Hello people,
My battery would only last for about 8 hours after using quickcharge way too many times.
So I went online, bought me a new battery from Nohon and it finally got delivered yesterday.
All went fine until I came to the part where I had to remove the old battery.
It was firmly glued to phone and I had to apply some force (very gently) and while doing that, the battery caught fire. (It looked like a little firecracker).
The battery wasn't even connected anymore at that time. by the way.
Luckily, the phone didn't show too much damage, so I connected the new battery.
The good news is that it seems to be working except for the screen. About 10% of the screen (at the bottom) seems to be working and is responding when pushing on it, although there is some backlight problem. The other 90% of the screen is black and doesn't respond at all.
Do you think that the whole screen needs replacing or that the cables under the battery (they look a little damaged) could cause this?
Thanks!

It happened to me too. The melted circuits can not be restored. I purchased a used mi5 (paid € 80)

It seems to be a screen issue only, because the phone boots up and I am able to copy files over to my pc. So I don't think that all the circuits are destroyed.
Please help me get fast charging back. Like 3 months back, my phone suddenly stopped charging fast and since then its charging super slow. Like if I use it while charging it actually discharge. While switched off it takes 4+ hrs to fully charge.
I have replaced battery, usb assembly, charger, cable everything but to no avail. Now I think its a software issue. Maybe some kernel, firmware I screwed. I have tried Syberia, Xiaomi EU, Rev OS roms as well.
Ampere app never goes beyond 300 mah reading, whatever charge cable combination I try. Please throw if insights.
Thanks a lot

Hiya,
I was out travelling, with my Kaiser and my three batteries - unexpectedly two of them died in humid weather, and I thought the phone had died totally too. It refused to boot up even when plugged in, or it got into a strange reboot loop.
Now back home, one battery is working as it should, but the other two are totally dead - but they seem to charge ok (in my external charger).
Has anyone seen this? Is there any point in trying to revive these battery?
Next step: check with a voltmeter if they respond, and also clean the terminals...

Are the batteries older than a year?
They are about a year old... Maybe less than that, and I have rotated between them fairly well, but they have been travelling around in my messenger bag when not in use (and there is a lot of other junk in there...)

Good idea if they've been floating around in a messy storage bag. Lithium Ion batteries come with built in protection circuitry so if, for example, a staple has shorted between the terminals then the diagnosis for the battery will probably be terminal. Cleaning them with contact cleaner or IPA and testing them in a known good phone is about the best thing you can do in an attempt to 'revive' them. Good luck.
Try connecting all of the batteries together inline, then attach them to a bit of this cable and then attach that to a kite. You'll need to wait for a thunderstorm to fly the kite but with any luck, lighting shall strike the kite, thus recharging the batteries.

I just cleaned the terminals of the batteries with a dry q-tip, and that did it, back to life, and working ok! (they have seen quite intensive usage, so they are not 100%, but now they work as they did before)
I really need the batterystats.bin from someone who has a Milestone with alright battery life.
Please upload, I'd appreciate it very much.
Attached. Why do you need it?

Thank you very much!
My phone has been acting weird regarding battery level, mainly draining quickly to 5 % and then staying alive for a long time. Despite various attempts at calibrating the battery. So I'm thinking if it's so hard for it to create a batterystats.bin that makes sense, I should try serving it one.

Ok. Let me know if it was of any help.
It seems like it no longer happens during every discharge cycle, but it still happens often. This happened tonight:

From 100 % to 70 %, I used it to stream music using Spotify in the car, or kept it untouched in my pocket. Lit the screen a few times to change songs.
From 70 % to 20 %, I sent some text messages, tweeted, surfed a little bit. Not much at all, but the level just plummeted.
The voltage goes up and down.
So it seems the battery level plummets when I keep the screen on longer than for a few seconds.
Going to try a pirate battery next week and see if I get the same results still.
Edit:
After it plummeted to 5 %, I rebooted the phone. Then it showed 50 %. Going crazy...
I have a similar problem. But my batt is not drained that fast. It is fast, but not that.
My batt also "charges itself" sometimes when reboot.
Tried to callibrate but no success.
This started when i bought a new battery.

I think I've gotten rid of my problem by flashing stock and not over-clocking. But it still happens with the new battery I got off eBay. So I'd suggest you try to find an original battery. I hope the ones marked original at eBay actually are originals.
I bought one battery from ebay marked as original and then when it arrived I could check that it is not original, and the battery drains very fast and auto-recharge.
Open your pocket and buy a new battery directly from a motorola authorized seller. I did this and solved all my problems. Btw, I could get my milestone for 3 days without recharding (I had used basically for voice and sms). That is definitely a record!
Just a qiuck question regarding new batteries, do i need to do some fancy calibration to get it working correctly?

Is there a work around for the phone not recognizing a non-OEM charger and charging slowly? There HAS to be a way around this! My G2 is currently sitting at 23% and it says that it will take 9 hours to charge till full!?!?! Even with a generic charger there is no way it should take 9 hours to add 77% to my battery. Any suggestions from anyone, other than buying the OEM charger? I know they're only $10 on eBay but if I could buy one I would have.

What cable are you using? Cheap USB cable have small gauge wires that cannot carry the current this phone draws and will create a large voltage drop which eventually terminates or slows the charging process.
I have a cheap 1A knockoff car charger and use a very short USB cable (1ft) and my phone charges almost as fast as at home.
T
EDIT: Also check the USB port in the phone - if there is lots of lint in there, it prevents the connector from seating and making good contact.
The USB port is fine but I'm using a 2.1amp plug that supports quick charging and a regular 6ft microUSB cable. Still getting the "charging slowly" message.

Must have been a problem with CM13 or something. After restoring my stock backup I no longer get the "charging slowly" message and the phone definitely charges fast now.
I would try charging while completely shut down.
Yes its an issue with the rom you are using. I would suggest you use stock lollipop rom with dorimanx kernel to get the most outta your device.
By default I have my Note 8 to slow charge via the supplied stock wired charger.
Today I plugged in my charger and on the lock screen I had a message which I barely remember stating that I should be using my original supplied charger and currently it's slow charging or that effect.
The pull down notification is stating the attached. Hopefully it's not an issue with the device and just a glitch or charger issue. Never had this before. Normally wired slown charging with the Samsung supplied charger takes under two hours, but it claims it's now USB charging and will take 15 hours. LOL.
Edit. Hopefully it was a glitch, unplugged cable and re-inserted and immediately said 1h 4mins to charge now.

May be some dirt or lint in usb port or cable plug, I use a magnetic cable, it charges a little bit slower, but keeps the usb port clean and saves it from wear off
i have seen this issue on cheap cables.
Yeah I've seen it happen on my Pixel, Nexus and S6. Ever since fast charging has been around I suppose. I have noticed it does not happen when plugged directly into an outlet. Only if its sharing power via a power strip or a plug converter. Unplugging/plugging usually fixes it.

Interesting, as it's plugged into the recliner chair socket. But then again it has been for a while with no issues. Hopefully it ain't a battery issue arising it's ugly head. I'd be dreading to deal with Samsung direct should it be the case.
If it starts occurring again I'll use another genuine note 8 charger and cable before making any assumptions. Cheers

I have had this happen on my Note 8 with factory charger and cable as well as with 3rd party charger/cable (Aukey). Also had occasional freezes at AOD while charging but never really determined if one is related to the other. The freezing happens like once a month so not a huge deal but annoying. The slow charge message happens about same amount.

Hi guys.
I have just starting to play with my i3113 today. I unlocked bootloader, flashed latest twrp and lineage os 18.1. After plugging to my fast wall brick it says "slow charging" and shows over 5chours to be fully charged from 47% to 100%.
Before I flashed lineage it used to take just little over 1 hour from empty to full.
Im using same charger for my two phones and my daily s10e is charging blazing fast with it, so that cant be brick or cable issue.
Does anybody faced same issue managed to fix it?
Thanks in advance.
I've never heard someone having that kind of problems on Lineage considering fast charging. Fast charging is a hardware capability so I don't really know whether certain ROM can influence it.
Youre probably right mate. But my charging speed dropped down a lot. What about kernel? Does ot have any influance on charging?
Same thing happened to me. I have a Redmi Note 7 and when I install the same ROM. It doesn't let me fast charge anymore

Yes, it does. The kernel controls charge rate. The question is, "is it configurable?" That depends on the choices made by the person who built it.
I found this while searching for a solution to my problem with a 19.1 GSI I just flashed .
According to the LineageOS Device Support Requirements ( https://github.com/LineageOS/charter/blob/master/device-support-requirements.md ):
All devices MUST NOT implement forced fast charge over USB methods that violate the USB specifications.
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Perhaps the charger in question was not following the USB specification strictly, or something like that.
I think that I can charge my i4113 with LineageOS 19 (Android 12) in like 2h - using a 10W-or-so charger (only estimates, as I don't have the charger around). I usually use a slower charger overnight though, as this is less stressful for the battery.
Also, the predicted total charge time is only estimated, perhaps the real charge time would have been shorter.
hi, i had same problem,my phone: xiaomi poco F3, i have slow charging on original charger and cable, before changing firmware, fast charging work as expected, i have usb tester that show ~5.17V and ~1.47A
also what is interestet is that, when i connect phone truth usb tester, my phone change status from slowly to fast charging, but fast charging not happens

@Connected201 You may have more luck with a charger with a USB-C socket and a USB-C - USB-C cable.
Also, the remaining charge time as predicted by the phone is only an approximation and may be wrong. After performing a battery calibration ( https://www.ifixit.com/Wiki/Battery_Calibration ), the prognosis should be more reliable.
