I am in agreement with this being caused by a dying battery but is there a reason that it's only happening when I close the cover? I can put it to sleep and turn screen off via power button and it hasn't come up with the battery empty symbol upon turning it back on.

Update 6:28pm 2/1
It has now also given me the dead battery icon when using the power button. It's also now at 57% when it was at 39% when I checked before putting it to sleep. I'm going to just turn it off and get a new battery asap.
