Switching off (not rebooting) by slight jerks, and conking off at 40%

Hi my Z10 is switching off when I allow the phone to drop from a height of about 2-3 inches on a table.
Device Details:
Z-10 STL-1
Software Release : 10.1.0.4181
OS Version:10.1.0.4633
Build ID : 556195
Cryptographic Kernel Version : 5.6.2.4391
Pin :{REMOVED}
Also in addition to this it switches off with around 40% battery.
I have tried the following:
1. Battery pulls (extensively with battery staying out for the whole night)]
2. Reloading OSes - wiped it clean and reloaded the OS.
3. Putting a business card in the back between the battery door and battery.
(It somehow doesn't switch off with jerks when on charging though)
My major problem though is not the jerks - it's the device switching off at 40% + battery.
and then It won't restart till I plug it in.

Seemingly Fixed as of now :
1. Took out the battery and swapped another Z10's battery
2. Put a Business card between the Battery door and the battery
3. Loaded the OS 10.2
Working beautifully now for the last 11 hours.
I believe it is some issue with the new Release of the OS - should be fixed in the next release.

  • HELP: My MacBook was on sleep mood then would not reboot, eventually it did and i has the sleep mood light flashing 3 times and like a siren noise going off .

    Help please
    I used my MacBook yesterday and left it on sleep mode as usual. The battery had drained during the night. So I plugged in the charger and it started up as normal. Then a notice came up saying shut down using the power button as an unexpected error had occurred. I done as it asked then I could not reboot or turn on at all. It felt like a power surge was going through the laptop. I eventually got it turned on and sent the report off to apple. The screen kept flickering so I turned it back off and took the battery out and tried to turn on again. This then proceeded to make the sleep light blink 3 times and then there was a siren sounding noise and a blank screen, I turn it off and now I have managed to reboot and all seem to be working fine. I am really worried as I love my MacBook and cant afford to replace it.
    Thank you for your help in advance

    You felt electricity zapping you when you touched it?
    Backup everything!!!
    Put in your Install DVD & boot while holding C
    Go to Utilities > Disk Utility > Repair Disk & Repair Permissions
    Also put in your extra Applications Install DVD
    Hold D while booting & run the Apple Hardware Test.
    If no error's, run the Extended Hardware Test.

    Check on the setting, as far s i know it was there by going on tools>options> privacy then check it out. If there was no changes, what i can suggest is try to update your firefox.

  • Computer Does not turn off after i when to start and turn off

    Ok here is my Problem when i want to shut down my computer. the screen stay in window is shutting down and freezed. the only way i can shut it down is by pressing reset and then press the power button to have my computer shut down. does anyone know what is this ? and how can i fix it ?

    well it been like that when i first build the computer i just want to see if something is wrong and i can fix it without format the computer or anyting i have let it sit there for over few hours and it still won't shut down. so not sure what is wrong with it .

  • HT2529 This morning Voice Over started running on my computer, but when I go to SYSTEM PREFERENCES/INTERNATIONAL ACCESS the Voice Over option is off, so I turned it on and then off, but it's still on.  What else can I do to make it stop?

    This morning Voice Over started running on my computer when I turned it on.  I did not turn Voice Over.  Could I have hit a combination of keys on the keyboard that accidentally turned it on?  When I went to System Preferences and chose Internation Access it showed that Voice Over was not even on.  I turned it on and turned it off to reset it, and it is still running.  How is this possible, and how to I get rid of it?
    Trumpeter

    I went to System Preferences, Universal Access, and then VoiceOver for the fiftieth time after you said to check VoiceOver Utility to see if I saw anything odd.  On The VoiceOver screen it was actually saying that VoiceOver was on.  All day the VoiceOver option was off, and the computer talked to me everytime I logged in.  I tried turning it on and off and it still talked to me.  Now the VoiceOver option was on, so I turned it off again. Weird! I had tried several combinations of keys again and again as the tech instructed me to do, but we couldn't turn it off, but I have to admit that after my phone went dead I tried everything I could imagine; so maybe in trying to turn the talking off I turned the VoiceOver Option on. Anyway, somewhere along the way it quite talking to me.
    Let me ask you a couple of questions.  When I clicked on VoiceOver Utility, after turning VoiceOver off, the screen message says: Speak the following greeting after login:  Welcome to Mac OSX.  VoiceOver is running. I was assuming that it meant VoiceOver was running.  That is what it is saying right now.   It's not talking to me anymore, but the screen says this whether the VoiceOver icon is on or off.  What is this all about.  Is it telling me that Voice Over is still running when I see this, or what?  After all, even when the OFF icon was chosen the computer still spoke to me when I hit each key upon logging in.  After you read the rest of this you will understand why I am asking if it is still running even though it's not talking to me.
    There is a box that appears and says "Portable Preferences for (Jane Doe) have been detected on (JaneDoe).  Would you like to use them?    Always Use   /  No  /   Yes      What does that mean?
    Last but not least. I was looking around and was clicking on Application, Documents, etc.  When I clicked on Documents, only four things came up even though there are tons of documents on my computer.  All four of them have to do with VoiceOver, and they were labeled as documents.  One of the documents had this in it:
    SCRConfiguration Cursor Tracking KBToVO
    SCRConfiguration Cursor Tracking VOToTXT
    SCRConfiguration Cursor Tracking VOToKB
    I'm not a computer genius, so maybe I just don't know what I'm looking at.  Is it normal for something like this to be found under documents?  All of these were dated today, and the problems started today. I haven't gone to bed yet, so even though it's after midnight it's still the same day to me.  Anyway, none of the documents were dated before this problem started.  On top of that, I have tons of documents on my computer, but when I clicked on Documents, those four are the only ones that showed up.  After trying to decipher the programming language on them, I went to click on Applications and hit Documents again, and all the documents came up.  I scanned the list and didn't see them, but there are so many documents on here that I haven't had time to slowly go over them to see if I missed those four documents somehow. Since then I haven't been able to get just those four to appear by themselves again.
    Now, is it possible that I still have a hacker and he knows through a key logger everything I am communicating to you and the Apple Store,  Maybe he did made a mistake and accidentally caused this problem, and through logging every key I have typed he has learned about his mistake and fixed it.  He could still be key logging me now without me knowing it; or maybe he removed the keylogger, because he know I'm taking it in to the Apple Store and can tell them now exactly what to look for.
    It is either a hacker, or I have a very vivid imagination.  What do you think?

    If your iPad is not switching on then try a reset : press and hold both the home and sleep buttons for about 10 seconds when the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot).

    Ipod touch 4th gen needed a new screen and sleep/wake switch.  So, I replace them.  I was able to get to settings and do "erase all content and settings".  I am not able to totally shut this device off as it keeps restarting after a few seconds.  I have used itunes to restore and also recover.  Device will actually shut off and stay shut off if I leave it connected to the computer.  The moment I unplug (3 seconds) the apple logo appears, it boots, unlock screen appears, I can unlock and operate normally, unplugged or not.  Just cant get it to completely shut down unplugged.  Any thoughts?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer                            
      - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem. Maybe you installed a bad component or damaged something during the repair/replacement.
    Apple will not help since you worked on the iPod yourself.

  • Yesterday while downloading an app on my 3GS, my iPhone froze, and I switched it off to reboot. Following that, every few minutes, the screen will flicker and the phone will restart. What's wrong? And how should I fix it?

    I recieved my iPhone 3GS around Christmas. It has been working great, until yesterday. I was downloading an app and suddenly my messaging froze. I couldn't view incoming messages, and every chat I clicked on displayed the same frozen dialogue with only the contact names different. (The app was supposedly reliable, I read over the reviews.) I rebooted my phone in hopes of fixing this, and everything seemed fine for a couple of minutes. Then the screen slightly flickered, and my phone restarted itself. Now, after turning on again, it continues to flicker and crash every few minutes, whether I'm using it or not. Can anyone tell me what could be wrong and how I can fix it?

    Restore the Firmware with iTunes.
    If still problem and you have Warranty or AppleCare Coverage take to Apple for resolution.
    If no coverage, the next step would be battery replacement.

    Hi HARISH INDIA,
    That is not good but lets see if we can get it back to life. If you can, see if you can put your iPhone into recovery mode and then use iTunes to restore it. If you can get it to restore, it will erase everything off your iPhone. If you have a back up in iTunes or iCloud then you can put that on after the restore is complete. Take a look at the article below for more information.
