[Q] Battery Drain - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Okay. i have Calk's EL13 v2.5 rom and i have the Venum black and white minimal theme on it. Im losing 1% of battery every 2-4 mins. is there anything i can do to fix this? or is it normal?

You might want to try and calibrate the battery. There are several ways of doing this.
Since you're rooted, you can charge the phone to 100% and then boot into CWM recovery and wipe battery stats. Reboot your phone and use it normally and drain the battery all the way down until it powers off by itself. Then charge again to 100% and that should complete the calibration.
Alternate method is download Battery Calibration app in the market and follow the instructions on there. That will keep you from having to boot into CWM to wipe battery stats.
Hope that helps you.

Any difference b/w calibrating via CWM or Batter Calibration app?

Hi, I've been experiencing the same thing with the battery. Is there any difference between wiping battery stats in CWM and using the Battery Calibration app? Is one better than the other? Is there any advantage to using one method as opposed to the other? Thanks, much appreciated.

Battery stats dont reset

Hey guys my phone doesn't reset the battery stats even after 100% battery life. Is there a way to manually wipe battery stats?
My phone is NOT rooted.
Any help would be nice
from what i heard if you wanna to do it manually you gotta to enter recovery mode
but that's harder if you want to erase the old battery stat just calibrate the battery using apps from market titled "battery calibration"
that's easier but you gotta have root access before then
hope that helps,..

LED dont blink while charging

Hey after i flashed the ROM all was fine.
And since i flash a multi dpi playstore the led wont blink.
But it´s chargin (only to 99%).
Can "Wipe battery stats" solve my problem?
I dont try it yet because i have TWRP. But when this solves my problem, i flash CWM
Charging to 100% wipes the battery stats, doing it manually is pointless and doesn't acheive anything. The stats are only used to track which apps have been using battery.

[Q][Urgent Please] LU 6200 Battery Discharging and Reboots

Hello
I have a question if anyone can help me what the problem is with my LG LU6200 handset
On the stock Rom once set is operational it runs smoothly charge and discharge as regular but after a week it automatically reboot and after reboot it not start and continuously rebooting saying use genuine battery. I remove the battery plugin the charger into the handset and put the battery after a minute it start in the charging mode showing the battery charging in off mode then I turn on the phone and it start working as normal until it reboot automatically or I turn off.
I use the custom rom for testing in the custom rom it run as normal but once I reboot the phone or turn off and turn on again it not reboot but start draining the battery even with charger plugged in the battery keep on discharging instead of charging and it come back to normal with same process by removing the battery plugin charger then insert the battery after a minute on the start of charging turn on the phone now it charging is increasing while charger is plugged in.
Now please someone help me what is the problem? ROM or the battery replacement or the phone become faulty ( That is unlikely because phone work as normal for weeks even if I not restart it or it automatically reboot)
Also when it happen my phone date go back to the last time it was booting in normal working state

I not tried the format battery state through recovery but I did try it by deleting the batterystat.bin from the system and reboot the phone so that the battery index is fresh and it not helped phone start the abnormal behaviour after any reboot. Format battery state in the recovery do the same thing I suppose deleting the batterystat.bin file from system but I try to do that with the recovery now as well
.Try to discharge the battery completely,play with game or video until your phone die then charge it until it completely full at 100% then leave it for a hour.Then test the battery life

Thanks, I already drained the battery and charged it back full many many times but battery life is not the problem my battery run 24 hours approx with medium use some calls couple of sms, facebook, Whatsapp and Wifi is on 24/7 and connected usually.
I tried the battery stats reset from the the recovery mentioned by abuulala there is some improvement now it is not rebooting after power up and charging as normal. Thanks abuulala for the tip, but still have the random shutdown and start again automatically sometime that stop only by removing the battery and inserting it again.

i think u should also try to to wipe 4 that is dalvik cache, cache and data reset and also in advance system format, than instal rom again, it might help seems like a rom problem. try sphinx or flex roms, these are stable without random reboots and i m glad that my advice helped u, im total newbie.

I did all those and currently using the Sphinx 4.1 rom posted by AMACreative working very good battery discharging problem is solved but this rom also force shutdown and keep on rebooting one time it happen that I am not sure why. my guess is when the ram get used alot with many apps running it shutdown by force but I am not sure yet it is sw creating the problem or hardware however after the wipes and coming to custom rom discharging problem while charger is plugged in is solved

TWRP new layout battery is too low to flash

hi,
I thought my battery is start to die. I stuck in TWRP new layout. Just finished wiping all data, and need to flashing.
But drastically the battery is dropping out. Let me stuck at bootloader. I cant go for flashing due to the battery is too low to flash.
In searching button had found many workaround to fix this issue. I have no idea. What I need to do now is to charge my HOX for flashing.
Question is
Did my workaround below is correct?
Go to fastboot menu. Power down option. Plugged in wall socket for charging. There red led with battery lightning in the screen.
Will this solve my problem. How many hour to get back my 100% full for flashing?
thank you
solved

After stumbling and digging via search button
If you stuck in fastboot with low battery to flash. Just flash an original stock recovery.
Than via fastboot,power down let your HOX charge with wall charger. This give you 100% full charges.
After that you can flash again any custom recovery you need. This is fast and reliable than battery script which take forever. This is life saver. Credit to dortok.

Fuel Gauge SoC reset

Has anyone tried resetting the fuel gauge on the pixel 3 XL (crosshatch)? If yes, where can I find it in the system folders? My battery percentage is stuck at 77% irrespective of the actual battery charge percentage. So I think resetting the fuel gauge might help me get the actual battery percentage back.
Any thoughts on this matter are welcome. I have tried everything else like resetting the phone, mocking battery percentage and then resetting, etc.
If your phone is rooted then go to the recovery and reset battery stats. If not rooted then reflash the OS through flash.google.com

Thanks for your reply. Is there a way to do the battery stats reset without wiping all my data? The device isn't rooted or bootloader unlocked.
[/EDIT] Well I tried that. Still haven't fixed the issue. Maybe it is a hardware issue?
