Batteries drain fast and stop at only 99% during charging..

Hello
I have a wired issue here after been using HTC D810, TytN 2 and now touch HD.
I flash the latest dutys R7 ROM and all work fine at first.Then this happening:
1. Heating up more then normal
2. Batteries drain so fast full charge last about 2-3 hours idling
3. Hard to charge ( i mean to see charging is taking place)
What i have done:
1. Suspected maybe this latest Rom R7 giving me problem, i down grade to R5 which i used without any problem. Same problem happen.
2. Buy a new batteries and now charging but seems it is stuck at 99%
Now I'm suspecting something when wrong at my hardware...
Any idea?
Anyone has come through this problem?
Any suggestion?
Thanks in advance

Are you using a custom taskbar? If so, with a registry editor, go to HKLM/Security/Resover/Bitmaps and change "BatteryIconLevels" from 101 to 102. You should get to 100%.

to be real with u when htc made the device with the rom on it it was to be at a good speed everything standard with a cooked rom the device has been modied to run at peak performance in some areas, bottom line ur not going to find the perfect device ... now to help slow the burn process there are a few programs and things u can do
1 change ur rom to a lighter rom.
2 change ur radio.
3 advance config to mode wat u use
4 slow ur memory for less consuption
5 in advance config setup device that when use like data then when in not use it will suspend .
6 hd tweak has a mod so when ur talkin on ur device the screen goes blk so less power is being used ... back lite change to 10seconds when not using a program close it these things that ive listed will help slow batt drain

[Q] i9505 turns off when stressed

Dear Friends,
I'm having a rare problem with my S4.
All used to be fine but now suddenly the device turns itself off when it's stressed. By stressed I mean during a call while switching to another application or watching a video for more than a few minutes. To me it seems like a battery broken because once I unplug the AC cable and run the benchmark the phone shuts off and usually when it gets to the GPU/Video related tests. When I plug in the AC cable and run the test everything works as usual.
Also when the phone has turned off randomly the phone has problems booting up. It will get to the omega boot animation restart again. The intervals are always different. Sometimes the logo spins for a few seconds and then it reboots again, sometimes it happens right away when the logo appears. Its almost that the phone does not have enough juice to boot up eventhough the battery is charged with 40% or so.
Once I plug in the AC cable the phone boots up normally. I doubt that it's the custom Rom (Omega 9.0 with stock omega kernel) that is causing the problem. It seems hardware related. I'm guessing:
- GPU
- Battery
What do you think is causing those random turn-offs ?
Should I exchange the battery or flash stock rom to check if it still happens?
Why does it make a difference if the AC cable is plugged in? can it be anything that is not battery related?
I'd love to have your opinions!
Best,
Thomas

Your using XXUBMGA right? I had this weird problem where the screen wouldnt turn back on unless i pulled the battery. I switched to the german firmware and all is fine. Its not hardware, trust me, same prob.

First go to stock rom mate, then check

Weird thing is i was using stock, even though exxi is using a modified rom it might not play nice with root/custom kernels. Dont know for sure though; just what i have observed directly.

Friends,
I've installed the Pre-Rooted Stock Rom UBMGA via Odin. Cleaned the phone completely. It booted up and during the first Sign up process (google account, wifi network setup etc.) it went off again with 80% charge. When I plug it to the charger I can continue the setup normally. It seems that whenver it starts any GPU related process (Video animation, Antutu menchmark, Quadrant, Games) it turns off without warning. I ordered a new bat. hopefully it will arrive next week but until then I will not know if the issue is battery or phone related. at this point I doubt that it's ROM related. What's your judgement on this?
Best,
Thomas

Any news? I've had Omega v7 and like two weeks ago it started to turn off suddenly... I thought battery run of or something, later on when this turn off happened and I turned phone on I had "black screen of death" or what to call it.. no launcher but status bar was ok, when I dragged status bar down I could open settings and change "homescreen" to basic and than back to normal and it worked...but... I couldn't use home button, it just showed black window that disappeared immediately. I backed up data and flashed Omega v11, after "tutorial" just after choosing language it showed this black screen again, so I've begun being suspicious it's hardware related. Morning after that it was working okey. Well...not really.. in app list one page of app was showing shadows of icons instead of icons, when i scrolled trough all pages it fixed. Later that day it turned off again. No turning off omega symbol, just.. like if you pull out battery. And those shadow icons were on two app pages. I've flashed nandroid backup of original ROM and when I browse gallery fast it turn off again... I suppose it's hardware related as it's not stuck to specific ROM. Maybe wrong battery? but more like motherboard I think. It also broke my sd card, because of multiple power failures probably. Also after this turn off battery drops down for like 10% or more. First screenshot - shadow icons..second screenshot - battery % drop

i have the same problem with one of the last stock release, in last 2 days my phone's system was totaly burnt because i've played a lot with roms kernels and tweak, and it started to give me also this kind of problem. So i flash by odin one of last stock firmware and it's ok, after a few minutes i've rooted again the rom and charged phone from 19% (at this percentage the phone turn off) to 100%. it seems to be okay, but at 63% it turn off again, so i pull out battery for some minutes, and after it continues to turn of after a few seconds...
(one of the tweak that i made was using "battery calibration" it clean battery stas that can be damaged by skipping between various rom, i used it a lot on galaxy nexus but maby this can be one of/the reason of problem)
Have u resolved by changing the battery???

Dear folks,
It's a battery related problem. When I changed the battery for a mumbi type new battery the phone works with no turning off. Problem resolved

[Q] help, phone reboots and battery turns 0%

ever since installing arrow rom V8, my phone sometimes crash and reboot from opening certain apps or even taking a picture... but that's not the weird part, its when my phone reboots and turns on again, but with the battery at ZERO percent. This happened 3 times already, and only on arrow rom.
When i take out the battery and put it back on again, it's still at ZERO percent battery... to solve it i have to turn off the phone and plug it in the charger at the same time.
Any advice why this happens? do i need a different kernel or a new battery?
thanks
im using i9500 octa version.

My guess is a new battery. Samsung already stated that some phones have bad batteries.

Samsung has started replacement of such batteries. Go to your nearest service station and get ur battery replaced. Even mine had the same problem but now works like a charm.

Problem battery note 3

Guys I have a problem for the battery of my notes 3. when loading the phone off me arriving at 100% then when I go to turn down towards 95% as ever ?? I also bought a new battery and always makes the same joke then I consume a lot. For example when I go to school not using it almost never goes down by 40%.
I have to bring in warranty you think?

Do a factory reset to rule out software problem?

Some further information would be great.
1. How old is your phone?
2. Customrom or stock? IceCreamSandwich, JellyBean, Kitkat or Lollipop? If customrom is it stockbased or cm/omni etc.
3. Did you charged your phone always using trustworthy chargers?
4. Do you use original spare parts?
5. Did you try to calibrate your battery? (never had a prob. with battery calibration, but you never know..)
6. Do you have a batterylog? Maybe there's a battery draining app.
Software related problems can be solved doing a factory reset or, if this doesn´t work, try to update to latest available android version.

boys then the phone has just 7 months old and I have always used products samsung original. use as OS 4.4.2 kitkat officer and I have done
several times factory reset etc but I always have the same problem.
as calibrations battery not having root permissions I never made.

do you have mp3 files on your Sdcard?i had a battery drain once because of an audio mix service.the cause was bad mp3 files.if so take a backup of them,delete the ones on your phone,see if the prob is gone or not.

I am willing to help but honestly i cant understand your english. can you show us the battery usage?

Just to clarify it,
you charge your phone untill it reaches 100%.
Then you plug it off and it instantly drops down to 95%
You did a factory reset and the issue persists
If this is correct it seems to be an issue with the charging controller. If you never modified your hardware/software (tripping knox or whatever) sent it to service.

Don't quiet understand what your saying?
You having issues with your battery draining quickly?
If so download Battery Doctor and it will display apps using your battery.
Try turning off bluetooth, wifi, any connection apps and see if that helps.
Your need to narrow the issue down.

Another strange battery thread

Hey,
yes i know: another battery thread. But tbh i havn't seen a thread with a similar problem description so far. Im using a Note 3 SM-9005
After my Note3 got super slow with normal samsung rom, i decided to flash it and install LineageOS 14.X. It works amazing! Feelt like a super new phone to me. Just some problems with rotation but i could life with that. One year later my battery started to drain faster. But a while after that i could fully charge my phone, watch some YT videos (like 20min overall) and then the phone just goes off. Its super hot near camera (processor i guess?) after turning it on again it was at 1%. 1 Month ago i tried to finaly fix it by flashing to LineageOS 15.X (Android 8.1) but the problem is still the same. And now its not just videos, if the phone screen is on for more then 20min it will turn off (even if it says 50%)
But not enough.
- After shutting down automaticly, it start itself again and shutdown again and so on. Until i plugin a charger then it stops doing it (or if i remove the battery).
- If im just listining to music it works fine (no screen on time), but while listining music in freezes for 1 up to 3 seccends (on avg every 10s one "freeze")
- It can happen after 5min of usage after charging it to 100% or i can listin to music for over 70min, than can have it in my pocket for 9 hrs, can hear music again for 70min and it still works (all of that with less to none SOT)
I havnt tried so much tbh, cuz i always thought it is a battery problem. But the new battery I got 2 days ago still has the exact same problem. I've read something about save mode and I booted it in save mode and the phone didnt get hot (not even warm!) with 20min SOT browsing (had no time to test it more). But the only apps that I have installed are Spotify, Firefox, WhatsApp and the Blizzard Auth.
Now i tested using a calibrate battery app (my phone isnt rooted but the app said it worked) and now im charging it up to 100% again to test it. But I dont think it worked.
Anyone here with more ideas I could try?

One full wipe and install stock rom .
Charge battery and test over two weeks .
Calibration app NO thats fake it does not and cannot calibrate a battery ( see multiple posts )
Its just the usual battery question and a search answers your question .

How long have you been using that battery? Get a new battery and your problem is solved.
I had similar problems with battery charging to 100% and suddenly going down to 50% and suddenly switching off. Changed battery and all was well again.

I just bought a new battery. TBH it defenetly cant be a good one for that cheap price. But I just flashed back to Stock Rom. With the old battery same problem, but with the new one it works good so far. nearly all bugs that came up the last few month are gone. While setting it up, the phone got really hot (it had to work pritty hard i guess to update everything). This is why JJEgan mentioned to use it for atleast a week i guess.
But an important question: is it possible to flash back to a new version again after like a week? Or am i now forced to use this stone age version of Android. (I guess all samsung apps can be removed if i decied to root the phone)
