So I seem to have a strange problem; my phone seems to be unable to charge my battery beyond let's say 10%. For the first couple of minute when I charge the phone via a usb connection with my pc; it displays a battery filled about 5% accoumpanied by a yellow triangle and a black exclamation mark in the triangle. Then after some times of leaving it in the pc; it does show the original battery screen, a battery filled up to about 10% with five black/grey dots underneath it, and one-by-one these dots light up.
I am on a rooted xxla4 rom with the accompanying kernel..... (I can't perform a "wipe battery stats from this CWM version" and I would like to stay on this rom, because it at least a bit like the stock rom, since I don't know whether with this battery situation I will ever get enough battery to install the stock rom again with odin 3.04 )
**Originally I was a while on Asylum 10.1, but then I tried out Parandroid 2.99 beta and to improve the performance I installed Rhythum kernel, when I was a Asylum about two days ago and everthing still worked properly I had about 7 hours of battery life and my phone charged (with the wall charger) to about 100% in three hours. I can't imagine a battery to break within 72 hours and I also can't imagine Rhythum kernel or Parandroid to have caused this, but if I am wrong PLEASE CORRECT ME.
Hi,
If i were you, i'd flash a kernel that supports remove battery stats and remove them.
If that doesn't work, you could try to flash your rom again, but this one is tricky...
because your phone doesn't charge further then 10%.
I don't know about the rom you said, but use a rom without aroma to be sure the least battery is drained...
I hope this will help you.
Good luck.
Cheers,
Kreekhoorn
**Not to forget to keep your phone into the charger (wallcharger) while flashing, just to save battery.
Do a battery calibration using apps in the store, may be the 10% is 100%
Sent from my GT-N7000 using xda app-developers app
Well, the 10%, regretfully isn't a 100%, because the phone kicks me out after about 5 minutes, because it says the battery is empty. I also can't use the battery calibration, because these apps say the phone isn't fully charged so they close.....
(flashing a kernel is possible, but because I can't get into the phone anymore; the battery now remains dead. It seems I am quite cornered now)
**But do you guys think this problem is purely battery related or do you think the phone itself is broken, I mean if just the battery is broken, I might just get a new one, but I don't want to buy a battery to find out the phone itself is actually broken....:crying:
I would first try a different battery
I will need to buy one either way, since I don't own a spare battery and don't know anyone with a spare battery...
**Recently I tried to flash Asylum back on my Note, because it had a kernel which is able to remove the battery stats, but Mobile ODIN got stuck at about 12% of flashing the rom-> so now when I put the phone into the charger, it does not get beyond the picture of the battery with the loading sign within; does this mean the phone is broken? And are you still able to charge although the phone's UI does not show the battery is charging....(So does the battery still charge without the loading interface on the phone?)
->Also when buying a new battery do they at least come a bit pre-charged or are they sold completely empty? Does anyone know anything about this?
Keep the charger plugged in with the phone off for a couple of hours. Download a good custom rom. Boot into recovery and most uab storage. Copy the rom on to your phone. Perform all wipes and installation the new rom.
The new battery comes with a little charge in it.
Thanks for the advice, I have bought a new battery. It is shipping to me; I hope this will resolve my problems (key will be whether the battery is already charged a bit, because I don't know if it will charge in my phone. Since I don't have a rom installed (mobile odin seems to have deleted my rom, but did not continue to install the new rom.....)) Fingers crossed!
(I also kept the charger in the phone some time, but it just does not want to charge; in the very few times I can enter download mode, I get the "can't download battery is too low" message)
->I will let let you guys know if something changes!
There are external chargers which are pretty cheap. This will help in worst case scenario. Anyways good luck mate
New Battery just charges 3% in one hour
So I recieved my new battery, and flashed a new rom, but I seem to have an other strange problem; I let the phone charge for about an hour now, and the battery just went up by 3 percent. Has anyone else seen this kind of behaviour with a new battery (the store from which I bought the battery said it was an original battery -> http://www.mobilesupplies.nl/battery-samsung-galaxy-note-n7000-eb615268vu-p-13527.html (link to the battery I bought))
->To put this in perspective the battery I previously had (which is apparantly broke now) charged to 100% from 0% in just 3 hours.....
try a few charging cycles and then check the charging time
This probably is a bad question, but I suppose it is better to ask than just to assume; does anyone know whether clearing my battery stats will improve the rate my phone charges my battery? I assume the phone remembers the battery stats taken from my previous battery, which might influence its usage of the new battery?
I don't think so as it's regarded useless clearing battery stats in recovery.. That's why it has been removed from the newer version of Cwm recoveries.
Any how charging the battery to 100% resets that file
The same problems seems to also pop-up with this new battery, I suppose there is nothing else left to do except for sending the phone to the repair center.
->The phone does show something is plugged in, it does detect the usb cable connected to the wall charger which is consequently connected to the power output in the wall. The image it shows (BASED ON THE CHARGE LEFT IN THE BATTERY, so it does not show anything when the battery is empty) is a battery with a yellow triangle and a black exclamation mark inside the yellow triangle (the same icon I got with my old battery)
The battery also does not get hot neither does the phone in the slightest bit; and in my memory, before this problem occured, I remembered the phone getting at least a little bit more warm.
I suppose now all that probably remains is for the Samsung service center to either check the charging circuits and try to fix those OR replace the entire motherboard (which what I assume they will do). I just hope they are not going to make up some excuse about the garanty, because I have always treated my phone with the utmost care....
may be its just the USB module that needs changing.. Samsung should do it.
Well i also juat got a new battery this week. I went for the samsungs spare rather than the mugen extended or the gold battery.
My old battery got swollen and its because of my fault, i used to keep it on charge throuhout night to get 100% in the morning but i was surprised coz despite being in bad shape it was giving me a goos battery time. But after a discussion here on xda i got a new battery and i am happy now coz its giving me 30% more time plus i got extra power now

I have the same problem. Does any one have a fix?
When you put your micro usb cable inside your note's usb port, does it wiggle? If so there is nothing else you can do, but to sent your phone to Samsung for warranty. They will fix the usb port and maybe even replace the motherboard. And remember don't wiggle aroubd your phone when it is on the charger or usb plug next time....
Hi,
So I've had my hd7 from when it first came out and have had no major issues with it till this one came about.
Basically when i go to charge it, it will charge up to a maximum of 30% if that before quickly draining itself, i've tried a replacement battery and it does the exact same with that one.
Could it be perhaps the charging socket as I have tried multiple chargers with my phone.
do several charge cycles...

is the battery curved at the sides? "pillow shaped", you know damaged by aging?
if not, the replacement could be defective... possible, but not 100%, try the charge cycles to see what happens...

Hi,
I received the ordered product couple of days back - New Samsung Battery EB575152LU for Galaxy S SL Plus i9001
I did plugged my cellphone to wall charger straight for more than 8 hours. Firstly, it could charge only to 60%+. I did a quick google to land upon a method of charging and discharging the new battery to extreme limits. I practiced. Unfortunately, it has been more than two days now. The battery is taking more than 10 hours to charge.
Problems -
The battery takes more than 10 hours to charge to 60%+
It doesn't charge beyond 70%+. The phone is shutdown and charging takes place again from 0%.
This is quite frustrating considering it's very new battery I had ordered. I have already tried different chargers and USB cables. All in vain. I have read numerous threads and posts, and did like it all said. None of them has helped me.
Please help me.
Phone details :
Slimbean (4.2.2 build 6)

Thanks in advance.
not sure if this will work as it could be a faulty battery, but have you tried clearing battery states from cwm recovery
Battery won't charge beyond 0%
People,
I have tried the new charger and new battery. The phone is not charging beyond 0%. The area around the Camera gets damn hot. Might it be a ROM issue? A bug or something?
I used to run Slimbean very smooth, until I faced this problem.
I researched a lot, and I have tried many things. But this frustrating problem still persists.
I hate to restore the phone to stock ROM.
If it's a hardware failure, how can I be sure of it?
Need urgent help.
Clarification

Battery drawing less current
Hello,
I have bought a new battery. I tried changing chargers and wires. However, I installed a widget and got to know my battery draws only 233ma current from the mains as well as USB charging.
Is it the normal stats considering genuine charger comes with 0.7~1 A O/P ? I believe this is definitely less than the normal current flow.
How could I reinstate the normal flow?
Is there a way to reconfigure the circuit as pointed out in above reply?
Could please point out the hardware failure? How can I be certain of it?
Please help. I'm in deep need of it.
Symptoms:
Area near the camera gets damn hot. (Temp: 70~80 deg cel)
Battery does show progressive charging. It takes more than 15 mins to increase the charge by 1%. This is definitely due to low current flowing.
Above of all, this is degrading my battery life. Thanks in advance
Hi, ever since upgrading my unlocked HTC M7 phone to 5.02 Lollipop, I have been having major issues with charging my phone (among many other issues). My battery will sporadically allow me to charge to 100% using the charger on some days and not at all on other days. I'll have the phone turned off and charging over night for 7+ hours and I will only get 5% total charge. If I reboot multiple times then sometimes my battery charge will jump around. My battery life will drain extremely fast while in standby and I will watch the battery level drop while it is plugged in, as I'm doing right now. I'm not running any intensive apps and in fact have minimal apps installed on my phone. When I get 100% charge I can go an entire day on that charge.
I've tried disabling suspect apps, I've tried wiping the cache and I've tried the so-called battery calibration (vol up + vol up + power button, hold 2+ minutes which restarts phone multiple times). None of this has worked. Is there anything else I can do?
Is it possible to download the old kit Kat Rom from somewhere or is there a fix for this lollipop build? Is there another stable Rom that is very close to lollipop but with all the bugs fixed? I have a tonne of other bugs associated with updating to 5.02. My build number is: 7.17.1540.21
Thanks.
First of all this is the wrong thread. You should have posted in the "One (M7) Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting" thread. If you already tried the calibration, you might want to give Gsam Battery a go to see what is draining your battery. You can also try to do a factory reset. You mentioned you have problems with charging the phone. If none of the above mentioned work you might have a faulty battery that needs to be changed. Do you still have any warranty on the device? And if you want to revert back to KitKat you need to S-OFF the phone by using the Sunshine tool.
I have similar issues with my verizon one m7 but in my case calibration battery solve problems with charging but only for couple weeks. You try another charger and cable?

Dl a 5.1.1 rom , preferably a gpe based rom, use gsam like he said, and what I Also did, which I think helped with the sporadic charging behavior, I brought and Aukey 3 port quick charge 2.0 capable brick, along with a 5 pack of the USB cables, got both on sale on amazon for 5.99 each While I wasn't having your exact issues, I was having some of the same regarding charging. The phone would be plugged in sometimes, and decreasing In %, I almost couldn't use the dam phone while it was plugged in, when I first bought the phone a year and a half ago, it never did that. Also when I did get it to charge normally, it would take so long to get to 100%.... Was so frustrating. But the one thing that CLEARLY has helped is get an Aukey charging brick and the cables, but more so the charging brick.. Let me know I can link you, although I would think similar to.the Aukey would work.
Good Luck

I tried the factory reset a couple months ago and it didn't work. Unfortunately my phone is past the warranty - I've had it for 2years now. I used the stock battery monitor and it said the primary culprits were standby and WiFi. Does using the battery monitor for charging the phone while it is off make sense?I always turn the phone off at night while charging.
Any suggestions on a good 5.1.1 gpe Rom? Where is the best place to DL it? Or what is s-off and sunshine tool?
I popped in a different stock charger and cable and it seems to be working...for now. Thanks for that suggestion. Hopefully it is just the charger, though I'm a bit skeptical that is the issue.
Update: As of today, the 2nd charger has been working well. I'm a bit surprised this was/is the cause. I assumed a charger does or doesn't work.
As I thought, the new stock charger is no longer working properly. I am finding that my phone will not charge properly every now and then. No way to predict when or how to prevent it. I have bounced back to the old charger and that has actually worked a few times. In the 3 minutes it took me to post this, the battery has dropped 5% with it plugged into the wall. Just yesterday I had a full 100% charge and lasted the entire day.
Any other suggestions? I'm not the best at rooting so don't think I'll have time to do that. Been looking at new phones, but like this one vs what's currently out
Have a Note 8 that was draining the battery real fast all the sudden. It's on android 9. I would charge it to 100, let it sit with screen off and in about 30min. it was down 59%. This kept happening. One day it went down to 0% and didn't charge anymore. So I changed the battery. It did the same thing. Depleted too fast. When it went down to 0%, again phone would not turn on nor charge again. This is what I have gone thru so far with this phone:
Replaced the battery 3 times.
Replaced the charging port flex cable
Tried several Samsung chargers
Wipe data/factory reset X2
Wiped cache X2
No apps are on the phone.
Even with all that the batteries still drain quickly. If they go to 0%, phone won't charge again. Phone will not turn on and charge until I put a new battery replacement in it-only for it to drain fast.
The only thin I have not replaced was the logic board. Could this be a logic board issue or software issue?

To rule out it being a software/firmware problem update it if you can or if you can't update then downgrade but stay with the same bootloader version.. If it does it after doing that then it's 100 percent a hardware problem.
Both my wife and I have Verizon Note 8s. We received the June patch a few days ago and have experienced SEVERE battery drain. In the battery usage stats there is no application that seems to be causing the drain. We've not had these phones very long (maybe 16-18 mo) and believe this is absolutely related to the June 2020 security update. I'm not sure if this issue is specific to the Verizon version of the patch or if this would affect more Note 8s. I'm just trying to find proof that it was the update.
I am a tech so yes I did the repair myself. Just looking for a second opinion on this. I bought the batteries from amazon and had a good condition battery from an old Note 8 repair leftover.
However, I cannot do anything more as far as testing because I need to purchase another battery. That is the only way to get the phone back on because like I mentioned once the battery drains out phone doesn't charge anymore unless I put a new battery in. As long as I don't let the phone drain to 0% I can keep using it and charging it.
But for now to do any of the tests mentioned here I would need to get another battery first.

Some of the phones that would drain to 0 wouldn't charge again and Samsung was replacing the batteries in those ones but some people have been able to get them to charge again so if you have a wireless charger put the phone on BOTH the wireless charger AND the wired cable charger and leave it over night and it may or may not work but you have nothing to lose so..
Well I have found the issue and only issue. It was the logic board. The power IC chip is bad. After purchasing and connecting the new logic board everything on this note 8 is working perfectly. Battery charges, holds its charge like it supposed to. Battery drain is gone. And I can let the battery drain to 0% and charge it up again with no problem. So eventually, when I get the time, I will replace the power IC on the bad board. But for now, all is good.
Thanks to you all for your assistance.

What exactly do you mean when you say "put a new battery replacement in"? You mean that you have opened the phone and put in new batteries? How did you put it back together? It is supposed to be sealed, and many things can go wrong after opening the enclosure.

Instead of for someone typing out the answer to that just go to YouTube and search for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 battery replacement and you'll see the entire process!

My comment was not so much about the process, but about the result. Or shall I say consequences of the action? If one opens the seal, replaces the battery (not just once, but several times) and then complains about the battery not working normally is in my opinion a bit cheeky.
