Model: Tab S T805M (that's the 10" with LTE) rooted and stock firmware. I've had it for over 6 months and nev er had any issues, ever!
Yesterday I fully charged the battery using an original Samsung charger (from my late Nexus 10) until it was full.
I then used it for a while (basic stuff) then installed a game (Hill Climb Racing), played for a bit, then let it sit on the coffee table. Naturally, it went into sleep mode. Once I tried to turn it back on, about 30 minutes later, it was dead.
It doesn't have a SIM nor micro SD card in it.
I tried the key combos to get into bootloader or recovery, no go.
I tried holding power button for several seconds, no go.
I tried connecting the original charger that came with it, no go.
I hooked it up to my laptop, the same I had used to root the thing months ago and has Odin and all drivers installed and everything, no go. It won't even acknowledge there's some USB device connected.
Then, for some reason, while still connected to the laptop, I was randomly pressing buttons on the tablet (out of mild desperation, I was tired, just wanted to get it fixed and get some sleep) and I saw the battery logo again. It was at 99%, the way it was wen I last used it. So I unplugged the tablet and booted it normally.
Then, again, I used it for a while, connected to my WiFi, everything normal, and once it went into sleep mode, it died again. No buttons, no USB, no response to charger.
So, the problem is repeatable, but I haven't figure out yet the exact procedure to bring it back from the dead.
I'd like to fix it, even if I need to flash the stock ROM back on and lose root. If that's impossible, I'll settle with a tip on how to reboot the stupid thing once it enters this state. Then, eBay, here we go.
KNOX was tripped when I rooted, so I guess I can only try my luck with the warranty.
I think you should start your post letting people know that you have rooted and flashed your 10.5" and not in the last three lines.
Do you think your battery level is being reported correctly, as if your tab thinks you have 90% left when you only have 50% , then you game and use 50%, and think you still have 40% left but when your battery hits 39% it will just die, no battery warning or anything.
Flashing a tablet can cause the battery to be reported incorrectly, since you are rooted, download a free battery calibration app off the play store.
You say you have had your tablet 6 months, if you game or use other apps that rapidly drain the battery, the battery might be failing.
Since you say the fault is repeatable i would have the tablet replaced, flash it back to the stock rom and remove the root, Can you reset the KNOX counter, I think i read you can somewhere on this forum.
Good Luck

Yes, I did mention in the FIRST line I had a rooted device with stock ROM.
Tonight I was just able to enter bootloader and stock recovery and did a data wipe / factory reset. Let's see what happens now.
I'll install a battery tool to see what's really going on. Maybe my battery is ****.
GSam is the battery monitor i use, have a look at the alarms in the setting, I have them all set, I got a high temp alarm while my tab was in it`s case while i was asleep in bed, I remove my tab and the back was hot, just shows what can happen when you think your tablet is sleeping.
I bought my 10.5" before Christmas and it has never been turned off or rebooted, I have about 170 days continuous use in the battery settings, so it`s been quite reliable for me apart from that little temp hiccup.

Hello everyone. newbie here.
My sony Z1c seems to have developed a bug/issue. 2 days ago my phone was on charge, green led at the top was on and my battery showed at 100%. I unplugged the device jumped into bed, set my alarms as usual. I then woke up 2 hours later then i should of to find my z1c was dead. Nothing was running in the background etc so instantly knew something was up. Tried charging my phone at work via usb>pc and it kept saying my phone is losing charge quicker then its charging (never seen this message before) . I could turn the phone on but the battery level stayed at 2%, as soon as it was unplugged from the pc it would instantly die.
When i got home i done a few "reset" searches and come across the hold volume up and power at the same time until phone vibrates method. This now seems to allow my phone to charge normally again and the battery goes past 2%. However again today my phone went dead overnight. So the issue is still there, im just able to charge the device again.
I dont appear to have anything running in the background
havent done any firmware,software,app updates in the last couple of days (again that im aware off, unless they forced any)
also noticed the phone gets extremely hot at periods for unknown reasons?
Anyone here able to help or advice? is this a faulty battery, software,firmware issue etc? any fixes
d5503
running 4.4.4
14.4.a.0.108
Thanks in advance
Have you tried a different charger? Charge it using wall charger with supplied cable. I don't think firmware is draining your battery. Possible that u r caught up with a faulty battery if u don't have any issues with charger.
My advice "Head to Sony Service Centre asap".
Have you 'ever' installed any custom ROM on this phone then reflashed/restored something later after accquired? It could be the underlying system's battery state is different than the current running OS' one. Try calibrating the battery a couple of times to see if that make any difference.
Hello. Thank you for the replies.
The phone charges correctly via mains and usb(laptop,ps4 etc) since i done that power+volume up reset. Pretty sure my leads and plug are fine. i could try different usb leads though. the charge level is certainly showing me 100% charge
I have never used any ROM's or Roots. i dont know fully what they are. I used to have a jailbroken iphone so it sounds similar. Id be prepared to do down any of them routes if it fixes my phone
Everything updated has been official releases. I dont appear to of updated anything recently though so i cant put it down to a system update or new app update. - something might have glitched somewhere i dunno
Charged the phone during my first post and again it says its gone to 100% after a couple of hours. unplugged the charger. restarted the phone and checked nothing that hasnt been on for the last 3 months hasnt turnt on and all seems fine there. So just left it in standby
checked it 10minutes later to see charge levels. am down to 87%
using gsm battery app it says 68.9% app usage, when i click that
android system 53%
kernel (andoid os) 19.5%
then i have a list of other stuff running all be 2%
them 2 shouldnt be that high should they?
then when i go default settings>power> batt usage
android system 37%
googleplay service 21% (doesnt appear to be updating/syncing anything. should all be off. never used syncing)
screen 14%
android OS 5%
cell standby 5%
the rest of the list are 2's and 1's
phone was cool when charging, since rebooting the device and unplugging it, its now getting hot??? would of expected it to be the other way around!!!
Might want to give it a go of this:

Sorry, newbie can't post URL yet:crying:
Hi again, Jcw i done a full factory result and everything now appears to be fine now. Phone has been on for 3hours standby and on 98% battery, It would have been dead by now and extremely hot at the back. Now running alot cooler. Thanks for the advice.
Have no idea what happened. Something was seriously draining the battery though. Glad its fixed. Thanks again
I've had my TAB PRO 8.4 since about half a year now, and it's been a really good experience. But then suddenly one day I was just using it for my daily tasks and it suddenly restarted and then it did it again and again, it got stuck in a bootloop. Then it drained the battery and stopped, when I came back home I tried charging it normally, but noticed it wasn't charging past a certain percentage, and since I was also playing with it while it was plugged in then I just thought it was just because of that.
After that, I left it plugged in all night as I've always done but when I woke up, it was STILL STUCK at that percentage (around 25%). It was like that for a couple days with the battery, I restarted the device (longpressing the power/lock key), when I it came back ON then suddenly the battery percentage jumped to around 51% and I thought it was solved but it wasn't, then it didn't want to go past that percentage, and the worst came when I unplugged the device and the battery drained incredibly quickly, like in a matter of seconds it was down more than 10% of the battery.
It's been like this since about a week now, the charging process gets stuck at some random percentage, and when I use it while unplugged then the battery just drains in such a crazy and quick manner. And also, the bootloops come back every once in a while and I have to go into safe mode or odin mode and then restart so that it stops, but the battery/charging issue never stops, it just behaves randomly crazy. I really don't know if it's software or hardware, whether I should try rooting or something like that, or whether I should try to send it to Samsung under the 1year warranty (it's just that I bought it in USA, and I dont live there and it would be just a great pain in the ass in time and money) or just try to live with it like this.
What do yo guys think I should about this?

Well, I kinda resolved it, at least the charging one. I had to drain all the battery down to 0% until it shut itself down, and then I turn it back on and for some crazy reason there was about 50% left but it quickly got drained and went off on 0%, then I turned it back on once more and it was 0% but still it lasted a couple minutes on and again it went off, did that process so many times until it couldn't go back on anymore. At that point, I put it on the charger and it got well charged to 100% at last, and the battery now is working kinda normal, even though the random reboot loops come back every once in a while, specially when on low battery, but that's about it.
If you ever find any definite solution for your charging issue, please contact me.
Hey Guys,
My wife and I both have a Sprint Note 4. She runs hers stock and I am always looking for the next ROM. Currently I'm running the newest Hybrid X 3 rom. I'm posting this here because I don't think it's ROM specific. I've had this problem with other ROMs too and I'm curious if anyone else has...
Our phones will just die at 20% like they're dead. And my phone just did it at 35%. Not sure what is going on..
If anyone has ideas, let me know. I do need to run a battery calibration tool, but I've read other places that they don't work.
Thanks,

My phone has done that too a few times. I'm on stock rooted KitKat and sometimes it will die between 6 and 10% so it could be a calibration issue. let me know if the app you try works and the name of it. Thanks
I've probably done this without thinking much about it. I had installed Xposed and disabled the low battery warnings and totally ran it to power down. Knowing that Sammy used to use a panic rob of ~20%, I charged fully with phone off and then powered up. I believe at step 3, you should leave the charger plugged while powering on. I'm not sure but it seems the old calibration data will be applied if you remove charger before booting.

If that doesn't work, try the OP of Noterized or OBAR.
Edit: The 2 run to 0% shutdowns were done on OB7. I've ran OG5 down to 5% with no issue so far. Still running original battery since day one and get max 10.5 hours SOT.

Its an issue with the new ROM. I too get this all the time. My cousin also gets this on his Tmobile Note 4.
I spoke to a Sprint Rep who also stated he has the same issue with his Note 4.
Yes same here, fully stock.

That's just odd to me. I've been running rooted stock Odex from tx_dbs_tx OB7 to OG5 tar ball. Still using the OB7 bootloader and I've been running the battery capacity down to 5% before charging without any false shutdowns that suggest it's actually 0% prior to charging.
Phone has been running fine. Only a couple of odd issues to report is the messaging app shutdown without explanation or notification while I was composing a text message; went black screen and came back to home screen. I thought it may have been some settings? Yesterday, I tried to update Milk Music and got a -505 error from Google Play. I had to remove Milk Music from the system and data directories and download from Play to get the update; clearing the app's data & cache or uninstalling the previous update and rebooting made no difference. Prior to that the app always launched but on a couple of occasions inexplicably wouldn't start playing music after pressing play a few times; never showed a pause icon, just flashed play icon each press but no music. Appears to be stable despite that; phone and Milk Music was ready, willing and able this morning for a brief workout with V4A and Dolby Atmos to pump up the beats.
I've gotten as much as 10+ SOT rooted with Beastmode kernel on this build; pics posted in freeza's Beastmode kernel 5.1 hello root thread. Fully functional AFAIK, now. No freezes, shutdowns or reboots.
Here's a thought. If the simple fix I posted earlier does nothing, backup and wipe everything but the ExtSdCard and format the data partition a few times. Select reboot to power off and pull battery for 30 seconds. Reflash the stock tar or the other tar ball if actually using OB7 bootloader in Odin and let phone boot normally with auto reboot enabled. You should see the stock recovery open briefly to update the csc files and boot. Once it boots, don't get in such a hurry to go through the setup wizard because the phone will interrupt you saying it needs to reboot to complete installation. Reboot and run the setup wizard.
For rooted users, I'd recommend doing the above steps before root or flashing custom files in Odin or TWRP. For non rooted users, simply flashing the stock tar with Odin or KIES wouldn't void warranty or trip Knox counter. Do the factory reset first and make sure the Reactivation lock is disabled. There's also a Knox active protection setting in Settings/Security that can enabled to protect and root if lost; disable that prior to factory reset and power down prior Odin or KIES tar as well.

I've had this happen to me a few times in the last 2 weeks suddenly out of no where and at varying battery percentages. It's happened at 20%, 12%, 10%, 5% to name a few.
I am completely on the latest 5.1.1 and am not rooted. It's really annoying. Wonder if the batteries are beginning to cut out, maybe defective. I've had my Note 4 since it hit the stores.
I'm seriously thinking about contacting Samsung to file a warranty claim.
I had the same problem
My phone would die really quick ones it reaches 20%
I bought a new battery and problem solve
Sent from my SM-N910P using JellyBombed Tapatalk 2
Mine did that a time or two and of course at the least opportune times
My old battery would drop from 30% to 0% within seconds. I took it to the sprint store and have them tested. Sure enough, there are issues with the battery. After getting a new battery, problem solved.
P.S. The Sprint rep told me I shouldn't leave the phone plugged-in when I go to bed.
Well either purchase new battery or just try to calibrate It like older times. May be calibrating it give you desired results...

Contacted Samsung and was told to boot into safemode and run the phone without 3rd party apps loaded to see if it still did it. I was aggravated naturally because I need my apps. Well I did it and sure enough, the phone behaved properly, did not shut down unexpectedly. Now I'm really mad. I still think it's the battery but it was hard to prove that with safemode not replicating the issue. Can some of you try it and let me know your results. Thanks.
Freddie: Below are the instructions for Safe Mode.
Freddie: 1. Power the device off (remove and re-insert the battery after 30 seconds).
Freddie: 2. Press and hold the Volume down key, then press and hold the Power key.
Freddie: 3. When the first boot screen displays; release only the Power key.
Freddie: 4. Keep pressing the Volume down key until the device boots up completely
Freddie: 5. If successful, Safe Mode will appear on the device screen in the bottom left corner.
Was having the same issue, from 30% it would go down to 5% in an instant, or at 25% it would just die and reboot. Replaced the battery with an anker battery off of amazon for $12 or so, battery has worked perfectly since then.
I just bought two batteries off Amazon, but has anyone had success getting a warranty claim validated through Samsung and actually get a new battery without hassle. I would love to have two new stock batteries as my wife's and mine are doing the same thing.

Not yet, I just bought a new battery from BestBuy yesterday and got them to price match Amazon. Hoping I see a difference with the new battery and then will go back to Samsung and let them know that fixed it and maybe convince them to replace it under warranty.
I just can't stand that they want me to factory reset and not install any apps to make sure it's the battery. Maybe I can send in the bad one and have them test the battery. That might work.
My phone just started doing this within the last week or so. My phone is only 11 months old too. Yeah guys, let's seal the battery up so nobody can change it on their own #note5. Another service they can charge $$ for. So it looks like the go to solution is a new battery? Sprint is selling a wall charger w/battery right now for $25, pretty good deal. I am going to try calibration too but am not confident it will help after what I'm reading here.
At least I won't spend much more time trying to 'fix' it. Thanks for the thread!
So, after a little while with the new battery and actually using both because, hey, it's nice having 2 batteries it happened again on the old battery. I actually wiped my phone yesterday and so it's definitely the battery.
Contacted Samsung again today and reference my previous chat. Agent was very quick to give me an RMA for the battery and upon request, even sent me a UPS return label.
Moral of the story, be persistent and they will replace the battery.
Well my battery has started showing failure after 14 months. Last week I rebooted my phone at 15% and it failed to boot; went black. Plugged the charger in and it said 0% charging. Ordered another battery. Deleted the /data/system battery bin stats, charged to full and verified in off condition that it's fully charged.
Still waiting on the replacement battery; delayed due to bad weather... started a benchmark at 26%, today, and the phone shutdown before I returned to check results. Plugged the charger again and again it says 0%. LOL.
Samsung makes a good battery but my experience with them has been the lying% indicator worsening with age. For me, that circuit seems to go before the battery usability goes. I was still getting 5+ hours SOT with heavy use before the % error started. I get more 8 or more SOT if just browsing the web and tapatalk. I'm running stock rooted and have mostly ran just that. Battery is original and I haven't had a backup until ordered. The same battery once got up to 10.5 hours SOT back in KitKat do it has degraded over time.
Not replacing with a Samsung battery. Sorry Samsung. Just unplugged charger with charge showing at 85% and battery % jumped to 100% (the note 8 tends to do this also, even before rooting it). Been using it awhile since unplugging and it's still at 94%. It doesn't drop fast; it just lies and has died twice now near the 20% remaining. Last set of third party batteries I purchased didn't do this and didn't drop 10% on a reboot either. Samsung % seems to get a little dishonest post 50% when rebooting. It's a good thing I've charged to 100% before flashing in recovery or Odin lately. This doesn't leave me feeling warm and fuzzy about buying a phone or tablet with non user replaceable battery, Samsung! However, I'm thrilled I can pull and play a $12 replacement battery in a jiffy on this Note 4!

Hello xda members,
So i will go straight to my problem.
Yesterday I left my Z5 Premium to charge over night (for like 4-5 hours). When i get up for work, I disconnected it from charger and quickly checked my phone (standard route - messenger, line app) those actions didn't take longer than 2 minutes. After that i left my on couch and went to bathroom. When i came back phone was super hot and with black screen. Tried to turn it on and off but nothing happened and decided to don't touch it and wait for it to cool down. Unfortunately it's been over 24 hours since that happened and still phone didn't even vibrate when i try to turn it on.
I started to thinking that battery or cpu is gone (when i put it back to charger again start to get super hot).
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards,
Stanimir Hristov.

Is the phone hot towards the top part (cpu) or bottom/middle (battery)?
Sounds like you have an app that's stuck and running the cpu at max frequency constantly...did you install/update any app before the problem arose? If so, uninstall/downgrade it and see...
Are you using Flat Style Colored Bars by any chance? If you do and are running version 2.1.0 as it's known to cause cpu overheat, if it's the case downgrade to the previous version...
One last thing, have tried to force power down the phone (power button/volume up combo) that might fix a stuck app...

FACEBOOK MESSENGER, and LINE MESSENGER are the worse apps i have observed over the years using mobile resources.
if I were you, i would have done following with my z5p
1. Press and hold the Power button and the Volume Up button at the same time ( FIVE SECONDS MAX). The device will vibrate 3 times, release THE BUTTONS IMMEDIATELY !!!, this will soft reset your phone. leave for few minutes and restart. if it doesn't restart, plug the charger and see if its charging. Once charged, start your device.
2. I would have uninstalled many apps which i don't use. for example bloatware,
3. since my device is rooted, i have installed PURIFY with root access granted and it stops AUTO STARTING apps by default and having notification access panel. the only apps i want to have auto start i have manually screened them. this apps overall HELPS me big time. it works on NON ROOTED phones also! but not to its full potential.
The problem is that i can't make phone to start. Even when i put it to charge still doesnt indicate anything (screen is black, no vibrate, no led indication) thats why i created this thread.

if all above what me and DM said isn't helping then you must take the device to SONY TECH SHOP and let them look at your device!

You might have soft brick your phone... But you still should be able to recover it...it might take a bit longer though, your battery is completely drained...
Read this thread, it's old but should still be relevant...
You never answered my questions though, did you install or updated or did anything in particular before the phone started to act up?

No. I made settings to update only when phone is charging and is connected to wifi. Even made it to disable all data transfer while is locked. Phone itself isn't rooted and im using same apps since i bought phone.

Is your phone still completely Unresponsive?
Did you try to leave on a charge to see if it shows any sign of life (led coming up)
Go check that thread that I posted, you'll bring it back to life...
They're hard to brick unless it's an hardware problem otherwise they can take a beating trust me
Hello again.
Just want to leave a quick update:
After finally I got free time I read thread that suggested me to read and started to attempting to revive phone. It's been an hour since I put phone on charger. Still no red led. Only "hot" area is at shell that covers CPU - area that is in red circle.
Everything else is cold. CPU temperature is around 38-42°C pretty normal I would say. So how much time I should leave to charge? Last time when phone was running battery was on 100% (last Friday).
Update 2:
I measured voltage of battery and it's 2.81V
I will leave it to charge till I sleep and tomorrow will need to purchase new battery.
When I bought phone I had problems with battery but with last update from SONY I managed to use phone for 3 days with one charge (normal use - few captured pictures, an hour games, 30 minutes watching Californication on Netflix and FB and Line - less than 10 minutes).
So can you recommend me an site where I can purchase new battery (I want to be original if possible)?

Well guys I have bad news. Problem is in hardware.
After I left phone to charge over night when I woke up I unplugged charger and measured voltage of battery. The results was bad: voltage of battery was 0V. Then I unplugged battery and put phone to charge without connected battery to measure what voltage is going to battery and it was 0.61V.
So thanks again for trying to help me and encouraging to fix problem.
Early on this year i had an idea of installing nethunter on my old Nexus5X well everything was smooth untill i forgot about phone being in middle of installation and where it prompted me if i want to keep this system read only, I havent noticed that prompt and it automatically selected it as default. As nexus booted into nethunter everything seemed okay untill i launched app, phone froze started to heatup and drained whole battery. After that i charged it for few hours and still no powerup there was only red flashing light as indicator of drained battery. Pressing buttons in any order did nothing didn't even got charging up icon on screen. So i thought that i hard bricked this phone. Put it aside and few months later had an idea of taking it to scraps and mybe sell individual parts as screen, battery and body for few moneys. I unplugged battery and said to myself "its gonna power up rn, i can feel it" and it actually did. So my question here is did it fry the battery or connector on mb or just some messed up corrupted bloat preventing battery to charge up(didnt flashed it to stock yet so everything is set to read-only)
So I tried to install stock rom and realised that because i have to unplug battery it wont boot just loops endlessly.
If you don't mind you could order a cheap battery replacement and try with that one. Sounds like it fired the battery, but it could also have damaged the device (BLODed).
