[Q] Battery Issue - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

Hi All,
Since yesterday my SGR seems to be having weird battery issue, when i plug it in for charging it does not seem to charge, when i do it via USB cable it charges for a while & then the battery icon starts blinking (& charging stops) & it won't stop until i restart my phone.
if i shutdown the phone & allow it to charge via usb it charges fine.
The phone wasn't charging @ all few weeks back so i had the socket changed (it's out of warranty) it worked fine for couple of days & then this problem has started. i tried goggling the same but no luck. Any idea ? My charger works fine with other phones so i knw it;s not my charger also tried other chargers. :crying:
ur help is much appreciated...

Since it's only been a few weeks I suggest you show it to the ssc from where you got the charging port repaired.. It definitely seems like a hardware issue..
Also type *#*#4636#*#* in the dialpad... It should open up a diagnostics page which will show battery stats...
It's either a faulty port(or internal connection) or something wrong with the battery
From my CM10.1 powered galaxy R

I think you must check both of your Charger(already checked) & Battery to other Phone(related to it)
If both are working fine for you in other Mobile then do visit SSC & ask them to repair at free of cost coz if they say NO then threat them for Consumer complaint. Hope they will say YES for you..:fingers-crossed:

That is the problem my friend, i dnt have any friends around me with the same phone to swap the battery & check if the problem is with my phone or battery. i suppose i'm gonna have to take it to SSC this weekend. i hope i get a good techy there to identify & resolve my issue

o2 xda charging problem

hello!
im posting here after really long time cause ive found a problem thats got me completely stumped.
i recently got a new battery and charger for my o2 xda, now when i plug it in for charging the battery meter shows that the phone is getting charged up [rather fast] however when i restart the phone it shows that the battery is desparately low and almost dead, how is this possible when it shows that the battery is charging fine before? ive tried changing between version of tnt but to no avail. however when i charge it from the pc via usb it charges fine and the fake charging doesnt show but real slow charging shows, can this be fixed? thanks
a little help would be greatly appreciated
Try a base wm5 rom then go to a different wm6/6.1 rom from there, just an idea. I flashed my sister's Tilt with a rom and her car charger didn't work and as soon as she left town for 3 days the phone wouldn't react to wall charging, it would charge via USB only. i put a different rom on it and it's all fine. I know it's a different device, but it's an idea.
hmm so i shud try chargin on a base rom first? alriht ill try that out and let u know thanks!

[Q] Help - strange trouble.

Guys i am using this phone from past 2 months and no problem whatso ever but since past 2 days its bugging a lot......when ever i connect my phone to a charger or USB then it works perfectly but the moment i unplug the charges the screen turns unresponsive and starts to lag...i tried restore factory settings but was of no help....!! please help as soon as possible!!!
I have the same behaviour here.
The phone is a Yoigo i9103 with 2.3.4 Android
I dont remember the factory kernel version.
The screen is irresponsive sometimes, slow and phantom most of the time. i can't hold touch (like when move a desktop icon or scroll a list) for more than 3 seconds, the screen acts as if I have removed my finger.
I reset to factory defaults and installed a 2.6.36.4-ardatdat kernel (V.1.5) and it have been working nice for a few days. Now its working bad again.
I have done factory reset again, removed screen protector (perhaps static issue), wipe cache, wipe davik, wipe battery stats, remove sd card and nothing.
When I plug the cable (from charger or from USB) it works smooth again instantly.
I tested with 456MHz max, 216MHz min governor interactive with the cable pluged and it works fine. Screen is smooth and response is fast and accurate.
Do again with 1000MHz max, 216MHzmin governor performance without cable and its irresponsive again.
So, I think its not a CPU work issue.
Question for people who know about capacitive screens or smart people in general
Could be something like the screen have static charge and when the cable is plugged the phone is well grounding, so it works fine again??
Sorry for my english
It might have to do with the voltages....

@ Romwe
It could be what you are saying but there could be many other factors at play other than that also.
We can't be sure if grounding is actually helping in reducing it by passing the static charge through the ground thereby increasing responsiveness, though its certainly possible.
I would suggest you to take it to the service center as they would simply change the motherboard or the screen.
Do update here whatever you do.
Ok. Ill do
This morning i plugged the phone to the car charger, its not a samsung's one its from an old blackberry, when i take the phone again, about 1h20', the screen was black and the phone does not respond.
Did a reset ( 7'' power button ) and the phone works again.
Now the interesting part: i have unplugged it about 1 hour ago and the phone still thinks its charging...
The battery reads 84% now, 3970mV and status charging
The screen is smooth and fast as when the phone is plugged.
This things are freaking me out :what:
Ill do a battery reset later.

maybe its a micro usb port problem... I'm facing some unresponsiveness while charging, and when unplug my phone my screen sometimes make to fail the long press, and can't make long press touch for example like keeping the status bar in the middle... I solve it by blocking the screen and turning it back on. It always has been like this from day 1, so I think that's a bug that i should to bear with.
There's something definitely wrong with the hardware now that its showing wrong status of being charged when the charger is not even connected.
I feel the screen could be just fine as it is working fine when the system feels/judges its connected to a power source even though when it is not. There could be something wrong with the motherboard or as George said it could be the micro USB which is faulty.
If you take it to a service center I think these guys will simply flip your motherboard for a new one.
Keep updating us here.

Go to service center because it is probably a hardware problem.

When plugged u set to governer interactive and unplugged it is governer performance? I feel thats the issue. Set it to interactive for unplugged as well. Plus make sure ur voltages are not UV more than 25mV. Wipe battery stats once fully charged.
If nothing helps, then its surely h/w issue.

Well even i had the same problem.....but on a very temporarily basis..
i.e. the problems starts by its own and gets resolved by its own...it happens only for a few minutes....
I wonder how others are facing it for a longer period of time.

I have this problem too with my phone.
But I have found some sort of "fix" for it, though it doesn't seem to last very long.
When I get these problems I use a semi-wet wooden toothpick and cleans the chargerport (microUSB port). And after that it seems to work better.
My guess is that the system seems to recognise some sort of charge-trigger and that may interrupt the touchinput-sequence.
This is only my own thoughts and experience but it seems to work for me, soo I figured I could share it with all of you!
Cheers!

I could have found a solution:
It seems the problem is all related to dirt in the microUSB-port.
I cleaned the port very much, and made sure it was clean even in the tight area between "ground" and the "stick" where the power comes from.
I used a small piece of standard writingpaper and folded it once and stuck it between ground and the "powerstick". I also used a thin knife, like a razorblade to get it clean.
But now it seems all problem I had has disappeared!
Hope it helps others
I never had such problems ;-)

have you change you theme..? coz I think few themes is not supporting the charging icon. BTW if your phone is switched off then the charging icon come..?? also, have you checked in ICS also??
Try booting into cwm and mounting USB storage.... if this mounts then at least we will know that your USB port is fine.... if this doesn't work then your charging port may be damaged and you may have to take your phone to the service center
Proudly supporting Adam for CM team recognition
In CM, LPM (Low Power Mode) doesn't work yet. It means it loads the whole system when you plug in the charger. init cannot distinguish the two modes yet, I'm working on it.
Actually the battery isn't charging at all... Today I tried many times to charge, but only sometimes it charges while most of the time it doesn't charge...
I removed battery and kept it out for 10 mind and again tried to charge but same problem.. Sometimes only it charges..
And @pankaj it's not about theme... I changed and saw it...
And my point being if connecting charger to my switched off device turns it on by detecting the charger, the charging circuitry won't be broken.. So it seems software issue or battery issue..
Also yesterday I turned on purging of assets and kernel memory management on and also enabled zRAM to 18%..would that create such. Issue??

Charging issues on ICS
I am on BB ROM with Ardatdat 4.0 Kernel. For last few I am also facing some strange charging issues:
1. 9 times out of 10, the phone doesnt get charged using the charger.
2. However if gets charged using the USB cable connected to my laptop most of the times. Sometimes that too doesn't work but after couple of retries it starts charging
3. Sometimes even after disconnecting my charger, the icon shows that the phone is being charged.
4. Sometimes after disconnecting the charger/usb, the phone gives the beep which is heard when the charging starts. This happens multiple times and I have to shutdown the phone and remove the battery to stop this from happening.
These are really strange things that are happening to my phone.
I am thinking of flashing stock GB ROM and giving it to the service center. Is there something that I can try before I do that as I am not sure how long my phone will be there at the SSC?

Buddy SSC is the best option.
Same things happened to me till i visited the company owned ssc.
The normal ssc (not the company owned ones) had put a faulty jack which made me and my phone go beserk.
Go to a COMPANY OWNED SSC. Skilled staff, better spares and quick response and delivery.
Not the ones who have taken a dealership sort of thing. They just irritate you.

Can you try plugging it into your computer and check (on Windows) if a MediaTek port constantly appears and disappears In Device Manager under Ports (COM & LPT) when you attempt to boot your phone?
I ll do asap. Btw before this, the usb port already started to give me problems: unknown device, on windows so from that moment I started to move files using sdcard or wifi transfers.
update: No life signs. So I had to buy another phone. It doesn t charge at all and it started suddenly for no reasons. When I have a moment I ll give to some shots to repair it. Maybe it s just the plug...
RMA
I just got my replacement phone back from BLU RMA. I had the same issue where it just wouldn't charge. I even replaced the battery. I believe the usb port was the issue, but I sent it back. They replaced it no questions asked.
Good to know. I m in London and I had to buy a new phone. But yesterday I left the dead blu pure xl to a shop. I ll go there again to tell them about your news. (I want to fix in Uk as I m not willing to spend money to send it to Usa or whereverit s from).thx!

plz help to make my one plus one alive...

Hello gyz, i ve a one plus one and its bricked now its not booting to recovery and Fastboot its only shows one plus logo and powered by android in half erased and sometimes when plugged to charger it shows the battery is low and some Chinese blah blah and when tried to boot Fastboot its get off and its stand off for somtimes.....
Can any one have a solution for this
Plzz help
Sorry for my bad English.....
let the phone charger for 10 minutes and then turn it on while the charger is still connected....if its boot then the problem is the battery...buy new battery and it will solved your issues....
This happened with me as well sometime back, I had to replace the battery. And in my case the charging strip also broke (may be a short-circuit).
Service centre people said that my motherboard needs a replacement and will cost around 15-17K, however, I found a website which fixes any hardware issues in a nominal cost (doing a chip level repair) and if a part needs a replacement they will only replace that specific part. GadgetWood is their name. Google it.
I will suggest to leave the phone connected to the stock charger overnight if a few minutes doesn't help. Hopefully that will fix the problem.
All the best.
But i ve charge it and then it get stucked on one plus half logo for a long time
The charger must be connected when you turn on your phone...that is how you check whether the battery is good or bad...
