[Q] rom or hardware issue? - General Questions and Answers

I have an at&t sgh-i747 that suddenly was charging very slowly, like 8 hours for a full charge. That is when I could get it to charge at all. sometimes it wouldn't charge it all. most of the time it wouldn't not even show that it was charging. I was running a custom ROM based on stock. by stratatak7 Intergalactic.. I was unable to find anyone else with this problem using that same rom. (or at all for that matter.)
Anyway I recently put CM 10.1.2 on it and BOOM problem resolved... This doesn't seem to me like your typical software/ROM issue. I thought sure my charging port was shorting out. But now, the only explanation I can come up with is the ROM being the culprit..
Any input would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

first swich back to stock and see problem occurs.
if yes then go to care centre or swich battery.

Yeah, I did just that. I switched it back to stock and charged perfectly. Didn't short out at all. So what I learned is that a bug in a rom can cause seemingly hardware related issues.
Sorry if I posted on the wing place, this started out as what I thought to be a hardware issue so I posted it on hardware. Turns out to be a software issue.

Interesting,
I was very tempted to try that rom, glad I didn't i guess!!
I ran CM10.2 for a while
I am now on Hyperdrive (check it out) http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2176752
I like Hyperdrive for a ton of the Galaxy features you loose with CM but you can do similar apps and features you get with CM. It is a good mix; also the battery life is good so far at 34% been off a charger for 9h 22m 59s (screen is most of the drain)
Thanks for the info about the other rom

Thanks, I'll check it out. I love the tweakability of cm but wish it had more features out of the box. Might be what I've been looking for...

any one can help............?????

it's probably the best to first search for a guide in your device specific forum. for nearly every device there's some kind of "how to get back to stock"-guide in which every little step is already printed out in detail.
I got InvendorĀ“s Version 3.1 with Android 4.04 at my SGS+
and erverything works so far right now....Back to stock Rom ...there must be an HoW to in here...just use the Search button =) or google=)
but the Batterylife...hmmm...if i let the 3G Conneczion the hole time on i got to reload this ervery day...so just try to stopp the connection...
BTW...what are u doin with ure phone?? That could be a good explain 4 youre battery drain ...
On my Stock rom i got almost the same drain as it gets yet...
the problem with your battery is, that your device have to learn again how full/empty your battery is. you have to load it to 100% and wait until it is empty (turns off) for 2 times, then it should be display the right %.
had the same problem with Galaxy s1 and cyanogen 9
Thats good Tor know thanks btw....

This has a workaround.
It is suggested that everytime you flash a new rom that you calibrate your battery.
The ideal method (at least that of what i've read) is:
1. Fully empty your battery
2. Fully charge your battery
3. Use callibration software (for ex: http://www.xda-developers.com/android/calibrate-your-battery-the-easy-way-with-battery-calibration-for-android/

Buddy It is sad to see you facing problem with your device. Can you tell exactly what's your problem. What I understand from your post is whenever you remove your battery and plug it back your mobile is not turning on. You have to keep it off for 1 day before you can turn it on successfully. Is that what you are trying to say buddy?

I was using official rom not rooted one till yesterday.
I installed ICS yesterday guessing that it would solve the problem but the problem remains same & it became worst than ever before.
I am going to install the original firmware once again but I am not getting the proper link to download it. Could you please just give me the link to download ginger bread 2.3.6 for the Saudi Arabian Region?
& I think there must be a problem in boot sector. Whenever I remove the battery and plug it back to it, it takes time to turn it on at least 10 to 24 hours.
One more thing my laptop is detecting the mobile even my mobile is turn off.

[Q] Samsung Galaxy S2 firmware or battery faulty?

Hi guys,
My Galaxy S2 quite often got abnormal reaction. It's running custom RR ROM with original standard battery.
Main problem is: Over the night, the phone just can't wake/power on. After check the battery usage, the result goes here at attach file.
Other problem is quite often system sudden hang.
It's obviously the battery faulty, isn't it? And it's time for new battery.
So, what do you think? Do you think this could be a custom ROM problem?
Yes.. I think it's custom ROM issue

Really? I did think about it before. But I tried flashed both original and custom Rom also having the same issue. That's why I suspect is the battery causing it. With all these whole issue, that means I have to flash my gs2 again?

Any other comments are welcome...

HELP! My tab won't turn on!

OK so what happened was I had the latest CM10 build installed and wanted to try the paranoid android rom out and I flashed my device with the 2.50 build. I soft bricked it. I could still go into recovery but the device wouldnt load into paranoid android. I had an emergency so I had to leave the device the way it was in a bootloop state I came back the device was off. Obviously It ran out of juice. And now when I try to charge it i don't get any response...... could this be a hard brick?? ??
please guys any help would bbe greatly appreciated!

Happened to once with a different model. Never had it fixed, as suggested by a technician, go to someone who has a JTAG. Same with what I was thinking, but I never bothered to had it fixed.
Good luck.

Well if I'm not mistaken I don't think there is jtag for our devices. well I fixed it now thank god! I took apart another p6200 and swapped out the batteries and as soon as I swapped them the one I thought was bricked booted up! I flashed the stock rom then rootedbit ahandball that now its working great! I guess it doesn't charge whenbits in a boot loop or something? Thanks man I really appreciate ur help

I just had this problem too and couldn't find any answers about what can I do to solve it...
I was trying to flash ICS ROM over Odin (I hate it), and it always stucked on the process. When I tried to reboot, it did just not woke up again!
What may have happened? Does someone knows what to do now?
I really don't know what to tell you... for me swapping out batteries fixed it but it was a real pain to do so. You could try keeping it plugged into the charger for a while and ssee if the screen powers on. If it does just put your tab in download mode and flash from Odin. Maybe u had a llow charge when you tried flashing stock?
