Your not alone, i always experience this, i just learned to live with it well until an maybe an update will fix this i think there is a problem with the android system, you can still try to calibrate your battery though it didnt work for me

It is definately the android system. There is another thread here where the samsung rep says they know about this version of android and the battery issue. My tab went to zero yesterday in ten seconds. It took me a long time to get the battery meter to show it was charging again.

yep, i second you bro, if a lot of people are experiencing this then it may be due to some bug or something on the system i think its its definitely not the hardware if it is shame on samsung for manufacturing faulty devices, well lets hope for the update

Has anyone tried calibrating the battery? I just received a Tab for testing and it was used prior. Some battery monitor apps reported less then 12hours available after a full charge. After I calibrated it, i'm getting ~28 hours / moderate use before battery is depleted. What amazes me with the Tab is that when idle (overnight) there is no decrease in battery levels and graphing shows a complete flat line when idle.
I love this device

I have done all of the battery recalibrations suggested here on xda to no avail. The only thing that has helped me is plugging in a portable kennsington battery by usb that tricks the battery indicator and it seems to slow down my battery drain.
Said at all, i have to get use to with it, right???

Try doing a resetting on the tab, and do a full charge, I mean let it charge for 8 hrs continuously.
If it can't work, bring it to Samsung for firmware upgrade (takes about an hour), after which do the same, long charging.
Last option, ask for an exchange with Samsung.
Rooting it has never been my option

If you can let go your tab to them for a couple of days, you can ask them to check on the status of the battery as well.

Hey guys, I was in the same boat (you can see my posts on other threads) and I have tried pretty much everything from flashing rom, resetting, calibrating, and bump charging. Last night I decided to open up the tab and look at the battery, thinking maybe I should buy a new battery to test.
Long story short, I disconnected the battery from the board and let it sit for 15mins before reconnecting. I check every couple hours to see the battery level in android. So far, I only lost 1% for 20hrs in flight mode w/o any app running. I usually lost 20% overnight and would regain that after reboot. So the problem is GONE and the system is reporting the right battery percentage without fake dropping.
I will continue to monitor it and report back, but it looks great so far. Hope this helps other XDA fellows.
Thats actually ive been wanting to do just prick it open, funny though i my problem resolved it self, last night i keep rebooting my tab up to the point it hangs and froze then i left it like that for an hour then i pressed the power button for around 10 seconds to reboot it again, once it booted up it showed the correct percentage, now im still monitoring if the trick went well..

Hi Shinji, it is quite unbelievable that the tab only drain 1% for "20hrs". But it is great, if opening the tab can solve battery issue. Now, I myself encounter some other new problems, after I solved the sudden drop in battery issue by upgrading to new firmware (e.g. 50% => ask me to shut down). Now, no matter how I charge, it will remain 67 or 70%............
Do you have the instruction to open up the tab, or any link which you can lead me too? Thanks.
Hey henrylam do you charge phone whilst on and how long do you charge for before you get fed up waiting for it to move from 70% and remove charger ?

I try both, on and off, sometimes it work sometimes it doesn't. After I have done factory reset, it seems ok for first 3 cycles. After that, the problem surfaced again.
Sometimes, it just stop charging at 65 (curvefish battery indicates) but battery icon shows like 85%. I felt like smashing the Tab and get myself a new Ipad. I am thinking to send it again to Samsung this Friday, and let them investigate for a while (hopefully 2 weeks will be sufficient). Damn it, my wife tab has no such issues. She didn't even do an upgrade on her firmware.
Hi,
My battery info screen is always showing 0% - Unknown. I´ve tried different charging options but with no success.
The battery is charging and when I connect the Nexus 7 to the adapter/pc is says charging - 0% when locked.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
Had the same problem. It was not ROM specific. Even though the reading said 0 it was still charging normally (as far as I could tell).
I called Google (I bought my Nexus 7 from the Play Store) and they replaced it. I think that the battery sensor was bad.

Just to let everyone know I tried both that app and clearing battery sats in CWM, neither did anything. I even ran it dead and then fully charged with no change. The OP may have a different problem but in my case I definitely think it was a hardware sensor issue.

Um, weird, I came home after leaving my tablet on my desk all day at home, with about 35% battery.
It was dead. Like really dead. Dead dead. I don't know if it should've run down 35% totally idle; I'd left it for 3 days before without a problem.
Now when I plugged it in, it turned straight on. Google Screen -> Lock Screen. No colored X.
Showed 0% for 10 minutes. The battery graph was especially weird. For one thing, it had locked the stats and showed as still on battery basically. For another, it showed going from the low end of green to instantly dropping to 0%, red. Unplugged it, and it died instantly.
I'm letting it charge now with it off. Quick power button press shows the charging indicator thing.
I actually have an RMA out for this one for the touch screen issues, so it doesn't matter, but still... weird.
battery sensor/calibration issues
Old thread but I thought I'd add to it for other people with the same problem.
I have basically have the same issue on a stock, rooted 16GB Nexus 7. It's highly intermittent.
It first reared it's head about a month after I got the device (in Aug 2012), on the original firmware. My nexus 7 wouldn't (appear to) charge past 25% and would shut itself off after being on for only a few hours. I spent a day trying to fix it, including wiping the device, but nothing worked. Then magically, a few days later, the problem was gone.
The Nexus 7 worked fine for another month or so and then one day, after having charged it for several hours, I noticed that it was reporting a 0% charge. (Firmware was still stock but had been updated) This time it didn't power off, it just misreported it's charge. I could still run it for 10 hours or so, even though it said that it had a 0% charge and that I should connect the charger. I tried the "battery calibrator" mentioned in this thread which didn't seem to work but the next day, the device reported it had a charge. It's been randomly fluctuating between reporting 0% and a having charge every since. Sometimes it works fine for several days but then it will say 0% again.
It hasn't really affected my use of the device but it can be inconvenient not knowing how much charge you have left. Today I finally called Google and explained the problem and they promptly offered to exchange it. Hopefully this is not a design flaw but a faulty component from bad batch..
There's more than a good bit of bad advice in this thread. That anyone would waste people's time by recommending a ”battery calibration” app or to wipe battery stats is disheartening, as it is widely known that they have no correlation to battery indication.
More often than not, it seems, this problem with the N7 involves the battery connector not being properly seated.

I'm also having a similar problem, though when my nexus 7 completely dies from the battery I plug in and right away power back up and when it comes to the home screen with 0-1% charge it right away powers down. I tried leaving it off while pluged in let it charge for 5 mins and then power back up again till I see it have a minimum amount of charge, it seems to work not sure if its ROM or kernel related, I'll keep an eye on it.
There's a helpful article that seems to help other nexus 7 users, hope this helps

I have the same problem with my nexus 7 3g.
Factory reset does not help.
Finally open the back cover (quite easy) and found that the battery cable connector is loose. So I tightened and my tablet is well again.
Hope this help.
Yeah what worked for me was to also unplug my battery. Seemed to correct itself after that. Mine would shut off showing a charge of 60%.

Does the back just unsnap like a regular battery door?
I have issues sometimes. Like the other night it charged all night and when I woke up it was fine, turn off the alarm on it and had breakfast. Came back and it wouldn't come on. Tried all I could without taking it apart. Ended up removing the back cover, unplugging the battery for ten seconds and then it worked fine. Battery was at 100% once it booted up.

Hello, :fingers-crossed:
i'm having a lot of troubles with the battery of my Nexus 4. I'll try to explain this strange situation...
Few days ago i noticed a ridicoulous battery drain while i was, as usually, listening to some music with my bluetooth A2DP headset Jabra HALO2. It was something like 1% every less then 1 minute. At first i thought it was due to a recently upgrade to CM10.2M1 (which is a monthly build of Cyanogenmod on 4.3) or due to a 5 minutes fast charge from the 2A charger of Nexus 10 that could have "upset" the battery.
At first i started focusing on the software side problem; i tried CM10.2RC1, CM10.2, stock 4.3, stock 4.4 and now CM11M1, and, while doing all of those wipes, i noticed that not only the discharge was insanely fast, but even the charge! The graph on the setting panel is almost vertical while cahrging, like 3% to 40% in 25 minutes.
But that's not all, sometimes, after rebooting, i noticed a battery level different from the previous boot, so i decided to wait a full discharge and then fully recharge it. I have waited the 0% (not so much time ) putting the screen always on and the LED flash too, then, i tried few times to turn it on and every time, after the boot screen disappeared it immediately started to turning off due to 0% battery.
Moreover, for being certain, i tried to turn it on in recovery and wait how much time it would take to consume the lasting charge on the battery. Surprisingly, after 30 minutes it was still there! I tried a reboot into system, showing me a 10% remaining battery (WTF), which discharged to 0% in like 3 minutes. Now i'm waiting the whole night the real discharge in recovery with screen always on, hoping that a full recharge could fix it. I would like to evidence that the phone do not overheat during both charghe and discharge, so i guess the battery itself may be ok.
I'm still not sure if it's a software problem, and i'm worrid if it could be an hardware related issue. Maybe it could have been the charge from the 2A adapter.
I really don't know what to do next. Someone knows how to help me?

EDIT:
I've done a full discharge until even the full hybernation has been shutted down, but seems that it hasn't solved anything. I've also noticed that in the battery stat is missing the display consumption (WTF?!?). Maybe it's a CM11M1 bug, it happen even to my Nexus 10. Here other shots:

EDIT:
I've noticed just now that while I was waiting a real full discharge of the battery the TWRP couldn't show me the battery percentage. Really strange...
[SOLVED]
In summary, the problem was the combination of kernel+ROM. The CM with his kernel on N4 was consuming tons of electrons. I tried Purity+Hellscore, now i reach few days of low usage and one and half of medium usage

It have 9 months, and yes is still under warrenty, but I've bought it in Spain, and I live in Italy. I think this will be hard to solve
I have some strange problemi too.
Sometines the phone reboot itself and the battery drops (i tried to flash all stock: recovery, bootloader,ROM ecc..)
It could be a faulty battery.. Read this topic, it looks like you have the same kind of problems.
Do you also have simlocks/loss of network connection?

I've already read this topic, i think the source of the problem may be related with mine, but symptoms are different. It is strange that this happened 9 months later!
Gully discharging the phone, rebooting, discharge again if any, reboot. Connect charger, charge full. Reboot, charge full again if any, reboot. This always worked for me.
You can also try to fully discharge, completely power off the phone and let it fully charge while powered off ( only a white battery should be shown on the display).

Hi all!
I've some strange problems with mt nexus 4 battery values.
Today i had 59% of battery and i plug it to the original charger. After 2 hours i saw the battery with 100% charge value. OK. Nothing wrong here. I rebooted the phone and after that i had 84% of battery.
This is happening almost every time i charge my nexus 4.
I had stock rom with franco.kernel updater. Now i have paranoid Android with The same kernel.
Any idea about this?

Have you been dirty flashing a lot?
your battery reading needs to be recalibrated.... Charge full than use until it shuts down...than charge again fully, at 100% reboot phone & connect to charge again.....
You also can try "BatteryRepair.apk" from market..most of the time it helps to recalibrate..just install, open & follow on screen instruction....

I had the same issue with my previous nexus 4. Did you ever get your screen/display changed? Or do you charge your phone overnight? Do you rely on USB charging a lot? If any of those answers is YES, its probable that your battery has gone bad (as mine had)
I don't think that's the solution, but give a try to this free app from the play store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&hl=it
I always thought this problem was related to rom development but I'm not sure. It happened to me with CM11 at the very beginning in november, and then it just stopped. Since January I'm on slimkat, at first it didn't happen and then for a few weeks i noticed the same problem you have, now everything has been fine again for the last two weeks.

I've tried the calibration 2 days in a row (battery at 0%, then charge till 100%, reboot, charge till 100% again). Yesterday i had 90% after the reboot. Today i got 91% after the reboot.

I'm gonna try that app. I rebooted the phone around 9am and now is almost finishing the charge. The battery lasts till tomorrow with my normal use of the phone, but i tough strange that every time i rebooted the phone, i lose battery % :s
Just try avoiding the charge to 100%->reboot->charge to 100% again for a few days.
Don't let it discharge till 0%, connect the charge when you have 1%-4% left and let it charge till 100% with the phone on, and then use your phone normally.

Please go through this thread. A couple of other members (myself included) finally deduced that if you ever have your display changed you NEED to get your battery changed as well. Trust me on this, get your battery checked once. It WILL be bloated. Also, if upon restarting there is a break in the battery graph and there is a significant drop/rise in battery level, that is another indicator that your battery is going.

I've been reading that thread but for example, what happens to me it's nothing compared to the first topic of that thread. I only miss sometimes 10% after restart, sometimes 5%, sometimes nothing. From what i understand, in that thread most of users with battery problem had like 80% and after reboot they only had 2%, or 0%. Thats different i think, but i'm not expert on this subject
Anyway, installed the suggested app and calibrated the battery throw the app. For now i have this data (Paranoid Android Beta6+Franco.Kernel.Updater r201):

Try Battery Monitor Widget from the Market - you can see what current the phone is pulling, and if indeed full charge is reached. There are also calibration tools inside - the app calculates the real capacity of the battery, for example. If it's a long way from 2100mAh it would be a sign you need a new battery.
Though like everyone else, I think it´s a software problem. With previous Android phones I had to be careful calibrating, flashing etc. With the N4 I've had no such issues in the year I've had it. That app can help you sort out battery calibration though.
Can you tell me The dev name? Got 2 battery monitor widgets :s

Not really. Just rooted the phone 3 weeks ago and i was with stock + franco.kernel updater till 1 week ago. Then changed to Paranoid Android + Franco.kernel.Updater.
I'm trying this right now. At 1h07am the battery had 0%, so i connected to the original charger and did go to sleep. When i woke up, it had 100%. I rebooted the phone, connected the charger again and the phone had 90% (This at 8am). 2 hours later the phone is at 97%.
I couldnt find this on market :/

Thanks for the suggestion, but that's a little expensive for me at the moment

This looks normal, although if you see a break in the battery graph and huge drop/rise in battery then its definitely done for. However its not the case with your phone, so relax
Well this evening i left the phone with 60% of battery and at 7am the battery was death. Just ordered a new one. I've only one problem. I dont have any plastic screw to open it. I've the torx t5 screw only.
Any advise to the new battery?

Battery on my Note 4 has always been great but as I'm just about at the 1 year mark of owning the device the battery has been dying faster and now in the last week when it gets to 25% it suddenly drops to 9% and I get a low battery warning, then less than a minute later it shuts off and when you plug it in it shows 0%.
Genuine Samsung replacement batteries are only 24.99 on their site so not a big deal but I'm just wondering if anyone else is seeing this at the 1 year mark.
You may have overlooked by title but root cause was localized to degrading battery capacity.

2nd edit: the theory was raised that the battery degrading is being prematurely induced by leaving the phone plugged in overnight. My battery appears to be going strong but I've rarely left it plugged in for extended periods of time; minutes as opposed to hours after fully charged.

Type secret code *#0228# in the keypad (press quickstart 5-7 times, the screen will lock after pressing, but don't worry, unlock the screen and press until 5-7 times) and charge your phone fully. The problem will solve !
I noticed similar degradation a few weeks ago. So I bought a Mugen 8k battery. Problem solved. I now get over 12 hours SOT.

Damn man this was a great idea. My phone has been freezing and randomly restarting and getting extremely hot. Last night my battery went from 100% after a full charge down to 0 when I woke up. I was getting read to do a factory reset and thought I would try this and I think it really fixed it. So far so good anyway. Thanks!

You can flash AEL Kernel to last your battery better. Flash via recovery. Link download at echoerom.com, 7.8 is the lastest version.

Yeah I was thinking of that but in January I'm due for an upgrade and I plan on trading this in so I'm keeping it stock for now. I'm looking at the S7 maybe as my next phone. That's a BIG maybe though. We'll see what they come up with but it sounds promising.

Not me. I've heard of other people with the same experience of getting only one reliable year out of a battery, but my original Galaxy S3 battery only just died a couple weeks ago. That's 3 years, I think, of reliable usage. Your mileage may vary, I guess.

I had the same problem with my Note 4. I got a Samsung replacement battery through best buy and it did the exact same thing at first but it seems to have "learned" that the new battery will last longer.
Now if only these rapid updates that sprint is pushing out will stop trashing my phone
