[Q]The phone shuts down!!! - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My gt-9301i will be charged and function as normal , no performance issues at all when the phone is actually on. But sometimes, my phone will randomly shut off with no message but the screen starts to change brightness for a few seconds and the phone turns off. Sometimes it will attempt to turn back on itself but it comes to samsung logo and turns off again then I have to connect the charger to turn it on(with the charger works without any issue,the problem happens when it not charging)when it finally is on almost 20% of battery got drained ,I have tried other roms (the problem started with stock rom) but it still the same issue,the problem happens almost when I am using the phone for games or when I am using programs with wifi,,if anybody had the same issue ,is it a battery problem so I should replace it or something else?

I think its a battery problem. Try another battery for a day. If the problem persists then you have a hardware problem.

It was the battery,

Charging Issue

Has anyone ever had an issue where by their battery life is at say 59% and when i plug it in to charge rather than the blue charging icon appearing it just showing the battery being 100% and the LED doing successive double flashing as opposed to a static LED like i should be if it was charging?
I've not installed anything, flashed a new rom etc, was fine yesterday.
All i did was have a little play with CHTEditor.
somethings not right, it must be something to do with me messing about with CHTEditor
out of the blue my lock screen had gone, and it says i have a voice mail waiting when i dont. haha
Hard reset i think
update...
hard reset not worked...uhoh
Same problem here
I was in a phone call an al of a sudden everything just went black and rebooted. Turns out the phone stopped charging and flasing green and red. Battery ran out of power and the phone shut down. After the reboot the phone charged normally again
Another situation:
Phone started acting up again and endend in a reboot. Battery was empty and i made a phone call on the charger. during the phonecall the same problem happend again, but the battery was at 9%. I intended to unplug the charger and plug it back in, but after the unplug the battery jumped to 0% and shut down.
So, i think the battery is acting up. Having to charge the thing every damn day is finally taking it's toll.

yep, using the original battery, it seems to be ok now, charging as it should.
ahh well. cheers for the reply
one last this, how the hell to i get the lock screen back, i think im being dim.
edit
sorted
I have a program BsB Tweaks that has a setting for the lockscreen. Try that.
My phone is also charging fine when turned off, also it functions fine at the moment. i think it has something to do with overloading the device when the battery is low. Based on that its not possible to turn on any phone when the battery is in attached but the power is, i think everything is drained from the battery while charging it and that when overloading the battery just doesn't pull it anymore.
i don't have a alternative battery, mine is original.
What are the symtoms when the battery is at the end of it's life? does it do this, or is it supposed to give a warning or something?
edit: i am unable to find a manual page describing the different modes the LED could be blinking. I'm curious what is says about the red and green blinking mode. Does such a page exist?

If it is really just standing for 1 minute, then it's your battery's problem! But if you've just enlarged the problem, you can calibrate your battery by charging it to 100%, then unplugging, let it drain the charge to 0% and turn off automatically. Try to turn it on without plugging till when it can't get turn on anymore. Then without turning it on, just plug it and charge it again to 100% (The LED goes to green). Then you can turn it on again. This may help!

the phone works in recovery mode without charging.. but it doesn't after booting

Nexus 4 won’t boot up/work without charger plugged in

My phone is shutting down automatically after showing “google” logo. I went back to stock lollipop 5.0.1 but the problem still persist. It’s working fine with the charger plugged in. If I remove the charger after switching on, if I kept it idle, it will stay on till the battery is empty. But if I try to do something it will shutdown. In recovery mode it works well without the charger.
Please help me is anyone facing the same issue.
may be you should try flashing a new kernel
i tried stock Google images still no use.
Is there any noticeable bulge to the battery? It might be a battery issue.
This is almost certainly a battery issue.

I don't think its a battery issue, because if i keep my device idle it'll last 1 day.
It only crashes if i use the phone, even swiping home screens crashes the phone.
Well, you've already gone back to pure stock which rules out a software issue, and so the next thing I thought would be a battery issue. I have read here about defective batteries causing all sorts of problems like losing signal, non responsive touchscreens and bootloops, and so it's a possibility that this is a battery problem.
I got strange problem with my n4..
Battery % randomly change and shut down, unsensible touchscreen, battery icon disappear from menu..
Maybe this hw problem could touch the SW part
that's how my problem started

battery arrived everything is good
I have a same problem
My nexus 4 cant't turn on without charger plugged in. But when I go to Recovery, it work fine. A few days ago, it's sometime shutdown suddently when I was playing game. Then it worked fine after I plugged charger in and turn it on. Is this battery issue?
So even when the device is fully charged it won't boot into Android?

It can boot with a little trick (press the lock icon on boot screen continuously) and work fine with charger plugged in. When unplugged the phone shutdown immediately

Lenovo K4 note Charging Problem

Hi,
recently I am experiencing this deadly problem .
my battery drains completely to the amount that phone can't even boot . biggest problem is that its like phone is not accepting charge . after it loses all the charge,it turns off . when I connect charger it vibrates randomly . it feels like battery doesn't even have the charge to load that Lenovo battery charging animation page(while switched off ). phone goes to soft brick stage .after a few vibrations(I think phone is vibrating one time before loading battery charging page ,phone can't even load that charging page ,may be due to very low charge .so it vibrates and attempts to load battery charging page,and it goes off . again vibrates... somehow it recovers from the loop after some time )it loads battery charging page , and would stuck at 2%,or 8% etc... after long some 6-8 hours phone regains control and charge normally and everything coming to normal .I can't figure out what this problem is . only thing I figured out is that this happens when phone reaches a certain low battery percentage like below 20% .
after that phone will not accept charge until it goes off and all the above things ...
pls someone look into this matter ,may be someone else might have experienced this or someone can give me a clue
This problem has been faced by many users, including me. I thought it was only me, until one of my friends faced it too. Apparently, there might be a problem with battery stats. If you charge when it is fully drained, It will vibrate a few times. This happens because, the phone always keeps 2% of battery for the offline charging screen to load(the charging screen while off). But when the phone's battery is fully drained to 0% then it will vibrate and stays like that before it can switch on. So to solve this, charge the phone and leave it like that until its fully charged or like when you feel it is stuck(while the phone is switched off only). Then switch it on, and fully drain it again. Now once again charge the phone and leave it. Then drain. Do not remove until the phone until it shows 100%. Repeat this few times. This is actually to calibrate the battery stats. Now you'll see that battery charges properly.

Are you on stock or custom rom? If you are on custom rom, you can enable usb fast charging and charge it with computer. It helped me.

i've tested most of the ROMs out here . thought it could be a ROM related issue . macblaze,mohancm,zormax ROMs . currently on zormax's Lineage OS 13 (Marshmallow) . which one to you prefer?

No. It's not rom related issue. Each rom has some unique capability. Any rom is good. You can use Kernel Auditor to enable usb fast charge and charge the phone with any computer. This will work on any rom which has a kernel which supports usb fast charge

let the battery drain all the way to the 0%. ive had same issue few times with my s7 edge it would not respond to any command no matter what i do, then all of the sudded after i didint touch the phone for abouth 6-7 hours i put it on charge again and 0% was shown and started charging.
most probably its a motherboard issue and should be replaced at least in my case

Thanks for your response, i've left it unplogged for more than a day and still nothing. Should i wait longer?
How expensive would replacing the motherboard be?

I'm only telling from my experience, untill your battery is 0 it will be like that presuming it has somewhat same issue as mine . Try pressing buttons from time to time it could help to drain battery faster . On second hand market it should not be more then 40-50 euro. Also AliExpress has motherboards but not new, used

R.I.P S7 edge 2016-2019 will be missed
Same thing ! Phone just totally dead.
The same thing just happened to my S7edge today... I think it's a conspiracy so that we are forced to change the phone.
Sad, I liked that phone.
Nothing would work, it started at first a rebooting loop, then suddenly stopped giving any sense of life.
Doesn't show any indication when plugging the charger. nor responsive to any of the rebooting button combinations...
I even had it on stock Rom and never flashed any customer ROM on it or anything.
I think leaving the phone battery to drain as a solution only works if your phone was already on and it just gave a black screen, but it's still on.
But in my case, it was already in a rebooting loop and I suspect it is not even ON anymore, it just went totally off somehow...
So there is no was to know if the battery is draining.
update:
So I left it overnight. In the morning, I connected the charger and indeed it drained to 0% and started being responsive to charging again.
As soon as it charged to 20% I powered it on. It loaded into recovery, giving the no command screen. Then I went on and selected system reboot.
Then it rebooted and Android started, as soon as I tried unlocking it, it froze and started again into an endless rebooting loop until it blacked out again. Now again not responsive.
I will leave it to drain again. Does anyone know what I shall do when it gets to that endless rebooting sequence. It is obvious that Android had a malfunction... not sure what as I didn't do anything new last week..
Is there a way to get it through without factory reset?
Thanks
