Desire S Battery Question Mark and Auto Restart - HTC Desire S

Hi guys. I noticed that battery indicator on miui rom will suddenly turn into a question mark at random intervals. Also my phone will also restart itself when I remove the charger. I need professional help please.

Have you turned off the phone, removed the battery, then put the battery back in carefully and turned the phone back on?
It may just be a bad battery connection.

Yup. I have done it several times but it is still the same.

Battery drains more on standby??

My sensation actually drains battery less whe its using somehing or on. This happen on pyramid3d. And miui frm tripndroid. Illike I'll listen to mussic for 1 hour, and it will be 100 to 96. And when I let it standby, it will go to like 88 in a hour. Is this normal?

I had an issue similar to this. Every other day the battery would drain in half a day (when usually it would last a good 12 hours +)
Under the battery usage tab it was showing the phone as being awake for almost all of the time (Even though I hadn't used or touched the phone)
I think it was a Kernel issue (Correct me please if I'm wrong, just a small time n00b) As I was using the stock shipped rom but just rooted.
Anyway, upgraded now, and it seems to be ok so far! *touch wood*
Would suggest you look under the battery usage graph and see what that tells you.
Ill reply in 12 hours. Since I just ubplugged from charger

You could've installed a bad app. Faulty/bad apps will stop the phone from sleeping. Look for apps that (when you install them) list that they can prevent the phone from sleeping in the permissions list.
If you've not installed too many, remove one at a time, leave for a while, and then check battery section in Settings to see if it's no longer staying awake.
If you find the app, contact the developer through the market so they can fix it.

Also, if you have it, keep WiFi connected when in range. Uses less battery than mobile data. Switch it off when you're not connected of course.

[Q] htc sensation wont turn on

Can someone please help me? My htc sensation was working fine and all of a sudden it started freezing, so I took out the battery and put it back in. Now it won't turn on or boot into Hboot. The battery is fully charged and I even tried a different battery but still nothing. I've plugged in the phone without the battery as well and still nothing, the screen does not come on at all. Does anyone have a solution?

Hi,
I saw someone with the same problem.
He removed his sim card,left it for a while ,then switched on the phone without the sim card.
Might be worth a try.

Are you able to get a PC to recognise the phone via USB i.e. is adb working?
It sounds like a screen issue, it may be booting under this.

Hopefully its so fubar thats they cant check to see, or waste their time...
I had it on mine to, on the period that it wasnt rooted yet, just send it to HTC, its a factory defect, they can't blame it on root access.

this happened to me too for some reason too, when i try to turn it on it just vibrates every 40 seconds or so with a blank screen . i am running ordroids latest rom. oh and my theory is i short circuited the battery or something because when my phone was charging i yanked the power cord of the wall with the phone still plugged in , any ideas and/or soulutions to my problem ?
The same happened to me a few months ago and had to get it replaced with T-Mobile.

can you return it with manufacturers warranty to tmobile or is there another warranty you need
Have you tried another battery before you return it? Could be a bad battery?

Hey man saw your issue...
This happened to me about 3 months ago. I was watching a youtube video when suddenly my phone froze. I did the exact same thing. Pulled the battery, waited a few mins, popped it back in and nothing. If you have insurance on the device you can get it replaced. They completely replaced mine and it was s-off rooted! So you should have no problems at all!:good:
Mine has done that a couple of times. All I do is wait about 5 minutes then pull the battery, put it back in and then try to restart the phone. Sometimes it take 5 or 6 tries before it will reboot and even then sometimes all I get it the splash screen. Another hint is to have it plugged into the charger after you have put the battery back in. If the charging led is on then that means there is a very good chance the phone will boot

Phone shutdown unexpectedly

Please guys I need help. My phone was running smoothly with no issues before. Then I finished surfing the net after that the phone keeps on shutting down at a setting interval when am in the middle something or not. I have done some things I know to bring it back to its proper working conditions but still, no improvement and I have restored to the original backup system software because I was running on custom rom before the incident and it still happening.

Tried another battery, ejecting your sd and SIM cards or if the shut down happens with a charger plugged in? If yes then do a super wipe, flash fresh firmware and ROM then test before restoring anything, check all MD5 before flashing.
If it still shuts down with fresh everything then maybe a hardware fault, return to stock and do a warranty repair.

Try THIS fix. Maybe your battery is loose
I have not tried a new battery I will do that and see what happens next. Because I also suspect the battery, I was having 87% battery life when the phone shutdown unexpectedly and I powered it on again the battery became 13%, I think the battery is the culprit here. I will try what you said and see.

Strange of the battery to go down so fast. Yes you should probably try another battery
Ad he said try different battery . My mugen battery was behaving like that then my device turned black and I couldn't boot, no charge light was detected! I switched batteries back to Anker now my device is running fine. Strange because the mugen was a new battery but sometimes this happens. So yes definitely try another battery.

Yeah!!! You guys are great I appreciate the ideas you guys contributed. What I did is I scratch the surface of the battery and attached a small piece of paper on the back of the battery to enable it stay firmly in the housing. Since then it has not shut down and the battery is even lasting longer now. I am still observing it and I will bring a feedback later.

Phone not turning on.

Dropped my phone a few days ago. It was all good until this morning.
I charged it all night and I wake up with it at 1percent but the charge light being green. So I restart my phone and it never turned back on.
My girlfriend has the same phone so I used hee battery.... still nothing.
I have insurance but my phones rooted... but will that effect anything if they SOMEHOW figure out that it is?
Or is it okay since this is a hardware issue?
And does anyone have an idea to fix this before I go to t mobile today?
Thanks.

Sent by my feau gee

One x battery drain when turned off.

Hi all. I have a problem with my one x for the past month. For example, last night I turned off my phone while fully charged. About 10 hours layer I turned it on and it had discharged 50%. This has happened quite a lot over the past month. When I leave it turned on, the battery drain is normal. I have factory reset my phone and deleted apps, but nothing helps. Does anyone have any suggestions what might be wrong? Thanks.

Do you have fastboot option turned on in settings>power? See screenshot.

It was turned on, so I turned it off. I hope this makes a difference. I just do not know why it drained so quickly while turned off. Thanks a lot.
Sent from my HTC One X using xda app-developers app
Technically when that option is turned on, the phone doesn't actually shut down when you shut it down, it goes into a hibernate mode. Btw round here we push the thanks button

Thanks for the info and sorry, that was an oversight on my part. Cheers.

I generally do not turn my phone off. But I got a new HTC one and have been using it for 2 months. I turned off my one x this morning'sng after work at a full charge, when I turned it on, it had gone down To 31% remaining. I still can not figure out what is causing such a power drain. I did uncheck the setting you mentioned last night, but it did not help. I am gong to go to a Rogers store and see what they might suggest. Thanks again.
