Hello, today I was leaving church and my phone had no signal for about 30 minutes in an area I knew had Sprint service. So I restarted the phone having 80% battery and when the phone turned back on it was on 1%. It won't go back to reading the actual battery percentage, and the phone has been on for 2 hours since this happened so the phone really isn't on 1% battery. Any suggestions on what happened or what I should do?

I would shut it off let is sit for a while, then charge it without the phone on using the OEM charger. They unplug fire it back up. If that doesn't do anything, I would hard reset it.
If you have root maybe try battery calibration from the play store.

yesterday, my phone was stuck at 100% it wouldnt change on reboot or anything. I ran the battery calibration and nothing. what worked, was shutting off for a few minutes. weirdly even recovery would report 100%. after being off for a while, it showed the proper battery at 52%. so weird. fine now though!

Ok, I know the question about the battery not holding a charge has been asked like a million times, but with mine comes a weird error message that I cant find any literature on. Just to give a brief back story on what happened here it is.
I bought phone a year ago. Battery has worked awesome this whole time, it would charge fine and on a full charge it would last about 2-3 days with moderate use. Then just the other day it got down to 20% and my low batt warning went off like it always does and this is when I always begin charging. Well I thought I would just jump in the shower real quick then plug it in cuz in the past even at 20% my phone would last for like 8 hours. Well when i got out of the shower and went to plug the phone in, to my surprise it had turned off. I turned it back on and it got as far as the splash screen and then it instantly turned back off. So i then put the phone on the charger and the orange light came on and it was all good. A couple hours later the light turned green, i unplugged the phone and turned it on to see a battery at 100%. But now when I turned it on, i got this message "fatal error: configuration is invalid. (3)" and then the battery which was 100% only lasted like 20 minutes.
So now every time i turn on my phone i get that error message and the battery last only mere minutes. I'm pretty sure I just need to buy a new battery, but what do I do about the error message.
I appreciate any help that you could give me. Thank you in advance.
I am having a very similar problem, but without the error.
Also, I bought a new battery and still have the same problem.
I find the phone does last all day if i turn off data connection and bluetooth,
but if I open the web browser, the phone dies 5 minutes later.

i'm beginning to think that kaisers are trash! it will be 2 years in september for my kaiser and its already fallen apart. this thing is junk. my other wm devices lasted alot longer then this. i may try the new iphone in a few weeks.
Yes I too just bought a new battery and I charged it. Now the light doesn't turn green when its fully charged and yep, I still get the error message and it still dies after like 20 minutes.
I think i solved the problem somewhat. I still get the error message but the battery seems to be lasting as long as it normally did and now it turns green when fully charged instead of staying orange. I came across another forum entry from like 2006 for a completely different kind of phone but i thought i would give it a shot.
What you do is just do a soft reset on your phone while its plugged into the wall charger. Then leave it plugged in for literally like 5 hours even if the light turns green or it gets to 100%. I guess this does something to reset how your phone reads your battery or something, i dont know. All I know is that it fixed my issues.
Anyways, I hope this can help someone as it did me.

perform a hard reset and see if that solves your problem.
Today morning, I turn on my phone and I saw the battery is 80%, I put it in my bag. After 1h, I take my phone out and I found that my phone was very very HOT, and the battery went down to 10%! (normally my phone just drop 1-2% in idle mode)
After that, I pull out the battery and put it in agn. (I guess the phone turned on automatically, but I dint noticed bout it) After few hour, I tried to turn on my phone, and the LED showing red colour and keep blinking..I couldnt turn on my phone.
Now, I cannot recharge it when the phone is off, the LED din't blinking anymore.
I have tried to recharge my phone with charger, but it failed..I have tried to connect it to the pc too ..but it failed as well..
Anyway to fix this problem? Thanks.
Sorry for my bad english..
try get new battery maybe
I had a very similiar problem. My phone had been discharging battery in 3 hours from 100% to 1%. Once, the battery discharged completely and I wasn't able to recharge it, so I decided to buy a second battery. In my case it didn't help - the other battery was discharging exactly like the original one.
As I had a 2-year warranty, I returned my phone to the shop and guess what?
They replaced a mainboard in my phone (for free of course). Now everything is ok.

You try connect your phone to charger and charge more. Sometimes if your battery is recharged may not be detected for 5-30 minutes
Hey everyone. I was hoping that somebody could help me out with an issue that has just happened..Every night i plug my xperia tl into a wall charger, and turn it off. then i usually turn it back on when i wake up in the morning. This morning however, my phone wouldnt turn on. I unplugged it, then tried turning it on but still no luck. I plugged the phone back in and it turned the screen on showing the batter had 0%. I waited a few minutes then turned it on, and it worked, but i had like 1% battery. Basically i had my phone off all night, plugged into a charger and i woke up and the battery was dead. I've tried restarting it thinking it was a battery calibration error and that it might reset it but it still had a dead battery. Also when i restart my phone it usually resets the battery usage chart but it wont reset. Also on the graph it shows a sudden drain of the battery. the battery was at like 30% then went right to 0%..anyone else have this issue? And could anyone tell me how to fix it?? Thanks!
Okay, a little but later i tried unplugging my phone and restarting it again. When i turned it back on i saw a spike in the battery. It jumped from 40% to 55%...then when i plugged it back in it went back down to 40%...is there something wrong with the batter calibration? I just cant figure it out..
Another possibility is that the battery is damaged. Despite the charger being off at the wall, there is still a residual current. Connecting anything to an off socket for has always carried a risk, it's how many fires start
The phone actually warns you of this, think about the green message that says also unplug your charger from the wall.
I hope I'm wrong and it is just calibration error. Good job it's a tl with removable battery.
Should be able to get sorted under warranty though if it's not unlocked just say it wouldn't turn on.

TL doesn't have a removable battery.
I am also having issues w/ my battery draining very quickly after little to no use. when i check the battery usage it says the ebay app is using most of the charge but I never even had it open (I FC it), and now its saying the screen is using 54% of the battery even though the screen was turned off. whats the deal?
how to properly recalibrate OnePlus 3t battery to avoid phone switching off at 20-30℅?

Your phone starts to shut off at 20-30%?
yep
sounds like a defective battery.
I've gone from 100-0 a few times and it's never shut down before 0.
Try this after wiping cache only in recovery mode:
After phone turns off, try to turn it on and see if red writing appears, telling you that your phone doesn't have enough battery. After that, charge your phone up to 100% and leave it at that level still connected to the charger, for 10 minutes. Then use up the battery normally. Repeat until phone shuts off at 0%.
This might be a little late for your question, but I just want to share my experience here.
Recently, my phone kept turning itself off at a little below 30%. If I tried to turn it on immediately, it showed the red low battery alert. If I charged it for a few minutes and turned it on, the battery would show 30%+. That proved it had not suddenly dropped to zero and turned itself off, as I understood a defective battery would.
I checked the Net, and it seemed that lots of people have the same problem as mine. On top of the recommendations were to replace the battery and a factory reset.
With the info I gathered, I decided to try battery calibration, and installed this app (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&hl=en).
I restarted the phone three times before running the app (idea from an OP discussion). As instructed by the developer, I let the phone continue charging even when capacity reached 100% (orange container on top). In my first try, I only waited for the orange container below to fill to the max, then started calibration (even when the pop-up message was telling me it's still early). That was a mistake. After that, the phone started dying at a little below 40%. In my next try, I let the charging continue even when the orange container at the bottom showed full, until the app notified me it was ready for calibration. I calibrated, and my phone's battery is fine again.
Hello, lately I've been having some battery drainage issues with my Huawei Ascend P7.
For some reason it drains really quickly (sometimes even when the screen is turned off). Sometimes my battery jumps from 40%+ to 15% and when I plug in the charger, it jumps back to 30%+ really fast.
My phone is rooted, I'm using Doze and Greenify to save some of the battery when the screen is turned off and I also have "Screen power saving" option turned on.
I have taken some screenshots of the battery usage and one of my phone's specifications.
Does someone know what might be wrong with my phone or could there be something wrong with the battery all of a sudden?
Did you try to reinstall Android new?
Or at first a factory reset?

I flashed B852 package's recovery and boot. Then rebooted to recovery mode, wiped data and cache, then rebooted to install mode and installed B852 ROM (dload/UPDATE.APP).
The phone turns on fine, but the battery percentage just drops so quickly and once it even shut off when it was at 60%. When I tried to boot it back up it said it was outta battery.
And one time when my phone turned off and wouldn't turn back on, I plugged in the charger and it told me the phone still had 32% battery. I turned on the phone, unplugged the charger and it shut off in a minute or two. When I plugged the charger back in, it still told me I had 30%+ battery left.
I think the problems began when I flashed https://forum.xda-developers.com/as.../kernel-huawei-ascend-p6s-p7-k-tuned-t3355223 kernel. But I installed a clean B852 ROM and the problem still persists.
Thats really strange, but this kernel is not the problem.
I also have a P7-L10 B852 and using this kernel without any problem...
But right after installing this kernel I also had some strange problems...
Sometime my phone rebooted it self or if it was locked and I pressed the power button to wake it up, it just stayed black and it got really hot...
I don't know what py phone did at this moment because if you are looking at the battery info in settings, it says my phone just was turned off and even lost battery but it wasn't really off...
My solution was a clean install (erasing and flashing every single image and after that 3-button-method)
After that boot up your phone
Now shut it downs install the kernel again
Boot up
Shut downs
(Maybe flash original boot.img
Boot up
Shut down)
Install kernel again
Boot up
I'm using this kernel for more then a half year now and I don't face any problems anymore...
I think the battery itself was the problem. I removed the back cover, removed the battery and cleaned the connector pins with alcohol. When I turned the phone back on about 30 minutes later, under "Power saving" smart power plan option shows me the phone will last for 11 h 30 min at 83% (WiFi turned on), when it used to be like 2-4 hours at 90%. I'll keep monitoring for a while to see if the problem is truly gone.
Thanks for your help.
//edit1: Never mind, I tried playing with the CPU voltages and it froze, so I turned it off. Turned it back on and the problem was back. It jumped down from 80% to 14% and in a minute or two, the battery died. When I booted it into recovery, TWRP says I still have 34% left. So I rebooted into system, it showed me I did have 34% left, but it turned off. Going to try your advice now.
//edit2: Got it to work properly again. Hopefully I won't touch something that will mess it up again.
Maybe your battery itself is the problem but to proof that you will need a second P7 to change batteries of them...
But such extrem battery-problems I have never faced...
You could send it to Huawei support, maybe they will say you if your battery is damaged...
So you could buy a new one and change it
Have you tried calibrating your battery?
I don't think it's a calibration problem
But if you want you could try it...
Charge your phone to 100%
Now delete the batterystats.bin at /data/system
Reboot your phone
Use your phone normally and let it discharge right before it's shutting down it self (3% I think)
Now charge it again to 100%
While charging your phone you should not touch it or unplug the charger
Last night I went to sleep with the battery being at 90%+, woke up to my phone being dead (the alarm didn't go off).
Tried turning it on, it showed me I had 50%+ battery, but it turned off shortly after. I plugged the charger in, and it said I have 58%.
And yes, I have tried calibrating my battery. But I can try doing it again when I get back home from work tonight.
//edit: Battery calibration didn't help. I'll just have to wait until the new battery arrives. Or should I try locking the bootloader?
Why you want locking your bootloader?
Do you want to send it to the support
If you already bought a new battery, wait for it and put it in
Seems that the battery itself was the issue after all. After putting in the new battery, everything seems to be back to normal.
