I have gone through countless battery reconditions, following various methods, very tediously, various roms (nero, bionix, trigger, etc.) trying to get acceptable battery life. After a lot of detective work I finally pinned down the problem to the 'mediaserver' process within the system processes. It runs CONSTANTLY and drains the batter within half a day from a full charge. This problem has been documented on google code: http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=6765
The process cannot be killed via any task manager as it seems to be a sub-process. So I finally mustered the courage to move the file from its directory into the parent directory to see if that would do the trick and restarted.
Now I'm stuck on the boot screen.
Can someone please help find a solution for this issue? I think I can recover from the boot screen issue but I know I will just encounter the same issue again and again.
I am currently on the trigger 2.6.1.
Help?
I should also ask if it is possible to even ODIN back to stock with a ROM that has the voodoo fix enabled?

you can odin back
ODIN back and re-flash...Honestly, the Vibe gets OK battery life (most smartphones eat power like a fat kid eats cake).
I did a search and looked through the threads, some were similar but none were exactly like mine... which has me worried. also google didn't help... which has me worried
My battery charges, and discharges ( i think) normally. I don't see any problem with the actual usage. But, the battery indicator only updates when it is plugged in or unplugged, or i restart it. while it's running it doesn't update, so i have to guess at the level of battery.
I just bought a "re-certified" one from newegg. it did the latest ICS OTA update immediately after turning it on. It had this problem on stock OTA, but i have since rooted it with ViperMOD (still stock ROM), and the issue is still there.
I have read about battery calibration, deleting battery stats, etc - would these be applicable? how do I actually go about doing it?
Thanks for any info!
I would backup all my data (Using Titanium Backup), backup your ROM then either flash to something new or delete all your data. Obviously you can restore everything once your done but just to see if this is a software or hardware issue.
Have you tried any other battery widget? Does it update in settings -> about tablet -> status and/or settings -> battery?
If not, you should try reflashing like mike suggested.
I have tried "Beautiful Widgets" battery widget, as well as stats - and they all show the same level.
ty, will do. do you have a recommendation for rom? stock like with stability and battery life? no dock...
Android Revolution HD look ok?
thanks again
yeah didn't help. i did a wipe from within CWM, and installed Android Revolution.
Is there anything i can do to wipe to wipe it further, safely? before i go through the process of trying to RMA it.
I am fully charging it and then will reset the battery stats and discharge it, as that's said to be good anyway once in awhile and i don't have anything better to do...
if it comes down to it, how might i unroot before sending this back? i have the image from before flashing, but that was after rooting and installing CWM.
Deleting battery stats won't improve your battery life. It's a MYTH.

The correct way to calibrate your battery is to discharge it 2-3 times after flashing a new rom/kernel.
Hey guys, i have been owning this piece of great phone for almost two years. But it never gave me a big issue.
Nevertheless, few months back i flashed cm12 and it worked great too.. I had been using it gracefully till i decided to update to cm12.1. So i decided to update, but the update always crashed google play services. The update did not happen automatically so i had to flash the zip through custom recovery (already installed) by myself.
I could not come out of that so i went ahead and did a full wipe and flashed cm12.1 along with gapps. Since then when i am unplugged it goes only to about few minutes (on battery) and shuts down. So, i now decided that this piece of update is buggy and did a full wipe and reflashed the original cm12 zip and gapps which i had placed in the first place. But, to my horror even this time it could not go past the bootscreen even and turns itself off when its about to start up. (Battery is full charged, did an overnight charge as well).One very unusual thing i noticed that almost all the the time i try to power it on it showed me "optimising app X of Y" which is weird. This kinda happens only on first boot.
But if i keep my phone plugged in to ac charge then it works fine.. but only last night it hanged and turned off even on charge. So there i decided that the cm thing is not for me. So i followed this tutorial and flashed the stock 5.1.1 rom (did a full wipe, tried oem lock and re unlocked and proceeded too).
But, i find the same problem same issue!! When unplugged my device, it just turns off even on full battery charge.
Can someone explain me the technical parts of the issue and what has gone wrong and how it can be fixed?
Please, Thanks
EDIT
Last time i locked - unlocked bootloader and proceeded with a fresh factory image flash, the device turned off on boot even when plugged in to my mac and it's hot on the back side
Sounds to me like there''s something physically wrong with the phone, probably the battery. Time for a new one anyway. Lithium batteries degrade with use. After ~500 charge cycles it'll have lost upwards of 20% of its original capacity and might show other signs of wearing out like inconsistent voltages. After 2 years of use, you'll be well beyond 500 cycles. A new battery off eBay is pretty cheap, and some sellers include the needed tools.Go to ifixit.com for a tear-down guide. A hair drier can help soften up the adhesive. The fact that it turned off despite being plugged in to your computer also points to the battery being toast - the USB amperage from a computer is less than the typical wall charger.
If it's not the battery giving you woes, I don't know what it could be.
And FYI, the whole "optimizing app" thing is the OS rebuilding the cache. When you flash your GAPPs package or a zipped Titanium backup it has to build the cache for the new apps. Same as when you do the "wipe Dalvik and cache" part of standard flashing procedure to avoid conflicts. In order for apps to load quickly, Android stores a lot of the necessary data in cache, so when you clear it or have new apps, it has to rebuild the cache. On Lollipop this takes a loooooooong time because of the way ART works.

How can i be completely sure that it's the battery which needs to be replaced? The battery shows charge. When i plug in and boot up it shows enough battery power left.
Currently, without external power it does not go past the google screen on boot. When i plug in power while device is off, the battery meter shows just a little depletion from full charge. When turned on, battery level is 82 %
After all , all this hardware mess up can be the consequence of a bad cm flash ?
the whole "optimizing app" thing is the OS rebuilding the cache.

I know this. Earlier it was happening on each boot. Now it seemed to be stopped.
By any chance did you have your phone charging while flashing and booting up your ROM?

Exactly same problem is started with my Nexus 4 ... I really wonder, what is causing this. Meanwhile, have it sorted for you ? is that hardware (Battery) issue?

I too am facing kinda similar problem.
It first started on my stock Lollipop 5.1.1. I had kept it on charge and when I removed it, it got switched off. Thinking that it might be just another of the multitude of bugs in Lollipop, since I already had lots of problems with it, I decided to flash CM 12.1 Stable on it.
Unlocked bootloader, flashed TWRP recovery, created a backup (using TWRP), wiped data, cache, dalvik and started installing CM 12.1. Now comes the problem, I selected 'restart system' and it did restart and CyanogenMod logo was displayed for few minutes before the phone crashed. I switched it on again normally and the Google logo got displayed, and then again phone got off just after the Google logo. I tried flashing again by same procedure, but this time not even the Cyanogen logo was displayed. The Google logo got displayed and the went off.
Then I decided to restore the backup. Restored it but it still had the same problem at the startup Google logo.
Now I have managed to install CM 12.1, which works fine unless I don't open certain apps. When I open certain apps like Phone or Clock (those are some I have tried yet), it crashes the system.
This maybe a hardware or software problem, but pretty sure it isn't battery problem, coz it retains good charge when I switch it back on after crash.

Since you already unlocked the bootloader, and therefore already wiped everything, you could try flashing a factory image.
I also got the same problem. I thought this is battery problem, so I replaced the battery but problem still there. I thought this is problem of lollipop, never installed CM or anything. It is always running stock android. After that I even downgrade to Kitkat stock version still it is not working. One more thing I noticed is If I don't unlock the device than it will be powered on, but as soon as I unlock it and if it is not plugged in to charger it will be switched off. Any suggestion what should I do?
I have the same thing for several month now.
Always thought it is the dying battery.

Just tried flashing Lollipop 5.1.1 (LMY48I) factory image. The same problem still exists. Faced few weird problems on running the first time. Following scenarios explains it exactly...
Not On Charge: Crashes after startup Google logo
Connected to Laptop (USB Charge): Crashes a few minutess after entering "Optimizing apps" screen
On Charger (AC): Completed the install (optimizing apps and setup) without problems
Now I can access the home screen and menu without problems. But when I start any app, phone will go off. Not just apps, at times even when the recent apps menu is opened.

When you flashed the factory image did you do it via fastboot or by flashing a zip file. If you used the zip file I would suggest you do it with fastboot.

By "flashing zip" you mean using "fastboot update" command? ...If so, nope I didnt. I extracted all compressed files and then flashed each of the img's using fastboot. Flashed a total of 6 img files.

I m too facing the similar issues. Phone is getting turned off suddenly when not charging, on charging it is working fine. i have done factory reset and also done factory image reset to 5.1.0. i m still facing the same issues. I don't think so it is related to battery. if anyone have the solution then please let me know.

Try the very basic flash technique by double clicking the flash-all.bat. It's not the same as flashing the imgs one by one.
Battery is the issue. Get it changed. I also faced same problem, and visited LG service center and they changed the battery. Phone working fine now.

Ok so Battery was the problem!! Got it changed, phone working fine now. Thanx all!
Ok guys i confirm that this is a battery issue. I took it to the service center and the guy temporarily replaced battery to show me issue solved... But... there i saw another issue due to which i did not buy the battery. I saw half the touchscreen not working (including the navigation buttons ). The guy at the center told its a h/w issue and i would have to spend 7K on it so i left my phone dead for now. The Question is ... can this be a s/w issue.. or result of bad flash which can solve on reflashing ??
same problem with my nexus ,but one thing i noticed that the phone does not power off while in recovery...Any idea??
Hello all,
I have a Nexus 6P, stock, rooted, with Xposed installed. The phone is completely functional for the better part of its life time since I bought it at release -probably first or second batch- (except for random reboots once daily on average, deemed by my investigation and exhausting all options to be a hardware issue or Xposed related).
Today, out of nowhere, the phone randomly rebooted itself and surprisingly it launched the "Android is starting..." dialogue which, if I'm not mistaken, optimize apps for ART. The battery was at 19% before it randomly rebooted, so when it started that optimize apps it went down to 0 (I assume) and it turned off. The charger wasn't connected correctly so that happened. Now the phone keeps restarting itself up to before it gives me the boot up decryption phase of the Data partition and reboots again. I assumed it can't decrypt Data for some reason, so I launched TWRP recovery to try and decrypt data and take a backup copy of my Titanium Backup folder on storage... Unfortunately, TWRP reports "failed to decrypt data" even though I'm 100% positive that the pattern is correct because I'm literally inputting it almost 10-20 times a day for the past two years...
Note: there seems to be a red blinking LED in the top left corner of the the phone. I never even knew this existed.
WHAT I WILL DO
I'll reflash everything system-wise.. I'm ok with that. I'll reflash the factory images, root it, install Xposed, no problem.
WHAT I NEED HELP WITH
I need to extract some folders from my phone storage, namely the Titanium Backup folder. I know the pattern protection of the encryption.
How do I go about doing this?
UPDATE:
Help is urgently needed now indeed: The phone doesn't even turn on to bootloader mode anymore now. It was able to, just half an hour ago. Now all I see it the red blinking LED.
UPDATE2: https://support.google.com/nexus/troubleshooter/3337561?hl=en-GB#ts=3337942
I'll try in 30 minutes.
Meanwhile, please help me with my original problem; extracting data.
I was thinking, if I boot into bootloader mode, can I use adb to pull any folder? If so, will that work in my case with decryption fails or Data partition doesn't seem to mount correctly?
Relevent:
Reviewing some other threads:
TWRP: 3.0.2-2
Bootloader: UNLOCKED
I did NOT upgrade to Android 7.0 nor was I planning to, until Xposed is available.
I did NOT flash anything **new** recently. However, Installed an Xposed module yesterday which caused a bootloop. I rebooted into TWRP, uninstalled Xposed, rebooted into system (which looped once, out of the ordinary) and I uninstalled that module, back to TWRP installed Xposed, and rebooted back into system. It worked for 12 hours and then what I wrote this post for happened as stated above.
UPDATE3:
15 minutes into charging... NOT EVEN A RED BLINKING LED ANYMORE.
Last? UPDATE:
Almost 1 and a half hour into charging and there is no longer ANYTHING. Is it hard-bricked now?
How the **** is this possible? I'm very much capable of solving any sof-brick but not a hard-brick...
Thats a really crappy scenario. Im a little busy right now (not that I can get you out of this regardless) but I sort of skimmed through your post. Are you able to connect adb? If so you might be able to use "adb pull" to get that data.
On my 6p TB is located at:
/storage/emulated/0/TitaniumBackup/
Itll probably be the same location on your phone. Good Luck

I was indeed able to connect to a PC after I saw the problem (the bootloop essentially)... But I didn't at the time as I didn't have a plan of action as to how to get my data, so I turned it off. After sometime, I couldn't do anything with the phone... Not able to boot into bootloader, not recovery, the phone is essentially not turning on to anything, not even the splash screen; like a hard-brick. I'm not sure if this indeed is a hard brick as I've never seen any.. and don't currently know what to try next.
Is the LED still showing? if so, do the bootloader boot combo, and see if fastboot devices gets a response in a command prompt - or terminal if you're a linux guy.
if so, you can boot to twrp, decrypt data - try default_password -, and browse the phone's files from your computer's file browser, the phone will show up as Nexus 6P. That's my suggestion, wish you luck.

Will Fastboot show any devices if the phone didn't show bootloader screen?

My Zte axon 7 for last few days has been mostly stuck on a red led for until the battery dies then I plug it in and it boots normal and functions good for 20 mins until it freezes with a red led and I have to do it all over again. I was in TWRP running linage os and it still froze in TWRP which I was suprised. Has anyone else had this issue because I'm not finding much on the internet for it.

yes,me.Also on 10% phone shut down,then i try to turn it on and it says i need to charge my battery,i ignore it.Then i try to boot in TWRP and that works.
Also vendor partition issues,other time on boot its gone,other time in reboot its back
calibration issues also here that i noticed,what more users have but not aware about
Have you found a work around for this to prevent it from happening or to make it work longer. I do not know what causes it. I hesitate to format cause I got some pictures. But I will if it comes to it.

Try to flash latest official twrp trough fastboot or edl.If it worked boot in twrp and try to backup your photos to PC/laptop.
Then I advice you start over.Also delete the vendor partitions.
Please report back here when the twrp flash and backup to pc succeeded

I will try doing this, unfortantly luck isn't on my side for this. In short I did this process 1 year ago forgetting how to do it, as well as I am now on windows 8.1 (previous Wind 7) and the drivers are very hard to get working as when the phone previously worked it would be hard to get it to detect the phpne using Usb 2.0. Just send me a tut on how to flash Lastest version of TWRP and ill do it. Also how do I clear the Vendor partions? I mainly had the intention to set this phpne up once and never come back to all this so thats why I have nothing ready for this.
Also what if it freezes while i'm usimg TWRP? I had that happen to me before

u mean stock rom? what i did was ersing everything,also the vendor partition.I rebooted sometimes in twrp to make sure everything is gone and all partitions are on default size.And im glad i did this because the vendor partition showed up again after some reboot in twrp.
Then i installed everything for los14.1 (bootstack and modem) and flashed nuclearom (all default).Ive run some cycles on that and my problems were all solved.Battery calibration was also normal and good
Same issue, more details, with year old B32 system
Just want to add, having same issue. When phone is unplugged, battery starts draining quickly, in fifteen minutes reaching 70%. IF it reaches that far. Usually, battery just jumps from any % to 0! and shuts off, even from 100% charge sometimes, and can't restart phone until I plug it in. When plugged in, it shows wherever it shut down, for example if it shut down at 76% on charging it shows 76%.
Looking at posts above, I wiped everything, including data and media, did a complete reflash to B32 stock image by DrakenFX that I did literally a year ago. STILL same issue remains, battery starts discharging very quickly, then from 95% skips to 0! and shuts off.
Hope this is helpful to anyone dealing with this issue.

that must be your battery. Install Ampere, and disconnect the phone while it is at 100%. See how much voltage it reports. If it says it's at ~95% and has less than 4.3V then it's definitely just a very bad battery with high internal resistance, this causes it to drop voltage easily once a load is applied, and the phone detects the low voltage and shuts off to prevent bad stuff from happening
Does the phone look like it's warped somewhere? Your battery might be bloating
