So I was able flash this Rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2398003 with out any hitches. As soon as the power level goes down to 15% I plugged in the charger while Tab is turned on. It does not indicate that it is charging. So, I turned it off while plugged in. the battery logo comes up and says that it's at 100%.
I turned it back on, now it says it's at 12%, I turned it off and left the charger plugged in for about 5hrs. When I checked the screen the battery logo says it's at 100%. when I turned it on it was at 100% but was depleting the battery fast. I turned it back off, now the battery logo says it's charging. I left it for 30mins. and turned it back on. it's at 8% and cycles from "connect charger" to "charging". Now the tab is dead, it wont turn on. It doesn't even have enough juice for me to restore my back up.
Please, can anyone tell me how I can fix this. I would really appreciate it.

I was using this ROM for a long time and I flashed it over and over without facing any battery problems
so I would say that flashing that ROM caused a battery calibration problem, but sense you can't even charge when your tab is turned off
so I don't think this is the problem
the only thing I can think off is that you should try another charger [I read: cycles from "connect charger" to "charging"]
and yes this might happened, and if you don't have another charger, connect it to your computer for around 5 hours, that would do it
I am currently connecting my tab to the wall, waiting for it to get to 4hrs. I saw this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1861229 and am following it right now I hope this works. If it still does not work, I have another charger for the exact same model I could use.

Running cm7 nightly 53.
I just went to reboot the phone while the hdmi was plugged in. Screen turned off, now the whole phone won't power back on. I've pulled the battery, it won't turn on at all. It's like it just died?
Does anyone have any ideas? It's only a week old so I'm guessing cm7 has bugged?
is ur battery empty? if so, and can't boot, usually remove battery, wait a few minutes, plug in everything again, but don't switch on. after that everythig is normal.
Thanks, it was the battery. I plugged the charger in and the phone turned on. I didn't even think the battery would be dead seeing as I just saw it was at 80% when I hit reboot....
Anyway, now my battery is only lasting 3-4 hours. Before I was getting 2-3 days use out of it without charging. Now I can't leave the house without my charger. Kind of defeats the purpose of it being a mobile phone.....
Sometimes I will charge it, unplug it then unlock it, and the phone will just turn off, as it turns off I can see the battery is drained in the top right corner.
I'm going to try a stock rom again.
Hi, I need urgent help.
After running my battery down to less than 5% at a friend's house, I turned my phone off, took out the dried battery and plugged a full charged one in. However I cannot get it to turn on again.
If I plug it in (with the fully charged battery), it might either flash a battery icon on the screen then turns off. Or it could start normally (shows the battery is fully charged, but doesn't recognize it is plugged in). But as soon as I unplug the cable, the phone dies.
did anyone experience this problem before? Is this a hardware problem?
thanks
My phone has had boot problems lately, and I'm wondering if it is a hardware issue....
I've charged the phone when it is turned off (meaning that when you tap the power button, the white screen with the battery icon pops up). I've charged it to 100%, unplugged it in the morning, and when I come back at night, the phone is at 0%.
Does that make sense? Is the phone not really off if the battery charge screen shows up when you plug it in?
If it's draining from 100 to 0 in a day with the power off, it could be hardware for sure. As long as you're sure it was full when you unplugged it.
Try with it on and install gsam. See how long it lasts on...
And what gsam says before its dead.
Running stock 5.1.1 on my 64gb. Was curious as when charging, it will say its charged and battery indicator only showing 99%. Does anyone else have this issue? Noob question here just never really noticed this till today
Unplug it from charger, wait a few moments. Then plug into charger. It should reach 100%.
If that doesn't work, try turning the device completely off, plug that sucker in and let it charge up.
Hi!
I'm having a problem whith a friend's S3 which I'm not being able to solve.
When the phone is not connected to the charger the battery lasts less than a few minutes being overly optimist.
He bought a new battery, and exactly the same happens.
If I try to charge it when it's turned off, the charging indicator flips between 100% and whatever number between 10 and 100%. So it goes like 100% - 30% - 100% - 31% - 100% - 32% . When it seems charged, I unplug it, try to turn it on, and WHEN IT DOES TURN ON, almost instantly the message "Battery low, connect charger" appears. Sometimes I can't turn it on if it's not connected to the charger.
I've tried rooting the phone, flashing an updated recovery which let me wipe the battery stats, but it didn't work.
Whith the phone rooted I tried whith some play store "Battery doctor apps", same results.
I can't seem to find the problem, any help would be really appreciated!
I have to add that I measured the battery charge with a multimeter and it reads 2.77V out of 3.8 , meaning it's 73% charged.
The phone won't turn on unless I connect it to the charger.
