The battery percentage of my S3 Mini is going down while i'm charging it. and this problem only started a week ago. uhm, any solutions for this prob?
anyways my phone is not rooted and it's in ver 4.1.2 yep thanks
Have a look on the battery usage screen, does it indicate that its charging at the top by the percentage? If so, does it say usb or ac? Also, are you doing anything with the phone when you state it's discharging?

Try different charger. Did you check your usb port? Maybe there is some kind of a deffect (broken pin...). Did you try to charge your phone while it is off? Try to shut down phone, remove battery for 5 minutes and then put it back.

Hey guys,
I connected my phone to my PC over night for charging as always but when I got up and took my phone it only had 4% battery! It's like the battery just wiped itself from a moment to the other. And now when I try to charge it again the light shows it charges but when I turn on my phone after 30min the battery didn't charge at all... Did anyone experience this before? Do I have to buy a new battery?
Sounds like your battery is shot. So you may need a different battery.
Try different cables etc but if that doesn't work you need a New battery.

Tried a few cables. Weird thing though: In recovery it says 32% and when I boot it up now it says 9% but doesn't really change. Seems like the battery is screwed up... Could it be that the Desire HD has got the exact same battery? Because if it's so I could try with the battery from my dad's DHD...
EDIT: Ok, it's not the same This is gonna be expensive...
EDIT2: So I got my new battery but the phone still drains too fast imo and I can't really charge the battery to 100%... Is sth wrong with the USB-port??

This might help.
Let your battery drain completely and let your cell get switched off.
And then in switched off state, charge your phone completely.
Switch it on...Use your cell as you do it regularly.
Repeat this procedure 3-4 times.
You will be surely benefitted.
did you try plugging into the wall? different USB port?
I had similar issue awhile back that it didn't want to charge with USB but with the AC adapter it worked fine. Also noticed it wouldn't work with USB at all I sent it in for repair and it was apparently USB port broken. Then I had to send it in again because when they fixed usb they broke mainboard
p.s omg I hate captcha tried posting this 10 times ...
Looks like I forgot to post So here is what happened: I got a new battery but even that I couldn't charge with USB. Than I pulled out my AC adapter and it works fine now. Looks like my USB Port is shot but since it still works and just won't charge my phone, I'll ignore that. But my old battery was surely shot because I couldn't even charge it with AC adapter...
Sorry if this seems a little late. It could be the roms fault you are getting strange readings. When I use ice cold and reboot my phone, the battery percentage reading changes like crazy. Sometimes the reboot makes the reading go up, and sometimes down.
USB port breaking is a common fault on inc s, though, so it could be that also, as you have said.
I tried ar least 5 different ROMs so I'm pretty sure that's not it That was also the first thing that came into my mind;D
Have u checked the charger plug cos if its that stupid black charger that comes with the phone they can play up my old one does this and I have to twist it slightly for the pins to touch try a apple charger or another USB charger

yesterday before i go to sleep i plugged in my gnote in the charger it was about 30% or 25% i cant remember and i slept when i woke up i found that its 3% although the charging sign is shown and the device is (supposdly) charging so i took out the battery for 2 mins then out it back it started normally and charged for about half an hour and arrived to 12% but then it dropped to 1% then disconnected and now i try to start it the green battery sign comes and then dissapears right away i tried plugging it to my sister's s2 charger but it wont detect the charger ! any help please ?! i am running stock rom JB and also i have been noticing that recently it my gnote started to take a really long time to charge after it took basically 4 or 5 hours now it takes like 14 or 12 hours ! any help please
==update==
i was trying to reflash the rom myabe it would work but while flashing it the laptop shut off on its on i have no idea why in the middle of flashing the rom the mobile is now stuck at the downloading screen !!! i tried taking of the battery and starting it again it said Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again and when i open download mode it says low battery can't download so i plugged it into the wall charger again and now its completely dead
Charge the battery using external charger or borrow a charged battery for note and try again..

You may try with a new battery, and remember to don't try flashing anything with low battery, it can brick your Note.
Galaxy Note batteries are well known for their poor lifetime.
well take a charged battery and try it again. And DO NOT flash anything when on low battery. Also check if the charger plugs are properly inserted in the socket and the USB contact terminal is properly connected.
Usb port problem. Better replace it..

When my phone isnt rooted it charges perfectly fine so I dont think its the charger problem
Your device is a chinese ripeoff of the S3, you gotta expect bad stuff to happens.. Sorry to say.
Now, I'd go in battery stats (in settings) and see what's draining your battery. Chances are that it has nothing to do with rooting. My guess is that you have a app or system app draining all your juice.

I don't think you understood what I said, rooting your device should have no effect on how fast your battery charges.
If you wanna test it, unroot your device and try charging it.
Hey fellow XDA members,
My S3 Mini seems to lose charge while its in the charge and charges really slowly. I had it months ago when I used the charger that came with the phone so I have been using an IPhone wall adapter with the S3 Mini micro USB cable. Which was working until around a month ago when it showed started doing the same thing. I have tried a new battery, a new phone socket, an S3 charger. I have a feeling its still a faulty socket because my brothers phone charges on my iPhone+Micro USB combo charger. Does anyone have the same problems? What can I do to fix this? I'm running Maclaws CM12. Thanks.
This issue occasionally shows up on my device too. Mostly a reboot or removing the battery for a few seconds solves this.

Had the same problem. For me it was the charger. Try to plug the iPhone wall adapter in the wall socket and then plug in the original USB-Cable of your phone very slowly into the iPhone adapter. For me it helped because otherwise it didn´t charge.
But maybe its a CM12 problem. I don´t know...

I've had had the same problem too, and it's not a cm12 problem. I had it on stock too. But yeah, a reboot usually helps for it. :thumbup:

It could also be that your battery is reaching the end of its life, but I doubt it. Mine is only a year old, so unless it's more than 2 years old, that couldn't be the case.

not true. it may very well be dead after a year, such was the case for me.
OP: check your battery. if it is swollen you'd better get a new one.

I've had my phone for a year. I've got a spare battery, and I have tried to see if the charging problem goes away but it was still present. Right now I am trying to drain the battery completely, then taking it out for a few seconds and then charging it to full and repeating the process.
When you try this use this App! For me it made the battery life better! I use always after flashing a new ROM.
