My friend got the battery and I have the battery. I've had it for months now. He has had a used one for two days and now his phone won't turn on, it will only turn on if you plug it in to give it a charged turn on, the charger can then be disconnected and normal use can he used for a little while and then the phone will cut out and not turn back on.
I wiped battery stats and the battery is fully charged

You can use osmonitor from the market to get info on the battery. It should show you the voltage, battery health, if the temp sensor is working etc. If it all looks good but the voltage starts to drop quickly soon as the phone is unplugged than you have a bad battery.
Once I unplug the battery seems fine, just out if the blue for instance 45 minutes later ill go into music change a song and bam phone dies

sounds like it may be loose, have you tried wedging paper or something behind it to hold it tight against the contacts?
No I haven't

my battery drains fast and i dont know what to do.
ive installed juice defender and did everything else to limit the battery drain as much as possible.
one thing ive noticed is that my screens brightness is set to low, but on my battery stats it says Display 64%
and recently my system says 30%
i left my phone on the charger overnight. and it got unplugged from the charger, when i woke i looked at my stats and the display was at 64%
the phone signal bar was filled and it was bright yellow.
and my system said 34%
can anyone help me?
When you plug it into a wall charger, can you confirm its charging AC and not USB
How old is the battery? Have you checked all the software that are automatically sync ?
I think that you must dig deep on what's your battery being used and consider the age of the battery in there too

Yes I can confirm it, it says ac charging

There are battery monitoring apps that you can find to monitor unusual activity.
Now your display is at 64% which is very peculiar.

Could it have something to do with sense?

Try System Panel, it's in the market. Best app I've found for monitoring battery consumption, especially when you need more details than the About Phone section under settings provides. It is a premium app, but cheaper than a new battery. Hope you find a solution quick! Battery problems are a pain.

Have you tried calibrating your battery? Charge to 100%, then boot into recovery and wipe battery stats (or you can use the Battery Calibration app). Let the phone discharge fully - don't plug it in until it dies - then charge back to 100% without breaks.
It could also be an issue with your usb cable or charger. Sprint can run a test on the battery to see if it is the problem. Try calibration first to rule that out, and never wipe battery stats unless you're fully charged.

What I just did was downgrade my radio one. My battery has been so much better in life. I am at 7 hrs right now at 66%. I have been using 4g, texting, and sending emails. Currently running Decks 1.3, SZ 2.2.1 CFS Havs.

That is a clockwork/battery stats bug. Don't reboot without plugging into a charger below 50%. If you pull the battery and wait a few minutes and put it back in and boot it will go back to where it was.

mines do it ALL the time.. I can be at like 60 something percent and then I will hear the warning message that my battery is under 15 percent.. I can be at like 40 percent and reset my phone and it will be at like 8 percent.. I use the "Battery Calibration" app at least once a week to try and fix it.. and nothing.. I also have tried it on more then one battery and same thing..
Hey kenny, allow me to help with this one. Charge ur phone completely being on first and then off. Once its done, boot into cwm and wipe ur battery stats. Then reboot and use ur phone till it completely dies

Hi, I'm running CM10 with Lean Kernel and It drained the **** out of my battery so out of no where I find my phone at 3% battery life eventually it died but now its not turning on. Any ideas where to go from here to fix the problem?
I'm not trolling you, I promise. Plug it into the charger for a while, then try to turn it on?
What have u tried? Did u try leaving it to charge a bit? Pull battery out for 10-15 seconds put it in and hold power button, does it do anything?

Well its been about 10 minutes now, but if the phone isn't showing any signs of charging I don't see the point to keep it plugged in.. And no I cannot enter CMW.
EDIT: download mode works
EDIT2: phone turned on when I plugged it into laptop, but somehow the battery charged up to 34% in less than 15 minutes.
Maybe ur charging block or usb? U using oem?

I kinda think its that kernel, it don't play nice with some phones, especially if you oc, I had the same setup as you and the same thing happened to me, only my phone froze making a weird siren type sound, requiring a battery pull, the phone was horribly hot to where I couldn't hold it. The thing wouldn't turn on, it would eventually turn on after hitting the back real hard and plugging it into the charger repeatedly until I felt it vibrate, I immediately returned it to stock, reset flash counter and took all my stuff off the storage. Low and be hold it froze and never turned back on after that so I got lucky, I had it replaced. Hopefully this isn't what happened to you. But ever since I got my replacement, I stopped downloading custom kernels because I notice absolutely no difference in day to day usage except the phone becoming extra hot even with light task and minor oc, and random reboots. The stock CM kernel is perfect, has awesome battery and the phone never gets higher than 101 degrees. If you're someone who bases their decisions on quadrants, by all means, flash these kernels, but my personalrrecommendation FOR THIS PHONE is to stick with stock kernel.
Side suggestion. Unplug the battery, plug it via USB until the phone is fully powered(lock screen) and plug in the battery. I stress this enough, Do Not Unplug It until it reaches 30%. It will take a while for it to reach 1%, maybe 1/2 to 1 hr
Didn't see last post.

All you have to do is let it charge for 10-15 minutes and then unplug, let it boot, and then plug it back in. Turning the phone on while its plugged doesn't work so well for some reason.

This is the correct answer.
So earlier today I had an issue where when I would dial a number my phone wouldn't actually dial, it just sat there. So I restarted it and then realized it was very hot, so I opened setcpu and it's min was 1056 which it has been 384 so I changed it back and it immediately cooled off. But then my battery had drained 50% so I put it on the charger and now it won't charge. It has the charging symbol but it doesn't go up. So I rebooted into recovery and wiped cache, dalvik and fixed permissions and it's still doing it. I'm on li8 stock rooted.

How long have you left it charging? Leave it for a few minutes.
Try charging it with your phone off.
Can you mount your phone to your computer? If you can, this can eliminate a faulty port.
If it is showing the charging symbol it is charging.

Yeah normally that is true except this time. It's been on the charger for 15mins and has lost 1% battery while ON the charger. I use this charger every day too.

Uninstall setcpu? What processes are active? Try a different charger? Turn the phone completely off like someone mentioned.
I'd blame an app. They're not tested with leaks so it's silly to expect them to be perfect.

I've been running this for over a week with no issue and no new apps installed. Found out that "media" with the "downloads app" icon is running real high in system usage even after a fresh reboot its like 40-50% of usage.

Hello, I have a weird issue going on with my s3. My phone discharges like crazy when my data is on, and by that I mean it even discharged when connected to a charger. Also the phone only charges when connected to usb, and does not charge when connected to wall charger, even tho it shows the phone is charging but the battery percentage stays static. I have tried changing batteries, chargers everything. I also changed roms, formatted the whole thing, reinstalled and still the issue remains. Is there anything I can do? Please help.
Thank you.

Seems like you have something running in the background when you data is enabled. Perhaps a app using GPS and data.
I'd download BBS (BetterBatteryStats) to narrow down the issue. Also, when you go under settings->battery, anything suspiciously high?
I have looked at battery usage abs android system is always usually high. Here is the screenshot.

Download BBS (you can find it on xda). Charge your battery to full and post the results once your battery is down to like 50-60%.
Android system can be a lot of things, seems you have awful signal though. That could be it, have you tried flashing another modem?
Actually I'm not on my hometown, this the signal is bad...otherwise usually u have good signal. Anyway I'll install bbs and get back with more data. Thanks for replies.

Do you have touch keys (tone) on? If so, turn that off.
Anything that makes your phone make sound from the rear speaker triggers AudioOut_2.
Ok I will try disabling touch sounds...but I have always had touch sounds on abd never had any issue, I dnt know what changed suddenly.
Thank you tho.
