Battery Problem

My phone suddenly just shuts down when I'm using it... not a "powering off" but just out of nowhere turns off
Anyone know what the problem might be?
I've had this same issue before, so I bought a new battery last month and it worked great until just last week...
I've tried resetting the battery stats....nothing....
The battery still fully charges and shows the correct percentage when I plug in the charger to use...
Could it be the ROM or battery issue?
....I'm currently using cannon's rom... 2.2.1
Anyone know how to fix?..... thanks

Well if you have a new battery already. And it shows its good. I think it might be the rom then.

Something to take note, What are you doing when it does this?
-Surfing net on the phone
-Listening to music
-Charging
-Tethering
Keeping in mind that the phone will shut its self down (it should) if your battery starts to over heat. On my Hero the charge light flashes before it shuts down and it gets really hot to the touch. Also at higher heat temps, overall battery life suffers.

my phones shuts down usually when wifi is on and im sirfing or using youtube app or google maps(every time i use wifi for a while this happens...)
it also shuts down rarely on calls and sometimes when im trying to flash a new rom...
it doesnt powers on until i connect it on AC...
I REALLY NEED HELP...
ps:if i change the battery will my problem been solved?

it turns off randomly...even when im just browsing through the home screens... a full charge will last me like 5 minutes max.... no matter what im doing an the battery doesnt overheat at all...
and when i plug it in to the charger, it shows the correct percentage.. well at least an estimate of what it could be (for about 5 min of use before shut down= 95%)

I have the same problem, It is extremely frustrating.
The shutdowns would happen randomly during surfing the net or using google maps. It would shut down out of no where and it would be impossible to turn back without being plugged into a charger since the phone thinks it battery is at 0 even it was just charged to full before the shutdown. I tried to calibrate the battery but it would just shut down while I'm trying to burn through the charge with the screen on. This is the such a nuisance, can't even get through one day.
I am using biffmod 1.8 so I don't know if this is a rom related problem.

I'm havuing the exact same problem. Even with a full battery, the pgone will shut down when I do anything more than a text or two here and there. When I put it on the charger I will still have a significant amount of power left. I've tried doing full wipes and changing roms. I think it might actually be related to the radio. This began after I updated the radio. It would get stck on formatting the cache. I tried going back to the old radio, but the problem has persisted.. and it also got stuck on formatting cache...
I hope someone can help with this bc it pretty much renders the phone useless when it's not being charged. =\

try change the battery...this solve my prob

you could try recalibrating the battery.
let your phone die.
plug it in for so long that you are 100% sure that it is full.
boot to recovery wipe battery stats.
boot normal
use it and let it die.
recharge again until its full BEFORE booting it.
if you sure its full boot normal.
if you follow this cycle some times it should be fine.
Only issue: you have to wait long until its full and you always have to be near an ac

i've tried re-callibration.. guess i will have to get another battery..
i don't think it's the battery though bc others with the same problem said that the problem persisted after getting a new battery.. =\ we'll see.. thanks for the replies.

Battery percentage problem

My SGT is having a strange battery percentage problem. The battery was at 95% and the unit was on flight mode last night with no apps running. This morning it was dropped to 78% (over about 6.5hrs). So I turned it off and restarted, the battery percentage was back to 94%.
For some reasons, the battery percentage is dropping way too fast until I restart the unit, it seems like android is reporting a wrong battery percentage. Or could it be the battery? Does anyone experience the same problem? Any solution? And what is the normal power consumption under flight mode for other SGT user?
I just did a hard reset (wipe cache/data and reset to factory) to see if it helps and I am not installing any apps just to keep it in stock condition.
Thanks!

Generally, about 3% lose of bettery during the whole night with mobile on, while power meter may go wrong on Android devices, for example XT701 is.
Sent from my GT-P1000 using XDA App

So the XT701 has the same problem? How do they resolve this?
I start to think if I should take it to Samsung for repair.

Any help guys??
Would flashing a new firmware help the situation? I am tired of rebooting the tab so often just to get the right battery percentage report.
Other than this issue, the tab is PERFECT. I just wanna get this over with and enjoy using it.

Still looking for helps.....

Galaxy Grand Quattro: battery is fine, just the prob is with the indicator
Galaxy Grand Quattro : while charging it suddenly jumps from 78% to 100% and asks to unplug the charger. When i unplug it it shows 78 or 80% back again !!! I believe that this is related to software issue. So i have done a factory reset, but no use. someone pls help if this is a known issue.. Googled abt it but dint fine anything there.. Thanx in advance.

[SOLVED] Incorrect Battery Values

This seems to be quite a common and somewhat obscure at the same time.
Many people have reported installing a new rom or even just powering up their phone and seeing a battery % much different from what they expect. Most often much lower than it should be. Evidently this corrects itself after some time but it's a real problem if your display reads <15% because you really have to plug it in then, even with you know you have 90% battery!
So, here's the solution after testing it under different circumstances over a few days:
Simply boot your phone when it is not plugged in to a power source and battery % will be accurate.​
That simple. Silly LG!
So, if you flash a new rom, unplug the USB cable before you reboot...
Hit 'Thanks' below for the 50 reboots I did to prove this...

hehehe jups allready figured that out on myself tho haha. But indeed that's kinda silly of LG

What about every time I use a custom rom the battery % indicator jumps right down to 90-95% when unplugging from charger ? Do you have a solution for that ?

Sorry to say the same..
Even while charging with the phone shut down, pulling it off the charger and then booting this happens. On my phone I have experienced it on all MCR's.
It's really not a big deal as long as the battery performs as Stock 10b, that build has been stable batterywise on my phone. But staying stock isn't too much fun

Well, every time I charge, whether I reboot/shut down before unplugging or not, my charge always maxes out at 96%.
Annoying and I'd like it sorted if at all possible.
Anyone?..........lol

ye i got that exact same issue i was wondering why that was happening and hoped that a simple reboot would fix it but its a bit more complicated than that i suppose...
also the battery reset in cwm didnt fix the loading till 97% w/e percentage.
when i install the stock rom it allows me to load it till 100% though pretty weird stuff -.-

I had a replacement netbook battery that could only max to 90%. So, over the weekend, I practically drained it to 0% (not a healthy practice for Li-ion batteries but I was desperate). Took out the battery for a while, and then recharged for several hours. Well, it seems to get up to 100% now.
Perhaps you could try using the the phone until it very low on battery before recharging. Maybe the charging process in the phone needs some sort of recalibration. But should not be doing this all the time as it will reduce Li-ion battery longevity.

Let mine totally die last night so it wouldn't even turn on at all. Took out and replaced battery and then charged it overnight and hey-presto, when I unplugged it this morning, it stayed at 100%.
Solved indeed....for me anyway. Feel free to try the same and post your results.

I'll be sure to try your tip man. But not easy drain it completely when I always need the phone :=)

I guys! I've got the same problem.
I think that it could depend on the "full battery popup FIX" that Paul introduced in his roms by the FR8.
So I would like to ask Paul if you can create a patch to remove that fix. Just to try it!
According to me, incorrect battery amount depend on a wrong voltage read error (offset introduced?) by the rom. :blink:
In my case, I have followed many times battery wype procedure without positive issue. The matter leaves only by flashing original roms.
I think that if Paul have written a wrong battery values range (to delete the battery full popup) that can be traduced in an incorrect battery status displays.

It was occurring before Paul introduced that change unfortunately...

After I wrote here, I registered a premium account to Paul's from modaco site and toke a custom fr12 rom without "battery full popup remove patch". Now I'm going to sleep and plugin the 2x to charge. Tomorrow I'll write here if is that the solution...

Perhaps, but you can not conclude it was introduced by MCR. You logic is wrong there.

Even without "battery full popup fix" it doesn't work good...
Battery level, when unpluged, stay at 100% for 2 minutes afterwards drop down fast until 85% then drain normally...

I'm getting huge battery display problems no matter what I do.
When I took it off the charger this morning, it said I had 100%... thats fair enough. However it stayed at 100% all day, so to "refresh" it this evening I restarted the phone, and low and behold it now says I have 27% left. But again, it's just sticking at that value, even with me now plugging the phone into the wall to charge. It simply says "Charging (27%)" and won't budge, likely until I restart the phone again.
Sometimes it works fine, it seemed to be doing ok last night before I put it on the charger. Any tips/suggestions? Is this something likely to be fixed when the Gingerbread update rolls around?
This is my first real smartphone, and am fairly annoyed as its giving me a fair few problems that I've not had from other electronic devices.

As I stated in another thread, I had the same issue while on MoDaCo Fr12. However, after reverting back to stock, the battery percentage is spot-on and I'm getting up to 48 hours use out of it.
Draw your own conclusions.

That sounds super, but I'm still on stock too. About the only things of note I've done are root and switching to Launcher Pro. Oh, and Clockwork Mod of course. Perhaps a complete reboot is needed, we'll see how it goes.
Saying that - since charging, my phone has been at 90% all evening, until right this moment when it changed to 89%. It's less than I'd expect on this type of phone for 3-4 hours use (or lack thereof, I've barely touched it), but it's a start eh?

Welcome to the world of smartphones my friend. I've had various handsets over the last 4 years from iphone to android and a day and a half out of the battery is about average......at best. ;-)
Sent from my LG-P990 using XDA App

Just to clarify, what I meant in my previous post was that I was expecting to battery to drop a lot more than it did. The fact that it only went down 1% in several hours of use prompted me to think that the battery value was messed up.
As it is, I've not charged my phone in the 36 hours since, and it tells me I have 73% battery left. Perhaps it is performing extremely well after all? If that's the case then I'm more than happy with it, but being the pessimist I'm still expecting the phone to turn off sometime with the battery reporting incorrect values.

rogers 2.3 updated noob needs help

I was too excited and upgraded to 2.3 GB with my battery not at 100% (it says make sure your battery is at 100%)
Now when my phone is charging i will say it has charged to 100% but when i unplug the charger it will drop to as low as 90%.
I have tried bump charging and bump draining the battery with no success.
What would be the best thing to do?
Agin, I am a noob so if you could list in steps that would be great.

Charge 100%. Turn off the phone and charge till 100%. Repeat that a few times then boot in cwm and delete battery indo (its in advance). That should recalibrate your battery.

Hey I was having the same problem, everytime I charged my phone to 100% and when I unpluged it the percentage drop to 96%. I tried battery calibration and it didn't work, but in the end all I did was to turn on wifi and set the screen brightness to max and screen timeout to 10 mins, plug the phone back and guess what this time the phone was charging to the real 100%. I guess it's a battery bug or something. But make sure to not let the screen goes off because when it does, it's going to give you a fake "Battery Full" notification.

Thanks. I have been trying the bump charges with no luck. I guess i will have to read up on CWM before i try what you mentioned.
So i think i need to root my phone first? then use clockworkmod as an app to manage the phone?
Thanks

So you have to do this everytime you charge your phone?

You will need a kernel with cwm. Or Root and use terminal emulator and type "su" enter (it will ask for super user) then type "rm /data/system/batterystats.bin" enter. To confirm you deleted it write the same thing again If it says such file doesn't exist then you did it right.

Two days in a row? damn. I get 12 hours max. I'm cool with 12 hours but this damn charging prob is so annoying. This morning i unplugged it and it dropped all the way to 90%
I wonder if the root of my problem is because my phone wasnt charged to 100 when i did the upgrade over kies.
Anyhow thanks and im gonna try the screen left on for 10 minutes when i charge again in the morning.

They tell you to charge to 100 just to make absolutely sure your battery doesn't die during the update and they have to replace a brick, it does not affect anything. I flash my phone from as low as 25%.
when you say it droped all the way to 90, and someone else said 96, it is due to the way lithium ion batteries are charged: they are charged to full, then it stops to prevent damage from overcharging, let's it drop and starts charging again st what is supposed to be 95 or so...

well first off cliff it is NOT because you didnt flash at 100%. you dont have to.it is just recomended so you dont run out of power while in the middle of a flash. the other day i flashed 4 roms and my nandroid backup and a stock rom.
how many times do you think my battery was at 100?
none.
its a bug. its also a bug that was seen in the leaked att 2.3.3 i think from what i remember.
ive also heard of touchwiz force closing.
i think we may see another rogers update.

I remember flashing a rom where i DID experience this. unplug > drop! not the usual drain to 95% and back up charge cycle.
but i havent flashed the rogers update yet.! lol of all people

Interesting. Thanks.
The way Rogers updates I should expect to live with this battery bug for the next while.
Thank you to Studacris.

2.3.3 has the Android OS bug. Where Android OS will use up something crazy in battery use. If it gets passed 10% reboot your phone.

unplugged it today and it was at 97%. Better but still bugging me.
If I do a data reset does it reset the battery bin file? Unrooted phone reset i'm talking about.
Thanks

Like I said Anywhere from 100 to 95 when unplugged is NORMAL and always has been...
The bug TRusello mentioned is sometimes on gingerbread when it drains to 95 it doesn't start charging again so when you unplug you get a significant drop (way more than 5%) but that is really really random and not everyone gets it and those who do don't get it every time. I've had it like 5 times total, mostly dropping to high 80's but once all the way to 35.
Again what you are seeing when it drops to 95% is normal, Idk how you haven't noticed that before?

Thanks again.
When i was on 2.2 froyo the most it ever dropped was to 98% and 99% but even then that probably happened like 5 times total for the 4 months i used froyo. Then as soon as i updated to 2.3.3 like 4 days ago it does this all the time (rogers was like the last carrier to update to 2.3) The time it dropped as low as 90% was a let down but i guess i'll get used to it.

Lol no Rogers isn't the last carrier to update. At&t still hasn't we have just between using leaked firmwares from Samsung, there has been no official release for the I897.

Even with this percieved percentage drop i still think the phone is lasting longer on a single charge then it did back on froyo.

Battery virtually dropping, hardware or software problem?

Hello,
for months it has been happening that when the battery usually reaches 25% (but not always sometimes even 40ish) the battery indicator drops to 19% and it could either remain stuck at that value until the charge actually drops below 19% and continue the usual drop or it will rapidly drop to lower values in big steps like (19->10->4) in minutes to finally actually automatically power off. The strange thing is that it's all fake! When I power the phone again the % will go back to where it should be before this virtual drop happened and continue its usual drop, it always worked until today when for the first time it continued the "game" non-stop until the battery ended the actual charge (for hours)! You have to consider that i was in a place in the mountains where the gsm coverage was very low/non existent so it could be connected. But it got me worried because it couldn't control it!
Apart from a solution I'm asking also what the reason could be. It could seem like a battery problem but why would the phone actually recognize the actual charge after it powers off and I restart it ? Seems like a software problem (battery driver maybe?). But I wouldn't exclude that it could be the battery maybe when the charge gets low the voltage drops dramatically under stress to a point where the phone thinks its almost empty.
I'm using cm7.2 kang 119 with standard kernel.

Have you tried wiping the battery stats..?

So you say it's done that for a while... obviously it's not possible to pinpoint an app. I guess then you have some funky cruft buildup (say, a lot of rom flashes and some settings getting squiffy) or your battery's dying. I know for sure that the rather excellent Battery Widget Reborn can give a health check on the battery as part of the widget (although I dunno if it's GB compatible). The second solution may be to try a clean wipe. It's drastic, yes, but can clean up any lingering problems if you've been updating for a long time without the occasional wipe. If you haven't...then I dunno.

The thing is it doesn't happen at every single charge! That's confusing! Maybe I'll try to update to #135 and install symbiosis kernel and see.

I'm not trying to be rude. It's just that battery stats are reset after every reboot, so wiping them does nothing. It's also easier to be blunt to get a message across.

Hello,
for months it has been happening that when the battery usually reaches 25% (but not always sometimes even 40ish) the battery indicator drops to 19% and it could either remain stuck at that value until the charge actually drops below 19% and continue the usual drop or it will rapidly drop to lower values in big steps like (19->10->4) in minutes to finally actually automatically power off. The strange thing is that it's all fake! When I power the phone again the % will go back to where it should be before this virtual drop happened and continue its usual drop, it always worked until today when for the first time it continued the "game" non-stop until the battery ended the actual charge (for hours)! You have to consider that i was in a place in the mountains where the gsm coverage was very low/non existent so it could be connected. But it got me worried because it couldn't control it!
Apart from a solution I'm asking also what the reason could be. It could seem like a battery problem but why would the phone actually recognize the actual charge after it powers off and I restart it ? Seems like a software problem (battery driver maybe?). But I wouldn't exclude that it could be the battery maybe when the charge gets low the voltage drops dramatically under stress to a point where the phone thinks its almost empty.
I'm using cm7.2 kang 119 with standard kernel.

by "sale" you meant "same"?

I have similar problems...
Mine force closes 1 out of 7 charges at a random percentage...today it was at 53%...it shows cc% but in reality the battery is drained out...I am not sure what is the problem...this showed up after I inhaled wiui 2.5.25, other than that I have minor issues with this rom...I really like it...only if I could make the radio work...

Bb=725 ril=0218(10b) the kernel is the latest OC kernel from temasek (any suggestions there, is there a better one for wiui/miui roms?).
I'll do a battery wipe after a full charge and see what happens next...

Please don't post questions in the General section
