Battery Stuck at 50%

Anyone else having a similar problem or know of a way to fix it?

It takes a *while* to charge. Mine just hit 60%.

We shall see, been charging all day... anytime i take it off charging drops to 40ish%

Im using battstatt and it drops by 10 percent.....90.80.70 im gonna let thr battery die completely before charging and see if it changes

OK, I just saw this in another thread too... mine has maxed at 60%. Gonna le it rest, shut it off over night and put it on another charger. See what everyone says tomorrow!

Seriously guys, charge it from an outlet. It charges *really slowly* through USB.

anyone else go through the initial charge, recharge and have it at 10% 9 hrs later?

10 hours total on 4G? That's not terrible.

Charge via USB that is connected to your PC takes forever...but it does charge.
But if you unplug it and charge via the power adapter, it is much faster.

i charged mine via usb and the wall socket, wouldn't go past 50%.
I went to bed and plugged it in to teh wall charger (charge for ~7 hours), checked when i woke up, 50%
went to the verizon store and they gave me a new battery (started at 50%). plugged the phone in 2/3 hours ago, im still at 50%
my dad mentioned it could be a bad fuel gauge chip (he works at TI)

So for whatever reason, you have to use the charger that came in the box. I've had the same problem, but it was because I was using chargers from older Moto phones and HTC phones. Now that I'm using the actual Bionic charger, it's charging fast like it should.
Silly, but it apparently is the case.

I bought a wall charger that you take the battery out of the phone and charge.takes 2 hours with xtra battery 15 bucks mobiletech

From what I've read about newer handsets, the phone needs some time to figure out know how to convert raw readings into percentage of capacity. I believe, the phone figures out how much charge a battery has based on the voltage. And, I don't think the relationship is linear.

My battery seemed to be horrible the first day. Today, I've gone through 30% after 5 hours, with the screen being on for 35 minutes and wifi connected for just under two hours. I don't know if the battery is "breaking in" or the phone is reading the level differently, but things are looking better.

[Q] Any disadvantages of frequent charging?

Are there any disadvantages to having the phone plugged in a frequently as possible (e.g. charging over night, car charging, charging while at work)? I have been favoring 897 leaks over 9000 roms mainly because of battery life. I have been a fan of Apex roms and now that A11 is out I want to give it a try but I know I won't get the same battery life as Illuminance. Could I damage my Captivate from frequent charging?

Now i could be wrong, but frequently charging *may* reduce the life of the battery....i believe every batter has a certain amount of "charging cycles" it can have before the battery begins to lose charge quicker...again, i could be wrong..

True, batteries do have a certain account of charge cycles, but a charge cycle is a 100% drain and back up again.
So down to 50 then charge, 75 charge, 75 charge, is only 1 full cycle.
So whether you wait to charge til it's dead enough to not run the phone (it actually shuts off before true 0% to save the life of the battery) or you grab some spare juice when you can, your battery should have about the same life span.

Ya this is true but I find I that I get much better battery life if I do a bump charge. Ive charged to 100% on the phone screen, turned off the phone, plugged the charger back in, and had it charge for another half hour until it hit 100%. So I dont know what it is about charging in that fashion that works for me but it really seems to help. I also am pretty good about cycling my battery 0-100 100-0 so that may help.

bump charging will kill battery life long term..
Also, be careful with car chargers. Some of them are designed to charge faster which will also shorten the over all life of the battery.

Lithium batteries don't like to be drained fully. The best time to charge is 30-40%. Also lithium doesn't like the "fast" charge. Basically be easy on the drain/charge/level and it will last longer.
The 1/2 hour you're talking about is because the last 5-10% takes the longest. You can actually charge from ~40%-80%+ very shortly due to the way Lithium works.

As I said above, the phone shuts off before the battery reaches 0%. You notice it still has enough power to run the charging animations even though its too dead to boot.
the phone also stops charging at 100% let drain to 95 and back up, to prevent overcharging.
both are to save the lifespan of the battery.

Discharging below three volts will cause damage. Charging over four point two volts will cause damage. Charging at a greater rate than one C will cause damage. One C is equal to the capacity of the cell. Our stockers at 1500mAh should not be charged at a rate greater than one point five amps. I believe the stock charger outputs 800mAh, or point eight amps. Any damage to the cell will definitely shorten life. The more you use a battery the faster it will die, true with any type. Hope this helps someone.

I don't really see this as a matter of choice. My phone dies daily, so I have to charge it daily; I have to bite whatever happens with it anyway. If it helps, I got my phone on launch and have been using the same battery through my warranty replacements. My battery maxes out at roughly 15 hours of moderate use, 20 of light use.

frequent charging reduce battery life so it is better to charge when ur battery is left with 15% or below and charge it completly

This is very true of Lithium ion batteries. They like to be kept topped up constantly. Not letting it go to 0% consantly helps. This is very different from NiMH or NiCd, where the "memory" effect requires you to completely discharge the battery before next charge.
The best way is to just put the phone on charger whenever you are not using it - if ever - just plug it in and let it sit till you use next time.....

FFS how many times must I say it? THE BATTERY NEVER REACHES 0%!!!
There is ALWAYS some amount of charge even when the phone won't come on.

Very true. If you discharge a lithium cell below three volts, you run the risk of it catching fire or exploding.
Should've mentioned earlier that as the battery degrades, it loses capacity. This is what causes them to seem they're not "lasting as long" or "draining faster".

[Q] How long does it take to charge your phone?

As topics says and like your battery is under %20 percent approximately how long does it take to get it fully charged

About 1.5 - 2 hours

Mine seems about the same, however if your using the phone wile charging it takes a lot longer, which is strange because there should be enough current to charge and use simultaneously.

1 hour 45 minutes from 25%, also I have juice plotter installed and theres a widget that you can put on your homescreen that changes from time left to how much time it takes to charge when it is actually charging which is kind of neat.

ty i think my phones charge time is increased will try tonight again

3:35 from 0 to 100

You guys could try a 2 amps charger (such as the one that comes with the ipad), theres some evidence it will charge faster, although not by much.

30 seconds.

But seriously, about 3 hours from empty to full on the charger that came with it, and about 2 hours with my 2amp galaxy tab charger.

True when I charge my GS2 with my Galaxy tab charger its dramatically faster.

._. there must be something wrong with my gnote then ... it takes around 4h30m to fully charge from around 10%... and even longer if using phone at same time...
I had several smartphones and this one is the one with the worst battery ever ... my dell streak's battery charges faster and even tho it also has a 5" screen, its 1500mAh battery lasts longer with the same usage.
Yesterday my gnote battery took 3h30m to go from 100% to 13% just from playing 2h30m of games and 1h browsing... innaceptable! and I do use betterbatterystats and I have few wakelocks that could be draining battery...
This phone charging scheme is really crappy, as I understand from my use, while charging instead of the charger powering both the phone and the battery at same time, I think it only charges the battery and the phone is always powered by the battery alone...
I din read about it yet, but I almost sure the gnote works like that, cause if i use Skype video call for example, i only get a 1% charge increase around every 10mins, which is really ridiculous ...
plus, while with my other smartphones I could take out the battery while charging it and the phones would keep powered, same thing doesn't happen with the note... battery off while charging, phone also off, which can only mean IMO that the phone is 100% only powered by the battery even when charging...
Besides making it take longer to charge, won't the battery life also decrease that way?..

How long does a battery last?

I have had my note 4 a year now and have been an extreme user with lots of games, movies, Netflix, Ingressing, drawing etc.
I was wondering when I should start to get ready for a new battery?
I figure I should be getting close to its useful life soon and what to be ready since I should replace the one in the wife's note also.

6 months to a year
Sent from my SM-N910T3 using Tapatalk

Time to get new one soon. Once you start seeing battery dropping from 15-30 % to 1% within a minutes then replacement is needed. I replaced mine after 14 months. I choose anker instead samsung.

Well i have an external anker and currently always near a outlet so I never see 15% lol. But will be on amazon looking for new batteries

Proper battery cycling is key to long battery life. Allow battery to use up 90 to 95% of its charge then fully charge. Topping off battery constantly will shorten battery life drastically.

I have read many different things about when to charge, over night charging etc and pretty much from experts and no one ever says the same thing.
Topping off I have read its good and bad so when it comes to charging I will keep doing what I do now since I don't notice any loss. Hell I charge while playing games.
According to phone info app I have plugged in charger 1456 times and battery health is still good.
I just know with heavy use and games like Ingress battery won't last for ever and I am shopping now for batteries.

How To Guide How to extend your battery life (Xiaomi Scammed Us)

THROW YOUR 120W CHARGER AWAY.​
Get a charger for around 65W.​
Get a decently good brand. ( I'm using Anker, 65W Mi Charger is also good. )​
Anything below 30W would be too slow to charge your phone. Not really practical.​
Personally tested a 10W charger, did not work out for me as it doesn't give me the same battery performance.​
In my opinion, Xiaomi played us on this one. The 120W charger is a marketing gimmick. I don't think it charges the phone to 100% even though it shows 100%. Either that, or it messes with the battery calibration. As soon as I charge with a 65W charger, the battery goes back to performing properly. By that I mean, lasts me the entire day, and I still have 35-40% remaining the next day on medium usage like maps, streaming. On heavy usage, it still gives me great battery.
I'm 100% sure, you will notice the difference if you switch away from 120W charger as it will drastically extend the battery.
If you have already experienced the difference or made the switch, please do share your experience. On the stock xiaomi charger provided with the phone, the battery life is really terrible, the same usage gets me barely to the end of the day.
If you're still not satisfied by the drastic difference made by the charger only.

How to increase the battery life of the Xiaomi 11T / T Pro
Hello guys, I want to tell you about the adjustments that I have made to my Xiaomi 11T Pro and that have improved battery consumption, keeping the refresh rate of the screen at 120Hz. I would appreciate if you could tell me how it went...
forum.xda-developers.com

It will be simply because it is a fast charger, incredibly fast, and you can't completely charge lithium batteries fast, there is always a slow end stage that will take an hour or more regardless of how many watts the charger is. The last top off stage, or saturation stage on lithium cells needs by definition to take time and will charge at a lower current and it has to be slower.
They are showing 100% on fast charging, but that's only the bulk charge capacity with a lot of the saturation stage not done, so you don't get full capacity. The 100% indicator is saying you've charged as much as you can fast, but it might only be 70% actually full. If it is left on the charger, it will likely wait until the temperature has dropped then continue for an hour or so completing the saturation charge, all while still indicating charging is complete, but if you remove it from the charger the moment it hits 100%, then it's not the same 100% you'd get by leaving for a couple of hours.
If they indicated 100% correctly as being as charged as it can be, it will take 20 minutes on fast charge plus an hour or two for the saturation stage to be done, so doesn't quite sell as well!
Xiaomi are cheating somewhat by saying 0 to 100% in x time on fast charge, as the definition of 100% when fast charging is changed.
Personally I just charge over night at 5 watt, better for the battery and you get full capacity.

Great insight, they should have mentioned it in a different way instead of saying it's 100% charged. But then that ain't gonna earn them any bucks.
Are you getting a good battery life on 5W? As when i was using the 10W charger and use the phone at the same time it would take forever to charge. And the battery sot wasn't as good as well compared to 65W sot for similar usage.

I also use 10w (5v 2A) and can get for about 8h of sot, charging time is in my case takes about 2:20h from 17-100%Its not that bad, and i prefere slow charging time anyway, i only use 120w when in hurry

If you are using the phone at the same time as charging, you are of course using a chunk of that 5 watts to power the phone, so whilst your battery may not be discharging, there isn't much left over to charge it up.
I always charge overnight as I easily get a day if not a few days from a single charge as I'm not using it much currently as working from home, but if you need to top up during the day whilst still perhaps using it, you would need a charger with a bit more wattage.
Also note that whilst it may say 100% charged, that could represent anywhere from say 95% to 100% actual charge. This is because lithium cells can not be trickle charged, so when charging it will get to being a full capacity, then charging stops, the battery is allowed to discharge several percent before automatically being topped up again, and the cycle continues. So depending on where in that cycle you take the phone of charge, you might be really at 100%, but could equally be at 95%. Because people would complain if the true charge status was shown, i.e. people leave the phone on charge all night and its still only showing 95% in the morning simply because it's on the discharge stage of the discharge/top up cycle when they look at it, they would complain, so 100% is shown from say anywhere between 95% and 100% of real charge state. This applies to all devices. It is why sometimes you take your phone of charge at 100% and it seems to stay at 100% for some time, and other times it starts going down soon after you've unplug it from the charger. Google on their Pixels have an adaptive battery setting and use the alarm clock you've set to know when you are getting up, so they make sure they time that cycle so that you get the phone at a real 100% capacity.

Good thread fellas. Yeah 120w it's just a thing you should use when there's not another option or your in a real rush. And by using it your battery calibration might get confused.
It's as the OP mentioned, with 120w you can feel that your battery life is shorter than charging with lower wattages.
IMO and experience I calibrated my phone's battery (drained it to 0 let it turn off , leave it unattended for around 10 min, then charge it with a 10w while still turned off if possible. And leave it charging 1h more after it says 100%) and b ayer doing so my 11t pro finally became the 2-day phone it should have been from day one.
I personally prefer to charge mine with a 18w (1h20min) or a 22.5w (1h) during the day. 10w it's just for overnight, it's just to long 2h40min or more.

This might be the reason why Samsung nor Apple has not yet jump into bandwagon of 100w-ish charging. Even not to 65w. It just my hunch though. Still, 100w-ish charging might be life changing in certain situation. And if I recall correctly, the most ideal percentage to charge Li-On is around 80-ish, that might the actual percentage that we get if we charge to 100% with 100w-ish charger.

To be honest i tried 33w charger and 120w charger and battery performance for me is the same(4.5sot + 6 background yt music)
The thing is when u use 120W charger and battery go 100% you have to let it charge 5-10 min more because is not fully charged.
You can check with app called ampere(download from playstore)

Please try a 65W charger from xiaomi or anker, i guarantee you the difference. Sot also depends on the usage, but there will surely be a drastic increase in the battery capacity.
And i completely agree to your point on trickle charging. But unfortunately, it does not justify the 4 hrs sot difference im getting after charging my phone through different chargers. 65W gives me 8 hours, whereas 120W full charge gives me around 4 hours.
I feel xiaomi really just did this as a marketing gimmick and did a half hazard job at it.

Like i previously mentioned as well in the above post, trickle charging or that 5-10% of charge shouldnt make the difference im experiencing after switching chargers. 4 hours sot difference is no joke. Its literally half battery capacity.
I love the phone, but Xiaomi really messed around with us on this.

Unfortunately i don't have a 65w charger :/
I get 4.5 sot because i also use yt music for 6-7 hours in background + 5g all dhe time.
The problem i noticed is that when i use my phone after charging my battery gives me good sot (5 hour non stop gaming mlbb and still have 25% left). But if i charge at night and use the phone the next day the battery drain really fast (that's why i charge every morning before i leave home).
I'm not really happy with battery life to be honest but im really happy with charging speed
+ How you guys get sot 8hrs?. I never couldn't do that with my phones( old device k20 pro average 5hrs sot)

Even after switching away from 120W charger, if you're not seeing a drastic difference, then i recommend changing the chargers to something similar to what i own (anker) about 65W or a mi charger 65W (official). Because i personally experienced the huge battery life change, and i know this phone can give a 1.5 day battery life on medium usage. On heavy usage it lasts me easily the entire day (8hours sot easy). But usage may vary. And when i was using 120W charger, it was giving me 4hours sot, with the same usage. So i know, the phone has the capacity to do it.
Maybe it could be a non branded charger issue? I'm not sure. It should show quick charging when charging via the different charger as well that way you know its getting the juice it requires.

Rocking a Xiaomi 67W charger and so far not much difference. I'm using the phone out of the box, I am not switching back to 60hz since whats the point of buying it if you wont use 120hz. Lets see after a few more cycles.
EDIT: After using this 67W for 2 days now, battery life is the same. IT might not be the charger but going back to 60 Hz might be the reason some ppl had improved battery life. I will return back to 120W since I prefer the ultra fast charging while the phone stays cool at the same time (mine is at 40-41 degrees C and it charges around 20 minutes)
EDIT 2: Tried 60hz for a day, since I was out with family, it noticeably improved battery life even though I charged with the 120W adapter. Hopefully Xiaomi adds a dynamicswitch feature for us soon or a 90hz option

I tried using my phone on 120hz for a day or two, i get like an hour less compared to 60hz i find a major difference in battery even with 120hz enabled.
Not sure why. But if it works, it works.
Also just to clear my experience, i never use this phone on 120hz, even when i initially was using the 120w charger. It has always been set to 60hz for me, as i like to save battery wherever i can.

Update: Using accubattery, when my phone reached 100%, its still taking in current around 1500-2000mah range (around 10-15w) and its trickle charging the battery. The estimated capacity when reaching 100% is around 2200 mah(times 2 since our phone is a dual cell battery) then letting it trickle charge for a few minutes (an extra 10) made the capacity to 2550(which is around 5100 mah) and by doing so I am easily getting 6-7 hr sot on 120HZ. It may be a marketing trick to reach 100% in an instant but leave it plugged in for an extra 10 mins or so to get more screen on time.

quite great battery life

Update: Using accubattery, when my phone reached 100%, its still taking in current around 1500-2000mah range (around 10-15w) and its trickle charging the battery. The estimated capacity when reaching 100% is around 2200 mah(times 2 since our phone is a dual cell battery) then letting it trickle charge for a few minutes (an extra 10) made the capacity to 2550(which is around 5100 mah) and by doing so I am easily getting 6-7 hr sot on 120HZ.

Don't trust the apps. Find some real volt meter.

Amazing!
MIUI 13 by any chance?

I am on miui 13 official, had heavy battery drain on miui12.5, disabled miui optimizations and now everything is good
Edit: apparently the program that handles battery changed after disabling miui optimizations, maybe it's a bug related issue
