D4 battery abnormality? - Motorola Droid 4

hello to all, anyone can help me why. My d4's battery is so abnormal, when I charge it while it is OFF, it says i have 70% or 80% of the battery. But when I turn on it, it says 5% battery remaining. I'm not using custom rom for now and back to original stock rom JB 4.1

Have you tried wiping battery stats?

stock to extended battery?

I just switched from the stock battery to extended yesterday and was wondering if there's anything I should do to "re-calibrate" the phone properly? I wiped battery stats once it was fully charged for the first time with the new battery, but it does seem to be dropping faster than I imagined. Should I give it a few cycles to settle in, or try and charge/wipe it again?
Give it a few cycles. It gets better over time. The same goes for the stock battery. This has been the same with every Android phone I've owned.

Get battery calibration off of android market (assuming you have root) then charge to the point that battery calibration says your battery is at 4200mV (full charge) and press the calibrate button. Unplug your phone and let it drain to the point that it shuts itself down, then charge completely to 100%.
Alrighty thanks.....seems like the battery might be crap.....doesn't last very long....

I got the extended battery off of amazon, and I get roughly 2 days of minimal usage, and 7 to 10 hours of heavy usage.. that's the 1930mAh battery, not the brick 3000 mAh. Lol
Ya I just ordered one cause I think this batt might be crap

Mine does it also, sometimes. I noticed that happen more frequently if i reboot the phone with quickboot, and not if I do a proper power off and power on.
Ya know my battery is fine from what I can tell

Yeah that's actually lower than normal. Batteries display their median voltages. A 3.7 volt battery fully charged is 4.2 volts, and completely drained (for my battery at least) is 3.2 volts. 3 volts is kinda low, but maybe you have a different phone model or battery.

It sounds like your battery need external charging...
Maybe plug and unplug to keep the orange light on until it stays on

Wouldnt redo Doin his battery stats in cwmr
HTC vivid
No... The problem is that the battery is dead... There are a few threads about this...
For some reason... Some vivids don't charge dead batteries...
**shakes fist at HTC**
And wiping battery stats only clears your batterystats.bin... All but useless unless you swap between 2 batteries

Its not 'some vivids'. Some custom recoveries don't support off-mode charging. If you have one of those recoveries, the battery won't charge when it completely dies or when the phone turns off. So an external charger, or another vivid, is required to charge the battery. Once the battery is charged, I suggest replacing your recovery..

Battery Heats Up

Why my samsung galaxy mini heat up when during charging mode? :| Whole phone becomes very hot.
Lack of info. Stock? Rooted? Which rom? Overclocked? Underclocked? Change voltages? Governor setting? Which kernel? Swollen battery? Wakelock? JB? ICS? I can do this all day.

Stock
Yes Rooted.
Rom - Original
Not sure about other stuff ;D
Go to your settings, then battery. See if there is anything eating up alot of battery or causing a Wakelock. Could be an app or game you have that's causing it. Could also be the battery going bad if it's been over charged or gotten wet. There an app in the market that shows how and when apps run, and it shows the battery they use. Sadly I can't remember it's name, so hopefully someone will chime in and let you know. It should help single out a "bad" app.

There is Phone Idle which uses 45% of my battery
Cell Standby which use 48% of my battery
Display 5%
Download Better Battery Stats from the market (or elsewhere) to find out more specifically what's eating up resources. Since you're on a stock rom I believe your problem is either a bad battery, or an app/game.

You must get virtually no signal. That could also be the problem.

hey try this method ...
1 .. do not overclock
2 .. do not put ur mob in cover
3 .. do no over charger means remove charger when mobile is showing full charge ,
4 .. (funny one) if possible , try to use mobile without back cover for five min in between 1 hour ,
5 .. use good rom for ur device
this is very easy steps u can use it normly ... if it happen still i will prefer u to go for service centre ...
1 .. do not overclock
Nothing wrong with it if you know what you're doing.
2 .. do not put ur mob in cover
Nothing wrong with a case. If it leads to overheating then there is a different problem.
3 .. do no over charger means remove charger when mobile is showing full charge ,
I agree 100%.
4 .. (funny one) if possible , try to use mobile without back cover for five min in between 1 hour.
Nobody does this unless there is already a problem.
5 .. use good rom for ur device
This is a matter of opinion. Stock, or a vetted rom. Up to the user.
1, 2 and 5 don't apply to him. 3 is important for him. 4...couldn't hurt I guess.

I did little check. So it happens not all the time. Today I charged my phone and everything was alright.
Few days ago I have charged my phone with Blackberry's charger could this cause the problem?
Yes, it could have. Chargers are different. Always use the one designed for that specific device.

Is charging voltage of the charger exactly the same as the one ur battery needs? Original samsung charger has got 5.0V
Abandoned, and not even a thank you for your help or time. Tis sad.

Don't use your phone too much (especially YouTube) if you're charging; also, don't place your phone on cloth eg: blanket, bed, under pillow etc.

Is this normal?

Hey,i have a weird issue,if that,with my battery..Just wanted to know whether this is good battery life or is my battery going bonkers?

It's probably just a case where the application you're using and the battery aren't calibrated.
Sent from my GT-I9070
Reboot phone. Maybe that will work.
And please then caliberate battery
Calibrate batery.. <facepalm> It is an android myth and it isnt working! You can only discharge your phone to 0% (when it off) and recharge to 100%. Then you have full anergy, and maximum battery life.
