Try to completely empty the battery by rebooting after your phone shuts down because of low battery. Keep rebooting it after it shuts down again till it doesn't want to boot anymore. Till the battery is completely empty.
Then Charge it again and leave it on the charger for more then 20 hours.
Don't know if it's gonna work but give it a try
EDIT: Q? are you using a custom ROM ??

Ok I'll give it a try, thank you. I have this problem since i flashed a modaco firmware and wiped my battery cache via cwm. Anyone else having those issues?

I reverted back to stock on my O2X and I can get 48 hours out of the battery. I had the same issue as you and reverting back to stock seemed to cure it too.
Just an FYI I thought I'd share.

48hours when you are using him or 48h max on standby

USE phone heavily. Use it till the system turns OFF automatically
Turn OFF phone
Charge till it says it is FULL
Start phone in RECOVERY Mode
Select Advanced CWM Features
Select Wipe Battery Stats
RESTART phone

Sorry, should have given more detail. That 48 hours is with general browsing and social networking with a fair bit of video recording and camera use. No 3G though. All data was over WiFi.
Certainly not just stand-by though.

No full power use of the processor i understand

i thought i had the problem too with the MDC fear 5.3 but it just jumped from 98% to 100 after 10 minutes so its probably a mistake which solved itselve if you charge it long enough.

Didn't work for me, i did it exactly this way, charged it for about 10 hours, booted in recovery, wiped the battery stats and it stills shows 97% when i boot it. However, it's not a disastrous failure, i can live with it and hopefully it gets fixed sometime.

Finally, i found the solution for me. After i reflashed the stock rom, where this problem doesn't occur, i flashed a modaco rom again WITHOUT WIPING THE BATTERY STATS. Now it's all working fine, i charged my phone to 100% a few minutes ago. Hope it will help some of the people, who are still having problems.

Does kernel version has anything to do with this issue?

Don't think so, i tried the stock, Paul's kernel from FR12 and the EternityProject Kernels 1.3 and 1.4, it was all the same until i tried reflashing without wiping battery stats. For the record, i flashed the new TK-Rom V 0.6 with the EternityProject Kernel 1.4.

[Q]Android-system 29% of Battery JVQ

Hi,
I recently updated my phone to JVQ but now i'm having a battery drain. The cause (i think) is the high percentage of the android-system. By now its 29% and that's alot. I already deleted the programe software-updater so that can't be the trouble maker anymore. Does someone has a fix for this?

Yeah....let your battery go completely dead, then try turning on to make sure its dead
Leave your phone off and then plug in charger until its full, then unplug and plug in again to make sure its full
Repeat these steps 2-3 times and it should be all fixed for you
Also....using titanium backup, freeze the program called "Samsung account" that's another culprit in the "battery drain crisis"

Try going back to stock froyo, and flashing cfroot kernel so your phone is rooted but not deodexed or any other mods, then repeat the cycle and see if it gets better that way.

OP you need a battery calibration:
First link on google http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1616598
Googling "battery calibration android" and your O2X will tank you !
As I said, I loaded battery to 100% and wiped battery stats from CWM. But even right after the following boot I couldn't get the battery empty, because suddenly the battery stat ran down to 0, after reboot it was back to 38%.
I only have this problem with CM7-based ROMs. At the moment i'm using Modaco, battery works fine!
I flashed my device again:
- battery fully loaded
- full wipe
- wiped dalvk cache
- wiped battery stats
- flashed Gueste 3.6
Battery was at 100%. Last time I looked on the battery status it reached 26%. About 30 min later the phone was off. Turned it on again - 25% battery.
So calibration didn't help.
Any ideas....?

Maybe you just need to replace your battery for a new one. Batteries don't last forever, some time ago I had to change my nb battery
If anyone else has this problem: it always occurred when I had bad network connection.

ya i've done it.Only few apps running.When my screen is on while typing a text i lost 2% so quickly.
i'll use this method
Battery not "calibrated" - we don't have real facts on this one yet, so consider this our best guess
Explanation: It is said that the battery looses track of it's capacity (or rather the phone does) so it needs calibration.
Fix #1: Always flash new ROM:s with full battery.
Fix #2: Follow the guide TechnicR have on recal:
· Turn phone off and charge till full
· Start recovery and wipe battery stats
· Reboot and start the phone
· Use it heavily until it turns of by itself
· Connect charger and turn on the phone and wait until fully charged
i'll get back to you once i do these things..Let see if it fix my problem. If its not fixing means which rom should i use it for better battery life ???

If you want battery friendly use Phil kennel and hydracore is performance . You know what to do & your choice
i flash speedmod kernal.But still no luck.In Standby mode battery life is stable.But if i play a game or watch a movie for 5 mins battery drops 20%.
How do i fix it ??
I searched this forum many guys having the same problem but coudn't find a perfect solutions for it.

[BUG] Battery Bug for Stock 4.2.2

THIS BUG CAN DO HARM TO YOUR BATTERY! BECAUSE YOU WILL NEVER KNOW WHEN THE BATTERY DRAINS!
As we all may encounter the battery bug after upgrading to .423 fw. When one restarts his phone, he has chances that the battery level of the phone rises (e.g., I turned off mine just now at 26% and turned it on showing 51%). This has been confirmed by many users in the forum, so I believe it is a firmware level bug of 4.2.2.
Is there any one willing to pay some time on fixing it? Coz this is a quite crucial bug for us, we dont know when will our phones automatically turn off! Thanks in advance
I believe its not a caliboration thing coz we also upgrade or wipe our devices before, and no such thing happened. I think its a firmware or kernel level bug. Does anyone who flashes a custom kernel also encounter the same problem?
It seems that Spanish FW is free from this bug.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=43261281
plz report your rom or base FW in the reply. Thanks.
[NEW EDIT]
It seems that I fix the bug. The battery jumps when the phone restarts, so I think there is something during boot which causes the issue. I delete the XZDualRecovery, and test the phone several times, and its fine!
Deleting XZDualRecovery might be a temporary fix, so you can choose what to do
[NEW EDIT 2]
someone reports that they dont encounter the bug and believes that its the calibration thing. i declare again that i DID the calibration and the issue was still there. for me, at least, deleting XZDualRecovery fixes the bug. plz report more details in the reply, like fw, root or not, recoveries. Thank you
I don't think there is a bug here.
Never happened to me,cause i did full wipe while flashing.
Maybe it happens only for users that didn't wiped everything.

There is no kernel for 4.2.2. DoomKernel supports fw before 423. Correct me if Im wrong. Also in LB and know not much about custom kernels.

1)First I drained the battery fully until mobile gets switched off
2)Then I left the mobile to cool off for half an hour
3)After that I charged the battery upto 100%
4)Following this I switched on the Mobile and did the battery calibration by using 'Battery Calibration' app
5)Again I fully drained the battery and charged it again to 100%
Now the battery life seems good. I checked this by using WiFi whole night....battery lasted overs 12hrs

This is exactly what I concern. I dont know when my phone is going to off, and it could be big trouble when there is no access to the charger.
Maybe we just need to recalibrate, drain battery to 0% and fully charge it to 100% while the phone is turned off.
plz give some feedback if it works

I experiencing the same issue. 2% to 55% after reboot. wow... 4.2.2 doesn't bring anything for me to consider to keep it. so back to 4.1.2 (.4.3.4)
But one thing for sure (never discharge a lithium ion / polymer battery from full to 0 they don't like it) you could do that with nickel cadmium/ metal hydride batteries ant they really thank for that if you keep doing that you just kill your battery before its due time.

Random reboots and battery drain

Hi to all, I've trouble in this day with random reboots when I make a call or using data connection. After battery is completely drained and phone starts to bootloop.
Then when I plug the phone to the elettricity, it shows me up 50% of the battery.
If I left it in stand by or using sms, it has no reboot, if I make a call or something "strange" with 3g starts to bootloop.
What should I do? :banghead:

Hi
I was going to start a new thread on this issue.
The same is happening to me. I'm using right now R-Mod by ronin790, great ROM BTW. I tried wiping dalvik and normal cache, installing different kernels and issue is still present.
Weird thing, though, when I go to recovery (TWRP 2.7.1.0 by Android-Andi) my battery doesn't drain nor the phone reboots. It stays "normal". Only when booting to system the issue starts. In my case random reboots and abnormal battery charge starts between 30-50%.
It's a shame that our batteries came out defective. I'm afraid this is not covered under warranty, right?
Best
I think not, but you can get an extended 3600mah battery from eBay. I'm currently waiting for mine
Yes, it does make the phone thicker, but it's worth the extra battery time you're going to get.
