Does anyone else have this overhearing problem in this specific area?

Overheating may cause by cracked battery connector, common problem in Samsung tablets.
Re solder the black battery connector will fix this problem.
This connector was re soldered by adding more solders to its six pins to fix quick discharge, overheating, burning smell.

How's your battery life? If the battery is starting to lose capacity the internal voltage regulator will work overtime to compensate. My tablet was doing just this and was almost too hot to hold and I was getting horrible battery life (45 minutes screen on time kind of horrible).
One new battery install later and the heating problems is gone and I'm back to 8 hour SOT.

If running an extension cord max of 10A with a load more than 10A, it will get hot even melted by overheat.
The same thing happens to cracked battery connector, the main board will get hot when its solder joints partly connected to battery.

I am in trouble about battery.
Repeating "Charging" and "Discharging" without plug-in.
It is the main reason why it is so fast to be out of battery.
My battery sensor is something wrong.
Please tell me how to make my galaxy nexus recognize ALWAYS discharging.
Even if it is pug-in, it is ok that it recognizes "discharging".
help me.
Factory reset or get a new phone
If you are rooted, I would consider trying to rest your battery stats. There are several apps for this, and you can also do it in cwm

You need a new USB-board. Mine was not repairable, I had got some water in my usb-port. Not covered by warranty off course. A repair would cost me 150-200 Euro.
So I bought a new board online and exchanged it myself. Cost: 35 Euro. But you could most likely find it cheaper. Took me 15 minutes to fix.

Same thing happened to me. No water damage, no dirt, no filth, never been dropped. I take exceptional care of my electronics, I'm pretty ocd actually. I had to send it to Samsung for warranty because I didnt know the cause. And to answer your question, yes that's why your battery is draining.

Thank you very much
Thank you very much.
I never know that so many people are in same trouble.
Then now I do is Factory Reset.
I think it was caused by water.
It flowed into mine.
Second, I will buy the repair parts.
Thank you very much.

be careful if you wanna repair on your own.
my gnex had discharging issue, but shows lightning bolt icon at the top.
i ordered the part, and replaced it. but still has the issue.
factory reset didn't help.
Does samsung still take my gnex even though i opened it?
Hi guys, so a few weeks back, I experienced reboots and I classified them as 'random'. Thought maybe it was TouchWiz so I changed to CM11. Still had reboots. The only way to stop them was either put it on charge as it rebooted or leave it off for a while. I thought, maybe my battery percentage is just wrong.
Then after a while on CM11, the issue was gone. And it was, until today. I downloaded my games that I had before and I experienced reboots again and I thought maybe it was just this specific game (Sky Force 2014). So I tried Need For Speed. And it rebooted after a while in the game.
Every time I play these games, the device gets very hot. They are quite high graphic games and obviously require a lot of process power. Do you think that these reboots are caused because the tab overheats? Has anyone been in a similar situation?
I don't live in a hot country?
Thanks

sounds like a hardware issue. but it could be caused by glitchy software too!
a few weeks back i had an "overheat" issue but it didn't get so bad that the device started rebooting.
i noticed it pretty early on and although i'm not sure which APP caused it, it hasn't repeated since then.
i confirmed that my overheat issue was due to CPU: when i checked my cpu status in "CPU-Z" i found that two of my four cores were "locked" at 2.3GHz and never idled, even if i closed all the apps on my device! very strange.
maybe you should install CPU-Z too and see what it reports about your CPU cores. it also has a temperature monitor, but it only reports battery temperature.
I'm having exactly the same problem. Any guess on how to fix it?

Most of Samsung tablet's overheat problem is causing by cracked battery connector.
Resolder the battery connector will fix this issue. Imagine this, you're running an application which requires 20 amperes wire on a power cord which can only handle 10 amperes, it will overheat and burn. The same thing happens when current runs through cracked solder joints of battery connector.

This is an example, more solders added to secure this connector which is prone to crack in most Samsung tablets
This overheating problem I just fixed yesterday by resoldering the battery connector, this fix is applied
to all Samsung tablets as they use the same connector
Hi my tablet is crashing every time the battery is lower than 80% (it turns off immediately) end keeps crashing every time i restart it and begin using it after 2 or 3 seconds and the battery drains every restart .Is it surely a battery problem or it could be caused by anything else?

Probably you have a cracked battery connector, common problem of Samsung tablet. Re solder will fix this problem, you can verify by removing the back cover, apply directly pressure on the black battery connector and turn your tablet on; if it works, problem solved, just find someone or a repair shop to help you to re solder the battery connector.
Don't forget to fix the white battery connector too, it's also the source of problem

Unplugged and re-plugged battery helps to solve problem, then you may need to do this little fix of the white battery connector. I had one battery which didn't take charge, after this simple fix , it works normal again.

You need a thin knife and magnified glass to do this fix, push the opening as close as possible.

Hello,
I have several Tab Pro's that are all having the same problem. I have charged the devices to 100% then when it sits for a few days it will not turn back on. I have plugged it back in and it show 0%.
This is what i have done to try and find the issue...
1. I have reset all cables
2.Tried different batteries (USED)
3.Re-Rom with ODIN and Factory reset
4.Checked the pins on battery terminal for bad solder contacts
5.Waiting on new batteries
Now the interesting part. I charged 2 devices to 100% then disconnected the battery from the Logic board so I could check to see if the battery is discharging on its own. After 3 days I reconnected the battery terminal and tried to turn it back on. They will not power on, then I plug in the charger and battery icon shows up with 100% and then I'm able to turn it back on. Any ideas what the issues with these are I have about 8 of them all doing the same thing?
Thank you,
The battery doesn't discharge on its own so fast like your description. I have a Tab Pro 12.2 , which is off almost 3 months, when turns on it still keep the charge at 99%

The problem is from the cracked battery connector, it will cause intermittent connection. Trust me, remove the back cover, use your hand to press directly on the battery connector while turning it on, it might work depending how bad the crack is. All you need is resolder the battery connector.

I have tried to resolder a few of them and they still do not turn on or they discharge the battery. I have a few that I charged the batteries up to 100% and disconnected them from the battery terminal on the logic board over the weekend. They all still do not turn on, then I connect the charger and the battery icon shows up with 100% then I can turn it on. I have tried what you said and pushed on the terminals on all of the ones I have and not one will turn on. I'm starting to think there is a issue with the power management chip on the board. Has anyone tried to replace any of these?
I have had issues with SM-t/p900 12.2 pros that had the issues you are talking about, not charging, flickering screen, and the terminals needed to be resoldered. I could actually push the pins up and down. The SM-t520 pins are solid and do not move.
Hello everyone. My question is related to the pin connector and battery life:
3 months ago, i though it was moment for battery replacement of my S 8.4, but in the process i broke the 6-pin connector placed in the board. So, I tried to deal with it and charge the new battery once, with the connector slightly detached and badly soldered. It went bad since wasn't charging normally, i screwed badly the connector so had to replace it.
I ordered the new connector with an official tech support. Connector took few weeks to arrive (i live in Chile). I did the microsoldering with a lot of troubles, and after watching tutorials and buying soldering stuff, practicing and studying the possible troubles i could face, i finally did it (see the pic). Anyway I'm skeptic about what i just did XD (btw i used soldering paste for smd, really cool stuff)

Now it's charging, after 3 hrs it went from 20 - 90%. My questions are 2:
1) considering that many experts point out that lithium battery's first charge is extremely important for technical reasons (SEI forming on first charge cycle; non full charge leads to fading over time), should i replace my battery soon, if i stored at 20% for 2 months?
2) how do i know if i soldered correctly the connector, should i consider the time it takes (normally charging cycle was around 3 hrs 30 from 0 - 100%)?
Thanks!
need help with soldering
Hi buddy , have a similar needs as yours, except in my case i did not break the connector , it broke by itself after a few months , guess a bad solder at the samsung factory itself .
So now coming to the point , i ordered a new connector and was thinking to solder it myself as service center was charging a hefty price for a small repair . Could you please guide me as to what all is required to do it properly .
li-ion battery`s dont need a forming charge on first charge.
Dont run the battery too low as the battery can fail, I don't go below 20% (I use a charge level alarm)
I don't charge above 80%(I use a charge alarm) , I have charged to 100% only 7 time in 28months(only after flashing or upgrades to calibrate the battery gauge)
i have used my T800 every day and no problems so far.
John.
Im also having the same problem...
The connector pin just came off from the motherboard...In my case..im so afraid to do the microsoldering,however i tried “reflow solder” heat up the connecter while sticking it on the motherboard for few seconds...then let it cool...yes it was succesfully connected..but its not strong enough...it just came off again when i grabbed the tablet to put on its backcover...The main reason why im scared to do the microsoldering is what if i accidently damaged other components in the motherboard...is there any other way to solve this issue other replacing the motherboard...
