well so the other day sat my phone to charge but in the middle of the night i woke because i touched it and it was crazyhot.
and then i tryed to turn it on i got a response just samsung galaxy s5 showed and then it died.
so i took the battery away and the cover and let it cool off by the window.
when i tryed it later i got absolutly no response, when i try to charge it it makes a crackling noise almost like when u are boiling water.
i think the battery is the problem but i will ask here first.

Hello,
I think your battery has been roasted. you need to buy a new battery from ebay or amazon or your local store. Also, did you put your phone on the bed or under the pillow? because if it is.. it will get hotter if you did lol. so make sure put your phone away about 2 feets while charging from your bed. or put on hard surface while charging. Good luck!

Barely a week in and my nexus battery charger stopped charging. Anyone encountered this problem w/previous samsung phones? now, I gotta plug the usb in my laptop to charge which is taking longer. Also got a scare when the phone wouldn't tilt sideways for watching videos and typing on the keyboard. Good thing that problem was temporary. Should I worry about this or no?
yes...
Well my charger died also this morning, I brought it back and they tested it, said it worked, but still gave me another I would definitely bring it back buddy, don't take the chance!
can someone please help me? i just got my xperia x10 which is sent by my uncle from uk and I dont know what's wrong but it's not working, besides no one will pay for a lot of cost to send a junk via dhl. can someone please help me?
i tried charging the phone battery but there's no light indicator to tell me that its charging, i even charged the battery alone thru clipped charger but the whenever i try to open the phone it will only vibrate a little and will never open
just leave it charging for an hour or so.
will try to do so...thanks
If the battery has completely run out of charge then you will never be able to charge it again.
A new battery is only a few dollars off Ebay.

jezzz ... you try to kill battery finaly...
Put it on clip charger for over night
i have charged it with a clip charger and yes the phone hasn't turned on yet. Now I'm not interested anymore to have it back to life but I will never ever buy any SE phones again. And warn my friends who thinks of buying an SE phone to buy Blackberry or Iphone instead. I am really disappointed with this product.
This is what happend to mine, one day it was fine then it just would charge or turn on, I managed to get SE to send me shiny new one as it was still under warranty, if it is a UK one and under 2 years old take it to the Carphonewarehouse and ask them if it can be repaired under the manufactures warranty
Just go and buy a new battery.
So all this happened sometime during the night of 7/1 & morning of 7/2. I noticed when my alarm went off on my phone, my phone was EXTREMELY HOT. Very uncomfortable to the touch. However the battery was at 100%. Not really thinking anything of it, I used it as normal and when bedtime rolled around, I plugged it back in the stock cable & charger. No "beep" indicating it's charging. No change to the battery icon. I started troubleshooting and testing it with different cables/different charger combinations. My phone would not charge at all but everytime I connected a charger to it while it was turned on, it started getting very hot.
I eventually just turned the phone off and attempted to charge it again. When it's off, it won't charge (but won't overheat).
I did notice that when I used another charger (that had an LED indicator of when it was charging), it would completely go off when I plugged my GS4 to it.
I'e never used any other charger with my GS4.
Any ideas WTF is going on?

Can you give us any insight on the phone such as any custom flashes or possible root permissions to apps that might affect the battery?
Most likely than not the battery might be fault, I highly doubt it would be anything else unless it's flashes with a certain kernel or rom that might have a bug or two.

Oh. Sorry about that. This phone is as stock as it gets. Nothing custom about it.
I talked to AT&T Chat this morning and they said they think it's the battery. I've never really heard of a battery preventing a charge problem, but that's what they told me it was.
The crappy part is, they are sending me a battery first (and if that doesn't work), they told me to call them back to have the phone replaced. What's worse is if it isn't a battery problem, I'm out a phone for the entire weekend until Monday or Tuesday.

I think in most cases (i don't know AT&T) they send you a replacement and ask you to ship your phone into the box your new phone came in.
Either way I would think that it is the battery especially with your phone overheating while charging Of courses there are cases where the plug or cord is at fault so you might want to give those options a try as well.

I might want to try that option (get a new phone) despite them sending me a battery first. I'll call them back.
My phone has about 15% left (I turned it off after I realized I couldn't charge it for troubleshooting purposes). I notice now that the phone gets really warm (around the camera flash) when on. This is without it being plugged in and only turned on.
I've tried 2 other chargers (A Griffin and a Belkin that I use for my other phones for work) and none of them charge my GS4. When I plug it into my Motorola Droid Razr (work phone), it charges that just fine. This is really frustrating. Any other weekend would be fine, but it's the freaking 4th of July weekend and I won't have a phone for the entire holiday.
Thanks man, going to call AT&T to see if I can sweet talk the rep to just send me a new phone. The battery is scheduled to come Friday, so maybe they can ship the phone that quickly.

I'm not the biggest tech guy when it comes to phones but I think around the flash area is where the battery connectors are (where they make contact with the phone), so that might result in it getting warm. Although with you not charging it it can still be the battery being faulty.
I would call them back and try to exchange the full phone just to be on the safe side. I still think it is the battery but if your under warranty why let it go to waste?
This happened to me with an HTC Sensation back in 2011. They sent me another battery and it still did this. This could be a common defect among logic boards. Anyway, I get a warranty replacement right away. In your case, it won't matter what rom your using, it will always do this.

Thanks guys. I did what you said on Wednesday and AT&T is sending me another phone. Should arrive sometime today. My phone's been off for 3 days now. But with about 10% charge left, I'm curious about something.
Do you have suggestions on how I can make a backup/copy my settings from my old phone to the new one? Remember, my port isn't working. So not sure if this is even possible.

Best bet would prob be to see if you can get an app quick that backs up everything onto the SD card and swap the SD cards when the phone arrives. Or manually back up what you can to SD (pictures, songs etc) using apps like ES manager etc
PLEASE! Im experiencing same issue with my phone, any solution?
I purchased a defective sgh-i747m (Canadian version of the s4) and, when I connect the phone to as charger, the area where the charging cable connects to the motherboard gets extremely hot. When I try to boot the phone with a good battery, the Samsung logo appears, then the phone turns off. Can't seem to get the phone to charge the battery without getting really hot. Only solution I found was changing the motheboard.
i just got this problem today and a bad time because im leaving in a week, but i decide to leave with out a battery for a couple days see if that does anything
So i went to charge my GS4 last night , when i woke up the phone was off, no sign of life ...
So i did all the normal stuff, take out battery etc, still nothing, just wont even show any sign of life , put it back on charge, came back 30 mins later and it was warm , but still nothing?!
any ideas?
It would be wise to take it to customer center before trying anything else...
I guess its still in warrenty period,
It seems, that u got a faulty device, they might replace it..

God damn.....................
so annoying!
Happened to me last saturday night, i left with 8% of charge then sunday it was completely drained, i dont think it is dead because everytime i pull off the battery and re-insert it, the phone boots up showing the galaxy logo but having no charge it switches off.
Already called the customer service but they're taking too long to start the returning process of the phone having it for only 3 days i think its still in warranty (7 day returning warranty). I'm thinking of bringing it to a repair centre but would costs me about 60euros. Is it worthy to wait? Or bring it at repaircentre?

Its really weird .... my gs4 has started working, it seems it doesn't like it when you let it drain completely at all, ( thanks samsung)
although right now its HOT . for no apparent reason. so will see what happens.
btw, where can i get a stock ODIN flashable rom for the I9505 , preferably not from hotfile. it takes forever
so i have a g900f s5 and i fully charged it overnight, phone still working, then i unplugged it and went out, went to unlock it about half an hour later and the screen wouldnt turn on, yanked the battery and tried to get into download mode and nothing, no led indication or vibration, i imagine its completely dead and nothing but a board replacement will fix it, would a usb jig work to fix it, i dont have one on hand but can get one made by a friend
has anyone else had this issue or am i left with a brick
any help is appreciated

Have you got a friend or person you know who has a S5?
The first thing I'd do is see if the battery is shot, which I think is more likely the case.
A similar thing happened to my 2 year old S4 (with a battery that wasn't in the recall batch) where the phone would just charge to 100%, died after a minute or two, than takes 2 hours just to go to the charging screen saying 0% charge.

nah the batterys fine my mother has an s5, albeit stock unrooted and all that jazz and it goes fine in her phone
she actually uses my battery as a spare
EDIT: when i plug it in i can see the led flickering red very faintly
it also heats up rather fast to temps that i would consider not safe for a phone
