my mda says that it has like 93% battery life and while im scrolling around on the web after 15 minutes the phone just automatically SHUTS OFF and restarts saying low battery life and then it dies again. whats the deal with that? what do i have to do to fix this? its sooo annoying. any help will be greatly appreciated!
you might be out of RAM..
close some apps that are running..
IE eats up a bunch of RAM..
Looks more like a faulty battery to me! OUT OF RAM or LOW RAM never will give out the message: LOW BATTERY.!
If you have the chance to try another battery (maybe you own a second one or a friend might have the same device) just give it a shot ...
i tried with a different battery. the phone still reboots if your on the phone or interenet for longer than 10-15 mins. whats up with this?
I have EXACTLY the same problem with my phone. This phone is onlt 1 month old and was a replacement for a previous MDA that had SD card problems...
I have the exact same problem. When I don't use WiFi the battery lasts for several days. But when I use Wi-Fi in 10-15 minutes it restarts and shows battery very low.
I have noticed that if I connect and immediately disconnect the charger, it shows that there is a lot of power left in the battery and the phone will actually last a while. It definitely can't charge it so fast, so somehow its getting confused about how much battery is left.
Can anyone help with this, please?
I just did a clean install of the official T-Mobile Rom, and the problem is still there. The phone keeps restarting.
Help please.
right there with you guys. ihave and 8125 and they same thing happens i am just glad i have a spare phone. Bad very BAd.
Guys
Junner2003 is right. The problem is a failed cell in the battery. If you don't put the wizard under any load it will last for a while however as soon as you ask it to do something (like use the internet) it dies real quick.
Get a new battery (not a second hand one that you know nothing about) and the problem will go away. I had the same problem a few months ago and went through all the same issus mentioned on this forum but a new battery solve the issue once and for all.
Thanks for the input, jt_armstrong. I'll replace the battery and report back here. I am thinking I about getting a high capacity one like this one

Hey everyone. jt_armstrong and Junner2003 are right. At least in my case changing the battery seems to have solved the problem.
I got the high capacity one from ebay, and so far it has been working perfectly.
Hello all,
I bought the HD a couple of months after it first was released and have never had this problem until about 3 days ago, where my phone has started to suddenly "die" even with ample battery life in it. When I reboot it, it simply starts to reboot then dies again as if the battery is dead, however, when I plug it into the charger, it shows that it has over half to almost full battery life. So the problem can not be that the battery is simply dying. What could be causing this problem? I have ample free main storage and program memory and it occurs even when there is only one program running or even when I'm just in the middle of a call.
Can anyone help me solve this problem? I have tons of medical programs in my phone which took forever to install and don't want to hard reset the phone, especially if that is not even the solution to the problem. Help?
Same thing happened to me, but my phone gets some water. I had to dry it and wait a month. Then it worked fine. If your phone hasn't took any water the problem must be elsewhere.
One question, it dies even if attached to the power? or only on battery?
If it dies only on battery then could be the battery not working properly.
bye
Batteries do weird stuff when they're dead. If it works OK on power but not on battery, chances are the battery is indeed on its way out. If you don't want to do a hard reset, a replacement battery on ebay is cheap and worth trying.
Hello,
I have exactly the same behavior. I changed of Rom, different build, each time running Task29, but it is always the same thing :
- when charged, phone never dies
- when on battery, it randomly dies but always when phone is awake
I think too it may come from the battery, so I just ordered a new one, and I'll keep you up to date.
Ciao,
Yea, so far it has occurred about 4 times, always when it's not plugged in however the battery meter shows alof of battery time left. I'm thinking it's the battery too, it just sucks to have to pay so much for an OEM battery. Oh well, thanks for the help everyone.
Hello,
so I received my new battery this morning.
After some phone calls and some tests...so far so good ! I'll tell you if something's change in the next days, but it seems changing the battery is the solution.
Cheers,
Mine started doing similar things. Guess I will order a battery too. Which one did you get?
Well I got the exact same one I had previously : an official htc touch hd battery.
Part number : 35H00120-01M.
I hope this one will last until I really want to change my phone .
Any more issues since replacing the battery?
still no issues so far. I am really happy because as the battery is new, my phone last much longer than before.
Same here. Got the new battery yesterday and it's back to it's old self. Now it should last me until the dual core processor Android devices come out next year.
Well it would be nice if my pnone only turned off when it wasnt on charge but it seems to just reset itself whenever it wants. it will simply turn off and start right back up sometimes not even reaching the rom load before it turns off again. It does this for a while or just simply once. I tried erasing all data off it and hoping it was something i uploaded but it could be that my battery is just no good anymore.
Any suggestions? ive been dealing with this for 6 months
I don't know about you, but I played quite a lot with my phone, trying a lot of ROM, for a while, even beta ones, and I tried to overclock it. Often the phone would heat up a lot. It may have be hard on the battery.
Right now I am using a stable rom of NRG from last month, with the new battery, and everything is fine. The phone never heat, and I happy for now.
Like Marksm, I am waiting for Android dual core phones or at least based on Tegra 2.

As pointed out in above posts, a change in battery appears to have rectified issue
been there done that. Didnt work, i got a new phone but i would really like to keep this.
This happened a few years when I had my first battery.
When the charge gets to a certain level - in the first case, it was about 50% - the machine simply switched off and refused to boot until the battery was fully charged again. Of course, with 50% left, there should have been tons of juice to keep powering the thing.
The same is happening now - but when the charge has gone down to 70%. Why? There should be plenty of juice, but the machine once again seems to think that there is insufficient to run the machine.
I really love the Uni, of all the HTC devices I still think the world of it, and I am reluctant to waste even modest amounts of money on fake replacement batteries which only last a couple of weeks, so what do I do?
Is there some registry tweak which will stop this process happening? How do I tell the machine just to soldier on, ignore the fact that the battery may be a little weaker than before?
Any suggestions welcome,

You need to buy a new one, not much else to do. You could try battery reviving techniques (freezing etc.) but I doubt they'd be effective - I have a similar battery that dies on 85% and nothing works. It's not a software problem. I'd get a few from different sources so you'll have spares and at least one or two will work without problems.
I get what you're saying, I also love my Jasjar to death, though more as a PDA than as a phone. If only we could stick HD2's internals and screen in it

Get a new battery 15-25US on ebay
thanks guys, it is something which seems to affect the Universal - I have never had this with other gadgets.
I am going to try to "recalibrate" the battery one last time, then if that doesn't work, off to ebay I go.
On the point of the HD2's screen - I actually like the Jasjar because it is still the old-fashioned VGA, I find some software doesn't run on the WVGA of the newer devices.
thanks again,

Hello guys,
I bought my N4 sometime in July 2013. I rooted/flashed it from day one and it's been great. But for the last 5-6 months, the battery drained rapidly and on restart, it use to recover somewhat. Initially, I thought that my battery is just dying.
So I went to the service centre and bought a new battery. (The old battery actually swelled up and cracked the glass back too! :| ) The new battery was at 58% and by the time I paid the bill, it became 28%
I showed it to the service guys and they told me that most probably my PCB is gone and I need to replace it with a new one.
But I am still not sure if that is the issue. Can it be something else? Like a kernel misconfiguration or corrupt battery stats?
Problem
On normal usage, the battery drops vertically. and becomes almost 0.
If I restart the phone, it again recovers to a normal level i.e. if I started using it at 90% and it went to 0%. On restart, it would come up to 70%
I got a new battery yesterday and it is also showing the same issue. Initially, I thought it was the old damaged battery.
I have attached a screenshot of the battery graph.
The new miscellaneous battery usage section of Lollipop goes up to 135%! :crying: I am sure there is a leak somewhere.
Current Instance
I have attached a screenshot of the ROM/Kernal Details
Few options that I have narrowed down:
Restore the CWR back up of my initial version when I first flashed a new ROM
Completely wipe the phone and do a fresh install of Lollipop using the stock image on the Google website
If nothing else works, I don't think spending Rs 12k (INR) on a new PCB makes any sense. I already spent Rs 1k on the batter and Rs 4.8k on a broken screen T_T
Would love your views and any solution/direction you can provide. I will really appreciate it
Thank you so much!
