[Q] Note wierd battery problem - Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My note is only 4-5 months old.
But what happened 3 days back was I only charged my phone to 50% in the evening and took It off, then I must have used it for 2-3 hours in night and then went to sleep.
Next morning it was 25%, I used it till 5 and then tried to charge but it won't recognize the charger.
And keep switching driving mode and s voice on and off.
Then when I restarted it, it shows 40% battery from 5% without me charging it at all.
From then on the charging problem was solved but
It goes 100-60 in 2 hrs (idle)
And rest 60% lasts a bit longer ?
Thanks for ur replies and interest.

You should calibrate or change your battery.It may had been condem.

Does sound like dud battery. If it's under 6 months, samsung will replace it under warranty.

Exactly the same her, but mine is over 2 years old. It also some times shutting down because the phone '' thinks'' that there is no power despite the batttery is over 90%...

[Q] Sedio 3500 mah problem?

I think there is a problem with my 3500 mah battery from sedio. I have had it for a few months now and it really wasnt what i expected. I had heard people who have had 2-3 days + battery life from one charge when i cant even get 24 hours on a single charge with out playing a game or using gps. Im running sky raiders 3.5 right now.
Is that bad? Should i try and get in contact with sedio? Any other tips.
Thanks in advance!
EDIT:
For example today:
13hrs since unplugged. 29%
awake 4.5 hours
That sucks right?

That is pretty bad. I'm at 12 hrs 50 mins since unplugged, 3 hrs 15 mins screen on, on stock battery. What kernel do you have?

I have to admit i am pretty new to all this stuff, just a couple of months in so i wouldnt know how to change my kernal but im sure i could figure it out if i had to.
Heres what i got:
There are all kinds of things you can do to extend your battery life but by far the simplest is to turn your screen down to quarter brightness and turn off the auto adjustment.
You need to reset your battery.
Step 1
charge the phone while turned off till the light turns green. Unplug but do not turn on then after about twenty or so seconds plug it back in and the light will be Orange again wait till its green.
Step 2
Once the charge light is green for a second time boot the phone into cwm and clear battery status. Make sure phone is still plugged in
Step 3
After you clear the batter status reboot the phone making sure that you do not unplug it . as soon as you're able to open up your app drawer once the phone has rebooted then unplug it.
Step 4
Do not charge your phone again until the battery dies and the phone shuts off.
After this you are done

For the longest time I was convinced the eBay-generic 3500mAH that came with the phone when I bought it online was faulty because it seemed I was getting identical results from my stock battery even after wiping battery stats. But now after running the battery for a week or so continuously and not swapping out to the stock battery it seems to yield much better life now that I calibrated the phone to this battery and left it in for a while.

[Q] Poor battery life

My phone has been on for about 5 hours and it is dead. Power usage says it has been running for 16 hours. There are no apps running, the screen brightness is turned down, and I have turned off many of the sync stuff.
I turn it off every night and put on charge. It says it's fully charged in the morning. Battery life was good until just recently, maybe last week or so. Is there any way to reset the battery?
There is, but you need root access. You can either use recovery to clear the battery cache or there are a few programs that will reset it for you.

[Q] Battery problem?

Hello,
I have an unlocked HTC One and I think I have some problems with the battery. For example, in the morning when I unplug it from charging and it's 100%, if I use it for like 5 minutes then the battery will drop by 6-7% and I don't think that's normal.
Then I was not at home today and I had like 19% and I decided to power it off. Then I turned it on after like 10 minutes, I had 7% left. I left it on for 10-15 minutes without using and it dropped to 2%. I turned it off again and then I turned it back on after like 5 minutes and it had 6%.
What is going on? Should I do a clean install of the software? I'm using ViperOne 6.2.1.
Thank you!

might be some app that is draining your battery, to confirm with gsam battery monitor. Maybe a rom/kernel issue or a bad battery....
Alright so I've done what the guy advised here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2765655
Apparently it fixed some of the problems but I still fail to understand this thing: so last night I had 73% battery left. I turned off the phone and then turned it back on after 5 minutes, I had 68% battery left. Why is this?
Also, sometimes the battery level shown while the phone is on does not coincide with the battery level shown in Recovery TWRP. Why is that and what can be done about it?
Thank you!
There is no way to know precisely what proportion of total charge is in a battery, it can only be estimated. Temperature, current drain, and many other factors affect the estimate. I think you're expecting too much.

[Q] Phone shuts off to 0% when used for over 30minutes (hot)

I have no complains with the speed of my z1 and its reliability. But after awhile (i have been using my phone for 1 year and 4 months now and no complain until now), my phone shuts off to 0% right after usign it for almost 30 minutes of extensive use (playing summoners war/family guy). But from the past yr i have no problem even if its too hot and drains the way it normally should, not until now. it is really annoying. It drains pretty bad from 100% to 70% then 30% to 13% then shutsoff . It still drains even when on sleep right after usign it for 30minutes. For example, playing for like 30 minutes, the battery will turn from 100% to 72% . Then after awhile on sleep for 30 minutes, the battery will be turn to 40-50% then the rest of the history will follow....
Not recently, i have noticed that waiting for my phone to cool off after it shuts off , will have it again another 50% of its life when u turn the power on again.
Before, i charge my phone for like 3 hours , now 1 hour and its full. :/ U Can really see the fault around here.
What to do ?
I have tried using Battery Calibration, Set CPU - all did not work.
This manifested after 2 months now.
Is my battery at fault?
what can i do?
Do i need to use another stock like CM12?
My phone is up to date.
Please i need ur help so badly. Any replies or same situations will help me .

Obviously your battery is at fault.
You battery must have expanded and this will go ON
See at the back of your device where is battery is located. It may have been little changed shape .I.e not flat surface little bugled
Go to service centre ASAP

For example I left it at 83% downloading some updates with WiFi and I came back after 40 minutesto find it at 76% and from the battery setting the cell standby (when I open it it says something about cell radio) used 74% of the battery and after those 40 minutes it became 77%
I would appreciate any help from u guys.

So you've lost 7% in 40 min while the phone was downloading updates. Nothing abnormal imo.

When screen was off during the night it hasn't dropped at all, and when I use it it drops 1% every 2-3 minutes with everything off except for WiFi
With the lowest brightness

1% every 3 minutes = 5 hours of screen on time.
Again, nothing abnormal here.

Turn off Fast Boot in settings. Power off phone.
Plug phone into HTC charger and charge for two minutes or more
While charging, hold down volume up+volume down+power button and continue holding
Phone will turn on and off repeatedly every 15 seconds or so while continuing to hold all three buttons
Keep this going for 2 minutes, then release buttons when phone is ON
Now, let phone charge fully normally (with phone either on or off--doesn't matter) and battery level reporting, charging and battery life should be normalized.
