Hi,
I let my xt890 update to 91.2.26001.xt890.Orange.En.gb on Friday, but now it is literally unusable. The battery will show 100 % one minute, 28 the next, then back up to 95, then 2 % then shut itself down. Turn it back on to 95 %......all this in a few minutes.
Ive hard reset it, cleared the cache, hard reset again and it is still doing this. Anyone got any ideas?

Battery now has a 2 minute life. Charges to 100 percent in 10 seconds and then dies in 2 minutes. It does this when charging whilst on or off. Phone had no probs before ota update. Grrrr. Anyone Any ideas?
I'm not experiencing this. Try resetting

reset countless times. basically i can switch the charger on and off now and every time i do this the phone shows a different value between 1% and 100% for battery. its bloody mental! gonna have a look at flashing 4.0 back on to it tomorrow unless anyone has a better idea?
If you're rooted, there's usually an option to clear battery stats in recovery. Worth giving this a go.
Hi, not sure if your problem is similar to one I had

Hi,
After updating to Gingerbread the battery use page in settings no longer resets the counter after charging.
The battery monitor I got installed however does reset and show correct values.
Anyone else got this?
Also, Muffin Knight (game app) is listed as using a lot of battery but this is not correct. It has not been run after the last reboot and is not running when I check.

Getting the same issue on mine.
I have to Reboot to clear the Usage info.
At the moment i'm just waiting for my ontract to come up for renewal so I can get rid of this cursed piece of Crap
Battery usage is all over the place. 1 day i will use 3% over 5 hours, another time it will use 20-30% in 2 hours
How LG could ever call this a Flagship phone I don't know
Checked battery-usage just now myself. And i too have this problem. Its not reset at all.. This bumps my problems after installing GB update to 4 issues!
I've also noticed when you reboot, the battery stats reset completely so my phone is now showing total usage on battery is 1m 34secs
where before it was showing 2hrs usage which was correct
The same happened to mee. But i think this is normal? since you could have your phone turned off for lets say 5 hours, and then the reported time would be wrong, so i guess its normal for the timer to reset aswell.
Im on the 4.1.2 samsung release and my phone ran down to 0% and turned off. The next day all sorts of strange things were happening on the phone. It was like pulling the plug on windows 95 (corruption). I then pulled the battery which caused a boot loop. I had to do a factory wipe to get it back.
Has any one else had this problem?
Cheers

Its possible I would say, Cause I have experienced similar things myself in the past, I think it depends on your current set up.
If your phone is processing lots of different things and then all of a sudden the power supply fails (i.e battery dies) then theres a chance that will cause data corruption..... which leads to FC's / Bootloops / Resets etc.
What I tend to do is, if I know my battery is going to die (and I cant get to a charger) I will just shut it down before it dies, to stop things like that ^^^ happening.
If the problem persist, it maybe time to replace your battery. Had a similar problem but I also had screen flickering problems
ok, I recently replaced my bionic due to a shattered screen. the one verizon sent me didn't come with a battery so I'm using the same old one. so when I rooted my phone on ics, a couple weeks later I noticed that my phone was taking awhile to recharge. with the battery hd app it said that from about ted percent it would take nearly 4 hours to charge! as opposed to the usual hour, hour an a half. then I updated to jelly bean an due to my internal storage becoming unmounted, I had to fxz an lost root altogether. so after getting my internal storage back an waiting what seemed like a month for a root exploit, my battery was back to charging normally, which was pretty sweet. so today I booted ubuntu an rooted my bionic using the samba exploit recreated by the master genius of moto exploits himself, all hail Dan! after playing around an getting back to my old setup I drained a full battery. I plugged in an yet again battery hd. is reporting a 4 hour charge time, plugged into ac! so my question is, does anyone know what could be causing this?! from what I know so far it seems that having root access is the cause. but I can't put the two together an understand how that is an I don't have the kinda time for a 4 hour wait on a charge....somebody help!
Try to delete the battery stats. Maybe the phone is traiting the battery like a 10000mah one and recharges it a while.
Let me know if it worked!
yea i tried that right off the bat. in recovery, with a battery calibration app, and manually. nothin helps
It could be one of two things: one, there could be a problem with your ROM's battery app, therefore displaying incorrect data. Another issue could be the battery itself, as these batteries degrade over time so it could have gone flat and no longer hold an efficient charge.

hopeully its just the rom. i'm installing safestrap right now so i can jump over to another one and see how the battery acts there, maybe help narrow it down. an now i'm thinking it probly is the rom as the battery holds a charge like it always has. it just charges super slow. if i use the wifi tether or download any big files such as a zip file for a rom, it actually drains the battery very slowly while plugged in to ac. around 1 percent every five or ten min, depending how much i have goin on at the time. i clearly remember when it started happening. i checked once and it showed a normal charge time between 1 an 2 hours. i fiddled around did some things, of which i now cant remember what i did (install apps for example) an ten minutes later it was in this state where it takes 4 hours to charge. i've tried deleting apps, calibrating the battery, hopefully it works normal on a different rom its turning out to be quite the inconvience. Thanks for you help and input!!

ok so I installed a different rom on the safe system using safe strap an I was still having issues. tried a different rom and same thing. I went back to the unsafe side and did a master reset on the stock rom and it seems to have fixed the problem. I'm curious to see what it is um doing that's causing it as this is the second time its happened. gonna pay close attention to the possibility of it happening again to hopefully pin point the origin.

If you tried various versions of different ROMs, and you're still experiencing the same issues, it's probably an issue with the hardware, so I would check the battery to make sure.
its back to normal now. But I'm still pretty curious as to how my stock rom was causing the problem across different roms even using safestrap. an fxz fixed her right up

My phone randomly restarted itself and since then it has had serious problems. The battery never goes up and when unplugged it goes down ridiculously quickly and goes down 1% every 37 seconds. Running cm10.1.3 with Kodak kernel.All was fine until this restart. PLEASE HELP!!!!

Yet another thread about the battery?
Yours sounds like a more serious problem, but you could at least search and find the standrd trouble-shooting - check what is reported as using the battery for a start?
1% in 37 seconds cannot possibly be a software issue - even running every app, all hardware and CPU/GPU at full wouldn't do that.

i can imagine only one way for this to happen. perfomance governor or u did something wrong there thats buging the cpu to work 100% permenatly. use an app to watch your cpu usage, does the cpu go down to 102 when u do nothing or it stays up to 1000+ ?
if it stays up 1st thing check the governor and 2nd use wakelock detector to see exactly where the bug is so you dont do it again after reflashing the kernel.
Yes it does seem to go down to 102 but now the battery goes down 1% every 1 and a half minutes which is still too quick. Is it worth a factory reset? This problem occurred spontaneously so it has nothing to do with the kernel.

1% every one and a half is fine. everyone has battery drain around that percentage
Oh if that's the case then I should be alright. Its just that when the screen was on doing nothing just awake it went down that quickly. But whenever I'm doing something on the phone while its charging it still goes down which it never did before. Do you think its a software or hardware issue?

It still depends on what you are doing and whether you have Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, high brightness, high CPU etc while you are doing it. When I used to play Ingress my battery would go down quicker than I could charge it - either from a high-current car charger or from my external battery pack.
First off, i know ALOT of people have this issue, and have brought it up across several topics and custom rom pages, but i dont think theres a specific thread for this.
After unplugging my phone from the charger at 100%, it drops to 98 percent immediately, within seconds. After that to 96, then 94, and then it stays steady and starts discharging normally. Basically, within a minute or two the charge drops from 100 to 94 percent without any use whatsoever. This happens across multiple roms so its not a rom issue.
Ive tried wiping the entire phone, running it down to 0% and recharging, recharging it back to 100% once it hits 94%, but the problem keeps recurring.
Is the battery starting to lose its life? What are some ways i can test to see whats causing this? Or better yet, a way to fix this?
For example, is there an app that can tell you the capacity of the battery at any given time, so i can check if it actually drops mAh between 100% and 94%?
Oh yea, and i normally take the phone off the charger right when the green light turns on and it hits 100%, so its not caused by trickle charging.
Any tip is appreciated.
Unplugging and plugging it back in right after it hits 100% causes the phone to start charging from 95% again, happened twice in a row now.

same with my htc one.I did every calibration,power saving but nothing change.i came from GPE when i notice this sudden battery drop.then convert it again to its stock ruu,update it to 4.3,same battery drop then final update it to 4.4.2 and still the same problem..from 100 to 96 to 90 then 88 just using it for 10 mins,,my max screen time is just 2hrs..
I think for a year use,,my battery start to degrade,,maybe

im not sure if its a battery issue or a system issue, it seems like the battery isnt getting topped off properly since plugging it right back in causes it to start charging from 95% again. It seems to me that it never actually reaches 100%
Same here with AOSP or Sense Rom, after i load the One over the night, plugged it off (with 100%) and turn the scrren 2 minutes later on - it loose 2 %.
In beginning i never had this - sometimes my mobile was running over 2 days without charging (Slimrom) now over 1 day running is rarely.
I think its the battery, the companies want the people buy new stuff year by year and now the time is correct with the new HTC M8 release..

thats prolly just a delay because turning on the phone uses quite a bit of battery, so the 2% is probably a result of that. One or two percent after charging is explainable, but anything more than that (ie 4-10%) then theres a problem.
same problem
I have the same problem...I charge the phone until 100% and turn off , next i turn on and lose 10% ......
this problem start with rom 4.4.2....i change to other 4 roms and the problem not go away
Now i try to downgrade to 4.3 to test

Found a way to fix it: turn off fastboot, fixed the issue for me.
Additionally, theres a calibration method that comes directly from HTC to fix this issue.
Let the phone charge while on for at least ten minutes, turn the phone off while still plugged in, and hold power, volume up, and volume down for two minutes. The phone will reboot several times.
Didn't have to do this since turning off fastboot did the trick for me.
How i turn off fastboot??
Here i can find calibration method from HTC?

I thought this was normal. it happens to me too but i thought it was because when the phone is at 100 while charging, it stops charging till it gets to 95 while still reporting 100. so if the charge is at 95 but it displays 100 and you remove the charger it would drop to 95 after a minute.
