So there is this problem with my HOX.
Every time my battery goes down below 20% my phone switches off itself if i use more than 2-3 apps simultaneously.
I am not able to use phone below 20% most of times as soon as i plug in, I can use it again :/ weird!
This has been occurring for a while a now.
I have tried flashing different roms but still the problem persists.
Is there an issue with my battery? Or is it something else?
Although the Gsam Battery Monitor shows thats battery is good.
Any thoughts?
Any help is much appreciated!

Don't know if this will help and may be unrelated, but is the battery charging ok? I have been working on a friends HOX which is having battery issues, in a similar problem it keeps shutting down before the battery runs out, and was seming to charge ok, but the battery drained quite quickly after charging. In the end I replaced the battery(as the old one wasn't holding a proper charge) with a new one which seemed to fix the problem and also seemed to charge fine for about a week and then started having charging/shutdown issues. I'm yet to have another look at it but have been trying to find out more about the problem, if it is the charging circuit it can aparently be re-calibrated by holding the vol up, vol down and power button down similtaneously for 2 minutes. Don't know of this will help, but it is the only thing I can come up with that may explain the problem.
Had this today when my phone died and while it was charging on 2% it turned off.
I think it's just the cpu pulling power the batter simply doesn't have though I've never had it on anything about 5%.

Hi guys, this morning my desire was vibrating like mad, it was plugged in charge overnight, the screen was off and it was constantly vibrating, so I took the battery out. When putting it back in the phone wouldn't turn on and when holding the power button constantly down it would vibrate again like mad :-$ any ideas?? Thanks
How often does it vibrate? Seven times? If yes, then your phone might be bricked.

Its a constant vibrate, I changed my battery and the phone switches on and works fine
Its just my other battery. Could this mean the battery got overcharged and is now damaged? Any tips?

Such information would have fitted perfectly in the initial post as well.. From OP there were no indication that your phone turned on at all.
But yes seems likely, and if it doesn't work then throw it out.
Funny enough i put that old battrery back in, and after a few presses of the power button, it switched on, i put it on charge, and currently it was showing 0% but charging, and its charging very slow now :-s could this mean something else? because the battery was on charge overnight. Would a battery calbiration sort this problem?
p.s the battery is only 2 months old, being a genuine htc innovation one, it shouldnt go that quick i assume.

Probably.. It most likely won't ruin you phone, so keep using it, if it still works.
ok that battery is not charging at all, stays at 0% while plugged in, and if i switch the phone off and let it charge, then after a few mins the fone starts constantly vibrating like mad, i went into recovery - advanced - wipe battery stats as well but its still doing it, should i assume it is the battery which is completely gone now?
With my 2nd battery its working fine as normal.
It must be the battery, time for the bin I think...

Last night i was using my phone right before going to bed. The battery was at about 18% or so left. I got up to get a glass of water then came back to plug the phone in to the outlet only to notice that the red led was not on. I pressed the power button and nothing would happen. The phone completely shut off without interaction. So I panicked a little and plugged to PC USB cable that was attached to my PC and nothing. wasn't detecting or anything. so I press and held the power button and plugged it in at the same time and it powered on again. Anyone know what could have happen?
Only time i faced this problem was when i tried to drain my battery completely. it wouldn't shut down on its own when it reached 0%, so i turned it off myself.. The next moment is wouldn't boot or charge also. Then i held the power button and it came back to life.. Don't know what the exact cause is though

Yea it kind of turned me off on the phone. But I still love it. anyone else have a similar issue like this? I'm hoping that it is the power management issue that some people are having as there is a quick fix with that. I was avoiding rooting or modding my phone, but I might just have to now.
i'm a noob so i don't know much about most of this, but this really sounds like the way my ipod functions if i let the battery "die." i can't imagine that any manufacturer making a phone with a non-removable battery doesn't have it set up to be rechargeable upon plug in.

Ye, furthermore i've read that this is cause but letting the battery ''die'' indeed, it takes time to charge it back up because when you let it die some kind of undervolting protecting is kicking in i guess and soon after it will start to charge
Hello,
I have a problem with this tablet , when i charge it to 100% and use it for like 5-10mins i'm suddenly at 1% battery. But i can still use youtube or other apps for 40mins + So i'm pretty sure the battery is at 95% or something.
Also when i charge and stop charging it can reset the whole thing and say that i have 2% battery.
I already tried to charge 100% > let it decharge 40-50% > power off 5houres > but didn't help..
Somebody said remove the battery for 5mins and problem is gone..
Anyone done this so far?
i'm on STOCK ROM , no root or what so ever.. NO battery save app or something like that.
Hi, I'm having the same issue but it's not as dire as yours. Since you're not rooted or anything, I strongly believe it's a hardware issue, try replacing your device cause it shouldn't drain that fast. I'm using nolekat rom and it takes me 10 hours to charge fully or more but half the time for it to be drained. I haven't tried removing my battery manually but you could try that too. Most likely it's a hardware issue since you didn't mess with it so much. Hope this helps.

Hi,
My tab is getting switched off frequently though the battery is fully charged, it suddenly dies down during any kind of work and im not having battery draining problem in my tab. But when I plug in a charger or battery bank then the tab works fine with out shut downing. Is this problem related to battery or hardwire or software. Kindly suggest if some one facing similar situation
Hi XDA
I have another problem, not too bad as yours, but very nagging and upsetting. What happens is that my tabet takes practically half a day for charging up the battery. It takes like 12 or more hours to charge up from 0 to 100%. I have tried unplugging the battery as you explained many times, also draining it, but nthing changes. And even worse it is when I'm just plugging my device after totally drained the battery, so when I try to boot my device it may boot up, when it does, after one minute it's turning off because of a suposedly 0% battery. Really I might get either that 0% or 1% battery, but after a minute when I just plug it in and boot up, it may turn off even though I turned off the sceen inmediately.
I think. the problen is maybe on the battery or in the USB port, I have tested many USB cables, many chargers, charging from my PC, but the problem keeps going an and on and on. I would like to know why this problems is happening, if I could fix it up by myself, for instance by replacing the battery or the USB port. This device was a gift, and since I got it I was dithering whether it was normal or not, but by asking soome mates and reading your post I realize that this is not normal.
Hope you read this quick reply. Many thanks for your advice and giving me advice on what and how I should do...

Changing the USB flex cable worked for me, try to buy one and watch some good tutorial about how to replace your tablet's components.

Hi
My phone has recently developed a fault. As mentioned above when I use the camera the phone shuts down as soon as I take a photo. If i do the same with the charging cable connected the camera works ok.
This happens even with the battery at a high level of charge. Has anyone else had this problem and if so how was it solved.
I should mention the phone is stock 4.4.4 htc sense 6.0 Software No 3.33.61.9. Api level 6.25
Thanks

I thought I would carry out a test to see if it is a battery problem so I fully charged the phone to 100% then just left it all day. Switched on and the screen saver on.
So 10am fully charged. 7:55 pm checked phone and it had shut down and would not turn back on. When I plugged in a charger the screen lit up with the charging battery symbol and showing 23%.
Imthink a phone should last more than 12 hours when not in use. Or am I wrong.

go into settings / apps / Camera and clear the data / cache
I had this problem with the OneX I tried what @CiSa suggested it worked for one picture then it did the same as you described I had to take it back to my network provider I bought it from. Hope clearing the data cache works for you of it dosnt you will have to send it back to where you got it from
I think this may be a general battery problem and not just related to the battery.
The phone is now just shutting down when the battery gets below 45%
I'm not sure if I have caused this because I put the phone on charge every night regardless of charge level and leave it on charge all night. .

That's how I charge my phone, every afternoon when i get home from work and again overnight when i go to bed ... never had a battery issue
Have you tried a hardware battery recalibration?
The battery calibration starts with the phone completely off. The steps are as follows: Charge the device for at least 10 minutes using the original charging cable in a wall outlet. With the device powered off while still plugged into the wall outlet, press and hold the volume up, volume down and power button for two full minutes. Use three fingers to hold these buttons and do not let go at any time. They will be held in at the same time for this to work. After two minutes, you can let go. At this point, the device should boot up and battery/charging logic will be re-calibrated.

I have also charged my phone to 100%, then booted to recovery and charged it to 100%, the shut the phone down completely and let it charge ti ll the green light comes on 100%. you'll be surprised how the 3 different modes read the battery differently
Also the only time I had the camera shut down the phone I just cleared the DATA it fixed it
Thanks for all your suggestions. I tried the hardware battery recalibration but the phone just kept switching on.
Anyway whilst trying to do this I noticed the screen has lifted about millimetre at the bottom right hand corner. Wild this cause the battery to discharge.
I am having the same issue with my HTC One m8 eye the phone just shutdown with I take a picture in lie light with the flash I tried restoring the phone but only works for a short time so old help
Hey everyone,
has anyone experienced something similar and was able to fix it?
My TA-1043 has previously turned off overnight, or simply didn't charge occasionally. This behavior was reported by others as well, and wasn't really that much of a problem for me.
However today not only did it turn off, it also does not turn on or accept a charge anymore at all. I tried several different cables and cleaned out the charging port, but it just will not charge at all from either a power bank or a wall plug.
I ordered a replacement charging board, but if that doesn't work and no one else has had this problem i'm gonna have to get a new phone i reckon... (warranty only covers one year and the place i got it from charged extra for extended warranty)
And yes i also tried holding the power button for 30 seconds, does nothing as expected...
So, has anyone had this problem and knows what causes it?
replaced the charging board and now it works again, let's see if that was the root cause... interestingly, the battery was at 50% charge when it started working again, so i actually believe it's something to do with the mainboard
It's a Software Problem
The same thing happened to my phone recently. What I did was to to click on the power, volume up, and volume down for 40 seconds. It was one of the longest 40 seconds in my life. It turned on and the battery was at 49%. It worked fine after that. I don't know why it happened but the problem was a software one not hardware even though it didn't want to charge anywhere and was always seemingly off.
