G2 shuts off when opening apps / battery issue? - G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My G2 shuts off whenever i try to play bike race or temple run. And when it boots.back up thé battery goes from 80 to 10. Just like that. I've tried fully charging and then wiping battery stats. I've tried superwipe. Everything. I'm in the US so I'm pretty sure mine is the g2 but how could I check if its a dz or not? I switched to the.dz hboot to flash trickdroid and it worked so idk.what my device is anymore. Anyways can anybody help me with my shutting off / battery problem? Should I reroot?

This looks like a broken battery. My firt try would be replacing the battery.

My DZ did the same thing !!
> check this ... open camera .... shld work fine ... click a photo ,,,, Restart !!
> Connect a charger > repeat the above step ....
The 2 steps will give u ur answer !!
Luckily i had my DZ in warranty (had to unroot) , so got a free replacement battery !!

Well my camera app works fine. When its fully charged i can take a few pics. I noticed that when the charger is connected the device doesn't shut off or restart so I'm assuming its a battery issue. Can anyone confirm? If it was a hardware issue would it still be stable when charger is plugged in?

I just gave u the answer above!!
If in charging mode it does not shut down, then its your battery at fault!!
Get the gold oem battery ...lasts longer + is reeeaaalllyy cheeaapp!!

battery issue

hi guys,
i just checked out my ARTE160 battery. when i checked out the output voltage, i found that its 3.95~4.2 v when full charged. i jus checked this out with a multi meter. the battery is designed for 3.7v only, so does this mean there is a prob???
thx guys
I'm not a pro, but I think this means that everything is alright with the battery. I would rather worry if the voltage was below 3,7 V - that would definitely mean a problem.
well i find wat u say is logical but still im having some small prob in my phone.....
it keeps working well and suddenly the phone service alone wont work and gets hanged (means no calls and sms) after couple of mins mobile just researches the network and joins.
the prob is when this thing happens and someone calls me the call is ringing but i dont get any ring or alert in my mobile.......
also sms is not delivered kater but is lost completely......
i jus looked out somewhere that these probs may be due to battery........

I had to get a new battery and performed a hard-reset on my phone and all was well after that. make sure you have a back-up on your numbers....
well savain

I've just chcecked the output voltage of my battery - when 45% charged - the voltage was 3.82 V.
in my opinion, your problem has nothing to do with the battery. I had same problem that you described - I switched to WM6 from WM5 - it did the trick.
now it hangs very seldom.
I guess that would help you (at least if you're using WM5).
oh but im using 6.1 at present
its TOM'S ROM.....
...
*for battery issue;
buy a new battery and
charge <----- device must be off!...
when green led light shows, its done..
this should sort your battery issue..
* for issue with - ''suddenly the phone service alone wont work and gets hanged..''
try a hard reset, if it still happens, open the device - open through the back of the device and simply give it a clean, ensure all connections are connecting, in other words, scratch the pins inside device if they need it.. assemble correctly and hope this helps..
-use cotton buds, the ones you use to clean your ears with..
-use a pin/needle to scratch connections..
*sounds like a hardware issue, not rom issue so cleaning inside the device is recommended..
*I've fixed my p3300 plenty of times now by just simply cleaning inside it.
- including the ''not charging'' and ''no sim'' issue people have experienced..
Not charging
HI Geeks, I have a problem with my blackstone battery. It is getting charged only up to 50 to 55 percent. I kept on charger for one ful night. But no use. I am using official ROM. Can you suggest any solution for that?
Help PLZ
I tired both the charger and the USB cable. Still the problem remains.
A new problem
Now i am facing a new problem. When i switch off the Touch HD, it will not start. When i press the power button, it shows "Smart Mobility" then it will go off. I tried once and pressed the power button again. It lasted some more time, reaching to the HTC logo screen.
Then I Connect the phone using the usb cable to the desktop and press the power button. WOW. it started without any problem. Can you help me to get around this problem?

[Q] On battery time not resetting

Hi.
Just flashed my Desire to LeeDroid 3.0.8.2
In Settings > About Phone > Battery > Battery Use , shouldnt it say charging while the phone is charging? I remember it used to be like that in 2.2. And I've been charging my phone but at the top where the graph is, says 13h 41m on battery.
I think it shuold be reset after I unplug or finished charging. At the bottom also displays the list of apps that have been using the battery.
I've reboot the phone, took off the battery. It just doesnt reset!
Is anyone experiencing the same problem?
addition :
when I press the graph at the top of the screen in Battery Use, it shows a graph.
At the top , it says , 13h 42m 36s on battery , at the bottom of the graph it says 17h 33m 59s.
If I remember clearly, 17hours ago was the time that I've successfully flashed to LeeDroid. Meaning ,it did not reset ever since!
Someone please help or comment.
update :
in recovery, wiping out battery stats reset it. However, it is still not functioning properly.
here's what ive noticed.
1. when I plug in the charger, the stats freezes regardless if I press refresh.
2. after unplugging, and did a pressed menu button > refresh in "Battery Use" , it updates,but resumes the time on battery.
Any help? Has it got anything to do with S-off? I did not do it. :|

No need to wait till 100%. Press that and change it to calibrate any time. Now go ahead with calibration. All the best.
Battery Problem
Guys
I updated my GD to 4.4.4 CM11 and everything is working ok except for one detail.
I carry my cell phone and start using normal, if not shut down or restart, but if I turn off or restart
sometimes ends when rebooting the battery for example was 74% back to 39%.
This has happened to me a few times, i already reinstalled the ROM, calibrated the battery but the problem remains.
Do you have any experience or story about this behavior?

In standby overnight, maybe 3-5% battery drain. A lot of things come in play though such as what apps you have installed, if your on LTE, or 3g, or wifi, or even go into airplane mode at night, etc.

first of all , I'd like to thank you for your reply ..
I've bought a new desire 816 two days ago and I can notice something wrong with the battery as it drains faster than normal
and it gives false percent as it increases after restarting the phone ..
I've tried to calibrate the battery by letting in turn off by itself then recharging it to 100% but then I realized It's still giving me false number
I don't know what to do ... It would be great if you can help

Have you tried a battery calibration app such as the one by NeMa in the PlayStore? It requires root but it basically asks you to charge your device to 100% which is done from empty to max in about 3 hours. At this point you go in the app while its still plugged in and "clear" the batterystats. This is the file that tells the device how much charge it can hold and on some devices this file gets buggy/glitched. It will wipe this file away and generate a new one based on the charge the battery holds at max. It then asks you to use the device as normal until it dies and recharge to full afterwards. This has worked for many and I hope it will work for you as well.
If you have excessive battery drain look at the Power settings and review the usage. If it shows a green line on awake and it doesn't show the same matching the screen on time then you have a background app sucking battery from the device. Facebook and its Messenger are known to be the culprits but if you download Greenify from the PlayStore. It will allow you to hibernate practically every app so there is no battery drain when your device screen is off. In combination with this app I am able to get an average day and a half of use with no charge and normal use with Videos, Music, Facebook, Messenger; etc. I average I use about 6-10 hours on this device with pure stock w/ root & Greenify with battery calibration via app done.

Yes, Greenify does require root in order to work but it does work flawlessly.

Unfortunately, the lack of rapid reaction because I was too busy
Pressing the power switch for exactly two minutes and the device will tell you Alglaq Do you want to or not agreed to the demand and calibration Congratulations to you
Thank you
I fixed my battery issue. the exposed software killed mine relating to the same issue i believe you had or have. reporting wrong percentage. once had 50 percent, took it back out of my pocket and within 5 mons i had 4%. wouldnt charge.
Power it off... hold all 3 buttons (power+volume up+volumedown) after 15 seconds it will boot back up. this calibrated my battery. hope this works for you.
Wrong battery percentage report is fixed by HTC on 1.58 rom update. it works fine on 1.58 Rom
My battery on my htc is draining fast I think it went from 100% to 83% percent in like 20 minutes is this normal? I have disabled everything that I'm able to disable on this phone but once it gets to 70% the drainage kinda slows down

phone won't turn on without charger plugged..

Hello everyone i got an Optimus g pro e980 with a custom rom downloaded from here ( i had the same problem on original firmware.. )
if i pull battery out for example or simply just turn off the phone.. i'm not able to boot it again without plugging the charger and wait for the battery charge icon..
i think the battery has some problems as.. sometimes.. form 68% when i turn off the phone it shows 10% or lower...
i also have some random reboots some times.. it may be the battery?.. screen also flickered for a minute but not has gone .. thank you.
Which ROM are you using? Screen flickering can be fixed by turning off the hw overlay in the developer's options. As for the battery, try get a calibrating app from the play store, else get a battery repair app to see if your battery can be fixed. My OEM battery is broken, which causes random reboot since it supplies power intermittently.

Your battery is probably dead if it looses capacity like that, replace it as soon as possible.

Can't tell about random reboots if no logs, can be anything with this phone. Mine likes to reboot because network changed from LTE to H+, or just out of sheer 'I wanna mess with my owner, for no reason at all' Because annoying the owners with bad temper is good for business
For screen flickering - do as hawkwind212 said, or try with other ROMs (I'm guessing you're using CM if you suffer from those)

Stock rom xD .. also tried using a custom rom... i tried using a 1200 mAh and force the phone turn on... and.. it worked.. so the problem may be the battery.. and not the phone idk tho...
i wanted to know if the motherboard from other models (98x) it would fit with my current model.. i mean.. the touchscreen and other things.. to work properly.. some people said that any 98x version would work but idk ...
