Hi I looked but couldent find another thread of this but my battery will go from about 40% down to 3% but then as soon as I plug it in it an it charges 1% and goes back up to the % it came down from, it did this on multiple roms along with stock from. Does anyone else have this problem and if so is there a way to fix? Thanks.

You could try to recalibrate your battery.
There's a nice program found in the market called battery calibration by nema.
You should have root acces to use this program.
Good luck

hey i have the same problem. ? Did you find a solution?
Hi, i think it was asked before, but couldnt find it anywhere so im posting my problem with battery.
I will start from the beginning:
So i installed kyrillos 10.5 and i noticed, that my battery level goes to 5% it sticks there for about an hour and thought that i should calibrate my battery. I insalled battery calibration app, charged my phone hit the magic button. I waited for the phone to shut down on its own and it was just like before. I charged my phone and than booted it. Everything was ok, but when the pone shut down at 33% when i wasnt expecting it i got worried. So then i booted my phone without charging, it booted and intantly shut down. Booted it again and was at 5% and used it for a hour or so. So what is the problem? What should i do?
Sorry for my bad english

You should buy a new battery or download something from Google Play " Battery Callibration"
i think flashing a roms reduce battery life...

the problem can be the battery, even if it's a new one.
I tried two other batteries, and the problem had continued.
I think the other ones was fake/old batteries, but sold as original and new.
Thanks for the help, the problem is solved, I just had to do full sbf install for 3 times. Now my mobile is on for about 26 hours using the new battery. (On 4.2.2)
Maybe I had problems both with the old battery and the battery files on the ROMs.

I have been experiencing similar battery problems running Whiterabbit 2.1.1 on my Green lens Defy Mb525. Which 4.2.2 ROM are you using Jinx? If I flash a new ROM and recalibrate the battery is that likely to fix it? I'm guessing sbf install is the same as a full factory reset. (forgive me, I'm a beginner when it comes to all this!) How come you needed to reinstall 3 times?
I don't know, what solved my problem, but the fact is that I reinstalled the sbf three times than updated to Quarx's latest 4.2.2 nightly than I got it right.
My phone just run out of power after 3 days 4 hours. Good luck!

Thanks for taking the time to reply Jinx.
3 days is excellent! I flashed sbf twice, had some trouble running Jellybean ROMs without serious lag, so am currently reverting back to 7.2, running 'Cyanmobile experience'. It runs smoothly, but still encountering the battery drops, so its somewhat of a mystery!
I'll keep experimenting.
I have a spare battery, and an external wall charger. Currently swapping between the two to last through the day with enough juice!

Somehow, even for me, after 3 sbf flashes, CM10 is really smooth and there are no problems so far. Oddly, after the second sbf flash, CM10 was quite laggy.
I bought my brand New defy in October 2012. I've had huge battery drops ever since I jumped onto the CM10 bandwagon from this February. How's that possible?

I dont know whats up with my Nexus 4 battery but its acting weird.
Sometimes at around 40% (or 30%, or 20%) my phone just switches off, then when I put it to charge and switch it back on, the phone is at 1%.
I tried calibrating the battery properly several several times with no luck
This happened when I was in 4.2.2 first. After that when I flashed 4.3 factory image the problem was solved.
Now when I flashed the Kit Kat image, I have this issue again. I'm really annoyed with this as I cant take my phone outside without knowing how much battery I REALLY have left.
I need help here please.
SOLVED: I guess the problem was because of a faulty battery. My old battery was swelling, so I replaced it and these problems were all solved

I just came here to post the same thread! Yesterday my phone just went dark without any sign or switching off animation at about 25% battery. I plugged it in and now when it got to 76% it just went straight to 100% full battery. Obviously while discharging it it will switch off again at 20-25%. What can we do? Completely stock, unrooted, 4.4 Kit kat sideloaded. Edit: Did the factory reset after 4.4 kit kat
you can try factory reset (wipe all data), or a clean flash 4.4.

Repairing is really relative. It can take from 2 up to 3 weeks usually. I was told it would take three and got it back after two. My issue was that I couldn't hear the person speak in calls though.
Good luck

It seems like you have a faulty battery. IMO, it has nothing to do with the software.

Yep, but never been on 4.2.2, I took mine when 4.3 was out there. And moreover mine is bought from the UK play store just like yours I guess. Don't know whether flashing the factory 4.4 image will solve the issue though. :/ Factory reset didn't.

Does your phone just randomly switch off, without the Powering off dialog box?
Mine does that randomly, the screen just switches off. When I switch on there's enough battery remaining.

Nope. Mine doesn't do that..yet. But when it gets to 30% it switches off without the powering off dialog box, yes. Black screen. When I plugged it in, it starts from 1%

Hi All,
Everything was ok till the day before yesterday. But suddenly from yesterday I am facing a huge battery drain problem i.e. 1% per minute on my S4. I am running the latest version of Arrow Rom.
I did format everything and reinstall Arrow Rom but no luck. Then I restored my previous Stock CWM backup and again problem is same.
One more thing my phone's battery is taking too much time to full charge. It takes 5 to 6 minutes to charge 1%. Sometimes it takes more than that.Although my phone is only one year old. When Iam using phone for browsing or chatting with charger plugged in its not charging properly its decreasing.
Can anybody tell me what is the problem?

Your battery is more likely to be uncalibrated. Download Battery Calibration from Google Play and follow the steps on how to calibrate it. It requires ROOT. Any other things that can cause this are wakelocks, be careful what kernel you use. You can monitor wakelocks using Wakelock Detector from Google Play.
Or your battery might be a faulty one, check if its swollen

I don´t believe in calibration. It´s a balast...
How old is the battery?? Over one year? Buy new one.
Or try to use Wakelock detector and after results use Greenify

Use power saving mode install stock rom
Auto brightness
Format sd card
Remove unnessesary apps
Stop all unusual apps like google plus hangout and play books etc etc those you don't use.
Disable chrome use dolfin or other's.
If you are using custom kernel or mods like audio mod or performance mods don't use them.
Auto sync off when not needed
If these steps don't work then change the battery
For charging use 2amp charger with a 16amp socket
Use stock usb
Clean your battery's copper area with petrol and also clean your
Usb cable and ports sockets
Hope this will help
And I know my English is not good.
