Battery problem fixed somehow

Shouldnt be news to many of you but i will report it anyway so :
when my gf got her diamond, battery power lasted only 1 day at normal usage. no gps, no hsdpa or whatsoever enabled, just some calls and text messages. then i tried pimping it by using diamond config and applying all energy tweaks and the new rom, still only 1.5 day at max. i was laughing at it coz my artemis/orbit lasts a week, but still i we were pissed of a bit.
now we had to change the whole device coz there was another issue with in and outgoing calls. i had to remove the cell and send the device in...few days later i got a new one, using the old batterycell. i didnt change anything, not even the windows settings and voilà : battery lives for 2-3 days !!!! thats quite astonishing for a diamond. so imho its proven what some already stated : few charges with 24h batterylife must be faulty, like mainboardissues or somethin.
so : if u really want to fix the prob, then u might have to send the phone in and let em fix it for you.
regards

Battery Issue/Diamond Exchanged
Just exchanged my diamond for another. Heat issue and battery drain without use after only 10 hours. I was wondering if the battery drain could be caused by changing the active profile from 0 to 1, but then again that made the data connection work. Will have to see if the same thing happens with the replacement diamond.

Let us know if the exchange helped. Like maybe its the device thats screwing up and not the battery itself.

My Battery from the Diamond is 4 days after recharge now down to 30% by light use.
The Problem are enrgy hungry applications in the background.
Install the powermanagment.cab. It brings a light better battery consumption.
You also can search a way to disable the loading of energy hungry applications (exemply: change or del registry entrys)

Urgent problem: kaiser turns off on wifi and phone calls

Hi there!
I recently changed my battery with an ORIGINAL new one because I had a problem... that is still here...
Every time I turn on wifi (even with 100% of battery) my phone turns off after 2 or 3 minutes (and it seems that's because of the battery.)
Sometimes it turns off even when I'm just calling (more often when the battery is less then 20-30%).
EDITED: 30-40 seconds before it turns off the screen and the physical keyboard backlight start to flicker.
EDITED: Now it turns off EVERY time I make or receive a call after 4-5 minutes!
Exemple: Today the battery life was around 50%. I tried to turn on wifi. After 2 minutes of wifi use it turned off. I tried to turn it on but there was the flashing red led and it turned off again every time (it was like uncharged ).
Then I tried to remove the battery for a few hours, I put it back in and the battery life was the same of before the "turning off" problem, around 50%. What does it mean??​
My hypothesis is that it gets excessively hot when I use wifi and even when I call... But I don't really know what that's about..
[my ROM is this: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=586463, the english version. I got the right RADIO, I checked yesterday]​
Thanks for any suggestion!!

[sorry 4 bad English]

Try this...
Check the battery contacts on the phone -- clean them with a little isopropyl alcohol, and gently pry them up a little so they make solid contact with the battery.

I'll try what you say, thanks a lot!
I just want to say (I forgot it in the first post) that the screen and even the physical keyboard backlight start to flicker 30-40 seconds before the kaiser turns off.

After prying and cleaning the battery contacts the problem isn't solved yet. I didn't use the isopropyl alcohol, I'll try it asap.
Anyway now the problem is even worse, the kaiser shuts down each call after 2 or 3 minutes! Of course if the phone is charging (via usb) NO PROBEL, even the flickering isn't there any more...
Any other possibility of fixing that? (I have no warrantee, I really hope I fix that by my self just with your help!)

btry prob
well.. find out if one of ur friends has kaiser..... exchange batteries... i.e u isert his btry into ur kaiser and ur btry in his kaiser and then try the wifi n calls from both fones..... this will precisely tel u whether it a fault in the fon or u didnt get The genuine btry.... hope this helps.... do leme knw.....

Thanks for replying but I'm using a brand new battery and the problem is still the same of the old battery, nothing changed...

perhaps the problem is really not the battery but rather the battery's charging.
the point of exchanging your battery with a friend's battery is that you will be able to test your device with a known properly charged battery.
alternatively, you can try to charge your existing battery with an external battery charging pack or by inserting your battery in a friend's phone and let it charge there.
i understand that you claim your battery is brand new, and this is leading you to conclude that it can NOT be the battery at fault...but strange things happen in this strange world!

Wow I didn't see this problem from that point of view!
The only person I know that has a Kaiser is 600km far from me...
Now I have to find a way to properly charge my battery (if it isn't already properly charged of course!)...

But just one question: if the Kaiser is not charging good the battery, why should it "think" that it's 100% charged??

welllll.... trust me..... i once had a sony ericsson k770i. the shopkeeper said that it has ORIGINAL btry.... n it wud turn off after 20 min talk. so my advise is try another btry from another shop.....

But I tried with 2 different batteries, my old one and a new one and the problem is the same. I also have to say that it's always worse then before. Now even if I turn on the camera after some minutes it turns off, ora yesterday even when I was writing a text message.
Indeed it's possible that the battery is always less charged because the Kaiser doesn't charge it. The Kaiser works good when connected with usb to may mac...

well buddy, ur last post clearly suggests a prob with btry.... say hw much had u used ur old btry before changing it

I used a battery for around one year, but it was already used (I've bought a used Kaiser, in very good conditions, on eBay).
The problem I have started with the old battery and now it keeps torturing me with the new one... Today I had my phone charged, but after 4-5 hours without using it I received a call and of course it turned off (after the flickering screen) I'm desperate...

o boy... its 200% confirmed btry prob. i m guessing, if u wud talk with charger or data cable plugged in, it wud work for hours ryt? my sincere advice is, go to a trustworthy shop n get a new battery. i m also using a new btry but it gives really gud tym on wifi, wap n calls....

Well I really think the battery I've just bought is a brand new original Battery, I checked all codes, voltage and other stuff... BTW I think I'll try to use another orignal battery (I'm sure that's original) of a friend of mine's Kaiser before I buy a new one. Here in Italy battery and gadgets prices are really high... Thanks 4 the help anyway!
PS: I really hope it's a battery problem, because if it's something else I don't really know what to do.... thanks again!

Update: I noticed that if I don't use Camera, Wifi or even make calls at all, my kaiser works for 2-3 days with no problem. I send lots of text messages, play Solitaire or view my photo album for example...
Why just more "intensive" tasks should make my phone turn off in 2-3 minute?
I don't really understand... I hope I'll find someone in my town that can fix it... BTW thank for any help

My Kaiser is randomly turning off

hii, i have htc tytn 2 and i boguht brand new OEM battery and put win.mo 6.5 but it has bug, it just hangs off, i tried many roms but i can't solve my problem if you need more details just ask

(a piece of paper between the batt an case helped temporarily) a new batt fixed the problem.gl

[Q] Battery dies rapidly after a full charge

HI
My wife has my old Touch Diamond2. She complains that after charging it overnight, the battery shows as FULL, but within a few hours it is dsicharged.
1. Does the battery need replacing
2. How can I check to confirm it is the battery and not the charger/phone.
regards
Max

Hope this helps you,
Senax

Thanks Senax for the nice link.. That is very nice thread to read and understand
thanks

I think the phone possibly has a hardware fault.
It strange, because if I take the simm out the phone keeps alomost full charge for the whole day!!
Not sure if its worth fixing.

May be you can check what all kind of networks are working/used when SIM is in? Also make the network selection Manual instead of AUTO and see the difference.
thanks.

I had the same problem...
recently I did two changes...
I Flashed the last radio
I Flashed the last Photon UX Room.
And then I fixed the battery problem...
why? I don´t know
lfallasm...

Thanks lfallasm and TD2IN
I dont want to flash the phone cos I have software (TomTOm) on the phone for which I no longer have the original CD to re-install. Also I have never flashed before.
I will try the network selection suggestion.
cheers

Network selection is already set to Manual.
I noticed something very STRANGE today.
I thought it maybe due to the signal in the new house we moved to, so I took the phone to work. Made one call and it went dead. Tried to start the phone, but battery to weak.
I took the sim out. started the phone without the sim and HEY PRESTO, battery is 75% full!!
Any ideas whats going on??

You should really flash it first, and if it fails you have a faulty phone. But flash it with HTC stock Rom, because you will lose waranty if you use anything else.

Its out of warranty. (My wife uses this phone now)
Would a FACTORY reset achieve the same as flashing with a HTC stock rom??
regards

FIXED.
The battery was faulty.
Apparently is had developed a slight "buldge" in the middle. Probably due to over heating.
Bought a new battery and all seems well.
£8 battery saved me buying a wildfire S for the wife.

Xperia t LT30P reboot problem

Hello guys,
My xperia t is facing constant reboot problem. This problem occurs when phone is not charging and when it:
-has both sim and sd card on it. (MAYBE battery problem)
-is on safe mode. (no software issues)
Phone works when:
-it is charging with both sim and sd card on it. ( sim card or tray can't be the issue because it recognizes sim and it works when phone is plugged in hence, battery may be dead)
-it is not charging but doesn't have sim on it. ( this makes me think battery is not the problem)
Update: I have realized that the problem is because of mobile data usage. No reboot when not using mobile data, but as soon as it is turned on and is used, phone reboots.
Anyone experienced this problem and can give me solution please? Phone is not rooted and has stock JB rom.
Many thanks.

Solution - new battery
Hi Shiniix3,
this issue is annoying and very frustrating at the same time because it just begin to appear from nowhere and keeps progressing with every reboot.
During the latest stage of my "try&fail" endless tests I decided to replace the battery and voila! issue resolved. So go and check your local vendor or e-shop, it took me 30 min to replace it myself at home, mainly because I lack special tools for opening and was cautious due to circuits leading above the battery. Also battery is glued to the framework so it had to be done softly but with some amount of pressure when pulling battery out.
Battery life has never been a strength of this phone. Anyway, got a "brand new" phone with fresh energy and CM12.1 working like a charm

If you have electronic skills (or a friend that could do it for you) I resolved with this tutorial: Xperia T Battery Fix

Found this one too, requires some skill and tools. Pretty simple but also switching off battery protection.
