My XDA always shows a battery charge state of 100%. I think this is the reason, why it never start charging. I' ve just bought a new battery but it works the same way. If I remove the battery and charge it with a simple charger circuit, then XDA works for a normal period of time.
Can anybody help me? I realy love this PDA.
Could be the logic onboard the battery has a problem.
It can't be because I've just bought a new battery which does the same thing. Can it be the rsustack? I changed it but can't remember if it works badly since then.
Hi. For those who had the same kind of or similar problem with charging. Finally I made a charger that connects to the external battery connector. Now it works fine. The only thing is that I'm not notified when battery is low. Summary: Wallaby can be charged from the back connector.
One more thing. This solution is realy very very ugly, but it's very cheap and is working.

My Xda II is always charging. Even when is not plugged in.
Battery life is around 6 - 7 hrs.
First i thought that is the battery dead, but i tried with a new one.. and got the same result. He eats like 10 % in one hour.
Now I have Sin.Merged.V.2.0 but is not the soft fault.
I hared that I have do a hard reset but I don’t know how.
Anybody have an idea what to do so will not be on charge mode anymore ?
it's normal for a himalaya to charge up to 100% then run of the battery untill it reach a surden % and then begin charging once more
Is always on charging mode. Even when is not plugged in.
Probably a short on the pins on base of phone. Get a magnifying glass and take close look.

is not this .. i checked...
does anyone know ? why it shows charging and eats up my xda2 battery ?
I have the same problem! My XDA II is always charging. Even when is not plugged in. And i think it needs more thime for charging.
Battery life is around 4 hours.
I also tried hard reset a couple of times. It did not work. Still charging all the time!
I NEED SOME GOOD ADVICE ABOUT THIS.

ME TOO !! please anyone knows something about this ? Why is always charging and eats bettery life time ?
ok, so consider the possibility your battery is on the way out and you need to buy a new one, obviously if you haven't had the PDA/Battery wrong, this shouldn't be true, but nonetheless a possibiliy
always charging and eats bettery life time
I found out that my qtek 2020 has some other failure than yust bad battery. I took it to the service and they try with other battery and also put on my ppc new software (upgrade) but no succes.Battery still always charging and eats bettery life time.
:?:

yes i tried with a new battery and also made a software upgrade but still the same problem...it always says charging...
anyone knows a solution ?
There is a green lite always on. Usualy it is blinking and while it is always on, it needs at least 10times more power than usualy. This is the reason why battery life is so short.
On monday i will try to diskonect the green lite and hope solve the problem with battery life.
:?:
mm
no... don't do that ... the green light doesnt eat the battery...
the battery is eaten because the XDA thinks is charging...is not the light
maybe the pins are touching somewhere... this is what should cause this battery eating
You were right. 4 days testing my qtek2020 and result was mistake in mother board. Imposible to locate short. It is not in the pins, IT IS mother board...
I have battery problem too,
I read it must be alive 160 hours but my xda is down more speed
I changed my battery 2700 mA battery new one same problem continue
it finish speedly
could this problem electronic battery assambly of my xda IIi?
,,
well i sold mine... but i never was able to fix the phone... i dont think it was the batteries, nor the software... i think the phone was broken... in one way or another...
i wish you all luck with this problem... i hope you'll all fix it
had the same problem before, its still under warranty wayback that time, they said its a problem with the board inside. anyway they fixed it and replaced the circuit board inside. the call timers were revert back to 0 and my imei had changed so basically just like a new phone.
I bought a 1900 mAh battery from mobilfun.co.uk, appears as an official O2 battery but have had to send 3 back.
The first did not charge at all, either in the cradle or the phone.
The second charged fully in the craddle and lasted 2 hours before going dead. It would not recharge in the craddle or through the usb cable - battery not seen.
The third again seemed to charge OK in the cradle but when put on the phone it immediately caused a hard reset (internal battery at 100%).
The company has changed the battery each time but I'm at a loss to understand why this is happening. Is it a bad batch of batteries or the phone?
There were no instructions with the battery to indicate the need to charge the battery on the phone first instead of the cradle so I used the craddle.
Any adice gratefully appreciated.
Dear,
Can u send me the link? Maybe I can help....
Hi I had the same problem although the last one received is now working. The problem I had with the dud batteries was thta all the settings and data kepr being dumped!
To markspraggins:
so how many times u have changed? is there any problem with the usage time???
The first battery I had was fine. About a month later I bought a battery for another machine and that had to be changed twice. The present battery seems fine - although needs recharging daily
Hello. Today I bought an Xperia X10 from a SH store. Anyway the phone came in great conditions and at a great price. The boy from there gave me the phone and charger + USB cable. All things good till I start charging it. I should mention that when I got the phone it was at aprox. 60% and after using intensively (like when you just buy a phone) it was, after 5 h, at 22%.
Let's get to the problem: I plug the phone with the charger to socket and let it charge. After 3h it went from 22% to 52% . I mean this is really impossible to understand.
My question is how can I find what is wrong. Now I'm wondering if the charger or the USB cable or the Battery is not original.
On the charger there is written SonyEricsson, so I guess it is original. I'll try tomorrow to search for it's S/N on the net. The Output Voltage is 5V and 700mA, which I saw that is normal for an original charger.
The USB cable looks kind of fishy to me.
The battery seems original.
So what could it be wrong and how can I find it out? Any thoughts, beside what I've asked, about this kind of problem are well appreciated.
Thank you.
That's odd considering the current that was flowing to your battery. Try turning off your phone and charging it to 100%. Maybe It needs some adjusting. Also i suggest rooting your phone, no problems with battery at all with the ROMS that are out
Thank you for your fast response. I'll try to charge it to full when it is powered off to see if time differs.
When do you mean "no battery problems with available ROM's" do you mean no charging problems?
yes i mean that
The only reasons u could have a reduction of current is if heat is an issue or if your phone is in heavy use. Also if the charger is faulty of course. So check the temperature while charging and try diabling wifi and any data u have going on the phone. That should help.

Thank you for your response. While I left the phone charging there was nothing running at all. Also I didn't notice the phone heating too much.
I went to the guy from who I bought the phone, and he said that he will order an original charger at no cost for me. So I think I'll wait for that one and see how it works.
But out of curiosity: could it also be the cable that is limiting the power? The cable is not original.

Yes, a faulty cable can't charge the phone properly.
Wait and see how it goes with the new charger!
Did you plug it in staight after you used it? My phone seems to drain when it is at around 45 degrees even though it doesnt feel hot. Let it cool by turning it off for 10 minutes or so and try again.

Everything is fine now with the new charger which looks more than original and the USB Cable, also original. (The charge time is ~ 2-3h - empty -> full)
Thank you all for your help.
Anybody had this problem?
I've had my GS2 for nearly 3 months and all has been well. Coming from a Motorola XT720, EVERYTHING is better including the battery life.
Last week I noticed that when connecting the charger, it took a long time for the phone to register that it was connected, ie. it didn't beep, light up and show the charging icon. It was also slow to recognize that the charger had been disconnected. (The charging icon would stay on for some time after.)
I thought a re-boot would help and it threw up the big battery charging icon flashing alternately with the battery over heating icon! Even pulling the battery wouldn't stop the warning message unless it was removed for at least a couple of hours or re-booting via Home, Vol+ and Power.
Whilst all of this was happening, battery life plummeted. I normally get about 1-3% loss of battery per hour in standby but this increased to 5-10% per hour.
The phone has somehow regained its normal response to the charger being connected and disconnected but the poor battery life remains.
Its un-locked, un-rooted and running KF3:KE7:KD1
Any ideas before I do a complete reset?
I would get a new battery to start with, if you UK, 7dayshop.com have an 1800mah for only. £4.49 delivered.

Thanks. I forgot to mention that I've just bought an Andida "2000"mAh battery from Mobilefun. It's only had a couple charging cycles but it's behaving exactly the same as the original battery, which confuses things!
It could be that the problem is effecting it our it's just not working at it's full potential yet.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA App
Even the biggest best know battery manufactures cannot make a 2000mah battery to fit the S2 without needing a replacement back cover, the new Samsung 2000mah needs one.
So the Andida "2000"mAh battery , is more likely to be around 1500-1800mah
Yep, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is! Will probably return it and wait for the
official Samsung 2000 mAh.
Would still like to know what's going on with the sudden loss of battery life.

Since you have tried a second battery and the phone is acting the same way the fault must be with the phone, the charging socket is not loose or something?
Or maybe the phone charger is faulty, do you have a second to try?
It looks like you should try a reset before you seek refund/replacement.
Hi.
I have my razr almost one year and from last few months I have problem with battery. My soft is slim kat.
When I'm charging with orgiginal charger battery is charging to 100% and than charger making nosie (whistle) and I think it's not normal so I changed charger and using now a little bit different (lower volate but just a little bit) that I got from last phone... but when charging and let say is 40% and than will unswer the call or disconnect from charger than bettry jumping to 100% but when going to recovery than is showing that 40% but when reboot again to system than system is showing 100%... how to fix it ? why it's like that ?
and one more think before I tried to calibrate bettery so download soft plug my phone to old charger and was charginf to 113% !! why ?

You should use the original moto charger. Might be that yours faulty, should get a new one.
Also, once let the battery discharge completely. Then turn it off and give it a full charge.
After that, try keeping your battery between 20%-80%..And once in a while, do that full discharge-charge cycle.
ok will try to find exactly same charger, didn't know that little bit different charger can make problems...
I always discharging my phone to 15-20% and than charging...
Will try to charge when is off as you said as well...
thanks,
