really? odd, no i havent used a battery calibration tool, i do wipe battery stas when flashing. i wiped them last night and charged to full overnight. still wont power off today.

in recovery when you guys wipe battery stats does it tell you its erased them? i never see a confirmation that it actually has. is there a file somewhere i can delete?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wilnotdie:
Lol Big Toe!

On a side note, does anyone have any ideas on how to make the rom seem not rooted? I would like to get the new Google Video Movie Rentals working....from the new market app.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] nemiroG1:
I too, m getting this, System wipe then Superwipe did not fix it, either.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
well at least i can stop pulling my hair out, as long as im not the only one. i have no idea what could be causing it. i was even going to reflash hboot after work today and go buy a new battery. lol. i guess i will wait for more suggestions.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tvdang7:
Hey guys i just noticed something. I was playing with my sisters stock g2 and i couldnt help but notice how much brighter(not sure if thats the right word) and the icons look more crisp than cm7. is there something cm7 changes?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
Dude I don't know how to make one, ok. Not everyone knows everything. If you wanted to be helpful you would explain to me how to do it. No one else w/ this problem has posted one, yet you keep calling me out. Your what I said you were earlier and its plain for all to see, that's why I posted the above. What wasn't true? You posted some crap, got proven otherwise, and disappeared for 4 pages.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] TheRomMistress:
@amazinglarry311 & @xsteven77x

This is ridiculous, I should not have to babysit you guys. There was not reason for this to turn out how it did. Neither of you are in the right here and expect you both to take your licks and behave like adults. If you dont know how to do something, SEARCH, its that easy. If you don't have a full answer for a question, don't answer...its as simple as that.

You people think your doing everyone a favor by criticizing people when they are unsure of how to do something and then complain about how horrible XDA has gotten. What you seem to be oblivious to is the fact that your harrasment is one of the reasons XDA is not what it used to be. It is not only due to the "stupid questions" and people failing to "search".

I am sick and tired of the childish behavior throughout the G2/DZ fora. Please take a cue from your mother "If you can't say anything nice, do not say anything at all."

That is all.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
On a side note.....you can pull a logcat with ADB (search google for step by step instructions).

You can also download "aLogcat" from the market and have your logcat output to a file on your sdcard, then copy it over to your computer.

Most people tend to copy and paste what is in the logfile to somewhere like pastebin so that you can share the link with multiple people and all that.

Hope this helps.

Also, since I have seen it mentioned multiple times in the past few days, I wanted to comment on my battery life. I tend to upgrade my phone every few days to the latest nightly and have been flashing the streamline v5 kernel by Eugene since it came out. I have not noticed any significant decrease/increase in battery over the last few weeks. I always flash roms with a full battery, if not, I charge it right after flashing and wipe battery stats.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
Its in the wiki on how to pull one http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/wiki/Logcat
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] xsteven77x:
I apologize for adding to the madness. Ill figure out how to do the logcat when I get home and if I need help with posting it or whatever ill ask for help :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
Anyone with ideas regarding our power off issue? I dont kno if it could be rom related so i dont want to issue a bug. Would a logcat help with it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
I just tested it and it powered off for me but I am still running n125 due to battery drain on the latest nightlies.

My guess would be it is the power key commits in n133 for camera.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
Hmm maybe i should try 125 ish nightly. But i did superwipe and flash miui 1.7.8, is that based on the newer nightlies? Cuz i had the same issue. Will try some ideas after work. Thanks so far for the ideas guys
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tbalden:
I've tried this one, as I'm an FM radio listener. On today's nightly it works half-assed. Volume control (media) seems to be quite disproportional at first (loud as hell), than if i start a call or receive a call, the radio mutes the Media totally, and irrevocably. Needs a reboot.

Anyone with an app that can revert that without reboot?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kalipedia:
This is what I have (see attached). Also, seems percentages for me and cjward23 keep adding up to 98%...

[EDIT] - Hmm... I don't use WiFi Calling and have it Off, so that must be Android System usage, but showing up as WiFi Calling. Reboot does not fix this, and I haven't seen it in previous builds. (I'm on 11)

[EDIT2] - Fix Permissions and Reboot does not fix this. Still shows WiFi Calling. I guess we'll see if 12 fixes this.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] witm01:
Resetting ADW doesn't work. Strange. The bottom desktop dots are still messed up. I guess I'll have to try a full wipe next time I flash. That, or simply use the alternative indicators ;-)

Do you have the same problem when you remove com.android.kineto and the wifi calling APKs?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] wwwhershcom:

What do you use to turn off wifi calling titanium backup freeze?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] GunToYoMouth123:
There is the animation, you have to manually apply them.

Go to settings, CyanogenMod settings, display and check screen on animation and the screen off animation aswell.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kalipedia:
In response to all: I have tried freezing with Titanium and that doesn't make a difference - WiFi Calling still showing up and no Android System. I don't want to lose WiFi calling altogether as I use it sometimes. I did not wipe anything between 8 and 11 though, so I'll wipe cache and dalvik when updating tonight (or tomorrow morn) and we'll see if that makes a difference.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Vandam500:
Don't know what you guys did but I have Android System in my battery use. Haven't used Wifi calling so its not on the list, simple as that.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] kalipedia:
Alas, not so simple, as I haven't used WiFi calling in weeks (not since 6.1.1 days).
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] tvdang7:
been using it a day and i have noticed better battery life but more freezing and less responsiveness. anyone else? like it lags tilting the screen.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Akira300:
I keep getting a force close in the Gallery! I keep using fix permission and after the reboot it still will force close. Does anyone else have this problem and how can I fix it?

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ChronoReverse:
I'm on 136 and it powers down and stays off.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
that sounds completely logical, though i superwiped and installed miui 1.7.8 and i still had it. i also flashed virtuous g-lite and still had it. im almost running out of ideas but after work i will superwipe again, flash stock OTA radio, and flash an older nightly like 120ish. im almost thinking it may be radio related, i only noticed it since ive been on the latest bell radio, i also flashed .16 to test and still had the issue. but i cannot remember if i wiped efs afterward as it was 2am lol.

at any rate i will wipe again and flash some older stuff to see if i can rid it. does any suggest superwipe+ over just the regular superwipe?

and is there a manual way you can erase battery stats?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
may i ask which radio you are using?

and are you a G2 or DZ?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
ptesmoke, not sure if you are aware but there is a multi-quote feature so you don't have to make individual posts for each reply to each person....you can do it all in one post. Also the edit function can be useful when adding a quick few words to a reply instead of making a new post.

Also my phone powers off and stays off....radio version in my sig and I am on nightly 136.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmcqueen:
@ptesmoke: I'd flash a fresh recovery and hboot img as well just to make sure...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Fallen Spartan:
I resent that comment. In what way was I being a nazi? I was merely getting thread back on topic. Would you rather us mods let you post anything, no rules to abide by, the forums and threads would be unbearable?

If you think this way, then its you sir that needs to rethink why you're on XDA.

Feel free to PM me and discuss this further, but do not steer this thread off topic again or you'll receive an infraction

I'd hold the power button until the menu appears, choose Power Off and then OK. As far as I can tell, it's remaining off right now =)

thnx for the tip, 99.97% of the time i am on my xda app and cannot multiquote. i am on the laptop now and i cannot for the freakin life of me figure out how to get it to multiquote, i click on multiquote on all the replies i want to quote...then what?? lol i feel like such a b00n.

anyways, i hate to say it but i feel relieved more and more people are realizing they cant power off they're device lol. i honestly at first started thinking it was hardware related. i currently have my battery out right now for a while as someone suggested, then i am going to proceed with an sd card format and a full superwipe and reinstall of a old nightly. i will report back. recovery and hboot are my last options, i cant see how they would cause it though.

cheers, and in the future i plan to multi quote...once i figure it out. running on 3 hours sleep today so that may be it lol. cheers guys. also please post if you fixed your shutdown problem! :)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
Just tried on my phone. It reboots immediately after turning off when unplugged, but stays off if it is plugged in while I turn it off
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pmcqueen:
anyone else noticed that [looking back over the last few posts] the shutdown bug occurs only with DZ's?

any DZ users on G2 hboot? any DZ users willing to flash G2 hboot to see if that fixes?

im searching for the flashable G2 hboot now.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
No worries, you just click the multi quote button on each post u would like to quote and then scroll down to the bottom and hit post reply....then on the next screen you can type what you want underneath each quote and also eliminate parts of the quote you may not need (if its a really long quote you usually can trim it).

Anyways, hope you get this issue resolved. It does look like it is a lot of DZ users.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] gravis86:
After clicking all the multiquotes you want, click the "Post Reply" button at the bottom left of the page.

...and I'm on a T-Mobile G2 and my phone turns off normally.

really wouldn't be surprised if that fixes it. let us know!

(you can find hboot files in the wiki rooting method, fyi)
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
ok so i flashed G2 eng hboot, superwiped about 4 times, installing nightly 136 now since g2 users have reported no problems. i really dont think its rom related but have no idea how this arised. i will get up and running and try to shut down...but im not getting my hopes up. i think were gonna need some serious research into this one... it boggles me thats for sure.

EDIT: no dice, still keeps rebooting, ive tried everything guys i really dont know what else to try...
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] trsanning:
Where did u get the hboot from. Can u link it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] lawalty:
Did you fix your spring on your G2? The reason why I asked, a few minutes ago, I've tested just a simple power down my device which stayed off. So thinking about it, a few months ago I tore my G2 apart to fix/replace my spring, which was successful. I remember all the little (tiny) buttons that if possible might either have gotten wet (for whatever reason) without you realizing it, or they are getting pushed without you even trying.

In other words, if its not a software issue, the only common denominator is my G2 which should be the same as your G2, and if the software is the same (unless your download was corrupted) then the hardware is different. Like your power button is seemingly being pressed without you knowing or intending to.

Just a thought.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
lol ok so the multiquote thing isnt working for me, maybe because im using firefox?

anyways i will find the link again for the hboot or ill throw it in my dropbox.

as for a button being pressed that was my first idea last night but doing the key test in recovery everything looks fine to me, no buttons being pressed by them selves..

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
Hm... This isn't actually reboot issue. The phone simply will not stay off. I pulled the battery out of mine and as soon as I put it back in it powered on. Try it
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] mejorguille:
I just tried the powering my phone off. It stayed off. I'm running an older nightly (128?) and a slightly customized 3.0.2.4 recovery.

For those having the problem, could you please post a last_ksmg after it turns back on?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] shuka325:
Try using "quick shutdown" from the market. That worked for me while i was experiencing the issue. It shuts down faster, not sure what occurs during the system shutdown process that would trip the phone to reboot but there was something and quick shutdown seemed to not trip whatever that was.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
No such luck :(
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] noob1015:
Hey guys i started experiencing this issue last week when i was tweaking with my MeXDroid settings, and have been trying to figure it out. I was thinking we could all discuss this automatically booting issue in theb thread i made yesterday so we have it alli n one spot dedicated to it and not cluttering this thread.

My thread on this is here

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
I know without trying that it won't work. The phone turns itself on even after a battery pull
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] pudgedaddy:
This may have already been mentioned but, for people with the issue of the phone not keeping powered off, go into ROM manager and double check that you are using CWM recovery 3.0.2.4. I remember back when CWM went into the 3.0 version this issue existed until someone released a custom recovery to patch this and then koush merged that fix into the most recent CWM recovery to resolve the power off issues.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] G1ForFun:
Wasn't that only if the phone was plugged into the Charger?

This is an entirely different issue.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] C.Flat:
Yep. Now the phone stays off when plugged in but turns on on its own when unplugged... lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] david279:
I thought that was default behavior for most devices?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I was experiencing the same issue until I let my battery drain down to 0 and the phone powered off by itself. I charged my phone back up to 100% and tried again and now the phone powers off and stays off like it should.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
Something else for me to try after work i guess..

Now did u fully charge with it off? This is giving me a headache, just doesnt make sense. It obviuosly cant be a hardware issue if so many ppl now realize theyre experiencing this. Whith the battery pulled, when you insert it,what could possibly cause the device to turn on? Could the recovery be to blame? I reflashed it once with no help, i have also flashed my dz to the g2 hboot and no luck...

Im trying all i can to test for you guys but its seriously not making any sense lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kenzy-FIN:
Have you calibrated your batteries? I haven't had any problems with the latest nightly. Always calibrating the battery while changing roms... just go to recovery, wipe battery stats, power off, charge up to green light, turn the phone on -> unplug -> turn it off -> charge up to green light -> unplug -> turn it back on and use it until 0%.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
Yes, I left it off after it powered down and then connected it to the charger and went to sleep. When I woke up I powered it on and tested several times and now it powers off correctly.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
im trying this now, just ran out of power asnd plugged her into the wall. keep your fingers crossed, would prove to be an easy fix if this fixes it! but what on earth would cause it? its been haunting me all day lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I'm curious to know if flashing a new nightly will bring it back. I'll test it again after flashing tonight's...if there is one.
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] Kilroy672:
I'm not on here as much as I used too, not too sure how much this has been discussed or not. But I have noticed a few times over the past month that my phone completely shuts off, and the only way to turn back on is too take the battery out. It happened tonight after all day's use I went to pick it up and completely shut down. Pulled battery out and its fine now. And the other issue is, why is my phone always going into "airplane mode"? I wake up and it"s in airplane mode. Today was the 3 or 4th time it"s happened in the past few weeks. I leave it charged through my pc most of the time. Does this have anything to do with it?
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
let me know how it turns out, just to confirm when im charging it once the light is green its 100% right? i dont wanna unplug it before its done lol
[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] EdKeys:
I think it turns green at 90%. You may not have to go to 100. Mine did because it was charging for 6+ hours.

i have been using cm7 on my g2 for bout 48 hours....i really like it....its a clean rom and interface

[G2 and Desire Z Android Development] ptesmoke:
GREAT NEWS!

as posted by edkeys earlier, drain your battery to 0% and let the device turn itself off completly dead, plug into charger and let it charge ~4 hours or until your light turns green. unplug charger, phone will boot, load up your rom, power down, AND IT STAYS OFF!

brilliant, though the cause of this is still a mystery to me, doing this fixed it for me. hopefully it will work for everyone. please post your results!

HAPPY

edit: boys i posted the fix in the two other threads opened in Q&A and general, of course credited to edkeys, hit your thanks button as well bro. cheers

My battery drain is from recent nightlies while connected to Wi-Fi is now gone. Either the new radio (T-Mo US 0.26 to 0.30) or wiping efs has stopped my horrible battery drain when on Wi-Fi that started out of nowhere while using 0.26.

Does everybody suffer from the same issue, as I've suffered all the time with cyanogenmods? If you use mobile data, when the icon changes to 3G, the mobile data stops. After the icon changes to H again, data starts to flow again. I got rid off this feature with .30 radio and using the latest ril_automatcher, but with the stock cyanogenmod rils and even with .30 radio the problem excists. I was wondering if there were any workaround for this problem.
