When my Z3 Compact is in Stamina mode the screen will often go black when I plug the charger in. It can't be woken up at this point. Once I unplug it the screen will respond after a minute or so. This doesn't seem to happen when not in stamina mode.
Any thoughts?
Try clearing the Stamina Mode white list and see if behaves any differently.
So I cleared the apps in the white list. Then I went to turn stamina mode off and then on again to test it. When I turned stamina mode off the screen went white with some random lines on it and became unresponsive. I was able to reboot the phone.
Since then the phone hasn't had any issues with plugging in the charger during stamina mode. Even after adding apps to the white list again it seems fine....wierd.
I have the same problem. Using my old samsung's charger seems to solve the problem. I wish I could go back in time and buy a different phone.

Hallo,
I have Oct/2010 Galaxy S bought from Germany. I have the 3 button recovery mode enable model. So following are the problems I am facing simultaneously...but first the story how it begins...
The day it started
I was making a video of my girl when she was taking a shower..lol..she caught the phone and tried to snatched it...and in this bloody joke act, the phone fell off in the sink about 1-1.5 feet below. I immediately took it and checked if everything was ok. I found that the home screen was fixed to horizontal display, and wouldn't change even after numerous re-starts or rese/selecting the automatic rotation option.
Problems
1. Stuck Horizontal Display
The phone is 99% time stuck to horizontal display with exception of the call log or dialer option or games which run only in portrait mode. Auto-rotation selection-deselection and horizontal calibration doesn't help at all. *Till 2-3 days back, if the phones battery is exhausted and switches off automatically, and then if the charging USB cable is connected, the phone restarts and turns normal to the normal portrait mode*. And stays like this till the next manual restart. Now, this is also not working anymore. I can play the accelerometer games perfectly, those also which run in portrait mode only. Also, the phone never charges if it is switched off..I mean if you connect charger USB cable/power cable when the phone is switched off...the phone turns on and then start to charge. Before(when all was ok), I had this big battery indicator on screen while at the time of switched-off charging. Also, if a power cable charging method is used...the touch screen behaves like crazy and you cant use it at all. You can't even slide to unlock the screen but all the buttons work completely fine. In case of USB cable charging...everything goes normal and I can use the touch screen and buttons like normal.
2. USB Mode
So the USB cable is charging the cellphone whenever connected to any USB port. When connected to a computer, its the wish of the cellphone if its wants to connect or not. The USB mode is detected by a computer/laptop only when the phone is turned on after a complete battery discharge in a normal portrait mode (read the lines above marked with *). That too I have to reinstall the drivers of the phone on the laptop/pc again. All the other times when phone is only have horizontal display, USB mode of any type...mass storage, kies, music player is not detected.
Some how i have upgraded to recently released 2.3.4 XXJVR from my previous 2.3.3 XXJVK but the problem has not gone. It started while using XXJVK only. I have reset everything...erased the phone/sd card memory but nothing happened and also restoring to the factory reset option.
Anyone who can help!!
Try flashing a FULL rom with 3 files and .pit again
Hope it helps
some times my phone will turn on light and turn off continues 5 secs .i am facing this problem in original and custom roms some times .when i reboot phone it will normal. can any one help me regarding this problem ?
Hi,
Have you checked if a rogue app working in the background wasn't responsible for this ?
check to see if the phone goes into charging mode and off charging mode all by itself, even when not even connected to the charger cable. if that is the case, I have the fix.
So when the phone wakes up and makes a charging sound, see if it really thinks its in charging mode and off again.
How about wipe to factory setting, than check and test.
So, I posted this on facebook group, but maybe there is someone in here who can help and isn't part of the group, so i'm posting here too .
So guys, i have a situation here, i was charging my phone, everything was okay, then it started to rain and started to lightning, the next day, when i took my phone off the charger, it wasn't working, it wasn't turning on, then i brought it to the support, they said everything was fine and even the phone was turning on, but not getting out of the logo screen, they didn't know how to enter in S/W mode, so i took it back and now the phone is with me, but it doesn't wanna turn on, even in the S/W mode. Then i ask you guys, there is anything i could do? If there is, please let me now, or do they lied to me ? I didn't want to get rid of my OB that soon. PS: I was using CM10.1 with ZeroGravityKernel.
The phone now turn on sometimes, stays awake for 30s and then blacks out .
I'm able to enter S/W mode but can't use Smartflash, it takes a least 2 minutes to use it D: .
what do you mean by only 30s? Like the battery dies after 30s or it just turn off?
Before sending your OB to service again change the battery instead it might not function well anymore due to the lightnings.
wait, Using smartflash you don't need a battery! So if your phone still turns off after 30s... it's actually the phone itself then...
try an "active boot" :
remove the battery, hold power key, then plug the charger until the logo appears. if the airplane mode was OFF, phone will boot, then reboot and will display the battery missing mesage. you may activate the airplane mode in a very short time before this occurs. from there you'll see if the phone stays ON or not. If not, that means this is a software or hardware issue. if it stays ON, that means there is a problem with the battery itself, or a charging issue
Hello
Recently I've noticed that my phone isnt charging well on the charging dock. Often the battery just stagnates. Just now I've noticed that in fact stamina mode turns off when the phone is in the dock, which could explain why the phone doesnt charge well. I've never noticed it turn off before and never had an issue with the battery not charging well. Using 569 stock. Dont have smart connect on. Cant find anything in settings that is causing it to turn off. Anyone else having this problem, or have I just been ignorant and this has always occurred heh? Thanks.

Stamina mode is supposed to turn of when you charge your phone. Stamina mode was developed to save battery while your screen is of / sleeping, and when you charge it there's no need for Stamina mode to be on.

I've never understood how the screen works while charging, while the phone is off. Is this some sort of system partition, or low powered mode? The reason why I ask, is whenever I try and charge it, the screen stays on, along with the LED Notification light. It never changes, and thus, I can never tell when it's 'fully' charged.
Any help? Is there a way to fix this by flashing something? I feel weird having my screen on all night trying to charge my phone.
Also, I forgot to mention, I can't turn it on, while it's off and charging. If I try to, it seems to freeze, and the only way to turn it on, is to disconnect, and hold the power button until it reboots. Have I messed up something crucial?
