thanks a lot for ur prompt reply dude... ya will try that surely.. but any idea y this is caused? could it be a battery caliberating issue or battery itself gone.. ?
May i answer to this? @karthik_sa2 : I had the same problem about 1 month ago.
This is what happened to me.
I plugged the phone to an ac charger, leaving it on.I think i may have left open some battery hungry apps like a game, and the ac charger could not deliver enough power to the phone.The battery continued to discharge untill 0, but the phone remained on for a reason.After 3-4 minutes, the battery reached a critical level and the phone shut down.
I left the phone plugged to an wall charger for about 1 and a half days.Then i was able to start the phone in bootloader.Happy ending!

No, my led was dead.
After 1,5 days , it charged 3%.At least this is the info the ROM was telling me .
Don't worry about the led, just leave the phone charging for 1-2 days.Then try oppening it on bootloader.

ok sure... thanks a lot again
I read this post somewhere and it perfectly worked for me...thanks for all the help again..
"Be paitient, Plug your phone in and give it a minimum of 20 mins charge even though it's flashing.
Unplug the phone and hold both the VOL up and VOL down buttons together for at least 2 mins then release.
Plug the phone back in.. don't worry if it's starts flashing again just be paitent it will I guarantee stop flashing a red led and begin charging to show a constant red led..
By holding thew vol up and vol down buttons you will reset the charging circuit..
The reason your phone has started flashing is because it's gone too far into a discharge...
JUST DON'T PANIC and stay calm.. show a little paitence and all will be well...." :victory:

Name: Galaxy Note II Ceramic White
Model: GT-N7100 16 GB
Launcher: TouchWiz
Rooted: Yes
Age: Around 6 months, maybe more
This happened few weeks ago, so I am writing from memory.
I went to bed with half battery remaining. I put on my usual alarm and fell asleep. I woke up in the morning without alarm, my phone was dead. I just assumed that battery was dead and tried charging. After charging for few minutes I tried to turn it on, and nothing happened.
Things I have tried:
Charging the phone through the wall
Charging the phone through an USB connected to a PC
Tried the above with 2 different cables
Removing and inserting battery
Borrowing and using my friends battery (same model)
After this I finally gave it to service and it returned yesterday. They did not fix it, since I bought it online from Germany and I am living currently in Sweden and do not have an international warranty card.
One thing was different after it came back from service. When I plug in the phone to charge, it turns on and displays this weird/distorted pattern.
Cannot post a picture due to new account restrictions, maybe I could PM pictures to someone else so that person could post them here?
I will try to describe. It is white and gray pixel groups scattered all around the screen. And the screen is completely filled with them. Kinda like bricks in a case.
But now I was able to run Odin mode, or downloading mode, I am not exactly sure how it is called.
It says this:
ODIN MODE
PRODUCT NAME: GT-N7100
CUSTOM BINARY DOWNLOAD: No
CURRENT BINARY: Samsung Official
SYSTEM STATUS: Custom
Unfortunately, I was unable to start recovery mode.
Other quirks:
Not sure if it happened before, but it stays on, without battery as long as it is charging
If it is charging, it is impossible to turn it off with the power key, no matter how long I hold it
Sometimes, when trying to start Odin Mode, someones a new images appears on a screen. Instead of a usual distortion, there is just a black field with many green and blue pixels scattered all around the screen.
Any help would be very appreciated.
Sorry if this was posted before, but I am not familiar with the terminology, so if someone could at least tell me how is my problem called or could direct me what I should search for, it would be very nice too.
Same Proble With my phone..if u got solution plzzz tell me

i think you bricked it try restoring using this method
http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/mobile-ph...e-2-from-rooted-to-factory-settings-50010623/
Even i had exactly the same problem
i got the same problem. even when i used phone only over wifi and after 20 days of buying this phone.i got this problem. distorted color and cant boot. only can go to odin download mode. or can see galaxy note ii text in black background.
since its within warranty gave to samsung care. they told they would replace the motherboard.
after lot of searching i found this issue comes in gt-n7100 16gb model.......
Users reported it's due to insane memory chip. which comes faulty in this model. samsung least bothered about resolving problem in that model. but provides repair free within warranty and charges later...
Hi to all, i have been using note 2 (not rooted) for past 1 year and i'm happy about it. But recently i have faced an unexceptional problem , a few days back i was testing google camera app, i was testing different modes for example panaroma mode and when my cell was processing the image it's screen suddenly went black and it started booting up, i was amazed but then i thought it must have been some issue with the software But my phone got stuck on the booting loop, as soon as the samsung logo appears it starts the whole booting procedure again. i tried different things but nothing helped.( i have two batteries) so i replaced the one which i was using during that session with the other one and now this time my phone booted up properly, then i charged the culprit battery in external note 2 charging kit ,normally it takes 3 hours but this time it took 6 hours for the complete charging ,when i again tried with the culprit battery my phone got stuck again in the boot loop since that day i have been trying to boot my phone with that battery but nothing has helped .. while my phone is working and booting properly on the spare battery so kindly help whats wrong with the battery.
Lately many batteries malfunction activities been going on. It's strange. It seems like something (software) is bugging the batteries or simply just the old ones dying. ..There is nothing one can do when the battery is out.

Had that issue with my other battery. It's probably a battery fault. You can throw (or recycle ) it now.
N7105 rocking AOSB with AGNi kernel,
Click "Thanks" if I was of any help!
On the Sony PSP there was a nice app which was reading the information from your battery. Simple info but it was helpful for creating Pandora. Is there no app on android which could do this from recovery? Someone who have his battery bugged could try to read that information and check why could those problems occur.
Edit : now I remember, to create the so called Pandora battery to the battery eprom has be written serial number ffffffff and after that you can't use your battery anymore in normal mode. It just didn't boot.
Or maybe those batteries just dying.

I have galaxy tab s wifi 10.5
I bought it from Kuwait about 7 months ago.after about 1 month I begin to face many problems with it such as:-
1-the battery empty very fast it going down from 100 to 80 to 50 and ect.
When I connect it with the charger I found that it's after 8 hours,only got 20% and when I take off the charger,it's directly turn off the device.you can say that the device works only when connected to charger.
I send it back to the manufacture and told them that there is a problem with battery and after 2 days they called me to get my device back saying that the problem only with firmware and it's ok now.
2- I begin to use it and after about 3 days, I found Avery strange issue
That the home button,back button and recent app button dosent work and the only work when I shake the device or put it on the screen and put it back again or use the device with the book cover.
3-also when the battery reach to 10% and connect it with the charger and try to use the device while charging, it turn off automatically and show the sign of battery charging on the screen and don't want to turn on again untill I disconnect the charger from the device but when I try to charge it from the PC, it dosent turn off and show the battery on the screen.
I tried to install another country firmware but still have the same problems here.
Could anyone pleassssssssssssse help me

If you've even tried firmware from another country it really isn't fixable, you can either replace battery if you can find another one or send it back pal.

Really I don't know if it's a hardware problem(battery) or a software problem(firmware)
Also what is your openion with the buttons issues(is it software problem or hardware)

To be honest you've knocked the nail on the head with it being hardware, I would say when doing a full factory reset is downloading full factory image from sammobile and flashing tar file through Odin if still problems then hardware...too many things going wrong at the same time cooincidently.
Hello, I have a Galaxy Note II sgh-t889. The phone worked perfect until I recently flashed it to Android 6 with cynogen mod. The phone worked fine for a few weeks, now the phone only powers on when connected to a charger. When removed from charged it goes back to the Samsung note II logo screen and won't boot past. I don't think it's a battery issue as I can boot in bios and it shows the battery is %95 full. It will sit on the logo screen until charger is plugged in, then will boot fine to OS. I've factory reset multiple times to no avail. I've read other forums of users who experienced similar issues and have narrowed it down to a possibly corrupt flash. The problem being, when connected to my pc the phone won't boot to home screen, it just sits on the logo screen. (So Odin does not detect the phone) The solution I was told is to flash it back to stock/oem rom. The problem is I can't get it to bboot to home screen when connected to pc, only on wall charger. If someone could please give me some insight, I would be more than grateful. I don't have the money atm to buy a new phone, so my only option is to try and get this fixed. Also I don't have an external sd. Can someone point me in the right direction of what to do ? I'm so stumped and I can't stand having to pack my phone around on the charger all the time...
