hey guys, this is a very weird problem. I just noticed this problem.
I charged my phone up to 100 percent. went down to 86 percent or something like that. it was like 2 hours and 30 mins on battery. I restarted my phone. I look at the battery time and it was at like 2 mintues. it started its cycle all over. Then I also noticed it wasn't counting on screen time. I even went into details and it said screen wasn't on.
anyone having this bug problem?

The battery drops quickly to 5 %. Often skips levels, such as drops directly from 40 to 20.
If I reboot, the percentage often increases by several levels.
When it has reached 5 %, it stays there for a long time before shutting itself down.
I plug the charger in and it will say 5 % but already after 20-45 min it will say maybe 50 %.
Then I unplug and start the phone, and then it might say 70 % instead of 50.
I use battery monitor widget and have some interesting lines of info from its history attached as a screen shot.
At the top of the screen shot, I started running wifi hotspot (the temperature drops because I placed the phone in the refridgerator so that it wouldn't get so hot).
Notice how it drops from 50 % to 15 % in 10 minutes.
Notice how it then stays at 5 % for more than 90 minutes before shutting itself down.
Notice how it recharges quite quickly, 20 % almost immediately after plugging in and starting up the phone.
I have tried a new battery and I think I even got the entire phone replaced (warranty), but this still happens.
I've tried various calibration techniques and ROMs...
Does this happen to anyone else and does anyone know of a calibration technique that actually helps for this?
Its realy strange u can try to delate date/system/baterystats.bin maybe that help... I got no clue why u phone see diferent voltage every time. Did u change u system recently?

Change the system? I flashed Telus Lite a week or two ago. You're right, I hadn't thought about the voltage going up and down
I have tried deleting that file
Would someone with a Milestone with alright battery life, please upload their batterystats.bin here, so I can try replacing mine with it?
I have this same issue with the battery I bought in amazon. Out just takes 1h to see the high percentage battery drops. The battery calibration does not work.
This Issue not happens with the battery that came with the phone.
Sent from my Milestone using XDA App
I have the original battery and a battery from ebay, the phone acts the same way with both though.
Would really appreciate it if someone could upload their batterystats.bin
Edit: This is probably gonna need a new thread.
I am facing some weird issue with my Nexus One. At least once a day my phone shuts down all of a sudden! The battery drains out completely (0%). Actually I had fully charged the phone only sometime before the shutdown happened. It keeps on happening. Then I have to charge the phone for a long time. It is completely normal. This has happened even sometimes when the phone is in my pocket! It happens in air-conditioned rooms and when it shutsdown, the phone is not hot. Could it be a hardware problem? It happens consistently with every ROM and kernel (even with nandbackups which used to work properly a few months back). This is really annoying. My phone is out of support and I cannot send it back to Google as well.. Any help?
Did this problem start just recently? If so, you might be facing the same thing as nir0th and I, described in this thread.
My battery had always been quite good, and a few days ago it started draining very quickly. I've not been able to figure out what's causing it.
Drastic battery drain is different.. I am having something else.. The battery charge would be something like 60% to 65%.. The next second it becomes 0% and the phone shutsdown instantaneously.
That could mean that your battery is badly calibrated but I doubt it because one usually it won't be that major of a difference and two when you drop to 0% and charge back to 100% multiple times it should fix it so I will say it's hardware and it's dropping power somewhere either an internal part or the battery isn't holding a charge so I would get a new battery cause it's allot cheaper then if that doesn't work send it to htc.
Since the phone is no longer reliable, I started using another phone. Interestingly, the phone does not have any issues without SIM card! It just stays on for around 2 or 3 days without issue. Everytime I put the SIM card, the phone shutsdown in like 5 mins..
Could this be a problem with the battery or some other internal part? I have to tell one more thing. A few days before I started seeing this problem, I forget to take my phone with me from my car to office once. It was around lunch time when I came to pick it up. It was peak of summer (in New Jersey!) and the phone was like burning when I touched it. I wrapped it in a piece of cloth because it was so hot. I guess that is what is causing the problem....
I would be glad if this is only a battery problem
Thanks for all the comments.. Looks like it was a battery issue. I got my replacement battery yesterday. It's around 20 hours and the phone is running solid. Keeping my fingers crossed! I hope this is all for this issue...
i have not had any issues with my phone battery life until about a week or 2 ago. i used to get around 7 hours screen on time at 80% brightness. i have nothing different installed on my phone from the day i got it, a few apps. i have been getting about 2-2.5 hours screen on time. anyone else noticing a major battery drain recently on their flex?
Hello XDA Community.
I bought an HTC One off of eBay, and I've been using it for 3 days now (I had a VZW HTC One before but the restrictions from VZW were annoying, let alone the updates that come after 6+ months). I did notice a problem, which is a major issue, since I depend on my phone a lot in my everyday life. The problem is this: The battery seems to lose charge normally at 100% til' 80%, then faster at 80% to 50% and within an hour or maybe less of little to no use, the phone goes to 40-30% percent and then goes from 30% to 20% in seconds, 20% to 15% or 13% in less than 10 seconds, and basically goes from 40% or 30% to 0% in a minute or two (sometimes even 30 seconds or so). It is driving me crazy.
I have been watching the phone, and I noticed something really strange, which made me suspicious of this being a software problem.
I charge the phone and by the time it goes at around 30% (30 or 31 yesterday, 36 today) it just shows the battery without the charging indication (no green filling in the battery, it just shows an empty battery and said percentages). When I unplug and plug back in the phone continues charging, but at a 76 to 80% charge. I would really appreciate some help, and thank you in advance.

Hello my friend. I bought a battery replacement off of eBay and I will go to an expert to change it for me, as soon as possible. I will let you know if the problem is fixed, or if it insists.
Lately my phone has been acting up. Took about 6 tries to get FreedomOS to install. Couldn't get past wifi setup twice. And I believe it is a bit glitched out because my phone idle doesn't actually tell me how long the phone has been idle it only shows how long it's been on. It claims I have 3 hours of standby while I have 1 hour of screen on time in its 3 hours on being unplugged. I thought reinstalling my ROM would fix it but it is still misbehaving. Any tips? Should I just switch Roms?
