Hello xda community , i got an international version of the galaxy s5 G900F non rooted with stock rom/kernel . Well the problem is whenever i fully charge my phone to 100% , the first 5-6% drains really fast in like 1 minute wich means its like i usualy start my full charge from 94% and not 100% . I've tried factory restoring or also flashing the stock rom all over again and i've also tried calibrating the battery but still without any positive results . Note: my phone is still new that i just bought 3 weeks ago and not a very old one ( means the battery is not dying )

First of all, my phone is a year old. Second of all, its battery life has been starting to get worse in the beginning of this year.
However, it has never been this fast draining or taking this long to charge (so far charging about 2 hours and 62%).
I flashed this Google Edition rom + the kernel and right after that started the noticeable battery drain.
Before I was on stock Touchwiz 4.4.3.
Is this normal? Or should I get a new battery? If, so could you recommend a new battery for someone who hasn't needed an extended one before?
Thanks

Hi mate ,
Most of times the problem may be the charger or power line ( fluctuations ) , samsung stock or stock based kernels check on those fluctuations and decrease the charging current until is stable. Some kernels ( custom) allow you to disable this, see if you have that option if not try with another charger/cable and see if it gets better.
A new battery for sure will not hurt.......
Recently bought this S4,model I9515,brand new and sim free.When I first turned it on it was on 4.4.2 official kitkat which is also the latest.I’ve rooted it and deleted a lot of samsung crap.Been using it for a few days now,and I noticed that the battery is draining to fast.I attached some pictures so that anybody can tell me if this battery life is ok and Im just being wrong or not.
running up to fast or ?
well with 4 h in screen this seems pretty normal. i get a maximum of 3...
so since i updated my galaxy to to polnish version of 5.0.1 i feel like something is drinking up my battery, i dont have an enormous amount of applications. to describe how tragic is the situation is like if i touch it for some minutes writing some text in facebook mesenger i get a loss of 10% in 20 minutes, even if i dont touch at all my device after 8 hours for example it comes with a loss of 25% in battery. could it be a problem that i charge the phone with an 1000mah charger the problem (i dont have the original cable and charger)? i have already tried to reflash the rom with cleaning everything. i will try to post some real data screenshots from the battery app next days here...

Just don't care about how many mah the apps will tell you, the battery is charging anyway. I have a 3100 battery and battery monitor widget tell me 2100, but the phone stays longer than the 2600 battery, so I think that the battery is charging copletelly not only 2100 as the app tells me. Anyway you can change it in the setting of the widget if you want to.
hope it can help
after doing a clean install of the original lollipop rom i m getting back a lot of power. almost 5h on screen usage. Though i almost installed nothing on the handy and i disabled the most of the preinstalled applications. I m really discouraged about this, as it means that the problem is the android system itself... when i compare it with my company handy (iphone 5c) with the same applications and usage its like the half standby and 5c is far away from a up todate iphone ...
I hope we will get 5.1 as in a comparison on my nexus 7 from 5.0.1 to 5.1 it was like the double standby in hours.
I am having a problem battery
My brother, my s4, the battery is discharging very fast ,screen time is 3h , tell me a rom, the battery runs out slowly
can be any existing rom the world just want the battery to last
example
>reduce processor speed
>reduce screen quality
I use cyanogemod 13, with little battery life
I have Note 4 SM-910C Unrooted international on stock ROM 5.0.1.
my problem started with battery charging to around 80% then stops or take like 5 hours to reach 100% then when I use the phone battery suddenly drops from 20-30% to zero.
if I remove the battery then reinstall it reads 16-18% but may drop back to zero.
when turned off while charged it charges to 100% normally
It is irrespective of charger/cable i use (2mA).
tried hard reset and battery calibrate (non-root) but no good.
Any help with this problem

Sounds like your battery has gone rogue so you might wanna buy a new battery. A great example why not to buy Note 5 lol.
Maybe it's a bug in your rom build so why don't you try and upgrade from 5.0.1 to 5.1.1.
I have not used stock roms since the s2 days and after using custom roms I have never looked back.

i have the same problem with my N910F.. at 20% my phone dies.. like today it was 20% dropped to 4% in an instance and then died..
this is happening since upgrading to 5.1.1 (dirty)..
is it possible to fix this with a factory reset ?
Try Battery calibration and battery repair from the store... If it's not doing something, then replace the battery
make sure your battery is fully charged. From dialing interface typing in *#0228# to check battery info and clicked "quick start" at the bottom of the screen, then your battery will drop down quickly, try these steps several times.

Yeah, Samsung has a solution. Buy a new phone as they will never update the 1 year old one even though they ****ed it up...
As much as Iove Note family I am more and more pissed with Samsung and eventually will stop buying their ****.... Already done with their watches by the way...
Definitely a degraded battery problem.
I got a new battery and problem now solved.
I have the same problem and already bought a new battery but the issue continues.
(Sorry for my English)
Hey there. My friend sold his soul to devil and bought himself Iphone 6s.
He was planning to sell his note 3 but I told him to give it to me for a few weeks to see if it works well.
I completely wiped everything and flashed stock rom from odin. I wanted to try out some custom roms but there seem not much to try with n9000q version.
Anyway the thing overheats in a few minutes and battery acts stupid. While it is at 80% device reset itself and boots with 45% battery left (so it says) then climbs back to 57-58%. Then resets again and come back with 1%
It overheats around its camera. I am wondering if replacing battery would solve these problems or not.
Not more than likely .
I have a Samsung Galaxy S4 I9505 and the problem is the amount of percent of batery. I have 2 baterys (1 is new) and ive the same problem, when the batery come down to 30% the phone dead instantly. I followed some tutorials about fix the percent of batery but i didnt have lucky.
I want know if the problem is the phone, or maybe is the OS. I downloaded the official rom 5.1 from sammmobile, but i dont flash it yet.

Replace the battery. It's a normal problem.
Test battery at the checkout. Reboot the phone as a minimum 3 times and make sure that the battery does not lose more than ~~15-20%. Constantly met extremely poor quality batteries
