Help PLEASE HELP! Battery charge notification wouldn't stop, powered off, unable to power back on.

[wetbiker7]

My phone does the same thing. I'm hoping the method "let the battery die and charge it" works!!! But the notification lights up crazy and my screen flashes showing me the message "USB and charge" and when it's on vibration it goes crazy vibrating and when the ringtone is on it beeps. In scared what other method does anyone have. I think I might have to take it to the repair shop. Any more suggestions??? LMK. Thanks

I would try what LordVincent mentioned and make sure that your charging port is clean. If that doesn't work, try doing a factory reset? You'll lose everything on the phone if it's not backup up with an app like Titanium but as long as you have a gmail account you'll be able to get your contacts back. I don't know if you're rooted or not but you can do a factory reset even if you don't have root.

From a powered off phone, press volume up and power at the same time until a black screen with blue writing comes up, then let go of the buttons. Using the volume buttons, scroll down to the wipe data/ factory reset option. Use the camera button to select and do a factory reset. Hopefully that will fix your phone.

Hello, I already did that. I lost everything and it was still doing it Thank you for you're help But yea i did that turning off thing yesterday at night. I turned it on today and it was still doing it. Like yesterday it stopped for 2 hours. I guess when I was on Facebook and Instgram. But the worst thing is that it eats my battery. If you have any more suggestions, I would appreciated. Once again thank you for you're help

2 things that I would suggest.

1st- if the phone is still under warranty, send it back. Samsung will pay for everything and it normally takes less than 10 days. I know it'll BITE to be without your phone but at least they'll give it a complete run through. They may even replace the entire phone instead of just replacing the defective part.

2nd- if it's out of warranty, I would try using Odin and flash a whole new image. You can actually try this method too before sending it in for warranty if that option is available.

Hi thank you for you're suggestion. I went to a phone repair shop. They said that they cn't fix it. However, (finger's crossed) it stopped doing it like 4 hours ago. I am going to see what happens tonight and tomorrow when I charge it and unplug it. I'll try the "let the phone die and charge it to 100%" once again and I'll let you know if it had some work. If you find anything new let me know, thanks

 

[Davidcha18]

So it been like 7 hours that it stop doing that notification thing so idk yet. Don't wanna get my hopes up. So I'll see later on today or tomorrow my phone is about to die. I 'll let you all know if it has FINALLY stop

 

[wetbiker7]

Great. I hope that it's fixed.

Hello again ,
I wanted to know why my did that? Why would it beep, vibrate, and flash thinking it was charging when really it was unplugged ? I never dropped my phone and it's in good condition with cover and everything ? Why did it that ?

 

[Lordvincent 90]

Most times it occurs because there it's something in the charging port (lint, or some other obstruction) that is making the phone think there is a charger attached. This has happened to me several times.
Each time i just folded a dollar Bill to a point and fished around GENTLY and then used a can of compressed air (Duster) to blow into the port and everything went back to normal.
Ymmv.

Edit-just read that you already tried this... Lol.

My phone is charging backwards. What's going on with that?

 

[rosher2000]

This problem is caused by malfunction of internal logic circuit usually appers in the first days or weeks, samsumg previal and transform they have the same problem ,
The only way to get fixed is claim the samsung factory defects warranty ,
They know about it, but they shutt off the mouth, to save some money from this defect and let the end user pay for it and the surence company and also the end user.

Hey, I have a problem with my samsung galaxy s2 as well although it is a bit different from the problem of this thread. My phone keeps turning off randomly after I use it for about 10 minutes and I factory reseted my phone but it still does that. Also, the battery looks a bit bloated and I don't know what to do Please help!
