Random shutdowns to 0% battery - Samsung Galaxy S7 Questions and Answers

Hello all
I have a G-930F running stock 7.0 Nougat and am not rooted. Recently my phone randomly shuts down and when restarted manually says the phone as 0% battery, despite the phone being on 60% before turning off. I got a 64gb micro SD card for Christmas which is the only major change I have made to my phone. Does anyone know what could be causing this/do I need to fit a new battery?
Please find attached a screenshot of my battery usage.

Could be the battery has failed, not uncommon amongst the S7's from the number of people I see complaining about the same thing
Could try clearing cache from recovery, and even a factory reset just to be sure it's not firmware related
Maybe even flash stock again with ODIN

Thanks for your response
Ive wiped the cache, if it continues will factory reset/flash stock
Might just be easier to get a new battery tbh

Probably, but would suck if you went through the whole process of heatgun removing the back of the phone, killing the IP68 waterproofing, warranty etc, just to find it still did it because of firmware
Probably is the battery though

Where are you (and your phone) when this happens?
It might be related to cold temperatures.
I had a similar issue anytime I use my phone out in the cold, the battery drops almost instantly.

I'm in London and it is quite cold, I'll take note of the temperature when/if it happens again, maybe even turn up the heating hahah
It happened today afternoon and it was very cold, and this morning where it also was quite cold so this could play a part, weird tho as I'm also in Sheffield where it is also quite cold and this problem didn't occur

I'm right on the coast of the North East UK and it's snowing and icy outside, very cold in the mornings in the house before heating comes on, and no issue with the S7 battery (My iPad screen is so cold it needs wiping before I can use it, like condensation over the screen)
Although if the battery was on it's last legs anyway, it's possible the cold could affect it in ways it wouldn't to a healthy battery

I don't know how accurate AccuBattery is in telling the health of the battery, but it is in very poor condition, I've also reformatted my sd card, and the phone has not yet restarted (fingers crossed), will probably replace the battery in the new year

I've been getting the same experience .. I live in NL and it's not that cold .. the last time it happen was just now, and it's 12 degree outside ..
I think it got something to do with the last update (that was the last major change I had) ..

So yesterday it happened again so I removed the SD card however about 2 minutes ago it happened again, so I think it is due to the battery itself, will have to replace in the new year since I made my warranty invalid by getting my screen replaced and they removed the gold sticker on the inside

I have now replaced the battery, turns out the original had swollen quite considerably, as you can hopefully see in the pictures. The battery should be as thick as the black section and the grey part entirely on the bottom face.
Will report back if random restarts/switching off still occurs

Yea that's when it starts filling with gas, the plastic casing is airtight, but the gas is flammable if it leaked, I've had an MP3 player do that and the battery swole up so much it popped the front off the MP3 player, it was almost rounded
Hopefully your problems are solved

been two days no issues so the new battery seems to have done the trick
i did tweet samsung about the swollen battery, they gave me a call but since i did the repair myself they obviously won't look into it, but didnt answer my question about whether or not this was a known issue/could it happen to other people etc

You solved it allready. ...

yesterday I received a software update for the phone ... so last night I let my phone run through the battery ... this morning I woke up and it still on with batt level around 39 percent ... before, I could never reach 50 percent .. It would go from 60 something percent than suddenly died ..

[Q] Android 5+ Unresponsive/Battery Drain

Having a very strange issue since upgrading to Android L -- thought I solved it switching to franco kernel -- but after 2 days it seems to have popped back up.
Randomly phone will be completely unresponsive via power button or any other means -- I can tell it is still doing things because the battery gets drained (incredibly quickly) and I see notification LED flashing when there are notifications. Only way to fix this is hard rebooting (power+vol down)
Oddly, when I look at the battery AFTER reboot this is how it looks (the empty area is during the lock up)

I initially thought this may be the sensor issue, but with the battery drain I am starting to think its something else (maybe memory leak?).
Anyone else facing this issue or have any insight on how to fix this?

have tried that a few times with no success. Problem only occurs in 5.0+ -- do not have this issue on 4.4 when i switch back over.
I have a similar problem with the phone turning off randomly and then in restart I've lost approx 50% or more battery life. If I turn the phone on and leave it alone for a few hours the battery slowly increases back to where it should be as if the phone can't read the stats right. I was going to sell up and buy a new phone but I love my Nexus and then remembered that Playstore Nexus devices have 2 yra warranty, even if you side load OTA updates.
I'm RMAing my phone with a replacement coming next week. Google confirmed that it was faulty but I suspect it's software and not hardware. To be fair the problem started with 5.0 and got worse with 5.0.1 and a cache delete and hard reset has not fixed it.
Can't wait for 5.1 in Feb but I'm sure there will be other bugs!

I called Google about something similar happening and they told me that if it was related to battery, the battery was only warratied for a year and they couldn't help me as it was out of warranty. Maybe I'll emphasize the restarting part.

It seems to definitely be a software issue -- if i downgrade to 4.4 the problem doesn't exist.
This is what people are complaining about with the "memory leak".
Reboot your phone nightly (while it's charging perhaps) and these issues will not appear. Otherwise, it might reboot on its own eventually anyways.
As you suspected, it's a software issue and nothing to do with the battery. The battery level changing drastically like that is common anytime the phone crashes or reboots itself and will calibrate itself eventually.
Google will RMA for software issues like this just to keep the customer happy but that won't help you in the long run, better to keep your non-refurbished device.

Is unstability caused by hardware or software issue?

Hello, as mentioned before, sometimes I cannot wake my device. The entire screen is blank. I have to keep pressing the power button many times to turn on the device. Sometimes I have to wait for 30 minutes or more and try again before the device turns on. Few months ago, I took it to Samsung. They said that it was due to a faulty screen. They replaced a new one for me but after about 2-3 weeks, same thing happen.
Recently, for a few days, the device also rebooted by itself like crazy. This happened especially when I used the stock Camera app to take photos. Sometimes it happened when I pressed the Camera app icon. In most cases, this happened when I pressed the button to shoot photo.
Few days ago, the screen brinked a few times and rebooted by itself. Even there were about 30% battery power, at one point it reported 0%. When I plugged the device to the power supply, the problem disappeared and the device charged.
Are these things due to software issue or hardware issue? As you know, the apps update by themselves often.

Battery's capacity fluctuation, flickering screen, auto reboot, auto shut down, are common caused by cracked battery connector.
You can inspect the battery connector under magnified glass, push it slightly right or left to see if it's moving. A battery connector with cracked solders will move easily by this test.
A quick rework will take under 5 minutes to melt and add more solders to the 6 pins of battery connector. A repair shop or anyone knows how to solder can help you.
This is what this connector looks like:

}
A quick test: slap hard on the back cover with your hand, your tablet will shut down immediately if the battery connector is badly cracked.
Be aware that some depot techs are technical incompetent to troubleshoot or repair a particular issue like this one.
Thanks. I performed the test you described. The tablet did not shut down immediately. I slapped it hard a few times. No shutting down. I suspect it is related to software because the issues seem to have happened in blocks of time. i.e. 1-2 days of problems. No problem. 1-2 days of problems, etc.

The quick test I mentioned only work with badly loose battery connector, the one that can lift off easily or move if pushed. Other cases, cracked solders cause intermittent power or quick discharge or running hot battery. Your intermittent problems could be some pins have crack but not all of them.
Believe me or not, this is not software but hardware problem common seen in Galaxy Note and others, I try to point to the right direction but it's up to you to figure out.
I had no problem with my device for a few weeks. Recently, very often the device restarted when I pressed the built-in camera app. Don't you think this is a software problem?

The easiest way to verify, back up then reset your tablet. If problem starts again with fresh system, this is not software but hardware problem.
However, flickering screen and auto reboot is not software. These problems often cause by cracked battery connector.
You need to read the " Flickering " thread to see what is the source of your problem. In this forum, it has more than 30,000 views and another forum ( Android Central ), it has more than 100,000 views. These numbers will tell, you are not the only one to have it.
I found that when the battery level is low, the device flickering and reboot by itself like crazy.

I think the only way to convince you this is not software problem: take the back cover off when battery is low, pressing directly on the battery connector, the flickering screen will stop immediately. Another user followed my advice, applied pressure on the battery connector helped his tablet to boot.

There are too many of them on Ebay or Amazon, you should have at least one Metal Spudger because other plastic tools are prone to break after few uses, but plastic tools cause less damages to the case with no experienced users.

My phone is haunted?

Hello all, I want to apologize ahead of time for the long post.
I recently lurked some threads to get my Honor 8 (L04 version) rooted. After 2 days of stress, near bricks and some tears I finally got set up,unlocked bootloader TWRP, Magisk root etc.
Now, I don't think this is related to that process but I happened to get a text message and when I turned on my screen, the lockscreen was "glitched" my wallpaper was the default one and half the screen was black like a dialog box should be there, kind of where the unlock pin numbers would take up space, except solid black. Then I picked up my phone and it worked fine.
Here is the thing, I have NFC off (by choice not because it broke during unlocking) but my phone was resting on top of a spare phone I use for music only when I go to the gym/running. The other phone is a BLU NEO X MINI. After some trial and error I think I know what is going on but not sure why.
If my phone is pressed up against that BLU phone and I shift it around my Honor 8 wakes up to the lockscreen. Sometimes my normal lockscreen sometimes the weird one that is glitched out. It doesn't do it if the phones are facing each other though screen to screen. I then tried with a very old EVO 3D I had and it doesnt do it either, and with an iPhone 4 and 5, also didn't cause it.
I 'm fairly certain the BLU does not have NFC but something is definitely weird. Any info would help.

If u have the time I'll recommend u to wipe ur phone and restore to stock for maybe a day before rooting again. The last time I tried rooting even my phone acted up, worse than urs in fact, I lost NFC and the firmware was corrupt so I didn't have WiFi working and I didn't have a keyboard.....

Better to rollback once or reset once.

Thank you for the replies. I believe I know what is causing it after some trial and error. I grabbed some rfid/nfc capable cards to see if it would trigger it and it didn't. So I started wondering what might cause it, I turned off the BLU phone completely then pressed it against my Honor 8 while it was on, and it locked the screen. I then wondered what if it was a magnetic thing, and googled for some answers and found another thread here about the smart cover causing an issue, that actually had a picture of what my screen looks like.

So at this point I believe it was the magnetic sensor for a smart cover on the Honor 8 just happens to be triggered by the BLU phone specifically, maybe the BLU has a magnet at the very front of the phone since even turning it back to back doesn't trigger it. Maybe others can try to experiment and reproduce the same result. For now I am just going to avoid magnets!

Yea it has happened to me before as well I recollect. It was in my Mom's bag and when I took it out the screen was the same but it fixed itself after turning off the screen once.

Hi,
here my*"FIFTH HONOR 8" (see screen)
I had a problem with a bug overnight when the phone was sleeping, lol gotta wonder...
The morning it was locked on mode "smart cover" overnight (maybe humidity... like I give a F) never activated anything from smart assistance... thanks anyways.
As in the screenshot I...* did try a DIY fix late in the night %) (I mean that last fix after a week of softer tryout) . too bad having no warranty...

BTW pics taken with my 6th honorf
On another note you could try a factory reset via SD card or computer adb .. I couldn't personally. Computer smasher and "proprietary open source" didn't save the day but who care I can always repair my screen with fake yellow tint glass.
And another one .. screen surviving later on :

Phone almost exploded because of kernel

Hi. Всем привет.
First of all, sorry for my English, sometimes I use Google Translate. I come from 4PDA forum and I want to share what happened to me.
I used malakas non oc for very long time, but I wanted to change to another kernel, since I heard that the developer stopped bringing updates, which made me chose another kernel. Someone recommended me Disrupt kernel for battery life. In the first day I felt that the battery went really bad, so I tried a clean flash my rom. Things went a little better, and I kept using it, until one day, when my phone started heating up. It got to 45C and I didn't even used my phone. I shut it down, but it was getting worst. I got scared, and put it into something cold so it can cool down. I let it there for like 3 mins, was better but then I started my phone and I saw that it was getting fast to 47C. I couldn't do anything. Stopped and put back to cold. After 10 min I restarted, and it had 50C. After just 2 min it got to 52C, the phone was VERY HOT! I called my friend and he told me to disconnect the battery. Well, last time I saw my battery showed 54C, so I had nothing else to do. I opened the phone, and disconnected my battery. IT WAS RUINED! I was not playing on the phone, mostly for VK, Instagram, youtube and calls, also the phone was NEW, barely used and in a very good condition, not droped or water damaged. Hardly I got it out, and my phone slowly cooled down. I bought another battery, installed Franco and now thinking to flash another kernel but I'm scared. Here is a picture about the battery, I was wearing glowes too so I don't burn myself. Happily my phone is ok now, and still works good.
Be careful guys with your phones. Now they told me not to flash a kernel from a noname dev, and I should always chose Franco, Arter or from someone well known!

Cool story
If you think the kernel caused the problem you could've gone Into recovery and reflashed your stock kernel.

I shut down my phone and it was still heating. I don't think reflashing kernel could fix it. It was too late anyways, and I didn't had time to think what to do. I did the easiest way and I'm glad I did that. Battery was a disaster, look pic.

Yeah it had nothing at all to do with any kernel.
Also @op I would either delete this thread or rename it and remove the part where you are blaming a certain devs work that clearly didn't cause your problem, because if I was that dev I would not be happy reading that

Then you can directly go find Xiaomi repair center to find out the problem. Warranty should cover this issue.
Show them the screenshot to prove to them.
Backup your data first. Maybe they will reset your phone.

So higher chance of hardware cause, maybe similar to the thread I posted. In that thread the person had written what he did.
Straight to Xiaomi repair center for help.

Ok I charged my phone to 94% and right now its 66%. Please check my battery graph to say how its going
WhatsApp and Meet(?). Using a lot of resources.
I wouldn't like either one run on my device.
It may be a malware related issue or a crap app(s)... be careful what you download.
I see a factory reset in your future... load more wisely on the next OS.

It might not happen right away. Just keep in mind it happen before. Use your phone as you wish.
If in the future your phone sudden shutdown, or the battery percentage behaves strangely, you can check the battery meter.
