Hey guys. A problem just came up on my phone. I plugged the charger in and it went from 25 to 35 % in like seconds, I unplugged, plugged again, restarted the phone, factory reset everything. It won't charge past 35 %. Now after I have unplugged, it went down to 30% and it's stuck there for about 2 hours... Neverending battery
Very strange. And did you try using it at 35% and see how it lasted? I was thinking it's not getting the proper percentage reading but was really at 100%. So it possibly would stay at 35% for hours. Either way, it's still something wrong and go for a replacement.

Not that easy, I bought it from another country, getting a replacement would take a long time and the phone btw came back. Tried to charge again yesterday and no problems, charged 100%. Battery otherwise runs normal, about 5 6 hours of screen. Just this issues where it doesn't read the percentage sometimes
You might want to try one of those "battery reset" apps on play store -- something about a file not working or syncing right and maxes out at a lower percentage. The app usually has you hit 100% as best you can guess, then they delete and replace the system file which automatically starts at 100%...
The main problem I foresee is if you are using Pie because I have my doubts Pie may measure battery fullness in the same way most of those apps have it set...
good luck and hope this helps...

While I was charging my battery I was testing different ROMs and restarting the phone multiple times and I think now it's not working properly because is in 75% it says charing but it has been stuck in 75% for 2 hours, so maybe it's already at 100% but the OS think it's only 75%, is there a way to reset the battery?, thanks
what is the specialist of AT&T towards this device?
not sure if it will help but there is an app called "Battery Calibration" in the play store. Give that a shot and see if that helps

Try to wipe batt stats through cwm. Or use a battery calibrator from the play store

not sure if it is the same thing on the gn2, but this same problem would happen to me when I had my old moto atrix.
How i fixed it was to do the following all while the phone is plugged into the wall:
- shutdown the phone
- with the phone off, plug the phone into the charger and let the battery icon appear on the screen indicating that the phone is charging
- once you believe the phone is full (a few hours on the charger), remove the battery (while it is still plugged in)
- Then a battery with a question mark would appear since there is no battery
- leave the battery out for 5 - 10 seconds, then place back into the phone (still plugged into the wall)
- let the phone charge for another 5 or so minutes
- Turn the phone on
This would always reset how Android would report the battery percentage, and it would always revert back to 100% once I turned the phone back on.
Like I said, I haven't had this problem on my gn2 yet, so i haven't tried it myself. Good luck.
After I finished charging my tablet to 100% today, I set it down and went on with my tasks for the day. Checking it here and there, I didn't realize until now that the battery has remained at 100% for the past six hours. I have tried powering down and booting back up as well as plugging the tablet in briefly.
Both the battery menu and Dashclock display "Not charging" instead of "Discharging." When I plug the tablet in, it immediately tells me that it is fully charged.
So needless to say, I'm looking for a solution, preferably simple. Factory reset is a last resort. I'm running an unlocked and rooted Nexus 7 (2013) with stock 4.3, so no third-party ROMs or kernels messing with the battery.
This issue is ironic because I was pretty close to fully-charged last night (80-90%) and when I woke up, I was at ~50% and the battery menu displaying that "Android OS" was hogging 50% of my battery usage. Normally screen comes out on top. I attributed this to my home Wi-Fi router's flakiness, rebooted the router, and the tablet seemed to restore to the correct battery usage levels.
this actually happened to me the other day. left the n7 on the wireless charger overnight and woke up to battery stuck at 100%. at first I thought I was getting some stupid crazy awesome battery life, but then realized it was just stuck.
i did a factory reset to "fix it"...
Nexus 7 1st gen had that same issue. Mine resolves itself after a few charge cycles. Basically the % just gets pinned @ 100% and starts draining down when in reality the tablet might be ~70-80%. Just keep using it and it'll drop. Problem is, since the calibration is off, using it while you have this issue to ~20-30% may cause it to run out of juice and shut off on you since in reality it would be 0%. So I'd use it down a lil bit and put it back on the charger. I just didn't think the new one would have the same problem :\
Have you tried booting into the recovery to see if the battery percent is correctly displayed there?
I ended up booting into TWRP, where the battery displayed as 100%. It may have just been some sweet battery life, but it actually seems like it was stuck, or at least discharging at a very slow rate. Down to 87% currently, so it was fixed after I booted into recovery. Thankfully, just a hiccup and no factory reset necessary.
Experienced another random reboot today, but lucky me, I get to save that for another thread!

So this has become a common problem for me now. every time i fully charge the N7 and leave it plugged in the battery percentage gets stuck. rebooting in recovery gets it unstuck but throws off the calibration/percentage.
I've been experiencing huge battery drops (from 10% up to 20%) after I reboot my phone. Is this a KitKat issue or is it my battery?
In the morning from 99% (after checking a few messages in the morning), I rebooted and I dropped 11% to 88%.
I think It may have been my battery giving me the huge drops. I don't seem to have this issue any more after buying a new one. :good:
I didnt found it on reboots, but i have this problem when i enter recovery. 20 minutes in recovery - i dont hace 20% of battery.

Hmmm that's strange.
I've noticed it usually drops more when I leave my headphones in.
full loaded ACE 2.
reboot cost u 5%
first 10 % gone in a few minutes for heavy users and in a few hours when deepsleep !!
what i wanna say.
the first 10 % gone in a few.
after that normal drain.
I often get this, although not as bad. I usually lose 2-5% on a reboot, sometimes up to 10%. The other week I charged it to 100% when it was off, turned it on and had 92%.
so is this actually a problem or is it normal for everyone?. Mine looses 5-8% in the first couple of minutes after I unplug the charger..
It's normal.

Its normal. I usually lose the first 5% of a full charge in a couple of minutes. After it gets to 95%, battery charge will drain normally depending on usage.

ok then, thanks...I just thought that this didn;t happen when I was on GB, but it doesn;t matter anyway..
If I reboot once, I will lose between 5 - 10% battery. However, if I reboot straight after the first reboot, I will lose between 0 - 2% battery. I've never really understood this.

Battery Charging Issue
Is this normal?
When I charge my battery whether it be from mains or USB computer it charges ok, but as soon as it gets to 100% it still says charging for a little time and doesn't report the unplug charger message right away.
With the Jellybean 4.1.2 system I don't get the alert tone when the battery reaches FULL, therefore I have a feeling that when it still says charging even though it's showing 100% that it's actually decreasing power at that point, any help please?
I have tried other batteries, and one in particular goes from 90% right up to 100% and seems to miss that last 10 percent, so I don't use that one now.
I have the most current firmware installed.
Buy a new one

when it says 100%, you still have to wait for a few minutes before it displays the green "full" icon in the upper left corner and asks you to disconnect the charger.
However, the first 5-8% always drains REALLY fast and not proportionally to the rest of the battery drain...
I think It may have been my battery giving me the huge drops. I don't seem to have this issue any more after buying a new one.

what about the initial drain? does the first 10% still drop fast or has this changed too with the new battery?
I just wish that JellyBean 4.1.2 would give an alert sound when the battery has reached it's full limit like Gingerbread used to do.
Who would be the best place to ask them to do this on their next update?
But I think that it does..a very short one indeed, but it does, along with the screen lighting up briefly..

Doesn't make a sound on my phone and im not always looking at my phone to see it light up.
I have sounds all turned on and on full volume so no reason why I dont hear a sound when its reached full capacity.

are you using custom battery ? like double-powered-battery
Hey guys, I've had my phone for 4 or so months now and I always charge it while my phone is off and never had any charging/battery issues until today, I decided to charge my phone while it's on and it charged up to 25% and I restarted my phone without removing it from the charger and after it booted back it it's showing 50%, I restarted a few times, tried a cold boot, it's still 50%.
Is this a known issue with this phone? does anyone know what's causing this? I've never had this happen before.
EDIT: After this happened I ran my battery to 0% so I can attempt a battery calibration and when I poped it on the charger it showed my battery was actually 0% and showed a yellow hazard triangle thing (normally it only drops to 1% and there has never been a yellow triangle before)
Sometimes the Android system can incorrectly report a battery charged. I have had it happen to me on my Nexus by about 10%, but have not had it happen to me on my G3. I would not worry about it too much if it only happened to you once. If in continues you to jump around in battery percentage, then I would suggest getting a replacement battery. Keep in mind to try not to leave it charging for very long after reaching 100%, from my experience it can effect a battery's ability to hold a charge if that is done repeatedly. Which means do not leave it charging overnight while you are sleeping. Also I would not suggest running it until 0%, I would imagine a sudden shut down of the Android Operating system is not a healthy thing for it either. Just like it is not good to go up to a computer and just pull the power cord.

Thanks for the input.
I never leave my phone on the charger while I sleep since it only drops 1% while I sleep. My phone actually only goes on the charger like 3 times a month
I know it's not good to fully drain the battery very much, I was just draining it to attempt a battery calibration in the os. And when I do this my phone usually only drops to 1% then dies, but all of a sudden it dropped to 0% this time and showed a big yellow triangle with a big exclamation mark in it
Anyways I reflashed my rom in hopes I can flush the problem out. In 4 months of owning this phone I've never seen this warning before.
This is almost exactly what happened with my old phone (Samsung Captivate Glide). If this continues to happen, it is one of the first signs of the battery failing. But if this is a one time thing, I wouldn't worry about it.
In my case, the battery was going bad. It started going from any % battery, down to 0 instantly, forcing a shutdown. After rebooting, It would show a decent charge (~60% most of the time), but would do the same thing within 5 minutes. At first it only acted up like this once a month, but it became more and more frequent that it happened every day, after using the phone for only 15 minutes. The only fix is to get a replacement battery.

tyvm, This is extremely helpful info to keep in mind. Now that you mention it I have seen the battery kinda swollen up a couple times when it got hot, only ever so slightly but I did notice it.
If my issue persists i'll defnitly try a new battery, thanks for the tip
Anyone having an issue with their phone only charging to 98%? It will only each 100% if I unplug it for a bit once it reaches 98% and then plug it back in.

not seeing that on mine.
It does this by design. It prevents battery damage and prolongs battery life (in terms of life expectancy and usability over years).

I've had the 98% issue since day 1. I've never seen 100%. It appears to be a very rare issue. Otherwise my battery performance is great!

that happened top me on my first charge
just give it a couple charges it will start going to 100
I have to say battery life is great for me on pixel 2 xl. every time i charge it will go all the way to 100 %.
Hmm, I've charged it overnight for awhile now and it still won't get to 100%. It'll say that it's fully charged but will just show 98%
Experienced the same thing on my Pixel 2 XL. I did manage to fix it by powering the phone off for 10mins with it plugged in/charging. Once rebooted it showed 100%. Otherwise it will stay at 98 or 99% forever...
Strange thing happened yesterday. It finally charged to 100% and 5 minutes later I unlock the phone and its back down to 99% while still plugged in to the OEM wall charger (showing charging rapidly).
Copy and paste from my post in the Real Life Review section:
I would leave my 2 XL charging overnight (stock charger and cable) and when I wake up around 7-8 hours later, the percentage would either be 97%, 98%, or 99%. I've rarely seen my phone go to 100% since getting it on the 18th.
Whenever the battery hits 50% and I go and charge it mid-day, it would take a painfully long time to charge up after around the 85% mark (the general consensus and expected). I would check and it would be at 99%. After around 10 minutes, I check again and it shows 98%.
Needless to say, I disabled "show battery percentage". If the battery icon is full, then it's 100% to me.
I have this with my 2 xl too. It'll stop at 98-99, and if I unplug/plug back in a few times or reboot a few times it'll eventually get to 100. But it'll drop from 100 only after a few minutes even unused. Not sure if by design or a minor hardware issue.
Mine was charging overnight to 100% now for the last 2 or 3 days it's only been going to 98% overnight. Battery life is still good though.
I was wondering of was something to do with Battery Stats, maybe needs cache cleared or resetting somehow.
Actually I cannot even get mine to charge to 100%

Actually I cannot get mine to charge to 100 percent except two charges ago. That being said there must be something wrong as using the white charger and cable to go from 2% - 98% it took more than 5 hours ! I cannot get it to go past 99 % and I have been charging with phone off then with on and then according to Google support tried safemode but still no difference. Highly frustrating for a $1k phone. I finally shut phone off for the last 20 minutes and then checked the charge and it is now at 100% but what a battle and a SLOW SLOW charging phone.
I never charge mine to 100%, I usually take it off the charger around 85%. Not had any battery problems, don't think it's ever necessary to hit 100%.
I've had the opposite. Wake up it's 100. Listen to music on the way to work for about an hour (bluetooth). When I get there it is still 100 percent. Put it in pocket for another hour, check phone, 96%.
I turned off my phone when plugging it in last night hoping to make this go away.
When I turned it back on this morning... still only 98%...
