Hello Everyone,
I Just bought a LG Optimus G Pro and it is randomly shutting down or locking up to the point of where I have to pull the battery. Sometimes, I pull the battery and it still wont turn on so, I pull the battery again and it turns back on. Does anyone have a clue as to might what be wrong? Thanks for any help.
Which ROM are you using? Sometimes this had to do with the battery. So my suggestion is try a different battery, otherwise reinstall the ROM again.
I am using the stock AT&T ROM and I have purchased a battery so, thank youbforbthe suggestion!
Is random shutting down gone away after the new battery?

Hi all
After sitting with my stock SGS4 (i9505) for a few months I decided to root (as i had my N7000 and HTC Desire).
About the same time as this my phone began turning off seemingly randomly. At first i thought this may be a ROM/Kernel issue but I have tried a couple including Stock(rooted), Carbon and the GooglePlay Rom. The same thing happens for all of them.
Once off, the phone boots to splash screen then turns off. This cycles. I remove the battery and the phone will turn on, sometimes showing a SIGNIFICANT apparent drop in battery (90% reduces to 3% during this single on/off cycle). A quick charge and restart will often cause the rebooted phone to read the battery at 90% again.
The battery does appear slightly swollen and i'm curious if anyone could shed any light on:
1) does this seem a battery / firmware issue and
2) any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
Currently: GooglePlay Rom 4.2.2 PhilZTouch Recovery

If you're saying the battery is "swollen" it probably is a battery issue IMO. Especially if you're having problems on every ROM you've tried.
Have you tried going back to stock to see if it's still happening?
Hi
Thanks for replying. I'm downloading stock now so will report in the morning.

Hi,
So, went back to stock (binary counter has moved up unfortunately - didnt read into that before hand). Was still rebooting. Have replaced battery and this seems to have done the trick for the time being. I noticed that the unit did not reset until my google accout restored apps to the phone so there is still a chance it was a bad app i suppose.
Most likely the battery though
Thanks

Hello, I have recently re-flashed to stock on my E980, I am running the phone on the AIO network as an unlocked device (although it would run fine if it were ATT locked as well).
I am looking for ideas to why I am having a problem. So it goes like this...
The phone randomly turns off. It seems to happen in my pocket, not on the desk. When I go to turn it back on, it is unresponsive unless I pull the battery or plug it into AC. If I plug it in before pulling the battery, it says not enough power to turn on. If I pull the Battery and turn it on the homescreen loads and I have plenty of battery in the upper corner (75% or so). When the homescreen loads, its fine for awhile, then back to step 1.
I am currently unrooted (just flashed back using LG flash tools) however the problem was first noted on a rooted stock ROM. I installed CM11 thinking that maybe it was something in the ROM that was initally causing this and a new ROM was in store for me... Did it on CM 11 too. Then I reflashed to Stock and I am still having this issue.
I have tried most everything and my thought is that the battery is either toast or not being recognized properly. I do not have immediate access to a different battery, but I think i can get my hands on one... If I replace it, I'm thinking it would take me an hour or so to replicate the problem and I still wouldn't be certain that was the culprit.
Anyone have any ideas, or things I could try out before trying to source a test battery, or does this not sound like a battery issue?
hey
i got the same problem
gonna have new battery soon and see if its from this
the sell man told me its could be the ROM
gonna try the modem of e980H
I've been having a similar problem as you, and actually had the device factory reset while in my pocket. Going to try and find a battery around my area, and hoping it fixes the problem. Have you noticed any heating issues as well before the reboot?
yea its getting so heated and drain the battery so fast
i think cos its trying to find single i had that problem with rezound too
i think there connection when its got heat -> drain the battey > and also kills the battery after few times
hello
i had resurrection ROM and suddenly the phone turn off battery turn from 50 to 7 and turn off again and didn't stop unless i connect power cable
i format the device to ARHD ROM and its still doing it
but the problem is when im in TWRP it doesn't turn off with out power cable so it probably not the battery
any help please what it can be?
I have come across this problem of rapid battery loss but not as severe as yours, it took only 9 minutes for my whole battery to drain from 100 to 10. But i also did switch roms and even recovered stock firmware but nothing seemed to work. After a while, i kept switching and switching roms and eventually, the power issue stopped, i had no idea what happened. Is it because i don't use my phone often Anyways a battery replacement would probably be necessary if the problem still occurs. This power issue is inconvenient and would like to know if someone else would be able to know of a better solution.
Hi,
I currently have a problem with my g3. 60% of the times when I try to restart OR turn off/boot the phone doesn't boot at all until I remove/insert the battery which is annoying.
The phone is rooted and on cloudyg3. I had the same problem on Blisspop rom. Is it a hardware problem or software what do you think? The phone does not seems to completely shut down.
Oh, a time when battery ran out of juice, I charged the phone for 15min and noticed that i had to remove/insert battery to see the Red LED/Battery screen and make it turn on. An empty battery cannot keep the software running.
Thanks
Hello everyone! Recently my Note II started to behave differently. Whenever I charged it completely, the battery abruptly fell to sometimes 60% sometimes 40% immediately followed by low battery warning indication and shutting down. I tried changing ROM and calibrating the battery again but nothing worked. Finally I replaced the battery with a new one and also clean flashed another ROM in a hope to see if the problem is gone or still there. But to my surprise the problem is still intact. Now, when I turn on the phone the battery is 90% and when I keep using it, it drains normally, but as soon as I put it idle it turns off randomly. When I turn the phone back on the battery is still at the same percentage level at which is turns off. I believe there is not an issue with the battery. Please help me what to do, I am using TWRP recovery that doesn't gives the battery stats wipe option too. Should I flash a new ROM again? I would greatly appreciate if someone please helps me in sorting this problem.
What I have already done!
1. Replaced the battery
2. Changed the ROM
3. Re-calibrated the battery
