Battery Problem

My phone suddenly just shuts down when I'm using it... not a "powering off" but just out of nowhere turns off
Anyone know what the problem might be?
I've had this same issue before, so I bought a new battery last month and it worked great until just last week...
I've tried resetting the battery stats....nothing....
The battery still fully charges and shows the correct percentage when I plug in the charger to use...
Could it be the ROM or battery issue?
....I'm currently using cannon's rom... 2.2.1
Anyone know how to fix?..... thanks

Something to take note, What are you doing when it does this?
-Surfing net on the phone
-Listening to music
-Charging
-Tethering
Keeping in mind that the phone will shut its self down (it should) if your battery starts to over heat. On my Hero the charge light flashes before it shuts down and it gets really hot to the touch. Also at higher heat temps, overall battery life suffers.

my phones shuts down usually when wifi is on and im sirfing or using youtube app or google maps(every time i use wifi for a while this happens...)
it also shuts down rarely on calls and sometimes when im trying to flash a new rom...
it doesnt powers on until i connect it on AC...
I REALLY NEED HELP...
ps:if i change the battery will my problem been solved?

it turns off randomly...even when im just browsing through the home screens... a full charge will last me like 5 minutes max.... no matter what im doing an the battery doesnt overheat at all...
and when i plug it in to the charger, it shows the correct percentage.. well at least an estimate of what it could be (for about 5 min of use before shut down= 95%)

I have the same problem, It is extremely frustrating.
The shutdowns would happen randomly during surfing the net or using google maps. It would shut down out of no where and it would be impossible to turn back without being plugged into a charger since the phone thinks it battery is at 0 even it was just charged to full before the shutdown. I tried to calibrate the battery but it would just shut down while I'm trying to burn through the charge with the screen on. This is the such a nuisance, can't even get through one day.
I am using biffmod 1.8 so I don't know if this is a rom related problem.

I'm havuing the exact same problem. Even with a full battery, the pgone will shut down when I do anything more than a text or two here and there. When I put it on the charger I will still have a significant amount of power left. I've tried doing full wipes and changing roms. I think it might actually be related to the radio. This began after I updated the radio. It would get stck on formatting the cache. I tried going back to the old radio, but the problem has persisted.. and it also got stuck on formatting cache...
I hope someone can help with this bc it pretty much renders the phone useless when it's not being charged. =\

try change the battery...this solve my prob

you could try recalibrating the battery.
let your phone die.
plug it in for so long that you are 100% sure that it is full.
boot to recovery wipe battery stats.
boot normal
use it and let it die.
recharge again until its full BEFORE booting it.
if you sure its full boot normal.
if you follow this cycle some times it should be fine.
Only issue: you have to wait long until its full and you always have to be near an ac

i've tried re-callibration.. guess i will have to get another battery..
i don't think it's the battery though bc others with the same problem said that the problem persisted after getting a new battery.. =\ we'll see.. thanks for the replies.

I have the exact same problem, am about to buy a new battery tomorrow unless someone else has another solution? This might not be the proper forum but in here at least many i9001 users will read it.
I've had this problem for about a week, was very annoying while on holiday. I've tried using BroodROM BE 1.0, Stock KQE and now back to stock KPG.

Try ebay - you can easily find decent batteries for 5$ there.

Well yes I'm going to try a different battery soon but the odd thing is after my battery charge seems to drop down to 5% or so, it starts charging to about its original charge level without a charger connected. So it's basically 80%->drop to 5%->charge back to 60% without charger.

i'll try now to do a hard reset, go back to stock rom, then reinstall an costum rom,
will tell you if it works!

Plz mods remove/delete this sheeyat.. this is
Galaxy S Plus I9001 Android Development

i have used TeamWin Recovery for wipe all partition becouse with hard reset don't wipe /system and internal sd.

I thought I was the only one with this problem. I charge my battery to full and it starts draining normally. Then, when around 30-80% battery remaining, it turns off. It only turns off when you use it for a while, when the screen is off it stays on normally. After rebooting it turns off within a minute or so. This continues for a few reboots with the battery level remaining roughly the same. Eventually after a few boots it shows 3-4% of battery, after which I of course have to charge. Also tried calibrating and tried different roms but it still remains. I ALSO SWAPPED MY BATTERY WITH A FRIEND BUT IT DIDN'T HELP! It worked like a charm for him but I still got turn offs with his battery.

If i were you Guys, i would install stock rom and hand in my phone under warranty ( of course if you still have it ). Because if this occurs even when u swap battery, let samsung play with you phone then

Its not your battery..restore your phone to the way it was and give it to samsung

i'm getting pissed of now, even with the stock rom it randomly shutsdown.
i don't have any warrenty so i can't give it back to samsung

In case anyone's still wondering, in my case it did turn out to be a fried battery. If anyone else is experiencing the same issues I was, just check your battery to see whether or not it is swollen. If it's bigger than it should be, that probably means it's fried and you should replace it. I'm happily running custom roms without any trouble again now, and battery life is awesome!

Sorry Rajito, but you are having a serious problem, i think the motherboard is the problem, my friend had the same problem with his I9000 S simple. You shoud go to a service !

Hi guys,
I also have this problem, my phone randomly turns off and when I turn it on, it shows much less remaining battery percentage than before. (please see attached image) After turning on the value is increasing, sometimes from ~5% to 30-40% or more...
Now I have CM10 Jelly Bean flashed, but CM9 did the same sometimes but much more rarely than on JB. Today the phone 'died' three times until noon.

Yeah that's the exact same problem I had. In my case it turned out to be a fried battery, see if it's swollen or not, if you lay your battery on a table it should stay still and not wobble around. If the battery's not flat but swollen that means your battery is fried. In this case good news because you can easily replace it

unfortunately it is absolutely not swollen, its fully flat :\
besides this I put out the battery now and put it back and it is showing only 2% percent of battery so maybe my battery is wrong
UPDATE: after uninstalling the pro version of Battery Indicator there were no random shutdowns at all, but the free version is fine o.0

Absolutely sudden battery drain-GingerDX

Hello Guys, I'm using GingerDX from months and lately I started getting a strange problem- I go to bed with fully charged phone and in the morning the phone is switched off and when I turn it on it has only 1% battery left. This happened only 3 times-always through the night-one of the times I was even on airplane mode. Beside this- the battery acts pretty normal- 2 to 3 days.I took every popular battery saving measure, by the way and the internet traffic is always off when I don't need it.What this could be?

It happen on all roms,that battery goes down very fast. Like 2% in minute. If you see that,just reboot your phone and problem is solved + stop running services!

Thanks, but I can't see that, since it happens while I'm sleeping.I also have very few services running almost all of the time.And why isn't this happening all the time- I'm using the phone in the same conditions and settings all the time?

if its at 1% and the phone continue work then you might need calibration, but if you are telling that its shut down then might be hardware problem( of your battery)...
but you dont loose anything to go back at stock and see if the problem resist....

It shuts down, because the battery got empty at some moment-I guess this is normal.Then it stays switched off till I awake and notice it,let's say few hours ,and then when I am switching it on- I guess it has enough power just to turn it self on, after which I'm putting in on the charger.And yes- battery is calibrated last time I changed the Rom.

Spontaneous Shutdowns

Hey all, I've been having a bit of issues with the Z1 that happened a few months ago.
I just want to clarify what exactly is going on with the device, I've looked into other threads with similar situations but I just want to make sure it comes to the same conclusion.
So the Z1 shuts off near instantly at random intervals being at 80% or 60%.
The thing I never see addressed though is that in deep sleep, my Z1 can last a whole week without issues, the most activity it sees is playing music and nothing more. On airplane mode and everything.
So I just find it strange that if it's dormant, the battery is 100% fine with a very long life, yet upon use for about maybe an hour, whether it's light web browsing or gaming, it randomly goes straight to 0% and dies instantly. When I set it to charge it says it's charged to 60% as if it still has battery. This kind of activity doesn't seem like it's a hardware related issue, or at least it doesn't seem to be related to the battery capacity.
So I figured that maybe it's software related somehow, yet the same issues arise, I've tried stock kitkat and lollipop, AOSP kitkat, lollipop and nougat, and they all have the same issues. One thing I noticed though is that ever since this issue started, I noticed that I can't wipe my data partition anymore.
It mentions being unable to wipe the partition due to encryption or something, even though I've never set up encryption before and for years I've been able to wipe data just fine until a few months ago. Maybe it's related? Do I have some kind of virus?
Just want to clear up any misconceptions before I conclude that I'll need to buy a new battery.

Try command in fastboot : fastboot format data, this may help you

Same here... I was under the impression it more likely happens on camara usage. Some moments later.
Looks like this here:
- Battery is eg 69%
- suddely it says "Shutdown"
- I reboot and it says 0% and shuts down again
- Needs to load a few minutes, then has like 70% after boot.

Weird Battery Behavior

I received my Xiaomi Mi 9 yesterday and after setting everything up I started to notice a fast battery drain, even when the screen is off, which I found to be quite weird for this phone.
When I restarted the device however, my battery percentage was back up again. It somehow went from being at 15% to being back at 73% after the reboot!
I am very confused about this, and I have no clue what could be causing this.
So far I've tried to do a factory reset, which didn't seem to help however. I've turned off WiFi, GPS, Sync and I pulled out my SIM Card and left it sitting, screen off, with occasional checks, but still the same drain.
What's even weirder about this is that the drain seems to be constant. I included a screenshot of the battery history graph, where it is visible that the battery "drains" at the same exact speed every time. Every time you see a spike upwards, that is me rebooting the phone. You can also see that WiFi (and also GPS and SIM Card) was turned off at some point, but that didn't affect the drain at all.
The phone isn't running hot or anything either, it's literally doing nothing, just sitting there draining.
I've let it drain down to 0%, at which point it just turned off. I could immediately start it again and it was back at 66%.
MIUI's battery analyzer thingy does also not have any recommendations as to what to do, except "turn on battery saver", which it says only gains 8 minutes.
I'm running the latest update that I could get through the updater in the settings (MIUI Global 10.2.17.0).
I'm really at a loss here as to how to fix this, or even pinpoint what could be causing this. I would've blamed I faulty battery in my unit, but it kind of seems to be more of a software issue? I really don't know.

It seems that a hardware fault (BSI) rather than a software issue
Cause no one report such a problem with this phone

Do you have any idea which part of the hardware could be causing this?

I said bsi or battery
But refer to warranty for replacement
