So here's a new one on the Thunderbolt. I had my phone fully charged, switched it to 3G (as confirmed by the 3G icon on the task bar), and unplugged it last night. When I woke up this morning it was at 92% (about 6 hours later).
I immediately checked a few emails and popped on Facebook and the phone went to like 85% within minutes.
Driving to work the charger in the car only moved the battery meter about 3% to 88%.
I get to work and plug it into the USB in my laptop and literally within about 30 seconds to a minute, the battery went from 88% to 93% to 100%. WTH???
Anyone else seen anything like this and if so, any ideas?

I have CleanROM GBE 1.6.5 (I understand it is not the *newest* release), I am S-ON with HTCDev unlock. I have not installed any new apps nor updated anything (every update is manual) since this has started happening, nor have my habits changed.
My stock 3.8v battery either will not charge, or will do so at such a slow pace it is beyond unreasonable. It has started yesterday and I can't figure it out...example - being on the wall charger or "AC" connection yesterday night/morning, it seems to have a negative charge, whereas my battery meter actually goes down at a substantial rate while on it. Yesterday, I woke up to a totally dead phone sitting on the charger.
When on a normal USB connection, it takes HOURS to charge. When I mean hours, it took 8 hours to go from 4% to 15%...and took 5-8 minutes to go from 15% to 7% while still plugged in from simple web browsing. The data connection was also off during this period (as well as WiFi)
At this time, I have it sitting on the AC charger, and it has gone from 6% to 3% in less than 15 minutes.
I don't understand how continuing my normal routine can cause my battery to appear like it has gone down the ****ter out of the blue.
--Attached are my battery stats.
Has anyone got the same problem where your L9 stop charging at 89% and start draining fast like hell, mine drop to 86 % in 2 minutes even when the charger is still connected. Battery recalibration seems didn't work. Charging while the phone is dead didn't work too. Any suggestions?
Yes, I plugged my P769 in the wall to charge at night. In the morning, it shows that the phone is 92% charged. Took the phone off the charger and didn't really use the phone much, but checked my phone about 7 hours later and it was down to 1% remaining. Charged it again last night, and it's showing 92% this morning. Seems like it does not charge after 92%. This happens only a couple of days ago, and I didn't tweak my phone in any way.
I was on NuSense Rom, it was working just great for more than a month, last night I left the phone pluged to the charger and in the morning I saw the battery icon showing only 47% (it was 56% when I plugged in last night). I tried charging the phone while using it (games, music) and that was my surprise that the battery icon started to increase (it went like 2% per minute.) Now It only charges while the screen is ON. Any idea what would be the issue?
So, I'm not sure what is happening - my phone battery is all over the place.
It started about a week ago - I'd see my phone battery at let's say 51%. We go out - take perhaps 2-3 pics, and my battery is down to 2%. Mind you - I haven't used the phone until I took it out to take the pics. Data was turned on, but no GPS or Bluetooth, no phone calls, nothing. From 51% to 2% in a matter of about 3 minutes or so. Then it dies - I plug it into the charger and it shows 26%. It charges upto 28%, we get out of the car and I unplug and take the phone with me.
When we get back in the car, plug it back in and it shows 74%. Doesn't change from 74 for a good 15mins and then goes up to 76% by the time I get home about an hour later.
Restart the phone at the 76% and within the first 10minutes it's dropped to 38%.
This has been the pattern, give or take, the last week now. I have no idea what's going and why it's happening.
I have not installed any new apps in the last month, and the phone is not rooted (G925I).
I have also tried to let the phone charge to 100% once it's died and then within 3-4 hours, the battery is dead on minimal usage.
I am not using the charger that came with the phone - am on travel and have a smaller travel charger, but this has never been an issue with the same phone before.
Any and all help is very much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

You should probably use the samsung warranty because that is not normal

Same thing happened to me yesterday. I used tap tap shortcut to launch camera and shot few pics, videos. And then after maybe an hour without using my phone (no data, no gps) i looked at my phone and it had 1% battery left then it shut off. When i got home i plugged charger and after 10 minutes battery was 65%.
As for my situation I guess it's related with camera. I didn't exit camera app, just locked my phone using power button while camera was open and this happened. It's the first time that i'm encountering this, so it's hard to tell. Btw i'm using xtrestolilte 2.4.
I got the same kind of issues. My battery is crazy, I let it with Wi-Fi only, no Sync, no download and it lose 7% in an hour.
Sometimes I may just be on twitter and it looses about 2% every 5 minutes which is CRAZY !
Also, last time it turned off because I had 0%. I tried rebooting and it was at 10% xD.
Samsung did a terrible job with the S6, I don't know what it is exactly but it's weird.
I have had my watch for almost 3 months and recently I've noticed that it is taking longer to charge. I used to be able to put it on the charger in the morning when I woke up and leave it on the charger until I left for work about 1 hour and 10 minutes later and it would easily charge from about 50% to 100% in less than 1 hour. Now it seems that I can only get into the mid 90's charging for an hour and 10 minutes from approximately 50%. I don't like to leave the watch on the charger overnight so I would like to be able to fully charge in the morning, even though my battery life is good and I don't run the risk of killing the watch with one day's use.
It looks like it just needed a restart. Charging nice and fast tonight.

same problem here since android 6.0.1
It seems to be hit or miss. It fast charges fine sometimes and others it is not fast. Last night it charged from 35%-80% in no time. I left it on the charger overnight and when I looked at it this morning it was stuck at 97% and battery stats showed that it had not changed since reaching 97%. I restarted it and it charged up to 100% within a couple of minutes.
