Battery PROBLEM ! - XPERIA X8 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

So I tried installing some scripts on my phone, and managed to brick my phone so I flashed it back to default kernel and again installed gingerdx on my phone ... I charged it whole night ... when I woke up ...battery 100% ... I restarted my phone .... battery 40% ... DAFUQ ?! ... in proccess of restarting I cleared my battery stats ... now I am trying to use all the battery till 0% ... then recharge it to 100% and clear it again ...
But this never happened to me ... actually with gingerdx I had pretty great battery life ...
U got any idea what is going on?

I think u must do a wipe battery stats. If it aren't helped, post here.

Try using a different battery, just to make sure it's not your battery that's giving you problems.

I am calibrating my battery right now ... I think it's just a problem with displaying right percentage because I can angry birds for like 2 hours with 70% battery .... I will see after charging my phone next 3 hours.... I odexed my x8 ...

Try wipe battery stats,if it doesn't help try to remove unnecessary apps,try to use some task killers(I don't suggest it though),try to change some settings.if battery drain its a known bug of the rom,wait for an update and/or meanwhile try another rom
If nothing helps,there may be problem with your battery,or there isn't any actual battery drain and you just expect too much from your phone

And in your case,
Dont judge the battery after using for two minutes...there might be no problem.but after sometime you notice there is a problem try to wipe battery stats

well I would just like .. you know, to have normal battery ... charge- 100% ... and by using the phone it will go: 100%-99%-98%-97% etc...
But right now it's like ... charging-100%, restart- 80% - 2 mins use - 65% ... It's kinda annoying ...

It's pretty ok right now guys .. I let it charge yesterday for maybe 5 hours, by one reboot it went to 98%..... but it's ok ... right now ... after about 12 hours of not charging and 30 min use, 2 min talk, battery is at 89% ...

[Q] Maybe Noob Battery Question?

I'm on the Fasty 2.3 rom and I just cant seem to go more then 12 hours on battery life even on light useage. The only thing I keep on is my 3g service, which is all the time. I've also tried using battery calibrationaters (lol) and none of them seem to calibrate my captivate.. I think. What's a good app to monitor my battery and also an app to help me calibrate my battery in case I'm doing it wrong somehow?
I calibrate by charging to 100% and then rebooting my phone but my phone seems to drain at the same speed no matter what I do. I installed Fasty from stock also.

Remove the battery and put it back say about after 15/20 mins, This has helped some members to solve this issue. Just give it a try.

Lol, I've been reading and I guess there's a bug with the Android OS or something and it'll run high if your phone is on for a long time. The fix is just to restart.

That did it! I charged my phone up to 100% then i calibrated it. Shut off my phone, took that battery out, grabbed a plate of food and decided to watch Despicable Me, finished my meal and then put the battery back and now my phone is at 67% after 18 hours!
Great, Thats amazing 67 after 18 good going mate.

Battery is charging while discharging

I was transferring some files from my pc to my phone just now. After i done and unplugged my usb from the phone,my battery was 81%. then after some time using it,i realized that the battery wasnt dropping (happy, but weird)
Here is a screenshot of my battery usage,im uploading this using my phone.this is after i reboot my phone.u can see that the green line,indicating that my phone was supposed to be charging. The battery start to act normal after i reboot.
Can anyone tell me if this is normal n what might caused this? Coz if this is a good thing, i dont mind if it happen again

Hit Thanks if i helped..
Maybe wiping battery stats with CWM? Quite weird prob.

Happened to me last week.
Problem is that charging by USB is bad because its alot slower than by plug.
I was gaining power but loading it at the same time so in turn it only stayed on 47% all the time.
Weird

yeah...thats why i was wondering whether it is a good thing or a bad thing. if its a good thing, maybe our x8 can get "the ultimate battery".
it just need one recharge and it is good to go forever..

Yep!
One rule:
Never charge VIA USB! Its about 1% p/10mins
Always charge by plug! 9-10% p/10mins
MUCH BETTER!

Phone/Battery screwed up

Hi guys!!
My phone is seriously screwed up. I'll get to the story.
A couple of nights ago, I couldn't copy files to sd card both from the phone and the computer. So I took it out and tried to format it in Windows but failed. So then I tried to format in linux and succeeded :good:
Then I tried to copy files to it, eventhough it seemed like files were copied, when I tried to read it again after ejecting the card, it was empty No files were copied!!
My SD card had failed and so I removed the SD card and let the phone be. ROM was CK MIUI 2.4.6. I noticed that battery started to drain faster through the night; around 40% for 8 hours
I tried using various other ROMs, tried the battery friendly CM9 too - both elols and rcset's. Still no avail. :crying: :crying:
I think its a hardware error. Can I claim my warranty??

That's bad :crying:
Yeah try to claim the warranty and see what happens, good luck. And please don't change your phone.
My Experience with Service Center in Bangalore was good .. they gave me a replacement phone (Some cheap dual SIM phone) when i had issues with display and wanted to replace it .
Lead time given was 1 week as it had to be sent to some central location but they guy called me up within 3 days and asked me to come and collect my phone ..
So they treat the Mi 400 owners well as it was the costliest phone in there arsenal some time back .
@whyzee, any updates on the phone and battery backup?

no bro, not yet. The phone is still with me and I'm currently getting ~19 hr usage with only calls/msg.
I'm on Bumblebee and I'm getting nice backup, can you try it once (ya I know it still has ICV) but gives nice backup and each and every feature works (excl. FM, HDMI) or sharp Modded (.35) Fix1 which also gives nice backup, but the condition is that you need to stay on any of these 2 ROMs for few days and not flash any other ROMs immediately, I've seen that constantly flashing ROMs also reduces battery backup no matter on which ROM you are on (means you don't get good battery backup even if you are on battery friendly ROM), if you want you can try it as a last solution...

thanks for the tip paarkhi! I guess I too have been flashing too many ROMs recently. Right now, I'm on MIUIv4. I'm gonna try to hang onto this for a while. keeping my fingers crossed ...
ok, how is your experience with MIUI4

nice.... I havent really tested it yet - no GPS,data,wifi or anything. Just using it for calls and stuff and as I said, battery life is about 19h...
Hi Whyzee
First how old your battery is and did the service center guys replaced the battery?
Do one thing wipe everything, cache, delvik cache battery stats and revert to stock GB for sometime. then check the performance for your device and tell us
I'm on sharp mod fix 1 and getting better battery life (I think) currently testing it and update after a few days

Im on elol SOB ICS. This thing is kick ass battery saver. So smooth yet saves ton of battery. I've attached current stats. Been browsing wifi over an hour and battery still shows 100% I got 25 hours by charging up to 90 % yesterday. So I think that's what the secret was. When u flash a rom recharge it to 90% first time and then 100% the next time. Will report tomorrow

what rom youre using??
have u turn off your phone while charging? cz sometimes if u turn it on and charge it, just some power can get in your battery,
First charge your phone to full 100%.
Now go to CWM recovery->Advanced->Wipe battery stats..
This might help you..

He didn't say BUY a NEW battery. He said TRY an ALTERNATIVE battery.
How often does it switch off? If it's often then you could try leaving it in recovery mode to see if it does it there...

Recovery mode does not use much resources. So it will be hard to tell.

I have a 2 month old original battery in my note. I noticed screen flickering a week ago which is a sure sign the battery is past its prime.
Still, some questions:
Have you dropped this phone?
Are you still running stock android? root?
Did you overclock / undervolt anything?
How often is this happening?
Is the phone hot when this happens?
Ofcourse,I've dropped it many times.I think problem also because of that droppings only.Running on stock firmware.No overclock.Can't say how often....The phone won't be hot but may be sometimes I feel slight hotter.

I've flickering issues in my last battery.I know how it turns off when battery is damaged.so I can say it's not battery issues.I'm thinking of hardware problem only coz of so many droppings.Can you suggest me what could be damaged coz of falling on ground....and also can I try custom rom to get rid of this....???

There is no guarantee that a custom rom can help, but it is much easier than dealing with hardware issue. Definitely should try a custom rom 4.12 to see if it helps.

Custom rom also not helping.Today it switched off completely and not switching on even.sometimes it switches on after sometime but no luck this time.so please someone suggest me,what are my options now ?and What would I do now ?

Personally, my next step would be opening it up, remove all the dust(if any) and check all connections.
If that does not help, you have a problem.
If all fails, consider maybe overvolting and/or underclocking.?
