Ok,so:
I'm currently running a stock rooted phone, no Custom ROMs.
2 days ago, when I tried to charge my phone during the night, it just wouldn't charge. But yesterday when I woke up and tried again it magically started working.
Today, when I tried charging the phone again, it's working - but for some reason the notification light sometimes randomly starts flashing red and green for a while then goes back to solid red. Anyone else have these problems?

blinking red and green means your battery is overheated or temp goes 48c+ while charging, try to cool it down or better do a factory reset, you might have some apps that doing something while on idle
Thanks for the quick reply.
Must have been that game I was playing.. Do you think the case contributes to overheating?

I left my phone on the charger all night and when I woke up it was fully charged, but really.. really, hot. I noticed I had one notification which was a text and I know the phone stopped charging, and that shouldn't be the issue. After unplugged it, reset it, and answered the text It cooled down. I had a text just a couple of minutes ago and waited a while to answer it and noticed my phone was getting slightly warmer. Since I responded Its now at a regular temperature. Is it possible my phones overheating from pending notifications? I know that question sounds dumb but this is really bugging me out. Anyone have any advice?
I running ERA Legendary Rom with GetuSum's EI22 ICS theme 2.1 if anyone wanted to know.
Did you leave any apps on plus when you charge your phone Being "ON" it heats up more than if Off

I usually power it off.. because it also charges faster. I had no apps running and even turned off the data connection. I DID however try to install the gta San Andreas app from an "undisclosed" website.. (ehmm 4shart) which was a bad idea since of course it didn't work.. I really hope im not gonna have to end up re-installing this rom and theme, since i just installed it 3 days ago.
what are a couple things that would cause over heating? maybe that can help out.. thanks
If your phone is in use while on the charger... the display being really high the normal things.... that cause overheating like leaveing it clocked at 1500mhz

True, I think my display was on, and it usually is pretty bright. I just charged it again this time while powered off and there was no overheating (woohoo!) I've had this epic for about a year and a half now so I take care of it likes it's child haha...
I appreciate the advice :thumbup:
I noticed my phone got hot when charging (phone is on when I charge) with the EI22 ROMs I used.
I recently installed the stock EL30, rooted it, and installed the Shadow kernel for EL30. Now it always stays cool. Coincidence? Maybe, but I'm happy it's always cool now.
there's possibily charging overnight will make your battery broke inside (see explanation for li ion battery on google)so it easily become overheated when used normally
Yesterday night I was watching some YouTube videos on my One X over Wifi until I got the low battery alert. The phone was hot at the back, near the camera area. I put the phone to charge and went to sleep. I noticed that the LED was blinking alternate green and orange, which according to other threads is an overheat indicator.
I left it like that. Now I wake up in the middle of the night, try to wake up the phone to see time. The One X will not power on and will not charge anymore. Taking it to the shop in the morning.

Hey man, I can tell you that I had something similar to that except the thing with LED. My battery was dead and I had to charge it... It was on usb and when I was trying power on the htc it wasn't reacting. I had to plug it on the power to make it work... Which is actually not normal that the usb wasn't enough...

Had some similar problem too. Overheating charging through wall.
Let it charge for a while in usb port and try to reboot again.
Same thing happened to me. Was playing a game until battery died. I held the power button down for a 30 seconds and it came back to life.

Blinking green and red means the phones too hot and as a safety thing will not charge, let the phone cool before you charge it
Sent from my HTC One X using xda premium
Thank you for your replies guys. I know that blinking green and orange means the phone is too hot. I let it cool for couple of hours and then tried charging. It will not charge. I tried connecting to power and to usb, left it for a while.. no activity.
I also tried other methods above, like holding power on for a longer time etc. The phone's still dead. Not powering on, not charging..
Return to the seller because is a hardware fault. Or call to htc.

I took the phone back to MediaMarkt and they gave me a new phone
My previous phone had yellow tint at the bottom, had it for 3 weeks. This new one does not seem to have any issues so far. It's made in China as opposed to earlier which was from Taiwan.

mediamarkt? i have to try and get htc to take it back, its stuck in apx.
As my HOX was charging, via a USB cable to plug, the screen started flickering slightly and the phone shut itself down. The phone was 10% charged. Now when I try to charge it the LED flashes red and green and doesn't seem to charge. I've read that this could be due to overheating so I left my phone untouched for a couple of hours but it's still flashing red and green/green. Something feels seriously wrong.
Is there something I can do to fix this?
When the problem started the phone was quite warm but nowhere near as hot as it has been, and I wasn't using it that much.
The only thing different today was that I was using a plug that I don't normally use, the cable I have used before.
Any ideas?
How much does a battery replacement cost?
Thanks
Chris

Don't you have the charger and cable it came with? Try another charger that can supply at least 1 amp and try a different cable.
The only time I've had this is when it's overheated.

Charged to 28% but then shut down after light usage
Ok I've managed to get it charging up to 28%. Then I stopped charging it and started using it to do some light Internet browsing, but after about 15 minutes it suddenly shut itself down even though it wasn't hot and had plenty of battery. What's going on?
You might have damaged the battery using a non standard plug. It might be more than the phone can handle

I always had the impression that the USB plugs were all standardised and acted the same?
Can charge it to 60% but turns off after heavy usage
OK I've managed to get this battery to charge up to 60%. It won't go any higher than that. I was using today quite heavily for about 30 minutes and it got quite hot and turned itself off.
Will replacing the battery sort this problem out or is there something else wrong?
Thanks
Chris
I'd be surprised if it was the battery, I'd try a factory reset, anb if that doesn't work, an RUU.
So I'm fairly new to the forums and have been looking through to see what kind of issues this phone has. I knew it got a little warm, but this morning it was too hot to hold up to my cheek. I left it charging overnight, like I always do, and it didn't even charge! When i put the charger back in after it cooled, it would not charge. I had to keep holding down the power button in order for it to charge. When I tried to boot my phone, all it did was show the LG logo (SOMETIMES it showed the boot animation), then it would just turn off. It took me a few hours to be able to finally boot my phone. I had to hold down the power button down for 5 min so it could charge, then i booted into TWRP and pushed boot system. Am I the only one who has had this problem? I am currently running Imperium v 1.0.0.

did you happen to leave it in recovery?
The same happened to me the other day I left it in the charger when I came back to it it was just very hot it would not start often times the animation for a charging battery with show up then I just kind of the left it alone I was able to get into recovery and then turned it off a few hours later it turned back on. When restarted it show that it only had about 5 or 6 percent battery power I charge it on a separate charger and it has been fine don't really know what happened I'm just rooted and unlocked
And my apologies for the lack of punctuation I'm too lazy to type all this done by voice pretty damn accurate

downloading and reflashing stock deodex to verify. if I can duplicate the high temps then we may have a bigger problem.
UPDATE
Stock deodex, running CFBench @1.13GHz. I'm up in the mid 60's with spikes as high as 78c and no downclock. Not good folks. This is not an Imperium Initiative issue. This is an LG issue.
i knew it

I knew I wasn't the only one, and I was sure that it was not the awesome ROM that I am using. I guess this otter box doesn't help either. It's just weird that it happened while the phone was being charged. I would understand if I was gaming on it for hours and charging. like I used too when I was hooked on ck zombies2 lol.
Mine just overheated out of nowhere. I was doing nothing and it had no apps running... I open one and now it's hot. This is strange :/

My LG Optimus G also overheats and feels very hot to the touch sometimes and sometimes it just randomly reboots when it gets hot, I'm running stock ZV9 that I upgraded to OTA from ZV8.
No problems with mine yet. I'm running lifeless v9 right now with stock kernel. Are you guys using the charger that came with the phone? I noticed the power specs are different than some of the other chargers I have

Mine does it off charger. Like playing games mostly. And when I use data with a bad connection.

I've been running Lifeless v9 for a while with stock kernel without any problems either. I played the hell out of Anomaly Warzone Earth HD and although it would get pretty warm, it never overheated. The only time my phone ever gets hotter than playing that game is when running GPS in the car while charging without the backplate breathing (ie, sitting face up with the back on the seat).
I just experienced the same issue. I'm running Lifeless v11 with joker's stockish v2 kernel.
I charge my phone every night via AC and have not used my phone much at all today. Checked my gmail, got on facebook, and sent 1 text. I left it on my desk while I went out to lunch and I could not believe it got as hot as it did. There was nothing running yet my phone had less than 30% battery (it's been less than 5 hours since I removed it from the charger) and must've been at least 105F degrees.
Hello Everyone,
I am a noob on XDA, Please correct me if i have posted in the wrong forum. I bought a new nexus 7 16gb, for some reason when the battery is around 25-30% the tablet turns off itself. Its not shutdown its like pulling the battery of a phone thats on. The only way to start it is by connecting the charger.
Has anyone else experienced this issue?
I am on the stock rom NOT rooted
Thanks

Have you charged the device to 100% yet? I would do that, leave it charging for an hour after it shows 100% then use it till it dies. Rinse and repeat.

Yes I have charged it 100% multiple times, The only difference is i use a sammy charger that outputs 0.7 amps once in a while. I dont suspect the charging thing to do this.
Are you getting normal use out of a charge? How much screen time in one charge?

Like Highfigh suggested check how long you can run on a full charge. If you get some good hours in then maybe the battery % is not reporting back properly. A reset/restore could possible resolve that issue.
I believe I am getting pretty good charge. I will try once again, I was thinking this might be something with stock rom and hence I posted it online. Thanks every one for the help

exactly the same story here. in my case it's not so easy to turn it on. it would seem like the device is completely discharged, even if it just showed some 40 % battery left. i have to wait several hours to even try to bring it back to recovery mode. very long press does nothing. it happened couple of times already. very annoying with such seemingly superb tablet. i'm not living in the us of a, so no quick replacement for me
That's bad I can turn on mine in a few minutes. Again mine happens very rarely. I also get an excellent battery life. How long does yours go on a charge.
I would also like to know if there is any kind of Logs that we can look at. It's getting irritating, did you try rooting your device to see if that might fix the problem.

I got the same problem recently, I think it was after the last update on the firmware. Everytime the battery reach around 35% it just went off.
