battery level low only when sim inserted - Wing, P4350 General

Hello everyone,
I've been having problems with my tmobile wing... (unlocked, with firmware came from t-mobile)
When I have no sim card inserted, the device boots up perfectly with 100% battery life.
However, with the sim card inserted, the wing keeps rebooting, and when it finally boots up, it complains about battery being low and shut down. I tried plugging it in while starting it up, and it shows 1% battery life. Removing the sim card brings the battery life back up to 100%
tried the same sim card in my nokia 5800 and no problems at all =\ so I wouldn't assume it to be a sim card problem....

That weird as crap there...but not unheard of. My Wizard did something similiar, and I found that hard reseting fixed my problem, that or just flashing a new ROM.

battery died, SD card formatted itself (again)

hi, my phone's battery ran out yesterday night, cuz i went a club and had no place to charge it, my phone normally lasts from 9am - 1am.
but as soon as i got home, i plugged my phone in, and notice my SD card formatted itself! everything is gone! but the diskspace is still being used.
this is like the 10th time my card either curropts, unreadable, or formats.
did anyone find a way to fix this problem yet? it happens atleast twice a month. and it sucks, i lose all my data and notes.
im using the 2.17 t-mo rom on a 8125
and a 2gb OEM card
thanks

Won't boot with SIM in.

My HTC Prophet won't boot with the SIM in it.
When i take the sim card out, it boots with no problems.
I've tried several roms, (5.0, 6.1 and 6.5) still got problems.
It gets to the Qtek screen (blue splash) and when it's about to start loading the OS, it just shuts down (screen goes black, about 4 seconds later the LED turns off)
What should i do?
(ive also tried hard reset, no help.)
EDIT :
Now the phone won't boot with the SIM inside either, it seems if i leave the battery out for a while, it will boot.
It shuts down automaticly too after a while.
EDIT 2 :
I have found a temporarily solution.
Take the battery out, leave it without power for about 5 minutes, then it boots up perfectly without any problems.
Gonna keep watching it.
Sim card works on other phones? have you tried with an other sim card?
Replace battery.

[Q] i337 Overheats then no SIM

Its a 16gb Att and ive had it for about a year and few months. This started happening a while back but never this bad. I would feel the phone get really warm in my pocket. The heat comes from right under the Sim/SD card tray. CPU? So eventually i get so hot it gives me the invalid SIM/ no sim message and rebooting my phone fixed it. About a month ago i read here that it might be a corrupted or damaged SD card. And what do u know, i pull out the card and no more heat/ sim issues. I thought it was my card 64 GB Class 10 Sandisk. But no, every SD card i pop in that isnt empty starts this meltdown. So i had to replace the charger port so i swaped out that board, same issue. Replaced the SD/Sim card tray same issue. I put my finger on the piece the card tray sit on before i stuck on the new one (ribbon cable connected with SD card in slot) and almost burned my finger. I flipped on Dev options and checked off "show cpu ussage" and i see that everytime i pop an SD card in, my CPU usage goes NUTZ, like its low at idle then in shoots to 100% and stayes there for a little, then back down, then back to 100%.
Anyone know whats going on? Or how to fix this? Im out of warranty and the only way i can use my phone is to remove the SD card. And 16GB for me isnt enough.

I think an SD card bricked my phone?

After months of various SD cards not working (phone not detecting them, bootloops when they're inserted, etc), I eventually decided to try out one last SD card that I know works with my brother's phone. Inserting the SD card wouldn't let the phone boot up, as I expected. But even removing the SD card fails to rectify the problem. Now, whenever I try to turn on my phone, the area near the SoC package gets very hot, and I have to remove the battery to power it off and let it cool down. The screen stays blank, and nothing seems to work. I have found out that plugging the phone in while the battery is removed and then reinserting the battery while the phone is still plugged in shows the battery charging icon, but the screen quickly goes blank after that.
Be honest, do I have a bricked phone? Or is there a way to somehow get it to boot, at least into recovery? I have the ZE551KL model.
if u still have warranty asus should take care of ur phone. from what u discribed there is a Short circuit on ur motherboard i don't know if it is possible to repair or not but it is definitly inside ur phone

No SIM detected, and sometimes reports 0% battery when fully charged.

Hi.
This is a friend's stock P8 Lite ALE-L21.
He asked me to look at it because it had stopped recognicing the SIM card. He had taken it to a repair shop, and they told him the battery was bad, and replaced it. But after opening... i'm not sure they replaced it, it looks "too stock".
In any case, that didnt solve the problem.
I took the phone apart, cleaned everything with small brushes and contactt cleaner, and inserted my phone's SIM card because he was using his on another phone for the moment. IT WORKED! I could make a call from it and connect to the LTE network.
So i remove the SIM card and give the phone to him. Next day he says that he's put his card on the phone and it wont take it. I take the phone again, try with mine, and no luck.
I have taken it apart again and checked with a multi-meter that every pin on the SIM card tray has a connection with the mainboard, and that all pins are positioned well. I dont think the slot is the problem.
A weird thing happens, also. The phone sommetimes reports 0% battery when you turn it on, even if you just charged it. Just now, it was at 50% battery, i rebooted it, and it reported "battery depleted, the phone will turn off in 30 seoconds". And then i booted again and it reported 12%.
Are this symptoms familiar to someone? Is the board toasted?
