Hi all
Meanwhile I have installed the ICS rom on my i9000,
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1398223&page;=29
which is incredible, my i9000 is never as great as it is now.
However, today I have discovered a problem.
I cannot power off my phone now.
Every time when it shut down,
I come back to life after 5-10 seconds when I plug the charge into my i9000.
All I want is to shut it down and recharge it.
Could anyone help me on this issue?
Thanks~

Hey all,
So I bought an essentially unused Nexus One about 2 months ago. It came with froyo, and a day or so after I got it and turned it on (T-mobile btw) it updated to 2.2.1-partial or something. A couple weeks later it notified me that system update 2.3.3 was available (woot!). So download.....install.....reboot......problem.
So basically, now almost every time the phone boots up, it shows the static X for a bit, and then when it tries to switch to the animated particle-attractor X, the display just shuts off and nothing shows up. It apparently boots ok and everything else works fine: I can press the power button, and swipe-unlock...even answer phone calls....but the display stays off. I can eventually coax it into turning on the display again by numerous rounds of taking out the battery and reinserting with luck and random voodoo sprinkled in, but I have no idea what's going on or how to fix it. I've found a couple other cases by googling around, but no fixes.
So is this something people are aware of? Will the 2.3.4 update fix it? I would try to root/install CM7, but while I can get into fastboot, going from there to recovery is a crapshoot because of the display issue. So any help would be awesome, thanks in advance.
To re-emphasize, this is completely stock Gingerbread on a never-rooted/modded Nexus One.
2.3.4
Just got notified of the 2.3.4 update today, downloaded, rebooted......same problem.
I have had my white Skyrocket just a day short of 1 week. Today is the first day it has just randomly shut off and three times so far. Has anyone else experienced this? I was talking on it for about an hour with 90% charge, ended the call, set it down, and picked it up 30 mins. later and it was off. When I woke up this morning I watched some Youtube, checked some emails, and 10 mins. later off again. I had to take out the battery and turn it on. I'm rooted with the ICS rom.
Try flashing the stock kernel and see if it persists.

Most likely it's the Kernel. Flash stock-ish kernel and that should fix the issue.
I will give that a try then.....thanks
Did it work?
I also have the same issue. Rooted with Sky ICS 2.3.6 and my phone just randomly turns off from time to time. I'll be use it and then it turns off and the power button doesn't work. Have to take it out of my Otter Box Defender case, take the battery cover off and pull the battery and put everything back together.
AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket
Sky ICS 2.3.6 ROM
CPU OC Kernel
YES! I'm on my 2nd SR, since release for same reason.
My first Skyrocket began repeatedly restarting, a few days after purchase. I thought I had the problem solved, after attributing the issue to an extra 16gb micro sd card, I took from my t-mobile Galaxy S 4G. But now my new Skyrocket, less than a week old, began the same **** 2 days ago - ALSO, after installing an extra 4gb card i had. WTF? The screen suddenly flashes white and the phone starts a continual process of restarting, until I'm able to get it to factory reset.
Well I flashed back to the "stockish" Kernal and i have not had a single random power off in over a week. Thanks.
I recommend using the CM7 + KA_G CM7 kernel. Its awesome. Way better then stock + I don't experience random sleep of death like I do with regular rom + DA_G overclock kernel.
Thanks for reply. It's been fine since my previous post, before which, it took 4 to 5 hours for me to get it to remain on, long enough to complete a factory reset.
Additionally, I'm wondering if downloading/installing "warez" for extended periods, most of which I'll just uninstal (tech addiction), could be reason for the shut downs??
I never had this problem with my first phone.
But my replacement phone has powered off a few times. It does have an SD card installed.
A couple times while unplugging/removing it from my car dock (3rd party charger). It just powers off. And I have to manually power it back on again.
And several times while plopping it lightly down on the table or pressing/holding the phone in a weird way.
Also once or twice while ending a phone call.
I'll prolly take it back soon. I'm outside of 30 days though, so I'm in no rush as I'll just get a refurbed phone I'm sure, and have to take my chances on getting one with a crap screen. While my current phone has a perfect screen (no vertical lines or blobs).
I've had the problem with custom ROM's, kernels and also on more than one reflash of stock ROM/Kernel.

Trade phones? Mine has lines, but it probably has the best hardware out of all skyrockets.
1.89GHz stable, no problems with any ROM's, no SoD problems, nothing.

JK lol, I love my phone. <3
he guys!
i need a little help and i can't seem to find a thread that might help me.
i have an htc desire (root+s-off) and two days ago tried to flash a new rom. and as i was already at it flashed the newest radio version and an sd-alignment, because i had just before had had to flash the original shipped rom because my phone didn't react anymore. so i did the root and s-off again, flashed all three zips and rebooted. after that my display went black and nothing happened for a while so i removed the battery and tried to restart the phone but it didn't. i tried to connect it to my computer and it doesn't recognize the device anymore.
either i removed the battery too early and bricked it or it was a bad idea to flash 3zips at the same time.
has anybody encountered this before and is there sth i can do?
any help will be greatly appreciated.
Can you boot into the bootloader through Vol - and Power button?
unfortunately no.
device does not react at all. i can push any button but the phone stays dead. screen stays black, no LED flashing, doesn't vibrate, nothing!
Maby its time to part as equals and donate it to the dev team?
Do you want to help out developers? Got a broken device?
the desire won't help them because it has a snapdragon cpu.
is there really no possibility to fix this?
maybe a too simple solution, but could the battery be dead or empty?
since you get absolutely no reponse...
I considered that too but the battery was NOT empty when the phone died.
I thought it might still be that the battery is just broken but I read that when you take out the battery and connect the phone to your computer or plug in the charger the LED still flashes. And with my phone it doesn't.
Your led won't flash if your phone is off. Try taking out the battery and plugging the phone in to the charger and see if it turns on.

How long do you let it charge before trying to turn on? If its right dead, then you should probably leave it plugged in for ten minutes or so before trying to turn it on.

But if I take out the battery how can it charge?
I thought if I take out the battery and plug it in, it should come back to life immediately?
But if you think that could help, I'll be happy to try.
So let me sum this up to be sure I got it right:
I take out the battery, plug it in, wait for a couple minutes and then try turning it on, right?
YOu should take the battery by pluging it at least 5 - 10 minute for sure it is already charging then try to turn on your phone again, this might work
im not sure the phone will work at all without the battery in place (haven't tested)
But i think that Kenny means, putting the battery in and letting it charge for a little while before trying.

The phone will work while plugged in without the battery. But try what Kenny suggested.

I bricked my HTC desire S. When i open it will stuck to bootloop, drained the battery, i cannot charge the phone. it always turn off.
Can someone help me fix this?
Hello,
Since about the last month every time my battery dies completely it takes for ever (at least a couple of hours) before I can turn it back on.
When I plug it into the charger the orange light that is supposed to come on when it charges doesnt come on.
I have unlocked the bootloader and am running the Viper One S rom with CWM.
Do you guys think this is a software problem or is it the Hardware ?
Thanks for the help ! :laugh:

Ya the phone just don't like running out of power and you lucky something worse hasn't happened.
Today my phone had been shutting itself off, but since I was on trying a new also rom, I figured probably just a kernel issue I'll re flash later. Come to the end of the day after getting some charge in the car then putting it down, it's powered down again after have been good for the past 6 hours. Pushing the power button didn't get anything. Charging light is solid red.
Anyone got ideas or clues ?
Solved: was just my rom not liking me. Adb reboot worked
