[Q] Galaxy Note Started freezing very often - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello Experts,
My battery was holding charge for not more than 5 hours daily hence I wanted to take a physical look at the battery. After inspecting the battery i found that battery had a bulge. Anyways i decided to continue on same battery for some time and inserted the battery back again, but the note refused to boot. Even it boots, it freezes immediately after 7-8 seconds. I tried various recommendations on the forum but nothing is working.
Here is the solutions I tried:
1. Replaced the battery with colleague's note w/o success.
2. Flashed my ROM back but again same symptoms, phone freezes after 6-7 seconds.
I am currently running superbeans 1.3.1. Had installed this 4 months back but phone was never so unstable.
Please help.

Try the app called "Dummy file generator" I've heard that this app helped to some people to avoid freezes

Battery Drain on G1

Guys,I own a T Mobile G1 Android 1.6 Phone and recently I’m facing some problems. The problem that appeared recently is with the battery drain. before some days ago the battery of my G1 lasted up to 4-5 days, without using Wireless, GPS, and Bluetooth. If I used the mentioned services normally the battery lasted up to two days. But recently the battery is draining too fast. Within 4 hours the battery goes down less then 15% even I do not use any mentioned services. I keep my phone on standby, without talking a single minute with the phone, not using any service etc, and again it goes down very quick. I took some measures according to HTC instructions how to save the battery but again it does not function. I uninstalled all applications and reset the phone to factory setting by again same thing. Then I searched on the Google some instructions, I tried also that one’s but again it does not function. I always used HTC charger that came with the phone but again same problem. What is the strangest thing that after some days the battery gets back and works perfectly for two weeks, which means I use the phone normally without charging 4-5 days. As I operate very well with the smartphones, Pocket PC’s etc I start analyzing G1 and monitoring very closely why the battery goes down, I monitored for a long time the query under the :About Phone-Battery use- and I see there that Andorid OS is using the battery from 76% up to 85%. Now it came to my mind that something is keeping engaged or it keeps running the Andorid OS always on. Then I suspected that thre my be any virus on my phone, but I installed form Market Flexilis/lookout antivirus application, but there was no virus and again the battery goes very quickly down. As I said after sometime the system returns to normal and the battery lasts for 4-5 days, and when I check the information under Phone,Battery use, I see that the Andorid OS is spending only 6% of the battery. Comparing with the previous description it is a huge difference. According to my opinion there is a small problem with any file which keeps always running to much the Andorid OS. Can you please give me any instruction why Andorid OS is spending that much the battery? Or give me any instruction how to prevent this operation that keeps Android OS to much engaged? or is there any programming mistake?, is there any need for update?, do I need to root my phone as it is not rooted? The reason why I’m thinking that there is a technical problem is because sometimes the system gets back to normal and sometimes it goes out of normal running. I appreciate a lot if you could help me to resolve the mentioned problem.
I've noticed the same thing on my G1 sometimes there is fast battery drain and it seems associated with Android OS. The percentage is over 70%. I also notice it be associated with the display as well. Could be that there is some process that won't stop running and is using Android OS or it could be that on other occasions the display is not going into sleep mode properly. I wish I knew how to fix these problems but I don't. I just observe them.
The battery issue, is an up and down problem for me. Sometime I can go through it in one day or less, other days it will last me for 2 plus days.
It also could be that the battery need replacing. Who's know.
I just bought a 2nd hand G1 - works just fine. I rooted and installed CM6.1.
My battery drains within 1-2 hours. I've tried various methods of resetting stats, with no luck. How frustrating! I wonder if it's a battery hardware problem or software?

I also faced bad battery life on various roms. Since I'm using COS-DS (android 2.3.3) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950765 and the Biffmod kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=950765 the phone runs more than 24h when texting and calling. Of course you should apply the 14MB RAM hack in comination with this kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=831139. On standby (everything off, except data and 3g) my G1 runs >48h, before it needs to be plugged in.

Sounds like the basic description of the USB Charging Bug.
The bug triggers if the G1 is using a kernel starting 2.6.35 and onward tree, and charged using the USB instead of AC wall charger.
A couple of option to avoid the super discharge after that (you can use either);
1. Reboot after you unplug the USB charger.
2. Change kernel to one from 2.6.34 tree
You can also visit the Dev sub-forum, there's a thread there discussing the debugging process.
It is so unpredictable for me...I have just got into the habit of a reboot after unplugging USB.
Battery drain on the G1
I have the same problem. Even on standby it drops to less than half of its battery life. Sometimes its worse. today i noticed that the battery percentage was at 84. Next thing I know the phone reboots itself and it displays that it has 1% battery, battery icon empty all in red and LED flashing in red. Then I turn it off connect it to the charger, after a couple of seconds I turn it back on and says its 90 something percent. Could be a virus or just a battery bug,that's my guess. I scanned the phone with Lookout Security and there was no Virus,malware or spyware found.
I want to try different kernels for this battery issue but want to make sure I am installing the right one.
I have CM6.1 with 2.22.23.02 radio and DangerSPL installed. Can I just load any of the kernels built for EBI0?
Specifically, can I flash the kernel in the 1st post here? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1010932
Thanks.

[Q] Battery issue

Hey guys. I have one problem with my GT-p1000's battery. The tab was bought in UK in february and it had XXJK5 (November 2010) rom flashed in, also i haven't flashed any other roms yet.
So the problem is:
I use the wall charger to charge my tab and I usually plug it when I go sleep.
By the 19th of may it kept the charge well about 12 hours of intensive usage (web surfing via 3g/listening to music/playing HD games etc.) and I was satisfied enough.
But 3 days ago it started to claim constantly day by day on 47% that the battery is very low (1%) . I tried rebooting it time after time, deleting batterystats.bin file using root explorer, even full drain of battery up until it had no power to start and full cycle charging then, but all these attempts gave no result.
In other words, the battery suddenly drops from 47% to 1%.
I have no idea what to do in this case. Any suggestions?
P.S. Don't suggest me to flash newer rom, because it won't help to solve the problem. A friend of mine had the same problem with his tab and he tried a lot of different roms to flash, but it didn't help. He couldn't find any other solution and he finally sold it.
Sorry mate, i have the same problem. I can't use my Tab longer then 3 hours with very mildly use. From 80% to 3% in a flash, shutdown etc.
I tried lots of roms, resetting/deleting battery stats, touching the screen while turning on the tab, nothing helped.
The only thing i did not try was opening the Tab and remove the battery from the mainboard for a while. Some people say that helped. I could not find the right screwdriver so i just sent it to a repair center. I hope they will find out what's wrong.
Hello,
I had the same problem too, wiping battery stat did not help.
Flashing to Overcome v2.0 rc1 helped some people
but what I did was open up the tab with a tri wing screwdriver and unplugged battery for 30 mins and then plug it back in and it solved the issue.

I have the exact same problem, am about to buy a new battery tomorrow unless someone else has another solution? This might not be the proper forum but in here at least many i9001 users will read it.
I've had this problem for about a week, was very annoying while on holiday. I've tried using BroodROM BE 1.0, Stock KQE and now back to stock KPG.
Try ebay - you can easily find decent batteries for 5$ there.

Well yes I'm going to try a different battery soon but the odd thing is after my battery charge seems to drop down to 5% or so, it starts charging to about its original charge level without a charger connected. So it's basically 80%->drop to 5%->charge back to 60% without charger.
i'll try now to do a hard reset, go back to stock rom, then reinstall an costum rom,
will tell you if it works!
Plz mods remove/delete this sheeyat.. this is

i have used TeamWin Recovery for wipe all partition becouse with hard reset don't wipe /system and internal sd.

I thought I was the only one with this problem. I charge my battery to full and it starts draining normally. Then, when around 30-80% battery remaining, it turns off. It only turns off when you use it for a while, when the screen is off it stays on normally. After rebooting it turns off within a minute or so. This continues for a few reboots with the battery level remaining roughly the same. Eventually after a few boots it shows 3-4% of battery, after which I of course have to charge. Also tried calibrating and tried different roms but it still remains. I ALSO SWAPPED MY BATTERY WITH A FRIEND BUT IT DIDN'T HELP! It worked like a charm for him but I still got turn offs with his battery.
If i were you Guys, i would install stock rom and hand in my phone under warranty ( of course if you still have it ). Because if this occurs even when u swap battery, let samsung play with you phone then
Its not your battery..restore your phone to the way it was and give it to samsung
i'm getting pissed of now, even with the stock rom it randomly shutsdown.
i don't have any warrenty so i can't give it back to samsung
In case anyone's still wondering, in my case it did turn out to be a fried battery. If anyone else is experiencing the same issues I was, just check your battery to see whether or not it is swollen. If it's bigger than it should be, that probably means it's fried and you should replace it. I'm happily running custom roms without any trouble again now, and battery life is awesome!

Sorry Rajito, but you are having a serious problem, i think the motherboard is the problem, my friend had the same problem with his I9000 S simple. You shoud go to a service !
Hi guys,
I also have this problem, my phone randomly turns off and when I turn it on, it shows much less remaining battery percentage than before. (please see attached image) After turning on the value is increasing, sometimes from ~5% to 30-40% or more...
Now I have CM10 Jelly Bean flashed, but CM9 did the same sometimes but much more rarely than on JB. Today the phone 'died' three times until noon.

Yeah that's the exact same problem I had. In my case it turned out to be a fried battery, see if it's swollen or not, if you lay your battery on a table it should stay still and not wobble around. If the battery's not flat but swollen that means your battery is fried. In this case good news because you can easily replace it

unfortunately it is absolutely not swollen, its fully flat :\
besides this I put out the battery now and put it back and it is showing only 2% percent of battery so maybe my battery is wrong
UPDATE: after uninstalling the pro version of Battery Indicator there were no random shutdowns at all, but the free version is fine o.0

[Q] Battery problem (not draining problems)

Hey guys, I am not so sure how to describe this problem, but I'll just tell you what exactly is happening.
Firstly, the main problem is whenever I connect to WIFI/3G, the phone shuts itself down in about 2 mins of use, even if the battery is at about 70%+. After I turn it back on, it only has 1%- and it shuts down again. I tried to turn it in Recovery mod, so the battery will completely discharge (with screen on), but it didnt happen. Then I turned it on again- And now the battery was 20%
Now, I noticed that I can use the phone for music (I listened to music for 1.5 hours straight without it turning off) (also, it didnt have a SIM card inside, so it was on Airplane Mode).
I bought the phone a year and a half ago, and used it for about a year (changed MANY roms when it was mine), and about 6 months ago, I gave it to my mom cuz I bought myself a Galaxy Nexus. I left her with CM9 or Darkys rom (not so sure about that), and she told me about this problem 2 months ago.
Im not so sure the problem is with the battery, because I have the main battery, and 2 other batteries ordered from eBay (weaker ones).
Also, the main (and maybe just a bit of the 2 other) battery inflated (not so sure how to say that, as English is not my main language) so much that you cant even close the back door of the phone.
I tried changing Roms, from GB to JB- nothing helped. Willing to hear everything you got.
Thanks, Mark.

[Q] Galaxy Note GT N7000 Battery Drain and Screen Flickering issues

Hi Guys,
I have bought my Galaxy note GT N7000 more than an year ago. I still consider myself as a newbie to android and I still have Gingerbread 2.3.6 on my GT N7000.
Everything was working fine until recently the battery was draining a bit more quickly than usual. Charging to 100% is also very fast taking only 45-60 mins. Normally it would take 2-3 hours previously. I observed this odd phenomenon only a month ago. It was the time when I download many GO Locker themes free using GETJAR. Please note that I downloaded many apps that GETJAR asked me download and I downloaded apps only from Playstore. It was also during this period that I put a Transcend Micro SDHC 16GB class 4 card into my GT N7000. I also have tried removing many apps that got via GETJAR but still the battery drain issue is present
Today I was hearing music and playing temple run, When the battery levels goes below 30%, the screen begins to flicker. However I ignored this and continued playing and the flickering frequency was increased and there was constant flickering when the charge was around 15% and finally when the charge was around 11% the phone was powered off automatically. Even I tried to power on, it would not come and then I have to remove the battery for a few min and placed it back and powered the device and only then it was powered on.
I'd appreciate, if anyone could let me know how to troubleshoot these issues. Please note that I don't want to factory reset my GT N7000 as I want to retain all my apps as well as Games data without rooting.
Regards,
K.Ramesh Karthik.

+Whiskeyjack4855 - Thanks for the reply. Are you sure about it? Because one of colleagues told me that it could be due to a huge number of app that I have installed on my phablet. Will the battery die within 2 years as I bought my phablet on Dec 2011?
Regards,

Lot of issues on battery has bee reported after one year of usage.
Mine died after 14 months, the battery began to swell and during usage i think it heats up and comes away from the contacts.
A new battery completely fixed my problems so it should do for you too. Buy an official sammy one, it was only £8 in uk from amazon. Well worth it

Same problem after updating to JB official ROM
Hi,
I have the same problem after updating to JB official ROM. After the screen flickers, the phone turns off, and when I turn it on again, the battery level drops insanely. If turn on again, I have another battery level, until screen starts flickering again. This happens over and over again...
Once I plug it in, it starts behaving "normally" and after 2 or 3 hours, it starts this crazy cycle again.
This didn't happen before the update.
Any ideas?

This exact thing happened to me just recently (Note is from original release batch, so nearly 18-month-old battery) - replaced the battery with an official Samsung one off of Amazon UK and it stopped. Make sure you get one from a decent supplier, or the "fulfilled by Amazon" one: first time I got a dud battery that wouldn't even turn on.
My battery was bulging - it doesn't fit in the gap properly and the back cover has a bit of play that was never there before.
same here..
only yesterday...new battery..2 months old?
It happened with me even with ics, my phone came pre installed with. But flickering only happens when my battery reaches 1 percent. Usually 2-3 mins after it reaches 1 percent. And then soon the phone turns off. Basically it happens just a few seconds to a minute when the phone is about to turn off. Otherwise it doesn't happen. This is my 4th note. It never happened on my previous 3. Hope that helps.

I'm having this same issue now... I've ordered a new battery from Amazon.... hope it solves the problem
If the battery drains like hell, and it's bulging, get a new battery. It solves the problem. I had this problem last week, and new battery got rid of it.
Me and my wife bought our notes at the sane time but her battery lasted a few months longer than mine did.
Seems like a new battery after a year or so it's inevitable.

Same here battery 16 months old
Same here, my battery is 16 months old (now having a bulge too). Screen flickers @lower battery levels pretty much every time, though never when phone is connected to charger.
It seems Samsung Battery Life is less than Nokia
same issue exactly appeared after 17 months of buying.
I was charging the mobile via Car Charger which reduced the battery life.
after buying a new one, it worked OK but to be in safe side I upgraded OS to ICS.
It seems Samsung Battery Life is less than Nokia !!!!
The same problem
Actually i do have the same problem 5 days ago,mine is 15 months old Galaxy Note holding Jellybean 4.1.2 XXLT5 ofw . I asked help from specialist in mobile phones and he told me to change the battery immediately , so i asked for the battery (Original one from Samsung retailer) and it will be delivered for me this Monday. I'll keep you informed by details.
---------- Post added at 05:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:03 PM ----------
I noticed also the flickering is accompanied by heat in the device processor , at the end of the discharging process (20 % 10% battery signal) or while surfing the 3G for longer time . sometimes it shut down suddenly
