[Q] disabling charging mode

hey,
my callphone (samsung galaxy s captivate) restarts by itself sometimes (~once a week or 2). i can live with that , but my problem is when it restarts like that while i'm asleep , and the phone is connected to the charger, because what happens then is that it enters charging mode (when the screen shows a big recharging battery) instead of just restarting and booting to the OS (and as a result , the alarm doesnt wake me up).
my question is: is there any way to change that behavior ? i mean is it possible to make the phone turn on and boot to the OS if it was turned off and then connected to a charger (or restarted while connected to a charger) ? is it the kernel or the hardware that makes to boot into the charging mode instead of the OS ?
thanks

Might Be a hardware issue. You can Try Wipeing Data But if you are rooted or not stock rom use Recovery.

it probably a hardware issue (the restarting) .. i'm using custom rom, and i tried 2 roms (and i wiped everything including formatting system partition) but the problem is still there . thats the reason i'm trying to find a work around .
if its the kernel that makes the phone boot into charging mode when it gets connected to charger while turned off, then i guess its possible to change the functionality and make it boot the OS instead of the charging mode. but if its the hardware then i'm doomed.
google didn't help me so i posted here hopping that kernel developers answer my question.
thanks for the reply

Don't knows hat to tell ya then kernels do that sometimes.

[Q] Trouble with screen

Hello, I've been running MOAR 6.1 for few days and since yesturday when i tried to shut the screen to off mode the screen won't close and the power off reboot screen appears, it also turns on and off few times on it's own and it interrups with the popup of power off reboot screen continously, i thought maybe it was the rom so i changed to different rom but it wasn't the rom. i'm kinda puzzled and i just can't get this problem solved. anyone with similar issues or someone who knows what this issue is please help.. it's driving me crazy everytime i try to use the phone.

[Q] Galaxy S3 boot loop, no recovery or download mode

So my Galaxy S3 (SPH-L710) running CM10 has been occasionally rebooting for a while now. It had been getting more frequent until today when it simply is stuck rebooting. Before the standard suggestions start flying in:
1. I have tried clearing the cache. It took me a long time to do because it would still reboot from download mode, leaving me about 5 seconds to clear it before reboot.
2. I have tried factory reset, but the phone rebooted during the reset.
3. Download mode results in a reboot as soon as I push continue.
4. I have removed the SD card in case it was somehow causing the issue.
5. Plugging the phone in causes it to turn on and display a red notification light and a battery logo with a loading circle in it for about one second. It then reboots.
6. Odin will not detect the phone when plugged in
My other two thoughts besides a software issue is a bad motherboard or a bad battery. Is there a way to determine what the issue is? If the issue is software, how would one fix it without having access to download mode or recovery mode?
Thank-you in advance for any help. I had no success with my Google-fu. You guys are the last bastion of hope in the Android universe.

Does anyone know anything about my issue? Would a JTAG work to fix this?

look like bad Emmc Chip

Try to go to Download Mode by pressing all the 3 keys and as you feel the phone vibrates just release the power button hope this should work.

Same boot loop issue
tjlw, have you had any luck in solving your problem?
I have a friends Galaxy S3. Same issue although his phone was never modded in any way whatsoever.
I can get the phone to turn on either into download mode or recovery mode for one second but then it turns off.
If I have the usb cable plugged in the phone wont turn on whatsoever; not into download or recovery mode.
Thanks in advance for advise!
*******Ended up being a stuck power button that would constantly power down phone. Opened up phone and replaced power button*****

Mi4 hard brick and onlys red Led blinks

Hi guys
My device is Mi4W 3G/16G. That morning i got up and turned on my phone but the screen was black and could not turn it on.Then I used MiSuitePC to fastboot.It automatically downloaded and flash Rom (seem it was China Rom but my device used Global Rom). But after flashing the device didn't boot up. So I tried to flash Rom by test point .It was successfully flashed by test point. But i still can't turn it on. I put it on charge, the red Led blinks. Connects and then disconnects when using data cable to connect with PC. The connect-disconnect loop goes on for as long as it isn't unplugged. Now, i cannot enter fastboot mode or recovery . Does it has hardware issues such as Pin, main,.. ?. Anyone encountered this problem?
Thanks.

I met the same problem but I don't know how to solve it

I know I may be 4 years too late, but this is usually an issue of an overdischarged battery, maybe leave it on a charger or open the device and check the battery voltage.

S7 exynos freeze and reboot and freeze again on boot screen even in safe mode and recovery mode

hi all, ive had my s7 for 3 years now, amazing phone, but a few weeks ago this freezing reboot problem appeared and idk whats going on, my phone isnt rooted, and ive never messed with custom OS or any of that, its on android 7 stock, the battery is still good, but im wondering if this freezing problem is software or hardware related, when it freezes and reboots it gets stuck on the first logo, if i dont force it to shut off it will stay that way or keep rebooting till it runs out of battery, so after i force it to shut off sometimes it reboots immediatly and sometimes it stays black for a while and boots randomly, i try to go into recovery menu and most times it freezes on no command screen and if i leave it there the phone gets incredibly hot, so i force shut it again and this time with the charger connected so it shows charging icon as if its shut down... i leave it for a while then turn it on and its working untill it freezes again... i am considering installing lineage os incase the firmware is corrupt but im not very familiar with all of this and after reading other posts where the user did way more complicated stuff and the problem maintained... im not sure if its really gonna work, so im looking for advice on here
