[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
not aware that safe mode allowed you to cherry pick which apps you wanted to be enabled or not. from my experiance, all user apps were disabled and that was it. What is doable in regular mode is disable all your apps and do the same thing enable or disable. but to me it would be much more conveniant to wipe everything. then if the issue is gone, reinstall app by app till you hit the culprit. but anyways to each his own.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
Exactly,to each their own,but,factory reset seems like the last resort/nuclear option... why go that route 1st?
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
because the feature he has issues with is a system level feature and i would doubt an app could affect it. and if a system setting was changed then wiping is a sure way to get that reverted.

just my 2 cents
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
Package Disabler Pro is a user installed app & it has profound effects on system apps functions (depending on what the user disables) ,so,that's where I'm coming from.

Using safe mode is a natural step in troubleshooting before resorting to a factory reset,regardless of what is assumed to be the obvious next step.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] bober10113:
point taken.

but it would also be obvious to the said user that if he or she would have disabled stuff in the manner you explained, they would not post here for help as it would have been obviously caused by his or hers own doing.

anyways, we're not getting anywhere here.

have a good day.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] KOLIOSIS:
I hear ya,it's all good,the OP has input from several users/options on how to troubleshoot,that's what's ultimately important.

You have a good day as well,see ya 'round the forum. :good:

I am having the exact same issue this morning with my Note 9. I restored from my Note 8 backup, so I do have a lot of programs that have migrated over. I'll have to sort through them and see what I come up with. Hopefully, the OP figures it out and let's us know what they did.
[Samsung Galaxy Note 9 Questions & Answers] TechOut:
This happens to me when I restore something and it's trying to connect to an old bluetooth device like my car. The car sees the phone as the same but the phone doesn't see the car as a paired devices so the screen comes on everytime it tries to pair

If you restored from a backup make sure you dont have any old bluetooth devices trying to connect to your phone

Hello Everyone!

It's great to finally be a part of the xda community!

I have been having problems with the random shutdowns on Nexus 6 for quite some time. Earlier this used to happen when the battery was around 30-40%. However, in the last 3-4 days it has happened regardless of what the battery level was!

In fact just yesterday, the device shut down immediately after I tried to unlock the screen after manually starting it (this happened 4 times!)

So I finally took copied dmesg and recovery logs using TWRP, but I couldn't make heads or tails of them :confused:

Hope you people can help me isolate the problem here.

P.S. Before you ask , I have looked through the different posts on this issue and have tried multiple roms (Stock, Lineage and am on Pixel Experience now). Just want to confirm its not a software issue before I finally bite the bullet and go for a battery replacement which would set me back quite a bit (service centers in India charge a lot!).

P.P.S. I tried to attach the dmesg and recovery logs but could not since I haven't completed 10 posts yet. Could anyone tell me how I can share them?

Thanks!
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
You don't need logs, you need a battery [emoji6]

If you're careful and attentive, you can replace the battery yourself. You need a *good* set of torx screwdrivers, plastic case tools, a hair drier (on low) or hot water bottle (type thing)/heating pad to warm the glue holding the back on. I also suggest a magnifying glass so you can ensure the head of the driver is square into the head of the screw do it doesn't strip.

If you use wireless charging, getting a replacement battery with the coil included makes life easier.

Don't force anything and watch YouTube videos before attempting to release cables from connectors.

Thanks for the prompt reply!

My biggest issue with replacing the battery myself is getting a good quality one...

Amazon does have a wide selection of these batteries but there's no way of knowing whether they're good (no reviews!).

Do you know where (website/local store in India) I can get a reliable replacement battery?

Thanks again!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
No, sorry, I have no experience with sourcing batteries outside of the US. The one I bought from Amazon 2 years ago is running strong still. At least as good as the original.

Have you tried rebooting into safe mode and then boot back into normal mode? See if it does anything beneficial.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
Can't remember if I've tried that... Will try it out and let you know how it turns out. :good:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
So it's been 7 hours and I have just had my first random shutdown at 45% battery.

Booting into safe mode definitely helped! One random shutdown is infinitely better that what I was facing earlier.

Thing is, I don't know whether it can improve beyond that.

What are your thoughts?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
If it gets worse again, try rebooting to the bootloader, then use the volume buttons to scroll through to "bootloader logs". Press and hold the power button >7 seconds, until the device reboots.

That's not cleared as part of a clean flash, but I believe it is when booting to safe mode. If that helps, I'm convinced your battery needs to be replaced.

"find somebody that you think is undeserving of your compassion and give it to them" - Christian Picciolini
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 8880810:
Only time can tell if it can improve further. So you had a random shutdown at 45%, can you run your phones battery down to 0% or does it get to a point that it acts as if the battery is fully drained?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
Well, after rebooting from the safe mode earlier, I ran my phone's battery down (kept the screen and torch on) till 3% before it shut down. After it shut down I tried to drain the battery further by using the bootloader, but I don't know how much using it drained the battery.

Since it wasn't draining completely, I charged it without switching it ON till 80% or so...
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
I tried this yesterday, but it caused weird problems withy phone such as disabling the WiFi :eek:

By disabling, I mean I couldn't turn it ON at all! Luckily, everything went back to normal after I rebooted the device again! :victory:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
Just had two back to back shut downs..:eek:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Deleted member 8880810:
Are you using Greenify or any 3rd party power management? Is the phone running hot before shut down? Have you checked your ram usage to see if you have anything eating up your ram? Have you tried a clean flash without installing any backups? I did see some people having random shut downs in the Pixel Experience thread. Have you had a chance to compare your situation with others there? I know your problem occurred before you installed Pixel Experience but many roms are built on the same base, such as Lineage.

---------- Post added at 07:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:27 PM ----------

Also do as [MENTION=6617276]ktmom[/MENTION] suggested and reboot into bootloader and scroll to bootloader logs to see if it shows anything there that might give you further insight. Seems that your battery is cycling fine though. One thing I have done differently was that after battery reaches that 3% level, reboot it into recovery and let it drain further. You may have to plug it into a power source initially to boot it into recovery but once in recovery you should be able to unplug it and let the battery drain to shutdown. Then plug it back in and boot into recovery by holding power button and volume down till it boots into recovery. Then I would charge it to 100% while in recovery. This worked better for me when I had similar issues on my Nexus 5.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
BTW, you may reach a point where the N6 shuts down and battery does not appear to charge. If this happens, use a low power charger, a computer USB port is perfect, and charge for at least an hour. Then unplug the charging cable and plug it back in. If the white battery charging animation displays, you can switch to a fast charger.

The screen may go black but the device is on. Again, use a low power charger for an hour, then with it still plugged in, press and hold the power button for to force a reboot. Then switch to a fast charger if you want.

If either of the above happens, you have run out of choices and must replace the battery.

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
I have Greenify installed but haven't configured it. I do have AccuBattery installed but that shouldn't affect power management, right?

No, the phone doesn't seem to be hot before shut down.

Yes, I have checked RAM usage. There doesn't seem to be any leakage.

Yes, I have tried clean flash. The current rom install is a clean flash.

I checked the Pixel experience forums after you mentioned it and did find a post with a random shutdown issue. But, it seems to be somewhat different.

The bootloader logs only show the reason for entering fastboot - a single line of text nothing else.

I have done as you suggested and discharged the phone while in recovery... Let's see if that works out!:fingers-crossed:

I didn't really understand what you meant here. But, I have been able to charge my phone from the laptop or from low power chargers from shutdown.

The second part (screen goes black but device is on), does not occur.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
[UPDATE]

Discharged the battery to 0% in the recovery and charged it to full without turning it on. Just had the first random shutdown of the day (7 hrs) while playing Clash of Clans.

One point to note, I wasn't doing any heavy stuff till I opened CoC.

[Edit] forgot to mention the battery percentage at shutdown. It was 54%

Not yet... Still have to order it.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akmsr:
It's your battery and there is no way around it. It will progressively get worse. The longer you wait the chance of semi-melted battery damaging the components inside increases. It will be harder for you to take the back cover off. There is a chance you will snap off the protective plastic right under the cober or the middle frame underneath the battery. If you are careful and take your time, like an hour everything should be all right. All of these problems will go away.

After I swapped mine I charged fully and used gently for 48 hours and took the charge down to 9% before charging again. No reboot.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
I recieved the battery yesterday. However, I'm waiting to set aside some time to replace it. Like you guys said, I don't want to rush it.

Will let you know how it works out. :fingers-crossed:
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fueled:
ok after replacing the battery. test it thoroughly and report back.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] akmsr:
Watch YouTube videos as many times as possible. You will need one T3 and one T4 driver. You won't know which one will work for you. Whenever you are using the spudger, careful around the sides and close to the ports. Specially next to power and volume rocker. Ribbons are ran through those areas. A needle nose plyers will be needed to take off the connectors from battery and power button. They are snap off but have to be extra careful not to tear the ribbon off the connecters.

In the beginning its very easy to strip the tiny screws. After exchanging the battery and putting the screws back connect the charger to see if it charges and whether the power, volume work, then close the back cover.

Sorry about the long-winded post but as a noob I had to be extra careful and everything went just fine.
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
Hi everyone!

I finally changed my battery on Monday. The only place where I had trouble was getting the battery out because of one part that was exceptionally well glued.

But, all went well and I replaced the battery.

After install, the battery was at 40%, a charge that lasted me for almost 4 hours before it powered down at 2%.

Completely charged it on Tuesday morning and used it for the entire day without a single random shutdown! :victory:

For those in India, these are the links from where I ordered the battery and the tools:

The toolkit (does not include pliers) from Amazon: https://goo.gl/Bs5eBG

The battery from ShopClues: https://goo.gl/gQgpGN

Imp: I've heard that ordering from ShopClues can be like shooting in the dark. Check the seller rating before ordering and check the product immediately after you get it. I used an ammeter to check the voltage of the new battery before installing it.

Attached are the images of the new battery, the Amazon Basics toolkit and a screenshot of the AccuBattery reading.

Thank you everyone for all your help!

[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
Good job! And thanks for updating.

The only thing I would suggest, is to fully charge the battery after install instead of running on the factory partial charge.

"find somebody that you think is undeserving of your compassion and give it to them" - Christian Picciolini
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] pranavlawate:
Yes, that's what I did...

I ran out on the factory charge till it shutdown on its own. Then I charged it completely without turning it on.

I assume that's what you meant?
[Nexus 6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ktmom:
No, just like is recommended on a new phone, I would have charged first. Not run the partial charge down and then charge. The opposite from what you describe.

[OnePlus 6 Questions & Answers] Stoowyguy:
Obviously each kernel is unique in its blood sweat and tears. Just try them all and leave em on for a few weeks. Usually the older toolchains have better battery and more stability in my testing. The benefit of certain kernels are exculsive CPU scaling governors modded by the developer. Currently running pappschlumpf's Smurfkernel with smurfutil battery profile spectrum on havoc nightly. I look for stability though and for stock OOS all kernels run pretty solid. One thing you need to be sure is that the kernel manager is locking frequencies otherwise I find a kernel that allows this. Lately I've had some trouble on blu kernel
