[Q] Samsung Captivate Glide shuts off randomly and won't turn on... - Samsung Captivate Glide

For some reason my phone will randomly turn off (or black out screen)/say it has 0% battery life and turn off, and when I press my power button it begins to turn on and show the ATT screen, but then shut off... and if I try to turn it back on the same thing happens. It seems that if I wait 10+ minutes it will turn back on "normally" but after a little while it does the same thing. What do you think is wrong with it?
Also if I plug in my charger to it, the phone doesn't have this problem.

I have been facing the same issue. Any luck with it?

Check your battery, if it's swollen you need to replace it. I had the same problem, replacing fixed it.

[HELP] My screen does not turn off.

I've got a little problem that is draining my battery.
When i press the power button, my screen turns off, but two second later it turns on into the lockscreen.
Already tried a full wipe to look if some app is causing the problem, but nop. it still had the problem.
However the weird thing is that when i use the phone it never turns the screen off. it does sometimes pop up the power menu, but that does not happen often.
I hope someone can help me, because it annoys the heck of off me that i can't even get 7 hours out of my phone w/ minimal use.

Power button "stuck"

My friend gave me his s2 to see if I can fix it.. The symptoms suggest the power button is stuck. But it can be pressed and it releases and can be pressed again, so it is not stuck as in jammed.
The battery is removed, and when the battery is replaced, the phone immediately tries to turn on. It vibrates and goes to the Samsung logo, then the screen goes black and continues to vibrate every 2-3 seconds.
I managed to get it to go to the boot anim a few times, but it froze and restarted. I also got it into recovery but it immediately restarted after that as well.
My only other thought is that the CPU isn't drawing enough power from the battery. What do you guys think?

You can try some of the things in this thread

It says it will work if it is stuck and not defective. Does stuck literally mean it is stuck in the housing and cant be pressed?

Battery wont charge

my LGOG has been having weird battery stats and would always go down fast then turn off randomly but when i restarted (after it turned off) the phone it would turn on. The problem is that it wont just turn on with the power button. It had to be the volume button and power button. I just now tried to recalibrate the battery since i am not rotted so i drained the battery then kept turning it on (power+volume) till it drained. Now all i get when i turn it on is the recovery window which the select button (power) wont due anything so i have to just do a restart and itll go right back into it. the phone is even charging right now.... help pleeasseee
EDIT: I left it on all last night on the charger and the recovery screen now it wont turn on at all or even charge......
EDIT: I did a battery pull now itll only go into a black screen with blue text saying recovery. And the power button wont select anything. So i just do a hard restart and itll just bot back into the same menu..help!
EDIT: FIXED IT! I had to use the menu button to select...im so stupid... im deleting this thread if this doesnt help anyone
Ask a moderator to close it. I might.

Screen stays lit when charging with the phone off.

Before I unlocked my phone, when it was powered off and on the charger I would get a fancy looking battery on the screen that looked to be charging. After a minute the screen would shut off and the red led would like up till it was charge. That was stock and rooted.
Now after unlock, with the phone off and on the charger I get a very very simple white battery on the screen that animates filling up. After 30 seconds or so the battery disappears but the screen stays on. No way to turn of the screen. No red led just a lit screen when the phone is off. When the phone is on all is normal and the screen is off and the red led lights up to show its charging.
I'm stock ROM, liberty kernel and no kernel tuning. I checked setting and they say screen should be off when charging. I have TWRP 2.5.0 for recovery. Any ideas why the screen won't turn off when charging with the phone off?
Thanks.

Mine does the same thing. It hasn't really been a problem. You can charge your phone with it on and just with the screen off. If you're concerned with charging it rapidly you can just turn on airplane mode. Airplane mode and screen off charges nearly as quickly as the phone being completely off.

Thanks for the reply. I usually charge with the phone on but screen off. My issue is if the phone dies (powers itself off) and I charge it, the screen is still lit even though the phone died.

Mine did the same thing after I unlocked too. Wasn't really worried about it though. I know switching to an aosp based ROM fixes the issue

This is happening to my LG OG as well, and having the Battery Doctor app installed usually showed the progress if I clicked the power button to show the screen, but then back off completely. Now it's that weird little white battery icon and when that goes away, the screen is empty but lit.
I preferred the Battery Doctor charging screen when off, since it shows percentage complete. If there is a way to restore that setting, please help. :fingers-crossed:
I will try to find a new AOSP ROM as was suggested below as well... keep you posted.

Woahhhh im having the exact same problem here! but my phone is NOT charging, it stayed on the little cheapo battery thing overnight and its still not booting up now
Same here
Anyone out there has a suggestion/fix ?
If I have problems I boot into recovery and let It charge that way
G0d is here. now Free
Having this issue as well, any solution?
Found none yet. I just let it charge up enough to boot back up. Then finish charging with the phone powered on but screen off.

Stock did this for me. Any Aosp rom will fix this.

Have you updated your ROM to Stock ZVC? I am using Spleef's Carbon, and I clean flashed the updated file and restored my apps/data with TiBu, as well as updating my BatteryDoctor app, I'm not only getting the screen to turn off when charging, but it's also showing me the percentage charged on the little battery animation when I turn the screen (not the device) on.

[Q] Screen wont turn on after some time

Well i cant really find a good title for my problem.
Usually at night when my phone idle for a few hours its just "falls a sleep" or something
I can see the charging led or a green led if I have a message but no matter how much ill press the wake up button
the screen wont turn on, only if ill hold it for like 10-20 sec the phone will restart.
any idea how i can fix that ?
Are you on Stock Rom/Kernel? Rooted? If you want help you'll have to be a little more specific about your case, it sounds like your phone won't come back from deep sleep, AFAIK it could be kernel related, I've had this happen to me but not definitely like your case, usually a couple of presses of the power button revive it to the lock screen as it should.
