For the last week my nexus 7 has been completely dying around 50% battery. If its in sleep mode when it hits that % then it won't turn on, if I'm using it when I hit that % I get a weird flicker then it shuts off. This just seems extremely strange that all of a sudden only half my battery works. A long with only having half my battery to work with, it seems like the tablet has been charging a lot slower then normal. I use to be able to work it down all the time and usually didn't charge it until 5%-10%
Anyone else ever have this issue? I contacted Asus and there only solution right now was a factory reset. I cant see how that could fix the issue at all.

are you rooted? what type of kernel are you using?
I have read that sometimes a factory reset refreshes the battery settings. Is your device rooted or rommed out?

That happened to one of my friends S2's. Factory reset it. It worked for my friend. My N7 also charged really slow. I just changed the ROM. It is the same thing as a factory reset because you do one when you change your ROM.

As said before, try a factory reset !
If no luck there
Try download a battery calibration app to see if its mis-calibrated etc

Well I was using my nexus 7 when I just let the device in standby to watch TV. When I got the nexus back to use it the device was turned off. I tried to turn it on a lot of times and it didn't work. After a lot of tries it turned it on. So....... Should I contact support? Is that normal? The bootloader is unlocked, I am afraid it happens again and I can't lock the bootloader before sending it to support.
Android stock ROM 4.2.1

Seems you have the red light of death ( RLOD) . Can you get into the boot loader?
Plug in the charger, hold power button and volume down button. If you can get into bootloader then use the volume key to select "power down" and use power button to choose that option. Then just leave the phone plugged in for a while.
I've had it only take maybe 5 minutes and other times take an hour. Try turning it on, if it just vibrates then shows the Google screen and reboots then redo the steps and leave it plugged in and let it sit for longer

Check the file you flashed. Sounds like you flashed a ROM not meant for the nexus 4 like a nexus 7 ROM.
If that's the case you are bricked and only a JTAG will save it.

If you can get in bootloader:
download the ROM from computer (correct one)
get into recovery
mount usb storage
put ROM in phone
flash rom
wipe
reboot
you might have to hold power and volume down for awhile.. 10+ seconds
You posted this in the wrong forum btw.. next time Q&A would be appropriate

Looks like that is a gs2 ROM. Only way to save it is JTAG.
For future reference only flash Roms made for the device you are using.

See if you can power it on in the download mode. I forgot the button combo, but it's volume up or down (or both) and power.

Is a machine that can rewrite your memory without turning the phone on their are some shops on the internet that do it. last I checked only other option is lg and they are going to be more expensive than a shop.

As of yesterday my N4 keeps shutting off at different times of the day. I didn't make any changes to it. I haven't gotten the 4.3 update yet.

Is the temperature on or outside the device hot?

Try a factory reset. (Remember to back up things you don't wanna lose)
If that does nothing good, you should probably return it to the place you purchased it from in order to get a warranty repair / replacement.

I had that with my GNex and it turned out to be my battery.
Hey guys I'm on an AT&T D800... since Monday afternoon my phone had been unusable... it got extremely hot both front and back near the mid to top of the phone... and was just chewing through battery 31% in 15 minutes... so I powered down and left it numerous times on different stock based rooms and still no luck it would just overheat till it shutdown or battery died if I didn't turn it off... I managed to get it charged enough to restore my stock backup, unroot, and put the stock recovery back on and then did 2 factory resets with still no change... so I called at&t and they sent out a warranty replacement which will be here tomorrow.. so my question is do any of these return to stock methods actually clear rootchecker? That's my only worry that they'll see that and nail me the retail price of the phone... I didn't use a custom kernel just the roms...
I see conflicting stories from people saying yes it does it clear rootchecker and others saying no.. I would just try but I don't have WiFi so I don't burn up my months data just to find out it didn't work.
The phone seems to be working fine since I powered it up 2 hours ago but I'm worried about any residual/repeat issues or decreased lifespan of phone from the overheating issues
Thanks in advance!

Flashing a Stock .kdz works completely. Perhaps you should read this sticky: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2432476
Thanks I've read that one before but I've also read other threads that say it still shows rooted when booted into download mode even after doing this reflashing

Did you check to see why the battery was being depleted so fast? I am willing to bet the phone itself was fine, but some app was utilizing the entire CPU, which would heat the phone up and kill the battery quickly.
Which means it's entirely possible you'll have that issue with the new one as well.

Yeah but after 2 factory reset there were only unused factory installed apps

The rom restores I can see that holding true but after 2 complete resets and not adding any apps... not even setting up any Google services I don't know what it would be
