G3 stuck in decryption - G3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
somtime ago I encrypted my G3. I wanted to remove that now. So I started the decryption and everything seemed normal and the decryption went up 17% but not any further. The progressbar was still moving, but didn't gain any percent. That state lasted for about 6 hours, until I last checked the phone one hour ago. When i checked the phone now, the phone still says "ENCRYPTION - wait until your phone is encrypted, 17% done", but the progressbar isn't moving any more.
Any tips, what to do now?
Best regards,
Manfred

[Q] Phone won't shut down (automatically switches on again)

Hi everybody
I hoped you could help me with this issue that I've had for several days now.
My HTC Desire HD won't shut down after I flashed the CM7 RC4, instead it would automatically reboot. I then full wiped it and reflashed another ROM (revolution hd 3.3) but the problem still persists.
I've read similar threads where OP advised to change the date then take the battery out for one night or stuff like that. I've tried it all, and it's still there !
So do you have any clue to fix this ?
Thank you very much !
After you took out your battery for the night, did the date in the phone get reset to something old once you put the battery back ?
Well I have done this with 2 methods :
- 1st, I changed the date to an old date (before the hour change in Europe), and then pulled out the battery for several hours. When I put the battery back in, the date was still old and not updated.
- 2nd, I left the automatic date, and it would stay the same after I pulled out and put the battery in back again.
In the 2nd case, the phone would automatically boot once the battery is inserted, even when I don't push the power button!
In the 1st case, if I re-change the date to the correct one afterwards (even if it's not on automatic), the phone won't shut down again...
Oh, okay I see what you mean
I read through http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1014302
So you have to get the phone reset itself due to lack of internal power. So I just have to pull the battery out longer...
It should work by then..
it's quite impressive how many people say: "didn't work for me" and after a while come back saying: "ohhhh now that i pulled out mt battery for 15hrs it's worked"
the reason i said that is because, actually, there is no right number of hours that you must stay without the battery in, form me it worked with 5 hours, but for the most people it was not enought... so if you tried 10 hours, try 15 hours! =o)
the fact of you set your date to before march 27 and it shut down properly shows that the problem is the same! =oP

HTC One X Powering Off Right After Booting

Hello all,
Let me start off the message by mentioning that I have been a (altogether) very happy user of cyanogen mods with my last 3 android phones.
The last and current (but it seems not for long) is an HTC One X, which is over 2 years old.
This poor thing has gone through so many ROMs that I have lost count.
It is currently running on a stable cm10.2.1, upgraded from cm10.1.3.
I have experienced sudden power offs when there were obvious battery drain, battery overheat, weird app installation issues, especially since moving to cm 10.2.1, which also caused the GPS to stop getting any satellite signals.
However, the phone has recently (a couple of weeks) leveled up into a bizarre mode:
It will power off all of a sudden, the battery levels are not low 65-75%, so I would assume it was just some process in the background, and go ahead and start the phone up again to go and check through the logs, or even disable/cleanup dodgy overreacting apps. But to my surprise, the phone passes the quietly brilliant screen, as well as the CM logo with the circling arrow and as soon as you can see the background it shows Powering off - the phone is shutting down.
For those brief couple of seconds I can see the battery indicator (top right corner) showing a small part of it in red, letting me believe the battery's status is critically low. So I let the phone charge for half an hour, and start it up again, with the same result, once the device goes past the logo and the background shows, the Powering off message appears again. The battery indicator is still showing a small red circulating section of the whole.
The next step was to go and check in recovery mode. The battery on the TWRP screen shows almost 70%, and this leads me to assume there is something wrong with the battery. But the phone is not turning off for as long as in recovery mode. I still haven't ruled out the battery issue, and will test it when I get delivered and replace the spare one I have ordered.
Reading through forums and other threads, there were people complaining that they had the same issues when the phone was trying to change from 2G to 3G and the other way around, so I removed the sim card and have restarted the phone, still the same result, powering off after boot.
I also reflashed 10.2.1 thinking that a clean installation will help getting rid of some new app/processes that might be causing this, but exactly the same powering off occurs after booting. The same happens even after a factory reset.
Usually, after half an hour of inactivity the phone would start up normally, but today it has been several hours and the behavior is not improving.
At this point I can't get into the phone other than on recovery, I can't copy from/into its storage anything, not even the nandroid backups I regularly do (and which stupidly I haven't copied over to an external storage). I could try reflashing some stock image, but even that I don't have on the internal storage.
So as you see, I am bit stuck. Phone will not stay ON long enough for me to connect to my machine and save my backups, or load any new stuff.
If you have any other suggestions other than this, or perhaps a workaround to what I have already tried, I would extremely appreciate it.
Cheers,
Mad
I have the same problem..
I have tried everything, but nothing helped me.
Now my battery is 0% and i cant do nothing - cant charge it, cant boot in bootloader.
Something heppened when you changed the bettery?

[Q] [q] Hard bricked? Won't turn on, won't connect, small signs of life

Hi,
I turned my phone off last night before going to sleep, it had 40% battery left. When I tried to turn it on this morning it didn't do anything. Even when trying to charge it the LED did not light up.
the only sign of life I got out of it was a screen with the "battery charging", looked like it was charged around 50%. However, it did not, and still does not respond to the hardware keys...
Any solutions? Or am I simply out of luck.
Extra info:
Stock rom, rooted.
Already had some sort of problem described in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-note-2/help/phone-freezes-awake-stock-custom-rom-t2908503
Thanks in advance!
May be you should try wiping data (lock screen & stuff) from samsung online site (if you have registered).. Not sure if it work.. Just a suggestion..
Somehow I don't have any registered devices.. (I did register it though, just because of the dropbox storage bonus)
Edit: My device randomly booted up, had it plugged in to the charger all day (about 6 hours), 47% charged right now.
going to make a backup using titanium and flashing stock via odin, see if it helps.
This is reaaally weird though... :silly:

Random Reboots (Unable to receive call, after reboot loop at boot loader) SOLVED

After having headache with this problem for last one month and lost hours of testing, i finally found a problem so lets explain symptoms, maybe it will help someone.
I am using CM since first version and as all nightly version have some bugs i had them as well. So i had random reboot from time to time and i thought it's just CM bugs.
For last 1 month reboots happen most often and always when i receive or make a call.
Phone just reboot and loop at boot loader. After removing battery for few seconds phone can normally boot.
3 days ago phone started to reboot even with some heavier app's but never if i disable network. Reboots start to happen even if phone is in my pocked and i exit elevator (drop network and get again).
I tried clean installation of CM12.1, Clean installation of CM13, Wiping internal storage, Clean installation of Cloudy ROM, Removing SIM card, removing SD card i even moved back to stock ROM.
Installed more then 30 app's for monitoring everything and noting show any error, problem etc. While doing all this, i realized that this problems never happen when phone is at charger. Again, installation of 20 apps for battery calibration, voltage monitoring, logs etc. and non of them showed any problem.
Battery was regullary fully charged but noticed that it happen only with heavier usage (have call, copy bigger file, start game).
After doing that tests for entire day, phone refused to pass boot loader with battery but boot normally with charger.
So i purshesed new battery last night, phone booted normally, there is no reboots or any issue at all. Now i can compare that new battery is better since it lost only 1% of battery over the night but old battery didnt show up any problems at all. It's normally to not be that good after 1 year of usage but I didnt had any drainings, it was regularry charged etc.
So if you have similiar problem, to go to some service where you can try with new battery before buying one.
I have the exact same problem .
It driving me crazy! I will try to get new one, and reply as soon as possible ! I hope it will work.
the phone just showed me that The battery that I was using it for one year is fake -_-
Yep, same issues, phone was rebooting sometimes (at the begin, only a few reboots, only during the launch of "big" activities like GPS, or photos) then a few weeks later
I needed to connect it to the charger otherwise, after a few seconds, the phone used to reboot in loop... Until it dies...
Buying a new battery resolved all the issues, no more reboots at all
