My battery life keeps dying even when I'm charging. I already change the chargers but still don't work. Is my battery is dead or my device is not working properly?

Just rule it out. Since a charger doesnt help. Next is to check the battery. Borrow a battery or buy a new one. If it still doesnt work it must be your phone.
Then it must be my phone thanks.

Hey guys ...
As you know this beloved phone has Li-polymer battery and I remember that once I had read that this kind of batteries have this possibility that for example even if they are not fully discharged, we can connect them to charger and it does not damage them and so on.
Is this true? Do you know about this?

It is even better for these batteries to not fully discharge.

Read this article, basically says everything you need to know
Just charge and use your phone normally, there are a lot of myths about batteries. One is the fact that if you discharge the battery to zero you can damage it. That's true at an electrical level, but your phone will report "zero" and turn off at a safe level, well before any potentially-damaging level.

Some app or service is draining your battery. Get BetterBatteryStats to narrow it down.

Like someone said before it's a rogue app and the only way your going to get the battery drain issue to go away is to figure out which app is doing it and then get rid of it.

I think the best solution for you is to factory reset or re-install android on your device once.
It will be easier than finding out where is the problem. as screen snap shows most of the battery is drained by "android OS".
It was just my opinion you can take it if you want.
My battery usage. Even though my screen on time was only about 2 hrs most of the battery was drained by the screen. So there music be something very wrong in your case.
I don't know about android virus but that might be an option.

Gonna follow along and disable my daydream as well since I'm having the same problem you are with it actually draining while on the charger (Stock ROM, Franco Kernel, OEM wall wart with gold tipped USB cable). Tis quite annoying to have to either keep the screen off or power down completely in order for this bad boy to charge...
I have a galaxy note 3 N9005 and the battery life is not what it should be. I've owned this phone for about 5 days. I always have power saving mode on with all the smart and air features disabled. I charged my device to 100%. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks
Wow, that's some horrible battery life. I'm not seeing anything like that on my device though.
Did you condition the battery probably?
And of over 3 hour screen on time.
My advice: try to recondition your battery
As in, let it die, recharge to full from wall outlet. Do that about 3 to 5 times. Don't force it to die just use it normally so the battery will discharge power properly this will causes it to hold more charge.
If you do that and the battery still doesn't hold charge then your battery is good as dead.

Wow you get amazing battery life! Thanks for your help
Is your screen brightness set to 100%? And was what you're doing over excessively white? Because that might account for some of it.
Did you unplug it last at 100% battery, or somewhere halfway? Because from the look of that table, you unplugged it around 50%...

You have defective battery plain and simple. All this talk of calibration is for birds. This lithium batteries don't need that.

I would just to head off a Pandora box of ish. I pretty sure it's battery but why not just get new device get a second unboxing feeling plus the sooner you do it less attached you are to current device. Then pimp out new device with DynamicNotification. My 3 cents

I have been having some issues as well
its getting better since last Thursday since i got it but its still not 1 day.

Do we have to "train" the battery to achieve max capacity?
is it battery defect or phone?
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

Download CPU-Z application from the Play Store and swipe left to the battery tab. You may also download Qualcomm Trepn to monitor your battery charging rates and battery life as well. Hope it helped!

Try Ampere, maybe its an app problem. Tested Ampere and works pretty well. Here is the link.
