Hello,
I've been passing for a strange issue with my GNote's battery. After I updated to ICS , I don't know if it is the reason of the problem, my battery doesn't complete the charge.
I tryed to charge to 100% with the phone turned off but immediately after it turned on the battery's indicator down to 50%. With the phone turned on, the battery seems that's not charging. Either with the phone turned on or off the process of charging is taking tooo long to complete.
Any help would be great.
Thanks!
This may not be ROM or kernel problem. may the battery become defective or hardware problem.

I will try to replace the battery with a new one and see what happens.

Anyone have the problem that the battery status is incorrect? Sometimes within the hour of fully charing my device the screen starts to flicker and then device turns it self off.
When I restart and charge it the battery bar shows almost emtpy and goes to 100% after ten minutes in only one step.
I am using Sakajati's latest ROM. Only modification I did was replace IE with the previous version.
1. Flash a stock ROM see if still problem.
2. Try a different battery see if still problem.
Both will test hardware or ROM related.
Your battery is most likely dead.
yeah I agree your battery is most likely dead. I had the same problem with my first tilt. It died out cos I accidentally overcharged it a few times.

how did you overcahrge your tilt? i would like to avoid doing that.

You can't, the phone would just stop charging it.

i know the phone is smarter than that, but i figured he used an off brand charger or something like that, just wanted to make sure.
If you use too hot of a charger it can hurt the battery a little bit....
I know that a common cause of this problem beyond the battery is that the phone's calibration to read the battery level gets thrown off. To reset the calibration, turn the phone off, do a battery pull, wait a good 30 seconds, put it back in, then without turning the device back on, put it on the charger and let it chill for a couple hours. When all is said and done, you should have a fully charged battery and a recalibrated Kaiser.
I would not be to quick to blame the battery here but yes it could be that What SPL do you have? If the device acts dodgy whit screen freeze it could be that. I would try some other whit recomended rom and give it a spin before changing battery (ofc. short version is to borrow a fresh one to eliminate).
I'm having major battery issues with my X1.
it's always auto shut down all of the sudden although my battery was 70%
Then when I turn my phone back on.. it became low battery (less than or just 10%)
Is this related to my battery? or the phone itself?
Heard a friend having the same problema with a HTC after installing a new ROM.
Maybe it's soft related.
that problem WILL persist even if I changed so many roms? I just don't understand why.. Need to fix this ASAP.. it annoys me by running out of battery everytime =.="
I suggest you flash back your stock rom to exclude a software issue. If the problem persists I would say you have got a defective battery.
I suggest it's the battery. Had similar problem with aftermarket battery off eBay. Used it for 2 weeks, then it suddenly shut off and no sign of life whatsoever from my X, got the charger plugged in - nothing, no side lights, no startup. Flicked another battery in to make sure my X is functioning. Then got the battery that caused problem back in to see what's happening. Well, it was at 35%, started charging again and behaved like nothing happened.

yeah that's what happened to my phone..
Ahh... Guess I really need to change my battery already.. Thanks for the info. Helped a lot..
Hi,
My battery life/indicator has been behaving very strangely since yesterday, so I'm wondering if the battery is dying. I know about battery calibration, and attempting it hasn't solved anything. I haven't flashed any firmware recently.
When I plug in the charger while on, it almost immediately tells me it's 100% charged, but the number displayed will still be something low, like 50ish. When I unplug it, the number stays. It drops extremely quickly, to around 1-2%, then 0% and turns itself off. After turning it on again, it may rise to 10%, but drop again to 0% shortly thereafter. After a couple of times of turning it back on, it will refuse to turn on. Charging only seems to work when phone is off, but even then the charge won't last much more than a couple of hours of idling - no calls, no web, nothing.
I've tried charging to full while phone is off (drained), and removing battery stats via cwm before booting up. Doesn't help.
Is my battery faulty? It's a very sudden problem, and my battery has been lasting me for days before this happened
So, I got a new battery. The problem persists. I've tried a factory reset/wiping battery stats, but it's still that way. Could this be a hardware problem somehow?
Any advice is greatly appreciated!!
Which fimware are you on? In your case I'd go back to a stock firmware from samfirmware.com and test once again. If the problem persits, you likely have a hardware issue and I'd have it swapped for a new phone whilst within warranty.

I'm using tweaky rom, JVS. I'm not too sure what the local firmware is (Singapore), the one I had before I switched to custom was 2.1, and I don't feel too safe flashing bootloaders when the phone is prone to turning off...

yeah, you are absolutely right. Have you tried betterbatterystats? ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809 ) It will show you wakelocks when your phone should be idling.
Did it help ?
Mate, out of curiosity I was wondering if your issue got resolved.
Also, you should check what is draining off your battery.
I tried reading elsewhere and found "Battery Monitor Widget" could be useful for you to identify this.
Nope, still same problem. It's not a wakelock issue, because the battery dies /so/ fast. I can literally charge it to 100%, unplug the charger, and in 30 seconds it says 0% and turns itself off. The phone itself isn't running hot or anything, and seems to be just idling. [Edit: To clarify, it also charges to 100% in about 10 minutes or so. I'm guessing that for some reason the phone thinks the battery is 'full' and stops charging, leading to the quick drop. I've no idea what could cause this though]
I'm hoping that maybe it's a software issue now since the new battery isn't working either (the battery is probably a fake since i got it for cheap, but even then it should last at least a few hours before draining), and that the phone is confused with battery voltage levels or something when I put the new one in.
Anyway, I flashed JVU stock, didn't even root, and will be charging the new battery overnight while phone is off. It says 100%, but gonna leave it on charger anyway. Hopefully if I wake up tomorrow it'll be working :/
If that doesn't work, will be flashing DXJV9 (My original firmware was dxj4), and hope that it's the official one here. Then bring it to a service center and act dumb and hope they can fix it i guess...
Service center replaced motherboard. There goes a hundred bucks :/
Hello, I have a problem with my Galaxy S Advance; I reinstall the system with Pure Vanilla ROM (I had JellyMod before) and now I have getting problems with battery.
When I charge the phone when it is awake, it won't charge, the only way to charge it is to turn the phone off so it begin to charge, and then I'm able to turn on the phone with the cable plugged in. But when I unplug it when the charge is over, the icon on the phone is stuck to 100%, it only shows the real battery amount left when I restart it.
Besides, now my battery drains really fast, during the night, it can drains to 40 to 0% in 8 hours.
Does someone knows what the problem is?
Try battery caliberation
I will sugest another rom like harsh jelly with cocore.

You could try to take your battery out to see if something is wrong
Or, after all the options above didn't help to solve the problem, then you should consider changing your battery
I tried battery calibration, but no results. And I already took the battery out, but nothing more happens.
But I noticed that with Better Battery Stats there's a process that is always awake in the kernel wakelock section, "ab8500_charger_attached_lock". Could this be the problem?
No one knows if I can delete the "ab8500_charger_attached_lock", and if there is a way?
Well, I found the solution, if anybody has this problem; the usb connecter was the cause: the metallic part in the center seemed close to one other and even when the phone wasn't charging, it made it think like it was. So I just took a knife and straightened it up and now everything is back to normal.

You are my Savior!!for a week my phone has been broken,i wanted to repair at repair shop
but i saw your method and it works!!
Just this afternoon my phone started behaving abnormally, when I plugged it in to charge it showed Charging (AC). I kept as it is without data connection or wifi for a hour and found that though the phone is charging (even with indications on battery icon( the actual battery percentage was decreasing (From 20% to 15%). Is this kernel problem as I have King's Kernel?? Flashing stock kernel will fix it???

You had problem with data connection before? Or it was someone else?
Two things come to my mind:
1. USB connector on your phone - go to service center to fix it.
2. Battery is faulty.

If you are out of warranty then I think it will cost. Do you have data connection when you connect it to PC? If yes, then maybe battery is broken.
May not be a bettery problem

It also may be your kernel or your rom problem
Because i too used to face the same problem but after flashing to some different rom the problem seemed to be solved
you can also test your battery by different apps available
Hit the THANKS button if this helps you
When I was sami os i was also facing the same problem, people suggested me to change my battery but i changed the rom and kernel and it worked so firstly
1) I would prefer you to change your rom and kernel
If this also doesnt work then I would prefer you to change your battery!!
