Hi guys..I bought this phone a couple day ago..And everything was great..He was charging very fast,but this morning i woke up and he was on 15%..And he is charging about 1% in couple minutes..Why? :S
I use search but :S
SamsungĀ“s USB cable die very often. Try another original cable
Are you using the original charger? It's a big battery and needs a powerful charger, at least 2Ah(like the original).

Yeah this is old original cable..Can I use S3 charger? Or cable from some another phone?

Check with Galaxy Charging. Should be 1600-1800mA average. Lower than that the cable might be faulty.
Use 5-pin micro USB cable, 4-pin often causes problems.
I found 5-pin cable in the house so i will try it..And one more question,i don't wan't to open another thread..
I have 4.1.2 official..I bought this phone couple days ago..And i don't have upgrade to 4.3 :S I saw that there is official 4.4 for Note 2?
You can fix this, not too safe but I use it all the time and works.
You need your phone to be rooted of course,
If you are on TouchWiz ROM, install Nadia kernel (found in original android development section) or AGNi kernel If on aosp
Then download trickster mod for kernel options, go to charging control and enable "ignore unstable power detection" and apply .
This way you should charge at fastest possible.
And yes there is 4.4.2 official ..
if you don't want to root or do any of my things, you need to get better cable/charging place, etc.

There is something going on with my phone, Samsung Galaxy S3, V4.3 where occasionally, lately it has been once a day the power draw from the battery will spike as high as 2,000ma (2 amps). This last long enough to drop the charge 10 - 20% and creates excessive battery heat. It happens on charge or off charge. I have tried viewing the running processes with System Tuner and nothing shows up in the list using an excessive amount of CPU. Better Battery Staus also doesn't pinpoint the problem. I have most everything Greenified accept Google stuff of course and useful stuff like email, etc. I now believe it could be connected with GPS since I turned off the GPS I have not had another event other than a 800ma spikes that quickly go away. Need more time to confirm it is GPS related. Are there any programs that will log which applications are using GPS? Any other ideas what could be the problem? I don't understand why System Tuner doesn't show me which process is eating the battery? Can anyone point me in the right direction.
I thonk it may be the radio itself. I have recently noticed similar issues on mine but its usually when streaming videos. I rarely use gps so i cant speak on that right now.
If i have it plugged in while doing this, it gets hot enough to trigger a shutdown due to thermal event....it crashes!

Same here, I also noticed with System Tuner that several applications that normally use 1% or less of CPU seem to spike to 8 - 30%. This all seem very odd. Now I am wondering if the background radio steals CPU cycles and leaves no time for normal applications. Anyway, the issues are reduced with GPS off although the battery does get warm sometimes without any reason I can fine. I'll try streaming audio and see if it triggers.
I would be willing to try a different radio. My current software is Model Number SGH-T999, Android version 4.3, BaseBand version T999UVUENC2, Kernel 3.0.31-1962493, Build number JSS15J.T999UVUENC2.
Unfortunately, no other radio will work. You can try one just to be sure about it. It wont brick, but just wont function. Youll have unknown imei and baseband until you flash the NC2 modem back.
Im currently running my port of S3Rx 4.0, but ill flash back to NC2 in a couple if days to test more on mine. Im also using a case/housing not meant for the T999 so theres a good chance that is contributing to my problems though.

Okay, thank you for the replies. Please stop by if you learn anything new. Velis Auto Brightness is up to 64% CPU usage, grrr. I posted on developers forum maybe troubleshooting that will lead to a fix. The 2 amp spikes haven't occurred since I disabled GPS, so I am guess you are correct about the radio.
The problem returned so turning off GPS isn't a complete fix, seems to reduce the frequency is all. It looks like Android System is the problem. If I shut down pull the battery reboot the bad behaviour continues, only fix seems to wait it out. My next phone most likely will not be a sammy.
Im not really sure what to suggest at this point. I can say that what we are experiencing isnt typical though.
Out of curiosity, have you given any of the ported kk roms a try? I think my Sprint port is probably the most stable/bug free, but they are all good and ive had pretty good battery on each one compared stock. (Ive always had good battery life even on stock though, aside from a few recent issues that I believe are more my own fault). TMS3KK is a solid rom with very few issues. S3Rx 4.0 is as well, but ill be posting an update to it hopefully later today, so I cant say its really been thoroughly vetted yet. Still worth a look though, imo.

No time to try a different ROM yet. I should have time the weekend after next. Thank you for all your suggestions.
I tried replacing the battery. After the first charge the phone lasted for 2 days before the battery dropped to 5%. It took 6 hours to charge back to 100%. No problems until later, it seems to dislike being unplugged moved to a new location and plugged in again. This appears to be when the problem occurs. I usually just leave the phone plugged in all the time. I'll test further with the power before I make up my mind. I think this will be the last Sammy phone for me?
Is it a non stock battery? I've always had issues with those reporting correctly.

Usually I would buy a non stock battery however since this phone lays next to me in bed to wake me in the mornings I am a little concerned with a fire so it is a Samsung battery from Samsung. Leaving it unplugged for a bit and plugging it back in didn't work stop the battery drain. There are no processes eating the battery according to System Tuner so got to change the ROM.
Should I try a ROM first or kernel or both? Could it be an Xposed module, thinking about turning all of those hacks off?
I just remembered, this only happens if the screen is on and the phone is plugged into the charger. And rebooting doesn't clear the problem.
I would start with a stock based ROM. If it were me I'd go full stock rooted. But yeah I'd ditch xposed for now. You might even try reflashing your current ROM, factory resetting and this time don't use any exposed mods. If it still has problems, then try a different ROM.
It wouldn't surprise me at all to find xposed was the culprit. Its really cool, and the dev is amazing, but I prefer not to use it at all. IMO, it's much better to have the mods coded into the ROM itself.

Thank you Doc, will do so and report back here the results.
My phone does the same thing now. My phone never did this when I first got it a couple years ago. I use GPS a lot because son plays on a travel hockey team. I could drive 3 - 4 hours away with the phone on and plugged in using the GPS without any issues. Now, my phone gets so hot in about an hour of the same type of use and it shuts down.
I thought that maybe there was something wrong with the phone because of age but now I see it could be something different.
It very well could be age related, or it could be partially due to that too. But I'd do as I suggested above and run stock for a bit to test. If on a custom rom, and especially kernel, you could run into issues like that too.
If you have the same problem on stock, (and you're sure its not an app acting up), there's a very good possibility that its more of a hardware related issue.

And it is not the battery. I can't load stock until next weekend, need my phone for work.
You can always use better battery stats to investigate while you use it normally. Let it log all wakelocks, including kernel wakelocks for a full cycle.

Tried that, been there, odd thing is nothing shows there. I'm gonna reload with stock per your suggestion next weekend and if that doesn't work I'll try a custom kernel.
Try remove greenify app and see what happens. Cuz with my case the latest version (2.4.x.x) of greenify driving my phone nuts. That app used to be great.
I'm back. Loaded stock 4.3 ROM / kernel, radio is at newest versions, I am going to say the problem is gone. The battery heats up to about 32-33 degrees Celsius however the phone isn't hot like it is burning up so I believe the problem is like Doc suggested earlier with the radio. Which would explain why the process monitors never see any rouge application using to much CPU. So after some pondering, this doesn't stop a rouge application from using to much bandwidth and cooking the radio so to type. If I had to pin it down I am going to suggest it maybe one of these two applications: FCC speedtest and or Opensignal or some other application. Both of the listed applications periodically test the network bandwidth and report back to a central server. I suspect that this maybe trigger the heat problem from the extend radio usage. No proof at this time just conjecture.
I am considering jumping to an AOSP ROM to be free of the Samsung bloat, NOT CM, don't care for CM, does anyone have any good suggestions to try?
Please read the entire post before answering.
I'm on a VERIZON, RETAIL Galaxy Note 4. As users alike know, as of the time of this posting, it is unrootable.
I've installed several different apps, hoping to be able to change the max mA capacity from the stock 3220, to the mA capacity of my ZeroLemon battery, which is 10,000 mA. Virtually every app I've tried, requires root to do such. There were even some users on the ZeroLemon (go through the last few pages of the thread) thread having some success at having the Note 4 correctly reading the battery, but these were either Developer Edition users, or users of another carrier (the Note 4 can be rooted if you have a DE or are not on Verizon or AT&T), as they were modifying ROOT files.
That said, no matter what I do, my ZeroLemon battery STILL reads at a capacity of 10,000 mA, and STILL drains at the same rate of the stock battery (or at least, "appears to"), HOWEVER will still hang on at 1% for at least half of a day.
Question: Without root access, is an extended battery, in general, completely useless, WITH the exception of the last 1% lasting 12 hours or so and the screen being very dim during that timeframe (dimming starts at 5%)?
That hanging at 1% thing says the battery needs to be re-calibrated. You'd have to google that.

Ok so let me ask you something. Do YOU have an extended battery? If so, which brand and what capacity? Secondly, Are you on the Verizon Retail Galaxy Note 4, which is CURRENTLY unrootable?

I'm sorry but I have to say no to both qustions. I'm using @hsbadr's custom kernel on my Dev Ed phone. The battery life on my stock battery is great. He told me there are battery tweaks in that kernel and they obviously work.
The good thing is according to the Developer Only thread root looks pretty promising. Also Multi System has been released for the Note 3. It should come to the Note 4 next. Hsbadr has a N4 Dev Ed now and promises good things to come once he has the Note 3 owners squared away.
There is some light at the end of the tunnel.

Thanks for your input. The thing is, though, I'd clearly stated that I was on the Retail Verizon version of the Galaxy Note 4. I already know that having root access allows you to further condition your battery with apps that do require root access to function correctly. Unfortunately, I do not have that sort of privilege. There are others that are having luck w/ the same battery I'm using, BUT again, those are users of another carrier, or DE users. That is, their bootloaders are not locked/encrypted like mine is, and are already rootable. What you'd stated, I already knew regarding the DE, and you also said that you're using the stock battery. My stock battery works just fine, I just wanted a bigger battery, but unfortunately, my phone doesn't calibrate batteries of different mA than the stock, thanks to lack of root.
Once root is found for the Verizon Retail Ed. Note 4, I'm wondering if MultiSystem will work. I know nothing about it, what it is, nor what the prerequisites are for it.

Sorry. I didn't know the phone can't calibrate a large capacity battery. If you mentioned it in your OP I missed it.
Multi System is the hot new thing over in the Note 3 forum. I follow things over there because hsbadr is just getting them fixed up before he can deal with the Note 4.

Thanks, again. Again, unless you have root access, no app can correctly calibrate a battery with a different capacity than the stock battery. Had I known any of this, I would've held out for the DE. That is to say, at least with the battery I'm using, it doesn't seem to calibrate, correctly. I almost bought a Hyperion just to test it out and see if there was a difference, granted its capacity is only 80% of the ZeroLemon (8000 mA vs 10,000 mA). I think the battery technologies are different, how, I don't know, exactly. Maybe that plays a factor, and overall quality control of the two different batteries.

Agreed. I'll see if anyone can add some insight to the subject matter.
Hello my friends, I've been a user of this tablet since 2014 and i came to the point that im done with it. So i made this thread because im curious how are you guys out there holding up with yer Notes 10.1 too. Here are my current issues :
Every time i flash something its a time to pray a lot, lots of force closes. Even if i flash a factory image in odin and then flash a rom the odds are of a lot of trouble coming, you wont believe how many times FireFox died today on the same page.
TWRP is a no go for me. I usually can successfully restore a backup on a 1/5 ratio and since a wrongly restored backup ends sealing the death of the current installed rom its easier to just wipe everything and start from the scratch again.
I was in such a shock after rooting my Motorola Droid Turbo, because it didn't blow up or something. The Samsung knoxx software is just troublesome. I didn't wanted to switch to CM13 because of dead camera and some other bugs. But hey that's what has been happening to me, how are yours tab holding up guys? Mine is p601 by the way, maybe the other models are doing better.:silly:
Hmm, probably you just have a defective device?
I have a second hand P600, the WiFi model, been using it for over a year without much hindrance, and I average over 8 hours of screen time over 4 to 5 days of usage. 9 to 10 hours if used for continuous web browsing. The only problem is the WiFi antenna/driver might be buggered somewhere, because like once every couple of months it would completely forget a previously used WiFi point, like literally cannot even see the SSID listed on the WiFi screen, and the only solution is to either change the frequency of the point from 2.4 Ghz to 5 Ghz, and if that didn't work, to completely flash a new ROM. Luckily that only happened once, and just before I flashed a new ROM for unrelated reasons.
Regarding the modding part, I've flashed lots of ROMs and kernels, and the only significant problem is from running xluco's kernel, absolutely nothing wrong with that one other than the frequent restart due to some S Pen problem. The device would randomly restart itself at any moment the S Pen is used, and the fix that was provided by him in his thread didn't do much to change this. I suspect each S Pen model is different though, I used the larger type that Samsung provided for the older Note 10 model, it runs smooth under completely stock Lollipop ROM, but crashes the device frequently if I use either Xluco's kernel, or the 4.4.2 Hyperdrive ROM.
TWRP works ok for me, and I have never suffered any app closing issue. Anything more you'd like to ask?
I'm running ZakooZ CM13, customized Valex Kernel flashed via TWRP. This baby flys! No problems with Spen either. Stable and Fast! Oh, the camera works as well!

Ye i have the same feeling, i was very confused since we don't see many roms wandering around the 2014 forum, its pretty different from my experience with the Galaxy SII for example. I think it all started back when i tried to change the partition to F2FS, had some troubles with SD card too (multiples mount/dismount) all the info i managed to find was to buy a Samsung SD card instead of using another brand. Most of the CM roms worked ok before flashing GAPPS. Anyway i formatted the SD again and tried to flash pcparaamigos rom and for my surprise it did work (I've always been struck on the "extracting system" on some roms), maybe it was an issue related to the SD card slot since im now using the internal partition to flash roms and do backups, gonna need to run more tests, or i got lucky i dunno, sometimes i get the feeling that my device is a living being or something.
I found also hard to find a new replacement for this tablet, one which has better specs overall, not many 10.1+ screen tablets around and gsmarena doesn't tell if they have Pen support or something, just specs.In the end it feels like this tablet have a lot of potential but $am$ung just forgot about its existence.

Not well. I think the device is on it's last legs.
Battery life is beyond terrible, and I even replaced it with a new OEM battery. It was fine for about a week, but it is doing the 30% to 0% within 5 minutes trick again. I wonder if a sensor is out of calibration or is failing? Also, the thing lags beyond belief. Even after a fresh factory reset with no apps installed, it can barely render a webpage without bogging down.
I will end up replacing it; just not sure with what yet. Perhaps a Chromebook that flips between laptop and tablet or another plain 9.7" tablet.

I had the same issue on the Galaxy SII, a reboot was like 10% of battery per reboot I have my eyes on the Lenovo yoga book or the Yoga Tab 3 Plus, dunno about the projector version, the microcrap surface looks like an interesting device but windows 10 is such a let down. I don't wanna buy another Samsung device because knoxx and update issues.

Have you tried battery calibration software? There's this new tweak app released on the Play Store, it's called HEBF Optimizer, has a pretty romantic design and philosophy for that one. Anyways you need to be rooted first, and there's an option within there to calibrate the battery, but make sure you do it while being charged and the battery is at 100% first. Also, perhaps try flashing a new ROM, maybe an AOSP one? I've flashed lots of stuff on my tablet and I've yet to experience any noticeable, prolonged lagging.

That looks pretty neat, a little xpensiv too :crying: The Thinkpad looks okay too maybe if we cant put a win7 there it can shine. I live near Paraguay and we usually find all kinds of electronics in there! Its a buyers paradise, its my last resort if i can't find the model in my region.

Not that I'm aware of.
Edit: heres a quote from another site
"S Note, Action Memo, Screen write(Air command) etc do not work(read about touchwiz if you want to know more on this).
Replacement Apps exist in the Google play store that use some of SPen's functionality -
"CM S Pen Add-on (Root)" with "Note Buddy(Spent helper)" give you a functuonality similar to the stock Samsung's "air command"(that popup that show when you detach your pen)."
I use both of these apps and they function great for what I need.

Not that I'm aware of.
Edit: heres a quote from another site
"S Note, Action Memo, Screen write(Air command) etc do not work(read about touchwiz if you want to know more on this).
Replacement Apps exist in the Google play store that use some of SPen's functionality -
"CM S Pen Add-on (Root)" with "Note Buddy(Spent helper)" give you a functuonality similar to the stock Samsung's "air command"(that popup that show when you detach your pen)."

Thank yo for your help. I'm in a middle of a lot of reading and compiling texts, so this might be my door to the 6.0.1 world
Mine still works pretty fine ... except the touchscreen ... sometimes very randomly it doesn't react to touch any longer only the spen works in those situations.
A quick on off fixes it.
I'm going to replace the battery soon and while i have it open i am going to check the cable.
Mine's still doin ok. On a 1 - 10 scale I'd say mines operating at a 7. The only issue I've ever had is with the battery. After the original battery failed competely I replaced it with an aftermarket one. It was a great improvement over the original battery, but it also brought its own set of issues. Many of the aftermarket batteries for these don't handle heavy loads well, leading to a sudden shutdown. I've reduced my CPU output to remedy this so now it rarely shutsdown under heavier loads. Other than that, I still love mine. No twrp issues, no problems when I flash anything (which I do regularly). Currently running OrionOS Marshmallow, which is a great ROM. All in all, still a great tablet that I have subjected to heavy daily use since it was new and continue to use heavily every single day.
Mine is still fine. I think a lot of the problems come from not using a case with a rigid back. Pressure on the Note's back could lead to the loosening of the connection of the cables running across the battery(display, backlight, touchscreen, usb).
And the plugs of most aftermarket batteries seemingly don't fit properly. So you'd have to reuse the original battery's plug by soldering it to the wires of the new battery. Probably the pins of the plugs can be unpinned with a needle (that works with DIL plugs) and the pins of the new battery fit into the old plug.
Then there's the thing with the bubbles under the screen. This seems to be caused by strong pressure on the capacitive buttons or comes from the closed lid of certain cases, i don't have that problem myself(my Note is from Nov '13).
My phone has been charging slowly for a week now. Im not sure whether its cos the phone got a software update or the port os screwed.
Im getting 0.3A according to ampere app
Is it worth trying to root and install an older ROM to determine the problem?
Its from oreo rom not from the hardware, i have the same issue

Whats the best solution then if its software based? Currently on the latest revision and would preferably want to avoid rooting as I use a lot of banking apps
Magisk is the answer

Realise this is a few days old now, but if you use Magisk as your root solution, the banking apps will still work (I use Google Pay on a rooted stock Mi Mix 2).

I think I'll have to as well.
But quiet on the Xiaomi forums. Think I'll have to stick with a more European focused handset next time
