Kaiser Powering off when in motion

[polish_express]

Would it be an issue with the battery? or the board? rom?

It seems as if the battery looses connection with the phone or something along those lines, it works fine when I don't move it, but if i pick it up and go mobile, it turns off on random movements.

Is this a common problem? I have searched and didn't find any help.

TIA

No this isn't common, can you plug it in and move it around? Lets see what that does. I would think the phone is hozed.

Hozed? As in water damage? I don't remember it getting wet....
At first, when it started acting up, it didn't even want to charge or turn on. I would plug it in, turn it on and it would reset after the "HTC" screen, continuously.

Now I can plug it in no problem, and it charges. Sometimes, it'll tell me that the battery is out of juice after a few hours or charging, but its rare.

I'm also having trouble sync-ing

I sent the phone in to get it checked out and will post what the outcome is.

I really hope its the end of the batteries life, and not the phone :(

Hozed is an old techie term saying it's broken.

Stick a small bit of card between battery and back case see if that helps ;)
As for the rest of your problems a hard-reset and if it's not just that the battery isn't making full contact a new battery...

This issue was mentioned here before.....and stylez suggested to you, I inserted a piece of folded paper between the battery and the phone (opposite to the battery terminals). Never had that problem again.....this was at least 10 months ago....

I had same problem and solved it by just adjusting the battery contacts. Pull them out a little.

Try rubbing the cold contacts of the battery and the phone with a pencil rubber.
It removes any oxydization, and slight corrosion off the contacts, also use the idea of the card to see if that helps!

Not sure why this has posted twice.

Check that the SIM card door is fully closed and properly locked

I've just used your tip to fix my T-Mobile G1. It was always powering off when it was in my pocket or when I flipped the screen out. T-Mobile said it was a software problem and I should return it - and survive with a crummy 2G loan phone for a couple of weeks while it was "with the engineers". Fucking idiots. :rolleyes: So thanks a million! :D:D:D
