Hello. I am using b528 rom.
And my battery goes around 3-4 hours. I always charge, i dont know how my battery became so bad. I am using it for 1 year and 5 months. I always left on usb charge on nights, i use even if it has low charge etc, so mybe because of those.
So now i want to buy new battery because i need this phone. Maybe usingh two batteries can help me?

Like that, a home charger, charging the 2. battery in the night and next day, when main battery finished, i can use other.
Or

Connect your phone without battery. After it completely boots put your battery in the phone for 5 minutes and see if it charges or not.

I dont know, maybe it can hardm the software. I did this after minutes of showing "no charging", it stupidly started to charge. For 20 minutes, it is now around %8.
I think my cable has problem because when i move the cable, it disconnects. But my battery is not best i think. I wiped battery stats, fixed permissons. I dont know what to do now. I dont want to buy another battery but i dont know.
Update
I told i used my brother's usb cable and it charged until %8. Then i connnected my usb cable, it showed it was charhging but it was still %8 after 10 minutes so i took of, and then it showed %1. So i think my cable is broken? Now i am charging via ac but phone shows usb charging and it is still %2. Should i countinue or take off ?

Keep it on for atleast 20mins in USB w/o battery in. Then insert battery and charge for about 2 hrs w/o touching. It should be about 5%. Let it charge all night w/ AC.

Hello all, I'm having the same issue with an AT&T Impulse 4G, aka the wonderful Huawei U8800-51... This is running the stock AT&T OTA 2.2 froyo version, never been rooted or messed with.
It won't charge really at all, and I've tried a new battery also. It will boot and run OK when connected via USB, with no battery installed. I've only been able to get it to 12% battery, I did this since I wanted at least 10% charge to do an FDR. It won't last when charging on the AC, I've gotten the battery to around 5% on USB and then powered it off, then plugged it into the wall charger. I've tried both the Huawei OEM charger (1mA) and a replacement charger (650mA).
After a while of being plugged into the wall, the phone won't boot and the red LED just stays lit. I have to remove the battery and plug it in via USB to get it to boot again.
Is there anything in the OS that can go wrong and not let it charge the battery? (even though the screen shows the lightning bolt in the battery icon). I've gotten a battery monitor widget installed from Wifi. Other than that nothing has been installed whatsoever, it's FDR wiped, cleared cache, and the only other thing I've done is surfed the web a few times to verify connectivity after each FDR.
Or do I have a hardware problem? I've used different AC and USB cords, wiggled them a little bit in the port on the phone - it doesn't do anything and it's all the same - it just won't charge.
Or do I need to charge the battery externally somehow to some decent level and then throw it in the phone? Is there anything I can try to do from the basic OS or an app I can try to revive a battery (I have two) and get it to at least charge the battery fully just once so I can mess with it for more than a few minutes at a time?

I don't think the USB port itself is broken, since I don't lose/gain/drop any charge or data transfer by wiggling various cables that I've used.
When plugged into a computer via USB, I can see all the drives on the device fine, including the removable microSD card and I can access files on the microSD card just like any other USB device.
I measured the voltage at the - and + battery terminals on the phone,obviously without the battery installed, I get 0.60 VDC on USB and 0.81 VDC when plugged into several known-good wall chargers (including the OEM Huawei wall charger which says it's a 1 amp charger, and another generic microUSB wall charger which is labeled 650 mA).
So, I can't see how that would charge a 3.7 volt battery - it actually would be draining the battery like a vampire. This is why I think there's something wrong between the USB port and those battery terminals. But I just don't know if it's wiring/board stuff, or the stock Froyo somehow.
I also measured the two batteries I have.... one is at 2.97 VDC and the other at 3.06 VDC, so I assume those are flat dead basically. Both of them are basically brand new. The original battery was an AT&T replacement that my wife got just before she just bought an iphone instead, got sick of this thing.
I will try to get a battery calibration app when I get it back on wifi, it basically only works after I do an FDR and then put a battery in after having it already plugged into USB (otherwise, I get wifi "error"). But I'm really thinking I'm going to have to just disassemble this thing and see if anything is burned/broken/etc. Or does someone just want it on the cheap??

OK, so I bought an external wall charger that charges the battery separately from the phone (and it came with yet again another battery for $7). So I have now 3 good, full batteries.
I rooted it via SuperOneClick, and installed CWM, all thanks to the root guide here on XDA. (thanks!) Everything went fine and the device appeared to function correctly, although as I was doing all this, and setting the phone back up, the battery would go from 75-60-55-50-45-40% in a matter of minutes.
But once I got it done and rooted, I went and got the battery calibration app. Put in a fresh battery at 100& and wiped the stats (I've now done this several times). The battery definitely lasts a good bit longer, but still drops pretty quickly so I will try to find some new ROMs here shortly.
The only thing that is still very strange, is that if I shut the screen off or if it goes off on its own, it will not wake up.... I have to pull the battery and it works fine on reboot. Any ideas?
Last night I was charging my S4 in my car adapter, but noticed the cattery was still going down. I went home and plugged it into my AC (wall charger) and went to bed. The next morning the S4 was dead and couldn't charge. The only solution was to plug it in my computer and went an hour for it to get some charge back.
I have a root i337m running rootbox 4.1, and I went into TWRP to wiped the phone and installed the ROM again - no luck.
Is this a battery issue, a software issue or a whole device issue? Thanks.

I don't think its a rom issue. I tried charging via USB as well and had phone charging a few hours and it ate crap. So I only charge via AC outlet only. USB charges but at a very slow pace.

I made an error in the OP - I meant to say I left it to charge on the wall and I got nothing.
Right now, the charge light doesn't even come on if I plug it with AC.

I doubt it's a ROM issue, but there's no harm in reverting back to stock to see the results (assuming you've backed it up). If it all fails, i think you should unroot and send it to Samsung for the warranty. Software problems are somewhat easier to fix here than hardware, so it may be the best option to let Samsung handle it.
I had similar problems with my Note 2 before and now with my S4. What I found was, sometimes the usb cable wasn't tightly plugged into the wall charger. Once I've made sure of this, I've been able to charge (AC) every time.
I found this article that indicates that the S4 is looking for special sauce on the D+D- pins.
http://www.anandtech.com/show/6914/samsung-galaxy-s-4-review/2
Obviously the Galaxy S 4 will charge with any USB charger, but the charge time will simply be longer. Samsung uses a voltage divider and signals the presence of their own charger by sending 1.2-1.3 V across the D+ / D- pins, this is similar to what Apple does with 2.0 or 2.8 V across the pins for various USB chargers they've shipped over the years. This signaling is essentially Samsung's proprietary tablet charging signaling which they've employed on the Galaxy Note 2 and now SGS4, in fact the two use the same exact charger, so it's worth tossing out your old ones and getting the appropriate one to take advantage of the faster charging.
However I do not believe this to be 100% true. I think not all chargers will work..
I took a charger that is very vanilla (Wall charger but the D+D- pins are NC) and it works with the S3 and NEXUS7 but does not work with the S4.
This charger uses a stock USB cable so I took a wall charger that had gone bad but had a dedicated cable and hacked off the end and wired up my own cable...
That works! So it appears that the S4 will only charge properly with certain chargers that do something to the D+D- pins (either shorting them with a resistor like the article indicates
I then took a look at the cable I used to replace. It is a Motorola cable and it has the ID pin pulled high built into the cable... So I suspect that is required for the phone to work... But to fast charge it will need the special sauce indicated above!
Had the same issue and found the solutions which worked for me. Go into the developer mode and deactivate the usb debug mode.
Had the exact same issue. I took a soldering iron to my charging port on my phone. Problem solved. The ID pin had a bad joint.

I have a strange issue, my s4 is detected by pc, charges normally with usb ( wall or pc charge ) my battery is full but when I take the cable from microUSB port and s4 should work with the battery, turns off and consumes no battery, it's like refusing to use the battery and that it is full! battery checked on a sph l 720
I've tried installing other roms with safestrap but I still have the same problem, refuses to consume battery and while the battery is at 100% ,my s4 shows 0% if I disconnect the usb cable... game over. However, I can be on the safestrap menu for hours only with the battery, no problem, is a problem of rom I think but did not know how to fix it .. : (
I'm having the same issue as the original poster. The USB port is good, charges fine when connected to PC (although much slower because of different mVS). Have tried amidst everything and nothing fixes it. I've turned debugging mode off and back on, restore to backup, complete wipe and reinstall of 2 ROMs with and without apps, fix permissions, different kernels, different USB cables... The adaptor is in good condition. But when plugged in while on my phone doesn't recognize that's it's connected. Previously out would give a false charging reading. If off sometimes I got the grey bar battery but note is just vibrating every few seconds. Idk what to do...

I'd guess it's the charger. Get a new one
Sent from my Nexus 5 using XDA Free mobile app
I had the same problem. S4 will recognize charger as USB charger, not AC. solution was to clean usb port connector, was some cloth covering wires. then restarted and worked ok
I am having trouble charging the phone the same way. I have reset the phone 3 times and still can't get a charge.
I have had ongoing charging issues.
My original micro USB charging cable stopped functioning after some time. I switched to another one that worked very well for a few months. Than that one stopped working. I would plug either one in and it wouldn't recognize. I finally wrote it off as a faulty micro USB port so I ordered a POGO cable.
I got the cable yesterday and it started charging immediately. I got up to about 37% and than charging stopped. I unplugged, replugged, rebooted, etc. I left it on the charger over night. It's consistantly loosing power. I even tried switching it off and than charging without being booted. The battery charging indicator would come on, show the charging animation than disappear and continue to die.
I'm getting quite frusterated at this point. I am running CM 10.2. I have a sneaky suspicion that the culprit might be a corrupted part of the rom. My next step is to try things like factory wipe or flashing a new version of a rom. If that doesn't work, I don't know what else to try.
Any ideas?
Solved
It turned out to indeed be some problem with the rom. After doing a factory reset, it started to charge in the correct direction. I'm now at 100%.
Out of curiousity, does anyone know what would happen to a rom to make it drain a batter, even when connected to a charger?

If for some reason it is using 100% of its CPU, the Nexus 10 can potentially draw more power than the microUSB or Pogo chargers can provide.
I have rooted phone.
with clock work 6.0.4.7
Installed Android L Preview ROM for Nexus 4
Everything runs fine.
Problem/Error.
While on charge it is showing charging on USB even while connected to the socket it should be Charging normal/ Ac Charger/ charging.
disadvantages: device heating up. Charging slow.
Turning of the phone.
Charging while turned off, starts charging then it reboots into the recovery. after few seconds.
Please need help.
FIXED.
Flashed 4.4.4 Nexus 4 stock rom.
everything working fine.
Rooted and had nothing wrong with the recoveries or anything the Android L rom i flashed had issues. waiting for a fix.
try a different charger or chord, most likely its one of those items fault.

Thanks for the reply bro.
Everything worked just fine before the root and the Rom installation. The charger and the chord works fine on other nexus 4. Used samsung s3 charger chord as well it detects it as "Charging via USB" not "Ac charger" and if i charfe after shutting down phone. It boots into the CMW it self after dew seconds and stays there. Device heating up both ways.
try a different charger. they go bad and often. if its not producing enough voltage, then the phone will see it as usb. itll see anything as usb if it doesnt provide enough volts/watts.

Did a reset from CMW now while turned on it detects as AC charger tho charging took long. Turn off it boots into the CMW recovery it self.
Me too, using the stock charger it will charge as USB; but when using car charger, it will charge as AC... stock ROM + kernel.... try different USB cable also same, I suspect is the charger having some problem...

I'm using Amazon basic cable and a S8 charger
When I connect my phone to a new charger it charges but after I disconnect it doesn't want to charge anymore I've tried 3 different chargers all the same results
I don't have any charge issues, not using original cable though, I am using a third party cable, more reliable and durable.
This is my second x727, I lost the first one and bought a replacement, and I don't know if I'm the only one but sometimes when I leave the phone charging overnight I wake up and the phone is dead, 100% charged but dead as in black screen, not responding, phone is cool, not hot or anything, it just seems to be dead.
Even the charging led is turned off, alarms don't run and I found that the only way to fix it is to force reboot (vol down + power for like 5 seconds).
When it boots back, everything is fine, 100% charge and no errors, I've had this issue with both phones, so this suggest it is a known issue with this model.
Is this something someboy else has experienced?
