So for the past week I've had the strange problem of N5 randomly shutting down, but ONLY when my screen is on. if I'm listening to music, I can listen until my battery runs out, but if I'm looking up stuff or playing a game, it'll shut down after a few minutes at varying lengths of time(It's a sudden shutdown so my screen just goes black when I'm in the middle of something).
After it has shut itself down and I try to turn it on then it'll turn off after the boot animation and before the lock screen shows. If I want it back on then I can get it start up again if I have it connected to a charger until the lockscreen shows and it'll act like normal(besides the whole random shutdowns)after I unplug it. I also don't have this problem when it's plugged in.
I've tried changing roms, kernels, and flashing the stock firmware with no success. I'm currently on XTraSmooth(Lollipop) with ElementalX 4.04 kernel.
Mmm dead battery?

Could be a problem with my battery, but if it was, would my phone also die when the screen is off and I'm listening to music for hours. Also when I plug it in just to turn it on then the battery percentage isn't low, tho it might drop a little.

Hi all,
i've got a normal nexus s, not rooted or anything, its running 2.3.2 as i haven't had the OTA yet. However strange things have started happening this week with regards to my battery.
I can no longer shutdown the phone whilst its plugged in, it goes through the motions, vibrates and then just hangs on the dimmed screen with shutdown on it. when i unplug the cable, it switches off. However, when i then plug the cable in, it starts up the phone, instead of just charging when switched off with that white battery meter.
It has also stopped recognising that it has been plugged in on the battery use info screen, so it is saying that i have been on battery power for almost 6 days now.
Its not a dealbreaker for me, but i haven't tinkered with anything, and its just plain annoying. I'm starting to think its just shizzle samsung hardware. Anyone any ideas? Or same thing happened? Cheers.
Hello guys.
I have my Sensation and I did (100% correctly) its S-OFF, I install the touch recovery which worked fine, I even try like 4 or 5 ROMs until I get to AOKP Build 40. Then one night suddendly my phone turned off, I've tried to wake it up powering on but it did like a small vibration and the screen did a small blink, so I think it was the battery with low charge. I put the phone to charge connecting the charger and sometimes I see the orange led static, sometimes it blinks, sometimes it turns off almost immediately and sometimes it get static in orange (charging) and in a while go to green (charged 100%). By pressing the power button just a few times I has powered on, sometimes it freezes in AOKP logo, sometimes it pass it, enter into Android and then freeze, but almost everytime it never powers on, it just make small vibrations like every 4 seconds until I put the battery off and when I connect it via USB sometimes the screen blinks like if my phone is trying to turn on but something is preventing from doing it. Right now the last time it turn on was like 2 days ago, from that day it just do what I've explained. I've tried to power it on, VolDown+Power, etc. and nothing.
Can anyone tell me what happened to this phone? Some people told me is a software matter, some tells me is the battery. The thing is I have no idea what it is.
I have used XDA and Google like a demon and nothing. That's when I do the thing I hate the most: Make a thread.
Please help me on this, I need that phone returned from the state it is right now.
Thank you so much for reading me.
Best regards.
can you boot to recovery?
Is it a stock battery or anker battery? Sometimes the battery doesn't sit tightly on the contacts, place some paper between the top of the battery and the housing. I have never heard of your problem before but I have dealt with bad contacts and they have some similarities.

So about 2 weeks ago, i rooted my phone and flashed over the nightly version of CWM. Ran fine for about a week, afterwards i noticed a big battery drain. Then started the freezes, and finally the random restarting. During this time, it would commonly get my battery percentage wrong( Ex: It would say 20% but then die. I would turn it back on and it would say 5. Take out the battery, put it back in, and it would say something like 12%.) Yesterday, i had about 20% left, and it just turns off. Wont turn back on. I get home, plug it up, and its in a charging screen boot loop. Plug in-Go to charging screen-Turn off-repeat. It will do that repeatedly, as long as it's plugged in. I've looked it up, and it looks like it's the SDS (Sudden Death Syndrome) and that Samsung can only fix it under warranty. The problem is, I didn't get this through a carrier contract, i bout it basically new online. Any help? Anyone have advice on how to fix it, or what to do?
Odin back to stock and see if it still happens.

Why are you double posting? You already posted this in the Q&A section, you're causing more work for moderators by doing this. Posting once is enough.

Hello guys I'm experiencing a extrange things with my phone. I try to be clear and precise.
First of all, I have the 64 GB 1+1 with Latest BlissPop + AK Kernel + Xposed + Greenify + Amplify.
Now the issues that I´m suffering:
-I think that I have a extrange battery drain
-When I plug the phone while it´s ON for charging it, the phone it stucks at 97% or 99%, it depends on the day.
-When I plug the phone while it´s ON for charging it randomly stop and start charging, so annoying :S
-If I plug the phone while it´s OFF, I don´t see any kind of problem in the charge or at least I don´t see anything extrange
-I think that I have a huge battery drain with average use
-The screen of my phone turns ON constantly while the phone is on my desktop without any kind of notification being displayed
I don´t know how to provide logs for that issues if you can tell me I provide all that you need. Also I was thinking if that kind of issues can be related and solved flashing all again (ROM, Kernel etc)
Thanks in advance.

Are you using the original OnePlus usb cable that was supplied with the phone? Do you have Ambient Display enabled?

Thanks for your fast answer, you always help me!!!
Answering your questions, yes I always use the original usb cable and charger and I have Ambient Display disabled now, the screen now is normal, no more random wake ups.
I test the rest of my issues today and post my results.
Kind regards

Hello again Heisenberg,
With ambient display off, seems like a lot of my problems are gone, the only issue that it´s still with me is that when I plug the phone while it´s ON for charging it randomly stop and start charging, if I turn the phone off, all it´s ok and the phone reach the 100% without any kind of problem.
Kind regards.

Plug your phone to the charger and leave it for a while. Press the power button,in the lock screen what does it show ? Charging or "x" minutes to charge the battery full (where x is the time, say 25 minutes, 1hr etc)
As I've noticed when "x" minutes to charge battery full appears in lock screen the device tends to charge slowly( it'll take about 15-20 to get 1%) so I remove my charger and then plug it again then It starts charging normally..
Try and see [emoji4]
Peace

So I got this used Nexus 5 to play around with and there's an odd issue.
The phone appears to turn on normally and at cold boot it manages to go to the home screen of a freshly flashed slim rom. I can be there for a few seconds, then it'll randomly decide to shut off. I'm not sure but the temperature feeling from the back and screen feels hot to the touch. Meaning cpu temp is going high. My other nexus 5 doesn't appear to have that problem. The battery is acting weird as well. When I had the original battery on there it would just go to the google logo and would shut off right after. Should I plug in a brand new oem battery? I have a knock off battery and it worked fine on my other phone except the capacity was much lower. I thought it might be temperature related so I tried making an aluminium heat sink and thermal paste for the cpu, but nothing changes. I will link to video in a bit. Also the only way the phone responds after is by plugging in the phone cable to any power source. Don't judge the vertical framing it just happened. I tried to replicate it again all normal like and the phone stops at the 4 color dots and the phone shuts down as if the battery was removed. It doesn't respond until plugged into usb power.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4FMvVge9pPs&feature=youtu.be. I can't seem to post links yet, but this shows the issues I'm having.
*temperature seems to be 50c idle on the TWRP screen. While comparing to my other phone which is 30c. That seems off.
update: I fresh installed android 4.0 stock and I have to remove the battery ribbon cable and press it back in to get the phone to go home screen for about 5 seconds. the battery ribbon cable and the whole motherboard does seem to get very hot to the touch. What is happening? What could be eating up. Maybe that's why the phone is trying to shut itself down to prevent overheating damage.
there's no android 4.0 for nexus 5 :V oldest android for N5 is 4.4
