[Q] Phone just dies! (battery draind?) - XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi!
I have a Xperia X1 that suddenly dies! (from anny level of battery) Some times I can use the phone for hours, sometimes minutes before it turnes off without anny warning.
When i restart it, the battery seams to be almost empty. So it goes from fully loaded to empty in seconds in worst case.
But it in some way i don't belive the battery has been drained, because sometimes when I charge it for a short period of time it´s back on 100%.
Anyone recognise the problem and have any solution?
Battery broken? New battery?

change your battery, 100% battery problem.

probably battery, yeah. but a slight chance that it's rom-related as well... (try another one or hardreset if you're on stockrom)
you can try this as well, it's supposed to recalibrate the batt-sensor:
- let it go empty
- turn the phone on again (should turn off within a few seconds)
- turn it on again, let it go off
- remove the battery
- press and hold the power-button for 30 secs (to drain the charge which keeps your clock running)
- put battery back in
- let it charge without turning the phone on! (wall-charger)
when it's fully charged - try...
don't do this too often, lithium-batteries don't like being discharged completely many times... but you're probably in for a new battery (or phone, that is )
edit:
have you tried the new stock-spl 0.78?
there are claims it fixes some battery-issues. i didn't notice any difference from 0.72, but some people are adamant about it... ^^

Battery goes from 90% to 0%

Anyone have the problem that the battery status is incorrect? Sometimes within the hour of fully charing my device the screen starts to flicker and then device turns it self off.
When I restart and charge it the battery bar shows almost emtpy and goes to 100% after ten minutes in only one step.
I am using Sakajati's latest ROM. Only modification I did was replace IE with the previous version.
1. Flash a stock ROM see if still problem.
2. Try a different battery see if still problem.
Both will test hardware or ROM related.
Your battery is most likely dead.
yeah I agree your battery is most likely dead. I had the same problem with my first tilt. It died out cos I accidentally overcharged it a few times.

You can't, the phone would just stop charging it.

i know the phone is smarter than that, but i figured he used an off brand charger or something like that, just wanted to make sure.
If you use too hot of a charger it can hurt the battery a little bit....
I know that a common cause of this problem beyond the battery is that the phone's calibration to read the battery level gets thrown off. To reset the calibration, turn the phone off, do a battery pull, wait a good 30 seconds, put it back in, then without turning the device back on, put it on the charger and let it chill for a couple hours. When all is said and done, you should have a fully charged battery and a recalibrated Kaiser.
I would not be to quick to blame the battery here but yes it could be that What SPL do you have? If the device acts dodgy whit screen freeze it could be that. I would try some other whit recomended rom and give it a spin before changing battery (ofc. short version is to borrow a fresh one to eliminate).

[Q] X8 Battery Charging Problem

Today morning, I turn on my phone and I saw the battery is 80%, I put it in my bag. After 1h, I take my phone out and I found that my phone was very very HOT, and the battery went down to 10%! (normally my phone just drop 1-2% in idle mode)
After that, I pull out the battery and put it in agn. (I guess the phone turned on automatically, but I dint noticed bout it) After few hour, I tried to turn on my phone, and the LED showing red colour and keep blinking..I couldnt turn on my phone.
Now, I cannot recharge it when the phone is off, the LED din't blinking anymore.
I have tried to recharge my phone with charger, but it failed..I have tried to connect it to the pc too ..but it failed as well..
Anyway to fix this problem? Thanks.
Sorry for my bad english..
try get new battery maybe
I had a very similiar problem. My phone had been discharging battery in 3 hours from 100% to 1%. Once, the battery discharged completely and I wasn't able to recharge it, so I decided to buy a second battery. In my case it didn't help - the other battery was discharging exactly like the original one.
As I had a 2-year warranty, I returned my phone to the shop and guess what?
They replaced a mainboard in my phone (for free of course). Now everything is ok.

You try connect your phone to charger and charge more. Sometimes if your battery is recharged may not be detected for 5-30 minutes

i have this bug, too !!!
Please help
This battery bug is a known problem for quite some time, it can have different behaviours from user to user but basically, when you restart your phone you lose around 10% of battery, but the battery power is still there, for example you can charge it to 100%, restart it a couple of time and feel the real power of 50% battery for 1 day
Me and anders tried to repair this but with not too much success, i could say the simptoms were aleviated but that's pretty much it, the battery driver seems to me to have been developed in an internship, has lot's of TODO and FIXME in the sources.
Hope this helps
so, i can't fix this? i go to buy a new battery...

[Q] Battery problems

Hello, lately I've been having some battery drainage issues with my Huawei Ascend P7.
For some reason it drains really quickly (sometimes even when the screen is turned off). Sometimes my battery jumps from 40%+ to 15% and when I plug in the charger, it jumps back to 30%+ really fast.
My phone is rooted, I'm using Doze and Greenify to save some of the battery when the screen is turned off and I also have "Screen power saving" option turned on.
I have taken some screenshots of the battery usage and one of my phone's specifications.
Does someone know what might be wrong with my phone or could there be something wrong with the battery all of a sudden?
Did you try to reinstall Android new?
Or at first a factory reset?

I flashed B852 package's recovery and boot. Then rebooted to recovery mode, wiped data and cache, then rebooted to install mode and installed B852 ROM (dload/UPDATE.APP).
The phone turns on fine, but the battery percentage just drops so quickly and once it even shut off when it was at 60%. When I tried to boot it back up it said it was outta battery.
And one time when my phone turned off and wouldn't turn back on, I plugged in the charger and it told me the phone still had 32% battery. I turned on the phone, unplugged the charger and it shut off in a minute or two. When I plugged the charger back in, it still told me I had 30%+ battery left.
I think the problems began when I flashed https://forum.xda-developers.com/as.../kernel-huawei-ascend-p6s-p7-k-tuned-t3355223 kernel. But I installed a clean B852 ROM and the problem still persists.
Thats really strange, but this kernel is not the problem.
I also have a P7-L10 B852 and using this kernel without any problem...
But right after installing this kernel I also had some strange problems...
Sometime my phone rebooted it self or if it was locked and I pressed the power button to wake it up, it just stayed black and it got really hot...
I don't know what py phone did at this moment because if you are looking at the battery info in settings, it says my phone just was turned off and even lost battery but it wasn't really off...
My solution was a clean install (erasing and flashing every single image and after that 3-button-method)
After that boot up your phone
Now shut it downs install the kernel again
Boot up
Shut downs
(Maybe flash original boot.img
Boot up
Shut down)
Install kernel again
Boot up
I'm using this kernel for more then a half year now and I don't face any problems anymore...
I think the battery itself was the problem. I removed the back cover, removed the battery and cleaned the connector pins with alcohol. When I turned the phone back on about 30 minutes later, under "Power saving" smart power plan option shows me the phone will last for 11 h 30 min at 83% (WiFi turned on), when it used to be like 2-4 hours at 90%. I'll keep monitoring for a while to see if the problem is truly gone.
Thanks for your help.
//edit1: Never mind, I tried playing with the CPU voltages and it froze, so I turned it off. Turned it back on and the problem was back. It jumped down from 80% to 14% and in a minute or two, the battery died. When I booted it into recovery, TWRP says I still have 34% left. So I rebooted into system, it showed me I did have 34% left, but it turned off. Going to try your advice now.
//edit2: Got it to work properly again. Hopefully I won't touch something that will mess it up again.
Maybe your battery itself is the problem but to proof that you will need a second P7 to change batteries of them...
But such extrem battery-problems I have never faced...
You could send it to Huawei support, maybe they will say you if your battery is damaged...
So you could buy a new one and change it
Have you tried calibrating your battery?
I don't think it's a calibration problem
But if you want you could try it...
Charge your phone to 100%
Now delete the batterystats.bin at /data/system
Reboot your phone
Use your phone normally and let it discharge right before it's shutting down it self (3% I think)
Now charge it again to 100%
While charging your phone you should not touch it or unplug the charger
Last night I went to sleep with the battery being at 90%+, woke up to my phone being dead (the alarm didn't go off).
Tried turning it on, it showed me I had 50%+ battery, but it turned off shortly after. I plugged the charger in, and it said I have 58%.
And yes, I have tried calibrating my battery. But I can try doing it again when I get back home from work tonight.
//edit: Battery calibration didn't help. I'll just have to wait until the new battery arrives. Or should I try locking the bootloader?
Why you want locking your bootloader?
Do you want to send it to the support
If you already bought a new battery, wait for it and put it in
Seems that the battery itself was the issue after all. After putting in the new battery, everything seems to be back to normal.

New Gear battery sometimes goes from 1% to 100% while screen is off

Hello Good People,
Can someone please help with this SM-V700 battery issue.
This week I replaced my battery and all seemed well but the same issue is happening again.
I would use the gear, and when I thought the screen was simply off it wouldn't turn on. I would put it on the charger and after a few seconds it would read 1% and within seconds it would go to 100% and I would than be able to power on the device.
Any tips or solutions for this issue? I thought it was a battery issue so that is why I replaced the battery with a brand new.
I can be using the watch with 100% full battery, and when I press the power button I get nothing. I put it on the charger like mentioned above and bam... from 1% to full in seconds.
???
T.I.A.
