My phone suddenly just shuts down when I'm using it... not a "powering off" but just out of nowhere turns off
Anyone know what the problem might be?
I've had this same issue before, so I bought a new battery last month and it worked great until just last week...
I've tried resetting the battery stats....nothing....
The battery still fully charges and shows the correct percentage when I plug in the charger to use...
Could it be the ROM or battery issue?
....I'm currently using cannon's rom... 2.2.1
Anyone know how to fix?..... thanks

Something to take note, What are you doing when it does this?
-Surfing net on the phone
-Listening to music
-Charging
-Tethering
Keeping in mind that the phone will shut its self down (it should) if your battery starts to over heat. On my Hero the charge light flashes before it shuts down and it gets really hot to the touch. Also at higher heat temps, overall battery life suffers.
my phones shuts down usually when wifi is on and im sirfing or using youtube app or google maps(every time i use wifi for a while this happens...)
it also shuts down rarely on calls and sometimes when im trying to flash a new rom...
it doesnt powers on until i connect it on AC...
I REALLY NEED HELP...
ps:if i change the battery will my problem been solved?

it turns off randomly...even when im just browsing through the home screens... a full charge will last me like 5 minutes max.... no matter what im doing an the battery doesnt overheat at all...
and when i plug it in to the charger, it shows the correct percentage.. well at least an estimate of what it could be (for about 5 min of use before shut down= 95%)
I have the same problem, It is extremely frustrating.
The shutdowns would happen randomly during surfing the net or using google maps. It would shut down out of no where and it would be impossible to turn back without being plugged into a charger since the phone thinks it battery is at 0 even it was just charged to full before the shutdown. I tried to calibrate the battery but it would just shut down while I'm trying to burn through the charge with the screen on. This is the such a nuisance, can't even get through one day.
I am using biffmod 1.8 so I don't know if this is a rom related problem.
I'm havuing the exact same problem. Even with a full battery, the pgone will shut down when I do anything more than a text or two here and there. When I put it on the charger I will still have a significant amount of power left. I've tried doing full wipes and changing roms. I think it might actually be related to the radio. This began after I updated the radio. It would get stck on formatting the cache. I tried going back to the old radio, but the problem has persisted.. and it also got stuck on formatting cache...
I hope someone can help with this bc it pretty much renders the phone useless when it's not being charged. =\
try change the battery...this solve my prob
you could try recalibrating the battery.
let your phone die.
plug it in for so long that you are 100% sure that it is full.
boot to recovery wipe battery stats.
boot normal
use it and let it die.
recharge again until its full BEFORE booting it.
if you sure its full boot normal.
if you follow this cycle some times it should be fine.
Only issue: you have to wait long until its full and you always have to be near an ac
i've tried re-callibration.. guess i will have to get another battery..
i don't think it's the battery though bc others with the same problem said that the problem persisted after getting a new battery.. =\ we'll see.. thanks for the replies.
Hi,
I have now had 2 occasions where my LG OX2 were automatically shut!!
I took it of the charger this morning, screen brightened, all normal. After 5 min. when I needed it, the phone was off. Later I had one more like this. Got to work and after some hours it was off when I needed it! I really don't get it. Battery was full.
I am on 2.2.2, rootet.
Has anyone had same experince??
I had that issue aswell.
Had that aswell yesterday morning, had to take the batteri out and put it back in, to get it back on
Same here.
Hi guys. Thanks for your answers. This is indeed very strange. This could be something that I will not accept for a smartphone this price. I will contact LG.
Are yours also rootet and have you removed anything?
Cheers.
Rooted. Not removed anything at all.
You mentioned that you have rooted the phone, did you freeze any applications?
Same here.
Only happened once and it was plugged into a charger (and would have been at 100%).
Battery pull was the only thing that worked.
I'll add this thread to the bugs thread.
Have not happend to me yet. I have used it for 1 day now. And 3 charges. No problems.
Rooted and deleted some apps.

Nope.

So it seems to happens just on the rooted phones. Maybe the root its not stable yet?
No, i have not yet roted and i had the same problem yesterday. Nothing so far today though.
Optimus S ... same problem!
It seems like Optimus S have the same problem
Here a link :
http://forum.androidcentral.com/lg-optimus-s/47567-phone-shuts-off-when-charging.html
Mine is not rooted, I had around 54% battery when I left work. Phone rebooted two times during the 15min walk home, once during a call and once when all I was doing was swiping around the homescreens... :/
My o2x rebooted once today, with 50% battery left.. Edit: Mine is also rooted and I have frozen the car home app.
This is very distressing. Being that this problem affects the 2x, rooted or not, then it is def. a hardware issue. Possibly solely a battery issue, or the design to which where the battery is housed (connectors), or simply power hit/miss circuitry design. My advice is, if it occurs enough not to annoy you (meaning, you don't want to deal w/ a return/exchange & don't mind the re-booting) then keep it. I believe that no software patch can fix this & for such an expensive device, I would return it for a fresh unit.

I did withnis this twice yesterday.
The phone doesn't shut down. It is a huge lag.
It happend the 3th time. I didn't pull out the battery, after 20sec that I pressed the power button for the screen to light up, the screen showed.
So it is lagg.
Not rooted. And to make it clear i'm talking about the phone screen not turning on, so you have to pull out battery and power it on again. No reboot.
What?! 20s lag? I was looking forward for quick device since I switch my Rhodium for LGO2X. I hope that this would be fixed soon by LG...
How odd. I haven't experienced this at all, and i've rooted mine and removed apps like F-Secure from my phone (By renaming them, don't worry.)
I guess a good way to find out if it's lag is to see if adb is still working.
Had it yesterday myself, once during charging. Then the powerbutton did work. Hour later I had to pull the battery. Wanted to advanced but forgot to leave USB debugging on. Had it so far only with my replaced unit. The first few days with the original unit didn't show signs of this...
Have to say my first unit wasn't rooted until the day they swapped it. The one I have now has been rooted since day one.

Hi all,
Just rooted by Nook Color with CM7 and I 2 fairly major problems. I searched threads but could not find anything specific to my specific problems.
First, last night, I turned off the Nook Color by holding down the button on the left and selected "Power Off". When I booted it (after a long wait, see below), it booted but the battery was very low and I checked the battery life settings using Spare Parts app and it said it had been Running 100% of the time since last unplugged. Its as if it didn't power off when I asked it to.
Second, my reboots are super slow....I get the "Read Forever" words when I hold down the left button but it takes several minutes before I have to press the bottom button to get the screen (no indication that its booting or anything).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Why are you shutting it down at all? Just let it sleep. Even with the current sleep issues, it will only use 1% or so of the battery that way... try it. I hardly ever power off my nook. As for the slow boot time, there are a lot of reasons...
1. Did you install the OC kernel and forget to wipe dalvik cache?
2. Which version of CM7 are you running? a nightly, or the 7.0 release?
I just did a test.
CM7 cm_encore_full-63
update-CM7-dalingrin-OC-emmc-040411 set at ONDEMAND 300-1100
At 2am battery was at 100%
Standby for 9.5 hrs and it consumed 16% battery.
Not looking good to leave in standby.
Do you leave wifi on? It could be syncing or trying to sync the whole time it is on standby.

If you powered off your NC, it would not be using battery.. Period. Running 100% of the time is normal right now on CM7, but again, it was not running while it was powered off.
Slow boot? Are you using an SD card? If so, get a new one that's faster.

You might have some rogue apps running that overheat the cpu. Look in taskmanager which apps are using much power. Download cpu spy free from the market to see if the cpu comes in deep sleep or not.
Good luck
I also have it occasionally. POWER+HOME button to reset. One time need to remove battery. Actually I felt like phone is still open but screen cannot come back. Next time I will call my phone when it happens.
I've had this happen twice. Both times a battery pull fixed it. At first I thought the phone was going dead, completely black and the power button would do nothing, but the second time I hit the volume button several times and it started beeping, so even though it looked completely dead, it was still turned on. I don't know what the problem is, but probably something software.
Which ROM/kernel are you using?
Any special CPU profiles?
How's the temperature?

happened a few times too. So, last time when I found it "dead" I did some test.
1. used my bluetooth headset (MW600) tried to play music, surprisingly music started playing but screen cannot turn on by any keys.
2. I called myself using another phone, Caller can hear ring normally and the call NOT dropped to voice mail, however my Note doesn't ring at all, screen still cannot turn on by any keys.
So it doesn't look like it's auto switched off by overheating, seems like unable to completely wake up after deep sleep.
Phone using Stock Rom(rooted with CWM), with System Power Saving mode turned on. I suspecting it's related to the power saving mode.
I'm also stock 2.3.5 rooted, with CWM, but do not have system power saving turned on. I haven't noticed any heat, but haven't monitored temperatures.
Do you also have the stock kernel?
Are you using setCPU?
Try using cpuspy, from market.

Dead
I also had this case yesterday for the first time. I bought it the 30th november.
Did not want to wakeup, darkscreen. Only way to recover was to remove battery. I am on 2.3.6 french.
I do not use Setcpu.
Mine is unroot. In other words, stock ROM and kernel.
I think it is software problem. And I think it is either Samsung software or Android system. Someone need to run logcat though.
For your information.
When you sure it's sleep dead(not shutdown cause by no battery)
Disconnect any charger/USB connected. Press and hold the power switch for around 10-15 sec,
that will restart the phone, no need remove that inconvenient back cover for battery pull.

The first time it happened to me I tried holding the power button but it didn't work, so I did the battery pull. I haven't tried again since then.
Sudden Shutdown
Mine too i've experience it 3 times, this happen when im opening some applications sudden black screen and restarted cannot access back button, haven't tried the power button. It just restarted thats it!!! Im at stock kernel unrooted 2.3.6 so what do you think guys should i root or just wait for Ice Scream Sandwich upgrade?

See if you hold the button long enough for over 10 seconds, before I would release and think power button not work after 7-8 seconds.
I have experienced "sleep of death" many times on different firmware versions. I has never happened since I flashed KL3. I'm on AbyssNote 2.1 kernel.
update:
since I replaced the stock launcher & locker, no more sleep dead issues. I suspect the problem source is stock locker or some stock widgets. Also, battery last longer too.
now using: widget locker + awd launcher ex + multi-picture live wall paper.
For those wonder why phone can't wake up for some reason, a user at the green power app forum had got the solid evidence.
http://greenpower.pouzerate.com/ind...-s2-freeze--black-screen?limit=6&start=48#465
"And if then it looks like the touchwiz launcher has crashed and changed pid when restarting without telling the InputManagerService about it, so it can't wake up the screen for that reason."
So the culprit is the stock launcher. And this matched with my experience even after I uninstalled green power free, my phone still have "not waking up" problem . But since switched to use 3rd party lock and launcher for a month, the "not waking up" never happens again.
This happened to me for the first time yesterday, when I eventually got it restarted by removing the battery, it was at 88% so don't think it was overheating, otherwise it would be much lower. Also I had Go launcher Ex running so touch wiz unlikely to be the culprit. Maybe some widget, I have loads!

This actually fits well with my experience. Touchwiz crashes on me occasionally and just last night I was experiencing the sleep of death thing. This time I thought it might have been the battery, so plugged in the charger and that somehow woke the screen back up to show touchwiz in the process of starting up, caught red handed!
This has happened to me as well 3 times, and every time it has been related to using a highres picture on the stock locker. It would lag out on unlock, black screen of death, which i would have to batt pull to fix. Didn't realize i had to hold down the power button for 15 secs to achieve the same thing. Have since switched to a low res pic on lock screen and haven't experienced the issue since. Will try the alternative locker solution if it happens again.
Hello,
Ive been really annoyed at something my Cappy has been doing lately. I recently installed Helly Bean and have been flabbergasted at how fast this thing moves. I am BLOWN away with how beautiful this OS is on my phone! However, whenever I make a phone call and go to take my head away from the phone it for some reasons goes either idle, or completely dead. I cant power up the device in any fashion without a battery pull. The phone is as if it is dead and then starts right up after the battery is replaced back in. I have the Devil kernel installed so I was thinking that perhaps the kernel might be up to something. I have had issues with the Idle before on my cappy. Deep idle isnt working... if the phone sits for five minutes with the screen off its goes idle to the point where it wont turn on without a battery pull. Could someone PLEASE help me. It would be greatly appreciated.

Do you have deep idle enabled in your settings? I did that once by accident and a battery pull was the only solution. If so, try disabling that.
Hm.

Hm. No, I dont. That's what my first guess what. Im going to try reflashing the rom me thinks. Maybe something happened along the way that I just dont know.
