disconnecting charger means immediate 100% to 99%

I remember that someboy have already said it, but i've not found on the forum a solution.
disconnecting the charger means an immediately pass from 100% to 99%.
why this bug?
how can we solve it?
thanks

Hmmm i think you must connect charger

This seems to be a much more common behaviour since 2.2.1 ROMs came out.
However a pattern is still to be extracted from this: for example, when i charge the phone while powered off, and then boot it, once boot is completed i was able to see 100% for 1-2 minutes even after finally unplugging the charger.

One guess is that Samsung changed "the mathematics of charging" the phone, at least while charging with phone on, and may have done something wrong with displayed charging levels, but not necessarily with battery life itself.
Another guess is that your "2.2-calibrated" battery is somehow different/seen differently from a proper "2.2.1-calibrated" battery. Could be a matter of recalibration, or a combination with the previous point.

At the moment is unknown.
This issue, and many others related to battery, it's currently being analyzed much more deeply in this thread.
For example, a user has just found out that 3rd party applications like Juice Plotter properly recognise 100% level even after unplugging the charger. This is interesting.
So it's still a work in progress.

It's just displaying it different. Battery meters are not accurate, that's just the way it is.
If the charger really kept your battery at 100% while it was on the charger then your battery would wear out very quickly. In reality it allows it to drop to around 90% after hitting 100%. The battery meter just stays at 100% for a bit on most phones so clueless users don't think something is wrong and wear their battery down by repeatedly forcing it to 100%.
Stop worrying over little 1 or 2% differences in battery readings, they are nowhere near accurate enough to judge such small differences.

It is interesting though, that this problem doesn't occur to me. I'm on JPY based Darky's rom v7, and the battery is reported as 100% for I don't know how long, after plugging in. I could confirm exactly how long but atm I'm testing to see how many days I can push out of the battery
Also, it doesn't seem like a problem to me. I think that maybe Samsung altered the algorithm for calculating battery level, because, pure technicly, a battery cannot house 100% while not plugged in.

Well they did change how they show the battery status in 2.2.1
You still has same capacity.
Think its better it show this way then 100% for 20 minutes before it moved to 99%.

I'm sure this is a ROM specific issue. ON JPX Rom (I think), the charge used to reduce from 100% to 97% instantaneously after removing the charger. This however, was resolved after I flashed to the newer JPY firmware.

Battery Drain while Charging, tried almost everything, need help!

Hi Guys,
Been following XDA for a long time but never had to post anything as everything had already had an answer to my question.
I know there are a lot of threads about battery drain but for some reason, everything I have tried has seemed to help minimally.
Here's the rundown.
I have a Galaxy S5 G900I running G900F custom rom, Resurrection Remix 5.6.7 Marshmallow.
Previously I was running the lollipop version of Resurrection Remix and battery was fine.
The phone is over a year old, but I have tested the battery with another S5 my wife has and it is perfectly fine. It charges fairly quick when the power is off on the phone and still fast enough while it's in use. Even if I am to open up a game on my wife's phone with my battery or hers, the battery continues to charge slowly while in use.
On my phone however, switched with both batteries, the drain is astronomical. I tested playing a game and I would lose practically 1% of battery per minute while in game.
What I have done so far is, installed Xposed, I have Amplify running following various guides which has slowed down the drain of my battery, I have installed Greenify which has also helped. I've turned off the scanning of wifi and bluetooth in locations. I have tried going back to stock rom which does help but it doesn't help me figure out the issue I want to fix.
I have tried switching power points in the house, changing usb cables, changing chargers, all of which do not help my phone with either battery, but on my wives it is fine.
I have also set CPU profiles in Rom Toolbox to lower CPU usage in idle, lower than 15% battery, while on charge. As of today, even while using the phone, I have limited the max CPU usage.
Prior to this latest updated Rom with Marshmallow, I could use my phone and have it plugged into my USB 3 on my PC and it would charge while in use unless playing a game or using a high demanding application, in which case, it would slowly drain. If in a power point adapter it would charge regardless.
Now, even in idle, on my PC, it drains while charging, and charges extremely slow on a power point.
I have searched for over a week trying to find any sort of guide or help with this problem and I have certainly minimized some of the drain but this is ridiculous.
If anyone has any idea's on what it could be, please let me know. I have tried cleaning all the dirt and gunk out of the charging point, the only thing I haven't done is pull apart the phone to see if its a hardware problem (Which I am starting to think it might be.)

have u tried with another usb cable?

Yes, I have tried various USB cables on various USB chargers, even non USB chargers I had laying around. And as I said, I have also switched the batteries into my wife's phone and they charge fine there.
The problems only started once I upgraded to Marshmallow.
It also persists when the phone is switched off and charging. It's just slow.

Do they persist while on L? Could possibly be a conveniently timed hardware failure.

Your default CPU 1900.0 MHz (8-core) this now running at 2400 MHz, you are lucky that the phone did not permanent damaged up to date.
Find S5 G900I compatible ROM and not what ever ROM.

try to factory reset your device 1st. if its only started after MM update then must be software issue.

Done that. Had a previous ROM installed and the battery was better. But I want to know how to fix the issue, I don't want to revert back to older software.
I know its possible because even with the same rom installed, before I bricked it and forgot to back it up, I had better battery life.

First thing I did was cap the cpu usage at 1900mhz.

Go back to stock lollipop and check if u still have the problem

It seemed that you did that unsuccessfully, OR you battery gets old and needs replacement.
At about 400 charging times, the battery this is now at 80% capacity or less.
In my S5 I have permanently activated basic power saving mode, this clocks the CPU always lower than Max.
The phone seems happy, and I am too.

By using one Qualcomm App I discovered how low is low with basic power saving mode on.

Flash a custom Kernel and you can set it more or less as low as you like

S5 this is a very complicate device, I am trusting only Samsung about it.
If this was an old tablet with out ROM support from anywhere, in this case I would.

Having trouble finding a custom ROM that's a stable build that runs on S5 and on Marshmallow. Would you happen to know any in particular that I could use?

consider buying a new battery

I use a stock MM port G900FXXU1CPD7-BTU
But you could just flash a compatible custom Kernel and then have control over the CPU/GPU clocks

This one looks like it supports stock TW 6.0.1 MM for the G900F
http://forum.xda-developers.com/gal...kernel-phoenix-kernel-v7-marshmallow-t3340407
But like always, do your own research before flashing
EDIT - Actually it looks like the dev has left out OCing from this Kernel, not sure about downclocking/under volting - maybe request it in his thread

Samsung Note 4 N910C battery drain

Hello and Happy New Year to all,
*
I came across an issue with my Note's (N910C) battery today and I would like your opinion on it.
*
A quick background:
*
The phone has never been rooted.
9-10 months ago I downloaded an official firmware (6.0.1) which I flashed via Odin and it began to drain the battery very fast, killing the phone in less than a day.
I got a new battery, but the problem was still there.
Eventually I tried another firmware which worked nicely and consumption returned to normal levels. Since then, I had no problems whatsoever.
Yesterday night I got a notification to update. I had already done another two in the past - if I'm not mistaken - , without noticeable difference.
I did the update overnight and I removed the charging cable in the morning. It seemed that it was a little warmer than usual, but I did not pay attention.
The battery percentage was reducing at the rate of 1% per minute and it died within 2 hours.
I checked battery info, nothing abnormal.
I have two questions:
*
1. Does anyone have similar experience with this model (or other)?
2. If I reinstall the previous firmware, normally the problem should be fixed, right? I mean it started after an official update which AFAIK affects native apps only.
*
Thank you in advance

I have noticed on my Note 4, after upgrading to marshmallow, the battery drained like crazy too. It would drain 10-20% when I use it for 20 mins or so. The battery that I'm using is a 'new' one that I bought just about a year ago although the problem still occurred when it was fairly new.
I'm speculating that there might be some sort of battery or software issue with marshmallow as the original battery that came with the phone also had the same issue. It would drain fairly quickly until one day it just stopped working and would boot loop until I plugged it in to the charger.
Ever since marshmallow, I have never seen my battery get to 15% before switching off completely. Sometimes even 45% lol.

I had a faulty N910F and got another (used) one and it's had occasional forced closes at between 15-20%. This worries me that it might go the way of the old one where it developed the issues with it freezing and the frequent reboots....does yours exhibit any other issues?

Yes. Unfortunately. Currently, it would just die halfway even when I'm at 50%? That's the highest that I've noticed. So I had to charge it up for a bit maybe to 60% and it would be fine before dying around the 20+ - 40% mark. Previously, the original battery that came with the phone had this weird issue where the battery won't hold any charge even when it's fully charged. Like it will go to a bootloop when I've unplugged it even though it's at 100%. When I bought the new, current battery I noticed that it would still die off at 15-20% and the original battery became bloated a few months later.
Are you using any custom roms? The bootloops and freezing could be related to using some custom roms. I changed from a N7 port to a deodexed stock rom and the frequency of the freezing and reboots just plummeted. Reboots only happening when the battery is close to dying.

Ah right, so you had only the reboots, nothing else? That's fair enough.
No, it's nothing at all to do with the ROM. I'm stock but LOTS of people have had the same issue. As it stands, the only way to fix it is to get a new mobo :crying:

Well besides the usual overheating that's related to our snapdragon CPU, nothing much but mostly battery issues.
Although there is thread that I'm following that promises to fix the 15-20% issue. Checking their method to see if it works or not

hey can you give me the link of that firmware that improved your battery life

I had a similar problem with fast battery drain - did a factory reset and it's back to normal. Make sure you're using a battery from a reputable source like RavPower (don't think there are any genuine Samsung ones left and Anker stopped making them).

SM-N9005 LTE Charging at an incredibly slow rate

So I recently installed an unofficial Lineage OS Rom and replaced the charging port of my Samsung SM-N9005. Had some battery troubles here and there, but this new issue take the cake. On the lock screen, it says it is charging to full in 17 HOURS
I have no idea what could have caused this since it only recently happened with the same , and even launching Lineage OS in safe mode will still show 17 hours to charge.
Will changing to a stable Rom help? (Running 14.1-20170426-UNOFFICIAL-hlte)

Flash your stock rom and test .
Battery calibration takea a week or so of use.

I remember trying Resurrection Remix (I know it is not the same ROM) and when I connected the phone, it always showed "Charging slowly" on the lock screen and it charged normally which made me think it was highly inaccurate. I'd say you might have a similar issue as to where it won't actually take the full 17 hours to charge, it just says that because it is inaccurate. I'd try another ROM instead or try this ROM out for a couple of days and see if it ACTUALLY does take 17 hours to charge.
Edit: Oh and by the way, replacing the charging port is not always a solution to an original problem. What I mean by that is that I once had a phone and I replaced the charging port and right away I noticed it didn't charge as it used to charge, it went way slower. Port replacement is very tricky and if done incorrectly, your phone won't charge as it needs to.

I had to replace the charging port as the bottom half of my phone dropped in water, if not it would never charge. Thanks for your help, I'll try out your suggestions!

Hello! Please Heeeelp!

Help, Since couple days ago my phone's battery its draining so fast.... Worst of all, in sleep mode. With the screen Turn Off (23:00hrs to 07:00hrs) the loss charge from 90% to 15%....
I've install Custom Rom, Arvanasoft, Xiaomi.eu, Chinese beta, MiuiPro.... carbon, Paranoid, RR...etc. I've already flashed different Firmwares (right now 7.11.2)...., Recovery's.... and Right now I am on Stable Global MIUI8 8.5.4.0.... and Still Battery draining.
I checked battery status on menu *#*#4636#*#* and everything its ok. Battery Status:Good. Battery Scale 100.... Temperature: 37.2C.....
I dont Know what more to do, my priority and the reason I choose this phone overall was the Battery.
Please, if the problem it's the battery I am ok, I just buy another, but everything look good...
