MDA Pro turns off all the time Help....

Hi all, i have the mda pro (t-mobile UK) Had tried lots of roms before but in the end i stuck with the latest official t-mobile rom & radio.
In the last few weeks i every time i try to connect with gprs the signal goes, other times the phone just goes dead, wont reboot properly for a few try's( gets to the windows mobile logo then dead again.
After a few try's it will boot up, but it turns off alot i mean just about every time i open up the phone. I thought maybe the battery but when i get it to boot up its fine %70 battery ect ect.
Its still under warrenty and is actual being sent back tomorrow for repair but i have a feeling they will just reflash and send it back as the problem is random.
Anybody any ideas whats wrong? did a hard reset and problem if anything is worse now and seems to be getting worse everyday. Ofcourse i dont know when the phone has went belly up as its closed over when not in use.
I really would like a replacment phone but as i said i think they will reflash and send back. I have to keep sim,battery ect.ect.
Info anyone.

With those symptoms my first thought would be a faulty battery. If i were you, I would insist on returning the battery for replacement as well.

Are Battery's covered under the first years guarantee?
Iam almost sure its the battery also, but the battery holds fine after it reboots, Having said that it never lasts anywhere near 24hrs and never has.

My MDA Compact III - DEAD to the WORLD :(

Hi All,
I have been reading through as always trying to give the kiss of life to the recently (1month) upgraded MDA Compact III. I have upgraded it from WM5 to Touch Flu WM6. It has been working great till last night it just died on me and now I can’t even turn it on... It comes on if i leave the battery out for a 10mins and then put it back in, but it will only go far as the boot screen and as soon as it comes to the password prompt it dies
SO I can’t get in to the bootloader...
Any help will be much appreciated
Thanks all
Kind regards,
DS

Just to clarify, if you do the sequence to put it in bootloader mode, it still wont come on? What if you have it connected to the computer, still no power?

I had that same problem
Well not to be the messenger of doom but it may eventually die for good, i dunno what causes this but the same thing happened to my xda orbit recently. I had it for about 7 months the 3 weeks ago i had that problem to fix it i would leave a battery out for about an hour, also it seems the more programs u have it seems the more crashes it has, not saying hard reseting fixes it just when i installed the touch 3.01 rom and installed as few programs as possible it didn't crash for a week but, last Thursdays picked it up turned it on started listening to music then it just crashed and wouldn't even turn on at all when i plug in the charger the light didn't turn on or anything taking it to the o2 shop tomorrow.

I would think if u were to claim u may still be able to claim from the warranty if flashing it doesn't void it i sure hope not but i also insured mine so if the warranty is void i still have a life line.

i also have the same problem... i have upgraded to wm 6, first day was OK. i put my arte in my back pocket... when i took it out, it was shut down.... first i thought that it was because i sat on it... but it didnt open after that... when i plug charger it doesnt charge... however i managed to charge the battery fully... if i take the battery for a period of time.. it seems to work but crashes again, slowly going in black screen with a green vertical line in the center...
what should i do? please help me... unfortunately there's no htc shop here in turkey...

I am affraid that you lose the warranty because u flashed (updated) your orginal ROM.
Mayby damaged is only storage of ROM - memory chip

i didn't lose my warranty on mine maybe because they couldn't turn the phone on to check it out properly, i just got it back yesterday with the official o2 rom and no questions asked. b4 u take it back if u can flash the official T-Mobile rom then their shouldn't be any problem i would think.

I have same problem can someone point me in the right direction for the rom please same phone

Galaxy Tab 3 8.0 not charging

I just noticed that my tablet won't charge. First I thought it was unplugged but my phone charges. The only way to fix it is to reset it. Does any one know what could be doing this or why!

Facing the same issue from past two days. When I plug in the chager in the morning, the tab does not charge. But after I restart the tab it starts charging. Yest the batt was at 5% and today it was 24% when I wanted to charge in the morning.
Tried different power points at home but none seem to work untill the tab is restarted. Am using the original Samsung charger which was supplied with the tab.
Have been using the tab from past 2 months but this issue has cropped up only recently.

I'm not the only one!! I noticed it a few days ago. It was like 15% left. went to plug and next day it was 10%. I was like.huh.. wondering if it had to do with the last update? How can we tell Samsung about this? I also noticed it wont connect to a computer unless you reboot. It's like the USB port goes into deep sleep.

It happening to me also. I call support and they told me to connect the tab to the wall outlet, hold the power button for 30 sec, disconnect, reconnect and turn on. That procedure will clear the charging system. I did that and today, happens again. They told me to test with another charger, that I am going to do today, because I have the S4 and is the same charger. Will see what happens....
If the another charger test fail, then send the device for warranty claim..
A questions for all of you? : My tablet was build on Vietnam, as per the sticker outside the box.. where yours were build?

You can count me in on this problem too. I went through a lot of diagnostics with email support, chat support and phone support. Finally I sent mine back to Samsung for repairs, just received it back today, this evening the charging problem started again (4-5 hours on charge, stuck at 65% all that time). Called back, got a new label, put it back in the shipping box to go out tomorrow. Mine was made in Vietnam as well if that means anything.

I am with support now to send it to them. I will mention your experience to Samsung now... I think this vietnam machines are gone bad!! damn!!

I received the Tab and now is working fine. They did some software fix.

Same issue
Having the same problem with my Tab 3, Best Buy shipped it to geek squad who looked at it for 5 minutes and shipped it back No Trouble found. Guess I'm going to have to ship it directly to Samsung.

I encountered the same issue once, restarting it fixed it, haven't encountered it since. That was the second (and so far) last time I restarted the device btw, first time was for some update, I'm still not clear what that update contained btw

Mine returns with the same problem. I spoke to Samsung again, and they, at least, need two visits to the service center in order to qualify to an exchange. I hope this second time they fixed.
A question: yours was made in vietnam?

I found the serial code, according to sndeep.info it was made in Vietnam, didn't find anything else that could specify country of origin though. Anyway, there's the answer, Vietnam!

I never sent it in for warranty. I feel its software issue. I noticed when the battery is low and I connect to laptop. Then I disconnected and then try charging it. It doesn't charge. I have to restart it to charge. I should send it in for warranty.

[Q] Charging problem

Hello people,
I got a GT-i9300 for about 7 months now and since yesterday i got problems charging it.
2 days ago i went to sleep and as always putted it on charge and i saw the charging notification. When i woke up ~8h later the phone was not charged at all and while connected it was not charging.
I tried reconnecting it a couple of times but nothing. I tried connecting it to a pc but nothing. Then i used the charger that came with S4 and after a couple of seconds it started charging, few minutes later it just stopped again. Reconnected it and it was charging, made it to 100% normally.
Today i tried connecting it again but now it won't charge, likewise i won't connect to pc the moment i connect it but after ~5m at least and it's only charging, the pc won't see the phone anywhere.
Also tried another S3 charger but nothing.
I only have official samsung chargers. 2 x s3 and a s4 one. None works on it at the moment while they work normally on my s4.
I tried it turning it off and removing battery but nothing, did a full wipe but still nothing.
The usb itself looks alright plus yesterday when i was charging it i moved the wire around a bit to check if it was the connection but it was not.
I was looking around the web but found nothing and the similar threads here ain't the same as my case.
Also the phone is on official firmware and not rooted.
Does anyone know anything about it ? I will most likely take it to service tomorrow but since i need the phone i would prefer not to have a ~5 days delay from them.

I have the same problem and the only thing that will charge it is a higher voltage playbook charger. I'm not too sure what the problem is but if you do get it serviced could you please post the cause of this issue?

Sadly i don't have a higher voltage charger plus i don't think it's a good idea to use that, at least not all the time.
Will take it for service tomorrow unless i solve it somehow. Will report back with what they will tell me.

I had previously flashed official 4.2 on my s3 but i reverted to the carrier official version, about 2 months ago. Any chance i will have problems with warranty with the flash count being 3 ?
I read that you normally don't have a problem but i want to know if someone had first hand experience with that.

This can very well be a problem. Your best option is to root and reset flash counter with triangle away. After reset, re install original firmware with Odin. If they do warranty fix it, it will be by replacing the motherboard, so if there is anything you need off of it, be sure to back it up on a computer. Also, flashing original with Odin can wipe the device so back up before then. If they look and see a custom flash counter of 3, your warranty will be void.

Alright, took it to service yesterday ( official samsung service ) and got it today. They changed the usb port and all is good, warranty had it covered.
I didn't reset counter before giving it but they either didn't check the counter or checked it and it was not an issue.

S4 Mini LTE died a while ago, still dead.

Hello, I bought this phone 4 years ago and it died while I was in Japan last year.
There I bought a second hand Galaxy S4 to be able to use google maps during my trip so I didn't bother too much with it. The problem is that during the first half of the trip all my pictures were taken with it so that's why I want to " revive " it now.
It died during the night because one day I woke up and it din't turn on, no sign of life, even when hooked to a computer. I already tried to change the battery since my dad had the same phone but nothing.
I would like yo know if there is some way to recover the NAND data ( the pictures are the most important for me ) or to have the phone back working. I had Lineage OS installed when the phone stopped working.
