My phone is I9500 internatioinal s4, had stockfirmware on kitkat 4.4, today it was showed low battery and was not chargin so shut it off and put cable for charging but it didn't show any charging (charger was ok i tested it with another device and it was charging normally) so i left it for sometime and when i checked it again about after an hour or so it in red colour "FACTORY MODE" with android logo and "DOWNLOADING, DO NOT TURN OFF TARGET". This all happened suddenly without me doing anything, i never ever rooted this phone and kept it simple working on stock firmware. It's still in that state and i haven't turned it off or removed from battery charger. Please advise me as to what should i do NOW? should i turn it off? or what?
ok, i think children had poured some water around my phone causing that issue, i left my phone for sometime and let it dry and restart and ran fine without any trouble.
thanks

[Solved; Ignore] Phone on "charge" at 0% Instantly turns off when charger is removed.
As the title suggests, my phone will only turn on when the charger is plugged in and the battery stats say "0% Charging (AC) - 0s on battery".
Little background. I just flashed stock and AK 301 kernel as well as the latest libs. Phone turned on just fine, battery was at 50%.
I then decided to run Antutu for the hell of it to see if there were any performance changes etc.
Whilst Antutu was running the phone just powered off and wouldn't power back on. I had a red blinking light and that was it.
Eventually I managed to boot in to recovery after following advice to hold power + vol down for 15 seconds then plug the charger in.
The phone was on charge for about 3 hours with the LED still blinking at me.
When I managed to get in to recovery I flashed the only ROM I had on there after wiping all data etc. Which was Mahdi ROM.
Now when I turned the phone on, after many failed attempts, the battery icon is completely depleted with the charging icon inside the battery and as said in my first sentence it says 0% Charging and as soon as I take the charger out, the phone turns off instantly and won't turn back on nor will it blink until I put the charger back in.
Does anyone know whats going on? Could the battery have come loose somehow? I'd like to open it up but I don't have the required screwdriver to do so, anyone know any other way I can crack the case open without damage?
Any help or suggestions are most welcome. I can't return it on warranty as I bought this phone 1 year ago on the 4th June... Of course this had to happen 6 days after warranty expired!
I think I spoke too soon.
I just decided to hold the power button and vol down until the phone completely switched off. Turned it back on and now my battery says 32%.And as of writing this it's now up to 34%. So it's actually showing that it's charging now, whereas earlier the phone was on for about 20 minutes and said 0% the whole time.
Odd. That's all I have to say.
I can't delete my post for some reason. So I'll just flag it as answered. Sorry about that.
Hey all.
So I have an s4 that was running safestrap and hyperdrive. It all worked fine and I was having no problems. The phone froze (programs not responding, not a big deal.)
I did a battery pull and then the phone would not turn on again. When I put the battery in, it turns on for about 5 seconds. I managed to get it into recovery and download mode, however it turns off almost as soon as I get there. I checked with a different battery, but nothing.
I would ODIN it and everything would be fine, but it won't stay on long enough for my computer to even recognize it.
Also, I tried leaving the phone on the charger overnight, but it won't charge the battery or show the red LED. I felt for heat to see if it was hot around the usb/charging port but it wasn't.
Any ideas?
I'm sure you tried this, but did you try to use the USB cord to power and not rely on the battery?
I have an LG G2 ls980, cm-12-20150501-NIGHTLY-ls980, render kernel
I installed cm12 a long time ago and I realized that the battery was being drained really fast with cm's kernel. Then I installed render kernel. Everything was handy dandy. Less battery drain, all was good in the world. I put my phone down for a few seconds, look back, and see that my phone is completely off. I try powering it on, and nothing happens. It isn't bricked though, there isn't a dark(bull still powered) screen, there isn't an LED, there isn't a vibration when I plug in the charger for my phone.
I tried:
Waiting a while and then charging my phone for an hour(my phone got really hot after this)
Using multiple cables(none of them were data-enabled cables if that is important)
Attempted to put it into download mode(it won't even turn on, but I saw this suggestion everywhere)
Is my battery done for? Will it begin to expand if I charge it? Will this suggestion work(I'm holding off from this since the G2 battery is very tedious to put back in):
"Ok after hours of figuring out what to do I did this as a last resort and it worked. I removed the screws from the phone and pulled the battery clip from the board ; then I pressed the power button , held it down and with the other hand clipped the battery back in, once the battery vibrated I put the phone on the charger and it turned on showed the lg logo and then showed that the battery was at 0% but was charging. My phone was not rooted it was just sitting on my desk for a week till I got back from vacation. I hope this Helps"
A few days ago while charging my Moto X Pure, it suddenly turned off. I was not using the device, it was just lying on a table charging. When I go to turn the phone back on, it goes to the battery icon percentage screen and turns off again. I have no idea what happened. I tried to enter recovery mode and do a factory reset but it wont go into recovery mode either. It's the most bizarre thing that has happened and I have no idea what is wrong. The phone seems to work because it indicates that it is charging but it doesn't do anything else past that. PLEASE HELP.
Also, the phone doesn't turn on (and by turn on I mean go back to the battery screen) unless it is plugged in. That made me think it was a battery issue, but I don't understand if it was a battery issue, why it would restrict the phone booting regularly while it was plugged in.

Try charging it with laptop / desktop for a while 30 /40 mins.
Then try to boot into bootloader.
If you are successful then disconnect the USB and connect your turbo charger and start the phone.
So I've had my Moto X Pure (XT1575) for almost two years now, and it's been through hell and back with me. A few months ago, I replaced the screen because of the hot spots the screen had since I've bought it, at the same time, I replaced the battery, the frame and installed a wooden back cover. Yesterday, while I was using it, the phone died and started trying to boot itself back up. I thought it was a sudden turn off, like when you have 30% and it dies because the battery is old. So I let it in the charger for a few minutes just so I could turn it on; but it didn't, it turned on for a split second, showing the bootloader unlocked screen and dying instantly. Luckily I managed to boot it once, and what was weird is that the battery showed 50%+ charge and was charging normally. I went to sleep and let it charge overnight, now it flashes the white led as if the battery level was too low to turn on. I suspect it's a bad battery, but maybe it could be something else. Any help is appreciated.
UPDATE: I've tried to boot the phone again but it doesn't want to do it, it just flashes the bootloader unlocked screen then dies, it's like a bootloop but weirder. Tried to get to the fastboot menu and it lets me, it says "battery is low" in the battery status, which is weird, since it said "battery OK" yesterday.
NVM, I opened the phone and disconnected the battery and put it back on and the problems fixed itself
