Just this morning I pulled my nexus off the charger and went to install some apps on my fresh new ROM (micromod .20). Now, when I plug in my phone, the battery status says "Full" even though the battery is only at 91%. It was working fine for the past week or so, so I don't feel like it's a problem with the ROM.... Any help?
Please search next time.
Nexus doesn't start to charge, if the battery is above 90%.
I've read that elsewhere, but occasionally mine will not charge even in the seventies or eighties. But thank yo for the input, I will keep an eye out for that.
Recently flashed Cog 4.2.2 with Existz betav7.
I have cycled the battery about 4 times, further on my last charge I did a bump charge and at 100% I wiped my caches and batt stats.
When the phone is on but charging, even though the notification bar and battery stats say full/100%, the lock screen says 99%.
I searched and did not find an answer to this question, other than replies that said to cycle and bump charge. I have done both but it is still not working.
Any ideas?
Soo,
I'm pretty new to flashing ROM's and have only flashed a few (Serendipity, Cognition, Continuum). But on my last flash of Continuum I noticed that my battery life wasn't as good as everybody else using the ROM had claimed to be. So I wen't through the steps of recalibrating my battery, using this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=765656&highlight=calibrate+battery
I noticed that when my phone was powered off and hooked to the charger, the battery wouldn't show up indicating its power level. It would only show the little circular loading icon then a blank battery would pop up with the circular loading icon on it, then it would disappear, repeat. Disappear, repeat. I didn't understand why this was happening. I took my battery out, rebooted the phone, still the same results.
What could be the problem I thought? I searched the forums and I couldn't find this issue anywhere. So the other day I hooked my phone up to another charger and VIOLA!! It worked!! So the problem was in the charger!!
Since I couldn't find this in any other threads I thought I would post my own.
Hopes this helps anybody else who may be having this problem
My NookHD+ has been working fine with CM10.1.3 stable on EMMC. The other day I got home and it was dead even though when I used it in the morning it had at least 50% charge. I plugged it in and the charging indicator was slowly flashing green/amber and then would have several quick red flashes and then just go out. There was a battery icon on the screen that was empty and that was it. I tried another charger and got the same thing. I left it charge all night and the next morning it booted automatically into recovery, I rebooted and it loaded cm but only showed 8% charge. Left it on the charger all day and when I got home it was fully charged. (whew)
There still seemed to be issues though. I could no longer get into recovery and when I plugged it into the charger I was still getting the amber/green flashing, although it does seem to charge. I thought when charging it should just stay solid amber, my wife's HD is solid amber while charging. Thinking I may need to replace it under warranty, I have currently gone back to straight stock to see what happens. I sometimes get the flashing charge indicator and sometimes solid amber. Is this normal or is something going bad?
So I've had this phone for about a year now, the moment I got it I unlocked the bootloader, rooted it and flashed cyanfox (cm11 fork) onto it.
It's been serving me great ever since, no problems whatsoever with it.
But as of a few days back I found it with a black screen, unresponsive. I connected the charger and it light up the green led solid, tries to boot but can't get past the boot loader message
This continues in an almost endless loop until getting to a 'battery 1%' screen with it showing the battery. After that I'm able to boot it up without problem
I first thought that was the end of it.. I finally got it too boot all seemed fine, battery showed 3% at start up bit voltage was suggesting it was 100%. It flashed to 100% later.
Good, no problem until then. But when leaving it over night to charge and disconnecting it from the charger this morning it turned off again. And now it's back in the bootloop when on charger :crying:
also important to mention is that when it crashes and gets into the bootloop on charger(0% battery and all) it was at 50-100% before the crash.
If anyone has any ideas what might be the cause I'd be very thankful
Main problem(s):
-random crashes instantly rendering battery % as 0 while there is still charge
-getting atrix hd to turn on at <1% battery
Some maybe useful information:
-it does say 'battery OK' in fastboot while connected to the wallcharger
-after I get it to boot it will run just fine on battery and charge as normal, but will crash/brick again after some time
-I can get into boot selection screen and fastboot, but only on wallcharger
-I cannot get to fastboot when connected to use, pc doesn't see the phone
-It won't boot past the bootloader('Motorola logo' for you on not unlocked bootloaders) no matter the boot selection(recovery, bp tools etc)
-This is a second hand model already in use by me (the second owner) for over a year now
-no custom kernel, only rom, cyanfox 4.4.2 (cm11 based)
-the few times it got past the bootloop and I was able to boot was on my aftermarket charger (stock charger will make the green led light up but no proof of being able to get past bootloop over time on it)
I've had dead batteries before.. and since It looked good last time I got it on (it won't go on at all now) I was skeptic about the battery being dead. But a quick test of the multimeter gives me <1v :crying:
I know batteries can be drained pretty bad.. but this just seems a bit extreme.. I'll try to get it to boot for a while.
Thanks in advance for any helpful solutions or ideas on the matter
EDIT: Got it on again last night, turned off this morning when pulling out the charger, was at 100%. Checked battery and again read around 1V.
blaming the battery, ordered a new one just in case, should be here in a month or so. Still open for suggestions on the matter

Did you fix it somehow in the end?
My Atrix HD freezes after several minutes(sometimes even on wall charger). Bought new battery, tried to reset everything: usb storage, cash, system, factory reset. Went back to ROM I was using before(stable) but didn't help.

It ended up being the battery, all problems were gone after I changed the battery.
Which in the end wasn't so bad because I'd been wanting to upgrade my eb20 to an eb40
No Idea to what it could be in your case.
Everything working appart from that? no battery hickups or things not working properly?

"0% battery after crashes" that is what was happening in the begging, so I thought it is the battery. I changed it to UB40
but everything's got worse. With the new battery I have crashes even when the battery is almost full.(but not always, for example I can play movie from youtube normally, but when I try to send sms or something else it crashes ).
Hard to believe that there is something with the new battery(I have it just one week+It took a month to ship from ebay).
I tried to flash another ROM, but still have freezes.
Last thing sometimes battery charges normally but then suddenly jumps to ~100%. Now I try to flash Stock ROM, but eventually soft bricked the phone. (+had "battery low" in fastboot, while charging animation was saying 100%)
Where did you buy EB40?
