It randomly died at 50% charge, then when I tried to boot it up all it shows is a black screen with a white empty battery icon, what does this mean? And how to fix this? Please and thank you.
Last time I used it is on the charger it came with, but after a moment the phone doesn't seem to work anymore.
My phone has started doing this too, did you find a solution?

Unfortunately not; I tried asking in Mi Forums as well but no one, not even a community rep answered.
this will be my last redmi phone i ever buy or recommend
time to warranty check
i never have any problem wirh xiaomi. best for quality/cost. if i will decide change brand, my next phone will be a pixel. the only one better than xiaomi. in most of cases, your battery problem is caused by a bad charger use. not from phone hardware or software. simply buy a new battery and recharge wirh a good charger from min 20 to max 80. a continuos full discharge process cause battery fast degrade. web is full of articles that talk about this
This is very likely to be due to a faulty/worn out battery.

Oneplus 3 is an awesome phone no doubt (if you don't damage it). However with the dash charging, there's a high chance we might need replacement batteries for the phone after a year or two.
Does anyone know where we would be able to obtain dash capable batteries for replacement? It would be a great disappointment if we are not able to replace it.
*it is a concern because at least in Singapore, there is 0 support despite purchasing a local set. You will be given an email to make an appointment to bring your set down to a location, but NO ONE will respond to your email. Oneplus Singapore Facebook as well as official reseller do not provide any support either.
Why would Dash Charge wreck the battery? Afterall if anything the phone heats up less than other phones, because the charging is handled by the adapter, not the phone.

You have a point there. However, batteries will eventually degrade, so it would be great to be able to do a replacement when the time comes

Most damage to a battery is done at night when you charge a phone when you've gone to sleep, as the charger will put it to 100% and keep it there throughout the night, which puts more strain on the battery. (just look into Sony Qnovo battery charging tech in their new phones).
The dash charger has been proven to change people's charging habits. For example I wake up at 7.30am to go to work at 9am, as soon as I wake up I put my phone on charge. Thus meaning it stays at 100% for less time, and so degrades slower.
just keep your battery b/w 40-80% and it's all good

Awesome! However, the battery capacity seems to be much lower than 3000mah
Stay away from buying non oem batteries. You don't want your phone to be the next Note 7 lol.
Again you wont need a new battery. It degrade really slow. The problem with fastcharging is heat. Batteries dont like heat. Also charging overnight is bull**** since it stops charging when its 100%. Again it doesnt matter what you do.. If u drain it to 0% its not fully empty so really doesnt matter!

Personally I change battery ever 1.5 to 2 years. Batteries have a lifespan and degrade over time. It degrades faster with heat. It's quite disappointing that no one is sellong replacements though.

Exactly. The controller stops the current flow at full charge. It will not top it up if you keep it plugged in such as in the overnight scenario.

The model number on eBay is BLP607.
You'll need BLP613 for OP3.
Maybe after a longer time there will be more replacements, if there aren't already.
If the OnePlus's battery it good I don't see a need for a replacement personality because I change phone after 2 years, when factory support ends and I'm tired of the phone.
I am pretty sure you can't wait to buy a new one before the battery degrade to an unacceptable level.
Like my OnePlus 1, which still has a quite decent battery time, though it has already become my son's toy.
So, don't worry about this too much.
Majority of the users will replace their phones instead of a degraded battery within 2 years. Unless the battery is defective then yea that would be understandable. If you are one the minority who upgrades every 3+ years then kudos to yall for having the will power to resist the upgrade fever.
is there no one who works at one plus and also uses xda?
that dude can help us in getting batteries from the supplier of one plus.
I am using my xperia ZL since 2013. i changed its battery a while ago. now i feel it is time to change my device. moving on to one plus 3 soon.
I think my OnePlus 3 battery is pretty broaken already. Last me for around 4 houers so i need to recharge it several times a day.
I cant find a original battery, so ill probably have to get a not OEM one

Yes I am. Android 7.1.1 and Oxygen 4.1.3
AccuBattery says my battery is 87% helathy and on 2611 mAh instead of 3000mAh, but feels like much less
Guys I've a very big problem with my nexus 6, please see and respond with whatever solution you could think of, it'd really be very helpful to me.
Also sorry to write so long message, I've just given my entire issue in detail for some help.
I urgently need help please from someone experienced with this problem(if possible)
I'm having this really weird problem and I've no idea if there's any solution available online.
From past few months, whatever charger I'm putting in it, it's just not working ever again. It takes time, but after like 1-2 weeks the cable just doesn't work.
*I've recently observed that the cable goes something like, first it's charging*around 700mA(on a 1A charger), then after some days it was averaging 500mA(and the charging time increased too), now it's between 100-250mA(and charging time of atleast 6 hours), and finally after few days it'll stop charging.
I can assure that all cables and adapters I used were original(the first one to stop working like this was the original cable which came with this phone), there is no problem in them as I've regularly changed these and whenever I test in some other phone, the cable works until the time Nexus 6 permanently stops the cable.
It has happened to over 5 charging cables now, all this time I thought that it happened because of one charger, but now I think it's because of the phone. Please tell me what to do asap as I don't want to waste more wires on this. I'm losing a lot of money now. I'm unable to sleep at nights over this issue.
I told this issue to service centre, the person over there was surprised that a wire can be damaged too like this, and said I'll be charged ₹200 for checking(which moto customer care says there isn't any charge), I thought of getting it repaired somewhere else, but other people are suggesting me to change cable. I can keep changing but it'll cost me more and I'll have to keep doing this for next 2-3 years. I just need a permanent solution.
I live in Mumbai, India and bought the phone from Flipkart, and also it's out of warranty.
Also I can't find solution to this anywhere in Google, I just need help in determining the exact issue as it is unheard of so I can decide how to proceed to repair(if it's costly then I might not) or give me suggestions.

Probably you battery is dying.
A common problem for all smartphones after 1/2 years of use,
The Nexus 6 can be charged wirelessly; it's slow but good for the battery.
Buy a cheap QI-pad and charge the battery wireless.
My Note 8 has been great, I bought it last year brand spankers. But, since one week, after it drops to 15 percent, it just turns off. I have been using a genuine charger and rarely charge beyond 91-95... sometimes to a 100.
I know this issue has been addressed before but I have tried a cache wipe, a battery caliberation and a system wipe. it keeps doing this. I don't want to have a battery replacement since it would void warranty... anything I am missing out?
any suggestions would be appreciated. thanks everyone.
the biggest damage to batteries occurs precisely when going very low or completely depleted, not when going up to 100%

Not exactly. I am at a different location where they're not entertaining my request. I spoke to them regarding this

Your battery is dead.
Get a new one at a Samsung Service Center or change it by yourself (Void Warranty).

the answer is implied, you tried to take care of your battery by not charging to 100%, but in fact you neglected the real reason why batteries fail prematurely, which is deep discharging or worst, totally depleting it, so the answer is, no way to fix your "battery drain" , only way to go is a new battery
Hi there!
I've recently changed the battery on my P20 Pro. Unfortunately the only battery I could find was a non-original one.
It seemed to work ok at the beginning but then I realized that when the phone reaches the 50% mark, the battery drains to 4% in a few minutes. So it makes me wonder if the battery is faulty or if it even has the 4000mha needed.
Is it possible to solve this issue trough software or do I need to get a better battery?
If the issue is the battery it self, which one do you recommend to buy?
Thanks in advance.
No one?
I have the same problem , how did you get on ? A local phone shop will happily change the battery but I need to try and source one of sensible quality .....
But why to buy a replacement when you can change at Huawei service for good price. In my country it costs 99PLN which stands for like 20 bucks? And you get original battery + replacement service included on-site. You give a phone away for 2-3 hours and get with new battery.
hi, i bougth second hand p20 pro, person whom i bougth said that he had replaced battery with new one 2 days ago. Probably he even didn't charged it because he powered down the phone and send it to me, after it delivered to me i can not power on the phone. i plugged it to charger but it blinking red light. i charged it about 24 hours but nothing changed. the battery never got charged. it is always cold during the charge. He told me to before he were sent it to me phone was ok. so he refused to get it back. What can i do to turning it to life back before giving it to a service. should i buy a new battery and replace it ?
Hey, got a weird issue with my device.
Just 4 years old piece and already this has a dead battery!!! Cannot use it anymore basically... drains overnight on airplane mode from 75-80% to 0 in 7 hours!!! Last night I left it fully charged and shut down just to not starting anymore this morning because there is no power left, battery is EMPTY!!! Just barely started to charge!!! Something is wrong with this phone, really wrong!!!
I tried custom roms but the phone has the same behavior... so I came back to MIUI 12.5 just to be in the same position and to have the same conclusion: I HAVE A DEAD BATTERY!!!
I went back to my old Redmi Note 5 Pro with a custom rom... just like knew. How is this even possible??? An older device, with same amount of use have a better battery life than a newer device??? Different battery manufacturer, some production flaw in the battery production? Either way, conclusion is clear: NEW BATTERY... so, so disappointed by this situation...
Batteries get old and die , you have to change it , or maybe there is a short circuit on the motherboard , best option is to take it to a repair shop
I know.
But I found out that in fact my phone is only 2 years and 3 months old??? So, is this battery old enough to die? I guess there is something else here.
In the meantime, I already change the battery, sadly not with an original one... and so far so good, but only a few days passed. This battery however is acting strange! Does not charge more than 86%. Aida64 reports battery full at this precent... but I guess time will tell if I made a bad/ good choice.

encounter the same problem after 4 years of using redmi note 8 battery drains so fast unlike before and changing the battery to a new one it either does not fully charges it to 100 percent and it shutdown when my battery percent is around 20 or so percent but when I try to connect a charge and remove it, it will open up to that 20% or so percentage and continue to be used, I'm guessing the it need a battery calibration but I know really know what to follow on the internet.
