[Q] battery overheated charging disconnected - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727

I have galaxy SII SGH-I727 the battery after a full charge last 1 hour idle mode , also when I plug it to charger I get a pop up message saying "battery overheated charging disconnected"
I tried factory reset , I replaced the battery and cleaned the USB slot but none of these solved the issue, I took it to Samsung repair center, they didn't bother looking at it as they just wanted to replace the motherboard which it is as expensive as new phone.
the battery is not really hot when that message pop up.
the phone is not rooted and I rather not to get involved in it
So before I give up on this phone, does anyone know a way to fix it ?
Regards

N8013 Charging stuck at 0% - motherboard problem?

I've had this 8013 for a while and have hardly used it. Softbricked my Nexus 7 (bootloop, cant get to fastboot mode, but thats another story), so started up my 8013.
Somehow the screen on the 8013 stayed on and discharged the battery.
After connecting the charger (Samsung OEM charger and OEM cable) the status was: 0% Charging.
Have read (most) of the charging related posts on XDA and have not been able to revive my tablet.
I requested the Samsung Service Center to replace the battery, but they claim this is a motherboard problem.
I factory reset it - didn't help.
I used a rooting app and wiped the battery stats but that didn't help either.
So, is there any hope of fixing the 8013 (its out of warranty as I bought it from the US (refurbished) and the local Service Center will have nothing to do with it).
Solved / Workaround
I noticed the charger was getting warm, but cooled down after a while.
I left the charger connected for a day.
My guess was that the OS was seeing the battery charge at 0% and shutting the system down.
I fixed this by using
[MOD][XPOSED][2.3+] DisableCriticalBatteryShutdown - v1.0 [ABANDONED]
to disable the shutdown feature. With this installed the tablet has worked for more than 30 minutes now. Hopefully I can recalibrate the battery, if not, I'll just have to use it as long as I think it would be safe without killing it.

Funeral Time?

Recently my phone began to seem like it was discharging oddly and I noticed it was shutting of when the battery indicator still read around 20% so I calibrated the battery. I cant think of any reason there would be a direct relation between battery calibration and power sharing but coincidently after doing so evrytime I plugged in my charger (Samsung OEM, nothing generic) the phone initially indicated it recognized the charger with a chime and a halo ring above the home button but almost immediately charging stops and the phone gave a warning about power sharing indicating that the phone must be charged above 20%. To clarify, I've never used the power sharing feature and didn't even know about it till this issue arose. From this time on I could only charge the phone after I shut it down completely, simulated a battery removal and then inserted my charger afterwards while the phone remained off. Each of those times I've initiated those steps while some small amount of charge remained. Most recently the phone discharged completely and I cant get the phone to recognize any type of charger or USB. Lastly I began to noticed that thd phone continually mis recognized it's charger as USB and would indicated that USB had been removed even while the charger was still plugged into the wall and connected to the phone. I mention this because this says to me that there might be something which can be corrected which was corrupted or misconfiguration which could cause the phone to recognize the charger as USB. It might ve too late now that I cant get it to charge by a y conventional means though. So what do you think. Is it time to lay my Note 5 to rest already? I hope not. Unfortunately my warranty is void due to root so there won't be any exchanging. Thank God for insurance though right. If I can avoid the $175 for replacement I would love to though. Thanks in advance for your time anyone.

Your only choice is the 175, no way to get out of it....see if battery was removable could just buy a new one to see if its just the battery. I know one of my friend was having issue similar on the note 4 but a brand new battery fixed that.
Now instead of manufacturing warrantee, do tmobile warrantee. It should NOT be 175 for a replacement. You call them tell them the issue because I assume you have jump? Try the phone first...a replacement should come in 2 days. When I replaced my note 4 all I paid was 5 bucks.
Do warranty through t-mobile, they won't check for root
Check that there isn't any trash /pocket lint in the charger port.
Like with a flashlight
I am having the same issue, from everything I have read, a hard reset should fix it. I'm hesitant to do one because of the lack of an SD card. I have my cloud disabled because I don't want it, but I don't want to lose texts and pics I have saved.
I'd be tempted to odin to stock + factory reset.
As said, go thru tmobile. Just call them and tell them what it's doing. If it's a hardware issue I would have no problem doing a warranty exchange and in my previous dealings with tmobile, they don't care about the phone being knox tripped. My first note 5 I got back in November would get warm on longer calls and just shut off, I exchanged it with no questions asked.
Dude you pay 5 bucks on next bill and they'll overnight you a phone if u call now. They don't care honestly about root and your phone will be sorted as needing storage completely replaced anyway. I dropped my rooted Knox tripped phone new years eve. Screen died instantly. Yes they can detect if they were trying , even with screen dead, but they won't. I got my replacement today. Also if worse comes to worse and your worried about being told it's not covered when u mail back , the insurance warranty replacement is 50 or 75, I think 50. At first I thought also that I'm better off making the phone disappear, several friends at tmobile store advised me not to worry.
Edit: after reading again ,honestly I'm not sure which method mine was replaced with lol, I think maybe it did use the insurance. I just remember an option for more money as well, this option i was just asked to be sure no water damage and or signs of physical damage.

Battery completely dead or other hardware issue? [semi-resolved]

Hi All, my wifes s6 (using xtrestolite rom) has stopped taking a charge. Im trying to figure out what the issue is. Unfortunately im travelling for the next month so have limited trouble shooting options.
Background
- wife has been complaining that her phone battery dies quickly. I kind of dimissed her assuming it was in her head. she said it loses 10percent in standby mode in 1hr roughly. Shes been complaining about this for a week.
- yesterday at the airport her battery was at 12% and when we plugged it in to charge it wouldnt take a charge. Bolt icon did not come up and still said "connect charger" on the screen. Normally when connected the red Led comes on, but now it doesnt.
-our normal chsrging method is using and aukey 3port charger as fast charging mode.
Troubleshooting/diagnosis
- i have an s6 as well so i tested all the cables and chargers on my phone and it works. We even had the official samsung charger and cable but same issue.
- after the phone was completely dead, if you plug in the charging cable the charging bolt icon comes on for a few sec, the top left says "kernel is on seandroid enforcing" for a sec and then everything goes blank. Red charging led doesnt come on. So it seems like it detects the cable but wont charge enough to boot up.
- i was able to boot into twrp recovery but where its supposed to have a battery level its completely blank. Originally i was able to do this without any canles but then it wouldnt. My guess is that i orginally had a bit of juice and then it was completely dead.
-after leaving it plugged in for a sec, im able to turn it on where it boots and i can see it says 0% battery. It stays on for 5sec before turning off itself.
- i also tried plugging it into laptop, but laptop does not detect it. The phone does detect the power though and does the same as above but this time bolt charging icon stayes on for 1-2min before going off and seeing the "kernel is on seandroid icon". Once the seanadroid goes away nothing seems to happen. After doing this i was able to turn it on and it showed 1%. I thought this was promising but after trying this a few times ive never been able to get to 1percent again.
- with the brief charge thst i guess its getting, i was able to go i to twrp recovery and do a factory reset. This was with cable plugged in the whole time. Without cable in i dont think it would complete the action.
That about summarizes whats happened.
Ive concluded the following:
- charger and cables are ok and not the issue
- it is not the charging port since the phone does seem to be getting some juice bacause charging icon comes on for 2sec whenever cable is plugged in.
- its not a software/app issue since it wont charge even in recovery mode. Also factory reset was done and no luck.
My best guess is that the battery can only hold a 0-1% charge which is enough to register it being plugged in but not enough to do anything else. But if everything else is ok shouldnt it work when if the cable is just left in. This makes me think theres something else going on.
Any suggestions or theories would be much appreciated trying to decide if i should pay to get battery replaced.
Sorry for the long post. Figured it is best to give all info.
Thanks in advance!
Update June 3:
Hey everyone, just a correction on the above. It looks like it is able to charge in recovery (slowly). I realized that although there is no battery level during recovery, no charging led, and not booting up after being charged for a bit, maybe its just going slowly.
So i went into recovery and left it overnight on the non-fast charging and woke up after 8hrs and it was at 78percent!!!
Im not sure why it didnt go to 100% in 8hrs.
The phone still doesnt charge regularly when plugged in, so still need to fix that.
Do you guys think its a rom issue (only factory reset done before) ? I will see if i can get a rom for flashing.
Update 2:
Reflashed xtrestolite rom but still no luck. It wont charge.
Seems like a dead battery.

Bump.
Went to the phone store and they said its probably not the battery but the ic chip for charging? This will cost 150, but doesnt include the screen if they break it...
Does this make sense since i can charge in recovery.
Thanks. Any direction or input is much appreciated.
Go on the local store and change your battery (if isn't in warranty)
Hi all, just wanted to update the post that the issue is semi-fixed.
I brought it into a repair shop who offered to diagnose the problem for free before paying to replace the battery.
He told me there was nothing wrong with it and not sure what my issue was. Plugs in the charger and lo and behold it was charging. He said he didnt do anytning to it except blow some compressed air on the port.
Im guessing the comporessed air cleaned out a short? So now it charges properly.
The issue remaining is that the pc doesnt detect the phone. It shows as charging on the phone but no conmection. Tried to install the latest samung driver (1.5.4xxx?) but no luck. On occation sometimes it says "usb port has malfunctioned" but other times nothing.
My s6 does actually connect, so definitely my wife's s6 itself and not comp. Im tempted to buy some comlressed air and give it ankther blow, but dont want to risk messing it up again. im pretty happy that it at least charges up.
Hope this helps others that might have similar issue.

Samsung Galaxy S6 is telling me it is overheating, it is cold. How Backup?

Dear Androidpeople,
Since November, I am the glad owner of the Samsung Galaxy S6. I am a really Samsung fan, I have had the S2, S3, S4 and now the S6. The previous two weeks I had some charging issues. In particular, sometimes I had to plug in the cable three times before it really 'connected' and started charging. I tried it after that with another Samsung cable and this problem was solved. The day before yesterday I was planning to charge my phone and when I attached the cable to the phone it only started to charge after the phone was already 10 minutes connected.
Till this issues I didn't see that much problems. Every morning my phone was with al my problems, fully charged. Since yesterday, the big problem started. My phone was complete dead/0% battery. I wanted to charge my phone and I got this error: (I got the error in Dutch and tried to translate it, as best as I could)
Cannot charge phone
"The device is stopped charging. De battery temperature is too high. Be careful with disconnecting your charger. It could be very hot."
"When you disconnect the charger and reconnect is afterwards, you could possibly proceed charging your phone. If this overheating issue keeps existing, please contact our customer service because of risk of fire and injuries."

I have never had a problem of this kind. My phone and charger were both fully cold. I spoke with a guy at Vodafone and he told me this should be a case of warranty of Samsung/Vodafone. The problem now is, back-up.
The device is 0% charged, I could not charge it anymore and when I turned my phone on, it directly turned off. Now did I try to charge it yesterday and last night with multiple chargers. This morning it suddenly was 13% charged. So i quickly ran to my laptop to connect my device with it and start back-upping photos. But after connecting it tries to charge and I get the same error as i mentioned above. If I just look on the device itself every app is blocked for 'safety reasons' except 'Phone' and 'Contacts'. I cannot look into the Gallery, Dropbox or Onedrive. The device connecting with the laptop was not helpful. The laptop does not recognize any phone connected to it. So copying files from the laptop and the phone are not working. It looks the end of the possible solutions but maybe I forgot something.
Things tried tot fix it:
- Three different chargers
- Two different laptops
- Two different data cables
- Connecting via power, via laptop via the power bank.
- Cleared Dalvik Cache.
When I let him pick up by Vodafone they will try to fix the issue, but I will lose every photo from it. I know I should make a backup earlier. But that is talking now. Is there maybe one solution, one clever thing, one special tweak I could do to save my photo? Or should I start my grieving process?

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...
