The problem with the battery in the ROM ICS.

In all ROM ICS quickly gets the battery, and sometimes even 100% in 30 minutes dropped to 20%. Those who have any solutions to this problem?

This should should not be in this section. Also, you should use search and find answers.
The ICS releases on here are using a mixed kernel base which isn't pure ICS and thus can cause strange drain issues.
IF it starts to drain rapidly, reboot your phone and recharge. Also try calibrating your battery.

This is posted in the wrong forum, should be in the general section... in future read the rules
Edit: Beaten to it again

as its here i will reply for the um-teenth time. as a rule when flashing new rom ESPECIALLY if coming from GB to ICS it is HIGHLY recommended you wipe battery stats in advance setting within recovery. this is vital to getting accurate reading from your battery. also download battery calibration app from market and run it. i have no battery issue with iscream rom and battery always charges to 100% and discharges normally

hello
I'm sorry, but I just do not know English and writing through the google translator. Because of this, I do not know the general rules and posted it here. Sorry me. The fact that the calibration of the battery, I always do and it does not work, that's why I created this topic. Nothing helps to solve this problem, the battery is sometimes drops and does not work consistently. Seeking a solution to this problem. Thank you. Anyway, we have in our 4pda.ru all this problem and all the complaining about the battery and how to solve this problem we do not know. I ask on behalf of our forum to help solve this problem. Personally, I have only one consideration of this problem is due to the nucleus and that the need to wait for the official kernel. Am I right?

No problem mate. Even with proper sources battery needs calibrating. As a rule should do after every flash. Kernel sources will bring more stability to roms and correct drivers. We are all waiting for those

Charge your phone with it totally powered off

I must admit I had this problem but the screen optimisation mod on here solved the problem.

may i just quickly add 1 : with the stock ruu, the battery will still be charging even though it's 100%
with most (because i havent try all) the battery said it "charging" but the percentage is goiing down...
eg: try to charge your phone the whole night it will just be around 50-60% in the morning
anyone have the same problems?

Battery problem

Hi Folks, I hve had my note for 1 year now and haven't had any battery problems until 2 days ago when I flashed a jb rom. All was fine for about 10 hours when I started to recharge the battery again that went fine, charged to 100% and unplugged, the phone said it was at 100%. After another few hours the phone cut out, no warning just cut out. I could get the phone back on but only when plugged into the charger. So, heres my problem, phone says battery is fully charged but when I unplug the charger it cuts out now. if I boot in to recovery with out the charger it stays on for hours. if I try to start the phone up normally with out charger it doesn't work. I have tried another battery again it started fine for almost a day then the same problems again. I have tried several kernels and roms in case it was one of those that was causing the problem but its the same every time. Im not a newb when it comes to flashing roms some im 100% sure its all ok in that department. any help would be appreciated.
thanks
Graham

My note is also about 10 months old. I want to know if my battery stats. I feel like my phone is giving me short time.

What really matters here is your screen on time (I can get around 4h30 with heavy use). I also see you have a few notifications so there might be some draining apps running in the background (like that *** Facebook app which is constantly running in the background even with notifications off). In any case BBS should help you identify the "rogue" app (if any). Also I don't use Google Now as it's kind of a battery killer.

this problem is same with me...after 1 year use gnote
and this is battery problem..i dont know whats is causing it...
i try to enter recovery mode and ..battery is good..almost 4 hours screen on recovery mode
but if I try to start the phone up normally phone is reboot after 1minute in homescreen android
trying with different rom jb ..same problem ..
after replace my battery ..problem is gone..

@strachg If the phone used to work well before you flashed JB I'd recommend going back to ICS to see if the problem persists. If it disappears the reason is JB which would not supprise me since all JB roms for the Note are not really bug free. If the phone continues to behave like you described and changing the battery does not help either I'd say it's a hardware failure.

Hi, Yeah I already tried going back to ics and it was just the same, it just seems like a bit of coincidence and really annoying lol. The only thing I can think off that is causing it is as you say that its a hardware fault and it must be overcharging the battery and breaking it. If it was JB that was causing it im sure I wouldn't have been the only one by now.
thanks
Graham

how did you install jb? Was it clean on safe kernel? You havent eliminated the possibility of software issues.
Qazibazit, it looks ok.
Guideline 3,5-4,5 hours on screen time is normal (if you play games can be less, thus is from full to 1%). Total standby time, usually more then 24 hours is normal.
If you have a lot less, go read ahalfords sticky on wakelocks. All you need to know to optimize battery.

Hi baz 77 yeah using safe kernel, tried a few actually. And using utackas. Version of paranoid android now again tried a few Roms. Everything was wiped and redone the process about 20 times. I looked through all the roms. And kernel threads and no one has had this problem. New battery coming so will see how it goes now.

yep thats pretty definitive, at least if all those roms are not having same base and thus posibly same issues.
Your new battery will improve your experience quite a bit if its a good one!
Have fun with it and let us know if it worked for you

RAZR i: Screen killing battery (JB?)

My screen is using all the battery and I'm not totally sure if this is JB but I do think I got more juice on ICS. Whatever the case, my settings are:
1. Simple wallpaper, mostly black
2. Brightness at 50%, auto-dim on
3. Smartaction: using music turns brightness down to absolute minimum
Result? Phone lasts about one day, but it last longer on ICS. The battery says about 75-85% of the juice has been used by the screen alone. How can this be? Time on is about 2-2.5 hours per day.
Anyone else? Any tips, ideas?

The following tutorial/patch might help you

Can anyone else confirm if there is a battery life issue on JB? I have downloaded the udpate but not installed yet. The feedback I have been reading is very mixed from significantly shorter battery life to actual improvements after the update.

So far I've noticed great battery stats on ICS but many people complaining after JB. Hopefully there's some tweaks we can do to resolve it.

Well I'm on JB and have awesome battery life.
About 2 days and a half with 6 hours screen on and 1 or 2 hours GPS.
I froze a lot of apps, including google search (google now) wich for some people seems to be a battery drain app.

You're lucky ^^ I will steal your phone and leave mine :good:
OK I chatted with Moto, they said the first thing to do is reset the phone. I doubt if that will do much, but I've done it anyway, I'm charging so will report on this probably tomorrow.
Another tip I've read is to reset cache in the recovery menu, I haven't been able to access it in JB for some reason.

OK I can say that after resetting the phone to factory settings after the Jelly Bean update has helped a lot. Now I'm very happy.

Can you tell me which ROM you are using? I'm on the EU and experienced bad battery life after the JB update, I'm trying a factory reset now.

My phone was bought in Germany and exported from there. So, EU ROM? The factory reset helped me a lot.
P.s. I notice that the testers at GSM arena achieve 7 hours internet use or 8 hours video use at 50% brightness. I want to achieve this! The best I've got is about 5 hours mixed screen use.

I did that too but after a few weeks it went back its old ways

I updated to JB eventually, reset the phone from scratch and can't notice any difference in battery life.

Battery Calibration issue

Could someone kindly point me to the area of know-how for an issue im having with my battery. After flashing many roms and restoring many backups, my phone is losing battery faster than ever without any services running. I have used a battery calibration app to assist in my issue but to no avail. It will drain very fast but lose ZERO percents over night and even gain 4 to 5 percent while the screen is off for extended time. THis led me to believe my battery is out of whack and needs some TLC pls help b0ss

Maybe no one has helped you because they don't know the answer. Look at the forums for this device, it's not very active. Most people have moved onto other devices. As far as I know, there is no way to calibrate the battery. Have you tested a different battery?

i thought this was a general request regarding batteries, not the device itself. Mod moved this thread here.. ive tried the apps, i also just deleted the batterystats.bin file and rebooted. Still hangs on 2 %. I did buy an offbrand battery that claimed to be 4200 MA but it wasnt. It was stock size and that battery was chill for the most part for a week then literally bit the dust. Wouldnt stay charged. It even weighed half the weight as my 2 year old original battery. So now im on the 2 year old one with this issue. Would you think it would be the battery itself making this happen? Or is it related to my software?

Oh I didn't know they moved it here, I thought you originally posted here. I'm not sure on S5, but on my old LG, after flashing a few roms the phone would act weird with battery life. I'm not sure about the specifics, but I think getting it back involved draining it to 0%, charging to 100%, then draining back to 0%, and repeating the process about 5 times. But that was a different phone, so I'm not sure. Have you disabled any background apps that may be running? I've disabled all touchwiz stuff I can think of so it won't run.

Nexus 6 random suddently turns off on every build. Logcat atatched.

Hi everyone.
My name is Adam, it's my first post here, but I'm already long time with you guys.
At the beginning i would apologise for my probably bad English. But I'm already desperate to write her and ask for help.
I'm definitely not newbie. But not a "geek" of course, but doesn't scared me rooting, img flashing, adb and fastboot command's etc. I've played already with old good Xperia X10, later with HTC Desire HD long time ago. This is also my third Nexus. First was N4, then N5 and now shamu.
But...
My N6 is also quite close to "meet the wall or floor"...
So, the problem is, my Nexus randomly, suddenly turned off. Without any warning. There is no rules. Sometimes one, two times per day, other time I'm turn them on, and after a while phone go's off again. Mostly happened that when network signal strength go's lower, but not always. Sometimes it's happening with max signal strength. Just like i says, no rules. I have tried everything. Flashing stock image -the same situation. Custom ROMs -nothing changed... Cyanogen Mods 13,14, different kernels tons of radios and bootloader's -really doesn't matter. Still the same.
Around year ago battery was changed. Using now not original, but also not some "cheaper no name" battery, without any issues. Doesn't look like that are on some way connected, but probably should i mention that.
Attached Logcat log (splitted because of size restrictions), dmesg log and some SysFS dump log created with Kernel Adiutor app.
Maybe those can help and explain something.
Please help... I love my phone much... we have explored together hundreds or thousends of builds and mods, but so far I'm really close to say goodbye to my old good friend Nexus.
Greetings and thanks in advance
Adam.

The logcat Has thousands of errors and many of the errors are rom related but there is also a few battery related
11-09 22:17:16.458 20299 20335 E BatteryStatsService: power: Missing API
This I bet is where it is causing an issue.
As for the battery I wouldnt trust anything but an official replacement. I know that might not be an option really but unless it is official replacement then I wouldnt use it.

Could be true, issue attempt first time after I've changed battery, but quite long time was perfect. No such of issue. Is there some way to prove if those error are guilty?
Thanks for your respond.

The only way to tell is run completely stock. And then go from there. Any errors that come up will have to be fixed one by one until you find the issue.

Or put back the old battery temporarily to see if it works?
