[Q] Battery Issues - Won't Recalibrate - Legend Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello everyone,
I have flashed a few roms to my Legend, and all of them have always worked fine, however NOW I am having problems with battery calibration.
I have tried many different ways of calibrating the battery, however all of these have failed.
The problem started one day when I noticed that when I used to be able to charge my phone to full, it was only charging to about 35% (Give or take), so I decided to buy some aftermarket ones with an additional charger, which worked fine for about a month, when the same issue occurred, it would only charge them to about 50%.
So I read about re-calibrating and tried that, which worked once. However now the re-calibration only gives me 0-2%, which only lasts seconds.
Because of this I wanted to run the RUU, to return my phone so I can claim on the warrenty, but as the RUU needs at least 30%, is there a way of making a flashable 100% battery status, as I know for sure that the batteries are all 100% charged because of the external charger I have?
I have AlphaRev with ClockworkMod recovery 3, and am running BlaYo B0.8 (after CyanogenMod 7.1 RC) if that helps at all.
Another part of the problem is also that sometimes the phone won't switch on without being plugged into the mains, or at least having some power input at boot stage, this part only occurred after AlphaRev though.
Thank-you for all help recieved, it is much appreciated,
TS
P.s. Because of this I now have to resort to my old Nokia 2760, and as you guys know that's so tough when you've felt the power of Android. Also if there is anything that you'd like to ask, then feel free to add your question to me as the sooner I can get the problem fixed the better.

My phone doest power on or charge Nothing!

I was flashing a new rom. And after it said 100% on the phone it turned black and never lit up again. I waited i didnt pull out the usb. 15 min later i checked it again still black. i pulled the usb out. hit the power button and nothing happend. i did a hard reset and still the phone wount power on. The phone's charging led light wount even come on when i plug it up. So i assume i have bricked me phone ?
I have HSPL3
miri19v
froyostone 3.1v
is there any way to bring it back to life or do i toss it in the trash?
thanks for the help
i have also tried to go into boot loader and NIL!
from your use of the word 'trash' can i assume you have a tmous hd2? if so, what did you flash? was it a non tmous stock rom (meaning a bad radio)?
(oh, first job tho, check for bent battery pins)
the pins are fine. yeah i was actually flashing a stock tmou rom.
got the full filename for the rom you downloaded please? (just checking you havent downloaded a t mobile rom that isnt tmous)
the reason im pushing that line of enquiry is that the symptoms you describe are consistent with either
wrong radio (from the wrong stock rom)
bent battery pin
over discharged battery
to test the over discharged battery you can take it out, plug usb in with wall charger, then put battery in. this lets it charge without trying to turn on the phone. the light may not come one for some time, so leave it a good hour or two.
Hey Sam,
I'm having this issue too. I am relatively positive it's from an over-discharged battery. The phone conked out a few nights ago, and later when trying to charge it I got nothing - until yanking the battery for a bit, plugging in the charger, then popping in the battery. Now, every time the battery drains I have to do this.
Is the battery "damaged" now, or do you have any suggestions to fix the prob? I see this posted a bit but no one has any solutions that I've found.
Thanks!
Ryan
well i know the principals of these batteries, but not really the mechanics, so yes id guess the battery is defective, (but it could be the phones internal battery control circuits too, again just guessing) but no i dont know if there is a cure, other than try another battery, and if it cures it, ok, but if not then it would be a warranty issue.
are you using android? cos from what ive read it discharges quickly under android or something? (never used it so cant tell)

[Q] Battery will not charge fully (4200mv) after CM7 install - Need help to fix

Hi,
I have a HK HTC Aria that I have rooted and installed CM7 on. Unfortunately as soon as I did this I dropped the unit and smashed the digitizer.
I then fixed the digitizer (myself), but in the process stupidly damaged the power button component.
I have found solutions to turning this on and using trackball to wake the screen, but it means that I cannot boot into recovery (as this seems to definitely require the power button to work).
Ever since I have installed CM7 my battery has not been accurate, it will not fully charge (only to about 60% - 3900mv) even if it is switched off and left on charge for 24 hours.
I've tried the battery configuration steps a number of times (deleting batterystats and using the market battery config app) - I've also read that this is useless as stated by a Google Android engineer.
I've bought another 2 batteries and tried those, didn't help and I've tried using different cables, nothing seems to work.
I stumbled on this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=battery+stuck
12. Install jug6ernaut's CWM battery fix (even if you had it installed before), do not reboot yet.
Do not disconnect it from the charger still!
Anyone know if this will work with the Aria or fix my issues?
Failing that does anybody else have experience of resolving this issue personally?
I've read a lot of other posts about this very issue (not charging fully, but stopping at 40, 50, 60, 70, 80% etc), but there doesn't seem to be a fix posted anywhere other than batterystats (which doesn't work).
What's funny is that even when the phone is not switched on it still cannot charge fully, though it does go higher, sometimes up to 80% if I'm lucky.
Would re installing Clockwork Mod help? I've since found that I might be able to re flash as the trackball seems to now select options in Clockwork Recovery.
Thanks in advance

[Q] Is there something wrong with my battery?

So, I recently received my dad's old Galaxy S2. Stock JB, unrooted. My dad used to charge the phone in his car and during office time, whereas I've always been an "overnight" charger (keep this in mind as it's important). So, here's what happened -
1. I woke up really late the next day and realised that the alarm clock hadn't rung. checked out the phone beside me to see that it was really hot. The phone had shut down by itself. I turned it on and it functioned normally. That day I rooted the phone using PhilZ (mainly for the adfree app)
2. I didn't do an overnight charge for the next night cause my dad told me that "it ruins the battery". And the phone was fine the next morning. I changed to dorimanx's kernel for all the wonderful extra features.
3. That night, I decided to try overnight charging once again. Woke up the next day to a shock. It was 10am! No alarm, hot phone. I thought the phone had just shut down again, so i tried to switch it on. It showed the samsung boot screen and then the pretty "dorimanx" screen, but then.. stuck. the device wasn't starting, but recovery was working. I removed the battery, I wiped the cache, I installed another kernel (siyah)... nothing worked. FInally, I decided to try flashing a new rom. Downloaded SlimKat and flashed it through CWM. The device then booted up and has been working quite normally now. And I like SlimKat much more than stock! But that's not the point. The point is, I'm scared of charging overnight again.
None of my previous phones have faced this problem. I'm just a noob, but I have a theory. I noticed that the phone, once it reaches 100%, doesn't give any indication that it has stopped charging (like most phones do). The charging icon on the battery still shows. Does this mean that the phone is still trying to charge even after the full battery, which is causing the overheating and shutdown of the phone? I'm still confused regarding why it refused to boot up.
Is this a battery/device problem, or was this merely due to some fault in the stock rom?
You were actually stock in a boot loop (which has happened to me before(hated it). Be glad that it didntt freeze at the Samsung logo. Because then you couldn't get into the CWM.
I am not entirely sure what is wrong with your phones battery, because I have never had this problem myself, so I am sorry I can help you with that. Try going to settings/battery and see if you can turn sound on for the battery from there. :thumbup:
Sent from my SGH-T959V
Given the age of the battery it's likely to be the battery, so replace that first. Could also be the USB board, but cross that bridge when you come to it (try the easier option first).
Your old man is wrong about charging - constant charging/discharging like he did for however long is far more likely to reduce a battery's useful life than a simple use the phone during the day charge once overnight arrangement.

Battery problems and early shutdown? give this a try!

Hi people, nexus 6P owner since 2 years now. I remember when I received the phone I could reach without worries 5 to 6 hours of Screen but then, after nougat and now Oreo, I've never achieved again that numbers.
After rooting my phone, flashing carbon rom and installing elemental X kernel, I played with governor profiles and improved my SOT a little over this year but it was getting worser and worser by every day (2 to 3 hours of screen on time and heavy idle drain). Finally, the real problem came the other day when for the first time my phone shutdown at 29% suddenly after opening the camera.
So I read internet and found in the nexus 6 (not 6P) forums that someone suggested a solution concerning a problem with how the phone meter the battery remaining, suggesting doing a series of steps of charge discharge that I will list here. This, and changing to ABC rom may have done the trick, as now I'm getting much more normal battery life (considering the degradation of 2 years, 2700mah left approximately) of 4, 4 and a half hours (yours will be better) SoT and an idle drain of less than 0,5% per hour, and apparently it didn't shutdown early anymore.
So, give this steps a try if you tried everything like I did and you still having problems with battery drain.
STEPS THAT MAY SOLVE EARLY SHUTDOWN PROBLEM:
- Charge your phone to 100% and use it until it shutdowns (look at what percentage).
- Boot to recovery by pressing power and vol - button, and once in there let it drain the battery until it shutdowns by itself (may take a lot of time so increase brightness to maximum in the recovery menu under settings to consume it faster).
- Now it has really reached 0% and if you try to power it on it won't let you by blinking red in the notification led.
- Plug the charger and leave the phone off until the battery indicator show it's full.
- Unplug it and turn it on, it should show you the battery at less than 100%, like 95%, 90% or even less depending on how bad it was calibrated (mine showed 95%).
- Plug it to the charger without turning it off until reaching 100% and only then unplug it first and then turn it off quickly.
- Plug it one more time (off) until the icon shows it is full and then unplug it and turn it on, now it should say a number closer than before, like 98% or 99% (mine was 99) or it may be 100%. If it shows 100% then you're good to go with the calibration, but if it shows less, repeat the process by letting charge until 100 and then doing the same steps as before until you turn it on without charging and finally it shows 100% battery.
Please report back if this steps worked for you, because for me I think it made the trick.
Now for the battery drain what I did was this steps,
STEPS THAT MAY STOP THE POST-NOUGAT HEAVY BATTERY DRAIN (android OS drain, etc):
-Unlock and Root the phone
- Install ABC rom (check the post here in XDA)
- Flash ElementalX kernel (also here)
- Install the app "ex kernel manager" from the play store
- Enter settings and disable printers (you still can enable them if you have to print something)
- Install Greenify from the play store and select all the apps that don't use notifications.
- Uninstall unnecessary apps that you don't use anymore.
- In the Ex Kernel manager app go to CPU -> governor options and select "load". Choose one of the following recommended profiles: Excalibur V2, Dragon Fly v1, Butterfly or DeadPool. (Or check the guide in XDA about governor profiles).
- Finally activate the run on boot option and reboot to recovery, wipe dalvik and cache and then boot into system.
If you have luck like me, your phone will run very smooth and battery life will be normal to it's current degradation. My phone now last me all day like before and I don't have to charge it twice or three times like I did and best of all, when I don't use it, it almost don't lose battery (2 to 3% overnight).
Also I've never seen again that android system process consuming the same amount as the screen!
I hope this serve someone and maybe save some phones too , I never resigned my 6p because it's a great phone with one of the best cameras out there even today and with great speakers too.
Please let me know if it worked for you! Of course I don't promise it will, but you have nothing to lose anyway! Good luck.
Pd. Sorry for my English , I'm from Argentina
UPDATE: Today my nexus shutdown at 10% but only because I opened on purpose the camera to check if that is the problem, and aparently it is. I've read that when then phone has low power, an app that consumes a lot of battery like the camera may cause shutdown to prevent the phone damaging internal components. So no fix for that at the moment, just don't use the camera with low percentage.
Hi, I don't know if this thread is still on but I'd like to say that I had the same issue. I have a Nexus 6, as you said, and I've installed on it the Resurrection Remix ROM (Neo version). After that, the phone suddenly shut down everytime it reaches 20 or 30 %. I tried two solutions they suggested me;
1) In bootloader menu, go on bootloader logs and press start button for 10 seconds more or less (when you get Google logo and the phone actually boot)
2) Try to reboot the phone in Safe mode and then back in Normal mode
I've also tried to calibrate again the battery (maybe I did it wrong); I followed a guide on it but I can't remember every step of it (if interested I'll try to find it again). Nothing worked, the phone still presents the same issue and I really don't know what to do. I'd like to try this too hoping it works otherwise the last thing I can do, I guess, try to flash again the ROM. Do you have any suggestions? Thanks so much
P.S.
The battery works PERFECTLY; before I flashed the ROM it worked so damn good so I really can't believe that it needs to be replaced, I know that the phone is really old but it always worked fine so it's more logical presume that the problem is with the flashing
Using Stock Nexus 6 Shamu Kernel, with last TWRP and RR OS
Just replace your battery - you might think it's the flashing etc, but at the end of the day my money is on your battery just having called it day, which they can do quite suddenly.
I found that once that early shut down starts it gets worse quick.
It's not that big of deal to change out on these phones anyway and if you do it yourself it's cheap (15 dollars or so). - I've just done it for the second time, not that I was having early shutdowns with my first replacement but after about 18 months life was starting to wane.
Just sharing my experience with my nexus 6p.
Early shutdown problem sure gives us headache. Already tried several methods like calibration, reflashing to factory images, downgrade to minor build or major build, none of them works.
The only solutions that works for me is replace the battery, only cost between $10 to $20 for me (it depend on type battery that you buy, mine is OEM one)
Hello, giving a try to the OP guide regarding early battery shut down. Just a quick question - how long does it take for battery to drain out while in recovery mode? Screens been on for like 2hours now, I see top right screen corner the battery % completely disappear, but recovery still usable. Just wonder, how long it will take for phone to auto shutdown while in recovery mode?
And if this does not work, I'll just replace battery, like @reintakura wrote above.
This device is a disaster. Does it really work?
I tried this the other day. The phone shut off when the low battery came on. I kept powering it up. The first few times it shut off immediately. The next time it turned on and said I had 10% left. Let that 10% run down, it powered off. I kept powering it on... it would boot. I did this maybe 50 times, every time it would boot and then shut down. Then the last time it got "stuck" on the Shutting Down screen. I let it sit like that for a good 10 minutes. It never powered off, it just was stuck on the shutting down screen. I held the power button down to initiate a hard shut down. Plugged it into the charger, device off. Screen said it was 100% a few hours later. Turned on device, device reported 100% used it until it got to 70% and then the low battery light came on and it powered off. Let it charge overnight with device off. Right now it's slowly losing battery, I'm at 76% and it hasn't shut down.
Strange stuff going on.
i was facing the same problem, two days ago i returned to 8.1 abc rom
i'm getting 4h sot and no early shutdown
I can't believe I spent $200 on this **** phone and waited 3 years to get it thinking its the best thing since fried rice, mine started shutting down at 20-30% now it shuts down anywhere from 30-85%!!!!!!!! ahahahahahaha in the end its my fault for buying refurbished, someone obviously sent this crap back already and they did nothing to fix it and conned me into buying it.

Hi, there. This reply is way late, but I've been away for years and I've only now decided to come back, so I'm necroposting on everything that's relevant to me right now. I hope that's not a serious offense.
I've had my 6P since August 2016. I bought it NOS from Google Fi at a slight discount. It worked like a charm for me for years until around winter 2018/2019, when it started shutting down in the cold. I figured that was understandable. I bike a lot, even in sub-zero temperatures, and I tended to keep my phone in the breast pocket of my windbreaker.
It didn't care too much for that.
So, I started putting it into my backpack and it stopped shutting down.
Then, this summer (2020), the battery went off a cliff. It's been dying anywhere from 80 to 10% since June. Maps and the Camera are the big killers, but the battery will plummet from literally any use.
Yet, it will idle for days if leave it alone.
I recently decided to just wipe the thing back to factory and see if that solved anything. It was quite a feeling to scuttle all of my SMS (I backed them up to my Google account, but it seems like they've gone to some mysterious corner of the Internet from which they cannot be retrieved. Alas). It was kind of a catharsis to throw it all away.
I did back up all my media, however.
The factory reset solved nothing, so I tried the OP's recommendation. I loaded into the bootloader and, instead of waiting on the primary screen, I went into (stock) Recovery (my phone isn't yet rooted) and ran the display test a bunch of times. I alternated between that and selecting "Barcodes" since the all white screen is a bigger drain on the battery than the black and green default.
Eventually, the thing died, but it took hours. This, despite that it would die at the snap of the fingers when in the OS. Strange. I charged the device while off until it said it was full. It came on at 95%. I followed the OP's guide until it turned on at 100.
Yet, it still started draining immediately.
The current culprit is "Mobile Network Standby," which is rich because this phone has no SIM, so why is it even bothering to try and futz with the mobile network? I had been keeping the device on Airplane Mode, but I'd forgotten to turn it back on. I just reactivated that mode, so we'll see if that helps.
However, if I watch a guitar repair video on YouTube (pretty staid, not like gaming or an action movie), the battery just nosedives again.
I don't think that rooting and flashing a new ROM is going to solve this issue.
I bought a replacement battery. I'm just not eager to try and install it. So I may just try root and flash, since it's easier. I guess we'll see what happens.

your battery is probably aged, I got the same problem and replacing battery is the only solution that'll work.

I reckon that you are correct. However, I am noticing that my phone hasn't crashed since I followed the OPs charging guide. That's something, at least.
Although monstrous battery drain is still a huge problem. I will be swapping the battery.
My question is: root first and flash something custom, just to see what happens? For evidence gathering ... in the name of empiricism.
Or just go ahead with the swap before doing anything else?

yeah try root and installing ABC oreo ROM if that doesn't make differ at all then replacing battery is the only solution.

Poco Pixel 11 Plus Rom Loop Wont switch on

Greetings,
I have been using my poco f1 for 4 years now and it has stood by me strongly. I only replaced the battery once due to excessive usage from covid (hotspot on almost 12+ hrs of the day).
It had pixel plus 11 rom in it and I was very happy with it too. Over the past 1 week, i noticed it was behaving strangely.
1. The charge time took almost 3hrs even though it showed charing rapidly
2. When I switch off the phone and keep it for the charge, it charges comparatively faster.
3. At certain times, it would freeze and restart.
4. Would heat up during charging, so I would keep it near a window or anywhere there is a breeze so that it doesn't overheat.
As of yesterday, the phone went into a complete loop after charging (It was off while being charged, once it reached 95% I unplugged and switched it on) with poco symbol followed by the 'G' icon appearing.
I thought i'd wait it out, but no luck. The weirdest thing was, when i reconnected my charger (Charge ON), it would switch on. And when i'd unplug it, the phone would switch off and go back into the loop.
The phone was near full charged, but i figured this is probably a rom issue and needs a good flash. So, I plugged the phone in for charging again so that I could switch it on and then took the necessary backups.
In parallel, I downloaded the latest rom (Pixel 12 stable build) thinking that if i flashed it would solve everything.
I connected the phone via USB to the laptop to copy the rom file, but it didn't swith on. It would only do so by charger. (Weird!). I tried it a couple of times, and managed to switch the phone via USB cable connected from laptop. But it didnt last for long as the phone would switch off shortly. Fortunately, it was on for just enough time and i mean, a couple of times till I could copy the file into storage for flashing.
I reconnected it back to the wall charger, switched on and took backups. At this point the phone has reached 100% for about 2hrs or so, but there's nothing i can do in order to get it to be on.
I proceeded to flash pixel rom 12 via twrp after clearing the cache, davlik and all of that. It was successful (no error messages appeared) and when i rebooted it I could see that the rom went through fine as the charging '100%' icon has changed (Its more graphic) but the phone still wont switch on and continues to be on this loop.
Can anyone please advise me on how I can tackle this? I dont want to buy a new phone as I feel there is nothing out there that would match this phone for its value. (I can use pixel rom, good battery, durability)
Any help in this matter would be highly appreciated.
I'd be more than happy to make a contribution to anyone who can provide me with a solution that works. I'd rather be happy with my old phone and you can treat yourself to a nice meal rather than having to buy a brand new phone. (So far, im looking at mi 11x, s20 fe, mi 11 lite, oneplus 9R, but to be honest they just don't appeal to me. You know what they say, once you go poco, you go loco!!!!)
Thankyou
Be safe

Firstly make sure you followed this installation guide.
Then if you are sure that flashing is correct, I think it's your battery issue. You should replace it.

Hi there!
Thanks for replying!
I tried the same out all day yesterday and had no luck.
I have given it to a mobile repair shop nearby (we have a separate market for mobiles here).
Hopefully they can sort it out or else I'll go for a used S20 FE 5G, saw a couple of them ranging from $300 - $400

You could just buy and replace the battery by urself with 5min YouTube video
In repair shop they may ask extra money or try to show u that needs more than battery.
I am sure it's battery tho.

Hi there!
Thanks for replying. So, my phone did get fixed, apparently, the issue was due to the charger port and battery connection. Somewhere there was a short circuit causing that issue.
They mentioned this happens due to overcharging or using the phone when on charge or running heavy applications.
Yes, a battery replacement would add a few more hours of battery life I'm sure as I currently average 6 hours on heavy usage.
I plan to use this phone till it no longer runs as the alternatives out there arent really all that great with respect to value for money and reliability. I hope to get my hands on the mi 12x, it looks really appealing!

I am glad you found the problem and you got it fixed
For sure hardware of POCO F1 is still good and worth the money. Enjoy the paradise of custom ROMs
