Battery Problem

I have noticed in many roms which I tried.......our galaxy ace does not show correct battery %........when I put my ace for charging at 15-20% .......when I check after 5-10 mins battery jumps to directly 55-60%.....and when I remove charge battery drains suddenly to 25-30%.
And when I left my phone for charging for more than 30-40mins phone says that it is charged!!! Wtf
And experiencing sudden drain to 60-70%!
Can anyone help to improve that!!!

yesterday night while watching some movie for fun i slept and phone drained fully as player moves on to next video automatically..
after waking up charged phone for about 25 minutes and my phone was alive for 9 hours with some 10 texts and 15 min call
Man, if you wanna stay out of this inconsistent battery readings then just blindly charge your phone for more than 2 and half hours. Also use, "Battery Calibration" after full charge every week.

2 things the V8 update helped with

First is my 4g connection......I don't lose it at home like I did at all, not even once since the update.
Second, the dag gone battery won't die I have the extended, After using the phone all day yesterday and using my flashlight last night, almost for got the 7, 1 minute videos I made, this battery is at 73%. The stats are telling me I have been on battery for 21 hours, 27 minutes and 37 seconds. THATS AWESOME
I updated and for 2 days my battery ate at 15% an hour, then on day 3 everything reversed and like you my battery usage is amazing. I posted some screen in another thread, at the 12 hour mark I was still at 84% on a stock battery. When I went to bed this morning around 4 am I was still at 73%, that was nearly 21 hours of light to minimal usage. I was amazed.
As of this moment I have been up for about 4.5 hours and I am at 98% battery so 2% battery usage in 4.5 hours. Granted I have not really touched my phone but still that is amazing stand by drain. I think they fixed a memory leak in several of the apps that was causing drains. I am not one to be easily impressed but well played LG... well played.

This makes me want to update so bad but I hate to lose GV, CWM and Beats Audio
It makes you think... Either LG really screwed up and fixed a battery issue , or they did something amazing and made it 2x better.
Seems to be amazing took my phone off the charger at 7:30am used modestly all day, fell asleep and woke up at 1am the next morning and it still had 13% battery

I just completed everything yesterday, and my battery life was abysmal today. I really hope mine behaves like yours and is okay in a few days.
Well I got no recognizable improvement in battery or anything else. I am back on gingervolt until the next rom is made.

Wow... Second day and the battery life has definitely improved. Better than GV already.

Battery suddenly drops

Hey all.. Picked up a Verizon Moto X yesterday and am absolutely loving it. I did have a quick question concerning the battery and am trying to figure out if I need to take this one in and exchange it. Yesterday when I was using the phone out of the box it drained fairly quickly. When the battery hit about 18 percent I got a warning that the battery was getting low... less than 30 seconds later I was getting another warning that the battery was at 13 percent and another 30 second I was at 3 percent battery.. I plugged the phone in, charged it to 100 percent and chalked this up to just a weak charge out of the box.
After the phone was off the charger I played a game of dots, watched about 40 minutes of man of steel and went to bed at 86 percent battery. When I woke up 7 hours later battery had drained to 67 percent. I went about my day and wanted to see how the battery served me at work.
Same thing happened this evening where the battery hit about 18 percent and within a minute I was getting a 3 percent warning. I used the phone for about another four minutes and it died completely.
I'm not really complaining about battery life... All in all I had around 21 hours with 2 and a half hours screen on time. I did notice that Google services had the phone "awake" for almost 20 hours. I'm mostly concerned about the sudden drop in battery and was curious as to if anyone else has experienced it. I'm currently letting the phone charge powered off in hopes that it helps. Thanks in advance guys.

My phone does the same thing. The last 20% sucks. Just dies. Lol

Try doing a battery calibration. Check if there's any app sucking the battery that much.
My Moto X today kept 2h and 30 minutes on 1% battery (i've put it on charge before dying), and took like forever to get from 20% to that.
Maybe you got a defective unit.
No cuz it drops quickly to 1% but just like u that last 1% easily goes for half hour to hour. Idk my actual problem is it'll say 14% left then in 10 minutes 4% left!

Same here except I have the at&t version
I have the Rogers version and I've had it drop from ~25% to 15% pretty quickly. From 15% to 0 it lasts ok, but it has never stayed on 1 or 2 for very long. I've only gone through 3-4 charge cycles so far. Overall the battery life seems pretty good.
dsuctf which
While mine doesn't drop that quickly, I did go my first day with the phone for 18 hours, and then the next day in pretty much the same conditions it only lasted 11. Going to try again today and see if it does it again.

interesting. mine got to 3% last night and i got "nervous" and plugged it in. has anyone actually killed off the battery yet (shut the phone down)? seems like previous DROID phones would shutdown long before it got to 1%.
had the same issue for weeks. the fix: let phone die completely. then charge phone back up to 100%. I left the phone off while charging (not sure if it is necessary but I did it anyway to ensure that the phones software wasn't causing the phone to charge weird). Once i did this, the phone never dropped from 15 to 1% again and it also doesn't charge from 80% to 100% instantly like it used to.
I ended up taking the phone and exchanging it.. New phone did the same thing.. I let it die completely and charged it overnight while powered off.. Today it was prefect.. Actually have had to try to kill it. Also got my kit kat ota... Absolutely loving this phone. Thanks all!

note 5 battery life and estimated usage time problem

First of all Merry Christmas everybody , hi I recently bought a Samsung Galaxy Note 5 (920c) un dubai and I'm a little concerned about the battery life , I saw a video in YouTube from an android fan (wwjoshdew) and on his video he went to settings /battery and he had 87% and an estimated time of use of 23 hours !!! Yes 23 hours and in my case with a full charge my note 5 says that it will only last 10:30 hours ! Is this a software problem or is something with the battery? , I thought about doing a battery calibration but I'm afraid because it's a non removable battery
Afther couple charges you will also get more time .. if read carefuly on batt usage it depends on your settings etc.. Dont wory friend its normal..
