Hey guys, back with another issue with my father's phone. So this has just recently been happening. His phone will shut off out of no where only when he used the internet or uses an app like facebook or the camera. He can only browse the internet for a couple minutes and it shuts off. When he tries to turn it back on, it says to connect it back to the charger. But the battery was like at 80%.

My phone was working perfectly fine (performance-wise) before I decided to do a factory reset. My reasoning for this was because I was running low on phone memory and wanted to clear any erronous garbage that had accumulated on my phone over time.
Well, here is the problem! Ever since the reset (I've don'e multiple), the phone software drains my battery within 5 minutes of being on.
Recently, I dropped my Galaxy Nexus (which is running stock with the latest GB update) from the couch.
The phone seemed fine except everything related to the battery has gone nuts.
I've rebooted, drained and fully charged the phone, etc, etc.
I have not reset to factory however.
Here's what I'm seeing:
1. When I connect the charger to it, it sometimes wont charge.
After updating my LG Thrive to 4.04 from 2.35 I have seen horrible battery life.
Although I had already done a factory reset I decided to try removing the battery to see if that would help.
I've done alot of deleting apps etc, to figure out why my phone is just sucking the hell out of my battery, both the factory battery and a Hyperion..
You think if i did a factory reset is might be better perhaps?
After reading that others have the same issues as I do with ICS (bad battery life, wifi connection problems, and the phone being sluggish) and a factory reset is the "fix" for this, I went ahead and did a factory reset. Surprisingly, the phone had automatically backed up everything..
Has anyone with battery plummet problems been successful in getting AT&T to allow exchange for another phone model after 14 day period?
I've had this phone for about 2 months and tried all sorts of different things to deal with the plummet issue. I've called customer service, tech support, warranty/exchange. New battery X 2, factory reset X 2, replacement GS3.
Last night at midnigh my phone shut off by itself and rebooted, when it came back on, the Samsung Galaxy S2 logo displayed then it went to the ATT Rethink Possible splash screen and just stayed there and refreshed itself every 30 seconds. I have an unrooted phone with no updates installed.
