My niece has a Note 2 that had been giving her grief ever since she updated to kit Kat. She said that it will not charge her phone all of the way not unless she turns the phone off first. She didn't have any problems with it on 4.3. Is there a way to downgrade it back to 4.3? This phone is stock and not rooted.

Have you attempted a factory reset? That will probably help.
No, I'm sure she hasn't. She just took the OTA and went with it. I'll have her try that.

I had her factory reset it and she said that the battery drains quicker. I told her to give it a day or so to see if it improves. She said it did charge all the way though.

That's good to know. Tell her to let it charge over night with the phone off(or on airplane mode) then let it completely drain without using it(if possible) to get more accurate battery levels.
can not turn off the phone while it is charging
ROM [4.4.2] DN3 V5(Ditto Note 3) ROM for SGH-i317 works great but I can not turn off the phone while it is charging. Thanks in advance.

OH! I know this one! That's a boot loader issue. The only way to charge a powered-off i317 running Android 4.4 is by running the 4.4 boot loader. So your choices are: A) install the 4.4 boot loader B) Live with it. I'd live with it. I'm still on the original 4.1 bootloader. If you need your phone to charge faster, just put it in airplane mode.
Thanks

I would just try a factory reset and c if that helps
my phone is stuck in a dead state, i upgraded bootloader to NE5 and it says it charging but always stays in a 0% state, if i use my wifes s3 battery it boots up fine and even has charging led but never will boot from my battery and even if it does it always shuts right off cause my battery wont hold a charge.

Hi guys,
My gio is losing battery at incredible speed - 5% every few seconds, and it's not even hot.
Whatever the rom, the kernel I put on it it's the same. I have tried to discharge-wipe battery-full charge a thousand times. I'd have thought the calibration was faulty here but I have tried Battery Calibration with no result.
Something weird is that on Battery Calibration it says it's at 4mV. Shouldn't it be more ?
It always stays at 4mV.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks...
Turn off mobile data when you're not using it, saves lots of battery

It's not about mobile data or wifi or anything, it's just unnatural to lose that much battery ! It's not even heating.
Maybe your battery died?

Yeah that's my last resort but I would prefer to fix it myself, this will take ages =/
By the way is there a flash counter on this device ? If I just flash a stock rom I'm good to go ?
at me its just when i use it , scroll for music/youtube / browser/msn , it goes down very fast , like 4-5% in 1-2 min , but if i keep the screen off and i dont use mobile data network/wifi/BT i can listen music for over 10 hours with no stop (I tested it) it something with battery or what ?

Gio doesnt have a flash counter, just make sure its kn s stock rom wich has been given out by samsung, there are also unnoficial roms, leaked maybe, these arent given by kies but are on sammobile

discharging at that rate without any heat means a single thing: battery is of very low capacity.
My phone last usually 3-4 days on a charge, but without any use it will last 10-13 days. Using camera of any stressful game will discharge the battery 5-10%/minute, but in the same time phone gets hot.
what's about cpu usage, do you checking how many process was running?
No flash counter?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!?!?!
The heck that means I can always get warranty if something happens mwhahaha. Lol I'm a loser sorry. But that's actually awesome. Mine would be at like 50 if it had one.

True, just make sure that you flash a stock rom when going to service center, and no custom recovery, kernel, root etc, these all wipe when flashing a stock rom

My wife's Gio has the same problem (fast power drops, 3-4mv,...).

don't use your phone
and set clock speed low, maximum 600 min 100 or something, maybe even lower..
Have you got the official gio firmware? if not try to install it & do full battery stats/data wipe...maybe the problem can be a bug in your current ROM.
Ok so I have my galaxy s3 att version rooted with faux's kernel on the stock rom. I havent received any updates since the original purchase and my battery life is suffering bad due to the cell standby problem (don't know how common it is) and is taking up ALOT of battery during the day. I need to get my phone up to the latest update so I can resolve this annoying problem. I leave it on standby doing absolutely nothing at all for 7 hours everyday and is always at %40 left starting off with %100. I dont know the process I need to do to update my phone to the latest and not lose all of my stuff and also be able to have it rooted on the latest update. Also a noob question but does it matter what version your on as far as how you root it? I would assume so but I dont know, and to clarify I mean like will only certain methods work on certain firmware versions?
I have a few questions for you? Are using the most up to date faux kernel?
What do you mean by leaving your phone on standby? Screen off and leaving it alone or something else.
Try something for me. Is your phone deep sleeping? Download an app called cpu spy and see if your getting deep sleep? Then report back.

Ok I'm pretty sure my kernel is latest to day. By standby I mean it's on but I don't use it like you first mentioned and the screen is off and I don't do anything with it ever day for around 7 hours. I just downloaded the cpu spy and it says I am not getting deep sleep at all!
For the other post I'm gonna download that and flash it and see if it helps

I downloaded and flashed that at stock update but there is only one problem. All my apps that require root are saying I don't have root access. I dot know what to do but that's the only problem and I need to know if I need to root it again and if so would it be the same method I did on the last firmware version I was on. And also just for more Info I still have cwm recovery too.

Flash the attached file in this post in CWM. This is the method I used when I first tested the H1 leak. You'll have your root access again once you reboot after flashing.

I have an s3, my brother has an s3. Same exact phone. I hadn't updated mine at all, my brothers was up to date. We both go to school and font ever use it because we obviously aren't allowed to and at the end of the day I always have around %40 and he has about %75-80. Please explain to me when it says that, and under battery usage that cell standby used some %80 of my battery drainage that wasn't a cell standby issue.
Different batteries or more likely you have an ap running or poor signal or different settings than him. I have about 5 batteries all stock and some last better than others

I'm worried it might be SDS but I don't want to take battery out and reboot it as I'm scared it could be? it wouldn't be automatic updates? They don't take that long do they??

An update shouldn't take this long right? It's been 15minutes like this. I haven't flashed anything on the device only run Expynos abuse to root it and put Xposed framework for multi app but that's it. Nothing else. Guess it softbricked itself somehow wtf?

I don't know what happened there but 15 minutes is a lot of time. You'll probably need to remove your battery or hold power button until it reboots.
If it still gets stuck on samsung logo you'll probably need to wipe

That's what I was thinking hmm.
This happened yesterday, I had the usual random freeze on my phone. Thought I just had to wait for it to restart, but this time it didn't. So I had to pull the battery out, and power it on from there.
Only, it didn't want to. No matter how long I press the power button, no response. I can't get into recovery or download mode. I have a spare stock battery and it won't power up with that too. The phone does however, heat up when the battery is inside. I tried leaving it without the battery overnight and then placing the battery back, but still no luck.
My phone is rooted, running AOSPAL ParanoidAndroid (4.3), with fancy kernel.
I hope someone can help me, and I hope my phone isn't bricked.
That happened to me once and yes, the phone was briked...
Just bricked randomly? No real cause?

Generally speaking if the device doesn't even power up, then yes its bricked. sorry to tell you my friend. The main part of the device that powers up initially is the main bootloader in the logic board, so what has happened most likely is it just failed. kinda of like the bios on a pc. if the bios fails, then the computer can no longer be told to turn on.

With me it's exactly the same thing!
I tried the same steps for you: With 50%, the phone hangs up.
What if I restart it with 70% it back to 20%.
I suspect we have problem with the battery level sensor.
I bought another phone.
