I did a search here, and most issues ive read similar to this is because the battery is old, and can be recalibrated.
however, i noticed mine shuts down and turns off at around 13-15% and its just a week old.
anyone else having the same problem? or is this a problem at all?
There was another person on here, his was shutting down at 25% but he was rooted and unsure if the issue lie with the rom.

I did saw a battery calibration tool here but it needs to be rooted and need to reflash rom,
don't really want to reflash rom,
although battery does last about 7-9 hrs of active usage before it goes to 15% then it dies after that.
My unit does something similar,at when it hits about 7%. It shuts down and won't boot or do a hard reset, as if the battery is dead. I'm already going through with an RMA however for the screen. When the replacement arrives (any day now) I'm going to see if that one does it too.
Hopefully a software update will be ale to fix this.

Anyone else having the same issue? want to know if i'll ask for a replacement, or just stick with it.
Im actually overseas, and sending it back will be expensive.
Mine does this too at around 11-12%. Was watching a video, got the low battery warning at 11%, then it just turned off. I'm already RMAing it for ghosting and screen separation - think mine was assembled at 4:59pm on a Friday.

All was well untill i was off on holiday for a week. I had kept my nexus 7 on standby ti check how the battery fairs. Anyway, while using it, it suddenly switched off at 14% battery. I then charged it to 100% and started using it.
After using it for 30mins there was no change in battery % n it still showed 100% ( weird i know ). Eventually it started depleting as normal until it got down to 14% n shutdown. Then it wouldn't charge when plugged in anywhere, had to press the power button foe 30sec or more for it to boot up again.
Now my question is, Is there a way to fix the faulty battery indication without rooting the device? (And i know you all will be thinking of suggesting a factort reset, but i don't want to lose my gaming progress).
Any suggestions will be helpful.
Thanks.

I have had a few N7 that exhibit this behavior. Also haven't figured out a way to fix it either, I exchanged the early ones I had and the C8 I have now goes at 8% as well and to avoid it, I just charge before it hits 20%. I know its not a fix and now that I've flashed the new 4.1.2 I am waiting to run it thru a charge to see if maybe it was a bug with JRO03D.
Here are a few threads I've posted in where I've seen people talk about the same thing, nobody actually knows or has posted a fix other than to exchange and hope the new one doesn't do it:

Hey I've searched for help on the subject all over and. I'm not seeing anyone with this problem, on the contrary everyone seems to be doing better.
Anyway I got the OTA update to 4.2.2 from the. General forum a few days ago and flashed it without much consequence and everything seemed fine. I reaquired my root but I have noticed my battery is losing charge way too fast doing light browsing and use.
Checking battery use I got 2 hours of screen time with 30% of the battery and again this has been simply browsing sites with pure text. As I'm writing this it went from 70% to 68%
To list a few key things that have happened that might be important and I'm hoping anybody can help or give advice.
1) I stupidly forgot to wipe cache and dalvik before and after flashing the update, when I remembered I went to recovery and did this
2) I rerooted
3) On Friday I fell asleep using it and when I woke up it was completely drained, honestly I don't even remembered what I was doing cause I had a bit too much wine but I think I was playing an emulator and when I woke up it wouldn't even turn on so I charged it back to 100%
As I write this now I think back and problem seems to have started then.
I tried re flashing a backup, which didn't help and I flashed franco kernel reading it gave good battery.
My last idea is simply reverting back to stock and see if it helps but before that I wanted to check some opinions or advice here.
PS I have already used BBS and its finding nothing wrong in wakelocks or use (except something called AudioOut2)
As I finish this im down to 66%, definitely not normal.
Any help is appreciated.

Did you at some point let it drain completely to 0% after updating to 4.2.2?
If nobody has any idea ill just go back to stock and report results.
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk HD
Well if anybody has a similar issue or cares, going back to stock seems to have fixed the issue. Regardless I did some light testing on the battery. It shows marginal better perfomance on 4.2.2
By switching Kernel there was no change it seems but then again the test only covered two activities perhaps with further comparissons better results would be gotten.
But long story short if anybody has this problem apparently going back to stock is the way to go.
I'll keep a careful eye on the battery and gauge on regular use and if it happens again have a better idea of what caused it.
Its a program that's running or not completely shutting down.
Torrent was my issue. Uninstalled rebooted and then reinstalled.
My battery life is good now.all day and still over 80%.

Well I have encountered a completely new problem lately.
In the last week this has happened 3-4 times. I leave it charging or simply on deep sleep for a while and when I try to turn it on it won't, I'm not sure if its shutting down since when I plugged it in (thinking battery had drained) not battery charging animation came up, instead I left the power button pressed and it came up with whatever charge it had.
Not sure if its a side effect of the original problem of the battery discharge or something to do with torrent clients as 3 of the total times it has happened I was downloading something and left it running.
Not sure what to do at this point since I find no info on this or it happening to anybody else. What I find are things like it not charging etc which really arent my issues.
I will avoid using torrents on it for a few days and see if it happens again, if it does I will seriously have to consider contacting Google or Asus since this device doesn't even have 90 days in my possession yet.
If anyone is following this (really just posting here to help anybody who finds the same problem and as a sort of journal) I found this post on the kernel im running thread
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=38422891&postcount=4603
Somebody replied to that post stating its a 4.2.x problem
It could also be a kernel problem with torrents as further down the posts another person complains about the same happening when using a bittorrent client
I'll post with whatever I find out.
I've been having the same problem glad to see it isn't just me.

Hi Chaps, Since my upgrade to 4.2.2 I thought the battery life was great. It stayed at 100% for ages and when I was streaming music for a few of hours and the battery only went to 96%. Superb I thought..
But, yes there is a but. My N7 now shuts down when the battery is at 32% and I need to charge it to get it to reboot as it is well drained. Is it possible to zero the battery indicator or recalibrate it for an accurate reading? TATA R.

Battery calibration, which should be done rarely, is merely a matter of putting your device through one complete charge/discharge cycle. Don't waste your time with battery calibration apps, as they are 100% snake oil. Likewise, you can disregard any misinformation about wiping battery stats, as that has absolutely no bearing on battery charge indication.
Try unplugging your battery for a few minutes, and then plug it back in, ensuring that the connector is firmly seated.
Getting pissed off here. N7 shuts down at 42% now. WTF. Is this a 4.2.2 problem? If so how do I revert back to an earlier version?

I am seeing reduced battery life on 4.2.2...
I used to be able to go all day on a charge. Now I can't make it through the evening ...
I know that is subjective as I didn't indicate my prior usage compared to my current usage pattern.
But my perception is that battery life has degraded ...
As an aside, I noticed that an el-cheapo IKEA power strip didn't provide enough juice to keep the battery from draining further while using it when plugged in...
It plugged in at 20% and kept using the N7... awhile later I was in the mid-teens.
I don't use that power strip any longer....

Help people, I have the nexus 4 for over 3 weeks and great but a few days ago when it was nearly full battery (around 80% or so) suddenly shutted down and I couldn't turn it back on until after 1 min or so plugging in. I did not care about it the first time ... But today, after having it charging about 2 or 3 hours I disconnected the cable to use the phone and the battery dropped from 90%+ to 8%, so I connected the cable and put it back to 100%, used it for 1 hour and it suddenly dropped back to 2% from 80% and then shutted down instantly.
Here are some screens.

What apps have you installed lately, maybe there is a rogue one. Install BetterBatteryStats for app behaviour and Cpu Spy for deep sleep issues.
Are you rooted? Custom rom or kernel? Undervolted or overclocked?

I see nothing abnormal on usage, just use the phone and see if this behaviour continues. If it does better do a factory reset or reflash the latest factory image.

I wish I could be more help but I had the exact same issue. I could not figure out what was wrong with it but I had previously broken the screen and sent my N4 back to LG for repair. Since it was still under limited warrenty from that repair I sent it back to them again. They said they replaced the charger connector. I got it back and it seems to work fine now.
My issue started after I updated to 4.2.2 I believe. I don't know the root of it but my advice would be to do what you said and call Google or LG.

Similar issue here - I've been using the same apps since I first installed them after N4 purchase (meaning no new apps/games installed in the last few days and no settings changed). Took a nap for a couple of hours and woke up to see N4 completely dead - 0% batt. Charging it now and looking at partial wakelocks etc, havn't seen anything out of the ordinary. Hopefully it doesn't occur again but in the meantime still looking for a reason why this would suddenly happen.

Yeah, am on stock JB 4.2.2, unlocked and rooted though, no other change like new roms flashed or anything. I use the stock charger and charge through mains.
I think there have been a few threads with this issue and nexus4s even prior to 4.2.2 and supposedly it was hardware. I called support while talking it through she had heard a few similar cases and it seems to be a hardware/software design issue. My wonder is how can I enforce 'never deep sleep' because my kernel doesn't seem obey.
I woke up this morning with the indicator light on but phone dead requiring reset (charged though - if not overly so). Just now it died again while sitting on my desk at 80% charge and deep sleeping again.

I've read in a few places today the stock charger has been causing a lot of the charging issues and plan to switch to my old g2's charger tonight
Just RMA'd my nexus for powering off for no reason - would do it a few times a week (and extremely buzzing earpiece - which I was living with), never had a problem putting it back on though or had issues by battery levels being eratic) did quite a bit of testing over the space of a few weeks and found it continued to do it after wiping/fomatting everything and on Stock 4.2.2 non rooted and locked BL. As far as I am concerned if its still doing it with the stock out of the box set up its a hardware fault.

Dunno about that its up to you mine was doing it 2-3 times per week. I would wipe everything including userdata, reflash stock rom and monitor before going through the rigmorole of the RMA to make sure its deffo a hardware fault. Biggest problem with the RMA is the fact they put a hold on your credit/debit card for the price of the phone. So basically if you don't have the funds available you are shafted (I think you would have to send off to LG in that case).
I got the same problem ..just that my n4 back cracked while was charging :-\
maybe you should try to flash other kernel and rom if you cant solve this issus. if your N4 is unrooted then just bring it to LG store, you got warranty rite ?
Since last week I am experiencing a really strange behavior of my battery.
Sometimes my phone (in a random app) just vibrates, the screen goes black and then it reboots. After the reboot I have lost 40-50% battery life. Sometimes the phones isn't even able to complete the reboot because it spontaneously has too little power left. See attached screenshots.
Has anybody had similar problems? Or knows a solution?
About my setup: The problem seems to be not rom or kernel related. It occurs no matter what rom or kernel setting I am using. Currently I am running coool boy's 4.3 GE witch KT's kernel (no OC or UV).
Is it possible that the battery is physically damaged? I have NO IDEA...

I've seen the same sort of graph on my old i9000. You're not gonna like this, but it got worse over time, and eventually my battery wouldn't last more than 5 mins. I thought buying a new battery would help, but it didn't. When I sent it in to Samsung they said they would have to replace the entire motherboard...
I think it's got something to do with the motherboard not being able to correctly sense the battery voltage/whatever/%. The phone reboots automatically because it thinks the battery is flat (even though it isn't).
If you're under warranty I suggest sending it in soon... Hopefully it's not the same as what I had heh.

Well *#!$
I'll observate it for the next few days and see if it's getting worse...
If your phone is rebooting as opposed to just powering off, then I suspect it is hardware related (motherboard) as already mentioned.
I do hope I'm wrong though.
Maybe try using it for extended periods while plugged into a charger and see what happens. If it doesn't reboot then it may just be the battery.
Right as OP I'm suffering the same exact problem or there abouts. I've flashed back to stock rom, fully charged to 100% drained to 0% back to 100% yet still phone keeps shutting off randomly and the only way it works properly is with the charger plugged in. It's escalated quite badly with now after a few mins of YouTube turning itself off and not rebooting. I've requested a repair by o2 who I'm in contract with and see what will happen. I've heard crap stories about their repairs before taking it to Samsung.
I9500 owner. Had this exact same problem when using older firmware. After updating to the latest one, never had this issue again. Its been two months now, even more.
Try this. Flash the latest available firmware for you phone, not talking about OTA but the downloadable one from any region (whichever is latest for i9505). I guess it may have something to do with the kernel too.
Edit: wait a minute, why is your battery level going up when it isn't even charging in the second screenshot. Middle of the battery timeline. That's weird. I guess you should send the phone back

Hey
I am new here.
but i was looking for information becuase my s4 9505i has the same problem
shuts of almost everytime i open apps too quickly or stream youtube or some other high usage apps etc.
battery drops up to 50 percent then back 40 percent then to 0 percent, the fact it that the phone never seems to know where the battery is.
by the way my phone is not rooted and i have done the factory reset a few times.
samsung... hmmm.. they seem to be real hard to talk to on the phone, i have had to call them 4 times already about the s4 i ahve had since june, and they just play me off like i am some kind of idiot etc. and deny that there is possibly any reason for random shutdowns, phone freezing, and now this battery/motherboard issue.
next bit is kinda stupid, the phone has a few internal scratches on it from when i ahve stupidly had the phone next to keys and all that. im sure they are going to try and void my warranty and say i have mistreated the phone...
had many phones before, maybe close to 50 and never, never, never have had to ring up a company to try and complain etc.....
any ideas.
I am in Australia,
I am thinking of trying the CONSUMER AFFAIRS kind of threats, but i have to word it the right way...
Hi all,
First post so go easy :angel:
I've had my N4 for about 18 months. Ever since 4.4.3 (now on 4.4.4 and nothings changed) I think I have been having some probelms.....I also dropped my phone around the time of the update so can't rule out a hardware problem, anyway....
On full charge the phone is, after a random amount of use perhaps around half battery, it drops signal completely....then it start goiing crazy, opening apps clicking on things (sometimes locks up) then shuts it's self off.
Once I turn it back on it says the battery is almost out.....even though before the crash it was at 50%???? (Please see imnage below for "cliff edge" on battery screen shot!)
I have tried safe mode, I have done a factory reset and removed all and any apps except facebook. Other symptoms include forgeting wifi and other account logins!
Also worth noteing I dropped it and smashed the screen, I then had it repaired and voided the warrenty (?) because I needed it same day for work.....dont know if thats connected was working fine for a while after this happened.
I have seen various posts of this forum and other about this kind of thing but no exact answers.....any help would be great 7 months until free new phone
Sudden drop is extreme right....
Re flash factory images for a full wipe, if it doesn't work after that then its probably hardware (sadly), maybe you could get a moto g? I've heard there really good and cheap.

Sounds like something went wrong during the repair or drop and that this is a hardware issue. As suggested, try flashing full stock, but I am pretty sure this is a hardware problem, unfortunately.

It could definitely be a possibility. If you are up to it, you could purchase a new battery and try to replace it, there is just the risk of damaging something further.

Same thing is happening to my wifes NEXUS 4. Hers is a little over a year old now. It was dropped and I replaced the screen a few months ago, but ever since the new updates, her phone has been going CRAZY!
The phone randomly loses signal, battery drains quickly and apps open close (ghost touches) and then it shuts down.
I've cleared the cache, reset to factory defaults and even run in safe mode and nothing. The phone is useless now, she maybe gets 2 hours of normal use out of it before it goes completely nuts again.
One of us should roll back to 4.2.2. and report the result

Facing similar issues. Have posted it here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-4/help/fast-battery-discharge-t2799931/post53790262?nocache=1
Any solutions?
I am waiting for a new battery. Try rollback to 4.2.2.
ITs same on my phone after an 4.4.3 update teh N4 gone rogue before the update it was working just fine I just did factory reset got back to 4.2.1 android and its doing the same
Just to keep you up to speed...I suspect it may be the battery....or perhaps power management issue/conflict??
Trick is if I keep my battery charge above 60-65% it's fine......get below that and the trouble start.....weird. hvaing said that seems to drain faster than normal also. My hope are pinned on battery solution once Rajnus trys it.
Although not looking foward to taking phone apart to replace it
Today after the first symptom I rebooted phone and after reboot my battery was at 14%. It looks like to me that we have constant drain but system some how is not registering it properly. I will restart after every 10%
Edit: 85% ->reboot -> 57%

I'm glad to see I'm not the only one suffering from this issues as well. I replaced my screen and digitizer about 3 months ago and never had issues. Last week I updated from 4.4.2 to 4.4.3 (and 4.4.4 shortly after) and started having the same issues where there would be ghost touches on the screen once I got to around 70% battery, loss of radio/signal, and when I would restart the phone, I would lose majority of the battery charge. I tried flashing stock back on the phone and the problem still is present.

Just to repeat that is exactly what is happening to me word for word.
