Hey everyone! So, like the title says, my phone is starting to have an issue where it won't charge past a certain point (I believe 75% unless I reboot my phone (1 or 2 times).
Am I correct in thinking that this sounds like some weird software issue since a reboot occasionally fixes it? By the way, I'm running OB 11.
Has anyone else ever experienced this?

Nope never seen this before, have you got TWRP? I'd backup and do a clean flash to see if that helps.
Have you installed any Magisk modules that limit the charging of the battery? Something like Battery Life Extender or Advanced Charging Controller (acc) modules?

Hi
Has anyone experienced that the tablet switches off constantly with out any any specific reason?
I could easily surf or read an email without switching off.. but then i would watch a movie and it switch off instantly or the other way around and its not even shutting down.. it just goes from powered on, to completely switched off.. It does not get hot and it does charge perfectly and the battery level does not drop/discharge radically.. it has never been dropped or manhandled. and it started doing last week
I'm on stock 3.2 PDA:KMP CSC:KMP (XAB), not rooted..
Any ideas, suggestions?
Thanks in advance
I suggest you to discuss your matter from where have you bought the notebook as there might be some problem in hardware

I used to own a Galaxy Tab plus 7.0, which experienced this known problem of random reboot and/or sleep of death. You could google that to find out more.
I've since returned it for a refund. Then I picked up this used P7500 a month ago. It has not experienced not even one reboot. Sure, apps do crash from time to time, but the OS never completely froze.
How long have you owned your unit? If relatively new, I would returned it. If for a while, and only recently you experienced the problem, then I would do a factory wipe, or at least re-trace your steps and uninstall the last few apps. Also, ask yourself whether the problem is already related to certain apps. If so, get rid of those apps.
hi
Did a complete wipe.. so now its close as possible to factory default..
Could it be a battery calibration error? it works plugged in to either pc or wall socket.. works 10min after but then switches of randomly
Thanks for all the help/suggestions so far really appreciate it!
I know some mentioned the option of returning it.. But its bought in the US and im located in Denmark!

Hello everyone,
I would like to know how many of you are experiencing the different kinds of SOD on the Nexus 4.
I found few references to the SOD issue, but no one could tell exactly why this is happening.
Some say it's a software issue (some say it only started to occur at JB)...
Some say it's an hardware issue.. some of them RMAed, and got a new phone with exactly the same SOD issue.
I would like to dedicate this thread to this problem and see how many other Nexus 4 users are experiencing this SOD.

Never had one so far. Running stock 4.2.2/Franco kernel nightly_110
-Edit- currently undervolted -75 mV.
just stop messing your phone up with stupid OCing and benchmarks... This issues are installed to protect the hardware from crashing... ( Red light of death... )
My phone just fine. never had this SOD.
Never had an issue on this device. On my old phone, dropping the min CPU speed too low would cause it a LOT.

You don't have an option for unable to turn on phone without a reset: no blinking led. This is also a scenerio.
Please take a look here! http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2195278
I've tried almost everything (wipe& re wipe , install stock ) and nothing seem to solve it.... most frustatin thing is when I hit "home" after playing heavly and ...bamm it goes black screen & hav to reboot pressin home&vol+
Are you using a custom kernel to undervolt? That can cause SOD.

Im using it now (customROM&UV) since it doesnt affect my issue.... I tried completly stock for 2 days and keep crashin... or at least on g.earth as I didnt install any app/game to be sure its not an app related issue.
Cant figure out what happens, it can play games w/o any issue, but sometimes when I change orientation it just goes black
PD: I dont hav enough time, but ill do a logcat to see what can possibily make it freeze
My case is not listed in the poll options:
- the phone went into standy, good battery, no calls, no high loads;
- LED was inactive totally.
- then I was unable to turn it on normally (only through reboot).
While in this state, trying to call the phone resulted in "long" tones, i.e., like the network saw the phone. The phone did not ring.
This happens with the latest stock firmware on the 2nd day of my use. Non-reproducible. Phone returned.
Would be delighted to learn if that's a hardware or software issue
Not necessarily SOD but experienced extreme battery drain under these situations
1- Charging via USB and left phone connected after PC shut down.
2- Charging via Wireless Charger left it on the pod.
In 1st ASA pc is shut down
and
In 2nd ASA Phone charged completely , as I suspect the charging process goes backwards ! It someone drain current from your battery to the power source.
AFAIK none of these issue are positive with normal good old AC charging. However you can still use a workaround by using the app called "Safe Charge"
This is my experience
Hi,
my i9305 behaves a bit strange recently, and I wonder if it's a hardware flaw or a software porblem
As you can see in my sig I'm up to date with OmniROM nightlies, and as my phone refuses to charge the battery properly (a problem with the usb jack I'd say) I think it may be both
Now, here's my problem: I'm trying to back up all my apps in order to move most of the stuff to my new mobile, but during backup it happens to reboot after a while.
I tried to make a logcat (attached), but honestly speaking I don't have a clue what to look for, as I'm no coder.
Can anyone take a look and maybe hint me to what may be the problem? I'm totally lost

soft reboot (bootanimation) or hard reboot (back to bootloader)?
Since you're running a modified configuration (changed kernel) - no clue what's going on. I'm going to assume the problem is the modified kernel until you're actually running Omni as opposed to modified pseudo-Omni.
Hi.
I have been having very strange issues with my battery, and I hope that there are some people here who know about the hardware more than I do and might be able to help me.
First of all, the battery indicator is unstable, it can show me 49% of battery and suddenly tell me there is only 10% left. I am attaching a screenshot of my battery stats where those spikes are visible.
Or worse, the battery indicator might suddenly jump to 0% and make the phone turn off, then when I turn it on it shows that it has at least 25% left.
Second problem, I very often can't charge the phone. I connect the charger, and the notification LED doesn't light yellow, instead, the whole battery menu just disappears from the settings so I can't access it... And after a few hours it might begin actually charging, then the menu is visible.
Battery temp always shows -30 degrees celsius, or some similarly impossible temperature.
After trying to switch to a different kernel (from unleashed to hells core) and to a different rom (from purity to android L and liquidsmooth) I decided this is an hardware problem and bought a new (hopefully original) battery on ebay.
I installed the new battery. Now it does work a little bit better, but still, the problems persist.
Is there anything I can do, before buying a new phone?
It doesn't have warranty anymore, it's one and a half years old.
Thanks
Definitely battery failure. Replace the battery or buy a new phone

This is most definitely due to a faulty battery, so time to get a new phone. At least Shamu's release is right around the corner.
Hi
Thanks for your help.
I did replace the battery a few days ago, and the problem still persists. Which makes me think it's something else.

I'd try comletly stock rom, and see if the issue persists.
Yup, stock ROM always first step, then replace battery. If it still persists, than it is most likely some other hardware issue that might not be worth it to replace.

Exactly same situation with my Nexus 4. Battery being replaced and it's not better. Just ordered a Moto X 2014 and waiting for it.
I tried the stock ROM. And it didn't solve the problem. Is there anything else I can check about the hardware before replacing the whole phone?

Have you just flashed a stock rom, or completley restored the phone to factory settings using google factory images?

Hmm unfortunately this leaves me without any ideas. May ask how old is your phone and did you drop it previously?
It's one and a half years old, and well, I did drop it a lot.However, I always used a good case (ringke fusion) and I don't recall any recent drops prior to the time the problems started.
The strangest thing just happened to me. While I was charging my OPT it failed to register my fingerprint. Upon asking me for my pin, the touchscreen acted very erratic, and after 5 seconds stopped working completely. The moment I disconnect the charge cable everything works fine!
If my calc or any other app is open it also registers a lot of touches without touching the screen. It's nothing you can replicate. Kinda spooky actually lol.
I've tried a couple of things already, rebooted, killed most apps, checked the charge cable (original) and port but to no avail.
I have the US version and am on the latest stock ota, but rooted. I'm about to do a restore and after that clean install if necessary. I just wanna check if anyone experienced this before.
I will lost back if I get to the bottom of this. Hopefully it's not the hardware.

Does not happen so often on my OP2 but it happened a lot on my Nexus 4. This is a known issue with many devices but nothing you should worry about.

Thats not great news burnoutslo! It's pretty annoying that you can't use your phone while charging. I've noticed that once it reaches 100% everything's ok again so it definitely seems software related, probably android if other devices have the same problems. I will do a nand restore back to the previous oxygen version over the weekend. Hopefully it solves my problems.

I observed same thing yesterday,
The whole scenario was-
Yesterday when my battery gone below 15% i ran for the charger and plugged in and after that i started using phone and i noticed that my touchscreen becomes less responsive.
Difficulty in swiping between home screen, opening of apps during swiping.
So the solution i found that if i stand on the ground barefooted then only i am having this problem, when i put slippers on then its perfectly fine.
So may be it is some kind of grounding issue.
same here; issues sometimes when charging; I didn't see the differences between sleeper and barefoot but I also think it's a ground problem...

I had once this issue on cm12.1 oneplus 2 . What I did to solve this problem successfully.
1. I removed case from my phone . This causes grounding issues sometimes.
2. Reflashed OxygenOS.
3. Then I flashed cm on top of it. Wiped data, cache, dalvik only. didn't wiped system partition.
4. That's it. I'm. I'm typing right now while charging. Totally perfect.
I noticed it more with my cheaper USB C cables.
I bought a half dozen and some are better than others.
the boxed cable that was stock is the best by far.
Yesterday i aux in my phone to a audio player and observed the same problem again with touchscreen. Feeling very annoyed because of this and other bugs.
My phone used to lock up completely for up to 30 seconds after plugging in the charger. After move to cyanogenmod 13 this does not happen anymore, so obviously a bug in OxygenOS.

Hmm, this is generally not a problem with your phone or your software, but relates to the power supply. Noise in the power or grounding issues specifically cause the 'ghost touches' and erratic behaviour you describe. If you are lucky, your charger and cable are also fine and the issue is with the power socket, in which case you need an electrician to come and take a look. If its the charger/cable, then simply get a new one and you are good to go.
To figure out where the issue is, start by using the same charger + cable in a different location (completely different physical location). If the problem persists, then try changing the cable in that same location. If it still persists, try a different charger.
If the problem is NOT there at the alternate location, then chances are its your wiring and you need an electrician to sort this out for you.
