For the last few weeks, I've noticed that most days my watch won't stay on all day. It will just randomly power off and when I try to power it back on the screen will light up with the start up screen and then go back off. When I get home and put the watch on the charger, the battery is rarely dead. In fact the lowest I've seen the battery when I've put it on the charger is around 46%. So, why does my watch just arbitrarily turn off (and not come back on) when the battery is clearly not drained? Anybody else experience this issue?

First day of a new job so I put my phone on a Work profile using PhoneWeaver (paid). Had the phone vibrate a few times telling me I had emails, and then one last time telling me the battery was almost dead, then it died. Had 6 hours of life out of it, not even joking.
Once I got to the car to charge it and head home, the phone went into the display where the battery icon shows up and the phone is off, but flashed a yellow warning triangle with a red thermometer next to it on the right side of the battery. Wish I had a camera on me to take a picture, but I immediately pulled the battery door off and placed it on an A/C vent on the car, and the phone died again since it wasn't connected to the charger anymore.
When I finally got the phone home and charging, I went to the battery status screen to see what was draining the battery, and even though it was showing what was going on since the power cycle, it showed the Display was accountable for 94% - still not convinced, I went to my PhoneWeaver settings to see if the Work profile had Wifi or GPS on the whole day, and it didn't have anything out of the ordinary. Only thing I can come up with is that when the emails and texts came in and I didn't check them, my phone unlocked in my pocket and left the screen on the whole day.
Has anyone else seen the overheating / temp warning screen on the battery status level display when the phone is off? What caused it in your situation? I have a hard time believing that if I wear heavy khaki shorts as I've been doing since I got the phone on the 19th, the phone won't unlock and in turn won't overheat, but when I wear dress pants on my first day of work at a new job, the phone unlocks, runs the display all day, and my lightweight slacks make the phone overheat????
sorry for the long narrative, I just wanted to give all the details of what happened in case anyone has any advice or similar experiences.... thanks in advance!
never, i recommend restoring factory settings and using it as is for a day and see if this happens again. It could be something you installed. If you have a similar experience, return your phone and get a replacement.
make sure they replace your battery incase it got fked from the overheating caused by the phone.
well, day two of work and my phone is just now at 20 percent, 14 hours later, lots of texts and emails and everything else
Ok I have searched and not found anything like this yet so I am going to ask. I know the phone has battery problems all around for a lot of people. Mine seems to be fine when it is on. It can sit and idle powered on all day locked and stay at full charge. It runs about 10 hours with minimal use and maybe 8 hours with some data use and a few calls and texts. Now I am experiencing a wired problem. When I go to work we cannot have cell phones. I leave my phone in my locker and power it off. After my 12 hour shift is up at work I come back to the phone with a dead battery? What could be causing this? And has anyone else noticed this issue?
defective battery? pull the battery and see if it still does it. If it does, gotta be a defective battery.. if it doesn't do it when pulled, you're not shutting off the phone maybe?
Yesterday I tried leaving the battery out. I took the battery out and let it sit 12 hours and it still had full charge when I put it back in. When I go to work I long press on the power/lock button and choose Power off then I watch it shut down and it just dies before I come back. I wish I could watch it the whole time. Today I left the phone off for around 6 hours and came back and it was fine though. Maybe it gets turned on some how at work. I have no idea. Or when I go to power it on it is just the issue where the phone isn't reading battery % correctly and it just says 0%
Seems like a battery driver issue or a defective battery? definitely call t-mobile and check if it's the battery. I've had some issues as well, but not that bad.
Weird.
So the phone powers off after you turn the screen on and it won't come back on? Try putting the phone in airplane mode.
Also, I'm assuming you are running the stock roms?
Might also want to check into a battery monitor to see if any 1 thing is pulling it down.
I think it might just be the battery driver. Sounds like the phone is in suspend so it doesn't power off properly until the screen is turned on and is revived, updating the battery % status, seeing 0%, and turning off.
CM7 fixed the wonky battery issue a few nights ago. Right now, I think a current CM based rom is the best bet as it has most of the drivers fixed. I'ved used mine pretty heavily today, unplugged at 8am and I just got a 15% battery warning at 11:30pm. It will usually last until I go to bed at midnight but I might want to play with it some more.
Hey guys. I always restart my phone before I go to bed, and I never charge it overnight. I just charge it the 1,5 hrs I have before I leave the house in the morning.
Usually this works fine, but this morning the phone was very hot. Very very hot. I've never held a so hot handset before. I had to hold down power and volume to even get it on.
It went from 60-ish to 27% overnight and as you can see from the screenshot, there's a hole in the graph, with no apps apparently being logged as consumers overnight.
Anyone got any ideas about this?

might want to do a full charge and see if problem persists. meaning 0-100%
1. Clear all app in task manager. Restart phone sometimes.
2. To force phone shutdown, press both Power button + Volume up button at same time.
I had an incident with the watch. Went on swiming pool and barbecue all day long. The water lock mode was on.
After some hours the watch turned off.
Then I started to charge it and for some reason it was dead. (red light blinking). I was able to see micro particles of water inside the back of the watch.
I placed it on rice and next day it turned on. But all sensors were dead.
Reset and nothing.
Then I left it turned off at the charger for like 12 hours and I can back to life.
In the middle of the process the update came along. I tried to install it hoping to get sensors back.
After everything the battery last about 10 or 12 hours.
Even when in "battery save mode" it wont last longer.
When I charge it, when it hits 100% instead of green light, sometimes it keep charging for a while.
I 'm not sure if the battery needs calibration or if it is something else.
I tried to *#0228# at dial and I can see battery information. But I dont have parameter to compare
What to do?
Sending to samsung is not an option. I bought it in another country and they don't offer services.
Have you fix it?
Last night after a couple of hours playing game, i fall asleep accidentally with my game still running.
When i woke up, i saw my phone turn off. I charging my phone then.
When i plug in the cable, the phone start charging at 5%. As for my experience usually when battery drop, it start charging at 0%.
So, it make me think that my phone turn off automatically when battery capacity drop below 5%.
I don't have complain about it. Instead, its a great feature for me who have bad habit.
But i still haven't found how to setting it up.
I want to setting it so my phone will turn off after battery capacity below 10%, not 5%.
So any solution to do that?
