Please give me advice. - Samsung Galaxy Nexus

I am in trouble about battery.
Repeating "Charging" and "Discharging" without plug-in.
It is the main reason why it is so fast to be out of battery.
My battery sensor is something wrong.
Please tell me how to make my galaxy nexus recognize ALWAYS discharging.
Even if it is pug-in, it is ok that it recognizes "discharging".
help me.

Factory reset or get a new phone

If you are rooted, I would consider trying to rest your battery stats. There are several apps for this, and you can also do it in cwm

You need a new USB-board. Mine was not repairable, I had got some water in my usb-port. Not covered by warranty off course. A repair would cost me 150-200 Euro.
So I bought a new board online and exchanged it myself. Cost: 35 Euro. But you could most likely find it cheaper. Took me 15 minutes to fix.

Same thing happened to me. No water damage, no dirt, no filth, never been dropped. I take exceptional care of my electronics, I'm pretty ocd actually. I had to send it to Samsung for warranty because I didnt know the cause. And to answer your question, yes that's why your battery is draining.

I never know that so many people are in same trouble.
Then now I do is Factory Reset.
I think it was caused by water.

Motorola Rapid Charger Problem

I got a good deal on the Motorola rapid charger on ebay, shipped for $6. It charges fine and everything is good performance-wise, but there seems to be a problem with the micro-usb fitment with my TB. When I'm unplugging the phone from the charger it seems like it's stuck in there pretty good. Rather than just pulling on it and risking damage to my phone I just tried wiggling it out. That seemed to work and after about only the 5th use the usb end of the charger came apart and part of it was actually still stuck in the phone. Well of course I almost **** my pants because that's obviously not a good thing. I did get it out of the TB with no damage done to it, but now I'm confused as to why it's so much trouble to remove the charger from the micro-usb port. I see that it has 2 little hooks on the end and I don't see any release to push in as I'm unplugging, so what am I doing wrong? I read all the rave reviews on here and Amazon both about how well the charger works, specifically for the TB. The weird part is that I don't see anyone mention having this problem, can someone help me out here? I'll attach a pic of the charger just so we're on the same page here.

Yeah I don't know what the deal is. I tried it in my Nook Color when I still had it and there was no problem at all. So that would make me think it was the TB somehow, BUT... any other micro-usb I have ever tried in the TB has ever done this. I guess I just got a defective charger, I think I'm gonna try Amazon this time and just get another. Who knows where the ebay one came from. But the weird part is the hooks on the micro-usb end, I swear I think those are not releasing like they should or something.

Creaking on my Gnex

hi guys I wanna shared this problem with all because maybe someone has an idea to solve.
I have problem when I press on the green areas of the image, I have a little Creaking, but it feels when I press a little hard, but still bothers me because it's a $700 phone, I bought my phone on ebay to a Chinese seller, so I think I'll have to find a solution for myself and I would like to know if anyone can give me an idea to solve this.
Thanks.

Nothing in either sopt for me. I have a minuscule amount creaking up at the very top of the battery door. Just have to push the battery over up a little bit and it goes away.
No creaking for me in those spots or anywhere else.
Ah, I have that creaking...but I have to push very hard. Bought mine via Expansys. Doesn't bother me too much. OP, how much pressure do you have to apply to make it creak?
Yea I definitely have the creaking when I press down around and below the camera. It's annoying b/c that's usually where I rest my finger when I'm on the phone. Is it worth trying to get the device replaced?
It always is and always will be user preference. Some people have lower thresholds for the little annoying things. Getting it replaced is solely up to you. For me, it's not a big enough issue.
No issue here. Sorry.

Will Verizon Warranty My Nexus?

About a week ago I started having the same issue as the person who started this thread:
http://rootzwiki.com/topic/25020-screen-pixelated/
Now my question is, I have a ding in the casing of my phone that happened long before the screen issues. Would Verizon warranty my phone even with the ding in it? Seeing how the screen problems aren't related to the ding? And if they were to, would they charge me full retail for the replacement phone once they get my old one and see the ding?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
Edit: Here's a picture of the ding in case anyone asks.
It looks worse in the picture than it really is.

Bad thread URL, bro. But for them to deny warranty work, they have to prove that the ding is related, so I would say you are good, as long as you arent taking it to them for the ding.

Thanks for the catch.
That's a little bigger than a "ding"...
As adrynalyne said, unless they think the screen issues are related to the case damage, you should be good. Kinda depends on the CS rep you get.

***charging issue n7100 | experience#2 [resolved]

Hi Guys,
Got a problem here. This will be my 2nd Note2 after sending it back to Samsung couple of months ago. It was charging this morning and tonight after a long day of work, I decided to play some game on it. Noticed that the battery is on 15% I decided to charge it. After 30mins I checked the status of the battery and to my amaze it was not charging! I tried 3 different cables, 2 different chargers, and none of them works. Tried my cables and chargers to a different phones and it does work. I connected my note 2 to my laptop, and it does not recognized it. Tried to charge it while it is turned off, I can see a battery icon, but it does not show the charging battery icon. It will disappear in a few seconds. Please see image below:

It's a rooted phone. Tried to clean the charging port. I even opened it without damaging the warranty sticker, and I can definitely say that there's no moist inside. But just to be sure, I blow it using a hair dryer with the temp off. But with no luck. I used to experienced this a few weeks ago where went back charging after a few minutes. But this time it's worst, it's been an hour and a half and still it is not charging. I can't do a full wipe yet since the battery got 9% left on it.
I know that if it will really not charge, to resolve it..it's either I send it back again to Samsung, replace the board myself (hope it works), or buy an external battery charger. Unless there's more that I can do to fix it.

I did but to my amazed after leaving it alone the whole night, It went back charging again. Yes I am glad that it's working again but I am worried it might happen again sooner or later. I have read some threads with the same issue and with the same outcome, I really want to know what's behind this.
So if its under warranty unroot and monitor

Phone can not be charging when off
Hello all,
The problem is i can not charged my phone when the phone is switched off. When i inserted the power cable it will automatically switch on the phone then it will charging normally. I am on Phoenix ROM V18.8. Your kind feedback is much appreciated. Thanks.

Apparent Hard Brick - Any Hope?

Hey all, Search is not working for me, and I am in need of some help. Been using this Epic Touch for 2 years, but running custom ROMS for over a year.
I installed CM 10.1 official on my phone in September, and have had no issues since... Until this week.
I had had occasional reboots, but had one today, where the reboot then froze on the Samsung GSII logo. From what I know now (after googling), this is a soft brick. Not sure if i did something wrong by doing this, but just thinking it was a random reboot and brief issue, I rebooted again by holding power key...
This time, only the Blue LED comes on (steady), and the screen is completely black.
Again, I wasn't doing ANYTHING at the time this happened. Was not installing a ROM, was just charging phone when it went into the random reboot.
Is there anything I can do? I have insurance, but just ordered a LG G2 upgrade, so am only weeks away from a new phone. Don't want to pay the deductible for a phone i'll only have 2 weeks.
Thanks so much, guys.
Hmm, on the TEP site to even process a claim, only options are Water Damage, Physical Damage, Lost, Stolen.
So I guess I may have another option due to software failure? I'll head into a Sprint store and see what I can do.
So you have tried pulling the battery and going into recovery or download mode and flashing a new ROM?

Couldn't get to recovery. Just black screen. Seemed to be a complete brick, probably emmc.
I took it to a sprint store and they replaced it, free of charge, saying the board was completely gone.

Unfortunately they do happen. Nothing can be done about it with this phone, they're already out of production.

Yeah, they actually had an E4GT in the store to give me, so i barely waited 30 minutes.
I'm just gonna leave it stock for now, until I get my G2.
Just very weird that I hadn't flashed anything in weeks (almost 2 months), and it crapped out.
