[Q] one x not switching on

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?

Note 2 only charging when off

Hey guys, I'm having charging issues. I'm rooted and on jedi x14. I'm using the zerolemon 9300 mah battery. My phone started acting up about 3 days ago. I put it to charge all night and come morning it did not. When turned on, the charging symbol would not even turn on. I changed the battery with my stock samsung battery and it showed the charging symbol, but was charging at 0 mah on galaxy charging current so I switched back to the zero lemon. It said it was charging but it was still charging at 0 mah. I left my phone on and on the charger for 9 hours and it is still at the same percentage. I turned it off for about 10 minutes while plugged in and when turned back on, it went up 2%. While turned off, the phone will not even recognize that it's charging. For example, usually when my phone is working properly and turned off, it will show a big green battery showing that it's charging. Mine would not do this. When I try to turn it on when on the charger, it will show a spinning battery symbol as if it's trying to read the battery but goes away after two seconds. My phone will not turn on when connected and powered off. After unplugging it, it will boot normally. I am using the stock samsung power brick with a different cable that is 6 ft but would still charge at 2 A up until recently. The charger works on an s3 mini, s3, and s2 with no issue. Please help, any suggestions are appreciated. I bought the phone in November and have insurance with tmobile.

Now it's not charging at all. I tried using a micro usb to micro usb cable to pull some battery out of an s3 but that did not work.

Not gonna find a fix. It sounds like hardware. Try your orig cord. If it doesnt charge let tmobile deal with it via warranty.

Original cord not charging. Something weird just happened. My phone went into docking mode and I don't know how tk get out of it. It's not plugged in at all. I'm in a foreign country and can't replace the phone for at least another week. This sucks.

Try cleaning the contacts on your usb port. I was having a similar issue and it worked for me.

The error icon indicates that the USB port is probably okay since it is registering that it's plugged in.
The battery could be defective. Take it out and look at it closely. Does it show any signs of bulding at all?
If so then get a new battery. If not then I'd say take your new phone back to the store and get a new one. It's a brand new phone. Don't try to fix it. Get a replacement.

I'm going to check with my friends battery if it works I will get a new battery if not I will take it back to tmo since it's brand new only has 3 weeks

My cord that came with the s4 crapped on me, maybe it's just the cord.

Is it heating up when you plug it in. My fiance had a problem with hers not charging but we noticed it was heating up on the right side above the battery. I took it apart and when I plugged it in there was a short in the ribbon cable with a consent spark. It was unrooted and taken back that day.

I saw on drippler that an s4 caught on fire. Our that there was battery issues with a bunch of devices. Id sure hate to have my S4 spontaneously combust during a phone call. Ha

Phone won't turn on anymore

Hi everyone,
my phone simply won't turn on anymore. It was still working fine yesterday and before I went to sleep I plugged it in the original AC charger like everyday (the phone was on ~50% battery and still working after I plugged it in). But when I tried to wake up to phone in the morning nothing happened. I disconnected the charger and tried to turn on the phone again but still nothing. Then I tried connecting it to my computer but that did not work either. The phone does not show any signs that it is "alive".
I checked the charger and usb port of the phone if their is any visible hardware damage but there wasn't. The phone is only 3 weeks old and was working fine until yesterday. It was running on MDB08M and the bootloader was unlocked so I do not know if I can send it back on warranty.
Anyone here who got the same problem and found a solution?
(sorry for my bad english)

I would try connecting it to the PC and check device manager for any signs of life.

I had a similar problem, the charger died but luckily I had a spare charger

I have tried connecting it to my computer but there is no sign of life.
I guess there is no other choice than sending it back to google with the bootloader unlocked ...

My phone has died almost the same. It started to reboot itself like almost everytime ((( and same with unlocked bootloader.... I had mine for 2 weeks. Now I wonder if its common issue with N5X... Did you send your to repair???

This just occurred on my phone. Working just fine with 80% battery. Started GMaps to get some directions. Hung for a couple of seconds then just turned off. Won't respond to button pushes and won't go into recovery mode either. It's like the phone is dead dead.

All these threads about 5xs dying. I guess I better really start saving for a op3t. ? I've had mine a year and it's been fine but from what I've gathered from reading, someone said that's when they usually bite it is a year+... ?

Not sure if it has anything to do with it or not but I never leave mine plugged in all night. I zap it an hour and roll out... Always scared it would melt for some reason..lol

Note II Not starting up and not charging

Hey guys it has been a while since i used my Note 2, i had custom cyanogen rom v12 stable running it..
The phone has been off for a month.. i wanted to use it again so at first it wouldn't start, figured it would be battery ran out so plugged it for charge yet not battery symbol/logo of charging came out as it used to do.. i let it for about half an hour plugged in and tried to turn it on yet nothing happened.
i also tried download mode and recovery yet also not booting into them.
My brother has a functioning Note 2 so i thought maybe the issue is battery wise, so i switched batteries between both phones,
[the battery that was originally in my phone now in the functioning other phone... AND IT CHARGED NORMALLY]
[the battery taken from the other phone and put it into mine didn't charge!!!]
What's the problem with my phone?? how can it brick by itself after just leaving it turned off for a month.
I hope i can find a solution for it
Regards

Are you using the original Samsung cable and charger with the phone?

yeah the official cable.
I don't know why the phone failed on its own

Maybe try a 2.0 amp charger? Was the phone exposed to moisture?

Does the phone actually function properly now that the battery is charged? You could try disassembling the phone and removing the charging port and cleaning it with isopropyl alcohol and baking just the port on a cooking sheet in the oven for 5 minutes at 350 degrees. This fixed my Note II when it wouldn't charge after I dropped it in water

I also have a similar problem. I was on dn4 rom when this started my phone didn't even alow me to flash a rom so I used Odin aand failed the first time and thankfuly it worked the 2nd time. Now the phone is better than before but if I unplug it turns off and tries to reboot but stays on the note 2 logo and also if the battery is on 82% and it reboots it can jump all the way to 4%.

Problem is that the phone was left in my closet untouched for a whole month, i changed the battery and was sure it was 100% charged...
[no note 2 logo , no nothing] .. the phone is black and doesn't turn on
Its not a battery issue more than i think its the faulty rom that ruined it

how did odin recognized your phone when it can't turn on?

I bet the display backlight failed or burnt out.

The phone could only go into download mode. Also if I try to turn it on, it would only show the note 2 logo and won't go any further. Yesterday I tried an aftermarket battery with my phone and it was able to boot past the note 2 logo.

No that's not the case, samsung said that if a display backlight dies, the phone still vibrates when you turn it on... that's what tells if the screen display is burnt out or not
