Phone enters recovery mode when I connect to DC charge

Hi all,
I searched the forum but couldn't find a related problem.
My case happens like this:
I close (shut down) the phone properly. Then I connect it to DC Charge and it enters the recovery mode. Is there any reason and solution for this problem?
I'm using TheFrankestain Mod (on original DDLF2) + S3 Theme by Androman1507 + Bam bck kernel fix 14.
I have been using this rom for 1,5 weeks and unfortunately didn't realize if it was happening from the beggining.
I will be grateful to any help...
(Edit:Correction)

try remove battery atleast 1minute , then press all buttons .vol down,vol up, power, and home button. Atleast 5times each. .then try to put battery in your unit. Your problem was happened to me.

Sorry but this started to happen again. I realized that it happens just after I take a cwm backup... I'm using Bam kernel 14fix. Is there any permanent solution for this? I don't wanna remove the battery everytime...

try custom roms.

I dont think its related with rom, because i tried another alarm app and it worked fine. My problem is with stock alarm app..

[Q] Device shutdown help please

Hey, my device shuts down after a while, regulary and often every day shuts down at any moment and I have to reboot it and nothing... I wait a few minutes with the battery taken off and then turn on and sometimes starts ok, but it shuts down again on the samsung boot ...
May it be the battery which is broken or the device itself. Please help
Thanks

there are so many questions that we expect from a OP.. like did you rooted your phone if yes then what ROM you are using?did you overclock??? what kernel?? and if it is not rooted then please mention that also... shutdowns/reboots happens on custom rom sometimes... its normal when your device get overclocked my ROM there is a possiblty at hot conditions it will shutdown/reboot.. but if these shutdowns/reboots happen on stock rom with no root access then you might me in trouble... this might the motherboard issue,overheating... if not rooted go to service center and get it checked.
PS:why did you wait for few mins after it shutsdown and take out the battery... why dont you jusy start it at that moment?

Doesnt matter guyz, thanks anyway!!!!
I solved the problem by getting a new battery for my i9003L and buala! No turn-off.
By the way I had that trouble with stock rom and custom rom with and without root, etc; gingerbread, ics and jelly bean.

[Q] not enough words can describe my problem

i think im ****ed.. i would like opininos suggestions..im desperate right now lol sounds bad i know however
first :my power button does not seem to want to work anymore
secondly: i noticed there was a basband and firmware update and i downloaded mf1 and the modem
third: i went into my quick setings since my power buton is broken and clicked on recovery mode and clicked ok
fourth: i waited .. the little blue words appeared in the top left corner as usual, and then it says samsung galaxy s3 and hangs for a minute then shuts off and turns back on.. continuing the loop.
possiblly important infomation;
my battery level was only 24 percent and i think if i charge it up or try to get it to charge that it may work out
your probably wondering what i do when my phone dies ..
well i put it on the charger and it turns on and the charging screen pops up with the battery
then i unplug the phone and it boots up without me touching the power button .
any information will be apprciated thanks ahead of time
BTW the phone was purchased the first day it was released i think the warrenty is expired
THANKS

The same power button issue happened to me a few weeks ago. I found a YouTube video of a guy who demonstrated slamming his phone on a table to fix it. Now I know what your thinking sounds stupid but it worked for me. Hold your phone so the side with the power button is flat on the table (this is how it needs to land). Then lift it and slam it down. I used a mouse pad to cushion the impact. Took like 20 tries but its been good ever since.

i forgot to mention.. i was planning on letting the phone completely die and then giving it some juice to see if that breaks the loop or sends it into normal boot mode i dont have the screw driver small enough to unscrew the back, if i did do you think holding the power button on the board will break the loop?

As I said it took me a few tries I also remember putting a crappy thumdrive under the mouse pad to get more impact on the button. Not sure how hard I did it. Oh and take your battery out.

Trust me I know the feeling. I had soft bricked my phone after I tried to downgrade from 4.3 (before the fix was found) right after I thought I found the solution my phone was doing the power loop. Scared the crap out of me.

can i update my firmware and baseband with odin ? or do you reccommend me downloading clockwork mod and using that instead of teamwin ? i want slim kat .. seems alot better then this 4.1.3 bull**** lol .. althought the bone stock rom was very very very trusty.
my next question is should i instal the firmware first hen the modem then the rom i want ?

I personally like twrp more. yes you can update that stuff with odin i think there are links in the development section. As long as you do a factory reset and dalvik format you should beable to flash whatever you want now. It is recommended to be on at least 4.1.2 modem for ROMs. If you flash the 4.3 modem make sure it is only the modem and not the full firmware. You will be on a locked bootloader if you do.

[SLOVED] My phone reboots itself !
Hi, i just find out that my SIM card was making phone reboot...

i have a the same problem with my SGS2+, how you figure out that its SIM fault? And what SIM should be to don't make reboots?

So, actually your SIM is okey . Problem is your OS. I took my phone to repair and they just installed a new update that "Samsung" released... It's still 4.2.2.

Hey everyone.. I have a problem with the Samsung Galaxy S II Plus.. It just turned off while I was sleeping (battery full charged) and in the morning I couldn't turn it on again.. And it's not working since then..
Does anyone knows the possible solution..? The phone is not rooted..

It's called Sleep of Death - google for it, "seems" a well know issue especially for the s2+.
For some it happens 2-3-4 times/day (poor souls!) other once every two weeks (doable). It has to be an hardware malfunction, maybe a batch of Chipset (from Broadcom) do not toletare frequency/voltage down throttling (on standard firmware) and hangs >:
No clear indication where does it come from (app, driver, official recognition from Samsung), quick advice: some users report no SoD after they flash Omnirom - others just flash a new kernel, other remove the SD card or install some app to prevent Deep Sleep or awake it every X minutes.
If you can German peek here: http://www.android-hilfe.de/samsung...creen-death-nach-4-1-2-jelly-bean-update.html
I should get my hands on a s2+ with Sod.
Another "cold" suggestion, root it, flash a kernel or a new ROM and install "SetCPU": then try different CPU Governors, I higly suspect that something different from the original "Ondemand" could improve the situation (given the implementation is not faulty per se). - or, if the kernel allow that, try to apply NOT undervolting but a slight overvolting for the 200Mhz state.. but so far it's a (gratuitous, generic) wild guess (45 days I can start experimenting :good.
Hold tight and See ya! :fingers-crossed:
