I have a weird problem with my dhd. He is rooted with leedroid. The problem is when im taking pic when my battery is around 55% and down, with FLASH, the phone shuts down, the only options to power him up again is by pulling out the battery or by connecting the phone to the charger. Its not happening even with 20% when i take videos with flash or you the flash light. Only this [email protected] pics with flash shut my phone down...
Any help guys?
Thanks
Edit:
Uploaded a video, SORRY for the background noise, just mute it...

Go to Mounts and Storage and wipe /system in addition to data wipe at the main menu and reflash the ROM. If it happens again, it's a hardware issue.

Has anyone else noticed that when charging from an outlet, the phone lockscreen becomes less responsive and harder to unlock, or is this just a problem with my phone?
I have had this issue and returned my phone that was ha in that issue for a new one? I would say it's potentially fixable via flashing a custom tom.

That happened to me after a couple ROM switches. What I did was go into CWM and actually go to mounts and storage and format data, system, cache, emms (sd card).
Then I did the standard wipe user settings, cache... installed new rom, wiped dalvik cache and fixed permissions.
After that it was completely reset in every possible way and things worked fine.

If you're not using the original charger or a non-grounded connection you run the chance of malfunction while plugged in. There was a similar issue on the Sensation.......
Mine acts the same and is also slow when plugged into charge. I assumed it was a Samsung underclock feature to make it charge quicker.
Hi,
I went to reset my GN last night and then it started going in a boot cycle. It displays the Google logo and then keeps doing this in a continuous cycle without reaching the flashing colours.
I haven't rooted my phone and it's running stock 4.0.2 via OTA update.
I am yet to factory reset and I will be doing this soon, however my main concern at the moment is that I have photos/videos from my holiday on my phone which I really want to keep hold of.
Is there any way I can get my GN to go into USB Storage mode without it actually being on? Preferably without rooting or flashing roms.
Any help will be of great assistance!
Think you might be out of luck. Try pulling the battery and trying to reboot again

That was the first thing I tried. I even left my battery out over night. At times like this I wish the GN had an SD slot.
Anyone else?
How are you going to factory reset if it doesn't turn on and you aren't rooted? I know if you factory reset in CWM it won't remove your virtual SD

Good point... forgot coming from a rooted phone lol. I can still access other modes by using the volume rocker and power button.
Considering sending it back. Not sure if I want to root it and mess around with it atm. I know you can bring it back to stock but I'd rather not risk it. Just my luck.

Actually there is one way. Get into recovery with the android with the red exclamation mark. Press and hold the power button first and then press up on the volume rocker.

For next time you can use Google+ to automatically store any pic you take in a private folder online using instant upload.

Yeah I've turned that on now. Learnt my lesson well and truely haha.
As described at the title.
The Phone ran out of battery and when I plugged back the charger and turned it on... it stays in the AOKP *swagger activated* logo running there forever without booting.
Please help, I hope I don't have to wipe anything because I don't have a late backup
Turn the phone off by pulling out battery. Plug in charger, and leave it for an hour or so. You should be good.
Yeah, can you get into Recovery? If so, just try wiping cache & dalvik. Also make sure to charge your battery at least an hour as stated.
My phone gets goofy when it completely drains.
I tried and still the same
I'll try to backup from recovery menu, then wipe and reinstall?

If you took the time to create a nandroid you could just restore. If not, and wiping cache doesn't help, try a dirty install of your current ROM. Last resort is full wipe and reinstall.
A 100% battery discharge won't kill phone OS. Turn off the phone, kill your instinct to check it, keep it on charger for a couple hours, until it says battery full. And only then turn it back on.
What if the battery didn't died actually and it just shut down and now it's having problems to run back normally?
Because I'm pretty sure I saw the battery low but not over kill low, then the phone shut down and didn't wanted to power back on.
Anyways I'm leaving it charging... now.
Ok in worse case scenario, can I do a back up from recovery and then wipe it all and reinstall AOKP and run the backup recovery and get back to exactly how it was before? right?!
Don't worry too much. Normally batteries don't deep discharge. For some reason, looks like yours did. I let mine shut down by itself once in a while. Its perfectly alright... At the most you might need a new battery.
But like you said, if its a system problem, and you are able to get into recovery, copy another ROM zip on your external SD, boot into recovery n flash it.
Did you apply any CPU settings like UV or OC?

Nope, the phone havent had any other software, just the rooting process and AOKP and the recovery files.
Ok so It's safe to back up and restore after wiping everything from it right?
Well it sucks that I had no other choice but to start all over because nothing else wanted to work...

Sorry it had to come down to that.
don't look at is as a pain but a fresh start with the device. Explore some new roms. Have fun
Sorry to hear that. Before you wipe, try to install the same ROM again without wiping anything (as a dirty install) and see if that helps.

Well its alright.
What exactly went wrong then?
Many thanks though

Is the issue resolved yet? Might be a kernel crash or some rogue app.

I had to start from scratch.
I't ok not much of a loss... but I did loose important notes I had on the notepad diary.
The only other problem im having is that my contacts tends to go away, like if it's bugged.
I import them with GO CONTACTS and then today for example I go to my contacts and it's all blank.
What it's happening with this phone?

Search the q & a forum for a missing contacts/contacts disappeared thread. It was up a week or so ago. Not sure if it was resolved but it's worth finding and reading over. I only use Gmail to backup/restore contacts
I have seen at times that if the system runs the battery dead that it will corrupt Some files making the phone get stuck in a boot loop with a need to reflash.
As for your contacts try using a different backup program. Like super backup.
Try opening the XML file (exported contacts file) in excel. You should be able to view so your contacts there and make sure its all in place.

Hi everyone,
My S3 would all of a sudden just turn off and I wouldn't be able to turn it back on. I've tried taking the battery out and putting it back in. The phone would turn on by itself, but once it flashes the S3 logo, it would go black and the power button would become unresponsive. Sometimes it would keep vibrating. The only way I was able to keep it on long enough to re-flash/do a hard reset was if I took the battery out and left it overnight. But when I managed to re-flash/hard reset, the problem would come up again after a few hours. I was wondering what might be the cause of this. The first time it happened I was just streaming music, the second time it was just charging. I just got it back from warranty because of a loose power button and this problem was never there before. I was wondering what might be the cause of the problem and how I can go about remedying it. Thanks!
Sounds like the battery is failing. To be sure though, you said you can get it up and running for a few hours, right? That should be enough, but first make a nandroid backup. Then recharge, then do a full wipe and odin flash the stock firmware. (Only do this if you are certain it won't die during the flash.)
Are you on a stock rom now? If so and you're not sure enough to use odin, factory reset, including internal sd, and see if it continues.
If it does go to a Tmobile store and see if they'll let you test with a known good battery.

I did a full wipe and odin flashed it with stock firmware after the first time it happened. I thought I was in the clear, but it happened again couple hours later. I've tried it with my spare battery but it does the same thing, it would turn on by itself, flash the S3 logo, then the screen would go black.
I'd take it to T-Mobile, let them see it happen do their thing, and ask them to note it on your account if they tell you to call support.

For some reason, my wife's T989 loses its data after a hard reset/battery pull. Is this a known issue? The phone rebooted on its own and got stuck on the reboot screen so we pulled the battery and now the phone acts like it is a new flash/factory reset because it is asking if we have a Google account already (to set up the phone/email).
I have done alot and seen a lot done to a Galaxy S T989. I have never heard of a phone factory resetting after pulling battery. Is is phone rooted or is it still stock? If it has a custom rom / kernel, what's the name of it?

It's a modified stock ROM, I'll have to check later. But it has happened before on other ROMs. It is almost as if the data is lost when power is lost (as if everything was stored in RAM). I have no idea, I have never seen it happen before but I saw it yesterday. Phone went into its own reboot, stuck at the 100% bar, we pulled the battery and reinserted it then the phone lost all its data.
