Battery is acting weird - Galaxy Note5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Was on my note 5 with airplane mode on and on wifi. Was at 8 percent. I put it down for a moment to get my charger. I plug it in and when I look at the screen it says 0% and shuts off. It charged to 30% and said 2 minutes remaining which is odd. I leave for 2 mins to see what I'll do and now it's at 58 mins remaining.
It's a launch note 5 from Verizon wireless and its worked okay up to now. Idk what's going on. Phone is not rooted or anything

Battery Issues!!

Ok this has been happening to me for awhile and i just want to know is this is "normal" or there is something wrong:
Lets say that my phone's battery is under %15 so i plug my cell to charge it....right? so now it has been plugged for a couple of hours and it show that is charging but very slow...and i have to wait like 8 hours to fully charge....but if i reboot my phone let say within 2 hours of charging after it reboot it shows that the battery is fully charge....is this normal?
doubt its normal but mine does the same. Charges for hours and hours but wont go past 85% but with a reboot 100% Same as if I charge it for like 30mins then reboot guess what full charge.
I had this problem at one time, it turned out I had the overclocking set to 528 at all times and this was killing the battery, even when charging. If you have this on, try turning it off. After that it was fine for me

Battery dies at 30 percent

Im having some bad battery problems lately, namely the phone suddenly dying at aprox. 30 percent. sometimes after turning it back on it shows about 15 percent of battery left, then dies again. Fully charging the phone then fully draining it seems not to have solved it til now, I really need some help now! Thanks guys

Found this fix online, see if it works.
Option 2: (No Root) Physical Battery Calibration This option is also very simple, but at the same time, a little more time consuming. If you have a rooted device, Option 1 is definitely the way to go. However, if you don’t know what “root” means, stick with Option 2 and go check out the root section of Android Authority.
Turn your phone on and charge it for 8 hours or more.
Unplug the charger.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug the charger.
Turn on the phone and wait 2 minutes.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug, turn it on and use as normal. Your battery life should now be a lot better.

phone charges painfully slow

I was under the impression the charging capabilities of this phone were insane? My note 4 is charging very slow even with the phone off. Ive toggled the Fast Charge on and off (battery page in settings) and regardless of what i chose its very slow. I think my Note 3 charged faster than this. Is something wrong with my charger or my phone? Should i echange it for another?
Exchange it. With the included charger mine charges in about an hour.

The way fast charge works is with wall adapter and cable that came with phone and screen off. Another way is phone off. Takes a bit over an hour when phone dead
NOTE 4
Looks like I'll exhange it then, cause with the phone off, it took about an hour to go from 25% to 38%. Its strange cause my note 3 was usable while using GPS, and phone connected to car charger, not even a 2.1amp one and it would charge quickly. Note 4, actually went from 38% to 52% in about 3 and a half hours the same way
Mine is the opposite, charges fast and and drains fast. When I unplug it will go from 100% to 95% in 5 minutes with no use and screen off. I tried several battery app with no success to fix the problem.

Fast charge will only work screen off. If u using GPS then phone is awake and u get slow charge
Also make sure fast charge is clicked on.
NOTE 4
Did you take off the plastic stickers from the charger? Mine started fast charging after I did that. I think it was covering part of the connection somewhere.
I hope u connected to ac and not USB check battery in settings make sure it says charging ad and not charging usb
Yes mine says it is charging via AC. I havent removed the plastic from the charger, ill try it. The weird part is, last night i had 5 percent battery. At around 2:30 i turned off the phone and connected to the charger. I wake up around 9:30, a whole 7 hours later, and the phone only charged up to 89%. It takes 7 hours to not even charge full percent? Is that normal? Granted, if i turned off the phone or even had it on, my Note 3 charged within 2 hours or less even from dead. So i should just exhange the phone right?

Bad phone
NOTE 4

Not able to calibrate battery

I've had this phone for 2 years and I m sure the battery is almost good as dead.
I get around 3 hours of SOT with airplane mode on and WiFi only. I am having trouble getting the battery to recalibrate. I charged the phone all the way to 100 then I let it stay at a 100 for half hour then I pull the plug. When I restart the phone the battery shows at 82-83 percent. Then I recharge it all the way to 100 again. I keep doing this until it stays at 100 after pulling plug.
Can anyone tell me whats going on here?

Mi Mix Battery Stuck at 91% and died so quickly

So I have this Mi Mix for 2 years now, somehow I cant get my miui 7 to the newest oreo miui 10. So I flashed my phone to miui 10, I lost all my data.
Then everything seems normal for 3 days, then I noticed my battery somehow stuck at 91% not going down or up even when I charged it.
So I searched how to recalibrate phone, it says to drain all the way to 0% then charge it back to 100%
so I drain it to "0%" (while it still says 91%), then the phone died.
So I charge my phone and it still says 91%, so I waited for 4 hours for the phone to charge.
When I turn on my phone, it still says 91% and after 15 minutes of use, it turned off and wont turn on just like its out of battery.
So I charged it back, and same thing happened. every 15 minutes after plug off the phone died.
Help !
Have you tried deleting batterystats.bin?
What voltage app are reporting(like ampere)?
doesn't all that facts pointing to "new battery"?
