Hello, year ago I had my phone rooted and installed custom ROM. That was great sollution. Then month later I crashed my screen, so I let it to my local service.
They had to only repair screen, but they installed stock ROM and did unroot. That was 4.3. android. I didn´t care it for four months, then I noticed bigger battery draining. So I rooted it again and installed custom ROMs again. My last ROM was MIUI. I think v5, but I dont care.
Now come my problems - My battery shows me for example 80%. When I opened for example sketchbook, and then google browser, it freezed. Only solution were to remove battery and let it boot up again. When it loaded itself, battery status shows me 0%. I have two batteries and its showing simililar results on both. I decided to install custom ROM and unroot it via ODIN. I tought it will be sollution. But wasn´t.
Its the same problem. I am little bit noob, but I can understand to the basics of this. I think, its a problem in kernel.
One of the my ROM was Phoenix ROM. It had custom kernel insade. Is there posibility, that when I installed new ROM, kernel stood not overwritten?
Thanks for friendly help.
Same here. When I plug my phone to AC adapter, it does not show the charging icon, just the regular battery icon instead. And from that moment on, the battery percentage and battery graph freezes. Even if it charges the battery, I can not see that it is charging or fully charged, not if I reboot it. Once I reboot it, I can see that the battery is fully charged at 100%.
On the other hand, if I reboot my phone while it is plugged in for charging, I can see the charging animation, and the percentage rises up after reboot.
Could this be a bootloader related issue?
I'm on MJ5 bootloader, using a 4.4.2 custom touchwiz based rom. Though I was on a 4.4.4 touchwiz rom recently and was having the same issue.
Only CM based roms works fine. This problem does not occur on CM based roms.

well, I think cant solve the problem. I am thinking about note 4. It will make everything better.

Ever since I got the Desire HD (which is a little over a week now), I am running MIUI on it as my daily ROM. I replaced the Torch.apk with the one from CyanogenMod 7.1 (just like I did with my old Desire), so I can have the Full brightness mode.
The Full brightness mode never caused any problems. I could use it, and also with strobe -- I was avoiding using it for extended periods of times, to not harm the LEDs. It was not on for more than 30 seconds continuously.
Now, it seems to be causing problems. I try to turn on the LEDs, on full brightness, and the phone would instantly shut down. Same happens with strobe. It's all good if I don't use full brightness, though.
It doesn't reboot or freeze or anything. It just SHUTS ITSELF DOWN!
I tried this with : MIUI with original CM kernel, with LorDModUE kernel, and also with CyanogenMod 7.1.0. I wanted to try with CyanogenMod 6.1.0, to see if that helps (yeah, silly), but it seems like the ROM isn't booting at all.
I went on ROM Manager, in the section for CyanogenMod, and saw some comments of other people who were experiencing the same problem. Some guy was saying that this is because of the battery. Well, I know this for sure : my battery is as good as new.
Anyone... any ideas...?! :/
which MIUI are you using. If you're using freshly sqeezed then i get no problem like that but if you're using other custom ones, it is possible that the customization done to the stock MIUI can cause problems, some scripts maybe? you should try using other MIUI versions..

I'm using the UK variant (MIUIAndroid). Since I also tried with CyanogenMod 7.1.0, and it was the same issue... I doubt that matters.
Right now, I am having more serious problems. Phone shuts itself down after boot... It doesn't do that when it's in Hboot or Recovery. I even flashed 3 other ROMs upon full wipe.
Battery : 49%. Phone shuts down.
Going into Hboot. 5 minutes, no shut down.
Going into Recovery. It shows battery is at 25%.
Reboot.
Now it shows that I have 11% left.
I guess LorDModUE's overcharging thing kind of messed up with this battery. Otherwise, I see no reason for it to act like this, since I barely used the phone today, and it was at 80% when I left home this morning (GMT+2, that is).
I'll just charge it now... then I'll have to go out. I'll flash Tiamat kernel, see how it handles THAT.
My battery is very faulty, alright. I'll buy a MOMAX X-Level battery (of 1150 mAh) next week.
what rom are you on?
i had the same problem on a previous rom, i changed over and it was sorted.
not to sure why it happens though.

I am on the latest MIUI (MIUIAndroid, not US). I also tried with CyanogenMod 7.1. I believe it's the battery, which barely holds half of the charge... I'm going to replace it soon, see if THAT solves the problem.
As I originally said, it didn't cause any trouble at all the first few days... just like the battery...

EDIT. It really was the battery. Got a new one now and it works to have Torch on full brightness.
I still don't get why it would turn off the phone even with the battery ~fully charged and the charger still connected.
can someone tell me please, where to get this torch-app with full brightness. I've tested it on jellytime, but now I'm on a different ROM.
Loved this heavy brightness... :cyclops:
My phone had been having issues accepting the various modems I tried to install on a recent CM-10 upgrade. Prevbiously had used ROM Manager allmost exclusively until I heard that it was horrible and messes up a lot. Was having an omnipresent sd-ext issue. Also wiped battery stats as I had someweird charging issues where it the battery level when not turned on was not even close to the number tha appeared when it turned on.
I have been wiping every time I update etc as my battery had been acting weird. I had been having problems with the phone reading the [Sd-ext] like it wouldn't see it, but still could access it. So I reflashed to stock and rerooted, however the battery. I figured it was time.
well now the battery shows full, but if I untether from the usb link it wont start on its own. if i "jump start" it with USB power it will start but eventually die and flash to battery charge, or just die immediately when I remove the usb cable. I've been running cm-10 mods, but the issue seems to be worse now that I am rooted. I am thinking I'll reflash to stock and try installing CM 9 stable and see what happens, but if anyone knows a better plan I'm all ears.
FWIW when I am in download mode with the battery in it still works even when not plugged in.
Thanks in advance!
Hi, i'm running Paranoid Android 2.52 and since the last 5 days or so I've me experiencing the two following situations: the battery is fully charged, i start using the phone and it discharges normally, but when I load a heavier app it just shuts down suddenly with a low battery warning. the other situation is when i connect the phone to the wall charger after this issue, it starts charging normally but then it just jumps right to 100% with the same speed that it went down. Already checked the usage statistics but cant seem to find whats causing this, the battery just goes down abruptly.
Thoughts, anyone?
Try a different rom.. I recommend a Gingerbread rom with a kernel that supports battery calibration like Oxygen Rom. If there is no improvement after using the rom, calibrate the battery with this guide. http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=723
If there is no difference, your battery is probably shot.
I've tried wiping the battery stats several times, re-flashing the rom, scripts and gapps, calibrating the battery and flashing rooted stock desire rom.
Is this method any diferent? I want to avoid moving to another rom if I can, i have tried several and i really like my current one.
EDIT: okey, I did as you suggested, flashed oxygen and followed the calibration steps. I was quite hard as the phone shut down as soon as the voltage level drop bellow 3201, but i managed. I experimented for a while on oxygen and the battery acted just the same as before. i have now reverted to jb, this time on AOKP v2.1. Is my battery ready for a replacement?
Hello, I have recently re-flashed to stock on my E980, I am running the phone on the AIO network as an unlocked device (although it would run fine if it were ATT locked as well).
I am looking for ideas to why I am having a problem. So it goes like this...
The phone randomly turns off. It seems to happen in my pocket, not on the desk. When I go to turn it back on, it is unresponsive unless I pull the battery or plug it into AC. If I plug it in before pulling the battery, it says not enough power to turn on. If I pull the Battery and turn it on the homescreen loads and I have plenty of battery in the upper corner (75% or so). When the homescreen loads, its fine for awhile, then back to step 1.
I am currently unrooted (just flashed back using LG flash tools) however the problem was first noted on a rooted stock ROM. I installed CM11 thinking that maybe it was something in the ROM that was initally causing this and a new ROM was in store for me... Did it on CM 11 too. Then I reflashed to Stock and I am still having this issue.
I have tried most everything and my thought is that the battery is either toast or not being recognized properly. I do not have immediate access to a different battery, but I think i can get my hands on one... If I replace it, I'm thinking it would take me an hour or so to replicate the problem and I still wouldn't be certain that was the culprit.
Anyone have any ideas, or things I could try out before trying to source a test battery, or does this not sound like a battery issue?
hey
i got the same problem
gonna have new battery soon and see if its from this
the sell man told me its could be the ROM
gonna try the modem of e980H
I've been having a similar problem as you, and actually had the device factory reset while in my pocket. Going to try and find a battery around my area, and hoping it fixes the problem. Have you noticed any heating issues as well before the reboot?
yea its getting so heated and drain the battery so fast
i think cos its trying to find single i had that problem with rezound too
i think there connection when its got heat -> drain the battey > and also kills the battery after few times
Hi
I flashed lineage 14.1 OS over the manufacturers stock ROM about 3 weeks ago. The Lineage ROM had issues BUT the battery was still charging normally. (Worth noting that the battery was also charging perfectly fine on when the manufacturers Rom was still installed). Seeing as Lineage 14.1 had a host of other issues, I then flashed AOKP's version of Pie with GAPPS Micro. At first, the battery would charge until 53%. However after it drained to 0%, it has not charged properly since. (6 days or so).
A) Battery is about 6 months old, so relatively new
B) non-charge problem started with installation of AOKP version of Pie
C) I have used a couple of battery health apps,which reveal the following:-
c.1) Battery health is fine
c2) Voltage 3.5V (essentially 0% charge)
c3) amperage averaging around 30mA
c4) Battery Manager and other apps state that the battery is "connected but not able to charge"
D) I have tried deleting the batterystats.bin file, which had no affect
E) I have tried using recalibration apps off Google Play Store with no affect.
F) I have cleaned the USB port and tried different cables, also with no affect.
I'm going to try flash another OS shortly. Other than that my last idea is to purchase a new battery. HOWEVER just thought I'd ask if anyone has any other bright ideas as to what might have happened to a perfectly functional battery? Another thing worth mentioning is that the power button on this device doesn't 'click' anymore. So one cannot feel that the button has been pressed, you have to press harder to ensure that the device powers on. It was like that for a long time before this battery problem started but thought I'd mention it. Can a faulty power button be causing a massive power drain on the battery OR be stopping it from charging?
EDIT - when the phone is off and plugged in to the charger, the battery icon shows it as "charging". However if I leave it for a few hours and switch the phone on again, it still reflects as 0% charged and only switches on with the power cable attached. Also I cannot get into recovery mode, after shutting down, unless I leave the phone plugged in and "charging" for a while. It's like recovery mode needs at least some power from the battery.

Does anyone know of a battery app/ software that one can run in recovery mode OR prior to booting? I'm wondering if this battery problem is software related or hardware related.

Now, it appears, I cannot even boot into TWRP recovery. I suspect the non-charging battery is the problem.

You won't believe it!!! After trying every solution known to man, turns out that the battery just doesn't sit snugly in the phone, so it doesn't make good contact. ???*♂??
Charging now that I manually pushed it up against the contacts.
