First off I am new to the xda forum's and am sorry if this subject has been covered already, if so please point me n the right direction. Ok. I am having a charging problem with my EVO. When phone is on and charger plugged in it will not display that it is charging and will even prompt to charge or die when meter gets low. When phone is off it charges normally. I am running a custom rom. Thundershock. So I'm guessing this is a kernal problem but didn't want to go changing it till I maybe got more info from someone who knows more then me.. that could b anyone. If u can help me at all tux alot.
Hello guys,
I'm facing a very troublesome problem,
Whenever I plug in my GT-N71000 to my charger or the computer, the phone shows that error "Charging paused. Battery temperature too low", or if the phone is off it shows the yellow exclamation point with a thermometer.
I know that must be a really common thread here at XDA-Dev but I have searched the entire internet to find out a solution for this. What have I already done:
When it appeared for the first time I could take the battery off and put it again and sometimes it would charge whenever the phone wanted (I didn't know before that Note II had personality). I downloaded apps that monitor the battery temperature and it showed -20°C. Really freaky. Then I moved to another country and sometimes it worked. I opened it up cleaned and I could charge for some time, then it came back. I went to the Samsung Service and replaced the charging mechanism and the phone worked fine until last friday after a drunken night when this problem showed again!
It happens even with other batteries, so battery problem is ruled out. I opened the phone again and checked the PCB it looks fine, doesn't have any damage of water or any corrupt paths.
I even rooted, deleted battery stats.bin . Reflashed to stock and it's no use. What makes me believe it is some hardware problem with the thermistor that reads the battery temperature, since it was stuck in -20, -19.
Is there a way to reprogram the kernel or whatever coding is responsible for this reading to fool the phone that the battery temperature is at normal levels, so this way I could charge and use my phone normally? Has anyone any solution that I haven't tried? I want to try everything before going to Samsung again because I'm really sure they will say they have to change the whole PCB.
Thank you very much
Well, just a quick update.
I haven't found a solution yet. I bought an external charger so I can at least use my phone but haven't arrived yet. I searched and searched and the only place that I found about anyone having some sort of solution is on this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=47008088 .
But i have no idea how to patch that kind of code in my phone, nor I know if it is on the Kernel.
Anyone might wanna help? Thanks!
Hi Everyone!
This is my first post here, so don't get mad at me =).
So, I bought the Arc S LT18i from a random guy in the internet, he said that the problem with the phone is something with software, becouse he said it sometimes takes ages to boot.
My problem is that it wont charge at all. If phone is turned off and i plug the charger, it shows on the screen the empty battery and a lightning above the battery and no notification LED's at all. This doesn't change even I charge it for a day.
When it's on a charger I sometimes manage to boot it to a "desktop" but there it also says Charging(0%) and that doesn't change until the phone shutsdown by itself. I managed to go to check batteryinfo in the phone and it said: Battery status: Unknow. I Have bought a new battery. But all my batteries are empty so I can't flash it or anything. The computer recognizes the phone.
So what do you think? Is it a software or hardware problem? And what should i do?
Thanks!
Hi, i have a Tab S 8.4 and I was using it and suddenly the tablet turns off, I tryed to tun on but nothing, it was totally dead, with 63% of de battery remaining and with no apps installed, just made a factory reset 1h ago, i tried every key combination to turn on but nothing, totally dead, when I get home I connect it to the charger and the charging screen appears so it wasnt bricked, i disconected it because it was al 63% as before, i used it all day and with 24% again, off and the only way to turn on was charging it
Now again, i was trying to play Lara Croft Go and it turns off 3 times with this game, so i uninstalled it, try with Geometry Dash and it was working until I turn off the screen and turn on again and after 3 seconds the tablet was off again...
I dont really care since I can turn on charging, but I dont like this solution because obvious reasons, someone can tell me if it is a firmware bug? My firmware is:
LRX22G.T700XXU1BOF2
I had no warranty so i dont really know what to do, anyone knows about something similar? Maybe its the battery?
Also I cant enter to bootload mode, I tried with all combination of keys during boot and it always turns on normally, what exactly I have to do to enter to bootloader?
Search the forum for battery connector.

thank you, I searched on google by using another keywords and I found nothing wich describes my problem, but thay seem to be the problem as I read.
i really though it was be a software problem, if it is the battery connector how does it "autofix" when I plug in? And how does it always crash on some apps? Maybe when an app uses too much energy it crashes, and when I plug the charger it restarts the circuit? Dont really understand
Anyway if people say its the solution I will try, thank you very much
It's a known issue on your model. There are several posts on the forum regarding this.
There are even tutorials on YouTube how to fix it.
Thank You, any way to repair without buying another battery? People say to fix the connection by closing the female pins but they are tooooo small so there is no way I could make it fit thight, by the way, If I buy an original samsung battery how I know it wont happen again to the new one?
Other peoples tablet reboot, mine just turns off and gets dead until I plug the charger, there is no way to tun on without the charger, Im thinking to buy an external battery such as Xiaomi's one , but im not sure if it will woke up the tablet whe its off, someone have an external battery can test for me if the tablet turns on when you connect the battery?
Thank you e

Somehow i managed to turn it on with the old battery but now it wont charge anything.
I checked with the app Ampere and it tells me that battery condition is "cold" and that the battery temperature is -30 celsius which is very unlikely.
Just to make things clear im using stock everything, havent change anything to it.
