Hi All,
My battery is lasting for over an hour at 1%. This makes me think that the battery isn't calibrated properly, but the methods I've seen posted for recalibrating my battery haven't worked. Here is what I've tried:
Use phone until it shuts down automatically from low battery
With phone still turned off, charge it until it reaches 100% (about 4 hours)
Turn phone on and use it normally
I've tried doing this method twice in a row, but I'm still having the same issue. I don't remember having this issue when I first bought the phone, although I also made the mistake of not fully charging the phone before I started using it.
Any suggestions for fixing this issue? I don't want to root my phone as I don't have a stable computer (random BSOD) and I'm afraid of bricking it. Thanks!
Lasting an hour on standby.... Or using the phone?
I drain at around 1 percent an hour on standby, and some have even less drain than that.... So if that's mostly stand by you're talking.... It's probably not an issue.
If that's an hour at 1 percent mostly using the phone, then yeah... That ain't right. Lol

Any ideas on a fix? I've had the phone for over a month now so I don't think its possible to return it to Verizon at this point.

only thing I could think of, are you rooted? if so, have you made any mods? If not, RSD it back to stock..
If you're getting good battery life I wouldn't worry much about it.

My phone has decent battery life, I typically see 2-3hrs SOT. Not sure how people get 5+ hrs.
The main problem is that when my phone gets low battery I never know when its going to die, since it stays at 1% for so long. A little stressful when I'm doing navigation in a new area, so I'd really like to fix it

Here's a pic of my battery stats that were particularly bad. I think in this one exchange services was eating the battery, but android OS is usually the primary battery consumer.

KJ,
Those pics are unusual usage I would say, but they do illustrate the 1% issue. I'm coming straight from the VZW galaxy nexus so anything over 2hrs SOT seemed awesome to me haha.
Thanks for the tips, I'll check out the thread soon.

sometimes it takes your phone one or two cycles to cache up the battery stats. but I would agree that the battery stats file is probably corrupted. i think you might be able to enter the stock recovery mode (without root) and wipe the battery stats. but I'm new to this phone - just talking from prior experiences.

I looked through the recovery mode and didn't see an option for clearing battery stats.

Still reading through the battery thread before I make a decision, but it sounds like doing a factory reset might be a good option. Looks like a lot of people are also experiencing high android OS usage.
I'm having the same issue and similar battery stats. I've been on 1% for well over and hour now and never get over 2 hours screen on time.
I've tried several things over the last few days and nothing seems to improve. Curious where you're personally going to go from here. Please keep me updated...

Hey Guys,
ever since the 5.1 Update to my Moto X I have been having the same strange bug reported here: Early in the evening it will tell me my battery is about to die (1%) but the phone will still run for hours (not one.... the whole night actually) - see screenshot. This occured together with the famours bug where Android updates its apps if the phone booted while charging. I have of course done a whipe - two times actually. Any idea?
Looks like I am the second person to report this? Anybody else having a similar problem? Super bummed. :crying:
http://www.reddit.com/r/nexus6/comments/2nrqqe/nexus_6_shuts_off_at_about_50_percent_battery/
"I have been fighting the exact same thing for 10 days now. Tonight I finally did my 6th factory image back to stock restore. Every day it gets worse. Started of just dying fast. 2 hours screen on time at most. Then it started shutting off at 50%. Then 64%. As of right now as soon as it gets to 73% it flashes power saving mode briefly and then shuts off instantly and won't power back on until I charge it. I can charge it for 2 or 3 minutes and then it boots up and says its already charged to 85%.
At the end of my rope with this. Already initiated my RMA earlier tonight but it makes me very very sad as this has been my most favorite Android ever and I have had *tons* of them. I know they don't have any replacement devices in stock anywhere and I'm not waiting weeks for repair of my 10 day old phone. Sending it back for a refund. Might try one again a few months down the road."
Well I tried going back to my Note 3 last night but after 15 minutes I was hating it. After one last factory reset last night in a dire attempt to somehow make it work it now shuts off shortly after hitting 97% battery. Moto hasn't been very much help. They suggested I do another factory reset and see if that fixes it. They are escalating my ticket but I have to call back tomorrow during normal "Order Administration Department" business hours, although he doesn't make it sound like they have any replacements available at this time he said order admin should be able to help.
I don't think this is anything I can be fixing on my end. Sounds like either some bad batteries are made it passed QC or the Turbo Charger is destroying batteries that were on the edge of not passing QC already. Phone does get very hot when turbo charging. Either way, color me crushed. :crying:
Damn dude!
Go through with the RMA. You got a dud, no other way to cut it.
Oh... and answer your texts!
Any update on this? I am experiencing the same thing though it happened around 73%. Once the phone was off it would not turn on unless I plugged it in (displayed dead white battery image on black screen). Once I plugged in, the phone booted back up and began charging from 73%. I had the phone for over a week and today is the first time it happened.

Exact same thing. So let me ask you a question, do you charge overnight? I have for many years but I haven't at all with the Nexus 6 because the turbo charge is so fast that its always charged to 100% before I go to sleep. So since I got the N6 as soon as it hits 100% I unplug it and just set on my nightstand for the night.
Anyways, and I could be very wrong, I am wondering if it's not actually getting charged to 100% when it says it is for some reason? I finally got fed up with it last night and left if on the turbo charger overnight even though it already said it was charged 100%. Well today its been off the charger for about 8 hours and still hasn't shut down, at 84% now. Last night it was shutting off at 97% but when I would boot to bootloader it would say BATTERY: low charging.
Still waiting on Moto at this point.
I actually have a different experience. After one day,with one full charge, it shut down, stuck on google icon and only can charge it, i can log on boot-loader, make hard reset but it still not start. I made manual flash of factory image and now it works fine. Still have doubts that happened because of the battery. I put it on the table at night with 100% and wakes up with 75%
@GrandMasterB - So it's almost like the battery stats need(ed) cleared??? Hmmmm.....

Welp, I thought everything was going pretty well today after charging it overnight. Been off the charger for almost 11 hours now with 34 minutes screen on time and still running but as soon as it hit 72% it shut off. I officially give up. I can't have this thing dying randomly in the middle of the day like this. Please let me know what happens with yours.
I believe moto has inventory set aside for returns. I was going to return mine (sticker falling off) and was told I would get one in 2-3 days and not dependent on normal inventory.

I want to add I haven't used my wireless charger and I did not experience this issue again. I had about 60% last night when I charged it with the cable before bed. Not sure if it is related to wireless charging.
All these are happening with the ATT model? Not the other carrier models.

I do have a Choe Stadium wireless charger I ordered specifically for the Nexus 6. I've never had a wireless charger before. I used it the very first night and never had the chance to use it again because I was constantly having to Turbo Charge to keep it up and running.
Still had this happen at least 2x a day for 13 days straight until I sent it back yesterday. Got to work yesterday and pulled it out of my pocket to box up and it was dead at 81%. So I supposed the wireless charger could have cause that initial damage ( if thats what happened ) but my problem didn't get better after after I stopped wireless charging. In fact it got worse everyday.

Mine was purchased direct from Motorola.
I was going to suggest resetting the battery stats, but it really just sounds like the phone is a lemon. I'm sure the replacement will be good.

Yep, exact same one I purchased. That makes me pretty sad though, that was one of my favorite parts of the Nexus 6. So did ATT send you the replacement or did Motorola and was it a "Like New" device or a new device with box and everything?

AT&T sent me a new one with OEM box and cable/charger/booklets. Looks brand new. They told me 3-5 days to ship but it came the next day. No questions asked. Didn't even want to know what was wrong with the old one. I get a discount from work so I had to contact the AT&T Premier support.

How's the new one?
I got mine from Google on Monday and have same results - phone powers down at 50-60%, when trying to turn it on complains battery's depleted.
Attaching USB charger (not turbo one), charging for a minute and turning phone on again shows battery at 51%-62%
Interesting fact is that I am using same wireless charger - though a friend of mine is also using it and had his phone for much longer and hasn't noticed any issues like that.
Does the new phone works OK?

Try charging while the phone is off.
Mine stops charging completely at 99%, the charger somehow kills itself. I fixed it by turning off my phone and then plugging in the charger.
So when i drained my battery, i was able to leave it charging til 100%, as soon as i turn on the phone though, and use it throughout the day. If i charge it with a USB or magnetic connector, it stops taking a charge at 90-92%. With the phone off, it still stays stuck at 92%. I can't use the battery calibration app because it sticks at that percent. How can i get it to force charging til around 99%?

Or this could have been a result of moderator throwing a part of another thread out to a separate thread / moving the thread to a different forum. In this case psychiatric drugs aren't the cause, but some ignorance of the ways the forums work is, on someone else's part.
In any case, a long time ago, some of the first Androids wouldn't charge if you'd plug it and it was above 90% already. Not a bug - a feature, over-current protection. Stopping at 90+% while charging from lower values would indicate incorrect data in battery controller - or maybe incorrectly engaging over-current protection. And indeed charging while turned off is charging differently - not the same kernel running - so the behavior is also different, and it might correct the problem. Once the battery is fully charged, its stats should be erased by Android and prevent recurrence of the problem.

I should have paid attention in Chemistry class. I suggest you take it to the nearest Sony Service Centre before it causes any serious issues. Sounds like a defective battery.

Usually when they move a thread, they usually write "Move to (forum)" Forum = Whatever forum it is.
You should try this method, but i think it makes sense when your phone thinks it's 100% charged, and it's not.
Charge it to full (or 92% in your case), then do a force reboot. Power key and vol+ at the same time untill it shuts down and vibrates three times.
When you switch it on it should show correct battery state (maybe 100%?).
But as I say, its just a calibration method for non rooted sony phones. But i hope this maybe might help you.
I have the same problem, after updating til Lollipop. Can only charge to 91%. But that’s only when I use a Sony charger. When using other brands of chargers (Apple, HTC, Anker) I can charge to 100%
Any ideas what the problem is?
Hey guys, recently my phone has been turning off at around 15-20% battery remaining. Before it drop from 15% to 1% within a matter of 45 seconds and then die, but as of recently it has been turning off at 20% and then it goes into a bootloop until I plug it in again. I've a N910W8 and am on TEKXodus URv3.6R3. I can't take it in for warranty as the phone is (obviously) rooted. I've already tried the battery calibration app on Play Store and I'm going to try Poprocks rom and if that fails, I'm going to go back to stock LP and then try my luck at the Samsung Warranty Center. Any other suggestions would be great! Thanks!
I'm completely stock, never rooted. It's been dieing between 5-10% left. I think it's just lollipop.

Just an update guys, I reverted back to stock (A0A1) 4.4.4 and then installed FireKat V13X Canadian Edition and my battery is no longer acting up. Definitely a Lollipop issue.
same thing for me. for older phones i remember having a recovery that let me reset the battery stats. i also noticed that when i charge it after it goes from above 10% to 0% and turning off, when i charge it, it would give me the percentage before it turned off. i almost thought it was a battery issue but i see from others its not. i dont leave the phone charging for long times and dont use the phone while charging.
I've been having battery problems lately too, the OEM one gets warm and does the sudden drop thing(went from 20 to 11% in an instant the other night), and even my Anker seems to drain much faster these days on both KK & LP. Neither Wakelock detector nor Gsam can find anything wrong, so I think maybe they're both just aging and need replacing :/
My stock Tmobile Note 4 was turning off at about 60%, then when I plugged in the OEM fast charger, the phone battery display came up at 0%. I called Tmobile and they sent me a new battery, problem gone now. I don't know how old your battery is, but it can also be an indication of a battery on its way out.
I'm on 5.0.1.
I never had it shut down at such a high indicated percentage, but on LP it would consistently shut off at 2-4%.
I went back to KK and it doesn't do that anymore.
I have the same problem. Anywhere from 10-30% the battery can die in an instant. Happened a couple of times while looking at the screen - the battery drops to zero in about 3 seconds. Wont boot up again until the charger is plugged in.
In my case I don't think its the software. Was working great for months - this is something that is steadily getting worse. I only noticed because I wasn't getting the battery level warnings at 15 and 5%, which I did used to get with the lollipop OS. Have ordered a new battery, hopefully this will do the trick.
Got new batteries
Update: I bought new batteries and so far so good. I think it was just an issue with the Samsung batteries. Went with Anker this time and everything seems to be good.
Just get a new battery. I had this same problem with the n6 until I got. Refurb

Yes, I had the same. Bought new battery. Not yet sure if sudden drop is fixed since it now lives way longer and lasts through entire day and still has 40-50% left.
Drop will probably be fixed, too.

Definitely a battery. With new one I drove with google navigation for 3 hours, put total over 4 hours of screen time and still couldn't get it to 0. Went to bed when it still was 10% or so.
Pretty amazing after old battery which would barely last through the day and died after 15%

Did battery replacement solve the problem for you guys? I'm having this issue for a few days now, and it can't be lollipop, I've upgraded months ago. Also, which replacement battery would be the best?
OK, this is some really weird behaviour. At 14% the "plug in your phone" warning sounds and it goes to power save mode. I rush to plug it in before it shut down. I plug it in on time, the "fast charge" message triggers. But, instead of charging, the battery goes down to 13%. 9%. I turn off the screen not to drain the power more and I wait for a few seconds. Turn on again, it's 4%. Turn off and wait some more. I turn on, and it's 1%. So I turn off again and wait, expecting it to shut down when it reaches 0%. It doesn't. I turn the screen back on again, and it's 3%. 5%. 12%. Charging normally. I don't get it why it went down to 1% before it started charging? And why the sudden power collapse only after the "battery low" message went off? It worked fine before that. If this is a battery issue, which is a hardware issue, why was it triggered by the software "battery low" message?
So today while visiting a friend and doing a couple things on my phone the battery showed 81%. Suddenly it cut off and would not cut back on. I put it on the charger for about 20 mins and it came back on and showed 16%.
When I took it off the charger it was at 100% and I didn't use it at all between her house and mine. It's also eating battery super fast now. I'm not rooted or anything but this has me concerned. I signed up for the 1 to 1 trade but I'm worried about waiting now. Anyone else experiencing weird battery issues?
I'd be a bit concerned about that. If the battery really was at 81%, and the hardware decided the battery was dead, it really makes new wonder if this wouldn't allow it to become over charged and go "pop"..

So today while visiting a friend and doing a couple things on my phone the battery showed 81%. Suddenly it cut off and would not cut back on. I put it on the charger for about 20 mins and it came back on and showed 16%.
When I took it off the charger it was at 100% and I didn't use it at all between her house and mine. It's also eating battery super fast now. I'm not rooted or anything but this has me concerned. I signed up for the 1 to 1 trade but I'm worried about waiting now. Anyone else experiencing weird battery issues?

Last night mine went from 21% to 15% instantaneously while watching YouTube. Not worried, however, it's going back when the replacements arrive.
So now I get a Samsung+ warning that my device is draining battery faster than its charging. I was using my official wireless fast charger. After noticing that the phone only got up to 30% after a hour I switched it to the wall charger that came with it. charging is still going slow. I even did a factory reset.

I'd do another factory reset and let the phone sit for a while before setting it up. Then I'd make do and exchange it ASAP! Keep a careful eye on charging temperature in the meanwhile. I'm thinking of charging mine on a baking sheet so it can't ignite anything, lol! Since you are having such unusual problems, can't be too cautious!

This happened to me exactly the same way. I had over 70% left and then all of a sudden it wouldn't turn on. I plugged it in and phone showed it was at 0%.
I've done a full reset and hasn't happened since.

So same thing today. Phone has been warm all day. Battery got down to 60% and died. I probably had about 45mins screen time
Same thing happened to me 2 days ago. I was at 60% and put it down to do some yard work and an hr later when I came back to check on it it was completely dead!
I was like wtf!!
Hope they fix this ****!!

Today my battery has lost it mind. Has died on me after roughly 4 hrs from fully charged, and not being used but for half a dozen messages. I did notice some extreme usage my Android and Google which I haven't seen these numbers this high in a long time

Mine was at 30% and turned off. I've also noticed sometimes my battery says 100% but will still have the red led charging light on,rather then green when it's fully charged. I wonder if it has something to do with the battery stats.

Might be a good idea to clear the cache as well. I do it every three days and it works wonders for me.

A week ago, I posted over in the Sprint forum about this happening with my note 7, though, as you can see, nobody cared, lol. Now that all this battery fire stuff has come out, I'm looking at my phone with a bit of suspicion.

Edit: Haha, I was looking at the screen shot from my thread and saw 4% battery. I thought my phone's battery hand tanked again and was about to drop it before it burst into flames!

Is your phone running hot? Mine is always warm and I'm getting very high cpu usage from Android system and Android IS. It didn't die outta no where today, but my battery life is horrible. Today I got 57 mins of Screen time by the time it 15% in about 7hrs and that was with battery saver on all day.

No, it actually runs very cool. I also am getting good battery life (about 5 hours sot). Actually, everything went back to normal after the bizarre battery behavior that I had one night a week ago.

Weird. Mine did it twice, battery life has been horrible and my wireless fast charger wont charge it. Says it's draining faster that it's charging. I've factory reset 3x already. Can't wait until my replacement Note comes in.

Guys,
This is not a single issue, I also had been running into the same battery dying out of nowhere. Check the thread I started

Haha, I'm thinking of going iPhone, too, but I'm a little scared to wait the week, and I don't have a phone to use in the meantime.

Who's to say some problem won't crop up with the new iPhone? Maybe you shouldn't rush in. I wouldn't be in this mess if it weren't for the high price and my plan to use the promotions to mitigate that. I always wait a couple of months to buy but by then the promotions would have expired. Anyways, it's done, now trying to stay positive and remember I have a Tab and SD card for my trouble.
