Dopod 818 pro powers off

[ashwark]

Everday my phone goes off by iteself once. I don't know what is the problem. At first I thought it might be firmware related but I've switched 5-6 different firmwares and right now im on Cloudyfa's latest firmware and it still gives me this problem. Does anyone else face this problem?

Does anyone else face this problem?Does it power off fully (as in shut down, and need to be restarted), or just turn off the screen?

I've the same problem on mine but me, for shure it's a battery problem. When it's turn off I must wait about 3 minutes to take it on or just plug it on AC charger. When I plug it, the LED blink once red and orange like a charge directly after one or two seconds and I can start/unplug my phone how is generaly at 45~65 % charged.
Not everyday cause it's only a test phone (I use Artemis) but every long test (stability in full chargeor overclocked) too much ressources are needed from my (hold) battery and it lock the alimentation. The Red Light is for hardware problem, that sure ;)
So at the moment of the power off plug it intoo wall charger and say to me what is the reaction.


Sorry for bad English ;)

l3v5y, it powers off. I have to restart or sometimes even soft reset to get it up again.. Perhaps its the battery too?

i had the issue where my dopod rebooted by itself even though the power meter was still at around 40-50%. As time goes on, it got worst. So I replaced my 1 1/2 year battery to a new one. Problem solved. So I agree wilth l3v5y.

FYI

Were you running lots of programs? Is the battery (relatively) new?
