[SOLVED] Phone restarts regularly on every rom

Hi everyone, my desire s is acting strange since few days back.. it keeps on restarting for no reason. At first I thought its due to kernel updates to modified kernel 3. But then I installed reaper gingerbread. It restarted when I opened camera.
Then I installed Nik's project x . Still same problem sometimes when I open camera or other heavy application.
It restarts continuously 5-6 times without completely booting and battery drains to 10-15% from 80-90% within 5 minutes..
I've not got this problem when in charging mode..
I'm now using ice_ds 4.3
If anyone have same problem before , is there a solution to this?
Thanks in advance..

I think it's my Battery problem. Now it restart as soon as I unplugged the power cable.
I didn't find a way to close this thread,
Could anyone tell me how do I close this thread ?

Just add [Solved] to the front of the title, then people will know (edit the first post)

I get this too on all custom ROMS.. sometimes if I knock the phone a certain way it resets.. so it must be hardware related.
Can you let me know what your 'SOLUTION' is? All I see if the cause. Thx

my solution: buy new battery :laugh:

Put a bit of paper between the battery and the holder clip, that fixed it for me to keep the battery in place.

Problems with my Phone?!?!

****** PROBLEM SOLVED ******
"I decided to buy a new battery from Amazon which didn't cost that very much. My phone is back to normal so it was my battery I'm guessing like the battery exploded because it felt all lumpy & stuff."
** Thank you everyone who left suggestions & answers to help me with my problem much appreciated! **
Okay I've recently rooted my Samsung Galaxy S 4G for about 2 weeks now & I am currently having some problems with my phone. I'm not sure if its my phone or the ROMs that I am flashing. The problem that I am having is that when I'm using my phone that has a full battery my phone just shuts off completely. I turn it back in on the battery is almost dying so I charge the phone. When its done charging I unplug it & continue to use my phone, but for some reason it keeps turning off on me. I can't use my phone at all because of this the only way I can use my phone is if its plugged in to charge. I thought maybe it was the ROM that I am using which was Valhalla FINAL so I flashed it again & I get the same result. So, I decided to download a different ROM which was HebrewValhalla3.5_AROMA & guess what I get the same result. I really want to use my phone, but I can't so if someone can please help I would really appreciate it very much!
So what do you think could be the problem is it the ROMs that I am flashing or what? Please give me some tips & what ROMs do you recommend? I really need anyone's help...Thanks

It's the battery.

Battery.....can buy em all day long @Amazon.com for $5.00

It can't be the battery because it works normal when my phone is not rooted

Its not the battery my phone works fine when it isn't rooted.

So you unrooted it and it works fine now?

Yeah it works fine like normal when it isn't rooted, but when I root it again it does the same thing

Well if you really wanna find where the problem is, assuming it's not the battery, try running on stock unrooted for a day, then flash just a rooted kernel, and then try a full rom.

Okay I will try that, but what would you recommend I'm kinda new to this stuff.

You should read this.

I would have to say its not Valhalla final because i am running it with no problems. I have 1day 12hrs 35mins on a single charge. With 38% left on battery. Simply rooting your phone would not cause massive battery issues. Gotta be something more going on.

just wanted to chime in. i was having the same issue, but my sgs4g has been rooted with froyo 2.2.1 since i took it to a guy to root it for me(i had bricked my first one ha!) when KD1 was still the thang. and just a few months ago i started having this problem out of no where, just as used described it op, except i haven't been flashing anything on or off it, and i thought it had to do with a shetty app i had installed. i put a 'new' battery in and had the same issue, eventually the new battery(which was a very sensitive 1500mAh i bought for $20 at a local phone spot) blew up when a gf sat on me while it was in my pocket. the batteries seem really sensitive, there's a warning label to not apply pressure to the battery and it's easy to do with the sgs4g. anyway i went out and bought a 900mAh from best buy for 40 bucks :"""( but it works fine now. battery slowly creeps to zero like its supposed to. i haven't flashed anything or changed anything app-wise, still rooted.
when i was having this problem i also found that there's a battery calibration app for when you flash a new rom, but it didn't help me. worth a shot when you flash a new rom though i reckon.
hope that helps!

Sensitive? Really? Lmao
That's a load of crap.
I have 4 batteries that i charge on a continuous basis with an external charger and 2of them have been thru hell and back and still work as good as new. And for your info battery calibration apps do nothing good for your battery.
I'm not saying they don't go bad cuz I've had several that have....but sensitive? I'm not buyin that.
I am an ironworker and keep my extra batteries in my pocket all day every day and always have one in the charger.
As for rooting your phone causing the battery problems.....not buyin that either....that my friend is in your head....or there's more to it than your telling us.

[Q] Help! Crashes and all apk stop working

Hello devs...
Month ago i decided to root my Sensation and installed Elegancia ROM with Sebastian Kernel..
Before that i had Battery issues..that made the phone go out of power for like 2 hours in screen mode..
1. Now.. when i start using the phone.. at home there is no problem.. but when i go outside... whenever i start using the phone after a minute.. when the battery level shows like 57% the phone crashes and when i turn it on again it shows 2% battery and shuts down again.. little later when i try to turn on again.. it shows like 12-15-20%.. (Today it fell down from 90% to 2 then after restart it went to 50)...
Does any1 have any idea how am i supposed to fix those crashes.. or what's the reason to have them.. because i can't rely on my phone when i go outside.. 1 minute of brousing causes crash and battery lvl down with more than 50%..
And the most curious thing is that when i come back at home and connect the Phone to the charger and turn it on.. it shows 50% battery
2. And the second issue is that with Faux Kernel and Pacha after the phone crash and i arrive home.. when i turn it on every single application says "Unfortunately XXXXX has stopped working".. And i'm forced to reinstall the ROM because deleting all the data and reinstalling the applications is not working.
I will be really grateful if someone can be that good to help me.. PLEASE :crying:

Have you tired a new battery? Seems like your having issues with your battery ? Also after putting in a new battery if your still having issues you might consider another rom? I'd do some experiment and see if a new rom helps. Also I'd try a new battery. Best wishes

hi,
1)if you tried different kernels and you had the same issues
then maybe your battery is dying or it is not housing properly
check it.you can also try a different rom
2)try to do wipe dalvik + cache from recovery or
do a full wipe and reflash the rom
best wishes

Thank you for the advice.. i already ordered Anker.. but still wondering how to fix the problem with the stopping of all applications.. they just don't work.. and i have to reflash the rom to fix it..
The problem with those crashes is with all 3 Kernels i've tried.. Sebastian, Faux and Pacha.. now trying Bricked.. But.. only Sebastian doesnt give me the error with the applications.

Completely drain your battery to zero till your phone shuts down on its own and then charge it without disturbance in switched off mode till it shows 100%. If that does not help flash stock 2.3.6 firmware again....

Tell something about the condition of your battery. Is it swelled?

I too agree with him.... follow the steps told by him and
Charge your battery in cycles ( mostly from 0(or 10%) to 100 %) in "off mode" ( recommended by most of xda members)
lithium batteries dont like heat save from high heating...
This will longer the life of your battery and give you a boost..

my battery is fine..its not evn 2 years since i bought my phone..completely draining the battery nd then charging it it switched off mode also didnt workk...what shud i do?

if still u r facing problem in battery draining.......
change ur firmware to ddkq5 or 2.3.4
or ddkt3....
or flash any custom rom

Does extremely cold/hot climate also affect battery performance? If yes then how can we maintain appropriate battery temperature?

That battery callibration is a hoax , it has no effect whatsoever .
First check if your battery is in proper condition ; if there is a buldging in between , causing battery to rotate when kept on a straight surface and given a torque , then you will have to change the battery
if the battery is proper , see what is taking your battery , maybe delete and freeze some apps which you don't use , delete widgets , live wallpapers , keeping tab on wifi ,bluetooth and gps

I have the same condition as you'res so I use a Nokia battery of a Nokia fone and I attach a cut-refill for battery to stay in place...Samsung batteries in India don't last longer than a year or 2...I also have galaxy fit from 2 years. If u don't want to replace you're battery then get the paid version of app called power max it is a lot better than any juice defender or other....also try installing a cyanogen ROM as that will consume SIGNIFICANTLY less amounts of battery.... Press thanks if it works

My battery fix/bodge

I have an o3d that has a battery percentage problem it displays what it wants when it wants. Such as 70% one minute an 5 mins later its gone to 0% and shut down making it useless unless on charge. It is not a bad battery as i have 7 various batterys that work fine in my other o3d. I have tried the battery calibration apps which delete battery stats .bin and big surprise it did nothing. So i used link to sd to freeze power off
.apk and now my phone stays turned on even when at 0%! This does cause a couple of problems though such as going through usual shutdown precedure only reboots phone (i dont mind though this is handy to reboot). If you reboot whilst percentage is low it wont restart without inserting charger. Phone can still be turned off by holding power button for approx 10 seconds. The worst problem is when 0% is reached the status bar usually force closes (which is a real pain using android without status bar). And camera and a few apps wont work as battery is always low but at least i can use phone. I have learnt so much from xda so i thaught i would share this in case it can help someone. Please share if this was helpfull and if you have any tips on how to fix errors caused by this.

And also if anyone knows what may be causing my problem in the first place any help would be greatly appreciated. I have already tried a re flash of standard rom and a couple of different custom gb roms. And a custom kernal. I am currently trying to work out how to flash ics to try and fix this properly. I do not know how this problem first occured as i brought this phone off ebay second hand. The problem first occured when this phone was unlocked so i was told. I did notice that even though it was sold as o3d and the sticker on the back confirmed this, that it said p925 in about phone not p920. Not sure if this is related. So again if you have an un-usable phone i hope the above can help you out. And thanks again to anybody that could help fix this once and for all.
