HELP,
yesterday, I was using my nexus 7 for normal use, wasn't playing game, just browsing with chrome. the battery was 8 percent when I last saw it. I then proceed to charge it, but the thing suddenly just shut down itself. I thought I misread the battery percentage, so I charge it anyway. about an hour later, i checked on my nexus 7, turn it on, got to the boot screen, got to the home screen, use it for about 15 minutes, and suddenly, the screen black out, it was flickering like crazy, and making some white noise ish sound. I panicked so I hold down the power button and turn it off. I turn it on again, and after about 30 seconds, the same thing happened again. I was using motley's kernel with 520 GPU, and I thought, maybe my nexus 7 cant handle the GPU OC. So I went to recovery, tried playing with recovery for about a minute or so, but the screen didn't flicker at all on the recovery. So I flashed the 484 GPU version of motley's kernel. When I reboot to system, the same thing happened again. So I thought, maybe if I restore to my old backup, it would not be like this any more. so I wipe the data, dalvik, and cache, and I restore my old backup. But the same thing happened again, only this time, after I turn it off, it make a high pitched sound.
I waited for about 6 hours, and now when I turn my nexus 7 on again, it works normally.
So, what has happened to my nexus 7?

I'd say it is the overclock. Graphic cards do some weird stuff when overclocked. You can burn up your GPU doing that and cause it to forever freak out. I always shied away from GPU overclocks.

would that cause any permanent damage?

It should be ok if you reflash back to stock rom to make all the hardware back to reset mode. A warning always given when we try to flash rom with oc created.
i also experienced this one, also received a battery warning and then suddenly screen went blank. then same weird thing happened as the one above. I'm on paranoid android rom and i'm quite sure it's not overclocked or something. Was only able to get back to normal by holding the power button for around 15-20 seconds...
Happens to me
This will happen to me a lot when my nexus 7s battery dies, I plug the tablet in and then immediately try to start it up. It will work for around 30 seconds then look like an old TV without a signal. I am on stock everything, no rooting or custom Roms (yet). I always thought it had something to do with battery calibration being off and the tablet not having enough power to run, because it always works fine when I charge it before attempting to boot.
I have also noticed that every once in a while the screen will have a vertical line of pixels flicker.
Same thing happened to me yesterday...
I got the "low battery" warning and after some time the screen started flickering in many colors and there was a weird static noise.
I pushed the on/off button, but it wouldn't turn on again. After a few minutes of charging, I could turn it on again.
This isn't normal behaviour, is it? Shouldn't the N7 perform a regular shut-down when the battery has no juice left?
I'm on the rooted stock rom btw.

I faced the same problem. I dont know when the battery might have drained out, but on starting the tab on low battery, it suddenly started showing black screen with little grains and suddenly stopped with a noise. I charged, started the tab again while charging, and the battery reading stuck at 21% even after charging for 20 mins. Within 5 mins, it happened again. Now after 35 mins of charging, I start it again, it boots normal, and now its reading the battery percentage in an incremental value (started with 22%) and now its again stuck at 23%
Is this a HW related issue? Or do you think it is more of SW related issue? If it is more towards the HW side, we better have it replaced. Mine is C70 model.

just happened to me... it may have run out of juice... didn't turn on when I tried, so I guess it did... then I put it on the charger, tried booting it, went away for a sec and when I came back I also got this black screen with some flicker and a static noise...
will now try to charge it over night before trying again...
Nexus 7/Google problems
I received my Nexus 7 on Aug 21 after hearing the rave reviews. It didn't come with app for a camera, so I downloaded one.
The camera didn't work. I re-booted it & it worked this time. Downloaded Skype - whole reason for getting the tablet - to stay in touch with family that is far away. Tried to Skype - camera wouldn't work. Rebooted - worked this time again (getting tired of having to reboot for something I want to use to work). On Sept 2, sent message to Google inquiring about camera & app I downloaded. Only response - "thank you for contacting...blah, blah, blah - check out Q&A." All along, the tablet would shut itself down & reboot randomly (battery fully charged sometimes). On Sept 13, I shut it down & charged it. After a full charge, I tried to power it back on. Tried again several times that night & then the next morning. Called Google (who I bought it from). Told them I didn't want a piece of junk that wouldn't work. He told me it was past my remorse period. (The only remorse I have is buying their piece of crap instead of a reputable one.) I finally did get it to come back on, but camera hasn’t work since even after a complete factory reset. Any way – in order to get this one fixed, I have to “buy” a new one, then send back the old one & be reimbursed. Is this a legitimate business practice?
hi,
since today i have the same issue. did nothing special, just swichting from g currents to chrome. stock rom, no modifications, not rooted, everything original
n7 suddenly had a black screen(battery was at 28%). nothing worked, no powerswitch(10-30 secs). when connected to original power supply and cable, it boots up.. google logo .. glowing X.. lockscreen. then, approx. 30 sec later it turns off again(screen black). usb cable still connected. after some time it comes up again.. and repeats the procedure. after some cycles it stops, and when i reconnect the usb calbe it starts over again. sometimes, before it turns black, it shows a flickering screen and sometimes fizzling sound.
any suggestions?
I had this same issue right after the 4.2 ota update, after leaving it on charge overnight it seems fine now after a couple of discharge / charge cycles
Its like after the update it was over estimating the battery level

Same thing!
I have a completely stock Nexus 7, and the EXACT same problems are happening to me too! The first couple of times it happened my tablet would reboot normaly. But now, my tablet won't boot up at all. Any suggestions on what I should do? Also, remember, I have no mods installed.
Happening to me too.My N7 shut itself down because of low battery a couple hours ago and I haven't been able to get it to boot since. When I plug it into the charger it shows a flickering screen like a tv with no signal but with less white flickers. I've tried multiple chargers and cables but I could only get it to boot up a couple times and both times it did not show that it was charging even though it was plugged in and the battery was at 0% so as soon as it boots up it shuts itself down again because of low battery.
So now I've got it on the charger, screen all a'flicker, waiting for it to get a charge but I've got a feeling its not even charging because, like I said, the few times it has booted it showed the battery at 0% and not charging.
I guess I'll try to leave it alone for a while and see if it will start up after being plugged in for a bit.
EDIT: I let it sit there and charge for about an hour or so (with the screen flickering) and I was finally able to get it booted. It said it only had 3% battery but now it seems to be charging as fast as usual.

Yup... I've let mine sit there turned off and charging over night... helped!
Just had a problem with the Nexus 7 not charging when battery was likely fully depleted. Putting a charge cable in was automatically booting the Nexus 7 up and wouldn't charge shutting down right after. Loops going on and off. What I did was plug a charge cable in and hold power+both volumes and now I believe I am charging at the bootloader screen. It stays on so I will leave it like this and if it doesn't resolve the issue I will try recovery once it is charged.
I've just started having the same issue. Has happened twice when battery gets to 8%, suddenly jumps to 0, shuts down, then after a few seconds restarts itself. Gets to home screen for a few seconds, battery showing 8, then jumps to zero, switches off and has flickering blocks on screen with static noise. This keeps repeating, only way I have found to solve it is to load into bootloader, then select power off. Device charges normally then and once charged works fine. I am unlocked and rooted but running stock 4.2.1, think I'll just have to return it for a warranty claim.
Based on what you experienced, the lesson here is your device can't handle the GPU over clock of more than 446mhz or it will do some crazy stuff.

hi all, today when my nexus 7 left around 15% battery, it showed the warning sign to ask me charge it, so i thought of finish download 1 small apps before charging it. just before i hit the install button, the screen suddenly turn off and whole device was power off.
i tried to on it back (press for 30sec) but no use. so i go and charge it, after trying many times, i finally managed to on it back, but just after few minutes, the screen appear many lines ( just like those old tvs) and it turn off again...then, i tried many times only i managed to on it back.
after that, i continue to leave it there to charge. but after almost 4 hrs( and still counting), the battery only 45%.
wat had happen to my nexus 7? previously i had no such issues, and normally i can fully charge it within 3 hrs. i just got it for 1 week, can anyone tell me what happened? will it damaged my device?
thanks.
no people facing same issue as me?
hey there, im facing the exact same issue and symptoms as you!
the sudden off, the old screen tv effect and shuts down again.
a battery logo appeared though and im leaving it to charge now. strangely it was showing 18%
im running cm10, what about you?
I've had the same issue for first 2 times I charged the Nexus, then it went away. Seems to be battery related, faulty battery?
Same thing happens to me as well. Happened on stock 4.1.2 and happens on stock 4.2 as well. I never try to let it reach below 20%, just to be on the safe side.
Me too!

It happens to me too
Not sure if it's battery related but it happened twice and this is what my battery graph looks like.
Anybody with more info?
I am also on CM10 using setCPU app to control CPU speed when the power is low.
There is one other thread talking about this:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=34878700#post34878700
I placed my info there too.
Edit: It's actually happened the last 3 days now ... I'm going to exchange it today.
I get a message "shutting down, low battery" I used to get message telling me to connect to charger. Before I could finish what I was doing now I have no choice. Seems to happen after update 4.3
fix
somehow the battery calibration is out. only fox is to leave it charging for about 20 mins before trying to turn it on. as by then only will the 'x' logo appear. OR if you cant wait popout the back cover, remove/unplug the battery it works. another longer fix is to. turn in back on after it is able to, go to battery settings refresh it, plgg and unplug your charger. the shutdown logo should appear again and when you look to the top, the battery % will revert to its correct amount of 0% try to do this as soon as it is able to be turned on.
Hi guys,
I got a serious problem. I imported a Nexus 4 from France to Belgium because it isn't availible in my country, I have it for three weeks now and I was very satisfied.
My friend received a S3 for Christmas so I decided to install Antutu; to compare the two phones.
Anyway, the Nexus just randomly crashed. It wouldn't turn on.
I tried to hard reset it, it didn't work.
I plugged it in to charge, for about an hour; it was blinking red, but still nothing.
Then I connected it in on my PC, the battery icon apperead, I clicked the powr button the Google logo appared again but it turned off.
Now it isn't recognized at all, there is no red blinking led and not recognized on PC..
Any help or I have to find a way to RMA it?
thanks a lot
use search
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=34588102&postcount=46
I have tried it but it isn't charging, I'll wait for an hour again.
I did lot of searching..
I had a similar problem while running Antutu yesterday
My phone was charged up to about 98% .. At this time I decided to run the benchmark when my phone suddenly turned off 1/2 way through..
I then decided to hold the power button for 10 secs to no avail..
I connected the charger to see if the screen would light up and lo and behold the phone started charging but I discovered my battery had drained to 0% all the way from 98%..
I wasnt sure what caused this so i let it charge for 2 mins then i turned on the phone....It was still at 3%....i left the phone connected to the charger for 15 mins but it never chrged past 3% so i disconnected the charger and restarted the phone..
By the time the phone was booted up, the battery was back to its original 98% and i havent experienced the problem since then even though i have run the antutu benchmark multiple times after the restart...
I find it odd though that we both experienced the problem while running antutu....my best guess is that there is a particular test that interferes with our phones power management
RMA was my only solution...
thanks anyway
Hi guys,
My Nexus 7 (2012) turned off(not properly) when the battery level was low and won't power on. I tried a battery from a working tablet and tested my battery in another tablet. It seems like the issue is somewhere else.
These are the things I tried:
- leave it for a couple of hours charging (no battery sign at all)
- hold the power button with/without the volume levels while it being both connected and disconnected.
- tested my battery in another tabled and put a fully charged battery from another tablet
- made sure that the battery is connected
There was one more thing I tried - to press the Power button with no battery inside but the tablet being connected to a laptop via the USB cable. One could hear something like a boot noise coming from the tablet (doesn't happen when the battery is inside)
In December, 2015 I installed a Custom ROM with android 5.1.1 which I found here http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-7/development/android-6-aosp-grouper-t3268172/ (the thread was renamed and is now about the Android 6 update) The tablet worked fine for these 3 months but one day when I was checking my email it went off and won't respond to any actions.
Could you please help me to fix it? I'm just not ready to give up on this tablet. Thanks!
Both you and i, same model, essentially, the same circumstances. I also tried every method you mentioned as well. Even down to the flashing of a rom. Same results. I even tried "jump starting" the battery. Not wanting to give up on it. It sits in my closet like that boy in A.I at the bottom of the ocean, waiting... I know that is not the reply or help you were looking for. Just so you know, you are not alone..

Well, that's a good start, at least I am not the only one!
Have you tried to connect your device via USB? My laptop can see a connected device but it can't recognize it and I hear some sounds coming from the tablet when I try to hold the `power` button. This made me think that it can be a display/screen related, so the device works but we can't see it due to the broken screen/display. Don't know how to check that though.
Same here, stock Nexus 7, won't turn on, just switched off one day and won't come back on, have tried everything as suggested above, can't get it to flicker, doesn't even register the power connection with a green light or anything

Try replacing the screen, just to check. If that doesn't fix it, at least you have a brand new screen!

same issue here as well ive had it for about a year and im not able to access anything via my pc google help forums had no answer either, looks like we may be screwed..........
Hi, I just had same issue with my tablet only thing is that I was using it with ~20% of battery, nothing special - browsing the web using chrome, then the screen lit gray and shut off. After that no response either from charger, holding power button for 60+ seconds didn't work either, tried re-connecting the battery, still with no signs.
And then, I tried to plug in the charger and then pressing VolumeDown+Power immediately after connecting the charger. Suddenly got some response, that battery charging icon appeared, and it shows my battery charging, but from 0%. Still waiting to charge a bit until I can try to boot it.
I'll update this post with any news.
EDIT: When I connected my tablet to the charger it had that hissing sound, but after few minutes it stopped.
After 15 minutes of charging I managed to boot my Nexus7 with 7% of charge in it a that moment, It seems to work for now.
Summarry of what I did to solve my problem:
1. Opened the back of the N7 (I used a guitar pick for this) and re-connect the battery.
2. Then plugged in the charger and at the same time pressed VolumeDown+Power, battery icon lit up but went out, repeated step 1, and then step 2 again gave me animated battery charging animation which showed up for like 10 seconds
3. Waited for 10-15 minutes and tried to boot normally. And it works now

Honestly, I do not think it is the battery, I can see the Charge signal, and the Battery is showing 1,784 VDC tested unplugged and disconnected, my smart young co-worker seems to think POST is failing, I still never see a "Charging" indication.
Does anyone know , Is there a fail safe, say the battery is disconnected, and usb charger is plugged in, will i just see all 5VDC at the sub port, ?
I never see a screen flicker, DEAD battery sign, nothing.
co-worker, tried some things that made sense when he explained what he did, I would have to agree with him.
Now it is rooted, 4.x something I forget, Never went to 5.x did once early and did not like it, Back stock, ran 2 days no issues, Rooted again, 4.x still do not remember, worked great 3-4 months, Sons ran it to DEaD and that was it, put it up for 90 days or so, wife got new tablet, kids have Fire each, and here i am tabletless, CRAP, did not want to throw to much $$$$ at this thing, nor did I want to buy a new one.

Hello,
I received the YotaPhone 2 (YD206) today.
The box was sealed.
When I tried to turn on the phone, it didn't start. I thought it was empty so I put in on charger for 2 hrs.
After that I tried again , but still nothing happened -- i was holding power button multiple times, as long as 5 minutes at the time, but there was simply no response -- no vibration, no sound, screen remains black (not turned on), anything at all.
I tried different chargers as well (Xiaomi and Samsung one) -- they weren't working with this phone either.
When I connect phone to a PC, I just hear sound that something is connected (I saw installing drivers notice first time I connected it), but nothing happens at all. I don't see the phone in my computer or anywhere else.
Is there way I can fix this somehow? What else can I try?
Thanks!
You can try unlocking the bands like described here.
Not sure it will help but you can at least try.

Sounds like the phone is defect. The only thing I can think of is that it somehow freezed up and you will need to let the battery drain so all power is off the phone and then try to recharge it. Draining the phone completly without screen use can take up to 7 days.
I finally managed to turn it on,by keeping it on charger for whole day and night and after a couple of attempts it was on.
I thought battery voltage was pretty low which prevented it from turning on.
I used a phone for a day, completely discharged it and then recharged it to 100% again. I thought everything is gonna be good now.
Then I wanted to upgrade to Lollipop, I decided to use YotaFlasher to flash EU KitKat first, and that worked fine. After that, I used OTA update to download Lolipop.
Download finished, and I was offered to "restart device and apply update", but as soon as I confirmed, the device went off and I can't turn it on anymore. What the heck is happening with this yotaphone? (battery was at 97%)
I can't turn it on, restart, put in download or recovery mode, get it to charge or get the screen on. Also PC don't recognize it *AT ALL* -- not even sound that something is connected. It looks completely dead (again).
Any ideas what I can do to fix my new problem?
