Ok , I had this trouble with a battery before .. when I left it on charge, it would just decrease for no reason ... now I got a new battery after that battery refused to turn on my phone and gave me 3 red blinking lights.. It was working perfectly, turned on correctly, etc, etc... now I left it to charge, it went from 32 -> 29 percent in like 5/10 minutes!? Can someone help me.. Is this a phone problem? like I just bought a brand new battery for 10 dollars, and it's already having the same problem as before, All I did was go from stock, to FXP CM7 ...
I had the same 3 blinking red lights with my x10 also and took it to the ATT service center and they tried everything. I had to get a whole new unit. I hate to throw in the bomb here but that's probably what you have to do. There are a few threads though about this issue. If I come across one I will definetly send one your way. But try different charging techniques and ways. If you have the phone under warranty still through ATT, it will be a free replacement. I hope this helps. Please update thread to tell us what works. Every case is different with this one.

Ti know the exact reason, do these:
1. Charge your battery through a battery charger. Check whether it charges.
2. Flash new kernels. (i prefer thjap kernel). Now wipe battery stats frim xrecovery. Reboot and put to charge. Check its behavior now.
3. Insert the battery in other handsets and check.
You will come to know whether its your battery or kernel or motherboard that's creating problem.
Once solved, calibrate your battery. One important thing.... Use ac charger instead of usb.

I would suggest
Switch off your mobile and charge your fone till you see 100% on your screen, then switch on, keep charging till you get a notification that it's fully charged. When you finally get that notification, quickly run the battery calibration tool. I hope this solves your battery problem.
Im gonna try it, thank u very much

Hi, yesterday I installed CM7 on my android, all went well, very awesome.
Soon the LED Light messed up when I would plug the phone in via usb.
The LED had colors that were like mixed and all.
Searched on Google, and found nothing... So I then did the whole process over (wiped data...) And near the last step I wiped data instead of wiping cache.
It was like 5 in the am and I got sleepy so when I restarted the phone(Of course it would take a while), I went to lie down, then fell asleep. Woke up and my phone was still at the Motorola Logo screen. I also seen that I forgot to put it on the charger before went to sleep.
Long story short, My phone won't get past the logo screen, I would try to go back to 2.2 sbf but when I get into the bootloader screen the battery low cannot program.. error comes up.
Yeah, I explained practically everything..
What can I do to get it back to normal, so I can get CM7 back?
I only got to enjoy 20 minutes of the rom...
My phone: Motorola Bravo

You need to charge your battery some how? Does it charge at all
Do you know someone with phone?
If not ask for a battery replacement from at&t store and hope it has enough charge

My thought on charging was when the phone is off and you charge it, it goes to the charging screen, then eventually the display turns off.
Instead of that, it just stays at the Motorola Logo screen..
I've also had it on the charger for about 4 hours now. Still remaining at the logo screen, BUT it has also gotten warm..Maybe that means its charging? (right??)
2. Since I've moved, nope. Don't know anyone that has this phone and is near me.
3. Battery Replacement. It's 1am here so, I guess I'll just keep it on the charge till the morningmorning..
I could do the bootloader sbf back to froyo thing but since the phone's battery is dead to the max, I get the error, meaning I can't do that option.
I'll call my local AT&T store to see if I could get a battery replacement if I can't get it to turn on to at least the Recovery or bootloader.
Pain.. pain in my brain.
try to get it plugged in w/ no logo, to ensure it's off off... if not you might have to let it sit off the charger till it's dead enough that it doesn't try to boot...
i think it's trying to boot, but boot looping and not aquiring enough of a charge,
do you have it on a wall charger? make sure it's like 800 mah or higher, i think the phone comes with a 5.1v 800mah which was weird to me tha tit was 5.1 cause all other phones are 5.0 but anyway maybe you're not getting enough of a current to it to overcome the drain from the bootloop?
Are you able to get into custom recovery? (Do you see the blue LED at any point when the phone begins to try to power on?)
You have soft bricked your phone, so the only way to get it working is to sbf back to 2.2. The problem is, the bootloader doesn't allow you to sbf if your battery is below a certain point. You need to either get that battery charged or get a new one.
If you can't get anything at your store, I will cross-ship/trade you a charged battery (1 year old) for your current one and $3 for shipping? Let me know if you'd be interested in something like that...
I also bought a battery from Amazon (OEMShop or something), and I think it came 40%ish charged... You could try your luck?
Just so you understand the charging, Android uses the OS to monitor the charging. If the phone is bricked it doesn't charge… plain and simple. It sucks if you try to sbf after the battery is drained, but the only thing you can do is get another one. Hope your search for one comes up well.

Yeah..no.. I'll be getting a replacement phone (same one). Basically in 4 to 6 days..
I'm so happy, my phone kept restarting anyway when using data.. But yeah, thanks though.
Before you send other phone back... sbf with other battery back to stock.

My replacement phone came in the mail earlier this afternoon! Thanks for all the help you guys. Glad I came here. So excited, just 10% more and it's fully charged.
I think I may get a extra battery just in case for my phone. Great post!
This just happened to me too. I thought what to do...
Spliced one of my old car phone chargers and hooked it to my phone battery... plugged it into my car fir 5 minutes and was charged enough to sbf.
Don't recommend it if you don't know what your doing

Guys its me again.
Flashed Pre-Rooted DDJP6 and G3MOD 1.8 extreme kernel.
Charged for 2 hours, After that taken my phone out of charging suddenly battery started draining to 10% and phone switched off. i waited for a while and restarted phone battery was 80% and suddenly 10% again and phone switched off.
In the past i had been changing rom since last 4-5 days from Kyrillos to Indroid to XXPJF to DDJP6.
Kindly tell me what is the issue?? Many suggest to calibrate, when we calibrate we have to drain it in reality and recharge it to 100% but my phone if showing fake battery it drains instantly so how do we really drain it and re-charge??
I want to solve this problem asap. As my phone is almost unusable, i suspected SETCPU is causing this so i uninstalled it but still no use.
Please help i don't want to re-flash the rom and lose the data again
There is a high possibility that your battery is damaged since, as I understood, this problem persists in more than one roms.
sent from my CM7 nokia 3210
Switched it off for a 20-25 Minutes.
Switched on since last 2hours 3minutes and Mobile WIFI ROUTER AP in use since then.
still 22% Left. Dont understand , sometimes works very well and sometimes what a lag. I would let it drain and then charge fully.. Hope it works

first change the kernel to G3MOD v1.9 lite. be rooted. using root explorer delete batterystats.bin or install BatteryCallibration.apk charge upto 100% then let it drain. use battery monitor widget to check health and voltage of the battery. report it here. if health is good and voltage is >4150mV, u are good.
Actually its such an pain to again n again change the kernel i can't doo al data2sd and stuf again
btw i had cleared battery stats from the recovery so i don't have a stats.bin file when i tried batterycallibration it said the files is missing.
Sometimes battery works nicely and sometimes it lags usually at night what solution we have for this?
Battery was running fine at 100% on some tough work for an hour or so. Its rocking
So lets experiment , see the log below ->
SETCPU set to on demand max 1Ghz.
11:33 = Battery 100% , SETCPU setting on boot, wifi on , fb chat on , opera on.
11:41 - Battery at 74% FB CHAT off now installed operamini.. let me browse SETCPU still on
11:52 - Battery at 61% , Opera On , Setcpu modified to SAVE POWER.
11:54 - Battery still at 61% but phone is lagging more then it was before SETCPU. So i have uninstalled setcpu and kept my phone for charging. Lets see how much time it takes to fully charge..
I have reached the conclusion that SETCPU is the cause of problem
Even after SETCPU problem persists... drained it once and charged for about 1 hour , was showing BATTERY FULL... took it off charger switched on, was 100% kept in pocket in idle condition. 10-15 minutes passed by took it out and was down to 80 then to 50 in next 15-20 minutes without any work... What's gng on some1 help
Don't use extreme kernel .it damages ur battery. Try performance if u r looking for oc. And extreme is not a stable kernel.

Best kernel........????
Well there are 2 kernel which are just awesome ......G3mod 2.0 b3......and Fugumod kernel......
U can flash any one of them.....
I personally prefer Fugumod....but it's your choice coz both are fantastic....
Flash the new kernel and clear the battery stats....calliberate....and Setcpu doesn't harm your battery....
Even i am thinking about FUGUMOD.. does it include Recovery , app2sd ,data2sd and stuff.
If yes can you tell me which version exactly of FuGuMOD is the best for non lag stable superb experience ??
M using DDJP6 pre-rooted with superuser and i don't want to format and wipe stuff again.. lots of apps are dere and internal memory is still 800mb empty so will it b impacted if i flash a kernel?

If the batttery gets swollen, it means it is near the end of its lifetime. If it is swollen so much that you cant put your back cover on, it is time to change your battery. i would recommend you not to use your phone with that battery and get a new one ASAP.
Just to clear things out, fugumod doesn't include CWM recovery nor does it include app2sd script. You have to do this manually unless you are using a custom ROM which has this preloaded such as kyrillos' ROM.

It is weird that it happened on this phone. I CAUTION you STRONGLY not to use that battery as it may damage your phone, leave aside blasting and all.
I would also recommend you to take more care of the phone as in, not left in charge for way too long, not overclocked constantly at very very high speeds continuously, and also to check where you keep you phone while charging (dont keep it on heat emitting stuffs like stabilizers, fan regulators etc) Change your battery of course.
Looks like the problem is You. It is neither the battery nor SetCPU. You skipped some basic stuffs, ignored the governor scaling of setCPU and now just pay some attention and if you do, you got yourself a solution!

Nope its the battery only I checked it a mobile expert and saw the battery a bit swollen so its definitely a battery issue. I set the right profiles and governor while using setcpu. Maybe overcharging must have damaged my battery.

Hey guys I need a little troubleshooting help from the community! I have a rooted(of course) mt4g. Recently I have been having an issue that I think may be battery related. Dont think its rom related but just for info, it happened to me on darkside ROM and capy's port, both sense 3.5. I thought it was a kernel or overclock/voltage problem but it happens on any kernel and i dont mess with voltages nor overclock more than stock. So now to the problem:
My phone randomly just shuts off at times. Usually when I'm on the phone or even when I'm just scrolling on a screen! I have noticed that when I go into recovery it shows me a battery percentage at the top but when I boot the phone without the charger connected, the rom shows a much lower percentage! However if I boot the phone with the charger connected, the rom shows the same percentage as recovery does! I have the battery calibration app from the market and used that as well as wiping batt stats from recovery and nothing has worked! So with that, I'm thinking I have a fried battery! Any thoughts or help would be greatly appreciated! If more info is needed, I will be happy to answer!

From reading this, i can say it's likely the battery, but a suggestion would be to try another battery on your phone before jumping to conclusions...i've had my phone reboot itself several times, especially when i first bought the phone, but has stopped.. am currently using the Darkside Rom as well.. there's an updated version 4.0 out.... so try another battery.Also not to bash any app developer, but 4ext recovery battery stats basically does the same things as the other battery app used..For me, i shut down my phone, and plug it till i get the green light(100%), then take out the battery, wait like 1minute, put it back have the charger plugged in, reboot in recovery clear battery stats.. reboot when fully booted take out the charger..it should be good..i don't do this all the time, but i noticed doing this helps my battery in terms of fully charging..
Thanks! I will try your method while i'm waiting on the battery I ordered to come in.

Hi all, I am facing a strange problem, my phone is switching off automatically indicating low battery. However when I plug in charger battery indicator gives battery more than 50% sometimes close to 75%. I've tried a lot of ROM's mostly based on great work by Marcellusbe CM7.2 Alpha 8.3. Following are the list of ROM's I've tried and faced the same issue
GB:
AOSP GINGERBREAD STYLE ROM
CyanogenMod 7.2.0-RC3
Kyrillos' ROM 10.5
Currently Using : Pranjal's ROM
KISADWORX ROM v7.2.1
ICS:
ICS AOSP/CM9 (Alpha)
AOKP/CM9
All ROM's are fast and good, fits my requirement. But this battery off issue is there in all for me.
But battery indicator while charging in power off mode is always always showing battery level higher than 50%.
Help me out here. I need battery backup that can at least work for 1 full day.
Help me. Something is definitely wrong.
P.S. Also tried this with new battery. So no battery issue.

Thanks for the help. Not exactly what I am looking for. Everything isn't always simple as it looks to.
I am posting this after trying all possibilities in past 2-3 weeks.
Same happening with me also. Specially when I am taking pictures or videos.. taking into account the battery is quite old .. but calling time is still moderate.. but gallery/camera are consuming enormous charge,,
I've also had this issue for quite some time with different ROMs. Right now I'm using Kyrillos 9.6 OC for daily use and I don't have that battery indicator jumps anymore. Maybe you can try that ROM to check if it's a software or hardware problem.
