Hey Everyone,
I was wondering if anyone could help me out. I'm using the AOKP Rooty rom and my phone seems to be having a charging issue. After the battery charges to 100% and it's been sitting on the charger for a while, it has a serious drain to about 25-30%. I have to power down and remove the battery to get a good charge going again. It first started with Zips rom so I switched to the Rooty rom. It started fine for a few days, but the charging issue started again. I brought a new battery just in case my old one crapped out, but it's still doing the same thing. I've wiped the battery stats with no luck. I did see there were similar issues on the forum, but I could not find a solution. If I missed one.. Sorry about about that. I am working on the set up for SnakeS battery boost, but I did notice that the Android System was using 47% of the battery. Is that normal? Thanks for the help.
Lesson learned
Lesson learned....double check the cable to make sure it is not faulty.

Okay so i've updated to Cyanogen 5.0 beta 2 no problems installed 2.6.32 then went back down to 2.6.29.6 and extra ram works and everything but now my phone wont charge the battery.
I'm quite sad as this is the problem, someone mentioned to let the charge die and then try charging it then. So i did that and now its stuck at 0 and when i remove the charger it instantly dies. Only one other member had the same problem but he hasn't replied to my pm or the thread yet so i'll wait for him as he had this abit earlier.
I've done multiple wipes, reinistalls, nandbackups and now i'm too afraid to do anymore flashing as the phone's battery is on 0%. If at any point it requires phone battery to flash it will die and i'll have a brick.
Hopefully someone out there might have a solution
I dont think its a ROM problem since you wiped. Perhaps its a hardware problem?
i dont know. Does anyone know if its safe to flash? As in if the charger is in it should be okay right?
Okay i think i'm screwed for awhile. The battery is drop dead and now i cant enter bootloader mode. Theres a orange led at top indicating its still working but wont enter bootloader due to insufficient power. Damn i was going to try to flash it
Now i need someone with either a nexus one or another battery

Have you tried another charger or the USB cable?
Same problem here
I'm experiencing the same problem myself.
Installed Cyanogenmod 5.0b2, everything worked fine for the day.
tried JIT, had reboots, reverted back to fast
Upgraded to .32 kernel, my sdcard wasn't compatible so re flashed 5.0b2
called it an evening, my battery was full but I plug it into the charger overnight since it's my alarm clock.
Yesterday morning on the way to work, was playing music and noticed my battery had jumped from full down to around 12% in 30minutes. plugged it into car charger, and while it didn't drop anymore it didn't charge either.
Left it in pc usb charger off and on all day where the off times it dropped down to around 9% and never got above it. Eventually let it die on the way home thinking I'll re train the battery.
Left it off and plugged into wall charger for 4 hours, but batter stays at 0%
I'm glad I didn't sell my Dev G1 yet, as at least I have a working phone for the moment.
FYI I ran into this same problem running superboot himem on ERE27. My battery died and then nothing would charge it, even sitting it on AC power for 8 hours (while I slept) when I woke up my battery was stuck at 0% and would auto shutdown if I unplugged it.
I nandroid restored to stock ERE27 and immediately my battery started again. I think there might be some weird problem with himem mods. Not sure. Just to be safe I am totally over flashing custom stuff on my phone. My phone is too important to me to risk stuff like this happening.
After installing boyppc Ginger_sense rom my phone froze, I had to take the battery out and put it back in. After taking it out I could no longer get the phone to turn on unless it was plugged into the charger.
Once it's powered up the phone will say my battery is 100%, however when I disconnect it from the charger it dies. I've attempted to switching to a different rom with no avail.
Help please.
Note: I own two batteries and the same thing has happened to both, so I doubt both my batteries are messed up (plus the fact that one of them is only a month old).
Also, I use CWM roms.
Edit: Note: Fixed issue by removing battery while plugged into charge and then reinserting.
Try doing a Nandroid backup, perform a task 29 and flash a WinMo rom...see if it happens there as well...
^
Will try now.
Problem remains after task 29, what should I do?
are your battery pins not bend a little?
same issue
Hello im having the same problem, but I have a huawei ascend android, n mine started last sunday. Now I don't believe its the battery, it working fine Sunday morning, the battery says
96% n I havent downloaded anything. Can u help me too thanks
Basic Info: I'm currently running **[4.2.2][CM10.1][LINARO]Team Asylum CM10.1 Nighty, build date April 18 (Had recently flashed lastest nightly, then started noticing my charging issue, and flashed an earlier version to see if that would fix it.. it didn't).
The problem: I let my phone on my wireless Energizer Qi charger overnight. Charging indicator lights all went on, and I went to bed. I woke up the next morning and noticed that the phone was only at 37%. Putting the phone on the wireless charger, i noticed it will light up, then turn off, then light up, then turn off. Figured, something wrong with the charger/case, so I removed the case and tried again, same thing. Tried attaching to computer via USB, and the same thing happened, the connection dropped in and out. Now I have it attached to wall outlet, and the same thing is happening, especially if I move it around.
I managed to get it to a consistent charge (says USB though its plugged into wall..) by leaning the phone up against something, but if I move it it cuts out...
I first was thinking maybe there's something wrong with the microusb port, like what happened with my HTC Evo after a while.. but the same thing happens with the wireless charging.. So, I'm not sure what to do.. Whether it's a rom issue, a hardware issue, a kernal issue.. Any thoughts on what I should do? Wipe battery stats?.. RMA?.. Complete nandroid restore?
Adding: I have Snapdragon Battery Guru on there.. if that's relevant to anything.. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.xiam.snapdragon.app&hl=en

UPDATE. Flashed francos milestone 2, and the problem seems to have disappeared.
UPDATE 2: jk it's still doing it.
I've had the same issue for about a month now. I removed the snapdragon battery guru app and it doesn't do it as often now but it will still do it. I also calibrated my battery with a battery calibration app when it became fully charged and now it will only do it about once every three days. I don't really have any other advice than that, all I know is that my phone started doing it after I finally caved and flashed a kernel.

I have the same issue and I'm completely stock and unrooted. I will wake up in the morning and the battery is at, say, 80%. Unplugging the a/c and plugging it back in doesn't help at all. I have battery widget reborn and it tells me my battery is charging at 1% per 30 minutes. This morning I hooked it up to my HTC 8X charger and it immediately started charging correctly so I'm inclined to believe it may be the charger but it could've been coincidence since other times unplugging and replugging it works. Some other times I have to power off and then on in order for it to work again.
Hi, I bought N7 (2012) 16 GB in December 2013 and suddenly it's charging went slow. At times, it just charges 5% after plugging in for 5-6 hours. I've no idea what's happening with it. Any clue?
Same here.
E.g. last night I turned it off at appr. 30%, plugged in the charger and in den morning it was at about 50%.
I am on PACman Rom 22.1.0
there has many issues about fast battery drain after kitkat especially about N7. There is no definite fix for this but you can try not to let it decharge under %30-35 because the lower battery is the longer it charges.. good luck with pluging and unpluging the charger a few times in out in out , it helps they said.

No, my case is something else. Everything was working fine and this problem happened suddenly one day. At times, while charger is plugged in, if I play game, battery starts to drain even when it's charging. There has to be some problem with the battery but I ask why did this happen and that too suddenly.
Get gsam from play store and see what's eating your battery. Or post screens here.
If you're rooted, you need gsam root companion as well. Shows more details then.
Otherwise we're all just guessing.
Mine started doing that just yesterday. I updated twrp today and did a wipe of everything, went to reboot, now it will not turn on at all. Won't even charge. I got it to turn on finally but it won't go back into recovery. Just gets stuck on the part when you first turn it on.

Here's something crazy! I unplugged the battery for a few hours, plugged in the power cable, tried turning it on (didn't work for obvious reasons lol), then plugged the battery pack in. Now it's charging fine and was able to boot into recovery.

So this problem first started when I first flashed boeffia's kernel on top of the official cyanogenmod. The only thing i changed was the kcal settings (I like a little over-saturation). But, since then, my oneplus two charges very slowly no matter what i do. I even set the charging current to 1250 in the app, but still, it was taking almost 5-6 hours to charge fully; and even then, it would not go to 100%, but stay at 92-94 and stop charging altogether. Tried draining the battery, deleting the batterystats file, nothing.
Frustrated, I switched to Resurrection Remix today, a rom that ran perfectly in the past. Plugged the phone into the wall, apps updating over LTE. after a few minutes, I saw the percentage dropping from 36 to 33 and just staying there.
Currently the phone is off, and the battery has only gone up to 12% from 10% in the last 30 minutes.
Anyone ever face this problem? Any help at all would be much appreciated.
P.S. I only flashed the rom and Gapps(mini). nothing extra.
edit- It's been two hours now and the battery's at 18%
edit 2- Battery at 20% after 3 hours. I've turned on the "show battery percentage on lockscreen" in RR. Now I don't know how accurate that is, but it's showing "charging at 1500 mAh/hour max". Now I'm literally pulling my hair at this.
I faced a similar problem after flashing dirty unicorns
Well i solved it by clean flash oxygen os 3.0.2 and changing the charging adapter it solved my problem and i flashed other roms like bean stalk.rr i dint have charging issue anymore

Trying to flash OOS 3.1.0 now... Also, I noticed, after leaving the phone plugged in, the percentage at the charging screen said 43%, but after turning it on, it was just 27%. So it's just a software side problem. Just maybe. It ain't easy getting reliable usb-c cables where I live.
P.S.- did you fully discharge/charge again after flashing? Also, nowadays we can directly flash OOS from CM with the official TWRP, right? (Haven't tried OOS in 6 months)
followup- Flashed OOS 3.1.0. Still not solved. Charging still too slow.
Also, since I have access to engineering mode (#808#), I can see that the phone is charging at an avg of 220mA from the wall.
Is my cable busted?
Currently it's going up 1% an hour(while off)
If the cable is indeed busted, can someone suggest an replacement? Idon't seem to be able to find any in amazon India.

I clean flashed the oos rom. charged it all night when morning it was 100 percent i did a battery calibration which u can find in playstore.i let the battery to drain with normal usage now i changed the charging adapter i think its 2.4amp charger i dont think there is problem with usb cable.its charging at normal speed if screen off will charge fast like 10-100 percent in 2 hrs
Guys stop wasting time flashing go directly to the cable/carger.
Battery calibration is practical useless

Solved. It was the cable. Tried a MI5 cable and "pass" finally showed up in engineering mode.
Have contacted service, will get a replacement later this week
