Running Slim Bean for about a week. Phone just shuts off tonight. Leave it plugged in for about an hour and all I get is a little vibration and battery icon when I press the power button. I've only had the phone for three weeks. I'm going to try and exchange the battery tomorrow but will my phone being rooted be an issue since I can't even boot up to unroot?
I would flash back to stock and verify is actually the battery, just do a nandroid before.
Have you tried booting to recovery, or dl mode

If you're using a USB charger (plugged into your laptop or something), try using a wall charger or possibly a car charger.
Connected to my OEM wall charger. The device won't turn on at all, I'm guessing the battery draine while I was at work.
Have you tried taking out the battery and putting it back in?

Yes. I think its a bad battery but Im at least trying to get it to boot up so I can unroot. Nothing on the screen comes up when I plug it in. If I hold the power button while its plugged in, an empty battery icon will pop up, the phone will vibrate, and the screen will go blank again.
If it's been on your charger for a while, pull the battery out for a full minute. Replace and try to boot.
Did you ever figure this one out? I have ran Slim Bean for a few days and I can't charge my phone now. It completely drained and now it displays the grey battery icon with the spinning "thinking" circle for about half a second and then goes black. I can only reproduce this after taking out the battery for 10 seconds, placing it back in, then plugging it into the OEM wall charger. ATT SGS 3, owned since release.
same here

Screen went black.
Pulled battery.
Battery In.
Plugged into PC.
I get OMAP4440 in Device Manager for 0.8 seconds then instant dead phone.
OMAP4440 comes back half a second later then back to dead phone.
No Fastboot, No LCD, No Nothing.
DEAD Battery, I will keep it plugged in overnight, the USB may not be giving it enough voltage for the boot.
Any help greatly appreciated. There is not enough time to flash anything while the phone is actually "on" for the 0.8 seconds.
What caused the screen to go black? Did you flash something right before?
I mean this is no regular boot up, you obviously attempted something right before boot up!

why not charge in the wall in the mean time? (just curious)
See if you can get a hold of one of these: http://www.amazon.com/SainSmart-Don...73JQ/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1326592299&sr=8-1
When you plug it in, it boots the phone into ODIN mode.
But yeah, firstly, try charging the phone up first.

I was doing a battery calibration, resulting in many battery pulls.

I am keeping it plugged in overnight to charge. Hoping for the best.
first, be sure to remember to unplug the cable when you are doing your battery pulls (dunno if you know, so there ya go)
second, http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/
i have the same problem the phone is total low battery and not charghing not usb not at wall i don't know but i think the reason is battery calibration because i use as far as user in question
i had the phone running this morning with over 50% charge. i put it on charge to get it to the max before getting to work.. then the phone hanged and switched off..since it has happened before when the phone overheats, i thought it will reboot but since then its not detecting the charger. When i start charging the phones battery area heats up but the charging led is not seen. the dealer told me to charge it for an hour and try but that also didnt work..
any opinions or past experiences like this??
Can you boot into HBOOT? Power plus volume down.
Not sure if its the same thing but over the last 2 nights mine has done something similar and it is annoying the hell out of me!
On the first night as usual i switch my phone off (with about 10% battery left) and plug it in to the charger, wait for the charging light to come on, and go to bed. In the morning no light on and phone won't switch on? After a while of unplugging and plugging back in, pressing random buttons and head scratching the red light comes back on and i can start it up but the battery is completely flat and have to charge it up again?
Same thing happened again last night but this time i had about 50% battery??? Haven't looked into it properly yet as i thought it was a fluke but obviously its not! I'm running stock untouched phone so trying other roms etc isn't an option atm.
Will let you know if i find anything ;-)

Ok so i have had a few days of no problems but just woke up to another completely flat phone? It had 45% battery when i put it on charge and the charge light came on. When i woke up it had no light on and completely flat battery, it wouldn't switch on !!? Unplug the charger and plug it back in and then after a minute the charge light comes on and you can turn it on?? This is very annoying as last time it happened was at a weekend but i have to go to work now without a phone as I have no way to charge it :-(
This is a real pain as it doesn't always happen and when it does I'm asleep so i don't know till its too late?

So, I woke up this morning and I went to go check some messages on my phone, but when I checked, the phone wouldn't turn on. I charged it like I usually did and when I got to it, the blue led light was flashing. Not brightly, but just like it would try to turn on, but it can't so the light slowly fades away. I tried to hold the power + volume buttons (both up and down) but it still wouldn't do anything. Any help before I take it into sprint?

can you charge the battery? is the battery loose? I would take it to sprint and let them check it out.
Yeah. I think I might just take it back to sprint. But it won't charge at all I think.
Pull the battery and leave it out for a few minutes then try again.

I've done that and I actually start seeing the empty battery logo. But It's only for a second. I think there's a problem with the battery or the charger thing

Okay, My phone actually started up now. The battery is not charging though
Just kidding. It's charging. Anyone know if I should be worried about anything?
Are you using an after market charger?

Get a brand new quality USB cable. A HUGE amount of issues can be resolved by just doint this, believe me.
I was using the charger cable it came with but connected to my computer
well your computer USB port can only push 500mA out max. sounds like its undercharging your phone. the stock charger pushes 1000mA or 1A.
Guys im having an issue with my week old s3...my battery power hit 0 percent and phone turned off and now when i plug it in it wont turn on. It will give me the little battery icon for less than a second before shutting off. I am getting no response from the phone and dont know what to do. I tried volume+ up and volume +down to no avail. Im pretty irritated at this point and need some insight. Have tried diffrent chargers and they all give me battery icon before shutting of.
What room are you on?
Have you tried just letting it charge and sit there
When my s3 but zero I plugged it in
Didn't lead power till like 5 min afterwards and it worked fine

Having the exact same problem on my phone as well running FreeGS3 v3.0 and Ktoonz kernel.
This is how I fixed mine.
Plug it in and get it to show the empty battery with a circle in it. Once you see that plug it in and leave it alone for a while at least five minutes, yes the battery sign should only stay for a second. It should just go black screen no charging light.*After five minutes or so unplug it, pull the battery, and put it back in leave the phone unplugged and hold the power button a while. Some times they act weird when they dieThis is how I fixed mine.

When you plug it in, and see the icon, let it go for on charge for about 10s, unplug the usb, then hold the power button and see if it turns on then.
Mine will be in my pocket and won't respond like it is off. I have to hold the power button for 10seconds and it will come back on This is only happening shortly after a full charge. FreeGS3 Rom.
So is this a rom issue?

I made a thread because I was having the exact same problem. Click on the link I attached in my first post. It's from the T-Mobile GS3 because they are having the same issue. The last post said flashing back to stock fixed the problem.
Just ran into this issue yesterday. I threw the battery into a standalone Anker charger for a while to get some juice back, and the phone powered up and charged fine from there.
I'm also on FreeGS3/ktoonsez.

Borrow a friends battery and switch roms

Also had this issue with ktoonz's kernel and freegs3. Went back to stock kernel and it's fine. I ended up using a friend's phone to get battery to charge.
So here's the story.
It was last night. It was dark, and I proceeded to charge my phone. I didn't see where I was plugging in the adapter into the wall, so instead of having both adapters in the correct sockets, I had the right prong of the adapter into the left hole of the power bar socket, and the left prong of the adapter into nothing.
Of course, being dark, I didn't see, but it went in so I thought I plugged it in properly.
So my phone is "charging", and I proceeded to flash a new ROM (Android Overdrive). My battery at that time was at around 30%. So I went to recovery, did the regular full factory reset, and flashed it, and when it rebooted, it had the 4-coloured X boot animation playing, when I heard a funny, continuous, low electronic humming sound eminating from my phone and the screen started getting funky and turned a shade of purple. I quickly unplugged the usb, and proceeded to restart the phone.
Phone freezes at boot animation.
I went into bootloader, and successfully navigated to recovery. I proceeded to do a full wipe, and reflash the old rom.
It flashed successfully but I had the same problem of getting stuck on the bootanimation.
Now the phone won't turn on when I press the power button. When I plug it into the wall it shows the charging icon thing, then it turns off, then it turns back on, and repeats like that forever.
When I press the power button when it's plugged in the phone gets stuck at the charging battery screen (The screen freezes).
Also, when I plug my phone into my computer, my computer (windows 7) makes a disconnect sound, followed by three short beeps in quick succession that are at the same pitch as the last note of the two-note disconnect melody. It does this on repeat forever.
PS: I just managed to put the phone into bootloader mode and I am leaving it plugged in. I am going to see if it is still responsive after 30 minutes of just sitting there on the homepage of bootloader mode.
PPS: It was stable after 30 mins; I could still press up and down and select whatever i want. BUT as soon as I unplugged the USB, the device shut off. Is it the battery problem?
Does anyone know yet what's wrong with my phone?
A friend of mine had a similar problem... Never solved it, keep us updated mate...
Sounds like a battery problem. You might wanna get a replacement battery if you can. Word of advice. Never ever flash anything if your phone isn't fully charged or at a good battery percentage. Personal experience
