[Q] LG G2 Questions: Battery and root - G2 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Can someone please help me clarify these:
1. I read somewhere that the battery needs to be charge between 40% to 80% to prolong the life of the battery and to avoid charging until 100% or else the battery will degrade. I really want to be careful with my battery since it is my first non removable and if ever i changed it with a new one, I may void my warranty by opening the back cover. I have 2 year warranty.
2. In regard to rooting, I want to know if I decided to unroot in the future (btw, I am on stock unrooted), will LG know or will the root status stay on the phone? After reading from the lg g2 root thread, it seems that some people are having trouble getting rid of the root status despite successfully unrooting it. Can someone who has success in rooting and unrooting without root status post the thread they followed.
Thank you. You can ask me if some parts are unclear.

1. yes, that is true, but these batteries are designed to last 4-5 years and unless you plan on keeping your g2 for that long, the degradation of the battery shouldn't be anything to worry about and you shouldn't really go out of your way to minimize it
2. Unfortunately, when you root your device it trips rootchecker (unique to lg devices) and it is (so far) irreversible, but if you have problems, an (extreme) solution may be to break the bottom left of your screen, that way they can't see ROOTED in download mode(not recommended :laugh

1. So I can just charged it until 100%? And my battery seems to not last longer than my first 3 charges, that is why I am starting to worry. In case I did something wrong or my battery has defect. Also, is there a need to fully drain the battery at least once a month? There's so much debate regarding that and varied opinions. In your experience, what do you think?
2. Does this also apply in an international G2 version or only for Verizon? I have D802.
Also, what is your normal, highest, and lowest temperature in C or F?

1.it depends if you are having horrendous battery life(could be a or just want to improve it slightly you could try clearing batterystats.bin when below 10% and then switching the phone off and recharging it up to 100% while off
2.It should apply to all phones.(i have a d802 as well)
3.My battery is usually about 25-30C, but i have been to 35C without it exploding in my face :silly:

your a lucky man, although not sure how you did that

LOL
I also came here looking for an answer to the root checker problem and just like every other thread on this subject, some say it is irreversible and some say it can be reversed.
I guess it's just a crap shoot.

You decide if you want to believe those who have fixed their phone's status or those who haven't.
OP: forget everything you ever heard about treating your battery right. Worst case? You spend 20 bucks in two years from now on getting it replaced (it's easily replaceable, search for it on xda).

Yeah, thats why I said it's just a crap shoot.
Are you implying that he is a liar?

How do you check the status? I am using a Singapore bought D802 and have not seen any root status in the settings

You need to go into download mode by switching your phone off then holding volume up while plugging in the USB from your computer, it should then say rooted in the bottom left

What I'm implying is that one person got it done and the other one failed to do so. It's possible but you have to get it done.

For my experience with iphone, i charged when only 10-15% left for regular cycle, less than 10% for full cycle once in a month. It works for me for 3-4yrs but do not use while charging w/c is very hard but effective.

Have you tested unrooting it? If yes, did your status revert back to stock?

Sending DZ for repair - how will it come back? (software update etc?)

Hi All
I've had my Dezire Z since launch and it's still on the original software (1.34.405.5) and is perm rooted using visionary (pretty much since visionary first came out and so simple to use). The only thing I really wanted root for really was to be able to use SetCPU to underclock the phone when the screen was off to give better battery life as initially it was terrible!
However, last week the loud speaker died on me, anything that uses it (sat nav, music, ringtones etc) is really really badly distorted and totally unuseable.
I've spoken to HTC who suggested a factory reset (which I'm 99.9% certain won't help), and if that doesn't fix it, then I'll have to get it picked up for repair.
I'm fairly happy about backing up everything etc and unrooting using visionary, so my phone will be fine for sending off.
However I imagine they'll update to the newest version of the software, which If I understand correctly is not rootable? Is that right? I've read so many rooting threads and, to be honest, have been left somewhat baffled by it all!
If it comes back with the latest software, is there any hope for me to be able to root or flash to a difference (still Sense based) firmware?
Any help/advice very much appreciated!

No, it is not true. I update my Desire Z to latest software, then downgrade easly to low version of 1.3x to get SuperCID, so it will not be a problem, becouse you can downgrade any time and put rooted firmware.
The problem will be if you get firmware, that was not yet published, but even for this it will be possible to do something.
Oh that's good, though I have to say all the guides I've read about downgrading etc have left me rather confused.
I don't really have a huge need for root, except as I mentioned for running setCPU for battery life....

I have also have root on my phone for setCPU, but I dont observe any changes with cpu management and without, so I decide, that I dont need it such, and upgrade to newest software without root.

How do you find the battery lasts on the newest software? on the original software it was really terrible until I started using setCPU...even now it's not brilliant...
It definately increased the battery life for me,I'm on a stock pre-rooted GB rom.

when i was 1.34 i never had any battery issues. if i left it alone it will last a week or more. but sadly i cant live without music and reading my txt/email, ive managed to get 6 days battery life. but this only happened after 2weeks since i bought the device.
i had to double charge the phone, charge the phone till green when its on then unplug the charger then charge the phone till green when phone is off. only had to do that method once.
better off flashing to stock so its rooted and s-on. It really begrudgingly did this because they will plug it in when it goes back for repair.
I just got a stock rom off the net and they didn't update or downgrade it, they literally just wiped the user data which I have been told is protocol.

Wrong battery percentage

Hello everybody!
I have a Note 3 N900, 5.0, L19, dr ketan rom. This problem existed even on stock, and on stock KitKat.
I have a problem with the battery percentage. The battery percentage goes down at a rate of, for example when browsing the web on Chrome, 2%-4% a minute!
Overall, the battery life is not good during to this problem, as you guys can imagine. Tried to do a battery cycle (emptying the battery and charging to full) with no success...
Bought 2 new (!) batteries, but still, with no luck.
What the he** can be the problem if not from the ROM itself?
Thank you!

EXACT same with my s4 i9500. no matter which rom, give it official lollipop, custom roms, cm12, cm11, official 4.4, my battery sucks in all of them. my battery decreases about 2%/minute with ANDROID system being the most battery hug in battery details, in ever rom i use since couple of months back.

i guess this is bcz of the phone itself not the battery. couple of yrs ago i had a nokia 5800, and after 6 months of use, it started to lose charge. even without using it it would stay for slightly more than 1 hour. i got it to repair center, and they tested out with new batteries, etc, and still they couldnt solve it so they exchanged it with N8. i sugges you to take it to the repair shop before the warranty ends if it hasnt ended yet. or should get a replacement unit. my s4 has 2 years of warranty btw. i also need to visit the repair shop some time.

hhhhhhh well, the warranty has already expired, but even if I had one, I couldn't get it to a repair center to fulfill my warranty, because, well, I'm rooted
Well, when the phone isn't in use, it won't lose almost much at all... It was always when the screen is on, for some reason.... The weird thing is, that I can't see anything out of the ordinary in BBS/Wakelock Detector/Battery section on settings....
Weird......

Here in Qatar they're too stupid for everything so all I need to do is install a UAE official kitkat without rooting and then giving them. Also this year on may, a hardware-wise problem happened to my Xperia tab z, and it wasn't booting up at all. I knew it was nothing to do with software, it was a hardware failure so they replaced it and it was rooted. However since jt wasnt booting up they had no way to check root. Idk if I've been cursed at or something, every device of mine needs to go to repair at least once in its lifetime. I have recently bought an HP laptop and now the screen doesn't turn off when I close the lid, it doesn't even detect the lid at all. This also hardware wise...

Replacing is not an option for me as I have no extra money to spend right now, while I can't send it to Samsung center and claim for warranty as my warranty has expired already...
No other solutions?
try a 10.000 mAh ZeroLemon battery.
i have it and it's amazing, i get around 20 hours of screen on time :good:

Can you give us more specific info about what's using your battery?
Install BetterBatteryStats and send some screenshots, this is an extreme problem I can tell. There must be something keeping your phone in full power all the time.
How hot is your device? Believe it or not, the battery gets affected extremely by heat since it Lithium-ion.
What apps do you have installed? Apps like Facebook and similar will cause consumption.
There's a lot of things that affect the battery.

Take a look at these.
I, personally, can't see anything special. Do you?
According do those screenshots you have excellent battery life! I don't even get half of that. The screen of your note 3 takes up lots of power. What I can suggest is to change you max Cpu frequency to 1490mhz and go for the intellidemand governor. The snapdragon 800 is powerful enough to run smoothly with that frequency. Try it and report back if it did any changes.

But as I wrote, it's a N900, so I have the Exynos, does the frequency you suggested will change?

Oh right! I'm sorry, I missed that part. But just try to underclock your CPU a little bit and you should see a increase in battery life. Just try whatever frequency you want, the only thing that might happen is a slow device (you basically can't break the phone with underclocking, in fact, it's better for the CPU). Remember to change your governor to Intellidemand or Intellimand (can't remember the exact name).

I don't think that there are working custom kernel for the 5.0 N900... shame there's almost no more development for our phone..

i have this same **** problem
Ok, even with two new batteries and a few battery cycles with them, the percentage won't stabilize... Today the battery ran down to zero, and the phone continued to run (on 0%) for about 20 min..............
After replacing the battery, I was on 100%, dialed *#0228# and did the "RUN TEST" and the percentage went down to 23%. Dialed again and it went up to 82% and charged it. I can't seem to find a godda** solution for this problem!
What can I do to solve this?!!

Rooted battery status

I am pretty sure I already know the answer, but I am going to ask anyway.
Has anyone found a way to get the battery to show 100% on the rooted Snapdragon version yet?
The battery percent doesn't bother my much, but when I check the battery stats it always shows my phone as being on battery, never plugged in and the screen on time never resets so I have no actual idea of my battery stats.
I don't want to give up my root, but having accurate battery stats is important to me.
Thanks.

I'll save you the trouble..
Nope.
It won't happen either without a bootloader unlock, so don't hold your breath.
I get as much or more SOT than people with stock ROMs and full charge though, so I don't personally really care lol. 80 is the new 100
Also jfyi this is like the #1 most asked root question these days so I bet even with a short time on the search engine and you can find out if there are updates on this. Frankly it would be front page news if it happened so I wouldn't worry about missing it lol

I was definitely getting only 80 PCT now that I've gone back to stock I can tell
I wonder if this battery deal has something to do with leftover note7 code when they released the update to only allow it to charge to 80 PCT. Seems too much a coincidence
I get 81% at full charge ?

The s8 kernels arent the same linux kernel version base as the note 7, which means they had to start over applying their patches from a fresh new kernel. Nothing there to leave behind

LG V20 Battery issues! Roll back? Root

So here's my little situation, I wanted to just keep this phone stock and not root it for once since I do it for every phone I get. I've only had this thing for a week and I love it... Mostly.
Problem is I have ABYSMAL battery life, loosing 10%+ on "Phone Idle" "Android OS" and "Android System" which typically sucks up around 30% of my battery usage and my SOT can be as low as 60 minutes if I let my phone sit while I work for example. This seems to not be an isolated issue however I have yet to find anybody experiencing such a dramatic loss of battery.
So my questions are is there ANY way to fix this? Been looking all over and it seems to be a software issue thus creating more questions. Looked around and I can't seem to find a way to help this problem.
As far as I am aware there is ABSOLUTELY no way to downgrade my T-Mobile H91810s nor is it possible to root it.
Is this true or am I missing something? I just bought this thing brand new after my ZTE Axon 7 got stolen. ):
So my three main questions: Has anyone find a way to lower battery consumption from those three programs? Is there ANY way to rollback to a previous firmware? Or is it possible to root the H91810s firmware?
I would really appreciate any feedback or answerers from the XDA community. I love this forum and 95% of the time there's anyways a solution to my problems from the amazing people but I'm afraid this might be the other 5%. Anyway thank you again for any feedback!
Losing that much battery that quickly is in no way normal. I get between 3 to 4 hours sot and somewhere in the neighborhood of 15 hours of total life. That's normal usage. Most people here seem to get somewhere in that range or more, I don't try too hard to conserve battery. If you have already factory reset to no avail I would first pick up an extra battery. Shouldn't be any more than $20. This will confirm whether this is a battery issue or related to hardware/software on the phone. If that doesn't work you can grab the patched lgup (somewhere in the guides section) and the 10r h918 kdz. Since you are on arb 1, you can roll back to anything with the same arb version. 10r is arb 1 as well, so it should flash no problems. Put the phone in download mode, and click partition dl on the patched lgup gui. Select the 10r kdz and it will flash every single partition to the phone. This will be a brand new phone with factory fresh firmware/software. Do not attempt to flash anything lower than 10r as I have no idea when arb was implemented for the h918 (I believe it was after 10k). If the problem STILL persists after a kdz restore, then I would guess the unit is defective in someway. @runningnak3d any suggestions or corrections to what I have stated? You know a heck of a lot more when it comes to all things LG and v20
I have never had that kind of battery problem on the H910 or H918 no matter the firmware version. I agree with the suggestion of getting a new battery.
FYI - ARB 1 was implemented in 10p, so you can roll all the way back to 10p or anything in between.

Check the battery optimization and see which apps are unoptimized. If you are using the stock apps for messaging/calling then chances are you have bad network reception. I use airplane mode at home because I'm mostly in the dark area where reception is nill, otherwise my phone's battery in standby lasts less than 6hrs or loses 15-20% overnight. I don't know why the modem eats so much battery in the region of poor reception though. (I have Zuk Z2 as well but I never had to switch it to airplane mode at home and it kept on searching for network all the time without alarming battery usage).
Chances are that your replacement battery is faulty or counterfeit too. I have an LG Battery which was manufactured in January 8th 2018 and its working fine, gives me a full day use from morning till night and I remove the phone from charger before leaving for work. Also, make sure you're using a compatible charger. I have used both QC2.0 and QC3.0 chargers with my phone and its charging speed is the same. (ZUK Z2 comes with QC2.0 charger while I have Leeco's QC3.0 charger too, LG's is QC2.0). Try using a non-QC charger as well which will charger ur battery slow but maybe repairs the memory-effect-like problems with your battery.

Several things you can try. Depends how long and hard you are willing to keep at it.
For starters when you boot into recovery, do you see an option to wipe cache ? if so wipe, reboot back and see whether it fixes anything
I've had this happen to a couple tablets. You may need to reset the battery logic.
Turn off the phone.
Pull the battery.
Press and hold the power button for one full minute.
Let the phone sit for 10 minutes without the battery in it.
Put the battery back in and boot up.
I hope this works for you.

Am curious as to what 'reset battery logic' means ?
Is this when you use a bigger battery and you want it to recalibrate or something

A feature called Battery Stats, which keeps track of battery capacity, when it is full or empty. The problem is that it sometimes becomes corrupted and starts displaying data that isn’t real. This is an attempt to get the OS to correct this information.

here we are ten days later and the OP has yet to show. I suppose this problem must not be a problem anymore ?
rctd and Triton are really the batteries EATERS!!!.I uploaded h918 10s kernel with it removed

The same is happening with my LG V20 H918. When I charge it using a fast charger (I have a Motorola G5 Plus), it shows me fast-charging and simply shows 100% within 10-15 minutes. That means it is wrong information.
So I tested by using my V20 until it got discharged and turned off automatically, and then charged it completely for several hours. What happened next, its battery worked for full 2 days.

any info on what Triton is?? I see that in the processes too often as well...
My guess would be something related to rctd...ccmd doesn't seem to hurt nothing and from what I read...(a little)..ccmd is a security fuse or exploit..that kicks in the lock-out timer for password...or criminals as us..:silly:..but I found the Triton file inside the in it.rc inside the kernel and turned it off.. And changed the way it wrote|write..to the system per se..

So here's my little situation, I wanted to just keep this phone stock and not root it for once since I do it for every phone I get. I've only had this thing for a week and I love it... Mostly.
Problem is I have ABYSMAL battery life, loosing 10%+ on "Phone Idle" "Android OS" and "Android System" which typically sucks up around 30% of my battery usage and my SOT can be as low as 60 minutes if I let my phone sit while I work for example. This seems to not be an isolated issue however I have yet to find anybody experiencing such a dramatic loss of battery.
So my questions are is there ANY way to fix this? Been looking all over and it seems to be a software issue thus creating more questions. Looked around and I can't seem to find a way to help this problem.
As far as I am aware there is ABSOLUTELY no way to downgrade my T-Mobile H91810s nor is it possible to root it.
Is this true or am I missing something? I just bought this thing brand new after my ZTE Axon 7 got stolen. ):
So my three main questions: Has anyone find a way to lower battery consumption from those three programs? Is there ANY way to rollback to a previous firmware? Or is it possible to root the H91810s firmware?
I would really appreciate any feedback or answerers from the XDA community. I love this forum and 95% of the time there's anyways a solution to my problems from the amazing people but I'm afraid this might be the other 5%. Anyway thank you again for any feedback!

Could be a bad battery. I bought a battery and for some reason it won't let the processor go offline. With 2 of the batteries the phone sleeps just fine, but with the third battery I get horrible battery life and it shows Android system and phone idol eating up battery life and also 3c toolbox shows that the processor is not going offline. Kind of strange, but could just be a bad battery. You can get a new one on eBay for $9 and free shipping! The last one I got is great!

I bought a used Sprint v20 in "VG" condition. The phone looks really clean. But the phone is getting very hot with light browser use in a short time, and drains very quickly. I didn't install any facebook or anything but it may come with Sprint. Anyhow the battery issue is pretty bad so far. However I decided to turn off the location and that seems like it may be part of the problem. However not terribly happy that the GPS eats the battery and causes heat issues, but what can I do. Also noticed someone else with problems mentioned the verizon model. I wonder if the Sprint and Verizon versions have issues. :/ Also my battery was manufactured in 2017/02 and is official. I could replace it but with the heat and GPS issues, it seems like the problem is likely hardware / software related and not the battery itself.

You should be able to root as I was on 10s and was able to root using lafsploit : https://forum.xda-developers.com/v20/how-to/root-lafsploit-h918-version-t3773443
Just make sure to rollback to 10p using LGUP, and getting the right .dll file.
P.S : When you use LGUP choose the 'Upgrade' option and not 'downgrade'

How can i prevent my phone from shutting down before the battery % reaches 0?

My note 4 shuts down before the battery percentage reaches 0. How can i fix this? Im using a debloated stock rom (https://forum.xda-developers.com/no...rom-n910tuvu1anj7-4-4-4-deodexed-ciq-t2915737). Ive tried this: https://forum.xda-developers.com/note-4/general/battery-shutdowns-15-20-fix-root-t3513268, but it didnt work for me.
Edit: im using a new original battery.
Get a new original battery

I'd suggest NOT getting an original battery, since there's so many counterfeits out there, unless you're directly buying from Samsung. Get a reliable 3rd party battery on Amazon with at least 18month+ warranty. It's very likely the 'new' battery you have is a counterfeit, or refurbished. I gaurantee it will be fixed with a GOOD battery. Get a refund if it still behaves that way. Cheers :highfive:
I have bought 5 battery's on ebay before I have found the right one
