Help with charging issue.

My zip has been doing this weird thing for a week now and I have no idea what its about. Has anyone experienced this before?
When my zios Battery dies I plug it in and come back in a while try to turn it on and it won't start but the led just flashes red. The only way it will start is if I unplug it the start it. Also this week my phone will say its charging without being plugged in... charging light and all. One last thing the battery display gets stuck and displays 100 all day.
What could be causing this? Thanks for any help!

bad battery

Try recalibrating your battery. If that doesn't solve it then a new battery would be the way to go. You can find them for cheap online

Could you post a link to the instructions on how to do this?

Factory reset and a stock restore fixed it

Weird battery problem.

Hi, since yesterday night (I always charge my phone at night) I experienced a weird battery issue. When I plugged off the charger the battery looked like it was still charging. I went in settings > system info > status and it showed "Charging (AC)" then "Not charging" (this two messages kept switching for 10 minutes or more). I also looked to mAh and it was like 5000+ mAh. My battery is the original Samsung 3.7V 2500mAh. I get this problem with both original AC charger and pc USB cable.
Yeah, I also tried wiping battery stats following the steps.

try cleaning the usb port.

I don't want to damage it.. how can I clean it safely?

Cleaned the USB port using a toothpik and pressurized air but still getting that problem.
In the image (sorry for italian language) it says overvoltage after a few seconds I plugged off the charger.
Add: My phone was plugged off, but in the stats tab it said that my phone was plugged in with AC.

so does it say changing even when the charger is not in?

Yes

Update: today I tried my friend's battery and it didn't give any problems, so I think my battery is damaged.
I'm still wondering how (and why) could this happen.

Update: I cleaned the USB port with a toothpik and a hairdrier (sorry if not typed correctly) and now seems to work properly, will let the forum know if not

Phone Acting weirdly - Flickering, Battery issues, Random Restart

I keep shifting from rom to rom but never had a problem. Recently after I shifted to Utacka's PA I have been having issues with the phone. Sometimes the battery charge drops to zero suddenly. Sometimes the phone screen flickers with bands across the screen and sometimes it just restarts on it's own. Even after shifting to Alliance's JB i get the similar issues. PLEASE HELP

Pullout the battery, is it bloated? Download betterbatterystats and check for what's using the battery most at these times, first place to start in guess.

Time to say goodbye to your battery and buy a new one

The battery is a little fatter in the centre. I just hope its a battery issue and not some corrupt motherboard..

Does your phone think its charging even when not plugged in. If so it's your USB charge flex board. It would show as battery plummeting to zero charge indicator flashing on off and in settings about phone status it would switch from charging to disconnected

how long you have left it on the charger?
just connect a charger to a phone, and leave it for a while, it will wake up...

I charge it overnight, no use, its weird, maybe I'll send to service center.

Does the note 2 have the same size of battery? If yes you could try that only if it's the same

Not same, tomorrow I'll try buy a new battery first if its ok if still not then to service center

One such incident was reported elsewhere in the forum. The phone won't wake up or recovery mode. But the phone was able to go into download mode. So the guy flashed gb rom thru pc Odin.

I bought a desktop charger and charge the battery first, its all ok now, seems my note have problem if battery completely depleted so cant charge with the phone directly, now I can charge the phone directly as long as battery is at least 1% .

Battery getting worse.

I feel like my battery keeps getting worse and worse. Used to last me a day and a half and now only about a day.

Hey mate, sorry to hear you are getting worse battery life. Are you using anything from your normal? Check out my guide and see if anything helps. Below are my stats currently. I can only see you still have your alarm on, this can cause a slight lose.
Mine hasn't ever lasted as long as your day and a half, maybe it is just leveling out? A few days ago I recalibrated my battery, maybe that would help?

Try shutting it off ( hold the off button on right side) the turning it back on . Reboot, I had an unexplained battery issue and this fixed it, I can get 3-4 days now.

Any update @gainstatom?

My battery is either good or bad. Right now it's fine and going good. But sometimes I think something makes my battery worse. I will keep updating with screenshot. I think 8% for only minute on screen time is not that good.

Yeah that's great! You can install better battery stats here on xda to see if you are getting any wake locks etc. Greenify plus xposed will do this also, but bbs has more info

I had a battery problem similar to yours not long ago. One of the things that was running it down was in Settings> Wi-Fi> Always allow scanning. The phone would scan for Wi-Fi signal even when Wi-Fi was turned off. Unchecking that box helped a lot.
I also used a battery calibration app that clears the battery stats and that has pretty well fixed the problem.
