickwyn, thanks for your reply.
Done with the installation. But it seems not doing anything.. As in 'nothing to report' is that normal?

The total of 1 week I was on both OS builds I had these issues that I identified to be the battery:
Facebook
GPSD
and then not going into deep sleep (the phone gets warm)
Badass Battery (now another name, but you can still search Badass battery) and BBS (Better Battery Stats) helped me.
Thanks zkye.
So far i hv been using pretty alot of apps. Been using carat,netqin and cpu spy. Well the batt is still i would say average.. Im wondering how to read this thing on cpu spy. Especially the deep sleep graph. Is it sufficient? Or am i doing the wrong thing or what?

You can check version in settings, then about phone in bottom Guess you are on stock. Be carefull wiping, factory resetting and deleting large files as kernel can trigger a bug in emmc chip, corrupting partitions.
good you started analysing root causes. Always best case.
now if you dont care for warrantee you can follow directions from this post http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=29139461 to get back to starting point of install. Or to install the awesome speedmod kernel.
Alteratively you can add apps one by one and together with battery usage analysed you can fin culprits. With tools like betterbatterystats, cpu spy and badassbattery monitor

did you try re-calibrating your battery?
Hi xfox,
Done with calibrating as in let it empty, take out the batt for a while then turn it on again. It seems okay for now. Is there any other way instead? Im sorry for asking this stupid question again and again. And thank to all of ya for replying my so called newby question. Lol.

Thanks baz,
How i wish i could use those speedmod kernel and so on. Well im quite afraid to root it cuz im not too sure that im gonna use this phone for a long time. As the phone value will decrease if i void the warranty. But thx for replying my post tho. As for now im still monitoring my batt behaviour.

Galaxy Note problem
When I got my Galaxy Note, the battery used to last for 10 hrs on GB. After upgrading to ICS, that time dropped to 8 hrs. And after ICS updates, it went down to less than 4 hrs since it was discharging much fatser than charging, and it was the same whether I used the original power charger or direct USB cable.
The original charger is an adapter + USB cable.
Everything went fine when i changed the USB and used the one originally used to charge the Sony 3D glasses.
Now it's charging normally and the discharge rate is around 8% /hr with WIFI and mobile data ON.
Hope it will work for you.

[Q] I need help. The phone is dead

I was usig htc one with android revolution HD 7.1 about a month, it went perfect , and one night when he was in standy by I wanted to open it to check email but did not want to open, I tried several times to press the power button, then tried power + volume up went into bootloader and I rebooted thinking it's something one time. After my picture appears dark from HTC and not react to any key combination. when I connect the USB or charger does not light no light nothing. I noticed today that after 12 hours after I left it completely dead after I connect the charger the red light lit up sign that is loading, I opened it and I was glad to go, the battery was at 1% I played little with him after I left to charge. After 30 minutes when I tried to open same problem completely dead stop responding to any order and then all stand there. I want to send it to warranty but do not know if I receive it because it's modified software and not stock. Can someone help me?
its sounds like a battery problem to me.

Yes I used a Sony Xperia Charger but I don't think this is the problem... My biggest problem is if they will receive it in warranty change with the bootloader unlocked , and android revolution hd in it.. I think increasingly more like it would be a problem with the battery. at intervals of 5-6 hours if you stay connected to the charger lit about 10 minutes and can use after dying ..
How can I copy on sd card from bootloader/recovery ?

Strange shut down on Low battery

Hi everybody.. i'm encountering this problem with my HTC one. When I reach the 20 %-9 % range of the battery the one shut down. Try to reboot and shut down again on lock screen.then I'm forceed to put it on charge. Why this strange behavior ? Battery is broken or not calibrated?or a bug? Please help !!
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 4 Beta
If i remember their is a battery calibration file somewhere in the system, if it is deleted it causes the phone to re-calibrate the battery gauge, have you tried a battery re-calibration app from the app store, i think this is what they do.

All stock!

If it`s all stock and you dont want to root, all you can do is full charge and then run it till it shuts down a couple of times and hope the battery gauge learns the true battery capacity, if this does not work.
Or you could try charging it to 100% and keep it plugged in, then do a restore to factory defaults while plugged in, then see if that fixes it.
If this does not work, you might have a faulty battery, get a replacement phone.

Found this fix online, see if it works.
Option 2: (No Root) Physical Battery Calibration This option is also very simple, but at the same time, a little more time consuming. If you have a rooted device, Option 1 is definitely the way to go. However, if you don’t know what “root” means, stick with Option 2 and go check out the root section of Android Authority.
Turn your phone on and charge it for 8 hours or more.
Unplug the charger.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug the charger.
Turn on the phone and wait 2 minutes.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug, turn it on and use as normal. Your battery life should now be a lot better.

I had buggy touch bug but it was loooooong time ago. It was loking like that :
When have opened app drawer or any app it started running and i always end at homescreen when i was trying to do something on my phone while battery was charging.
But i cant remember how and when this problem was gone but i can said this :
One day touch was buggy and in second it was OK (not buggy)
If this problem will exist very long go to service. May your microusb port is touching LCD. And when you connect charger LCD feels power as a touch and starts bugging.

It exists in battery. I charged with a non-original charger (or it was a blackberry charger lol i don't remember exactly) and battery damaged. Then I switched another original battery and never used non-original charger, now it's okay. Changing voltages probably won't help, I recommend you to take a samsung charger and samsung 1500mAh battery then you can play with voltages too.
Thanks all at first.
But guys. A new batery here is R$130 ($60). I have already bought one new 2 months ago.
Cant a just make my batery get used to the original charger voltage?
Sent from my GT-I9070 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
If you buy it only for 2 months ago, then you still have warranty and must return to seller for change it.
Correct?
Powered by CM10.2
Indeed. So i tell them that my phone batery has got addicted to another voltage then the original samsung charger?
I will do that. But for those that doesnt have warranty and are running out of money, is tjere something they can do?
