[Q] Phone Switching off Frequently !! - Samsung Galaxy R i9103

Hi Guys ,
I have a strange problem with my phone.
It switches off frequently when i am using it and i dont know why...this is happening for the past one week. Before that i have installed 'Real Racing 3' which heated up my battery to the core and now it got bulged and i suspect the battery bulge is the problem which causes frequent shut downs..
Also , i noted that i cant easily close the back cover if i removed it because the size of the battery has grown ..
Please suggest me some permanent solution for this..Should i replace the battery ? or may be some other problem ?
I am in ICS Indian Stock ROM..

If d battery has bulged, den its definitely a problem with d battery..change it asap before something else happens..

So many errors...

Hello im Andy from Austria
I got this phone now since 1 month and its my first
android phone. But i have to say that this is not the phone i expected... It all started when i got the first deep sleep on FIRST day. I thought it would go away after some time but it didnt stop. Then i read this things about flashing etc. I tried flashing many firmwares, custom ROMS and kernels... Nothing helped against the deep sleep.But this is not the only Bug the phone has. Sometimes when i want to call someone i cant hear anything. I have to call like 3-4 times to get it work (very annoying). Sometimes i cant do anything (freeze) , 3g doesnt work , cant boot without putting battery out and in again and even more things. No wonder why the phone got out of stores. Currently im on NeoRom 1.0 . But i read some posts where people got their phone dead randomly, and so i want to revert to default config like i got it from shop. The problem is my binary counter is currently on 4... Is there any method to get it to zero without paying? And another problem is maybe because i have removed simlock from it so i think warranty is gone anyway...
Maybe i try to completly reset the phone and then sell it to someome to get some other phone...
We also dont have any CM and i wonder about this because many unknown phones do have CM... Like Galaxy Y or etc...
It would be better to get some GS2 or GS3.
At least there are no deep sleep issues.
Greetings from Austria,
Birki

First of all:
Deep sleep is not an issue! It's a good thing, it's the state when your CPU rests and save your battery. The problem you mentioned is called "sleep of death" (when device becomes unresponsive after screen off)
You can reset your counter with USB-jig (if you have Odin protocol v. 2, if you have 2.1 it's a way more complicated))
It sounds stupid.....but did you change the WiFi sleep policy to never ?

My SGR touch was also not responsive, installed stock rom and took it to service. Now working fine.
So there are galaxy rs that work fine?!
Some said it needs new motherboard. How can i check if i really got a screwed phone?

I agree with pudup . You should visit your service, and explain to them your problem, but even this does not guarantee that you'll get a replacement of motherboard. Maybe you can ask for refund than
i think in austria there isnt even a SSC.. :'(

Losing battery percentage is one of the common problem in almost all Samsung devices so don't worry abt it. After the battery drop, if u keep the phone idle for sometime the battery will raise automatically to it's actually level.

This thing only happens when the battery is miscalibrated. I've calibrated well various times and that problem gone. Try to use battery calibration apk.

well, there's no other way for me to recover my SL now unless i order a new motherboard
Here's the story:
I got my SL's touchscreen and digitizer replaced by some guy in stalls in a mall where they "repair" galaxy phones. Apparently, he did not inform me that he will be installing a fake one. Ergo, the keypad flex was already grounded... and unluckily passed on to my motherboard.
It literally f*cked up my charging input and output.
... *sigh

T959V shutting down randomly...

Seems like my phone shuts off every time I turn off the screen. Doesn't shut down when plugged in or when I'm using the phone... I'm using Domination ROM 100% supercharged. Any input on the cause would be greatly appreciated! I have a log cat but I don't seem to see a attachment button!!

I recently had an issue like this. My phone would randomly shut down. I found it persisted across ROMs so I knew it wasn't that. It ended up being my battery. Bought one off of Amazon and it has been like new ever since.
So my answer .. check the battery if you can. I was lucky enough to know some one with the same phone and was able to swap batteries for a bit to confirm it.
Take the battery and place it on something flat. If it spins easily (swollen). That's a good sign that it is on the way out.
Yeah... the battery seems a tad swollen! Thank you!!

Even the best batteries can go bad. I've even seen the iPhone split apart from a bad battery swelling up inside.
I've been using an Andida(?) 2300 mAh battery in my GS4G without issue. My HTC G1 has pretty much only been used with random eBay batteries (as the original HTC battery swelled up and stopped working years ago).
I've had some cheap batteries last a long time, and I've had OEM batteries crap out on me.
It's all kinda random.
So... About six and a half hours ago decide to check out that Xylon Ultimatum ROM (still haven't bought a new battery) was runnin P.A.C. All In One, and my phone has not shut off once. over 6 hours now! Could that have been a ROM issue? i thought for sure it was battery cause i been using that P.A.C. ROM for awhile now. and it just started this shutting off thing. i havn't seen anyone post anything with this issue running PAC All In One.
I'm thinking my battery is all good! It's been over 24 hours now and the battery is holding a great charge! Could the pac rom have that issue?
i messed with my voltages with SETCPU app the same way i did with the PAC ROM, and my phone shut off the first time i shut off screen! i subtracted 25 to 50 on all MHz levels. i changed them back and everything seems proper! could this be the cause of my shut down issue???
Thank you!!

Heating issue with new 4.2.2 Rom

Hi today I had heating issues with the new 4.2.2 rom, before rooting and after rooting.
Now with cpu control I saw it work on 99% load the whole time, I rebooted and it's gone now.
like 2% battery in 10 minutes. So yes maybe this version has a bug.
I'm still hoping for CM 10.x because we also don't have camera control on lockscreen if you use PIN to unlock.
bye
I have no problem with battery drain. Also not with over heating. But the lockscreen problem its also by me.
Sent from my GT-I9105P using xda app-developers app
For heating issue, the phone is extra hot when charging than usual, probably because of the SetCPU app incompatibility issue with 4.2.2 (1200mhz all the time).
For battery drain, yea as mentioned above, 1200mhz all the time...
Overally, we need a better kernel for this 4.2.2.
If it is really a cpu problem u can underclock ur cpu or use an another govener. But for this ur phone has to be rooted
Sent from my GT-I9105P using xda app-developers app
Yes I changed the governer to conservative / noop. I am on the lookout for this bug, it has not returned yet. I had it twice, before and after rooting. I don't know what program is doing this, if it happens now I can see what is doing it.
It's a bug in the rom.
Hmm if i can get my pc running again is would start searching too. But at the moment i have so problems with my network drivers and ndiswrapper xD

I have flashed 4.2.2 two days ago, I haven't experienced any battery and/or heating issues as of late.
I've found that sometimes when you opened the gallery app and done some photo viewing and thing like that with the gallery, it stayes at 25-50% running cpu in the background. I don't know what I've done because sometimes it's just normal. It stops when you fully close the app.

Actually i do have an s2+ and noticed that my phone was heating up quite a bit and started to drain battery a bit.
What i found was that gallery was syncing all my photos with google+, and i didn't want my photos being on g+ even as a backup.
So i switched the autobackip and sync fo photos off and problem solved

Hahaha relax relax
This auto sync features suck. It even downloads all the pictures from cloud storage or social media

Ahhann........ so that was syncing issue. Great to know that you are out of that heating problem.

[FIX][CASE MOD] Fixing all the Random Reboots!

Hi,
All credit goes too firosemp!!
I have just opened a new topic because the random reboots affect so many people.
In this video you will find the solution:
Thank you for this great XDA forum!
I don't thinks so.
My battery phone is definitely.
Sometimes, my phone is turned off when in the bag

But I think so. Every ROM especially Android1-7 4.3 and Vipers JB Rom is super stable now.
Give it a try!!
For me this was the best MOD (beside the MMS build.prop MOD for Vodafone Germany) ever.
how old are you 10 ? I did those tricks to nokia 3310 but now I know that the absolutly fix is gsm service... and when you say random reboots this is't about the hardware is about software...

nokia 3310!
what did you remember mate?
old times and common trick
everybody were using that trick
but in most cases it works now with random reboots
when the battery doesn't fit correctly with the pins and loses connection with them

I dont understand you. This fix is for fixing random reboots. Its not too hard to understand.
Maybe you are too young...
Hi guys, I jsut want to share my experience about random reboots...For about 4 month I had this problem with every rom I tried, changed battery but nothing so I sent my device to HTC and they changed motherboard; when they sent it back, problem wasn't solved but after a couple of week I had a clean install of inspiration without restoring my backups via TitaniumBackup (I erased them)...since then no more random reboots with any rom I tried...I just want to say that if this hardware method doesn't fix reboots, consider corrupted app backups
Had random reboots either, by replacing the battery with was 2 years old with an anker suddenly the problems dissapeared all. This trick shouldn't help really but yeah thanks.
Imho, the whole topic should be renamed or removed.

It really does help in some cases.. Like rzr said, improves the connection between battery & pins.
But it doesn't take a genius to figure out something like this >.>

Buy an Anker battery, especially if your stock one is ~2 years soon.
Also adjust CPU clock speeds and use apps like Greenify.
Stop flooding the development thread !
u got the General and the Troubleshooting
but this one is Fu&^%$ Sacred
I confirm it worked for my Sensation 4G with even Anker 1900mah. Months ago I used original battery then had random reboots. I bought the anker 1900mah battery, the problem went out a couple of days ( maybe because Anker is a bit bigger than original battery), however later it returned... so I searched for many solution and saw this... I tried with my anker and now for 6 months I have had no more random reboots...

I had my Sensation XE sent in for repairs (Volume button fell off). The shop lend me a Sensation XL. That thing had crazy random reboots. And I fixed it by wedgeing in a piece of folded paper between the battery top and the phone. Only because you could almost slide the battery around in its "seat".
Now I have an unorginal battery for my Sensation. Its a little bit taller and wider, I almost have to force it in. Thats way im sure the few reboots I have are kernel / rom related.

I've had some random power off, I suspected it's battery probelm because the phone didn't reboot, it just shut down. I've put a little piece of paper between the battery and the housing several days ago and it didn't happen since. Simple but effective, at least for me.
