My S4 I9505 has started to get severe over heating issues. I noticed this the other night when my phone went into a crazy restart cycle but wouldn't start. It was very hot towards the top quarter if the phone. I took the battery out and left it overnight. In the morning it started fine. I've just flashed the new MF2 firmware to see if this would solve it. Tonight however it started again. This time it was when I had it plugged into my laptop and was using the phone while charging. After unplugging it cools very quickly and is usable again. Anyone else suffering this?

is it rebooting again? or just hot while charging, but performing correctly?
Get the OS Monitor app and see what process is using your CPU.
Yes it did go into a reboot cycle again. But after I unplugged it from my laptop it cooled down straight away and booted normally. I will get the os monitor app and keep an eye on what is going on. Thanks

randomly when I play little empire, my phone will suddenly die.then when I turn it on it says I have no battery left. sometimes if I reboot it'll say I have around 20 to 30 percent. this happens even after I tried battery calibration (the app and in cwm) and even if I fully charge my phone. I'm on tdjs Kang with stock kernel on darkside gov

or, maybe it was a bad game download..?

I have to comment cause im having the same problems. But instead playing games, mine will just die. It happen now btw, it was on charge all night woke up and seen that there was no charge on the battery, i unpluged it and now it wont charge and my orange led just flashes when i plug it into a charger. In order to get out of it last time i used a walmart charger. Took out the battery pluged it in, took it out over and over and different ways. I was about to bash it. Well then out of the blue it started to charge again and turn on with absolutly no charge but did show it started to charge again. It only happens with cm7, cause thats only what i use the most. So i dunno whats the deal is im tempted to take it to tmobile store and see if they can give me a replacement battery and to see if its the battery itself. So hell i dont know what the heck its doing but i need it for my job cause im a truck driver and i depend on it to get loads and what not. It doesnt power up,doesnt boot into recovery, but does turn on when i hold the volume button and power button in the vibrate unknown mode and orange led flashes. I know i didnt brick it because ive been in this situation before and works after i did the special pattern to get it working again. The pattern is unknown cause it all depends so dont ask it was a euthastic comment. so hell buddy me and you are in the same boat until then

Edit** ok i managed to get it turned on again, pulled battery,sim,sdcard. Put it on charge then waited a few minutes, then put battery in it and then plugged it back in. It worked, im going to try to post a screenshot of the battery usage. I got to let the battery charge up some, so i can put everything back in it. I dunno it may be related to the emmc chip.

Hey guys!
Today my phone was at about 10% charge, so I decided to charge it. After I plugged it in, it immediately said charged (I unplugged it after it said charged). After about 30mins the phone completely turned off and wouldn't turn on. When I went home and plugged it in, a red light started to blink. After fiddling around with it and finally being able to turn it on, I went into the battery menu and realized there was a sudden drop. I would appreciate it if anyone could tell me why it happened, a fix/ a way to prevent this from happening!

thats a pretty big issue, but I just ran into a similar issue. My battery life was at 73, and then i powered off the phone then powered it back on. it was still at 73. then i powered off again and powered on again and it was down to 65. Not sure why that is, did you power off/on your like this too?

Woah, this is either a big coincidence or has something to do w/ PA. I had same thing happen to me and I had to RMA my phone. It had only been a few days since I had installed PA for the first time.
What do you mean by "I had to RMA my phone"? Sorry i dont know many terms.

Didn't unlocking the boot loader void the warranty? How did you get a replacement?

Sorry if this is a nooby suggestion, but maybe get a battery calibration app?

My nexus 10 is dying with displayed charge at or around 70%. I had lost the tablet and it was dead for months. Idk if that is relevant or not. It did take a full charge a few times after finding the tablet before the above stated issue occurred. The charger I'm using should be in good shape as it charges my Galaxy S4 w/o issue. Running CM 10.1.3 (Stable).
Thoughts? Thanks in advance.
Update: now the device is dying while showing charge level in the high 90% mark. Device now dies mid-boot even plugged in. Before it would stay on so long as I kept it plugged in. It will stay on if I go into cwm. That's the curious part.

After doing some research I'm going to guess calibration to be the issue. What to do if calibration is so out of wack it thinks its charged when it's dead?
Update: I ran calibration after I managed to get it to 100%. A few minutes later it died. Curiously I put my tablet in recovery mode and it has stayed on for at least an hour now. However when I try to boot into CM it dies. Every retry it dies a little sooner in boot.
Maybe you could go back to stock via fastboot. If that doesnt work I think tour battery is dead.

Actually I've been letting it sit idle in recovery mode. Its had at least 4 hours to drain now. Haven't been able to kill it yet so I am extra confused. I read the charge with an app and it was at 4400. The tablet is perfectly happy in recovery. I wiped my system partition and reflashed CM. This seemed to have an affect to a degree. Once the dalvik cache was rebuilt the tablet died again and went back to the odd behavior I mentioned. I would prefer to not return to stock unless it is absolutely necessary. I will if I have to but I would like to see if anyone else has seen this issue or has an idea on how to TS it as is.
For the Android junkie this would be a fun issue to trace down. I simply don't have the education. I just created my developer console account and am going through the documentation to create my first app. Clearly outside of Google Fu I'm relatively useless.

Try wiping the battery stats from recovery, if yours lets you.
Have you tried wiping/factory reset and starting with a clean install? As part of all the rebooting, you may have corrupt file(s).

I think in going to have to. I've proved the battery is charged and CWM knows it. I'd like to do a titanium backup to preserve my game data but I don't see how if the darn thing dies mid-boot. May have to bite the bullet on this one

It didn't so I just wiped the whole /system partition (I believe that's where the battery bin exists) and flashed CM back. No good.

Flashed full factory image
I used the image found here to completely wipe and reset all partitions and make the thing like it just came out of the box with no trace of mods left (that I'm aware of). It happily booted in and I got about halfway through initial setup and it died and returned to the same behavior.
What do I do now?
Recently after updating to 4.4.2, I've been experiencing a weirdass issue.
The phone will drain normally/fast from 100% to 40%, with system_server draining the most, and then once it's at 40%, the radio will malfunction, sometimes not getting a signal and sometimes showing full bars but it actually doesn't have one.
At 30%, I cannot get any reception whatsoever, even with turning airplane mode on and off. And then a while after hitting 30%, the phone will just die instantly, no "Powering off" popup, just sudden black screen until I plug it in again, in which case it it will be partially reset in the fact that I will show the "Android is upgrading" popup and the clock and date will show 8:00 and 1/1/1970 respectively. If I manually shut the phone off, it can't be booted up again until it is plugged in.
Any ideas?

The limit has been increasing, now it dies at ~55%, and I can't manually reboot no matter what, it'll always need an AC power source to boot up

My phone doesn't power on unless I connect it to a charger. As soon as I unplug the charger it shuts down. Without a charger it gets stuck in boot loop. The phone had no issues for a year. It suddenly started acting funny this morning.
Are you running a custom ROM on your device?
No. I have stock rom. I just factory reset my phone in recovery mode.

Have you replaced the battery yet?
Sent from my SM-N910T using XDA Free mobile app
Repacing the battery solved my issue. But I fail to understand what caused my battery to go bad? I have never left it plugged in for more than the required time as it already has a fast charger.

They go bad over time. Most li ion are only good for 600-1000 charges and then they start to fail. Some fail catastrophically. I leave mine plugged in overnight every night, use fast charge, wireless charge with an adapter, leave it in the hot sun and in the freezing cold - basically really hard on them. I just plan to replace them on a 6 month or so cycle. That's why I don't like non replaceable batteries. Had that on my nexus 5 and it died a slow death.
