I was playing TripleTown a very addicting game once you figure out exactly what you're suppose to do and my phone went completly un-responsive (couldn't even turn off the screen) so I had to wait then my screen shuts off me thinking the screen finally timed out but it had shut down then finally rebooted and I see my battery level went from 70% to 40% (as indicated in the picture) anybody know why this could of happened?
Oh, this is on GV 2.0

Mine did this the other day when it froze after a phone call. Mine dropped from about 65% to 4%. I rebooted it and it jumped back up.

Sadly, mine didn't go back to normal once I rebooted thankfully I didn't need my phone for anything important.
Hmm... Not sure then. Are you on GV or updated to ZV8?

GV tempted to go to ZV8 but not sure if I should take the time and steps to update to ZV8 and re-root and re-add CWM
Loooks like this is happening to everyone recently all at once. Its creating problems...
I had the same issue while surfing the web last week. Not sure why it happened.
I had this happen earlier today. An in progress call froze, phone said battery was dead. I power cycled and had 68% remaining. Anyone know what is causing this?
I have also been having this problem. For me it showed up along with many other bugs in the ZV8 update. I had never had the problem before then.
EDIT:
I forgot to mention that the issue seems to have subsided after a factory reset. I haven't spent much time on the phone post-reset, but since I haven't seen the issue yet, it seems to have improved. I wouldn't recommend that kind of hassle to anyone unless it became a huge problem for them.

Hello all.
I bought a Nexus One in at the beginning of the year. It's not rooted and I've had no problems from it till this month. I can not say the timing is exactly this, but it seems the battery issues started just after the FRG83D upgrade. I am accustomed to using my phone for most of the day before it needs to be charged. 12 hours or more with moderate use. Since around the FRG83D update my battery is about dead in around 4 or 5 hours. I haven't changed any settings or gotten any new apps or anything for quite some time.
For example, Friday night I charged my phone to 100% and then unplugged it (to plug in my girlfriends phone) and went to bed (about midnight). At 5:15am my alarm went off, i glanced at my phone and found the batter was at 10%!! the phone had been sitting there doing nothing all night with the screen off. I checked the battery use screen and it showed cell standby and AKMD taking up all the battery (55% and 35% respectively). I should mention that I have full signal where I am and have never had an issue. I cut off the screen rotate in the settings just in case that was part of it (AKMD being the gsensor i believe).
At next full charge that day i noticed the same problem, after being at 100% my battery was down to 10% after about 5 hours, almost the entire time I didn't use the phone. This time "display" was the largest percent by far (followed by cell standby), but clicking it showed only 15 minutes of use time for the display as I had purposefully not messed with the phone much.
Last night I had to be out and a bout so I decided to test things again. Charged full and cut airplane mode on. about 4 hours later my phone was down to 20ish percent, the only use of the phone being me looking at the charge level a couple times through the night.
I installed "spare parts" app and it shows my battery as being in good health and such but who knows how reliable that is.
Anyone else having similar issues? Any suggested remediation measures? I'm considering flashing the phone and reinstalling apps and such but would rather avoid that having never done that before and not having a desire to deal with setting everything back the way I have it.
Don't know if it matters but I run LauncherPRO and I do use the friends widget but it's never seemed to really cause battery issues before. I also run the news/weather widget, but again, no previous problems.
Any help would be great
Thanks!
In the spare parts app check partial wake usage. See if any apps are not letting your phone sleep.
nothing stands out other than UID 10073 which is handcent. currently my phone is charging but I'll pop it off the charger soon and watch the battery drop time again. I should note that inbetween all the tests so far i've rebooted the device so hanging apps of any kind should be killed off...
What ROM are you using?
Are you using Extended Controls? There is an issue with that and FRG83D. Uninstall it until the dev sorts it out.
yeah i am using extended controls. i'll take it off and see what happens.
Me too
I Have exactly the same issue, also have extended controls. Uninstalled and waiting to see if that works.
Cheers for the suggestion.
That did the trick! Loss like extended controls was the problem. A shame as i really like that app. Will hope they update and fix soon. Thanks!

Extended controls updated!
Yup, uninstalling fixed it for me too. Haven't seen the update though. I remember seeing an update yesterday, but I had this issue with that update so that did not fix it for me. Hope they update it again soon

I think it was updated again today. Now v5.03, and it seems to work properly.
So nobody saw Extended Controls showing up in Spare Parts, System Panel or other such programs?
Hi,
I have now had 2 occasions where my LG OX2 were automatically shut!!
I took it of the charger this morning, screen brightened, all normal. After 5 min. when I needed it, the phone was off. Later I had one more like this. Got to work and after some hours it was off when I needed it! I really don't get it. Battery was full.
I am on 2.2.2, rootet.
Has anyone had same experince??
I had that issue aswell.
Had that aswell yesterday morning, had to take the batteri out and put it back in, to get it back on
Same here.
Hi guys. Thanks for your answers. This is indeed very strange. This could be something that I will not accept for a smartphone this price. I will contact LG.
Are yours also rootet and have you removed anything?
Cheers.
Rooted. Not removed anything at all.
You mentioned that you have rooted the phone, did you freeze any applications?
Same here.
Only happened once and it was plugged into a charger (and would have been at 100%).
Battery pull was the only thing that worked.
I'll add this thread to the bugs thread.
Have not happend to me yet. I have used it for 1 day now. And 3 charges. No problems.
Rooted and deleted some apps.

So it seems to happens just on the rooted phones. Maybe the root its not stable yet?
No, i have not yet roted and i had the same problem yesterday. Nothing so far today though.
Optimus S ... same problem!
It seems like Optimus S have the same problem

Mine is not rooted, I had around 54% battery when I left work. Phone rebooted two times during the 15min walk home, once during a call and once when all I was doing was swiping around the homescreens... :/
My o2x rebooted once today, with 50% battery left.. Edit: Mine is also rooted and I have frozen the car home app.
This is very distressing. Being that this problem affects the 2x, rooted or not, then it is def. a hardware issue. Possibly solely a battery issue, or the design to which where the battery is housed (connectors), or simply power hit/miss circuitry design. My advice is, if it occurs enough not to annoy you (meaning, you don't want to deal w/ a return/exchange & don't mind the re-booting) then keep it. I believe that no software patch can fix this & for such an expensive device, I would return it for a fresh unit.

I did withnis this twice yesterday.
The phone doesn't shut down. It is a huge lag.
It happend the 3th time. I didn't pull out the battery, after 20sec that I pressed the power button for the screen to light up, the screen showed.
So it is lagg.
Not rooted. And to make it clear i'm talking about the phone screen not turning on, so you have to pull out battery and power it on again. No reboot.
What?! 20s lag? I was looking forward for quick device since I switch my Rhodium for LGO2X. I hope that this would be fixed soon by LG...
How odd. I haven't experienced this at all, and i've rooted mine and removed apps like F-Secure from my phone (By renaming them, don't worry.)
I guess a good way to find out if it's lag is to see if adb is still working.
Had it yesterday myself, once during charging. Then the powerbutton did work. Hour later I had to pull the battery. Wanted to advanced but forgot to leave USB debugging on. Had it so far only with my replaced unit. The first few days with the original unit didn't show signs of this...
Have to say my first unit wasn't rooted until the day they swapped it. The one I have now has been rooted since day one.

So earlier today my phone went from 90% to 15% charge instantly. I went to the Verizon store to see about a battery, obvious possible issue. They wanted to reset my phone to factory default but being rooted and on a custom rom, this would not work. Made some excuse about not loosing all my data, grabbed the phone and back to the office.
Imaged the system back to LG stock with root and removed CWM and all the sudden everything works fine. Its current at 65% charge. Before it would not charge over 15%.
Just thought I would share. Anyone else have an issue like this? It was completely random. Phone has been fine on revolt 1.0 for since it released, before that decrapped 1.0. odd that switching back made it work. The guy at verizon said that factory resets will often fix this issue...
H.
I had something like that happen, but my phone was running hot as well. It happened following a spontaneous reboot, the battery never able to charge as fast as it was discharging . I didn't get as far as you to test stock again for other reasons. Here was my thread as I tried to figure it out. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1216468
Well it is working fine now however I forgot to disable updating and it updated last night and I lost root...

off and on. I am an IT guy so I am in and out of my office.
Welp it has happened again...
I am rooted on decrap 1.0 with CWM. Today it has run completely dead in under 5 hours with no usage. I am trying to charge it enough to get in so I can remove CWM before I take it to Verizon as the first thing they will want to do is factory reset it, only need 5 min so I can run revotoolkit.
This is the suck. While I like the phone I am also really starting to regret this phone.
Oddly enough it is charging normally. This battery sudden drain is weird.
I understand your frustration.....mine behaves that way occasionally too. Plus the spontaneous reboots are becoming more frequent as well
[I'm Revolting -- are you? Beamed directly into your brain by Revolt 1.3]
Diddo last week. So Squigs, suggested a data wipe. So I did it and flashed revolt. Well setting up the LG/Verizon stuff was a no go, so I went homeless. I did my initial set up, and then pushed the Revolt. I have been running golden now. I just wonder if there is a way to run 2 roms at the same time, or a double rom. Because my battery life was 4 hours before I did a system wipe, this info was via my battery widget, but when I wiped everything, I have 15 hours when I start my day. I had calibrated my battery prior to all of this as well.
That is the odd part about it, it works fine for a week or so then bam, the battery goes wonky... Then returns to normal, it seems after a battery pull.
That's no good. Sorry to hear it happened again. Running Decrap 1.1 and I haven't had it happen again yet *knock on wood*
I need to find what is eating up the resources. The phone says the android OS is eating over 64% of the battery and the phone is not being used.
Android OS on my phone generally uses close to 80 or 90% on my phone. With that I still got 12 hours yesterday on the stock battery before I was at 3% battery and plugged in. Try a data reset if you already haven't and if that doesn't work I would say you need either a new phone or battery.
My phone has done this multiple times. Once in a while ill get a text. It'll vibrate for 2 minutes with the screen off. Then reboot with 40% less battery

So I ran it dead, charged to 100% and while still on charge ran a battery calibration app (as the app instructed) and I am back again getting 20+ hours on really light usage, 6 - 8 on moderate usage. This is weird. I have 2 upgrades on my other lines, I am really thinking about getting a bionic, reports are it gets exceptional battery life and then selling the revo.
Sigh... while not eating as bad it is still ripping through. I got 1 good day and now it is back. It has been off charger for just over and hour, no usage, and it is down 6% already. Frustrating.
recently experienced the same issue. had a random 2-3 day spurt where the battery was dead by noon.....then all of a sudden, it returned to normal. never did figure out why.
recently received a new phone (but same battery)....installed Home-Less....currently experiencing much better battery life.
from previous posts, sounds like you bought thru verizon......if not, and you bought thru best buy.....i think they will order you a new battery pretty much no questions asked.
After I got my replacement phone about a week ago, I downgraded, rooted, ran homeless battery was doing ok....well, just yesterday my battery when to crap again...just an hour and down to 70....i really wish I could figure out wtf...

I have reverted to stock rom with root. I am using Titanium Backup to freeze the bloatware to see if it has something to do with the modified ROMs. Crossing my fingers.
from my experience, the custom ROM actually helped my battery issues. my problems were encountered when i was un-rooted. what kills my battery the most is the fact that i work on the fringe of both 3g and 4g....causing the phone to constantly cycle between 3g/4g/1x. when i'm on straight 4g, i can last all day without a problem.
i'd be interested in hearing your results.
While at work today I had my phone on the charger as the battery was pretty much dead this morning.. towards the end of my shift I was doing some browsing using Opera and over 4G when I noticed the phone started getting hot. About a minute later I Got a pop up message saying the temp sensor has reached max temp and said I should pull the battery.. So I did... I waited for the Revo and battery to cool down and I put the battery back in and booted up... As soon as I could I launched my battery widget and the battery charge state graph showed that the battery had TANKED 47% instantly while being plugged in! The phone started getting hot again so I pulled the battery and decided to check into it again when I got home.
Now im home, and I had put the battery back in the phone and without even booting the Revo, the whole phone gets hot! Knowing something must be going on here I booted the phone anyways and checked my battery widget again and this time its reporting 3%!!
Anyone have a clue whats going on here? Phone or Battery?
Same thing happened to my sisters Droid 2 ... her fix ... iPhone 4s

Known issue friend. Make sure you are running stock OS, no CWM, and take it to Verizon. They will reset it to factory default, because that fixes everything in their book, and it will for a short time till it happens again.
Back up your data because they are gonna wipe that bad boy clean. They told me ALL DATA WILL BE LOST, that's when I grabbed my phone and ran. I reset it to factory on my on and had no more issues except now it just shuts off on its own occasionally. It happens with all roms so it's a phone issue.
I am with Android Power... Except, get a nexus prime not shatter glass iPhone 4s.
ok cool.... Thanks Hax. Where can I read up on the known issue? Nevermind I found everything i needed... on a side note I took the phone into verizon on my lunch break and they confirmed the battery was toast.... so they gave me a brand new one. By the time I got back to work the new battery was toast as well! So I guess something got cooked in the phone. i'll be going back to the store after work to exchange the phone. Im not going to be able to remove CWM or go back to stock since it wont boot.... but they shouldnt care either since they wont be able to boot it as well.
guys... can someone tell me what is wrong with this picture???
i've got an issue that has been niggling me for the past few weeks now but i couldn't find the time to look into it until last night.
i remember unplugging my note last night at about midnight and battery is at 100% and this morning when i woke up at 9am i saw that it is only at 73%.. what the???
what prevents the phone from going into deep sleep? i only started noticing this after i rooted the phone (am on stock GB) and installed TB.
prior to root i usually lose about 4-7% only overnight which i thought was quite great.. i can't remember if i changed any settings at all that maybe causing/preventing the phone to go into deep sleep...
can anyone tell me how to fix this??

Facebook.......Facebook app has been coded such a way that cpu is still awake so that it could communicate to the server all time and recieve notification.Had the same problem.Removing the app fixed it for me.
do i need to totally remove the app or just logging out would do??
i've had facebook eversince and prior to my root i only lose less than 10% overnight...
i'll try it out and let you know...

thanks guys... i tried uninstalling facebook and nothing changed... i was still losing about 25% in 6hrs and the note still doesnt go to deep sleep...
however i turned off the background data and walah!! the phone now goes to deep sleep.. even with facebook..
i looked at the note this morning and i lost 8% overnight (about 8hrs) and cpu spy now shows the beast has finally went to deep sleep...
i'm one happy camper!!!
