If Anyone can help me I'll really appreciate the tips.
First, My Z1 is completely stock, Android 4.4.4 build 157.
After no apparent reason the following issues started:
1- After depleting the battery, the phone just didn´t charged and a red light blinked 3 times. Solved this out of nowhere, it charged and was running ok
2- when charging the phone while it was on, when the capacity reached 96% the screen forced to be on, even if I hit the off button, it turned back on. I can charge it without a problem with the phone off.
3- If I turn the phone off another problem arises, he starts to boot, shows the Sony logo, turns off, and again, shows the Sony logo.... indefinitely!
Before this issue I was getting around 4h to 5h30min of screen, now I get around 2h.
What I tried to do:
- Hard Reset using the hardware button, didn´t do anything.
- Hard Reset using recovery mode (safe mode), deleted all apps and files from the phone... didn´t change anything.
I Would Like to remain stock, but if the only solution is to root, I don´t mind.
I had all the samsung S line (expect S5) and I've rooted and installed custom rooms in all of them, but in this one, the updates are fast and stable, that's the reason to prefer to stay stock.
STILL SAME ISSUES
I´ve rooted the phone, intalled recovery and wiped the phone... Problem rermains.
Installed a Costum rom... Didn´t solved my issues.
Can someone help?
1. The red lights, they blink when you plug the charger because you have totally drained your battery, so it will blink until you have the minimum amount of power to turn the phone on.
2. Go to settings, dev options and see if "STAY AWAKE" is checked. Uncheck it.
3. Software or hardware issues?
Following my phone problems (while in stock when I turned off my phone it keeps boot looping into the sony logo and the screen stays turned on after 96%, now 90%, while recharging), I've installed the DstrikerZ1Kai rom (LB) and since the problems didn´t disapeer I want to go back to stock.
My question is how? Where's the stock unbranded rom? I've backup the TA files.
The option to stay awake while recharging was off, I've turned it on, 90% and over it turned on, now I've turned it off and will see what happens.
Thanx in advance.
I think you should restore stock firmware and restore TA , then send your phone to sony, i used the 157 update for 2 weeks it only had a battery drain issue.

I'm having a very strange issue with my SGS. I have ONE's 8.3 ROM and the device is functional. But, when i shut the phone down i can't turn it on. Every time I shut it down and then try to turn it on by pressing the power button, de loading circle image show up but a few seconds later the screen turns black, and cycle repeats forever.
The only way I am able to turn the phone on is to connect the usb data cable to the phone and an pc usb port where the phone has been connected before (any other port won't do), afterwards the battery starts to charge (even if full) and I can turn the freaking phone on.
Things i've tried:
Changed ROMs (CM7, MIUI, One), changed Kernels, wiped battery stats
Please help me as this is a very strange problem.
PS: is my phone is in that infinite cycle, i can enter in download mode but not in recovery
If you can enter download mode then try flashing a stock ROM via Odin.
i already try it and have the same problem with stock rom
I think your proximity sensor is not working anymore.
A friend of mine got a similar problem.
His phone won't wake up after having a call.
He only was able to turn it on by connecting it with USB or AC.
I also think you have to send it in for repair.
I'm sorry mate, but that's my solution
Well, maybe someone got a better one.
but my sensor its working perfectly i think inst it... :/
Hi,
So... After flashing 4.2.2 everything was going great since this Monday... i spotted that my battery level was changing like a freak (on Excelsus 4.2) and whenever i wanted to plug in my charger to phone it didn't show the charging icon, but on phone turned off it showed but level wasn't rising... So i wanted to flash system backup, but then i got softbrick... I couldn't even get to recovery anymore, so next day i flashed .253 but it didn't change anything. I tried also to flash .423 again but it also nothing changed. And today, after recording some video, phone went dead, so i thought that i'll be able to charge it, but no. Whenever i want to turn on phone, it vibrates and nothing more happens, when i plug it to the charger, the red led light lights, sony logo appears, phone turns off and it loops... Any solutions? I can barely flash anything thru flashtool, but it also does nothing. Will I be able to send it as warranty repair or it may be voided? (i unlocked bootloader, but now it's locked)
I attach a screenie from yesterday, where you can see that battery level went insane and in addition it didn't want to go higher than 58-60%
Regards and thanks in advance,
Bairei
Have you tried anything from this thread?

Somehow I've managed to boot my phone. But the weirdest part is, that it had only 7% battery while the system launched. Now it's charging and hope it won't have any difficulties with charging or battery level.

Now the battery level is changing like insane, and phone doesn't seem to charge... While i was removing the bloatware via Root Explorer, the phone turned off, and when i turned it on, the battery level was changing, like earlier...
Plus, the led light while charging phone on or off doesn't light, also when i connect it to usb (but it works, when i launch phone)...
I have the I9000 . Until this morning I haven't had any problems with my phone. I was on C-ROM KK 5.8 (not that it affects my problem) and last night I left my phone to recharge. This morning I've unplugged my phone from the wall charger and made a reboot (my morning routine). Strange thing happened. The phone went into the phone off connected to wall charger screen mode but showing that the battery is empty. I took my battery out and now every time I place it back in my phone, the screen goes on showing empty battery or it's checking for battery level, without even touching any buttons. If I try to go from that screen to make my phone boot using the power button it does not react. I can't go in recovery mode , only I can go into Download Mode from that screen. I went back to 2.3.6 JVU using Odin and rooted it, phone booted fine. Now the thing is : When I am turning off my phone the phone keeps doing that battery screen problem. It turns screen on, acts like it's in a wall charger or it's checking for battery level or something and keep showing me an empty battery for a second then the screen goes off and back on again and only way to make my phone usable is to flash using Odin , the 2.3.6 stock ROM again and not take my battery out. If I try to flash CM 11, it goes into a recovery loop (because it's changing partitions sizes and the recovery version) and I have to take my battery out and it does it again. If I turn my phone off, my phone does it again and only way to boot it is to flash something from Odin so it forces it to boot.
Please Help ! What could be the problem and it's there a way to fix it?
Edit: I've been using my phone for an hour with on the Stock 2.3.6 and the battery level dropped just a bit . So The battery is not draining completely, and that fast. Also I've tried with a different battery and the problem persists. And my battery works just fine on a friend's GT-I9000. I've also successfully flashed Mackay CM9 2014 1.7, the situation didn't change. Also tried with Samsung 2.3.6 JW4

Two questions for clarification:
-Do the symptoms differ depending on whether you run stock or custom ROM? Or symptoms are 100% identical?
-If you shutdown your phone, keep the battery in position and do not connect the phone to the charger, it still shows the battery-crazy stuff? Because that would lead me to believe it is a hardware thing....
If there is a difference between stock & custom:
Maybe the hardware is dealt with differently between stock & custom ROMs making it look different, but I am not sure about that. You could try whether CM7 has the problem as well, as that one had a kernel that was much closer to stock.

Thank you for replying.
1. it's 100% identical on stock and custom ROMs only the battery icon shape is changed but the problem is the same.
2. The screen turns on by itself, without being plugged to anything.
3. Just tried CM7 and it's the same.
This is what is displayed when I put the battery and the phone is turned off, without being connected to anything. The picture is an example, found on the net, I don't have a camera to take a photo of my phone but the image shows exactly what I see for a second then it turns the screen off and back on forever, phone reacts only to download mode.

I'm afraid this may be hardware related if the symptoms occur on different types of ROMs. The charging animation with screen off is triggered by the charging hardware of the phone, which thus seems to give wrong signals...

Thank you for your help and clearing it for me that it is not a software issue. Guess you are right it's a hardware problem probably caused by the wall charger, after 2 years of usage I think it starts to break and "took something from the phone with it as a heads up" . I have to make a visit to the "phone doctor".
Lately when i upgraded to 4.4.4 i noticed this annoying , disturbing problem with my battery . My moto X is stock, no root yet. First it went up and down spontaneously, like really crazy, while charging it appear to be at 65% while previously it was at 73% then i unplugged and plugged in again then it went to 73% again and didn't went fully charge, i have to turn off.
Any suggestions how to fix this ? btw i don't want to void the warranty though cause i want to return it to motorola for exchange when i get back there next summer. Many tks
Do a Full Battery Drain
Use your phone's battery till the point of phone shuting down.
Even after that try starting phone, as much times you can see the moto's boot logo.
After one point, the phone won't even show start screen, nor vibrate and may flash a green LED from its speaker.
Now connect your charger and charge your battery keeping your phone switched off, for about four hours.
And then check, how it works

Tried it before i posted this !!! Still didn't work
Should i wipe cache partition ?
Still cant fix it, please help
I've been having a similar problem with 4.4.4... This article helped me out http://www.androidpit.com/how-to-calibrate-the-battery-on-your-android-device but luckily I'm rooted so it was far easier to fix the problem. Good luck! Method number 2 looks promising for non-root users. Not sure about method 1 though.
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.
