I get the same thing I have 2 different batteries but NOTHING!!
I Read somewhere its my dash!!!! not the battery how long have you had your dash!?
Had the same problem after 7 months and I called Tmobile and they replaced the phone and battery.
mine did the same thing...battery fixed the issue..then after 4 months it started again...if i would do just about anything it would shut off...so i replaced it with a different phone...i couldnt stand that **** anymore...so now the dash will be a dust collector with the other old phones...

Yeah Im trying that now I have reduce it to 170 MHz and 192 MHz it looks ok now. It seems to turn off when I use the internet wifi or something that uses ALOT ! of CPU mem or speeds it up hahahaha this Pice of crap Sucks does anyone know any solutions beside getting ride of this crap that its drving me CRAZY.....
i tried everything...as in the previous post, it will idle fine, but as soon as something processor intensive runs, the phone dies...
having to use it while plugged in tends to take the 'mobile' out of mobile phone...to me, the dash became useless.

use omap clock which comes with the kavana/ricky 6.1 rom..in 'my tools" you should see OMAP
Oh great...... Well I just recieved a new battery and it seems to do exactly that, reboots the phone as soon as i try to open or do anything on it... cheap, but my old battery works fine? how does that make sense?
I brought a new battery 1050 mah with a 12 month warranty for $21 now it doesnt shut off any more, but now my problem is active syne because im trying to update/upgrade from wm5 i had it before but i took it off because i thought the kavana 6 was the reason it went black but now i cant even do a new rom ugh!

did you check your other thread?
no i cant find it lol
reinstall your ROM.. some 3 party apps may crash your device too..
The REAL Fix
Ok here is the scoop, all the OEM batteries are "expiring" which means you get a new one, it works for a week or a few weeks but it still goes bad and does exactly what the last battery was doing, which is cutout, and your phone goes black and won't come on again in many instances despite a full charge on the battery. Buy a new battery from simplo does not work long either. You will have to get on ebay and get an extended life battery. They make fat ones, and high-capacity ones (thin) ones. They cost more but they are manufactures much later than the original oem and oem-like batteries, except they are not expired. I went through three batteries, went to lots of forums, read lots of stuff and finally found an extended life battery that I could afford IE 12 bucks, some go for as much as 90 bucks but I'm not shelling that much out. Anyways 3 months problem free, and I got this phone cheap because of the battery black-out problem. hehehe That is the real scoop. The phones are still great, just ALL the normal batteries are no good, even the new ones. My battery is 1100mah for your reference a like or greater capacity battery would work great.
new battery then hard reset
my htc s621 is randomly turning off on itself. i notice it does this either when it is feeling warm, or when im outside and the weather is a little chilli. i thought it might be a battery problem but i dont want to waste the money buying a battery if its not going to solve my problem. anyone encounter something like this before? any help or advice would be much appreciated. thank you.
had same issue a while ago. i solved it with a new battery...
you can check if your battery is bloated by making it spin on a flat table. if the battery keeps spinning, then it means you likely need to get a new one...
Probably the battery. I'm still managing with my original battery but I talk and text very little. When I put it under a heavy load like browsing, it shuts down. Doesn't do it when it's plugged into AC.

get a new battery... a friend of mine had that same issue.. turned on wifi, opened google, bye phone... i told him to get a new battery and he's fine with his dash
i have the same problem. I have buy a new battery on "battery update" (Hong Kong web site) payed €20,00 (almost £18,00) ..perfect!
But i must say that..unfortunately ..since i use 3evo roms...battery seems going crazy! Maybe i wrong...however
my batter is almost 4 years old but only from few time it's seems "go away"!
i't happens since i use often dash for watch divx and listem music !
task manager say :"battery backup 255% status high but "mAh" are very down!! Change your battery mate!
I have to concur. The same thing was happening to my phone over the past 2 weeks. Purchased a new battery from ebay (~$10) and everything is good to go. In fact, with the latest 3vo Rom, in the past 2 days my battery has been lasting longer!
hey guys deff a battery issue went through same thing with my wifes. fyi if you have had the phone less than a year call htc they will replace battery under warrenty no questions asked just have to have the imei number. swapped out the wifes payed nothing and fixed the problem.
hey, i just started getting this too.

oh yes. mine would actually turn off, and even when its on, the network goes on and more off than on, impossible to do anything but browse th net, if anyone has any idea on wat to change on it, i've also upgrade to WM6.5 but it didnt help,
Bought four AT&T S3's back in December for the wife, kids and myself and so far we love the phones. They all right great but all the sudden I've got weird battery issues.
One day I picked up my phone and the screen said something to the affect of it stopped charging because the battery was too hot. My phone felt like it was on fire. Another time it said something about the voltage being too high? Then as quick as they came, no more issues for like a month.
All of a sudden the error about the temperature came back again. If I use a battery app that gives me battery health information, everything looks GOOD. This is one of those issues where sometimes it does it, sometimes it doesn't. The problem is if I take it off the charger, it normally doesn't do it until it's been on the charger for a couple hours and then its not always happening.
Oh and sometimes it just gets REALLY hot and doesn't give any messages. One other thing, since it started my battery life has taken a hit. I was getting 24~36 hours with medium usage but now I'm lucky to see 12~15 hours under the same conditions. I'm on the newest stock-rooted ROM with no tweaks, no over-clocking. I only have root to have basic things like no ads etc. I've ran this ROM for months without issues and I've not installed any rouge apps, I have no wake locks. I checked all that. I even did a Nandroid backup and did a fresh install and the problem came back after a few days.
I would say I have this issue 2 or 3 times a week? I'm not sure that it's consistent enough that I could walk into AT&T and SHOW them though.
Defective battery? Under warranty? I don't have many AT&T Corporate stores around here, it's a good 45 minute drive to one from my house or work. I should probably figure something out though before my phone melts!
Thoughts? Suggestions?
If you call att, they can do a warranty exchange. They send you replacement, you have so many days to return defective unit or you get charged for it. I would warrantyit.
As he stated just warranty it. They are ton's of reasons this could happen and hopefully they will just give you another battery or you can get "new" phone.
I wouldn't mess with a battery getting hot. Is this just yours ?
Yeah its just mine. The wife and kids S3's are fine.
I have to go into the city with the ATT Corporate Store tomorrow, I'll drop by and see what they say. Actually I'll call them tonight, no sense in going in if they can't do anything for me.
Thanks.
hi guys,
I have learnt a lot from xda and had been using this site for all of my android issues and mods. This is just fabulous.
So, I have been using my Note 1 0.1 since a couple of weeks and it's battery was acting in a funny manner.
PROBLEM
Sometimes it played well down to 60% from a full charge , then down to 15% in a minute and then down to 4% in next 5 minutes. Then i would restart the tablet and watch the battery suddenly having around 35% battery. THIS WAS SO WEIRD.
I used many battery calibrators from play store but none of them worked.
SOLUTION
And then out of frustration, I pulled out the back cover, took out the battery connector, and then placed it firmly, back to its place. switched it on used it for couple of minutes, and noticed the battery percentage. restarted, YAYY! same battery percentage. used it again, restarted, checked again. did it more often and noticed that the issue was solved.
CONCLUSION
The connector of the battery on the main board gets loosen up with time (maybe) and there is interruption of current transfer.
therefore the battery gets it's funny character.
HOPE I SOLVED YOUR PROBLEM, CHEERS!
Hi,
i have the same issue...
is there anybody tried this and can confirm this solution?
I also will try it.
More information
I tried to do what you suggest, I opened the tablet and found this:
can you please explain what to remove and how? Thank you
Lift the tape where the two back ribbons connect, release the clamps, remove the ribbons and reinsert them firmly and replace clamps and tape. That is what i did. Been having this problem for months! Will report back when i drop below 50. That is when all my problems start. Really hope this works!! Thanks for the help!
Update: I am sad to report that I am still experiencing the same problem.

I think this is wrong. In my suggestion the power connector is the white one in the middle with the red and green cables. Just remove the tape and lift the connector upwards to you.
I think the other two black ribbons are for the USB port and for the mic or so.
It worked for now. The battery consuming is extremely better then before.
I hope this solved the issue.
merry Christmas to all

I apologize i left that part out but yes i did that as well. I would like to see others people's results as well though.
Or is it a rogue app?
I've been having the same, infuriating issue, including the CPU getting really hot.
I reflashed ROMs over and over, with and without formatting data, I went back to stock, flashed different kernels...OMG, the amount of time I have wasted is frightening.
I'm finally trying the following and it seems to be working:
- full wipe, reflashed Hyperdrive 4.1, as per his instructions
- on boot, waited 10 minutes and rebooted.
- after reboot I didn't allow ANY automatic updating and I started reinstalling apps one by one.
- battery life has been stable!
- And now I may be on to something! Yesterday, after updating the following 10 apps, the same crazy battery performance reappeared. Then when I uninstalled the updates to these 10, the battery life returned to normal and not acting crazy:
- Dropbox
- ES File Explorer File Manager
- Gmail
- Google
- Google Keyboard
- Google Text-to-Speech
- Google+
- Maps
- Papergarden (Tab S)
-Samsung Link
I'm going to one-by-one see which one induces the crazy battery performance.
Watch this space...
UPDATE: I think it's Samsung Link...when I updated it, the same f****ed-up battery behavior came back! I think I found it! Woo-hoo! Woo-hooo!
I`m having this issue too, got bored changing roms and kernels, KK or LP still no result.
Battery drains much faster on gaming like Dead Trigger 2. 100% to 20% less then in one hour. If browsing and watching videos or doing other stuff SOT is nearly 4-5 h. Besides, when boot into recovery, battery percentage always differs from ROM one and never matches to it. Didn`t try yet method in OP, but anyway, I`m interested in this NewPower99 Battery replacement kit. Did anyone test it?

I would be interested, but since we have three months lefts until Mobile World Conference in March and we could see the Note 10.1 2015 or Note pro alongside GALAXY S6.
Solution
I take the tablet to the samsung and the problem is the board, they had to change this part.

Thanks dude, that really helped me. I got rid of the the fake percentage and I have the feeling that my battery improved . Thank you again
Hi there, I was looking for some ideas about a bizarre battery problem with my daughters xperia zl.
I know this model has had many issues with the battery dying, the net is full of threads about it.I like the phone and have replaced the battery before, and am usually up and running for quite a while.
The last battery died, and I ordered another to replace it.Here's the thing though, the new battery is working when the phone backing is off and is connected to the mainboard.When I install the battery in the phone, and then connect it, it doesn't work.
I find this really bizarre, maybe something is shorting out somewhere?I kind of suspect it could be something to do with the grounding cable (strip that runs across the bottom of battery), but if that was the case, why would it work when the battery is connected outside the phone?
Has anyone else run into a similar scenario?Any ideas would be very helpful, I haven't come across an issue like this before...
Thanks
Turned out to be the battery...
Turned out to be the battery.
I like the phone and finally got around to ordering another battery.I guess it can be hit and miss when it comes to replacements.Hopefully, this one that came from Turkey will give me at least another year or so of use...
:cheers:
