Hey guys, I guess I have my first serious problem with that phone now...
Last night I was just writing in WhatsApp and suddenly the screen flickered like hell and the phone shut down. Couldn't boot up since.
Sometimes I manage it to boot into recovery but I can't really do much because the screen starts flickering again and it shuts itself off. Also I managed to boot the device twice but it started flickering instantly and shut off...
Also I noticed that it just turns on when I connect my charger - even though the battery should be full as I charged it over night and it wasn't even empty back then.
Is it just my battery or is my GN dying? Or is it just some software thing? Pls help me...
GN GSM
Carbon Rom (KitKat)
DirtyV Kernel (23.4.)
TWRP (newest)
Hi, I just bought a used galaxy tab s 10.5 and the battery jump from 20 to 99% in 20 minutes when charging . I started using it at 100% and it shuted down for low battery in 30minutes and I power it on again a it said 75%. How do you thinks is going on with the tablet? Thanks and sorry for my bad english.
Do you know if it's rooted and has a custom recovery. Clear cache and fix permissions in recovery mode
No root
It is not rooted and it have stock recovery. Is there an app to reset battery stats?

try booting stock recovery and do a factory reset.if that don't work than look into rooting it and TWRP so you'll have the option to flash something else or clear the cache and fix permissions
done
I did the factory reset and the permissions fix thrught TWRP but the battery still crazy. What more can I do?
I got the tablet down to 0% battery, to the point that it wouldn't turn on.
Took off the back cover using prying tools and then disconnected the battery, power cycled thrice by holding and releasing power button and then reconnected the battery and let it charge overnight to 100% and now battery life is amazing, don't have those drastic drops anymore.
There are no warranty stickers torn etc involved with doing this so you don't have to worry about voiding it. Just take your time and start at the microsd slot, open the hatch and work your way around slowly. Its difficult first time around because there is adhesive glue as well as clips holding it down. But still very doable without damaging anything.
Here is a link to a battery calibrator for root users

There are other calibration apps
Definitely other options before taking it apart [emoji111]

I tried with the battery calibration app and nothing. I leave you a screenshot , thats is WHITHOUT any charge, when it shuted out I just turn it on again. What is indexservice?
OK after ready the links below I believe a debloated ROM could solve your problem

I will try a debloated rom because son process called index service is draining the 60% of my battery, but is rare that the tablet shuted down and when I tried to turn in on and it shuted down immediately for low battery, but and enter in recovery mode and leave it on with max brightness and it stay awake for 4 hours!! Even when twrp said that is has only 1%.

Post back to let us know it is after a ROM flash
Can you post a full screenshot of your battery settings. You just posted the graph. Not sure about the index service, but knox drains battery too.
Had the same issue crop up on mine. Did the the battery 0% drain then recharge a few times. And factory format. Now it just randomly keeps restarting (even when on charge now). Called Samsung and they have sent a pack to post it to them to sort I hope.
Now with the debloated rom the crazy battery drops have stop but I'm having random restarts. What's is happening now?
I know it's a lot of work and getting frustrating but let's try Odin back to stock .

Now with stock rom I still having random restarts and battery drops. I dont know what more to do and I dont have warranty.
I leave it all night on plugged in the charger and it didn't restart but when I started using it, it freezes up and restart.
Now it sounds like a kernel issue .I really dislike that cortex chip to
hello
i had resurrection ROM and suddenly the phone turn off battery turn from 50 to 7 and turn off again and didn't stop unless i connect power cable
i format the device to ARHD ROM and its still doing it
but the problem is when im in TWRP it doesn't turn off with out power cable so it probably not the battery
any help please what it can be?
I have come across this problem of rapid battery loss but not as severe as yours, it took only 9 minutes for my whole battery to drain from 100 to 10. But i also did switch roms and even recovered stock firmware but nothing seemed to work. After a while, i kept switching and switching roms and eventually, the power issue stopped, i had no idea what happened. Is it because i don't use my phone often Anyways a battery replacement would probably be necessary if the problem still occurs. This power issue is inconvenient and would like to know if someone else would be able to know of a better solution.
Hi,
I currently have a problem with my g3. 60% of the times when I try to restart OR turn off/boot the phone doesn't boot at all until I remove/insert the battery which is annoying.
The phone is rooted and on cloudyg3. I had the same problem on Blisspop rom. Is it a hardware problem or software what do you think? The phone does not seems to completely shut down.
Oh, a time when battery ran out of juice, I charged the phone for 15min and noticed that i had to remove/insert battery to see the Red LED/Battery screen and make it turn on. An empty battery cannot keep the software running.
Thanks
Hello everyone! Recently my Note II started to behave differently. Whenever I charged it completely, the battery abruptly fell to sometimes 60% sometimes 40% immediately followed by low battery warning indication and shutting down. I tried changing ROM and calibrating the battery again but nothing worked. Finally I replaced the battery with a new one and also clean flashed another ROM in a hope to see if the problem is gone or still there. But to my surprise the problem is still intact. Now, when I turn on the phone the battery is 90% and when I keep using it, it drains normally, but as soon as I put it idle it turns off randomly. When I turn the phone back on the battery is still at the same percentage level at which is turns off. I believe there is not an issue with the battery. Please help me what to do, I am using TWRP recovery that doesn't gives the battery stats wipe option too. Should I flash a new ROM again? I would greatly appreciate if someone please helps me in sorting this problem.
What I have already done!
1. Replaced the battery
2. Changed the ROM
3. Re-calibrated the battery
