Recently cracked my screen so I bought a new one with frame. I disassemble my old 5x and took the parts out and fixed onto new screen. The repair was a success but my battery won't charge above 82%? Should I fully discharge the battery then charge it while 5x is switched off.

How about a clean reinstall of the OS? Sounds like the device uses old battery stats.

OK so i bought this broken nexus 7 off ebay with intents of fixing it, he gave me two lcds, one(good lcd, bad digitizer) and two(okay lcd, good digitizer). upon trying to charge it, nothing appears or lights up. And if trying to turn on, it displays an empty battery icon. i opened it up and disconnected the battery to see if i could bypass the battery to run straight off the usb, no luck. i am thinking its a bad charging port. Any ideas?
It could be the charging port or it could be something else on the motherboard. Almost the same thing happened on my SGS GT-i9000. I couldn't turn it on, and when I plugged it in, I got only an empty battery with a circle showing up . I couldn't make it boot. So I took it to a GSM service and the guy there said that some connections on the motherboard were fried and the charging port was damaged, so I left the phone to him and 2 days later I got it back repaired for 20 Euros. I recommend you take it to a service, or if your got the know-how, replace the charging port(very cheap), hopefully it will be fixed.
Hello,
Few weeks ago all of a sudden, my G Pro E988 started to shutdown while in my pocket and was not responding to power button until I've removed the battery.
In some cases I've tried to connect it to car or wall charger after the shutdown and it shows 0% battery, but after the battery re-seat, phone starts and it shows the same battery level as prior to shutdown.
Is there a way to pinpoint why this is happening, can some system logs reveal the source of the problem? If yes how can I read those logs and what should I look for? Could this mean the battery is defective? How can I know for sure before I order a replacement battery?
I've looked at the battery contacts and they are clean, also the battery it's well fitted in its place, with no room to budge.
I've tried slightly bending the phone to mimic the behavior from the pocket as I enter\exit the car, the issue cannot be reproduced.
Thanks in advance for any reply!

I have the same problem. My LG-E980 is 2.5 years old. It just started shutting down when in my pocket--have to remove the battery to re-boot, then it works fine. Battery stays charged. It will stay on if sitting flat on desk or car seat. No problem recharging. Tried wedging the battery harder into the contacts, but this did not solve the problem.
Did you replace the battery? did it work?

Fortunately mine was in an extended warranty from my vendor when I finally decided to send it back and they couldn't repair it or replace it according to their terms, so they refunded me the original price and that enabled me to get an LG G4 with a lot smaller financial effort. In my opinion the battery is defective, because it contains a chip which can get broken especially due to high battery temperature. I suggest to get a battery replacement.
Hello XDA
My Wife's HTC 10 is randomly switching of at different battery percentages, it will then boot loop until it reads 0%. It will just keep saying 0% until I plug the USB charge cable in and charge.
Now this is where it gets strange, if I boot the phone into recovery it will not reboot. Its been in recovery now for 30mins so much for a 0% battery lol
Its almost like the Android OS is reading the battery info wrong?
Is the phone fixable? Battery replacement seems like a headache.
Hi,
Battery is dead. I had that problem. After waste 2 months time with HTC service I claimed to credit card company service and get the full refund.
Now it works only on power cable like a landline phone.

You could replace the battery if you are VERY VERY careful. i would recommend buying both screen and battery in the event that the screen breaks.
So, I bought my HTC 10 sometime last week and I love it, I got the red 2PS6500 version. I have been excited to see people like Leedroid and Faygi working to make this phone so amazing. But I always had a rough battery experience.
At first, symptom was fast draining. It rarely got 3-4hrs SoT, but some days I had good battery life. More recently, I noticed that when using my camera around the 20-30% range, the phone would shut down, and I'd see that it was at 0%-1% and not booting.....
From my research here, this seems like I could try to re-calibrate my battery. I had it charge (powered off) for 2 minutes, then I held both volume buttons + power while still charging. I then let it go up to 100%. When I turned it on, the percent showed 70%. So while it was on, I let it go to 100%. After that, I unplugged it, and rebooted it. It went down to 70% again. I repeated the full charge to reboot. This time, I was 99%. I wanted to reboot once more, just to close the gap from 99% and 100%. USB connection is clean and good, cable works on other phones.
Then the phone just stopped working. It no longer boots up, no LED's, no vibration, buttons don't function no matter the combination. I tried connecting it to my PC and I get nothing recognized. Cannot get the screen on at all.
So I am guessing two things:
(1) Battery might have fired and the connection to the board is gone. I might have bought one that already had issues and this was the last leg of it.
(2) Motherboard damage from the battery? This is something I'm afraid of if I go and replace the battery and I still have issues with it not turning on.
I was hoping anyone with experience might be able to confirm anything I mentioned with the battery issue, and if replacing it solved that.
TL;DR, HTC 10 no longer powers on, shows no sign of life. Battery previously had calibration issues. Should I replace the battery, and then it will turn on, or could there be further damage. Most situations I found were from users that were still able to turn on their HTC 10.
I've replaced my battery recently. I had the same deal. I had to use the actual charger plugged in for a while and it eventually came on

Thank you for responding. My issue/question was more about "if" i replace the battery, will it solve my issue. I have not replaced it yet, and I ordered an OEM battery in hopes that should fix my issue. So hopefully a new battery will allow me to boot up my HTC 10 again.
At least I still have my HTC m8, and I'm replacing it's battery too (swelling and making the screen bulge). The community around the M8 is still strong and there is even the latest RR pie available too.
I gotcha. Sorry I have a terrible habit of skimming and then assuming. Mine was similar but not exact. I was always able to get it to show life after it was on charge for a while.
When I replaced the screen once, i forgot to unplug the battery from the board before I started. I got it all back together and it wouldn't turn on. It wouldn't show that it was charging. So I went in and unplugged the battery and plugged it back in. It acted after like it never happened.

I hope after I replace the battery, it finally boots up. I had to order a new heat blower because mine broke. I'm surprised after I charged it to 100%, it hard bricked and died. I have a feeling th battery was the culprit, since it was always bad at holding a charge....and even more oddly enough, using RR pie on my HTC M8 is FASTER than it was using RR pie on the HTC 10. That battery was very likely affecting my overall experience.
Please do update us with your progress and conclusion. It might help the next person

DEFINITELY. I hope nobody has the issue I am facing at the moment.
UPDATE
So I replaced the battery, was very easy to do with patience and the right tools.
AND, it did not fix my issue. As I opened the phone, I noticed stickers on the chips from a company that apparently did work on it prior to me buying it, and the work they did was bad. I think it is safe to say that the motherboard has suffered severe EDP damage, and it would not be worth the cost to fix it. Burnt pins near almost every chip.... It was so happy being a part of this awesome group, working on the HTC 10 and having Fagyi making the amazing Pie roms. I will be selling my HTC 10 for parts on Ebay if anyone is interested (1 new battery, 1 lcd screen in excellent condition, both cameras, charging ports. . . basically everything but the motherboard that is dead)
So, I am torn between three options. Since my HTC m8 is fixed (top third inch of touchscreen no longer works with tough), I can keep the HTC m8 until it dies and replace it's digitizer/LCD. I can buy another HTC 10 and hope it will not be a crappy one, or I can save and get the HTC u11 (that red color looks so nice!) or go for a Samsung Note 4. I've had the M8 for about 5 years now and it's running RR-P like a brand new phone. I am so sad my 10 just died like that. I was so spoiled with the HTC 10, it was the best phone I ever had. I'd love to have a new device with tons of potential for modding in the future.
Any recommendations then: any device will be modded like crazy, especially with RR or LOS
- keep M8 / replace LCD+Digitizer
- buy HTC 10
- buy HTC U11
- buy Note 4
Hello,
the battery of my LG G4 drains relatively quickly within approx. 2-3 days even when the phone is completely turned off. Is this normal behaviour or could this phone have a hardware error? Otherwise it's working very well, but I noticed that the water damage indicator is red. Thanks.

Batteries older then 2 years should be replaced as they loose their capacity. Maybe thats the reason on yours as well.
