I'm using a Redmi 13C and a M25 earbud, 4 days ago my mom shut it down and hid it away. Find my device from Google doesn't work, I don't enable power on schedule yet why does it still connect to my ear buds Bluetooth?

My phone (Xiaomi Redmi Note 10, 2 years usage, the warranty just passed) suddenly shut down at 50% battery at normal usage when I clicked an app to open it and it will not boot up. I want to fix it myself due to privacy reasons, as I don't trust payed services and have experience in opening phones, but only to replace the screens. I tried to turn it on on safe mode - unsuccessfully. I tried to charge it but it didn't even pop the animation of charging. Nonetheless I left it for couple hours to charge and tried again - still not booting up. The USB connector is clean, dust-free and not loose. I tried different chargers. It is not detected by the computer when plugged in (checked in the Device Manager, Windows). I also called the phone from another phone to check if it's the screen's issue - I got "user out of service" message. I tried to troubleshoot the connector and it was a surprise to me: I own a MakerHawk UM34C USB 3.0 tester and tried it on my working phone - readings were reasonable, approx. 13W of charging power. I tried it on bunch of other devices, with correct readings. I also tested a device with physical on/off switch and the device showed voltage of 5V when turned off (charger voltage) and voltage + amperage when turned on (with propper readings). **So when I plugged it in the phone and if the connector were bad then I should have the same reading as in the device with off switch. But what I got was device (tester) restarting constantly without even showing me the data, as if the connection was ok but the phone "intentionally" disconnected it repeatedly.** This means that the phone recognises the charger and disconnects it immediately. What does it imply? Is it the software issue? I tried to open it like on the vid, using same tools but the glue seems to be too strong and it won't open so I can't check the battery itself without damaging the phone: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PhC37fp4o7Y **How should I troubleshoot the issue?** These threads provided no help: https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/171472/galaxy-s4-not-booting-up https://android.stackexchange.com/questions/247451/poco-m3-pro-5g-not-booting-up-after-unexpected-shutdown-it-does-not-charge-as-w

My Allwinner Android KitKat 4.4 tablet has been displaying this when powered on but remains on this display. How can I get the tablet to pass this display? What could be wrong, and how to resolve it?

If a user shuts of his phone, does the phone inform the cell tower that this was a manual shut off or the shut off was caused by other reasons like low battery?

I have an Android phone (Moto Z) and for some reason the buttons stopped responding. This wasn't an actual issue until one night I let the battery die... the phone accepts the charger AND charges but since the buttons don't work I can't turn it on. When I plug the phone into my computer, and I can see it as a USB device (lsblk). What now? Is there a way to issue a command to the device from my computer (Arch Linux) telling it to turn on?

By battery insertion I mean current flowing on the battery pins, **not** the micro USB port. **Description** The phone in question is a Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4, the **bootloader** is **unlocked**, and I have **root access**. Its intended purpose is as a kiosk device that will be sealed inside an external hard plastic enclosure. This means that the power button is unavailable for booting the phone. The phone is powered directly from the wall by means of a custom-made battery eliminator PCB, and I need the micro USB port for host mode UART communication, which means it will never be charged/powered via the micro USB port. **What has been attempted so far** As mentioned, the device is rooted, so I've tried modifying the BOOT partition image and flashing an updated one. The modifications I've been looking at pertains to the program /init in the root directory. and its associated /init.rc /init.samsungexynos7570.rc /... files. For example, I was able to make the phone boot upon receiving charge via the USB port by overwriting the contents of the file /system/bin/lpm with the script #!/system/bin/sh echo b > /proc/sysrq-trigger because /system/bin/lpm is referenced in a service specified in the charging section of /init.rc. I was also able to make it boot via USB port charging by removing the existing "on charge" triggers in the init.*.rc files, and simply adding on property:ro.bootmode=charger: trigger late-init For more details about what I did, see this link . But this is **not a solution for me** because I want to make it boot simply by powering the battery pins, not the micro USB port (which is preoccupied with being in host mode, so it definitely can't be charged). **Further thoughts** However, since modifying the /init.rc file changed its behaviour even while "off" (i.e. it now boots upon micro USB charging as opposed to not), this seems to tell me that the phone is never really completely off when "off", and that the /init program is constantly running as long as there is enough charge on the battery pins (please derail this thought train asap if this is completely wrong). Which would mean the kernel and the /init program should start automatically when there's sufficient charge on the battery pins. So my thinking was to simply add something along the lines of trigger late-init or start (where *my_service* for example could be the lpm script I mentioned above) in an early init trigger stage, so that it would boot simply by virtue of the /init program running. But so far I've had no luck. Does anyone know whether something like this would possible? Thanks for your time.

I bought a second-hand Samsung Galaxy J3 (J330FN) last week. It arrived today, missing a power button (which I was not informed of beforehand) and not factory reset. The seller is trying to be helpful but has forgotten the PIN... naturally. The phone does not offer power options from the notification shade, so I seem to have literally no way to power it off, or better still get it into fastboot mode in order to initiate a factory reset. I have tried connecting it to my PC with the Samsung USB drivers installed but ADB cannot see the device in order to send commands to it, understandably since I cannot unlock it to enable developer options and USB debugging! Catch 22. Anybody have a lifeline here (short of me asking for a refund)?

I want to charge the phone while it's powered OFF. But it automatically turns itself ON during charging. It may be 87% or 90% or 100%. I don't know the exact reason. Model = LG-K430n. I don't like cell phone radiation and I rarely use the phone at all. I just want it to be OFF most of the time. This is driving me nuts.

It is a Google Pixel 7 and is not even a year old. It has never been in water but it's dropped at least 10 times a day. It always had a case and screen protector. I was in the middle of sending a text and the screen went black and it won't turn back on. I tried to hard reset it and it still does nothing. I've tried with and without it being on the charger The battery was at 80% when it shut off.

Will the alarm still go off if I turn off the phone before? Example: when I have low battery, I have to go to sleep and wake up at X o'clock, and there is no charger around. *Should I turn off the phone?* Note: If it makes any difference my phone is Galaxy S running froyo

A relative of mine recently lost his phone and someone turned it off immediately and now the phone is missing. Find My Device was unable to locate the phone as it had been turned off. I have a few other devices that are running Android 12 or less, is there a way to force the user to enter a password to turn it off? I did a search and it seems there is such a feature in newer Android devices by some manufacturers. One suggested way was to set up a macro on the longpress of the power button hence preventing it from shutting down. Is there a way I can achieve this even if it means rooting my phone or using third-party apps?

Is it possible to automatically power on the device once the charger is connected given that the device is initially turned off?

My Lenovo phone doesn't turn on. When I connect it to the PC, it vibrates. The PC sees it as a MediaTek PreLoader USB VCOM Port. On flashing, the SP Flash Tool gave me a Scatter storage type error. How to fix it? Flash the preloader? Before flashing, I formatted it, and the phone started flashing, but didn't turn on.

Can an Android be powered on remotely? My intent is to find my phone if it's turned off.

I was watching videos and suddenly my Cloud Mobile Stratus phone went black. It was 68 percent when it died. It's a non-removable battery. Nothing is broken and everything was working properly until now. I tried turning it back on but it wouldn't restart. I tried the power button with the volume up with no luck four times. I'm not sure what to do and can't find help for this specific phone. Please help.

I'm afraid that one person installed spyware on my phone. When I wanted to be sure that I wasn't being recorded I powered my phone off and I noticed that my phone is powered on. I noticed it about six times. It's hard to say how long after powering it off the phone powers on by itself. I would say that it didn't happen right away. I have Mi 10t Lite. Android version 12 SKQ1.211006.001, MUI version MIUI Global 13.0.8 Stable 13.0.8.0(SJSEUXM). I found in google following possible reasons: 1. Battery issue 2. Scheduled power on 3. System update 4. Broken power button Power button works properly in my opinion, I have not notices any issues. Scheduled power on is turned off in my phone. After three first unwanted powering on I bought new phone. I used new phone and observed my old phone. Old phone powered on himself three more times and it hasn't turned on by itself for over a week. This may rule out a battery problem because it is unlikely that the battery repaired itself and stopped turning on the phone. It can suggest that spy recognized that he can not spy on me because I use new phone (I left my old phone e.g. in the car). Find device feature is turned off. Unfortunately I uninstalled several apps and it is possible that some uninstalled application caused a problem but I did not uninstall anything suspicious and any application should not have permission to power on phone. I wrote down all application that have permissions camera, call logs, contacts, location, microphone, sms, phone. I compared it with new phone and I googled application that I did not know I have not found anything suspicious. I used adb logcat to copy logs. I powered phone off and when I noticed that phone is on I copied logs. Is it possible to find cause of powering on in logs? File has 102159 lines so I can not place it here. Additionally logs contain some fscrypt keys. I do not have any antivirus software. As I know good antivirus are paid and I can not install it from google paly now because I am afraid to add credit card because I am afraid of spyware. I executed "Play protect" and result is ok. I do not want to do factory reset because I am very curious if there is some spyware on my phone. If I do factory reset then probably I will never know that.

I just discovered that if I set the alarm clock and then power off the phone (by holding the power button and then selecting "Power Off") the alarm will still go off when the time comes. Is this expected behavior? It makes me feel like "power off" doesn't actually power off the phone. I have a Huawei Y530-U051 running android 4.3.

I want my phone to power off after being idle for some time (say, 15 minutes). This is a common feature in computers, but I couldn't find it on my Android settings, nor an app to help me out. I don't want a scheduled shutdown, but a shutdown after inactivity. Is that possible?

I appear to have bricked my S10+ by incorrectly flashing what I thought was stock firmware using heimdall and am now stuck in a boot-loop (that may be the wrong term). The screen shows:

only official released binaries are allowed to be flashed (SYSTEM)

...

An error has occurred while updating the device software
...

If I hold volume-down + power long enough the screen goes black but then the phone immediately appears to reboot right back into the same screen. I am hoping that I may be able to boot into download mode (volume-down + bixby + power ?) or recovery (volume-up + bixby + power ?) and try to salvage the situation. But step one on all the guides I've found is to turn the power off, and I can't work out how to do that.

After searching I know that some phones if you set up an alarm then you switch the phone off, it will open up exactly at the time you set it up to ring this is in case if the alarm is active before you switch off the phone. But what happened with me is I set up an alarm and then I just cancelled it "but without deleting it or changing the date or the time" and I turned off my phone. But still it opened up exactly at the time I set up the alarm as if the alarm still active. I just want to understand why this happened? Is this a common thing in Android or it indicates to something else? Also some of the alarms I set don't ring exactly at the time I set them to but after a couple of minutes or so. I also I don't understand why it's happening?
