[Q] [Issue] During phone calls. Battery precent and status - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have a issue on my Epic 4G with Syndicate 1.0.2.
During phone calls. calling or receiving a call, the person on other side cannot hear me. (sometimes can but its very choppy and low)
But when I plug my headset into the headphone jack everything works fine. (using the headset)
^^^ Above Issue Fixed with a Re-Flash. ^^^^
I had 48% battery and did a reboot and for over 2 hours it was showing "charge icon" on battery, camera said "low Battery." and i used the phone for well over 40mins straight during this time. A battery widget showed it was at 5% battery.. bug? any help? Any resolve?

A bad flash maybe...after I flashed back from CWM7 back to Bonsai 3.1 I barely get texts while on the phone...

Plan to do a flash later today, will post an update.
(First time I flashed rom I did as directed, wipe 5x then flash)

[Q] Help with Radio cutting out in phone call

Hi. I recently (like 3 days ago) manually updated t0 4.0.4 on my verizon Galaxy Nexus (I had heard that it fixed teh issue with the radio where the mic cuts out on phone calls randomly) I also decided at that time to change over and try the AOKP rom (installed build 38) and teh Franco kernal Since then I have had two issues and IM just wondering if anyone has any advice/suggestions etc for me.
Issue 1. The radio issue is not fixed (actually my signal strength inn my home is down a bar annoyingly) and during phone calls relatively frequently people stop being able to hear me. It has always done this and I have waited impatiently for 4.0.4 because it was supposed to fix this I thought but it hasnt.
Issue 2. My battery life has gone to crap since I made these changes if I have my phone plugged into a USB port for charging and do thinfgs on my phone..It will drain the battery dry in about 3 hours (for example if I turn on I heart radio or Tune IN and listen to streaming content for 3 hours while my phone is plugged into my usb port on my computer...within 3 hours me (extended) battery will be dry as bones (a non extended battery last maybe 2 hour) Ming you it will keep playing because it plugged in..buyt it will power off the minute I unplug it. I did NOT have this battery issue prior to upgrading to 4.0.4 or loading in AOKP.

Calls go straight to voice mail if phone is idle - ICS and Jellybean ROM

Does anyone have this issue at random times when the phone is idle? Sometimes calls and sms are not recieved when the phone is idle. The calls are sent to my google voice and sms spams like crazy when I turn on the screen. This has happened with ICS rom and the Pacman rom from the jellybean.
I've had this issue as well. I think it's a pecular interaction between AT&T towers (I'm on an AT&T MVNO) and Google Voice because it happened for me on official GB too.
I'm on tmobile. Do you think its the google voice software causing this? I didn't have issues when I was on gingerbread.
I also notice how I can tell if the phone went into idle where it rejects all calls and sms. If I turn on the screen, the time will move really quickly. The minute will move really fast till it catches up to the current time.
Today I will be testing the [ROM] [ICS] LiteROM 0.9.0 to see if it also has the same effect. Thegreatergood said he'll implement a fix where the CPU speed is upped a little so the phone doesnt idle too much. I'll let you guys know if the issue is still there.
The ROM [ICS] LiteROM 0.9.0 has the same issue.
So try some JB Roms. I'm running one now - looks promising :good:

I have the same 'No response to a call' issue after flashing AT&T UCLJ3 rooted on a Rogers i927R Glide.
Essentially, after the Glide has been idle for a while, not sure how long, at least 30 mins I think,
there is no response from the Glide when calling it, and it goes to voice mail, but not straight away though.
I can hear a ringing tone from the phone I'm calling from, but the Glide just sits there in sleep mode.
Try several calls but the Glide does not wake up.
Haven't tried sending it an SMS when this has happens though.
If I then wake up the Glide manually, and then put it into standby again and call it, it responds as normal and starts ringing.
The thing is, it doesn't happen every time, sometimes the phone could be idle for 2 hours and still respond to a call, other times it doesn't after say 30mins on standby.
Hard to troubleshoot as its so intermittent.
This did not seem to happen on stock Rogers GB.

What does everyone have this settings on:
WiFi advanced option "Keep Wi-Fi on during sleep" ?
I always had mine set to: "Always" so that when I'm at home or at work I'm constantly connected to a Wi-Fi access point.
I've changed this to "Only when plugged in" so that it will disconnect from Wi-Fi when going to sleep off charge, which I think will use more data and more battery but will see if this makes a difference receiving calls.
One thing I noticed is that when the phone is on charge, it always responds to a call.

I've been running this app for a few days now and have not had any instance of the phone not coming out of sleep to receive a call.

Choose PARTIAL_WAKE_LOCK in the config.
BUMP ! I have this problem also on ORANGE in Romania Europe. I tryed with many custom roms, including RootBox, AOKP, Stock, And LITERom 0.9 baseband UCLJ9 and litekernel 1.2.2. The fix with wakelock seems to work but it's battery hungry (10%) two hours.
I heard that someone from S3 have the same problem and seems related on how the phone switch to different Version of radio (SHPDA UMTS etc) when recieving a call.
Is your phone set to forward to voicemail/GV? See here for how to find the setting.

[Q] PLEASE HELP! Hot Phone and No signal Dead Battery

The phone randomly gets warm by the back top right (when looking at back of the phone below headphone jack) The phone DATA doesnt show, and no calls receives or sends. And battery rapidly drains when this happens, I mean within 30 minutes it goes from 60% to 0%.
I have to keep feeling the top back of the phone to see if it is warm, if so, I know I will miss calls, I reboot.
KITKAT 4.4.2 original rom.
Running Net10 (ATT) sim card on Tmobile device.
Thanks in advance

Some application is running a background process that is probably waiting in a tight loop and not sleeping for short intervals as it should. Orbot does this for me so I have to kill its background processes after using Orbot. Unfortunately the rapid drain and excessive heat confuse the charger so that it does not charge, and I need to reboot to get it working again.
You might have to uninstall applications one at a time to find the culprit.

Battery Level stuck @80%?

I can not seem to clear my Issue of the battery always showing 80%.
I have reflashed back to Stock, but still the same problem.
Even when I had TWRP recovery installed it showed as 80%.
Any ideas how to fix this please?
you have infinite battery, be happy!
I wish
Fixed it by flashing Open EU H815.kdz file once again and now the battery use is showing correctly.
Edit: The problem is back again!!!!
After several hours when it seemed okay, I put the phone back on charge and Bingo.
Stuck back at 80% again, even on my other original LG Battery, and to top it all i have a stuck LED on faint green.
WTF???
I had the same problem before, how many apps do you have installed? Does it charge in safe mode? If not, does it charge to 100% when the phone is powered off?
Tried Safe Mode and the same problem persists.
The battery seems to charge fully but the OS is not showing it correctly
Hmm, in my case, it was always stuck at 74%/75% and it doesn't charge more regardless what the indicator says. What about if you powered off the phone and charge, does it actually go past 80% and to 100%? I fixed my problem as I had 739 apps installed incuding system apps so I greenified everything except for those I needed and that fixed the problem, not only am I getting more than 2 hours of battery life regardless if the screen was on or not, it's now 12 hours or so of battery life with a few hours of screen time but the charging is fixed. Before I used to also have problems installing in Google Play Store, it would actually sit there doing nothing after the download and install when it feels like it even after a hour or it can install fast.
Tried charging while turned off and still gives the same reading.
Last night I reset the phone and left the battery out for 30 mins before re-inserting and setting up the phone once again.
So far it seems to be fixed and showing correct battery %.

Sure, see attached.... Please note that I am including the system apps in the app count as this is what's reported by Titanium Backup *root. I was wrong, I seem to still be getting the stuck battery percentage indicator which can happen at 73/74% or even 97%.
It seems the stuck battery charging % problem came back when I changed the brightness to 100% Auto but went away when I changed it to 0% Auto. I had the problem at 38% Auto too.
Is there any workaround? I just flashed my LG G4 from 10a to 10e and Rooted it. And It happened exact the same.
After a reboot I didn't have Service IMEI Null . This happened twice in a row, after that it magically resolved and now I have Service and IMEI... But after some reboots I started noticing that LED green turned on and the 80% Stuck Battery....
Im experiencing the same issue battery stuck at 80% and green led stuck on. Issue went away however battery life was appallingly bad, went from 1.5 days battery life to struggling to last a day. Battery stuck at 80% has come back today.
I have tried factory reset, upgrading from 10c to 10e.
i'm having the same problem: battery level stuck at 80%, network set to 3G but not actually connecting, and the inability to charge the battery when it is in the phone - even though it says "charging" the percentage kept dropping (tried different chargers, cables, batteries, and even wireless charger - i can only charge using a separate charger). the battery not charging started about a week ago. the 80%/3G issue started this morning.
no root or any other mods, very few apps installed. i've had the phone about 6 months. verizon. 13B. 5.1.
i did wake up the other day to a frozen "firmware update" screen, but it has not come back, and i've checked for updates (to 6.0 maybe) with no success. this "firmware" screen was after the battery stopped charging, but before the 80% problem. i had to pull the battery after it sat there a few hours (it said "don't disconnect USB" even though USB was never connected, and there was a progress bar at 0%).
UPDATE: this thing may be falling apart in front of my eyes. now my service is disabled and I have no network connection showing up at all.

Try taking the SD card out, if that doesn't work take the sim card out and then back in. That normally gets the service working again for me.
I had this same issue and sent it back to the supplier, they than forwarded it onto LG who couldn't find any issue with it. Im now waiting for it to be sent back to me.
Are you using a 3rd party (non-OEM) battery by any chance? I ask because I had the same issue occasionally when using a non-LG battery. It would fix itself after a few reboots or by installing the LG battery that came with the phone. I truly believe based on my experience, and others (there is another thread related to this exact problem) that the issue is purely battery related. Even the service disabled symptom.

I don't have a 3rd party battery so I don't think that's my issue
OEM battery for me. I did remove SD card, and reseated the SIM: no help.
This is my current work around: Turn off phone. Charge battery to 100% with phone off (overnight). Turn phone on.
It seems to charge fine (and have accurate %) when the phone is off. Then it powers up with accurate battery percentage and 4G coverage. Note, I've only tried this twice, but it worked both times.
I'm having the same issue. Battery stuck at 80% and green constant notification light. Not rooted BTW.
I assume LG will investigate the issue while I am stuck with no phone for weeks.
I should have never bought a non nexus phone...

Call audio and Battery drain

Hi, I'm using a G930F and Recently Iv'e switched to Linage OS from the previous rom which was Nyssa Nexus.
So i Performed a COMPLETE wipe on TWRP (including system) and flashed the LOS with a Pico GApps package.
The thing is when i call someone or answering an incoming call i can hear them but they cant hear me. it happens alot. I can put them on speaker but it solves nothing...
The second thing is the Battery........ after one year with the previous custom rom that the battery would last for a WHOLE day without charging, it just drains at mid day without even using it too much, something like one percent per minute.
Any Golden ideas?
Bump
Anyways it appears that do not disturb turns on automatically when I start a call.. as for the battery still no clue.
