I swapped the battery on my F8131 and now when my phone boots up, I get to my main screen and the screen turns off. The phone still works, clearly, as my alarm was going off this morning, but the screen won't turn back on unless I re-seat the battery. Then the process repeats itself. Touch works, as I can swipe before the screen turns off.
I've re-seated all the connections, dried it out, put the old battery back in, pulled each component one by one to see if it was shorting, power drained the phone. Nothing fixed the issue. I can't get to the recovery menu as the volume buttons don't work properly.
Any thoughts?
Did it get wet?
If so take out the battery asap!!!

Ok since about a week ago my G1 would randomly turn itself off, but never give me a low battery warning, and never say powering off. If I turn it back on, sometimes it makes it to the lock screen, and sometimes it doesnt and it just turns itself back off. Sometimes itll even fully boot and I can still use it (rare cases) but the battery will still say its fine, and sometimes it gets low and turns off. Sometimes even after shutting itself down I will lose all my contacts, sms, etc, and it will sync back up, very wierd and annoying. The only remedy is putting it on the charger and turning it back on, and I will have no problems. I dropped my phone recently also, this could have caused this madness, or its a battery issue, I will try to swap batteries and c how it is. But any ideas?
i had replaced the digitizer on my vivid recently and now it would shut down randomly and even when i turn it on it would stay on for 10 second to 2 minutes and would shut down and this cycle continues until the phone "decides" to stay on. This only happens when the phone is not charging, when the phone is charging it never shuts down. Sometimes the percentage of the battery will jump for example: it could be at 60% then it shut down and when i turn it back on it would be at like 40% and it would shut down and when i turn it on again it would jump to like 56%.
Thanks in advance for any help
edit: when i had to take the digitizer from the screen i destroyed the tape sticking them together, im just sticking them together now with normal tape i had order adhesive strip to fix that. I also forgot to take the plastic off from the digitizer side that goes infront of the lcd screen. i dont think any apps is causing this.. i use to think battery is problem but now think otherwise..it doesnt shut down when my sim isn't inside.. only testing this now not 100% sure
edit:everything seem to working except for flash photography without the sim card. also when making phone call the screen keep going dark maybe a sensor is covered

I had to reboot mine in to flash mode in order for mine to come back up. I had to hold the down volume (or up cannot remember right now) + power for a minute nearly. Then it rebooted correctly into normal mode.

So I ended up calling AT&T and they went ahead and shipped me a new MAHD.
I took the dead phone to work and tried charging with my work charger, and now it works! When it finally turned on, the battery level was at 3%. So lesson learned: Do not let your battery drain to 1%!

I am having the same problem. I can get the boot screen up if i hold the buttons in at a certain time while the phone is plugged in and attempting to turn on. however, the phone cuts out no matter what and repeats the cycle even with the boot screen up. during the few seconds i can get the boot screen up, i'm unable to select an option, only scroll up or down and highlight them. then the phone cuts out and 20 secs. later attempts to turn on again but never gets past the motorola icon. Any suggestions? I originally thought it was the battery so i ordered one and installed it correctly and charged it, but still the same thing is happening. When plugged into a pc, charge light comes on but phone won't attempt to turn on....?????????

Our phone doesn't receive power from the cable until it's fully booted. Factory cables are a good work around.

I have the same problem.
I think it's impossible to fix.
I tested with original charger.
I have also tried every possible button combinations.
and does not start
Has anyone been able to fix it?
Hi guys,
My Xperia won't boot up, and vibrates non-stop.
I decided to take off the back cover, and take a look. After some investigation, I noticed than when I press the flex cable connector of the PWR, VLM UP and DOWN on the motherboard, it boots up.
Then is stopped doing it like this.
Now I noticed, when I press around the vibration motor connector, it stops vibrating, but when I press the bottom-right corner of the battery, it starts vibrating again. While pressing the vibration motor connector, the battery bottom right corner, and the flex cable connector of PWR and Volume, suddenly it booted again to charging mode, and now I turned it on again..
It charged from 2% to 10%, 2 times it noted that the battery is low, which means it somehow stopped charging in between, or, lost connection with the battery as it should.
Note that this is unreliable, as the phone tends to shut off at any given moment. It suddenly freezes for 2 seconds, goes off, and the red light blinks 3 times.
Note2: I've done this "pressure-therapy" a number of times, and most of the times the battery is always drained, even when I charged it to 100% the last time.
I'm not an electric engineer, but something is telling me that the battery gets drained through another source then it should. Can we call it a short-circuit? I'm not sure if the battery is messed up. Maybe some components are touching which shouldn't after I have dropped the phone.
I'm going through the same routine again and will see what the phone does when I turn it off.
Also, the date of the phone is always the same date, but that's probably because I don't have automatic time and date settings enabled.
Hello everybody, i have a big problem with mi P9:
i was to replacing my cracked display and the battery, so i bought them. Took off the old display, replaced with the newer and the same process done with tha battery.
But, after that, i tried to turn on the phone....nothing. No vibration, to display, nothing. I plugged it to the power adapter, and a red led started to blink while charging, tried on more time to turn it on, and it get the bootup vibration, but still nothing on the display. After the short bootup vibration, the led blinked faster for 2 seconds, than nothing. After minutes, the phone show the charging screen with the 0% battery, not growing up. As last chance, i tried to unplug the battery, reconnect to the power adapter and...boom, it booted up with the animation. The phone show the unlock screen with the PIN screen, but only for 1 second: Battery low, the phone is about to turning off, and so it does.
Now, i tried with a different battery, but nothing. I don't know what is the problem. I was supposing about the motherboard flex, maybe i damaged it while removing the old battery, but i'm not sure. Can you help me?
Thank you!
No one can help me?
