Phone charging Extremely slowly... How to diagnose ? Experts Respond plz - K3 Note Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

here's what happend
I have flashed Unofficial RR rom . It was charging regularly.
Then i flashed renice kernel.
Sometimes Phone was charging relatively slowly but then it fixes by itself .
Until recently it was occurring more and more.
NOW it charges verrrrry slowly 7 8 hours and not reaching 100%, still at 60%!!
So i decided to flash Ultimate kernel to see if anything happends..
no luck
I think somehow the kernal changed the charging voltage. or It may be that battery needs to be replaced..
How do i diagnose what the problem is ??
p.s. I have tried calibrating battery multiple times both by app and manually. Also tried multiple chargers and charging cable. Even tried to charge via pc.

Mr RR 5.8.3 is having very slow charging what can I do plz give me an answer....

If the rom was not charging above 60% you should just restart the phone with a charger on and it will just jump to a 100 it's not calibrated well calibration apps don't work

Same problem.....after the first charge after fresh flash....takes me around 10-12 hours to full charge even with a proper dock and cable.....if I use the device while charging then the charge gradually decreases...
Help plox....

I know that's the problem of the ROM I also experienced the same problem on that ROM change it to dot os with venom kernel 3 hour of screen on time while playing pubg mobile and if you want you can push it to 4to 5hour (venom kernel has built in fast charging 2 to 3 hour max from 0) if you didn't enable fast charging 4 hour max good luck

with charger in 100% charger out 97% recently

did not have this problem befor flashin jvs but now when im charging it indicates 100% battery and directly when i unplug it it goes down to 97 did not do this before flashin 2.3.5 and I even flashed 2.3.4 now! I managed to get 98 by disconnecting and connecting charger many times. Why?
I have darky's 10.2 Exrtreme or final - can't remember
I have the same problem. But even worse mine sometimes only charges to 60 or 65%. I can get a full charge after several unplugs and re-plug but it takes a while.
The big problem is once it fully charges it seems like the phone stops charging completely and then begins to drain out - should it not maintain the full charge even if left charging at full?
Any help please.
Thanks

my phone is using build jvq -not sure if that makes a difference. I am new to all of this. Had a friend help me with the flashing. Anyway I didnt think my issue was normal - its a pain because when I charge my phone overnight - I cant simply unplug and take it away with a full charge.
Any ideas how to rectify this?

I did some more reading. Apparently my problem is a bug with respect to SGS and gingerbread. Once the phone reaches full charge - it stops charging and even though its still plugged in. At this point the phone drains (presumably like normal depending on what you have running in background).
At this point the only fix is to flash back to froyo or I think charging the phone while powered off would work too. Not much of a fix but at least when I wake up in the morning its fully charged.
For others with the same problem as me see this thread:

Please help!!! Battery problem.

my problem is whenever i connect my phone to the charger in not more than 5minutes at most it signals that the battery is full. after i disconnect it, in less than 5minutes it says battery low. if i leave the phone on the charger overnight it can sustain half the day. the problem started wen i flashed the custom rom [PORT][ROM][2.3.6 XWKT7] ➣ Adrenaline™ ROM[Latest Update: 4/06/2012]. I have tried wiping battery stats so many times in so many different ways and consulted so many websites still cant find anything useful. any better solutions to this problem are welcome

And you believed that it is full charged already after charging for let's say 30minutes? Let it charge up to 3hrs. Then we can say that it is really full charged.

Yeap, you shoud uninstall andrenaline script if you installed that and test.
If not, unplug your battery for a minute, charge your phone for about 2 hours without turning on, then download on GPlay the app CPU Spy, closes all apps, unplug the charger and lock the screen, wait some hours without touch the phone. After that, run CPU Spy and check if "Deep Sleep" was used most time...
If not, you shoud try reflash your ROM, or try another ROM... or try another Battery...
Just ideas, I hope this help with something...

CM10.1 battery issues

Im a sucker for AOSP Android Its smooth and simple just the way i like things. The only thing that keeps me going back to a Sense ROM (namely Nik Project X Rebirth and ARHD), is a slight battery issues. To put it simply, it either takes an extremely and painfully slow time to charge my phone from even 60% - 100% (about 6 or 7 hours which, if Im not wrong, should be the normal full charge of an HTC Incredible S stock??). After a week or two, the battery just screws up entirely. It takes EVEN longer than 5 hours to charge up like 20% of battery. Furthermore, it stops charging at 60% as if the battery was full!! I know this is not an issue with my battery because as soon as I flash any other ROM (thats not CM10.1 related) the battery starts charging up again. Dirty flashing CM10.1 nor clean install of CM10.1 seems to work for me
Does anyone know what the problem is and a possible fix?
I understand that I probably should be placing this thread in CM10.1 threads. I have posted in CM10.1 by dla5244 thread as well as the Lacoste thread. Yet no one has even RESPONDED to this issue.

I had checked with HTC customer care.. they had asked me to discharge the battery completely, remove it for about 30 s and then charge using USB..
I performed the above steps but instead of switching on the phone, I kept it switched off while it was being charged..
What I noticed was the battery charging status jumped from 0 - 67% in 1 hour and then to 82% in next 1.5 hours.. post then it stayed there..
From what I deduce, it does not appear to be a software problem.. I am primarily facing with lots of ROM, AOKP, CM10.1, MIUI, Stock - Sabsa, Viper

[Q] [help needed] erratic battery levels on mi3w

I am facing a battery problem. whenever i reboot or boot into recovery, the battery level randomly falls down about 10 to 20 percent.. also, if i connect the charger after a discharge, the battery starts charging from 0 but when i boot the phone, sometimes it just charges up straight to 15 percent or 20 percent.. if i disconnect the charger and start using the phone, the battery starts discharging normally and continues till zero again (sometimes it jumps straight from 3 percent to zero).. dont understand whats going on..
actually this problem started after i flashed ivan's first build of the lollipop rom (using true dual boot).. at that time i thought its a bug.. but after that it started when i had only miui too..
please help..

Actually, let me tell you what happened yesterday.. I was using the phone, so the battery came down to 0 and the phone switched off.. I connected the charger, so the phone went started charging from 0 percent.. Fair enough.. But when i switched the phone on.. (Booted into android) the battery level went straight to 12 percent.. So, i disconnected the charger and was able to use the phone for some 15 minutes. After that, the battery fell down to 0 from 5 percent.. Then, i allowed the phone to charge for some time.. It reached the level of 64 percent. And then i deleted the batterystats.bin and rebooted.. The battery level went to 86 percent straight..
So what i suspect is.. I dont have a battery problem since if i loose charge after a reboot, i get that back during charging..
And i dont know why but this problem occurs more often when i boot into the recovery.. Any guesses why recovery is causing this ?

The same thing is happening to me too right now in cm13. So i reverted back to miui where the battery jump doesn't happen but while using normally battery discharge is erratic like it goes from 32 to 20 in a minute. This happens a lot more when charge is below 20 percent. while using normally when the battery is at 100, it goes to 80 after 1 hr of usage but 20-0 takes 10 minutes in cm13.
i have tried calibrating the battery many times to no improvement whatsoever.
As you said when the battery discharges completely the phone turns off. Now when i plug into the charger and boot it to cm13 the battery indicator shows 19 or 23 or some random number
Did you find any fix for this erratic behavior ?
- If you're using custom kernel, stop using it and revert to stock.
- Either dirty flash (to revert the kernel)+use/wait until the battery's ran out+charge it while turned off, OR clean flash without using custom kernel

Yes 2 days ago I wiped everything including internal storage and installed cm13
So you don't have this issue ? Which ROM are you on right now?
Somehow it feels like twrp is causing this cause whenever I boot to recovery there is a battery drop by 2-3 percent or suddenly the battery shows 60 or something like that instead of 30 or whatever the correct value is

I'm on AOKP currently, swtching from CM13 since I wanted to try it. I got the same problem seldomly, but that's because of custom kernel keep on borking the battery calibration.
If I were you, I'd started searching for a new battery, just in case it was dying out. If my memories serves me right, before I need to replaced my battery because of short bootloops, my battery's level also started to jump haphazardly without any reason.

Maybe my battery has become faulty but I still feel this is a software problem because since I moved from twrp 3.0.2-0 and cm13 to twrp 2.8.7.0 and aokp the battery jumps have become less frequent but they are still there.
If it was a software problem I think most people wouldn't notice as they won't use their phones till the battery discharges completely all the time.

I am facing a battery problem. whenever i reboot or boot into recovery, the battery level randomly falls down about 10 to 20 percent.. also, if i connect the charger after a discharge, the battery starts charging from 0 but when i boot the phone, sometimes it just charges up straight to 15 percent or 20 percent.. if i disconnect the charger and start using the phone, the battery starts discharging normally and continues till zero again (sometimes it jumps straight from 3 percent to zero).. dont understand whats going on..
actually this problem started after i flashed ivan's first build of the lollipop rom (using true dual boot).. at that time i thought its a bug.. but after that it started when i had only miui too..
please help..

bad news my friend, my mi3 started doing the same, a week later I was taking some pictures and then suddenly it started to bootloop or only boot to fastboot mode. The only solution was to replace the battery. I hope is not the same with your phone. Good Luck
Hmm.. But this thing started with me in just 6 months after buying the phone.. Also, the screen on time i get is more or less the same as others.. So i dont think so that my battery is bad.. I have tried calibrating it many times but no luck.. And for some reason, my battery always jumps from 13 percent to 10 percent directly :laugh:
having the same problem since i flashed MM roms. If the battery only left 10% , it will drained in minutes
Same problem with me.
I was having similar problems! Until later on I came to the conclusion that my phone was not getting charged correctly! I was and am using OEM charger! So charger problem was out of the question!
Then I thought that it might be the battery problem, since the phone is now 2 years old! I disassembled my phone out of curiosity to check the status of the battery, has it swelled or leaked! Turns out that the charging port was dead! The litmus dot over the the charging port had turned to pink, symbolizing that some water or moisture had entered in somehow! I went to the nearest Xiaomi Service Station and ordered for the part!
You too can check if this might have happened to your phone too!

pathetic battery

I am on Repulsa rom with mad max kernel. And the battery life is pathetic. From 100 to 20% there is no problem but as soon the battery goes below 20% it will literally go to zero in 10 sec and will shut down. It happens 9/10 times.. As soon as it goes below 20% it will shut down in few seconds.. This is not rom or kernel issue because this has happened with different rom and Kernel too.. If anyone can help it would be of great help..
Battery is badDegraded. common thing with phone batteries. Gotta get the battery replaced

Yep easily possible.
I dunno if this will be covered under warranty.. Also the phone is rooted

degraded battery is usually covered but you tripped knox when you installed twrp. so you may not be eligible for warranty

I dont have that much knowledge but i am unrooted and happened to me serveral times as my battery shut downs in 13 percents. I looked for a solution and my issue resolved. Hope if it can help you
Maybe its calibration issue
Maybe your phone thinks 20% is 0
Try using fully discharge your battery until it shutsdown then go to recovery mode and waste the juice until it turn off and dont even boot into recovery. Then charge full with power off and again discharge to 0. Again to 100 and see if problem solves.
If not then maybe issue is with battery
I'm getting 5-7 hours here depending on the usage but to be sure go back to stock room for 5 days and check the SOT BY THE WAY I'm on Lightrom with the mad Max kernel
My phone used to be like this... so annoyed.
I tried everything but no result: using battery calibrate apps or methods, flashing stock rom, reinstalling TWRP,...
I am quite sure when your phone is at 20%-, you can't see battery % in TWRP mode :V.
I think the cause is TWRP ( data can't mount )
Here is what HAPPENED to my phone )
I flashed ECHO rom and my phone got bootloop..."Only official binaries ...."
Fine....too easy to fix... I flashed my stock rom and ta da... My phone's battery was Fixed :V
So ...you can consider bootloop your phone to fix the problem ))) Then wait 7 days without restarting your phone... reinstall TWRP ( "NOUGAT" or "OREO" ). And when you download dm-ver... zip to install TWRP, look carefully for LATEST version "LATEST". And dont update your TWRP or use themes for TWRP (Old is gold, simple is perfection :v , fuctional is too enough)
GOOD LUCK

Why wait 7 days with no reboot? Not needed if it's to make the OEM toggle visible...just wait 7 days or use the date-change workaround. Reboots affect the uptime timer but not the server-side OEM unlock timer.

Happened to me lately on stock, never rooted. Try turning off quick charge and use normal method instead for a few cycles. Maybe test on stock firmware just to be safe. If no improvement it might be a degrading battery.
I am thinking to factory reset the phone to see if the problem is solved.. N try the solutions offered ie calibration, quick charge off

Sounds good, just be careful with calibration...fully charging or discharging the battery reduces it's overall lifespan. Don't do it too often.
I did factory reset including internal storage wipe and calibration Bt still the problem exists.. Now the battery will go down to 15 then directly 14,12,10,5 in seconds even if I connect charger at 15 it will go down till 3%..

Hmm that's frustrating. Not sure if there might be another cause or fix, otherwise might be the battery itself.

Yeah, it can be possible to degrade the battery that quickly.
It usually happens when you let your phone go under 20% frequently or let it die completely before charging it again.
I usually do the lowest 25-30% and the 80+% charge daily, then finally use it all the way to 20% before going to sleep, put it on a slow charger, and by next morning its at 100% without keeping it charged 100% all night (which can also degrade the battery, just a lot slower than discharging it completely.)
I have had my phone a week before it came out and my battery is awesome. It lasts me all day everyday. Best phone I have ever had.
