Samsung Note 2 wont power on and stay on unless plugged in to charger

[AC Question]

Hi,

Im having this issue with my samsung note 2. I've had it for awhile now and dont want to give up on it just yet. It just stopped working on me a month ago and i've looked up other posts but nothing seems to help.

I notiThe day it started doing this I was skyping with my sister and i felt the back of the phone heating up abit so just as i was about to end the call the phone shut off and was stuck in a boot loop when i wanted to switch it on again. I decided to take the case off and let it cool down before trying to switch it on again. After a few hours I tried switching it on and it was just stuck in the boot loop. I took the battery out, reinserted it but still stuck on boot loop. Then i noticed if i plugged in the charger it would switch on and work fine. Once the battery got to 100% i unplugged it and noticed that it would stay on for 2 seconds, the network would drop out completely and right after the phone just goes blank, and then goes back into the boot loop.

Thinking that maybe it was the battery i purchased a new one off ebay and it worked for half the day before it started doing the same thing again. Now the only way i can use my phone is to leave it plugged in with the charger. I got no clue what else i can try so any ideas would be really helpful.

If not i might need to say goodbye to this phone.

Thanks

Have you tried replacing the battery, the phone is about 2 years old and if its the original battery with heavy regular use and charging it could be the issue.
