I had turned phone off when it was fully charged yesterday and put my Sim in Galaxy
SII and when I replaced back today and turned Nexus 4 on today, the battery was showing 73%. I can not believe it lost 27% in totally power off mode.
My phone is not rooted yet.

How long have you had your phone for? If you just got it recently, keep testing it like that for a few days. It could be just the battery sensor on the phone being new and all.
After I posted the first post, I was checking the battery in settings and it showed that my phone was on battery for over 22 hours. The weird thing is that I literally turned phone on from power off state and saw nexus boot animation came on and phone powering on.
I now think the phone actually do not power off in power off state.
Is something wrong with this phone? Or it is suppose to do that.?

I've found a bug where sometimes the phone will sometimes report the wrong level of battery when charging, but when you restart the phone it will go back to the right level. This might be what happened to you.

I plugged in my phone for 20 seconds and I went to check for email notifications and to my amazement it's fully charged.
This is now another possibility in battery issues. I know I'm using a faulty device (that's why I ordered a RMA) but this is kinda odd so I thought I'd share it with you guys.
Let's hope this instant charge sticks lol. I went from 7% to 100% in 20 seconds.

Had that also one or two times. If you leave it plugged in it goes back to the correct percentage after some minutes.
Likewise a minor software glitch that will get fixed soon, nothing to worry.

Good for example you need to go somewhere and you forget to charge it. Just plug it in for 20 sec and bam it's fully charged and problem solved.

This happens when you plug in the phone and the wall charger has no voltage, e.g. because you use a switch that is off. If you switch it on, the glitch occurs and the phone is instantly charged. Of course that's not really the case, though. Rebooting solves this most of the time.

The Galaxy Nexus had none of these issues. I just hope that Google fixes this soon.

this is a non-issue as it is charging fine when left. no disadvantages except when you really believe it is fully charged in a second.

Nope. It doesn't let me continue to charge until I restart the phone (for me at least).
My phone did this last night. I noticed it right away, so I just unplugged the cable and plugged it back in and bam it went back to charging its merry little heart out

I am also experiencing this issue with a Nexus 4 (few weeks old) running Andriod 4.2.2.
Anyone know if this issue is fixed in upcoming release?
Just happened on my Nexus with Nokia 1.2mAh charger and latest CM10.1 nightly, reboot solved it though

I think this is correct. I've had this happen 3 times in 6 months and it's only happened when I plug the phone into the charger right after plugging the charger into the wall.
I've since tried to leave the charger plugged in about 10-20 seconds before attaching the phone and it hasn't happened since (~3 months)

Happened to me one night but when i unplugged my phone in the morning, it went down to 40% :/ so evidently it didnt continue charging after glitching. Battery usage pane confirmed this.

I usually charge my phone during nights.. Sometimes on the morning my battery is down to 80%, it stopped charging at 100% and I assume didn't charge any longer and the phone was draining the battery, has anyone else the same problem?

I have my phone rooted and I am running cyanogenmod 10.1 on the device. It was running perfect untill today. I woke up and with in a few hours the battery was dead. The phone was gettting really hot during this time too. I plugged it in to a charger and the battery kept dropping. I was going to restore Stock root on it but I needed the battery to be alittle higher before I was going to do it, now the device will not turn back on. It is a Sprint HTC ONE. Any advise would help.
Leave it completely turned off, charge it for a day, when it comes back on go back to stock, completely wipe everything. If it still has the problem its defective and youre back on stock so you can return it.

Guys .. my Note is not powering up.
Did not install any ROM in the last 15 - 20 days... so surely not a brick.
Last running OS - CM 10 Nightlies .. If am not wrong a version in the first week of June ...
Did not update it after that..
Yesterday I was playing Ingress whole day while connecting my Not to a laptop using USB cable so as to keep it charged..
The battery percentage did go as low as 1% during the game but mobile was still on.
I did keep it for chargin a full night yesterday... Today morning was a surprise as the phone just does not switch on.
Some times is powers on and powers off in under 20 sex Even while it is connected to a power supply.
Tried to see if I can go into Download or Recover mode ... does not work that way too
Please help me out.. Tell me any way to revive my phone ...
At this point am unsure if it is the battery causing problems or the phone ...
The phone doesn't enter recovery as you have a critically low battery, try that battery in another phone & try another battery in your phone. Your phone is recognised on the laptop right?
No other phone where this battery can fit.
BTW... I tried my old battery in the phone.. Then the new battery in again and it started charging..
Thanks guys

This is why you should always get a charger for the battery, out of the phone.

Hello everyone. This is the third day I'm having the following issue: I turn off the phone at night with 50% battery, but when I wake up the smartphone doesn't boot, saying that there's no battery anymore.
Someone else had this issue?
Here it is a screenshot:

Its seems that your phone have some kind of wakelock. Download better battery stats and look.

I dont understand how can wakelock be active when the phone is off? That doesnt seem posible..

wakelock detector. download from play store. and of course next time 1st search then ask
Do you turn it off completely or just lock it? If you shut it down then its quite strange, if not use the search function as mentioned above.
Sent from my 4X HD via XDA Premium
read please. he turned his phone OFF completely. there are no wakelocks then xP
OP, it might be a faulty battery. try to get the battery out for a night, put it back in the morning and check the status
lol. its obvious that he just described it wrong. u cant switch off the phone and lose 50% battery. he means he turned off display. the phone was supposed to "deep sleep". if he had it really switched off and lose 50% battery then he wouldnt ask. he would already know that his battery is dead and would kiss it bye bye....
if you look at his battery diagram, it kinda shows it was turned off, then turned on and it was on very low battery level, so i think he described it right. lets wait for OP for further info on the issue ^^
I shut the smartphone off. I'll try to check if this problem comes back having removed the battery, as suggested.

Turn your phone off, take the battery off at night and check how much battery you lose when you put it back in, the next day.
I think its just a dead battery, look how fast his battery drained down, it can't be simply wakelocks.My phone doesn't lose that much battery even with heavy gaming.
Anyways, google how to reset battery stats it might help or I don't know.If that doesn't work just replace your battery.
I thought yesterday that this wasnt possible.. Tonight, this happened to me...:laugh:
I turned my phone off with 63% and in the morning I couldnt turn it on.. When I turned it off, the hardware buttons were on for a couple of seconds... So maybe the phone got stuck on some frequency and drained the battery.. Very strange... Will pull out the battery tonight to test some more.
OK i tried to remove the battery. Everything works fine. So the problem must be something related to the phone or android. I think it's the second one, since this bug happened to my friend as well, but not with this frequency.
Sent from my LG-P880 using XDA Premium 4 mobile app
It must be a problem with ROM, some bug that keeps the phone from shutting off. It must be stucked on some high frequency to drain so heavily!

Quite strange indeed.

On my first charge so we will see. Please post your battery life stats and pics.
Six and a half hours and it's almost at 50%. I had an iPhone before this phone, and if I used it half as much as I have been using my phone today, it would probably be at around 10-20%. I love the battery life. Screen has been on half brightness, WiFi/Bluetooth off, no battery saving mode on.

Here is what I have so far. Going to let it get to the power save mode before I charge again (IF that actually happens before I sleep), so I will post again then. This is mostly on LTE, btw, as I've been away from home most of the day.

That's good to hear. I've been using a One M8 practically in place of my 5s all day today and with battery saver on (only decreasing CPU speeds) but Wi-Fi off the entire time (just 4G LTE), I'm only down to 48% after being unplugged for 13.5 hours. Looking forward to what my GS5 will deliver.
Coming from the iPhone 5 (had the 5S, but got damaged so I switched back to the 5 during the waiting period) the battery on the GS5 is incredible. I'm just now doing a full charge cycle, so I'll report back later with some battery results, but I can already tell I will be very happy with this.
I just plugged my phone in so I wasn't able to take a screen cap. I was at 32% battery left with 16 hours on battery with about 4 hours and 2 minutes of screen on use. Most of the day was on LTE, but I did not turn off the wifi radio. All background data options were left on along with location services.
not great..barely got through the day with fairly heavy use. 4 hours screen on time.
Not doing so good. It is the first full charge so I will judge it after it has a day or two to settle in.
