Take out your battery, does it look "bloated", "fat"? Can you spin it like a bottle?

Ah, gotcha. I have no idea then, lol. Sorry.

Looks like you flasher a no data one click. What was it running before. Also what browser?
sent from my BAD A$$ Epic touch

OP, I've been having the same problem. My phone will randomly shut down usually while web browsing (Dolphin HD) usually on a mobile network connection (3G or 4G). How it normally goes is I will be browsing and then the phone will shut down to a blank screen, no shutdown animation, like somebody pulled the battery. When I re-boot the phone will usually do a hard shutdown again shortly after booting up (15-30 seconds). The battery level will be different upon re-boot (eg. 95% -> 40% -> 1% -> 30%). Sometimes the screen will briefly flash a low battery warning (1 second or so) before doing a hard shutdown.
My phone is 1 year old, not rooted, Android 4.0.4, Baseband S710.10 S.FI27.
Recently took the phone to a Sprint service location they could not replicate the problem, but tested the battery and did a factory reset. The problem persists after the factory reset.
Attached are screenshots of my battery graph following a series of re-boots.

Bump!! I'm sorry, but I'm having this issue too. My phone is a year old and is pretty much doing the same thing. Tried different ROMs. I'm running the Full Restore FI03 Rooted ROM right now and still doing this. My issue is more crucial. My phone doesn't sleep well, dies in like 6 hours max.
It will randomly force shutdown and won't turn on. It will try and reboot, the screen will flicker and just shut off. The only way I can get the phone to turn back on is by plugging it into a charger.
Luckily I have a portable charger. I wonder if this is a battery issue. Anybody tried using a different battery.

My wife had similar symptoms... flickering screen and shuts down. no animation or warning.. ahd to plug it in to boot the phone again... battery would show 90%, then 15% after a reboot... her battery only lasts half the day, ect.... turns out it was her battery going bad. I bought her Anker batteries on amazon (2 batteries plus charger $18) and it hasn't happened ever since. Its been over a week now since she's been on the new battery.
trust me, just get a new battery, you'll enjoy the better battery life too. its typical to swap the batteries every 8-10 months.

GT-N7105T - First Full Charge

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to throw something out there...
Just got my shiny new Note 2, and its rad. But, just wanted a second opinion.
I'm aware that generally a Li-ion battery needs to be "conditioned" but usually you get a "fair" idea of battery life within a day or two. Now, had it for a day, on the day I got it, tried my multimedia dock for like 15 minutes...freaked out because I forgot it charges it too. Took it off...flattened the phone till it turned off and charged it, while off for 8 hours over night.
First day has been fairly standard really...much the same as my Galaxy Nexus. Currently on 2 hrs screen time, 36 mins of calls and I'm already down to 45%???
Is this "normal"??
I'm just a little concerned that I may have a crappy battery. I feel a bit "to soon to judge" so I might see after a week. Just wanted to know if everyone else had the same sort of experience.
Thanks in advance.

AFAIK the battery needs a few charging cycles to get it's full capacity. So it will become better.
Have you set the slider for auto brightness to minimum?
That made the greatest power boost for my Note 2.
If the slider isn't at minimum, your values look normal to me.
If it is, you should have more battery left. But here I have to refer to my first sentence.

Drained 55% in 2 hours of screen time and 36 minutes seems weird but it's too soon to judge. Get it down to 1% and fully charge your battery to the max with your phone off and see if it works wonder the next day. Do let us know the outcome.

Thanks guys. I definitely will.
I just thought me fully draining it yesterday would have made today pretty good. Your right though... I feel I'm judging a little too quickly. I just thought I'd get a surprise straight away with this phone as I know it's got unreal battery life.
What were your first days like?
Edit - My screen has been on auto all day too... Hrmmm, starting to worry... Haha. Luckily I haven't rooted yet.

Even if it is on auto, you can calibrate the brightness with the slider in the notifications.
For me it's bright enough if it is at min. And it saves you loads of battery.

Update.
Did a full charge from 10% last night... While on though, does that make a huge difference?
Did this code today *#0028# and like a battery stats reset tool comes up. After hitting quick restart it's drained allot slower. Maybe it didn't have that done out of the factory. Still feel I have a crappy battery though... It's only been 2 charges. Going to do 1% then charge off tonight. See how we go...
Anyone know what the code tool is actually for?
Cheers.

I got a 4 day juice after charging it for the first time with screen on for 4+ hours. Still getting the same or better at times. One thing i have noticed is that leaving the phone connected to the charger for another 20 mins or so even when its fully charged gives it a push in the right direction. U can try that out if u want.
Following are my 1st charge stats

My battery is also doing this but then i question which is the true percentage...so then i quickly take the charger out and its just drops in a minute so i know if it thinks its dead its dead.
As for calibration you will find a ton of useful info here : http://www.androidpit.com/how-to-calibrate-the-battery-on-your-android-device

I would hope so as my device is 3 month old and im guessing ur device isnt that old...it would be horrible if batterys were going wrong that fast...no i would say its got something to do with the device judging the level incorrectly fo whatever reason and your idea of calibration is the right direction....i think im going to try as couple of suggestions in that link myself tbh.....if ur battery was to be lasting like an hour though then i would say somethings not quite right.

I just got in on monday this week, the battery usually last for about a day with 3-4 hours of screen on time with reading and web browsing, with a bit of gaming which seems to kill it pretty fast. I am currently let it charge overnight and the do a full charge cycle to see what will happen. Thanks for your help :good:

My battery jumped when I was playing clash of clans when my battery was at 10%. It went from 10% to 3%. So then I rebooted and it went back up to 5%. So when my battery was almost dead.. I quickly resetted the fuel gauge in synapse.. And waited a few minutes then it died. Then I plugged it into the charger (did not touch it) till it reached 100%. Seems to be fixed now I hope.

The battery seems not to handle gaming very well i think, those drop are from playing brave frontier am still currently sitting at 38%

I bought this tablet 3-4 days ago. I installed this warship game. I also noticed that it literaly jumps from 30% to 3% in just 5 minutes or less. But my battery charges very quick,which is good on the other hand. What is going on whit this tablets battery? My tablet is still stock,not rooted and bla bla... LTE version offcourse. I'm not sure,but i think it started draining the vattery as soon as i insrted the memory card.

That's the problem I had on me T700, thank God I don't have this issue on the T807.
Funny thing, when the T700 battery died, I'd turn it on after 3 min and would show battery at 23% again and I was able to use it for another 15 min or so

I also had the battery problem,too.
After three days suffering by test all the method I Google from internet, I return my T705y to samsung,and they replace the board and battery.
Now everything's fine, try it,just return tabs to samsung.

tab s 8.4 lte battery only shows 2100 mah fully charged
I purchased a new oem battery (4900 mah) and put that in and it is still showing capacity for the battery as 2100 mah...have not a clue what is wrong?

I have the same problem, and im on a custom ROM! So annoying

Yea me too. I guess it's my fault or something like this. Sometimes phone can handle 4%, sometimes it'll dead at 11% and so on.

The battery meter isn't that accurate, its just an estimation based on the battery voltage versus how you use your phone (and the resulting "typical" battery drain). You shouldn't expect it to be accurate to the being within the 1-2 (or even 5) percent range. Shutting off at 4 to 11% is not unusual, and not surprising.
You shouldn't be draining your battery down that low on a regular basis. Its bad for long term battery life. Good rule of thumb for Li ion batteries is short and frequent charge cycles.
However, optimizing apps and/or google process stopped after a shutdown (due to low battery) is not normal. That's a different matter.

I have this problem, plus some of my settings get reset such as my wallpaper, ringtone, notification tone, boomsound (off to on), screen timeout, screen brightness, whatsapp (keeps asking me to chose my backup options and no messages come through until then). This has never happened before and I'm not sure why it's only happening now. I'm not purposely trying to drain the battery or anything, it's just that sometimes on the road I am unable to charge it and it'll just die out midway when previously, that extra 15% could've lasted me for another 30 minutes, just enough for me to reach my destination.

The same problem.. But the bigger problem for me, it's reseting my settings..

It is a terrible problem , I return to KitKat and my battery reaches 1% , and so normal ... I'll make a test with lollipop .

Yes, same problem! So glad someone made a thread for it. It's frustrating and happens literally every time.
Experienced on both the stock and a custom rom. Any one knows any fixes? Is it because of the 'battery life reduces over time' thing? My phone is 2 years old now

That seems to be a problem with all htc ones (m7, m8, m9) as they get older, dont worry its normal :laugh:

ive been experiencing this for a while, clear dalvik cache and let android do the whole rebuilding thing at the start and you should be fine...as for the battery fix ive just learnt to live with it, 15% is the new 2%!!!

I'm on this problem since a lot of time, as i was one of the first in the community to report it.
Seems like an end-of-life issue for one m8 and htc one phones line.
In my case i had a camera and charge board issue too, so in rma htc changed them, and now the phone is charging and quick-charging like it must have to. But i have to be careful when near 15% of battery because using camera, flashlight or others power-expensive features instantly turns the phone off, causing a database mismatch on the next boot (for marshmallow) and consequently the loss of data.
If the instant-poweroff occurs during boot, there is a massive loss of data and a lot of force closes on the next boot.
Nothing to do here i think, sadly.

In kitkat and lollipop battery reach at 1% ...

I have a fix for this as it happened to me and I tried a battery calibration app from the app store... I thought what your thinking now but after finding bad sectors and "repairing" it did actually work

solve the problem of battery and loss of settings , change the battery of my htc, now everything is fine , 3 days that the battery is discharged properly , I hope this information will help someone.

thats kinda "cool" to see many people have same problem as i do. atleast it wont run u crazy as before
1. sometimes phone dies when battery is 15%, and sometimes it dies when around 4% 2% or even 1%
2.resetting settings after phone dies!
so is the solution, to change battery? any better way that doesnt need to spend money?

Yes I've done this a couple of weeks back. The replacement is actually less hard as it seems.
But finding an original replacement battery seems to be pretty hard - Even though the replacement I bought is HTC branded and looks genuine, I feel like it's actually draining a little faster than my old original. 12€ Ebay had too good to be true.
However the instant-shutoffs are now a thing of the past along with the database corruption, so I'm going to have to live with a little less battery life.
Or does anyone know of a provider for genuine batteries?

Horrible Battery Life on Moto 360(1st Gen)

Hello,
I own a moto 360(2014) and I am barely able to get more than 6 hours of battery life.
Things I have tried to do :
Factory Resetting
Paring to different phones with different android versions
Using it just as a watch without bluetooth and Wifi

Did this just start for you?
I've owned my watch for years, and last week suddenly started having issues. I can't help but wonder if there was a software change that is causing excessive drain.

Not really no.
I've not got any software update over a year I think.
The watch was off for a while, about a month.
But since then it's got really bad.
I've faced similar issues with android phones, where wiping the battery stats makes the battery life as good as stock. If there is a way to achieve this it would be the ideal solution.

Did you go to the service centre?
or purchased the battery online and fitted it from outside?
if you did purchase online a link would be helpful

I did get this battery some time ago on ebay. Im in uk. It wasnt genuine battery but VHBW brand which for my experience is reliable.
Replaced it by myself. There is some guide on the web for doing it. Hardest thing is to get back cover without breaking it. I actually broken my one being carefull, its so fragile.

after another phone side android wear update my battery life is back to normal. Off the charger at 7 AM, and at 7 PM I still have 40% left in the tank.

yes, now on 2.7.0.177669439

I've had these issues for about a year now. No updates have made a difference for me. It's not that my battery depletes quickly though, it's that the watch powers off with plenty of battery left and doesn't come back on until charged, usually at the 50-60% mark.
It's nearly 2pm here, been off the charger since maybe 8am, still at 69% battery but I bet it'll be gone in an hour or so.
Is it possible to get a custom ROM for these in case it's a software issue?
UPDATE: couple of minutes later, at 67% it has died.....

ht tps://ww w.youtu be.com/watch?v=wl61mDJlu9E
use this guide! Its so easy to replace the battery!

I also replaced my battery but I used this guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1as_h5jnBM he explains very well and some steps explained poorly in the ifixit guide are shown here detailed. The hardest part is removing the backcover without cracking it. I failed and cracked mine but battery is perfectly fine now, for the cracked backcover there are some replacements for about 20€. However I own a 3D printer and will print me a new backcover by myself, I hope it will be fine, i will provide some pictures at the end of the week just in case someone is interested

Than try to replace it, if it's already dead you have nothing to lose except the 9€ you have to invest in a new battery
