My pixel 4 XL literally lost 6% battery power after just a restart. I know letting the phone die completely is actually bad for the battery but should I actually do that to reset my battery? Losing 6% battery power in less than 20 seconds of restart is very strange. Anyone else have this problem and what did you do to fix it? Thanks in advance for anyones help with this.
I lose 2 or 3% each restart. It's really weird and consistent. Happens every time. Can't figure it out either.

restarting the phone causes a lot of stuff to happen and depending on your apps, they can all be started during the boot

I've been with Android for 10 years and no phone I've ever had goes from 100% full power plugged in to 94% in just a restart...
I don't think so it has anything to do with battery consumption. It must be faulty battery counter where the actually battery % is not what you see and after a reboot the numbers are reset to the original battery% number. That's what i can think of

That would be fine if the phone wasn't on the charger all night plugged in. There's no way a phone should drop 6% being at a full and constant 100% charge plugged into my wall charger. If the phone was off the charger at night I might understand the drop after a reboot to correct the percentage.

But you might want to consider the possibility that charging stopped at 100% which wasn't obviously 100% in real. If it had dropped 6% straight away then i feel what I'm saying is correct.
You might wanna try to reboot by pressing the power button for about 40 seconds or so. You should have a reboot first and then it will vibrate and reboot again. That would reset the better stats but don't leave the power button until you hear there vibration after first reboot.
Starting apps, checking filesystem, turning on radios and reconnecting and registering with cells/wifi, starting the GCM sync tasks... and lots more.
Why would it no use a few percent of battery power restarting? My older tablet chews up 5% on restart is sluggish for first couple of minutes why the play services does all the background sync and backups.

Tried that trick you said to do, I didn't feel any vibrations although I let it restart three times while holding the power button down. Maybe that reset my stats. I'll know later when I wake up and take the phone off the charger and reboot if that did anything for me.

Great must be the faulty indicator stats. Although i was thinking it could also be that your phone stops charging at 100 and drain till 90 and start charging again.
This was the pattern on my Xperia before to avoid overcharging. Pixels might be doing the same if you put it for overnight charging.

Ok thank you for your help, I'll tell others to try the trick if they have batteries falling fast
Lithium batteries do not have a battery memory, so there's no reason to fully drain a battery and then fully charge on any regular basis. Use and charge as needed.
It's also not normal for a phone to drop that much on a restart unless there is something wrong with either the battery or the power management circuitry.

I rebooted twice. First time after 40sec hold down and I lost 1%. Second time I lost 0%

I got a Tab yesterday without any cables. There was a little amout of battery left so i Rooted it and bought the "Euro Tap Bootstrab", i tried it, boot CWM, took a backup and then i turn it off. No battery left.
I got a USB cable today. Plugged it in my pc and tab, but I honestly cant see if charging or not. Sometime comes a large battery icon, but when pressing button it goes black
Cant hard reset.
Please help

A PC will charge it very slowly. You need to plug it into a wall charger. You probably didn't brick it. See if you can get a USB wall charger from somewhere. Usually Blackberry chargers have a USB port that you can plug the cable into.
Using my HTC usb charger, thanks! So I just have to wait now?

Yeah, pretty much. I don't think backing up your Tab would have bricked it, even if the battery died mid-backup since you're reading from memory (internal), not modifying it.
Ehm, to be precise, I pressed "Reboot System", a samsung logo popped out, I waited a long time and it didnt change so i turned it off. Dont hope it's bricked
Just what!? I've charged it for about an hour and have litterly tried everything, this suck big time! It just wont start

Just plugging it in HTC charger gives you almost nothing! Original Samsung charger has a "trick" inside - it has pins 2 and 3 of its USB output connector shortened, and on top of that it has also 2 resistors between these pins and +5 and GND pins. When you plug the cable in common charger the tab does not "understand" that now it must take full power from the charger and does not charge the battery actually (it should take appr 1 A current from the original charger for 4 hours to be fully charged). You should get an original charger, or get a special adapter connected between your HTC charger and tab's cable (I have seen some at Amazon.de), or to make an adapter yourself.
PS. There is a strong recommendation: never do any programing, flashing, backup or restore with battery discharged below 80%, better to do it with charger connected.
Thanks, good to know, however the orginal is lost.. so can i still use the HTC but it will take longer or?

I am afraid the tab will "think" that there is no charger at all. Connecting it to USB port of PC may give a result after several hours (very-very slow charging). Why don't you think over getting (or making) an adapter?!
Will defo get one, but then I would have wait till monday
Don't think i can make one

Actually I have made this adapter in 20 minutes (but I am formerly an electronic engineer, though).
Well, then try to connect it to PC for the whole night (do not forget to keep PC running ), maybe it works out...
First try to run it, if it hangs, try CWM/restore, if it is bricked - re-flash it.
Good luck!
Thanks alot, really! Will report back tomorrow. Again tanks
Just to be clear, when it's charged, does the battery icon have to be there all the time? It does disappear after some while when it's connected
Battery icon disappears in several seconds when the tab is switched off. Short pressing on power on button shows it again for some while. Moving dots under icon show charging in progress.
When the tab is fully charged it makes a short sound.
When the tab "understands" that it is connected to a charger, it also makes a short sound.
PS. After recovering the unit I recommend to install Battery Watch from the Market - it has a widget and you will always know the state of battery etc. And you can see a graph showing a battery behavior. And this application is on top of that shouting - "Charging started!", "Charging complete!", which is funny...
Guess mine doesn't charge?

Sorry for delay - no, it does not charge... the reason was explained.
Yeah i see now. Thanks for taking you time. Defo appreciated
Just for reference, do NOT turn your GTab on while charging from a pc. It won't charge at all. Keep it turned off, and then wait for like 9 hours (it takes about 50 minutes to increase the charge to 10% from my laptop).
And when you flash, always have a full charge. ;-)

Hehe, yeah I just couldn't wait
Gonna pick up a HDMI dock tomorrow, until I've connected it to a laptop to see if it will charge.
So i got a proper charger, but does it charge?
Ok, I'm really sweating bullets here...
I had installed Cyanogenmod ICS alpha2 on my TouchPad and had spent all day on that tablet - loving the new lease on life it had. Before I went to sleep last evening it had like 10% power left. I plugged it in with the official Touchpad charger and left it charging until I woke up the next morning - a full 8 hours later.
To my surprise, it had 0 power left. Nada. Zip. I had checked the outlet and it was fully plugged in at both the tablet and the outlet to the wall. I knew I had turned off the tablet.
Now that it has 0% power - how in the heck am I supposed to boot into Palm mode to charge the battery (as I have heard that that is a work-around)?
I could really use your help here - many thanks.
@kstagg
Not sure if its the same problem...but I noticed recently that whenever i let my tp go down below 10%...and i hook up the charger...it doesnt charge at all...even with charger hooked up..battery drains....So when its 0% and I boot into WebOS to charge to fully....
For your issue, if your TP is dead...do you see battery sign when hooked to wall charger? if you do then wait for some time (mine takes 15-20 mins)...it will boot up..if your android is default then it will boot into android....without removing it from the charger...boot it into webos and charge...
If you cant do this..get it fixed by HP
What does it do when you plug it in?
First take the power adapter and twist off the bottom part and put it back on. When you connect it, do you get the battery "charging" symbol?
What I do is let it charge enough to hit moboot, then if I catch it in time I choose webOS and let it charge a little then reboot to CM, unplug the charger for a few seconds, then reconnect it. If it boots direct to CM the first time (moboot default) it's going to stay 'charging' but doesn't change from 0%. In that case, reboot and either go to webOS or reboot into CM9 a few times till it shows 1%... then disconnect the charger a few seconds and reconnect.
No matter what level the battery is at, if you boot into CM with the charger connected it will not charge. You have to unplug it for a few seconds and then reconnect it.
When I am hooked to wall charger, I see the battery symbol with the red line on it showing that battery is extremely low - in my case battery is dead. It won't even boot up when I take it off the charger. I just get the power cord symbol.
I have even been able to turn off the touchpad completely (since the TP has been on 0% power) by holding in volume up and power buttons simultaneously. I have no idea how I knew to do this - perhaps it was desperation. So I have even attempted to charge it via the wall outlet and waited a couple hours that way - but no change. It still has squat power.
Everything I've read is that once you've rooted the touchpad to a different OS, HP will no longer support it. Not sure where I would go to get it fixed by them either? Please correct me if I'm wrong. Hopefully it won't come to that though. Besides, the Mrs would kill me. :]

Just tried twisting off the bottom of the HP charger and reattaching and am just getting the power plug icon.
I installed CM7 in my friends TP back when that was the current release and about a month ago it went dead, wouldn't power up at all (no battery icon) and they still took it and repaired it with no problems.
In your case though I think you are fine... just leave it charging in that screen for a while. Then do a home/menu + power button reboot (15+ seconds) and see if you can get moboot. It may go back to the charging screen but thats fine, give it more time and try again. A few of my coworkers have the same problem sometimes and they come running to me, lol.

Guess you can add me to one of those unfortunate souls you can add to your list who keeps running back to you. :]
My question to you is - where did they take it back to? Do you have a URL showing a shipping address? Sure, HP HQ is a few miles away from me - but am not about to go knocking on their door and say "Yeah, uh - can you fix this?" Besides that is a corporate HQ - not a manufacturing plant.
I have two TPs and one (older one by about a month) has the connector going loose... It usually charges fine but once in a while, it fails to connect. Depending on the angle of the way the tablet meets the micro usb I will sometimes fail to connect it properly.
My other one has a very tight micro ubs port and it's hard to plug in, but it works fine everytime...
So my point is, make sure you have an actual connection when you plug in for charge.
Dunno if I'm just lucky or what, but my tp died on the way to work this morning, so I plugged it in when I got here, got the red battery symbol, and let it charge for about half an hour. Here is where I am now:

I should also note that it died in cm9, showed the battery screen, then when I checked it next, it had 7% or so in cm9 as well. Never had to boot into webOS for anything.

OK, did exactly what you said and plugged it in w/battery indicator in the red and walked away for a few hours. When I came back just now so far it was at 93%. Can I get a Hallelujah?
Ok, can anyone tell me what to do to prevent this from happening again in the future? Do I have to do any routine cache cleanup (?) or other general maintenance? Will booting into WebOS to charge before battery gets too low always work?
Thanks again folks-

Booting in WebOS before battery gets too low and charging in webos always works for me
Last time i drain my battery to 0% for the calibration. But it charges just fine after that.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using Tapatalk
I'm glad it worked for you! I would say just don't let it fully drain, lol. If it does, just repeat the steps and you should be ok. And you don't need to boot into webOS when it is low, you can plug it in while in android and it will be fine, as long as the battery isn't at 0% which is when it shuts off.
Mine is actually at the same point right now, fully drained.
Sometimes mine doesn't charge....because the USB cord gets ever so slightly slightly unplugged from the adapter.
Be sure to try that in the future.

Was the phones charge less than 20 % at the time when you did the operation?
Use like a rubber band or something to tie down the power button and plug in charger. Should be able to charge up. Give it some charge and try to flash stock again.

I thought I noticed when my phone has a low charge state, it does not want me to do things like restoring, updating core apps, or other significant changes to the system.
Charge it at least over night regardless what the charge indicator says.

Hi everyone,
I currently experience exactly the same problem. I wanted to flash my CM10.2 to the last night build (CM11) on my Xperia V. I boot into recovery mode and wipe data / factory reset and wipe some data from sdcard. I finally choose the "Restart system" option. The phone turns off but never restarted. I think I wiped some important files from system or kernet. I tried all combinations of keys (vol- + power, vol+ + power, only vol- while plugin in usb etc) but nothing occured. No LED, no vibration, no screen on. My phone was charged around 65% when I started operations.
I tried to charge my phone via the wall plug. No led. I wait during more than 30 minutes but nothing changed (I was expecting the back of the phone a little bit warm as it usually the case when charging).
As Ghost4Fun, I noticed that if I pull out the battery and plug the device with wall charger and then put the battery back, the red led blink red 2-3 times but finally turn off. If I pull out the battery, plug the device on usb and hold vol- + power during few seconds, the red led blink. It continues to blink even after release keys. If I put the battery back, the red led stay lit during 1-2 seconds before turning off.
This xperia v is not the first android device I change rom and it's not even the first time I flash this phone. I already experienced some problem during flashing with infinite reboot, device stucked on boot animation, etc but this time it's quite different as nothing happen with keys. Hope it's not bricked and someone could help us.

dm led red switch off than i try to connect to my pc but nothing. No now it isnt red led when pressing power button
I aslo tried quite a lot of configurations with keys and power source (wall or usb) but the only thing changing is the led frequency (~30s, ~45s, ~1m). I leave the phone charging during the entire night and some hours today but it didn't change anything. I aslo tried to let it charge with some keys pressed by an elastic (I read the problem can be related to a flat battery). I haven't been able to have another color than red from the moment it turned off the last time.
I don't think the issue is from the battery as it was 65% charged when it died and even if the phone is plugged for hours, the led color doesn't change and the heat is ambient. The problem is that if it's not related to the battery, it must be software and the only way to fix it, is to make the phone recognized by the PC.
I also plan to send back the phone to Sony but as I'm not at home for the next week, I have 7 days to try to fix it myself :victory: Does anyone already send back a phone to Sony in this state? I mean, my phone is (was ) unlocked, rooted and with a custom rom, I'm really not sure they will fix it (I'm sure they can but not sure they want). Maybe the data I wiped and make the phone bricked will also hide it to them :fingers-crossed:

Thanks for your link (there is a limit of 10 messages before a member can post external link so I can't quote you ).
I tried to plug my device to the pc with the rubber on the volum - button during 15 minutes without any chance to make it recognized by the flashmode. I will plug it to the wall charger for the entire night and will wait. I never thought a battery can be as long to charge. If someone has the technical reason of this long charge when a device is bricked, I'm interested by the answer.
I will update you as soon as I have news.
@Ghost4Fun i think it is because of the broken boot.img inside the ROM, use FLASHTOOL, put the devices in fastboot mode then flash a kernel, maybe NK Kernel, it has recovery http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2223534

Hi,
My HTC One has started turning Off as it goes below 30% and does not powers up until plugged in to charger. When i plug in charger it shows charging and 0% indication.
How can i rectify this ?
I too have seen that the device does not properly indicate the REAL battery level. Mine usually turns off when I am below 10%.
Yeah I'm sure there's a thread that solves this issue, I'm looking for it too. I've been having crazy battery issues, such as the phone randomly changing it's mind on the battery level. For example if I restart the phone (may have to do with if I was charging it or not) the battery either goes up to max, or sometimes goes down to ZERO and won't even start up (pre reboot it would be near 50%)
I think this happens because of using a ****ed charging cable. I have two main cables that I use, with the original HTC adapter (no longer have the HTC wire though, so I use the one from my Nexus 7). Over time the Nexus cable got damaged, and even data transfer was extremely slow and unreliable.
The funnest part? When I charge my phone and it's at 90%, and I restart and it claims 100%, so I power down and it keeps charging for another 10 minutes or so and finally the LED turns green, only to turn it back on and it claims 97% and keeps charging.

HTC one M7 & M8 battery reset and calibration: http://forums.androidcentral.com/ve...ry-charger-reset-procedure-htc-one-m7-m8.html
Follow it to the letter, skip "Turn off Fast Boot in settings" as it no longer applies to our phones, unless you are running an old rom.

I tried this but it does not help much.
Is anyone else experiencing a problem with their phone randomly switching off? Mines turns off at random intervals regardless of battery and when I turn it back on a percentage of the battery level drops. Please see link below for screen shot

I already tried the above mentioned instructions to recalibrate the battery but it's not helping.
HTC One Turns Off at 30% Battery
I Am facing same issue. when battery level is on 30% then phone goes suddenly off. I have done catch partition in bootloader for calibration of battery but it is not permanent solution. I think there should be permanent battery calibration is solution but I dont know how to do it
My htc one m7 also turn off using 30% battery only i purchased a battery and give it to mobile shop but they are unable to change it and asked me to go htc service centre but i am out of warranty and trying to contact some private service centre its not an issue that can solved by yourself or doing battery calibration now i am using my phone with a 10400 mAh powerbank i will soon contact service centre or buy a phone with removable battery if servicing cost too much

Try another phone shop, any good shop should be able to replace your battery. There is a lot of uni-body phones nowadays, good phone shops know how to deal with them.
Hey guys.
I own a Xiaomi MI5 Prime version (64/3GB).
I've always used the xiaomi.eu ROM with my bootloader unlocked and I've decided a few days ago to change my ROM.
Everything went well, I installed the ROM... BUT, my phone at 75/80% would stop charging. I'd replug the charger, it recognized that it was charging but it didn't charge.
So, I decided to calibrate the battery and the problem remained... But this time, it'd get to 100%, but I needed to permanently replug the charger because at a certain point it stopped charging.
I've flashed back to xiaomi.eu MIUI 7.2.9 due to this weird problem and no problem on this ROM.
Does any of you have this problem or had it, and if so, how did you solve it?
Thank you for your attention!
Try completely draining your battery so that it turns off itself.
Then try to turn it up again without plugging in.then use it so the battery that's left gets drained.
Charge it to 100% while powered off.
Worked for me.

I've tried this method but still unable to charge it past 80%. Drained it, rebooted, drained what was left. Then charged it while powered off, then when it got to 80% it rebooted and went to the charging screen again, but this time it wouldn't pass 80%. And now, as you can see by the screenshots, in the shortcut center it appears charging but in the battery settings it shows that it's not charging. Any idea now?

After it charged to 80% it automatically rebooted?
Strange.
You might try the process again maybe as it was taken from a manual battery calibration guide which said to do it 2-3 to calibrate perfectly though I didn't need it more then once.
Otherwise I have no idea what's going on that phone now.

It didn't reboot the system, it refreshed the charging screen. When it got to 80% , the phone turned off, went to Mi logo and then it wouldn't charge past 80%.
So then you suggest me to continue to try your method or do you think that I could try and calibrate it with the Battery Calibration app?

Calibration apps are worth a try.
Then if it doesn't fix,try completing 2-3 empty-full battery recharge cycles.
If that also fails then maybe a fastboot flash is an option.

I am facing the same strange issue. Sometimes is stops at 39%, sometimes at 69% (when powered on). Powered off I got the same behaviour. Reboots to charging screen and wont complete charging.. Always have to un and replug the chargee from the phone. Couldn't find any solution yet...
Also I noticed the charger sometimes gets really warm/hot..
I'm on 130217 build of lineage, haven't tried on miui.

Try on MIUI to see if you have the same issue. I don't have it...

No MIUI.
Fastboot flashes always solves unknown problems.

I've tried this method and FAILED. Don't know what else to do. Stopped charging this time at 77%. Yet, in MIUI everything remains good.
Tried in xiaomi.eu unofficial MIUI8 and everthing was fine. Went back to lineage with my backup phone didn't charge at all last night. Showed up the charging symbol but stayed at 20% over night. -.-

Same!
I had same problem on LineageOS. It was caused by using 1A charger for overnight charge, after switching to 2A it's gone, but also cable could have influence if it's poor quality. Seems that MIUI is handling charging in it's own, specific way.

Yes, I was indeed using another cable that was not from Xiaomi. Yesterday an original Xiaomi cable which I had ordered from eBay. Will try and flash again. I'll update you ASAP.

this was the solution for me! Thank you so much!
Well so I think this is the reason for my problem too. I've been using my old wall charger with the old cable with micro USB and adapter, as I didn't want to carry the quickcharger and type c cable all around. But its still confusing why it also stopped charging when I explicitly tried to charge it powered off with original cable and quick charger. The charger got really hot. Tried it again last night and had no problems on lineage..
