I have had the XT1771 DS / MTK for a while. On the official Android 7.1, the battery took a long time to charge. Recently I installed a custom rom, same problem. Changing the charger, usb cables did not help. Any ideas?
Check for signs of case bulging. A failed Li battery will fast charge erratically or not at all... so I learned
Signs; battery swelling, decreased capacity, erratic or no fast charging. Older batteries are more at risk. If swelling is present replace asap as it can damage or destroy the phone... and maybe take some flesh with it.
Everything is fine with the battery. A few months ago I got a call from the other person. It was mainly used for Facebook, WhatsApp, calls, sms. In my opinion, it is in good shape.
I once read on forums that this Moto model is unlucky, many people complained about the battery, and how is it in my case? I don't know, I'm trying to come. The backup phone is, I don't use it as my primary phone.
I will also mention that 5 percent charges in about 11 minutes. I don't know if this is normal with this phone, but my Samsung with OneUI charges faster although there is no fast charging. In addition, if the charging reaches 82%, the charging time is extended several times until it reaches 91/92%. In my opinion, this is not normal. But are you sure?

It could be the charging port PCB if that phone has one otherwise the port it's self; check for debris, clean. The battery and charging port failures are the most common ones.
Replacing the battery is not that hard if you're up to doing it. I'd start with the battery as it's old at this point anyway.
Watch some vids; you need the aptitude, correct OEM parts and all the required tools especially the small drivers.
Anhydrous isopropyl alcohol is used in very small amounts to help loosen the adhesive strips on the rear cover and battery.
In that case, first I will start by cleaning the port, and then perhaps replacing the battery, but before that I will check the manual on the Internet.
I do not remember that the person in front of me had a problem with the battery before, and even in opposition, the charging was correct.
What application to check the battery condition and voltage, is it correct?

Battery condition is subjective especially with no baseline to compare it with.
If you're down to 2 or 3 hours of SOT that is telling.
Li's can go downhill fast. Mine failed literally overnight
I use Accubattery, it's charge/discharge logging feature is useful.
These batteries in Moto are a mockery that comes out.
Well, it would be wise to replace the battery as long as it is profitable.

Hi, I have recently acquired (mid Sept. 2007) a TyTN II device: really a very good and nice device ... till yesterday.
Maybe my experience could be shared with some of you...
Yesterday my device suddenly turned off apparently because battery very low (i.e. less than 5% according to the manual): this is strange because as far as I remember my battery was charged enough to survive more than one day considering that I did not use Wifi/Bluetooth or many phone calls.
By the way, the problem occurred when I attempted to recharge the device: it spent hours under recharge but the power led never become green, but remained orange. I attempted anyway to startup the device, but as soon as the Windows OS started it automatically shutdown because battery too low was detected.
I performed several software reset and finally an hardware reset, while attempting also to recharge it also via USB but without any positive effect.
I contacted HTC which suggested me ... to provide back the device most likely for being replaced according to the DOA (Dead On Arrival) policy.
Please note that according to some tests I performed on the battery, this seems to be charged and the problem relying on the device or OS which do not recognize it as charged but so low that no operations are permitted.
Has some one experienced a similar issue with this new HTC device ?
Cheers,
Max
GF's 8125 did almost the same thing; wouldnt charge past 10% and kept sending notification after notification; this was literally right out of the box. Cingular/AT&T suspected the battery but replaced the 8125 as well.
So far I have not seen other reports of this for TyTn II. It is however a reasonably common problem with many different brands of phone.

Could be a Power managment issue its not uncommen at all. things go wrong in all electronic devices think of the millions of Kaisers that will be sold in the coming months a few are bound to messed up from the factory. Its like buying a car you know ****s guna happen but you buy it anyway since it looks really nice that first day!
Did you all charge using the supplied wallcharger instead of via USB?

Make your kaiser power off, and use wallcharger. If it still doesn't work, call for HTC..
Some problems are solved by letting the internal battery drain, by leaving the device without the battery for a couple of days.
That issue can happen if you (almost) run out of battery.
Best practice: NEVER EVER run down your battery below 5% ! As soon as it reach 10%, switch off if you dont have charger at that time.
You might go below 10%, but take the risk .... !
It is known to us that the new Windows Mobile 5.0 supports persistant memory (your data will not lost when the battery runs out 0%), but it does not say that you will not be able to charge the battery!
More explanation? And how to revive the battery?
Read this thread:
http://www.modaco.com/Warning-Battery-Chargin-t233233.html
It is well explained, how that happen and how to recover the battery

ey man, i followed the recommended procedure for the three firsts battery charges. First i plug the PDA and let charge at 100%, then i let the battery goes to 0% (yes, the PDA goes off, of course) and then plugin onto the wall charger, and let charge to the 100%, repeating this procedure three times.
I do this also with my previous PDA, Hermes. And no problem leting the PDA going to 0%...never see this problem before.
What is the supossed problem leting the battery goes to 0%?
Regards.
EDIT: Found this interesting information about LiIon... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lithium_ion_battery and http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm
jcespi2005,
I simply dont know I just shared the link that I knew from modaco which is useful in this case.
Maybe this is not 100% the case, but as I said "best practice" ... something that it is better to follow to avoid this issue as you should read already that quite a lot of people affected by this very low depleted battery.

The modaco thread talks about Wizard, i think it's not 100% the same as Kaiser, cause is not the same battery, and the hard charge interface on the PDA can be different. I'm going to make a deep research about model and manufacturer for the Kaiser Battery, to see what can be the issue.
Anyway, i let my Kaiser goes 0% three times and charge fine for the three times. So i beleave the issue is not related with the battery itself. Can be the charger? don't know...
What is the model and manufacturer for your Kaiser battery, please?
Mine is Samsung model KAIS160.
Just checked and I have the same battery, SAMSUNG KAIS160.
I have now seen another report on another forum with this problem (Kaiser). I suggested the standard method as used when the refusing to charge issue arose with the Hermes (TyTn).
(It worked by the way!)
i.e.
1
Remove the battery for half an hour or so
2
With the battery still removed connect and switch ON the official (1000mA) MAINS charger (Not other brands that deliver only 500mA)
3
Now insert the battery
4
Wait for up to 5 mins for the Red LED to change to Orange
Repeat steps 3 and 4 if you have no success after waiting for a reasonable time.
(If that fails then elsewhere I have reported the technique of delivering a charge to the battery using a couple of AA batteries)
My view for what it's worth:
Although in rare cases there may be a faulty battery, in the main the problem is not caused by the battery. The likely explanation is that the circuit that detects the battery's presence, fails to detect the battery when the battery charge is very low. In other words there is no problem with battery but the battery charge detection circuit is either frozen or does not switch on when the battery charge is too low.
This issue I see reported across many brands of phone and is not a WM specific problem.

Many thanks for the information, this confirms my suspects about the interface to the battery, and not the battery itself... i see this issue time ago with one Nokia 6100, and solve it with the same procedure you write. Sometimes LiIon battery gain some charge if you place in the refrigerator for a while (cool helps LiIon batterys, and warm hurts).
Regards.
EDIT: More info about charging LiIon battery here http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-12.htm
Seems there is no need to make three charge/discharge cycle before use the LiIon battery. Simply you can use and charge in any moment. Really is better sorts and many charges rather than less and longs charges/discharges.
Power Failure.
Hi guys,
Well the USB did the trick.
Don't forget the Red Wire is the + (Positive)
and
the black Wire is the - (Negative).
A few minutes holding in place did the trick.
Thanks a lot for this thread, I actually had the feeling that I have lost the Kaiser.

Hello,
Take a USB cable (the one like you use to sync your pda) cut it in the middle, expose the wires inside.
The red wire (+) is to be attached to the PLUS of the battery, and the balck wire (-) is to be attached to the minus of the battery.
About one minute and fater re-install the battery and try charging again, this should do the trick.
You can also use 2 AA batteries in the same manner.
Yours,
Ronen
just happened to mine after only a month. Contacted att and the forum and had to get it replaced. So far nothing wrong with this one!

Hi Mike,
Had my Kaiser sent to a lab, they are checking it but they are saying it is a faulty board.
The battery is ok although I bought a new one and tested it to find still the same problem.
Thanks.
I 've lost my original charge.so I have to use an Ipod charger to instead it.
But the phone seems very hot every time charging. What shoud I do now?
In additional, the battery drained so much. It took 4 minutes to lose 1% battery.I 'be bought the phone for 6 months,so why does it drain battery so bad?
Please help me and forgive for my bad in English.
2 options:
1) Your battery is fried.
2) Something is running on your phone that causes it to drain battery (forgot GPS app running in the background or something?), which is also the reason for heating up.
How can I know that my battery was fried? Example like how many mAh are there in my Batt?
I was looking for BatteryDetective (like in my friend 's iPhone 3GS) but it is no avalible for my device.
Also,how to check what was running in background? GPS is alway turns off when charging,certainly
I turned off the phone and charged.and it was still hot,but not much as when the phone turn on
In general, using a different charger won't damage your phone. Apple chargers are often capable of supplying more current than other chargers (for example, 2100mA rather than 1000mA), but the phone will only draw as much current as it needs. As long as the charger is supplying proper, in-spec voltage, you shouldn't see any difference. Your phone is probably getting hotter because it can draw more power from the iPod charger than your old charger, and can now charge the battery faster. I wouldn't worry about it unless the heat is causing problems. Cheap, off-brand chargers sometimes don't supply proper 5V, so don't buy crappy chargers.
Your battery discharge rate is a separate problem. You can check what's been using battery power in Settings|About Phone|Battery use. In my world, Display, Wi-Fi, Cell Standby, and Phone Idle are usually the top items. Checking the wear level of a regulated LiOn battery is kind of annoying; they're cheap enough I just replace them every year or so (500 cycles is a pretty good lifetime).
Thank you very much !
Are there any app like BatteryDetective for android? I 'd like to know how many mAh of my battery
For the past 6 months or so, I've been seeing large drops in my battery life on a daily basis. The percentage reported will drop instantly 20% to 30%. It shows up in the battery life graph as a vertical drop. Attached is an example, but note, I'm not referring to the 2 black lines, those are where I rebooted my phone, I'm talking about the 2 green lines that show an instant drop.
I've been running the latest stable release of CM 10 (cm-10.2.1-maserati) but last night I decided to try upgrading to the latest snapshot release of CM 11 (cm-11-20141112-SNAPSHOT-M12-maserati) but this did not fix anything. I don't know if it is related or not, but occasionally I will plug in my phone to charge overnight and the next morning (6-8 hours later) it will either not have charged at all or the percentage will have only gone up a few points.( say from 13 to 19%), at first I thought the cable was loose, but I checked and the history details will show the phone as charging.
Has anyone seen this before? Is this a sign of my battery dying?

do you have any other cables/chargers to test? i wanna say the battery might be getting worn out. when i got the droid 4 i use off ebay the battery had the same problem and i was losing about 30%-35% total so i decided to get another one of those gold extended batteries and now the drop is only about 10-15%

This happens with various cables and chargers, including charging via a few differnt computers and wall sockets.
Attached is a screenshot of the other problem I mentioned (where it will either not charge, charge slowly, or lose charge while plugged in) it happened this AM so I was able to capture it. The phone indicates that it was charging all night but when I woke up the battery was down to 75%.
As a side note, how difficult was it to replace the battery? I know that the D4 battery is not meant to be replaceable (thanks alot Motorola) but I've read that it is possible.
It is not that hard. Takes me like 2 minutes to take out the cover, unscrew and replace the battery. Tutorial could be found on YouTube anyway

i dont know why its not charging properly especially when its not even awake and youre on wifi.
the gold extended battery comes with the screwdriver you need to remove the 2 screws that connect the battery to the phone so the only tricky part is removing the battery after you unscrew it. the first time might be a little tough but after that it comes off easy. to the right of the flex cable there should be a little plastic you can pull on to safely remove it but itll most likely be covered by the tape with your device information on it
i dont recommend pulling from the flex cable at all or removing the back cover of the phone too often because the plastic that holds it in becomes loose and itll just break off
why couldnt they just make it like the droid 3? so much better

Thanks, I'll look into one of those replacement batteries.
I have the same problem. Battery usually drops from ~40% to 20%, sometimes from ~60% to 40%. But I don't think, there's something wrong with the battery, because when it gets to 1% it stays there for hours before it dies. So to me, it seems just like a problem with reading data from battery in the ROM. If you check battery level in SafeStrap, you will see correct values.
Someone in other thread suggested that for him update to latest nightly build fixed this problem, for me it didn't work(but I didn't make clean install, just updated from M12).
Yeah, it's anoying but I got used to it.
Upon starting my day in the morning, I unplug my phone and start getting ready, when I come back I see the phone's at 90% already... that's odd. I've wiped the batterystats.bin file (has fixed issues on previous phones after a rom/root change) which fixed the issue for one day but day 2 it started again. I have root, twrp, and a few xposed modules running. Love the phone, battery life is sufficient regardless.
Any ideas?
here are some screenshots:
I have noticed that too. Take a look at your battery graph - does it have a big dip at the beginning and then level off like mine does?
I have noticed 100 down to 90 is fast, but after that, it is all good. Opposite of LG G2, which would stay at 100 forever and then drop down.
Anyway, battery life is great on the R1 HD.
Anyone have a guess what would cause this? It's odd, I've noticed temperature hops as well, not a problem, just means the sensors are budget ones, for example it'll go from 20 degrees C -> 20.5 -> 21, rather than 20.1 -> 20.2 -> 20.3 etc.
I don't own this phone but I can tell you this is common of rechargeable batteries and very commonplace with ANY Android phone. What happens is the phone charges to 90%, afterwards it charges much slower until it hits about %100 (this is to prevent the Lithium Ion battery from degrading or overcharging). Once it's at %100 the charging circuit will turn off and on while the battery percentage fluctuates between 90 and 100. This is just how batteries work as there is no way easy way to stay at %100 and stay plugged in without overcharging the battery. The confusing part is that Android will report that the battery is at %100 the entire time it is plugged in, so that when you unplug your phone you may be unplugging it when it's actually at say, %92. That's when you'll notice a rapid or sudden drop from %100 as Android adjusts accordingly.

That sounds like the problem. It makes sense, I've just never noticed it on any other phone I've had. This is a budget styled phone after all, can't beat that price for a great little device like this.
I have this exact same problem. I notice it's not as bad when I use the stock charger and charge using a wall outlet.

I do have this phone, experienced the same problem, and independently came to this same conclusion. To add, after waking up, I will typically unplug my phone, then plug it back in while I get ready. Afterwords, the charge "sticks" at %100. This seems consistent with the idea that the phone is actually at %90 when I wake up. Plus, the good news is that it can still charge the remaining %10 despite falsely showing a full charge.

Wrong place to ask dude. Go to the q&a thread
Hi guys,
I normally charge my p20 pro every night. Plugging in an hour ago, I recognized that supercharge doesn't work. Sometimes charging completely stops.
Tried to reboot, nothing changes...
Installed battery app and see that maximum charging current is about 1700 mah.
Does anyone now what it could be?
Tried another charger, same situation. Tried different cable, same situation. P20 from my girlfriend on my charger and supercharge works fine.
Thx Benny
Gesendet von meinem CLT-L29 mit Tapatalk
Must be a fault with your phone if thought tried another known good charger and it still doesn't work.
Another strange behavior is that sometimes charging stops. And sometimes usb options pop up like if you connect to a computer... But phone is on charger.
Gesendet von meinem CLT-L29 mit Tapatalk
Sounds like hardware issue. Get a replacement.
Sent from my CLT-L29 using Tapatalk
Hi there, I've been dealing with the same issue as you for the past few days. Mine I can confirm has resolved automatically. Do you expose your device to water or moisture alot? I believe that the p20 has been optimized for safety incase the phone is ever dealt with moisture in the charging port. My issue was that the phone kept saying 'supplying power to connected USB device' when in reality, there was no device connected to the phone in the first place. This was on the night I had dipped the device in water, it appears the USB port is more susceptible to being affected by moisture than any other area of the device. I have taken note that while the charging port is wet, the phone does not enter supercharging. As for how I was able to resolve this issue, I first used a blower to clean any dust or debris in the charging port, this allowed the device to return to its normal state and not think that it is connected to another device. However, this still didn't allow supercharging to work, the following day i was desperate to get this fixed without taking it to the service center. And it would still only show 'charging' and not 'supercharging' whenever I connected the device to the charger (it would actually show super charging for a split second and then going back to charging). I finally decided to just clean the port with water instead (I know this might sound risky and stupid) and so I did it. When I tried plugging it in again it would not supercharge, but i already had anticipated this. Instead, I waited for the next couple of hours for the water to dry out and when it did, finally super charge was working once again. So my suggestion to you is:
1) Clean the charging port as well as you can, and have some patience (incase you do end up using water, as the phone does not super charge when it finds the port to be wet.) Also if you do end up using a pin or something similar make sure to gently wipe away the debris (if any) and be careful not to damage any of the connectors of the port.
2) disconnect the charging adapter and make sure it is plugged out for atleast 30 minutes before plugging the cable and adapter again.
3) if these don't help you then you should definitely go to the service centre.
EDIT: IF YOU DO USE WATER PLEASE MAKE SURE TO ONLY USE A SMALL AMOUNT AND NOT BATHE THE CHARGING PORT IN WATER!!
Thx psycho!
My phone got wet yesterday and the day before. Today morning supercharge works again. Yesterday evening the phone said normal charging but not plugged into wall. Only plugged the charger into phone.
That might be a symptom of a short circuit by water.
I got an app to measure the current ampere.
Does anyone know how much ampere the p20 takes from the charger?
I know that the charger goes down with the ampere when getting near 100%.
I will take a measurement in the afternoon again when supercharging.
How long should I take to get from 30 percent to 90 percent for example?
I hope it's not a hardware problem...
Thx guys.
Gesendet von meinem CLT-L29 mit Tapatalk
You're welcome! I couldn't find any solutions online too so I get how you feel. I think it's just the way they programmed this phone, it won't super charge when it detects any kind of moisture underneath it, when that dries up it goes back to normal so it charges as it should. As for the max current you should expect it to be around 4800 mA - 4900 mA on lower battery levels. Expect this to decrease over time but that is normal, it's just how Huawei's super charging works to ensure that your battery lasts longer and is safe to use. So if it charges above 4000 mA when you first plug it in you should be good. You'll notice the phone starts of slow but as each second passes by the charging speed rises. Also expect charging to slow down on heavy uses such as gaming and when the phone is hot. I think you should be fine as long as the phone continously says that it's super charging at all battery levels. Expect a 0-100% in about 1h 20 minutes.
Below is an example of the max current speeds I get out supercharging but note that this varies slightly depending on battery percentage.
This happened to me too ?
It has been 4 days since my phone got wet and it still doesn't support suppercharge. What do I do? ? Currently charging at 1700 mA according to Ampere

Have some patience. As long as the phone displays supercharging in the lockscreen it's fine. It's also possible that there's still moisture in the charging port/battery area that the phone detects which is preventing it from supercharging. I recommend drying the phone thoroughly and waiting. If it doesn't work within a week I recommend factory resetting your device and/or trying a different cable and adapter. If nothing works, i recommend taking your device to the service center. I have personally experienced this myself and the issue had resolved itself within 3-4 of occurance.

Yes, Charging will appear and then the device will say SuperCharging and will go back to Charging a split second after. Haaaay. This is so frustrating. Today marks the 5th day

I had the same issue, except that before it wouldn't say supercharging for even a split second and it would only say charging. Overtime though, the phone eventually started saying supercharging for a split second (just like in your case). I feel as though this is a good sign.
Avoid charging your phone overnight if you can, it isn't good for the phone, heat etc, supposed to shut off and not allow anything through but it still does and it's best avoided.
In regards to your device not taking the full effect.
It does actually sound like a fault, allow a complete discharge (also something you shouldn't do) then give it a shot, plug straight into a wall rather than an extension.
Other than that I'd say RMA.

It's been proven that keeping charger connected at 100% charge does not damage the battery and some times it's even good to discharge the phone completely so battery is 0% since it helps the battery and operating system to keep proper % level registered. Since it has happened that battery begins to think at 45% is 0% and 100% is 100% so when it reaches 45% it shuts down and tells you batter is empty 0%. This is because battery has been miss calibrated in the operating system which has an file that registers which point battery is empty and full. So this is why emptying the battery fully few times does help calibration to stay correctly with 0% as 0% and 100% as 100%.
For the OP it seems somethings odd with supercharge, could be USB port on the phone, USB controler on main board or the charger and cable.

OMFG there is always one, Lol i'm not going to go into this any more than i absolutely have to.
To put it mildly, you're completely wrong, and i don't care what you've read, please understand physics, if you push power towards something and continue that pressure, whether electric or otherwise, something has to take the brunt of that force, capacitors can't do this forever, which is why they burn out.
I've worked in the mobile industry for over 20 years, i've seen what 6 months of charging every single device on the planet does EVERY SINGLE TIM, iPhones down to nokia 100's
Please don't go on about this, i've seen this 1,000's of times on 1,000's of devices.
Your battery will either bloat or lose efficiency, or your actual device will inherit anomalies, i really do not have time to type what i typed nearly 10 years ago so you can understand.
Don't talk to me about capacitors, which is the only thing which is stopping that charge from getting to the motherboard of the device.
The only reason you should charge your device overnight is because your provider wants your device to die so you can buy another, and that's IT.
I've seen a battery which was a highly rated lithium battery stretch a device in half with industrial sized screws, the battery stretched from 0.4" to 2.2 inches.
The only thing i did was to charge it a lot and it split the device in half (same device used to diagnose mercedes benz cars and BMW's)
Please don't drop "it's been proven" in here, you're very very wrong and the only person you're helping is your provider.
You make your decision who you'd like to listen to, i can't be arsed arguing any more than i already have.
To the OP.
RMA your phone, that's not right.

To bad for you then, since your fact are wrong. It's been proven my bigger professionals out there that it's a myth that battery gets damaged when keeping charger connected at 100% since when it reaches 100% charge point it will stop charging the battery, but mobile will still be running from Charger. So yeah just admit you are wrong, i'm not the one that's wrong.
Also they did say one thing, damage did occur only on very old batteries that exsisted years ago, then those kind of batteries couldn't handle and would become damaged when charger was connected at 100% and it was different type of battery back then as well. Now we got something called Ion battery which can handle the full charge better than old batteries did.
Also idc how many years you been working with phones, alot of people still think wrong and have wrong facts still.
But now your words are against over 10 or more proffessionals out there that has proven opisit answer, so yeah just admit you are one with wrong facts.
Not last but least, alot of people take old facts with new batteries and still belives that battery are affected same way. But answer is no it isn't affected same way. lithium ion is another kind of battery we use for quite few years now. But before lithium ion came then it was a another kind of battery that did not handle itself well with 100% charge and would easily wear out alot quicker and get damaged.

Lol ok as I said I'm not going to go into it
You overcharge your phone and see how you get on.
Tell me have you ever got anything close to these battery stats for SOT
https://forum.xda-developers.com/oneplus-5/how-to/screen-time-leaderboard-post-longest-sot-t3780178
14 hours 20 mins?
No I know you haven't
You carry on and I'll do my thing.
Max up time for an iPhone 6 183 hours.
That's a week to you.
I know you have never seen these numbers.
But whilst you're sitting there with your head in the sand overcharging your phone every night lol.
Spare a moment for what you could have.
Don't spread crap without proof.
I have tangible proof I've seen and had to replace devices because of it. Screens, batteries, buttons.
I've seen more kit then you'll ever see.
You carry on the way you are but don't tell people to do what you do. It's idiotic and until you realise that you'll believe what you've read.
FYI you're relying on capacitors.
The second they fail your screwed.
Lol lithium is lithium..
You charge it it expands, please try to understand the logistics and dynamics of what your are attempting to talk about.
Or I'll tell you what, you keep overcharging your poor phone and I won't and we'll see who's phone lasts the longest after a year. I promise you I'll put you to shame.
You're taking someone else's word you don't know over someone with first hand experience of this behaviour
On your head be it
Supercharging Works Again!
So after 11 days my p20 pro's ability to supercharge is back and Im so relived. Thanks for all your help!

It just appears randomly. When I was at work earlier, it worked. But now that I'm home and I plugged in my phone it doesn't work again. It just promps every once in a while. It's like trying to supercharge and something is stopping my phone from doing it
my pro had a swim last night, and now it doesn't charge at all..
