Hi.
My S4 has this issue of automatically shutting down when the battery is less than 50%, but sometimes it keeps working even on 2, 3 battery life???
is there any way to fix this battery or if i must buy a new battery for it which one to buy coz there are a lot of replicas and fake battery here in Pakistan...
Try a new battery.

can you tell me which one to buy???
Doesn't really matter as long as it gives power and fits in your device.
HI,
Dont want to start new thread if problem is the same.
Is this the same battery behaving?
Why battery spikes, is it dead?
Battery can last whole day with wifi on, few hours of net, and few calls.
i have this issue too but sometimes it gives me more than 1 day timing

Initially this sounds like an unacceptable reply, but mo3ulla speaks the truth, I had the same problem and the battery needed replacing, now mine goes all the way down to the bottom before it dies.
There are several other exact same threads...why didn't you do the search?
Answer...buy a new one.
i search'd for...but the answer i am looking for is not "buy new one..." you might have $$ to spend but i dont

try this:
after it becomes dead... try to plug it in to make it "turn on" again.... then remove the plug when the device is already on.... now use the device until your battery drains out.... charge it and then the next time you use it.... it will shut down on a different percent... maybe 20%... maybe 10%....
i used to do this before i got my new battery.... my battery randomly shuts my universal when im in 23%, 20% and 11%... you may still have to buy a new battery soon...
I solve with new battery,20 euro from Germany,1800mah.Now it's all ok,my uni turned off at 35%
Same happend to my device after one year of usage. Simply buy a new Battery ... this solves your problem.
lol you have to meny to get an expensive machine like the Universal, but you don't have the money for a new battery?
I agree that this is most likely a serious design flaw in the Universal, but spending $15 to $20 is not the end of the world.
Time for a new battery, most definitely. Mine shuts down at about 55%-60% through continuous use, otherwise it will happily idle down to about 30 without any problem. I power cycled it a few times, but that's only a temporary solution. Given as how most original batteries are 18+ months old and the fact that they're recharged nearly everyday means they're going to show signs of degradation by this time. I'm considering getting the 3.2Ah one myself, seems like a good compromise between size and longevity.

I had batteries die after a month.
The universal should not crash when the battery is dead though. It should simply warn that the battery is empty.

Not when your battery is damaged. Normaly a batty looses some Volts over a constant time of using. After reload the Battery will have the full voltage again. A defect battery will drop down the Volts from one secound to another under a working minimum, so the device has no power to keep running.

What's the use of reporting the battery level if it's not accurate? All other devices I have just switch of faster when the battery degrades. The device still knows when the batterry is empty. The Universal is the only device I've ever encountered that claims the battery is 45% full when in fact it's empty.
Apart from that, it's demolishing batteries at a ridiculously high rate. I have 5 year old PDA's which still function perfectly and that were used just as much a back then.
use radio 1.17
hi everyone,
i have HD2 for 3 years (his battery drain in standby is 5-10 mA) and recently i bought second one, and I'm having problem with his battery drain in standby it never goes under 40mA (with airplane on is the same thing). i did task 29, put the same radio (2.15.50.14), same clk and same rom (NexusHD2-ICS-4.0.4-CM9-HWA V2.7), I try juice defender and it is always above 40mA. On cpu spy I see that phone is in deep sleep 90% of time (similar like my first HD2). I try couple difrent roms and it never goes under 40mA in standby. i swap battery an it didnt change anything. is there anything that i could try or is it that some HD2 just cant get normal standby battery drain? what should I do, any advice will bi appreciated.
thx in advance
Seems like you've tried a fair amount, the only thing I can think of is that the hardware of the new HD2 is somehow faulty. Is the same issue present with all ROMs?

yes, with every (four) ROM standby battery drain is above 40 mA, I could try put back win 6.5 but that isn't why I bought this phone
A long shot, but perhaps a dodgy battery pin? Or maybe a dirty connection plate on the battery?
Have you switched the batteries to confirm its the phone not the battery?

yes I switch battery and it is the same, still big battery drain on second HD2 and normal on first. battery pins are clear an they looks to be good.
update,
first I put back win mobile 6.5 and battery would drain from 100% to 0% in 30 hours in standby , it is little bit better than android because on android battery last around 16 hours but still it is short standby time. After that I switch just motherboard from bad hd2 to good one and battery drain was bad where the second motherboard was installed, so it is something with motherboard or cpu or gpu and it is hardware problem. Maybe stronger battery could help bit, don't know what to do next

i reckon that 16hrs when its on android is good for a hd2 i have a hd2 with extended andina battery in i JUST get a full days use (ie 8am 2 10pm) with normal use thru out the day no mater what rom i have try'd and tbh ive try'd a lot and there on par with each other but if you have all the stuf on ,gps Bluetooth then i get about 6 hrs from it
as i have said b4 this phone was never ment to run android hence why the battery is better in winmo
I agree with you it that it isn't made for android, but there is to big deference between two hd2 that i have, anyway can you send me link of extended battery and what capacity is it?

i dont know ware you in the world but you can search worldwide id wait if you cant get one and see if one pops up ,also these gold hd2 batterys you see on there are crap ive try'd one there no better than the htc org battery the andida has a good name but you get what you pay for
have you tr'd a bigger partion on it you may have bad blocks or could be or have been overheated in the past (processor) thats also common i use the nexus 4.0.4 rom and i find it ok
to be honest i don't know, i got it last week for low price as used phone whit win mobile on. i did tray bigger partition it didnt help. but i think it might be damaged because last night I turned it off when it was on 20% battery (to save battery) and this morning I couldn't turn it on, battery was dead, so i think it has some hardware malfunction. i will try to find bigger battery (double size in capacity and in size), also don't believe in gold battery , not for that price, thanks for replay
Hi,
I have the galaxy s4 for almost 2months and now it has an annoying bug -
I have more than 50% battery and sometimes it get stucked (freezed) and restart itself, and he is failing to reboot until I plug him to the charger.
When he boots up it says that it has 0% battery, even though it had more than a half before it happened
What should I do?
Dead battery?

oh, I didnt think it would die so early.. shame on you samsung
can anyone suggest me from where should I buy a genuine battery? most ones at ebay are fake
Me2
Battery Is fully charged. As soos as I unplugged it. The warning appeared. Battery Critically low. Wtf. Phone is less than 2months old.
This only happened twice. Then I let the battery drain completely and recharged it completely. Now it seems fine.
Samsung.....no words.... :thumbdown: :banghead:
I had a friend who had the same issue, recovery showed a correct value.
Anyway, I took off the back cover and the battery was swolen, he got it replaced under his carrier's warranty the next day.

To recalibrate the battery go to the dial pad, and input x#0228# and a battery status screen will pop up, giving you some information about your battery and such, tap the Quick start, the screen should go off, then come back on might have to wait few secs. and you will notice your battery % might of changed. try doing it a few time until the % stops changing and give you a "real" battery %, then fully charge the battery. should fix any glitches with the battery being read incorrectly. if it doesn't work might mean your battery had it!
From my experience my battery was on 60% after few hours of use, then I recalibrated it and it went down to 20%, fully charged it now my battery lasting a lot longer than before
At least do a battery pull. Don't bother with apps and scripts that wipe battery stats. Do a pull, inspect for leakage, swollen , or damaged areas.

Thank you guys,
the battery looks like a new one, I cant see any damage on it

my bad, was *#0228#. Late night!
Guys last 1-2 week i started having battery problems. My phone dies when 10% battery left and when it has full battery it shows 89-95 etc i tried everything but nothing fixed the problem. Tried *#0228# code and didnt help and its not rooted so i cant use calibration apps. Only pulling the battery out solves it but after 1 usage it happens again. And its weird my 2 other note 4 user friend also started having this problem in same time any1 else has this problem or any1 knows how to fix it properly?
Sounds like a dead battery to me.
If the phone shutdown at 10%, it's probably because the voltage delivered by the battery is too low.
But the fact that your friends have the same problem is pretty strange. An app maybe ?

Dont think its an app and dead battery. Btw it doesnt only die at 10% sometimes 5% sometimes 7% its random. I think its just wrong calibration but it happens usually. Maybe fast charge effects battery dunno but its very annoying.
Defect charger that you both share? That ofc killed your batteries

Every1 uses their own charger. And im pretty sure my battery isnt dead i can still get 6 hours sot easyly.
im having the same problem.. it dies on me at 10%... last time on 20% cause i was like skypeing on 3g network for the last hour or so.. i got the phone SH so.. maybe replacing the battery will fix this?
Note 4 unrooted, Stock 5.1.1
Fast charging enabled, great battery life untill about a week agoo.
All the sudden my battery have been acting strange. For starters it drains extremly fast! tried every damn app to see what is causing that! Cant find any thing. removed the battery and still dosent help
And just now i had 13% battery and 1 secound later it was down to 1% !!!!
I put in the fast charger and it says it cant charge, but charge icon is still there!
1 secound later its 3% and after that it jumps to 40% then gets back to 25%
Sounds like a bad battery bub. My first battery went Ro hell randomly like that and I found it literally was just that battery. I ordered a replacement plus little charging back up kit on amazon and that battery is normal.

hmm! I susspect that to, but this happened pretty fast!
Untill a week agoo i had as mentioned great battery life! But then battery began to drain pretty fast. but the battery jump is totally new and i got this today while looking at the screen.
Can even add that now after a restart i got from 25% down to 16% just after a restart and cache clear :S

That's pretty much how mine started. It was at random, seemingly had no reason to do it honestly. But the first instance it had i believe 15% battery left and suddenly shut itself off lol afterwards I just got another battery on top of an extended battery which I refused to use the fast charging function with. I've read too much and experienced first hand it just wrecks batteries.
strange mine start doing the exact same today. Jumping from 60 to 20 to zero in minutes. Any one advise where to get genuine replacement, not the ebay crap.
Thanks

I live in Sweden, found many Original batterys.. So i dont think that would be a problem. The cost on the other side, thats a nother story!
Hmm.. I suspect fast charging as well. This is the first phone i used with fast charging, and first time that this happens to me.. And i have owned many phones. :S
Will close fast charging, thow its a damn good function.

Same thing happened to mine as well. Ended up buying a two pack of Anker batteries on Amazon, and it's worked like a champ ever since.
I had some really poor battery issues after 5.1.1, also about a month after dropping my Note in water...anyways, I did a factory reset after having 5.1.1 for a few days, and now the battery is doing great!!! 10 -12 hours with medium to heavy use.
I have now changed to a new battery and dont use fast charge anymore.. but now im using wireless charging instead lol
Anyways im still unhappy with the battery, i will do a reset when i get time.
I went from 50 to 1 one night. This was on KK. I upgraded to 5.0.1 (BOF) three days ago and the battery life seems more stable and longer lasting. Try letting it drain until it powers itself off (at night) and charge it off until it is full. I have had to do this on other Android phones (an S3 was one) and it corrected strange battery performance, readings.
