I am facing serious shutdown issues . My nexus 6(MB,64GB) keeps shutting down unexpectedly . This happens while playing a game or even while calls. Any suggestions ??
this should not be in the general sections, but in the Q/A help section...
have you tried reflashing the stock img?
I had some major issues like that after updating to 5.0.1. I'm on cm now but if you flash back to stock it should fix things too

Stock Nexus 6, or are you using custom stuff?
stock out of the box nexus... happens usually while playing high end games. Happened twice during calls :/ 3rd week into the phone . Usually the battery saver turns on moments before phone shuts down . some times just goes poof.

Happened to me too today.got n6 on 11th Dec.initially reboots started then after 2 weeks of observations I turned off ambient display and now random shut downs..
Phone turned off on 14 % battery just when I picked up an incoming call..then again turned off when there was a call..really fed up of this issue..
Don't know if its a hardware or software issue..
backup your phone, reflash stock img completely, and test without restoring apps.

I've never had a random reboot but I have had the random shutdown issue. This was running stock 5.0.1 with stock kernel. Also had the same occurrence on CleanRom with stock kernel (this is basically a stock rom/kernel with a few tweaks. Another user recommended flashing LeanKernel which I did and haven't had a problem since. This random shutdown was happening roughly once per day. I have been running strong for almost a week now I'd say. I always am the guy to run custom roms and kernels myself anyways but I actually don't mind the stock rom so flashing the kernel was no big deal to me. There are a few threads on this subject if you search the forums. I too am hoping this isn't hardware related since it's always a pita dealing with RMA.
Is there anything new onto that? Any possible solutions? Same issue for me, generally happens during calls ... :/
hmm strange, i never had any shutdowns, could be either your rom or kernel your on. make sure the kernel your using with ur rom is compatible

I was just looking for this.
Mine started doing the same.
I have the battery saver set to 5%, but it never turns on!
The phone shuts off between 10% and 5%.
The battery saver turns on for only for a few seconds(if at all) and the phone shows the powering off animation.
Connecting the charger and turning the phone on, after booting shows 8% already.
Its not normal, because i remember having my phone at 1% without any problems for tests when i got it in November...
For the last few weeks i never went lower than 25% so i don't know when this started, but since i found this out(5 days ago), i tried it every day and it happens like clockwork. Flashed the factory image back has no effect( i was on stock anyways).
Hoping not to have a replacement to save the cost of my dbrand and screen protector...
I give it one more week and if it doesn't change i call Moto. I have MotoCare so replacement should be easy.

Same here ....
Hi guys,
My 2 month old nexus 6 is powering down unexpectedly. Random shut downs (not reboots). Thought it was snap chat was the culprit (read a few articles how some 3rd party camera apps can cause lollipop to power down) but the phone shuts down even after uninstalling all suspicious apps.
Any advice or suggestions will be highly appreciated
Devs please help
I'm starting to really wonder if these "turbo chargers" are causing major degradation to the batteries. The phone will shut down when the battery *voltage* drops below a specific threshold, regardless of what the percent display is actually at.
Another thing to consider is that adding a significant load to a battery will cause it to read a lower voltage, even if that load does NOT immediately deplete the battery, those who notice this happening when running a very demanding game could be experiencing this. I would suspect though, that this will only be an issue if the battery level is already fairly low.
Any update on this?
5% is still my dead-spot and nothing i tried helps...
I just ordered my nexus but my s5 (current phone) randomly reboots. We figured it was due to volte. Turned that off on the s5 and no issues so far. Was really tired of it and the reason I'm going to nexus. That and the bigger screen

Same issue here...
It must be caused by a bad batch of battery defects, Factory reset or re-flash factory image won't fix it... To get a replacement from Google seems to be the right way...

I use to have this issue. However, it has not happened since I started using Franco kernel. Multiple people have had the problem resolved by changing kernels. That leads me to believe that it is software related rather than hardware. Other benefits of flashing Franco for me is I can now use the built in led for notifications and I am using double tap to wake.

My battery issue happened after I kept using Franco for a while...then I switched back to elementalX or stock kernel, nothing resolved...
if the back cover doesn't peel off or the battery doesn't start to expand, it might be a good sign that it is just a software issue.
Otherwise, battery defect could be happening already, as in my case...
Changing kernels fixed my issue which was the phone shutting down on its own randomly. I guess some of you are experiencing a different problem.

Just a little update.
I did an advanced replacement with motorola.
Did it over chat on sunday, received the new phone on wednesday from texas.
Deposit was 500+tax.
The phone was brand new unopened box. Cloud White 64GB
The package had a box and a prepaid label to send the bad phone back.
The box was too small to fit a nexus 6, so i had to modify it a bit.
It was probably for the moto X or smaller.
Sent the phone back on Friday, they got it on Monday, and my money was back.
Everything looks great, the new phone can go down to 1% no problem.
The new turbo charger does not have the electrical noise that the old one has.
That may caused the battery problem. Using it since last Wednesday, and no problems so far.
The advanced replacement was great and easy, if i have to i would do it again, although in 3 months its gonna be a refurb device not a now.
Mine was in mint condition, had dbrand on and no scratches. The person who will get it after me will be happy with that refurb device
And i am happy with my new phone.
If the HTC M9 will have a GPE edition i might switch
Hello guys. Recently my phone has been acting up. It's been rebooting or shutting down by itself while not in use(standby/sleep). But this issue doesn't happen at all while the phone is in use. I tried to reflash everything from scratch but it's still happening, even when I'm on stock. Hardware failure imminent?
One thing is, about a week ago, when I put my phone to download stuffs overnight, I found it suddenly getting REALLY hot after just 2 hours or so and battery completely drained. I shut it down for itself to cool down before charging it. It was ok for a couple days than the issue I mention above started happening. Oh yeah, and it's getting hot easily now.
Any idea, anyone? Is it really hardware issue or anything I can do software wise?
My phone is randomly rebooting while in idle situation, though i can't certainly replicate this thing, but it is rebooting like 3 to 4 times a day when ever it is lying idle, it never reboots when i abusing it, so i am confused why this thing is happening at first place, i have tried factory reset phone, but still it reboots randomly, can anybody tell me why it is happening.
