I've just bought a slightly used Mda Vario II,
but i have some troubles with the battery. i fully charged the battery (i suppose 15 hours)and when i checked the led was green. so i began to use my new device. but after 4 hours the battery was empty.
i'd remove the battery and placed it back in the device. and it boots.
with 20% battery and it lasts for i suppose an hour. then it shuts down again and if i do the same it starts again with 10% good for a half hour.
is this a common problem? is my battery dead? does someone has a solution?
Depends what you do with it. If you are using it a lot, depending on what you use, it could be normal. If its in standby with minimal use, a few calls/txt/mms/email, then it may be the battery needs replacing.
Charging the battery should only take 2-3 hours, NOT 15 unless you are using a non standard charger, even then 15 hours is excessive (unless you mean you left it overnight).
I'd look at replacing the battery, if you know someone with the same phone you might be able to borrow their battery to test. Test your battery in theirs and their battery in yours.Only thing I could think to try...
Cheers...
Thanks for the fast respond,
i am using 3g the whole day. automatic recieve email every 5 minutes.
furthermore i'm an average user i think.
how many hours can you use your tytn?
From what I hear 3G eats a lot of power. 4 hours sounds pretty good if you are having it on all the time. A 3G iPhone doesn't do better! I don't use 3G on mine but I am a heavy user. Data connection (EDGE) on all the time, Bluetooth always on, use it as an mp3 player, take about 3 hrs of phone calls, and surf the web. I don't let mine drain all the way down (leave it plugged in the car and at my desk) and I carry 3 batteries as spares. I'd say a battery might last about 9-10 hrs. if I didn't plug it in. I'm sure if I had 3G, it would be about 4-5. Of course it depends on your battery size as well...
If you aren't actively downloading/surfing the web, why not just turn off 3G until you need to use it?
Also need to remember that its not good tolet the battery discharge lower than 10%. People have had problems where the phone then doesn't recognise the battery is plugged in when trying to recharge. If you are gonna keep downloading emails on 3g all the time, it might be worthwhile to invest in another battery or two as vwkess does.
I tend to get a day or 2 out of my battery but I download my emails through activesync when at home or the office. Gives my battery a longer life and is easier and cheaper as Oz doesn't have unlimited data plans that are "reasonable".
Also would suggest getting a Larger capacity battery if lugging around a couple of extra batterries is too much of a pain. Though depending on what size you get it can make your Hermes larger. I have a 1650 Mah but you can get 3000 Mah batterries. Its up to you...
Cheers...
Thanks for the reply's!
I have a original 1350mAh battery.
And EDGE isn't supported in the netherlands.
Is it possible to switch between 3G and GPRS?
So i can set the phone to GPRS when i'm not using internet.
Will a 1500mAh battery last longer? or is it better to pick a even larger battery?
Yes, you should be able to turn off 3G in the Comm manager and just turn it on when you need it. 1500 will last a little longer, probably a couple of hours depending on usage.
Hello,
Sir like many others, I too have a battery problem with my SPV M3100
The battery always shows it's status in the 10s. Which means like..
90%, 80%, 70%, ...
It never shows up something else then tens which is not really good.
The second problem. If the battery is 100% charged, I open WIFI in few seconds it will drain to 90% and 80% and then 70%.. It drains really very fast. I know that WIFI eats up the battery but not like 10% in 1 minute???
Third problem, If I keep my mobile 100% battery on stand by mode and I don't get a call. After 24 hours I go and see it will show and battery left 100%. But if I go and do a small task in mobile, it will drain like 30% in once. That is quite ammazing I have never played on music so can't say how much it drains while playing music on hands free.
Overall on standby mode, the battery lasts like 3 to 4 days. But if you use it for even a small thing, it drains really fast and battery was dead.
Please help, I think this all is not normal, Radio version can be the reason of this???
Thank you very much
Faisal
i have too this problem, if you find any way for solve this plz help me
I have the same problem..
Even when I go online with GPRS/3G/UMTS/HSDPA..
Does the problem come from the battery?
My battery has UTSTARCOM text on the battery. How about you?
EDIT : You need to flash a ROM with a 1% increment fix, it's because the stock/official ROM has 10% increment battery meter, I don't know why.. And my battery drains very fast because I have over-charging it.. I leave my Hermes charging overnight when I'm sleeping, and it leads to over-charging.. You need to unplug the charging cable when the charging complete ASAP..
I have the same problem on my Spv m3100. The power meter deplete at 10% increments. Unlike my HTC TyTyn 2 - Kaiser this shows actual units.
Hi everyone!
Wondering if there is or are anyway to calibrate Omnia battery? I think it is draining too fast, first i left my phone charging for 5hours to completely charge and just send 1 message and download Samsung App "Now" and in 1 hour since has now 92% of it. I use brightness in minimun, use Edge connection and nothing more to spend so much...in moment im using "mirolg" mi7ROM mango 8107 DFT, great by the way!
Any ideas?
Thanks!
after each ROM flash i recommand the battery dicarger tool from MS Market Place.
really it works, really! It allow the battery circuitry to calibrate to the right energy level.
After flash a ROM, I let the battery completly discharging and then I charge my device for minimum 8 hours. then on 30% battery level I repeat this process. my battery has 40 - 50% longer life with the same usage.
"Even though lithium batteries don't have the memory effect issue, they still have a phenomenon called state-of-charge (SOC) mismatch. Battery Discharger employs various hardware resources available on the phone to discharge the battery power at a faster but controlled rate. Charging the phone completely from this state would allow the microprocessors on the battery circuitry to recalibrate and start reporting accurate energy levels.
Battery Discharger is a smart app that lets you discharge the battery of your phone at various discharge rates in a controlled manner. User can configure Battery Discharger app to use one or more of the following hardware resources to achieve the optimum discharge rate"
Thanks for your suggestion, miro!
I tested the application you mention and it works really well.
First thx miro for a great rom, this tip gives me 4 Hours more power !!!
I flashed a new rom and in cwm, there is no wipe battery options.
- Can i do battery calibration with market applications?
- I always use usb charging. Should i use usb while doing calibration?
IMHO battery calibration is almost mith. Still you can use applications from market and see for yourself is battery suffers any improvement. But callibration is almost same charging from 0% to 100%.
Why do u need usb when phones have fully charge? :laugh: Just do that thing
Because wall charge is far away and usb charging is making battery less hotter, the half ampere of wall charge. So i think it makes battery live longer.
To make battery %0, should i power on a lot of times after power off itself? And there are some apps that use a lot ofthings to drain battery fast. ARe they suitable for those?

Ok. No just turn on phone one more time after he shutdown first time. You can listen music or watch videos. But don't stress that much battery doesn't like to go out 0% :silly:

YEsterday i used app, it deleted battery and i used normal usage today. I froze autostart and greeinfy and juice defender application for this first time. IT went about 10 hours. The mobile data was always on. I did not awake phone too much.
To %89, it went very fast again. Then it slowed. From %50 %60 to %30 40 it again fast. Then it jumped %14 to %5. The last %5 lasted very long. ABout maybe 45 minutes. I dont understand my battery. Then i opened 2-3 times to finish battery after shuttingh.
Now its power is off and it is charing ac. In screen i cant see the level of battery so i will wait 3-4 hours. Then will open. Maybe i can wait untilmornning, 7-8 hours because i can sleep.
IS it anything wrong i did_
Hey guys ,
I have a Note 4 N910F. I can't say I'm impressed with its battery life (coming from LG G3) but it lasts from the morning till I go to sleep on med-high use which is fine.
The problem that I experience though, is that if I "heavily" use my device when the battery reaches 10% - i.e. the GPS and the Data Connection turned on and Google maps are being used, the phone suddenly shuts down. I need to put it on a charger to turn it on and the battery is 0%.
I will post a screenshot as soon as I can.
Do you think this might be related to a hardware issue ? Or is it just the battery ?
I've tried to calibrate the battery but didn't help.
thank you!

Next time you should search first as there is another thread discussing about this.
But I will still answer your question.
It's your battery deteriorating.
It seems that your battery can only hold 90% of the original capacity.
Li-Ion/poly battery WILL deteriorate over time & it can deteriorate faster without proper care.
How to prevent faster battery deterioration:
Avoid heat.
High temperature is the worst enemy of any lithium based battery.
Never let your battery reach 0%
Reaching 0% means longer charging time = more heat exposure while charging
Avoid putting your device/battery on the dashboard during sunny day.
Do short charge multiple times a day.
