[Q] battery recharging by itself - Galaxy S 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

When i use my Galaxy S4 i9505 and the screen is on it is discharging normaly, but when the screen is off and the device is idle it goes up by 2-3% sometimes even more. After that when i use it again it is still discharging normaly (it does not drop the 3% right away). It does that on stock rom and any other custom roms and kernels i had. I had attached a screenshot with this behavior.
Does anybody know why this is happening?

1. I think is the mod u are using for change the battery icon and the custom ROM.
2. COUNCIL: Flash Stock ROM (without mods) and replace the battery if happens again.

I have the same problem and I'm on stock ROM...

[Q] Stock ROM show battery percentage instead of just battery?

I'm wondering if the stock rom can show the battery percentage on top of the phone rather then just the picture of the battery which doesn't tell me as accurately? If so, how do I enable it?
you cannot do that in stock, unrooted phone.
If you're willing to modify the stock ROM, you can use this, for example, to change the battery icon (ROOT needed)

[Q] Battery drain with turned off phone [2 different batteries]

Hi guys,
I have an S5360 with the original Samsung ROM and recently the battery drain fast, even with the phone turned off. I've bought a new battery, thinking is that the problem, but with this new battery the smartphone still drain turned off.
There is something I can do to check what is the problem? Is the problem in the hardware?
Thanks!
Clear battery status via CWM recovery.If the problem still exists,flash your region's stock ROM via ODIN.

[Q] Annoying issue : Stuck on grey battery when phone off on non GE/TW rom

Hello all,
I believe that i am not alone who encounter this issue on AOSP rom :
i can not charge my i9505 while it is off.I am stuck on grey battery and i have to pull out the battery to be able to turn on again.
This is not dust or something , it is because of AOSP rom.TW and GE work perfectly.I tried KT ,alucard kernel and other without any result.
If someone know how fix this issue , i need you!!
And please do not tell me to keep the phone awake every day and night!
Thanks in advance!
It's not really an issue. They just haven't coded the animation yet. When you have to code a rom from scratch, charging when it's off is at the bottom of the list. It should still charge though.
i have the same problem.. but only when i use a custom boot.img

[Q] Weird Battery Problem! U8800 Pro

Hi,
The problem is that the phone always stays at 0% charging. The phone immediately shutdown if disconnected from the charger. And, it doesn't boot up without charger. The weirdness is that the TWRP Recovery works just fine even without the charger. I got the battery replaced with a brand new one. So, its clearly not a problem with the battery itself. I am on KitKat 4.4.4 Rom. Should i try to install official rom? Any guess what it could be?
Thanks!
It seems you are on a custom ROM. Have you tried other custom ROM? If other custom ROM loads that means your ROM is too big for your phone, and you need to set your phone to increase the ROM space for ROM

Android System Battery Draining

Hi all
I'm kinda frustrated and this is my story.
I have Edge + for less than an month (this is my firs Samsung device). I feel pretty familiar with the rooting and other installation, so after I got this device I installed PhilZ Recovery and the Arter kernel.
The device was kinda laggy and after I've tried to restart the device it stock on FRP lock and I flashed the original firmware and decided to let it chance. After that no matter what I did including reflashing
the original firmware, Android System keeps draining the battery, in one night it lose 30% with doing nothing (I guess it is some deep sleep bug). It's like CPU works half of the time while the device is turned on
(with or without Screen is ON).
My question is why actually this happen? Is it common issue with the original firmware? What can I do?
All advises will be welcomed.
Thanks!

I would suggest finding the stock firmware and kernel and re flashing both clean. I have the Edge+ international version and I also rooted and flashed the Arter kernel... But i do not have deep sleep issues. I will loose probably 2-3% battery over night with sync and Wi-Fi off.

That exactly what I did I flashed (even a few times) the original kernel and ROM via Odin but the issue is still there.
2-3% per night it's nothing comparing to my 30% So I guess you don't have any deep sleep issue

Hey. Yeah G3 is the best in deep sleep case. no drainage for a day for 6 days just %1,, but too much drainage while using tho
I'm not sure if my problem is the same as yours. But my phone was facing the same battery issue on stock firmware. I turn off everything, even with flight mode on, the battery drain was like 30-40% overnight.
After I installed gsam battery monitor, I found out that the android system was the main culprit. The android system drain amount was like 7-10 times to kernel (android os), and the apps also showed that my phone was kept awake all the time. No matter what firmware I used, the problem still persists. Fortunately, the problem was then solved when I installed arter97 kernel, or any kernels other than the stock one.

Yea, this is the exact my problem. Eventually I flashed Arter97 kernel and seems like the issue actually disappeared.
Thanks!
