Screen turning off by itself? - Galaxy S3 Neo Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Recently my I9301I screen sometimes turns off suddenly, before 30 seconds as I set it on options. Not sure if it's system problem or faulty button, any idea? I'm on stock rom, unrooted and no any other mod.

Well i had this problem before
The fix is completely complicated but i managed to fix it
Charge your phone to 100%,
Unplug it
Go to the dialer app (original)
And type *#0228#
Press quick start in the bottom, and confirm your choice
Your battery percentage will drop suddenly to a very low level
Now pull back your battery
Charge your phone in offline mode for 8h
Pull your battery and reinsert it
Boot it
Enjoy

After I press quick start I pull off the battery? Then I charge the phone without battery or what ?

Unfortunately it's a faulty button.

Galaxy S wont' able to turn on after battery drained

Hi all !
I have a serious problem when my Galaxy S responses nothing (completely sleep in silence) with any tries to power it on. This happened right after running out of battery, then I plug it to wall for about 1 hour charging, but from that time I can not power it on again (the screen is silently dark).
Please help me to solve this case, and any of your solutions would be highly appreciated.
I would take the battery out for a minute and put it again. Of course plug the powercord out too. Phone should start then.
Sent from my GT-I9000 using XDA App
I have tried such operations :
1. Take battery out; push it in again; then push VOLUMNE DOWN+HOME+ POWER: but nothing is happended.
2. Take battery out; push it in again; then push VOLUMNE UP+HOME+ POWER: but nothing is happended too.
3. Take battery out; push it in again; then push VOLUMNE DOWN+ POWER: but nothing is happended
So, what should i do now ? is my phone bricked after battery drained out ?
My ROM is stock ROM, and I have done LagFix by RyanZ, is there any problem related to the playing Logo at bootime causing it can't be on again ?
Very important: after about 10 minutes taking battery out, push battery again, then plug charger into phone, there is a circular loading symbol appear in one second, then it disappear. Is there anybody know what does this loading symbol mean ?
Had the same problem, simply plug the charger into the mains and your phone. Leave for 15 minutes until the battery thing comes on, then unplug, boot, and charge.
I have done this, but i see nothing when plug-in the charger. No big battery icon at the center of screen as normal. Still unable to turn it on.

How to power-off (for real)

I just received my DHD and as soon as I inserted the battery, it powered on by itself. I plugged in mains for a long charge cycle (I don't want to use it while charging).
I want to power off for real but it seems that when I press the power button even for prolonged time, it just goes to standby. I want to charge it while powered-off. How do I do this?
I didn't have the chance to play with Android before so here I am asking easy questions I guess.
Try with this:
Tap the power button on the upper side of phone for few seconds, then you will see on the screen new window with three possibilities - power off, aeroplane mode and restart. Choose power off. Then you can charge your phone.
Other possibility - work/play with your phone till the battery is fully drained and the phone will switch off itself.
Hope this helps.
Regards.
go to settings applications and disable fast boot

Thank you all. That's what I was doing but I guess that the screen was locked and it didn't work. As soon as I unlocked the screen and performed this procedre it worked. I just didn't want to start working with the phone until it is fully charged and that's why I was trying to switch off without entering the phone.
If you don't disable HTC Fastboot you phone isn't really off, just hibernating.

Good point but I had to go through all setup steps until I am able to configure this setting. Anyway, I was planning to leave the phone charging untouched for several hours but I guess that wouldn't be possible.
My phone boots back into clockwork recovery even when fastboot is disabled.
Apparently the DHD uses the recovery to display the charging LED (orange or green), so when you replace the recovery with CWM attaching the charger when the phone is off will start CWM.

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!

Red light of death after Antutu Benchmark

The title pretty much explains it.
My N4 died on me today after running an Antutu Benchmark. I was running on Android 4.4 with the latest Fauxkernel (v29).
I can't boot it up anymore without the charging cable plugged in. When the charging cable is plugged in, the LED flashes red once, the display turns on and shows me the battery charging indicator and turns off just a couple seconds later also with the LED flashing red once. If I attempt to turn it on, the Google sign appears but the phone turns off immediately after that and once again, say Hi! to the red LED.
Pretty much tried everything so far, charging my battery, getting into the recovery menu, pushing down the power+VOL Up buttons for 60 seconds, etc. Nothing helped.
Maybe you guys know any way to fix it? I don't wanna open my device nor replace the battery if possible.
Thanks in advance.
2 ways to fix it. first, leave your phone on the charger for 3-4 hours. thwn try to boot it into the bootloader and press turn off the phone. let it charge further. if that doesnt work, remove the back cover, remove the battery, then clip the battery back in. the second method works 100%.

I can get into the bootloader but once I select power off, the phone just turns on again and shows me the battery charging indicator. Not sure if it's supposed to be like that but the indicator is completely filled so that would probably mean the battery is full.
Not sure if I have the right screwdrivers to open the back.

the reason for rlod is that the phone thinks that it is under 0% battery. leave it on the indicator that is filled, thats a good start. when that filled indicator starts the reguler behavior that it looks like its filling(up and down), thats when your phone will be fixed. leave it charging for a few hours.

Alright, I'll try that out. It's kinda annoying though that the display turns on every few seconds and turns off again but if it's going to work later that'll be worth it. Thanks alot!
if worst comes to worst, remove the battery and plug the battery back in. this will "reset" the battery(like a normal battery pull for devices with a removable battery).
seems the post may drive users a mis-understanding to AnTuTu Benchmark, I will ask our engineer to double check.

Weird behavior when charging while powered off.

Hi
Suddenly when powered off, I saw that when I plug in the charger, the battery icon pops up in the middle (as expected) the charging icon comes and that's it. It just shows a empty battery with a lightning icon. The weird part here is that i'm unable to turn the phone on the normal way and if I unplug the charger (even for minutes) the empty battery icon stays on and still can't turn on.
The only way to turn the phone on is home+power+vol down and when in download mode, choose cancel then restart.
I'm rooted on a custom rom, but haven't really changed anything.. Tried formatting and reinstalling everything.. Not seem to fix it.
Any ideas?
No problems on mine. Turned it off, plugged it in, got the battery icon with the percent of charge and three dots moving up from the bottom of the screen to the battery image. Pressed the power button for a couple of seconds, and it powered up like normal. I'd raise it with your ROM developer.
