Recently I've noticed my phone dropping percentages within minutes, I've been on my phone for about 30 min just moderately surfing the web and it has dropped almost 30 percent. I tried juice defender, although it seemed it
worked somewhat it was really messing with my data connection. Anyone else experiencing this issue?

As of right now I'm just rooted with the update.zip, I did lag fix but unlag fixed shortly after. Didn't have this problem when I was stock battery actually listed a good amount time.
There are bugs with the displayed battery % not being accurate. Especially if you power down the phone while it's charging.
My Vibrant just eats battery by the minute... I am honestly not sure what is going on. IT's 2.30pm and I barely used the phone and it's down to 53% now from 9am.
What can I do to fix this? I have rooted and installed lag fix from this link
I had the same issue before applying ryanza one click lash fix. My battery now lasts aboutlag 2 days. Which lag fix did you apply ?

I know this doesn't help... but my phone is stock and with normal battery management practices I'm not having any real problems... However, I'm really used to my blackberry which could be left on forever without using any battery at all.

Yea compared to my last two smartphones, the vibrant battery life is no worse. It's definitely better than the n900. But no smart phone's battery life has compared to my blackberry's I used to use.

Fix permissions via recovery! Drain your battery till power down and recharge it fully while off if possible.

I had this issue. Turns out my battery had swollen due to over heating. Excessive use while on the charger. In the end, it would take 7 hours to charge 80%. Hence why it was on the charger.
Doesn't sound like you have the same issue. But of you start experiencing charging issue coupled with rapid draining get the barry replaced. No issues anymore.

How do you go about flashing difffrent roms?
Battery still draining quickly' fully charged and my nephew played ko boxing four maybe 30min and my phone was at 75%. Now I'm at work all day since using the phone for maybe 10m total and I'm at 42%. So basically 40m of use and 9 hrs of stand by I'm at 42%. I also g have everything off. Screen dimmed to 10 via night dimmer app. Could an ebay charger do this because mt car charger I got was from ebay.

The topic pretty much explains it. I've been using different modified stock roms and now I'm on the latest nightly of CM7, and I keep having this issue. After a reboot at around 50%, the battery drops to 15%. The weird part is that while I continue to use the phone, it slowly rises back up to sometimes 30% and then starts going back down. I've always cleared battery stats when flashing and calibrated (which I believe is unnecessary), but I don't know if this is a problem with the battery, the phone, or if anyone else is having the same issue?
Attached is a screenshot of battery usage. You can see I never actually charged the phone.

anyway guys, you need to recalibrate your battery, its not being read accuracy.
download BatteryCalibration from the market, charge your phone till 100% (not just 100% but when it beeps, that its truely at 100%), then use BatteryCalibration to calibrate your battery, and then drain it to 0.. (crank full brightness, turn on LED flashlight, blast internet radio, whatever makes it drain faster to get this part overwith), then recharge it to max.
so;
charge to full 100%
while still plugged in, run BatteryCalibration
discharge to 0%
recharge to 100%
battery successfully calibrated, you will now have an accurate reading
I had exactly the same issue on 3 different custom roms....finally resolved by going bck to stock rom

i have the same problem when i use custom roms.
i have been using pure stock rom by wannam but rooted for the past week with 12 hours aday syncing and surfing the net and plenty of voice calls via viber and my battery lasts at least 16 to 18 hours.

This thing only happens on CM7 for me. It had 40% before reboot and like 15% after. However mine only increased to about 17% then started dropping as usual. This never happened on any stock ROMs I've tried(stock, not themed/modded stock).

did you
did you rsolve the problem ? how? I have the same problem and I tried more stock roms ... I don't know what tot do ....
Its nothing to do with calibration etc, its just how the fuel gauge chip works, it learns and more accurately reports usage over time. For example, if you reboot and (I can't remember the actual voltages for the S2) you have 1200mV, the chip goes, "ah, that is 15% battery." Then as you use it more, it relearns its settings and goes "aaah, my mistake 1200mV is really 30% battery. I'll display that instead."
Its been covered frequently that "calibrating" the battery of the S2 in any way but actually using it, is next to useless.

did it but it still there... phone flicks and goes off at or below 40% wont turn on again:crying:
same here and I got the 2000 mAh samsung battery back in the days but now it happens with both of them also when my phone shuts off the screen brightness start flashing weirdly
So here's another thread about a familiar issue.
My phone stops charging at around 85%.
I've tried calibrating, wiping battery stats, but the problem just wont go away.
I find myself having to wipe stats, shut off the phone, pull the battery, and put it back in and watch it drop to 5% every morning.
Does anyone know of a permanent solution?
It always reads 4200mv as usual, but it just never displays more than 85%, sometimes as low as 74%.
Thanks guys.
Drain the battery so low that your phone shuts down. Then recharge. Your phone might show you at 1% battery for a while. Use GPS and watch a movie to kill the battery real fast.

Done that, didn't do a thing :/
I've battled with this issue since installing a version of cyanogenmod about 6 months ago. I don't believe there is a known fix yet - anything just seems to be temporary.
Can anyone explain to me how android calculates battery percentage and why it's not as simple as knowing the voltage which it stops charging at = 100% (i.e. 4200) and the voltage it dies at is 0%? It sounds so simple but I assume it works it out using some other methods.
I have also that problem but it I charge the battery on a AC charger there is no problem (stays at 100%). It only happens when charging the phone.
Try this:
1. Plug your charger cable to your phone. 2. Shutdown your phone but dont unplug the cable. Let it boot untill you see the battery pic charging.
3. Without unplugging the cable, pull out your battery, and let it reboot untill you see battery pic with question mark in it.
4. Again, without unplugging the cable, put your battery in again, and let it charge at about 30-60 minutes. It will says 5% or max 10%, but its okay.
5. After charging for a while, unplug the charger, pull out the battery, and insert again the battery, and than turn on your phone.
6. You will see it wont stuck at that point again.

That's what I've had to do every morning now just to get an accurate reading. It's definitely temporary on my end.
Yes I have the same thing - the "battery pull" method is simply a temporary measure. It reverts to old habits after a charge or 2.
One of the biggest annoyances is the battery usage stats in settings never gets refreshed because it doesn't ever think it's full. Grrr.
The only permanent fix is a new battery. Remember not to overcharge or discharge your phone to make it last as long as possible.

Ok, here is what I do. I use Root Explorer and go into Data, battd and i delete the 4 files. Then from Data, I go into System and I delete Batterystats.bin. Finally, from the System folder I go into USAGESTATS and delete all files in here. Reboot. I perform these steps when I update nightlies or when percentage feels incorrect.

I do not recommend anyone to "go buy a new battery" unless their battery, well, does not act like a battery should. Percentage issues are ROM related, not hardware.

The "problem" is ROM-related insofar as some ROMs accurately display the reduced capacity which is a hardware problem. This problem has been analyzed to death and the problem is the battery, not software! All software "solutions" only temporarily reset the battery meter.

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 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 had changed my display and i charge over night.
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 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.

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?
