[Q] Very Strange Issue With Battery and Phone - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

After my Phone finishes charging and I unplug the charger, it randomly shows "Charged" "99% Charging" and on until it gets to 85% obviously it wakes the phone and keeps draining the battery.
I'm on CheckROMRevo 4 and Void Echo Kernel
Underclocked and Undervolted (I've tried not Undervolting and no Underclocking but the same happens)

What about stock ?
I'd go back to stock to see if it does the same. Obviously if it doesn't/behaves normally that rules out hardware & your problem lies with the rom/kernel.

Gonna try going back CF Kernel see if it solves anything, if not then KK5 Stock it is then

Let us know how you get on

Didn't work found a better explanation on gsmarena lol
Quote: I have this phone,,after 6months, sometimes, it won't turn off, every time I switch it off, it turns on by itself. and cannot connect to PC,. there are time that the phone battery indicator keeps charging even the charger was unplug.
I also Tried Hard reset, No Lucky
Only difference between him and me is that I can connect to PC

Battery shows 100%, when it has 3800mV

This is my first post, hope you can understand what happens to my phone (SE X10 mini pro - U20i).
When I connect it to my wall charger, it starts charging normally, no problem. If I charge it overnight, what it is supposed to happen is that it charges to 100%, then it stops automatically the charging process, "waits" untill the battery drops a given percentage, not sure how much, and then charges again, and repeats this process until I disconect the phone. This is the normal process, and usually does this.
But some times, what it does is charging to 100%, stops charging and it remains in the 100%!!! Never drops, and it discharges the battery much more rapidly!! I have System Pannel, and when this happens I see that the processor is allways in the 10%, which is not usual in standby... and as the battery is discharging, the % doenst change, still shows 100%, when it is maybe in the 3800 mV. When I disconnect my phone, the % starts decreasing rapidly, as if it was trying to "compensate", ah in maybe 30/60 minutes reaches 50%... This is not normal, and I think it is some process that stops associating the % of the battery with the voltage.
Ever heard of something like this...? My phone is temporarily rooted with Z4mod, with stock firmware. 2.1
try this:
install xrecovery
make sure your battery is at 100% (let it charge over night)
go into xrecovery (press back while the SE logo appears while booting)
go to "advanced options"
delete battery stats
and drain your battery till your device turns off, doesnt matter how
No go. Doesn't solve it... Going to try to charge it tonight with the background data option turned on. Have it turned off to save battery. Probably won't solve it, but it doesn't hurt to try.
This weekend I've charged it WHILE turned off, during the night. Got it off the charger, symbol in screen appeared with full charge, turned it on, it immediatly shown 18% battery left... This is really weird. Can it have anything to do with not using the original charger? I'm using the original as a travel charger, in my bag, in case I need it at work, and at home I use a Nokia charger, with an output of 890 mA, and with the adapter to microUSB (which actually gets very hot). Do you think it can have anything to do with this issue?
Turn off data traffic and "sync now", you will save battery.
With data traffic and sync on, my phone last just one day ( about 24h ).
With it off, It last about 2 ~ 3 days.
Result: I just turn it on, when is needed.
try turning off data traffic and as ur phone is rooted use SetCpu and auto killer memory optimiser....nd never over charge ur phone....charge it only when the battery is <10% and charge it until it gets completely charged....nd as soon it gets charged disconnect it.....nd set the SetCpu to ondemand and auto killer to optimum...see if that works for u..
lso get ur battery checkd if thats ok...

[Q] Anyone have an explaination to this battery issue?

Hey all
Well this problem has been persistent for a while now, even when I was on my phone pre root and pre custom ROM.
Phone is with Optus in Australia. The problem is sometimes when I reboot the phone(mostly when its at about 50 - 60%) and it starts back up, I end up on about 10% battery and it insist I plug the charger in. All I did was restart the phone and lost 40% battery.
The odd thing is the battery slowly ramps back up, 11%, 12%, 15% and so on, sometimes back up to about 35%
What the hell could be the cause of this? if I don't restart the phone I don't have a problem...
Heres a picture to show what I mean
Does the phone hang at bootup or shutdown? No sign of the CPU chugging away on either?

Nope. Takes about 5 seconds to switch off and about 10 seconds to switch back on.

You can try to claibrate your battery with the app battery calibrator or following these instructions (i would recommend trying both). If it didn't help, maybe send it back to Samsung?
I would charge battery 100% .
Wipe battery stats via CWM recovery .
Charge phone again to 100% and use it for three days thats enough to recalibrate SGS2 .
Still problems you have to try another battery first .
As warranty is now void you will need to unroot restore firmware and zero custom rom counter if you need service .
jje
this is normally. i have the same. just wipe battery stats, off the phone and charge to 100% , unplug the cable, remove battery for 1-2 mins and charge to 100% again.
if i were you, i'll just flash using odin and after first boot do *2767*3855# and let it do couple of charge cycles.... that is full charge use it full charge use it.....
and stay away from any restores for couple days
remember that code will wipe you internal storage
I had the same problem before
but now it is ok
i use battery calibration by neema from market
then watch the voltage it should be 4.200
or slightly less or more then calibrate your battery
I noticed that this was occure after heavy use
and then reboot
after I charged my phone with SE vivaz charger

[Q] Battery is giving strange problem,what should i do?

I will try to explain my problem clearly and in a concise manner.
My battery started giving problem since a few days back.That time I had ICS in my phone.
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.
If i turn it on,it shows battery to be 0 or 1%.Then i used to set it on charging,and it used to work normally and battery starts getting charged from 1%.
On the other hand,if instead of turning up the phone and charging again,when i used to plug the charger in without turning on phone, my phone shows the correct battery percentage.And it starts charging normally.
To summarise-
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.If my phone gets off on 70% automatically,and if i plug the charger keeping the mobile off,it starts charging from 70%.But if I turn on the mobile and plug the charger,it starts charging from 0%
So this thing worked for a few days.After that my phone started turning off quite frequently.And I had to plug the charger everytime it turns off so as to turn it on again.
A couple of days back,I flashed cyanogenmod JB and siyah kernel.Since then it has been worse.
Now phone doesnt even last a minute even after full charging.It just shuts down as soon as I turn it on.I tried clearing battery stats.
I am unable to use my phone,its next to a dead phone.Please help !
What should I do to save my phone?
maybe its time to replace battery...

Are you sure battery needs to be replaced?
One more thing, after flashing JB, the battery percentage doesnt fluctuate as before.
It gets off at say 70%, and then it doesnt matter if i charge it keeping phone on or off,the charging starts at 70%.
Its just that the phone gets off for no reason as soon as it is turned on.
There is an app on market called My Battery Status, you can check your battery health with it.
Sent from my CyanogenMod 10 powered GT-I9100 using xda premium
Replace the battery

[Q] i9100 auto shutdown after unrootin

i have i9100 which was on 2.3.5. i did something stupid with it and rooter my phone ,upgraded to RR JB Rom with Siyah kernel. Since then my phone was very cranky. the battery used to drain down very fast. read a few threads and turned the wifi off when on sleep, never went to 3g network and i used it only for phone calls and msgs but it still wouldn't stay longer than 3-4 hrs before the battery drains.
a little later to add to my misery, the phone used to shutdown randomly. each time this happens i connect the charger and power it on. when the charger is connected, the battery shows 80% but when removed phone shuts down.
i tried to re-calibrate the battery going to recovery mode nogo.
so i decided to downgrade to ICS. i am now on an official ROM by Ssamsung for S2. Un-rooted the phone. same issue here as well. i open you tube , Fb, Dolphin Browser, the phone shuts down. i think this is happening only when i use internet.
i don't see wipe battery stats at all now in recovery mode to re-calibrate my battery.
i am stuck and need help. very close to throw this phone away and settle for a cheaper one. please help!!!!!!!

Battery problem?

Hi all,
I've been having a wierd problem with my gs2 battery recently. It keeps on saying that it's charging however the battery is never increasing, it actually starts to decrease even though it says it is charging. It occasionally likes to turn on and off automatically. Recently, it has only charged when the battery is on 0%, I usually leave my phone charging overnight and when I can get the charger to work, I wake up and it says 100% but really, when I turn it on it says 85% or significantly lower. Sometimes, like now, it decides to work whilst it's on but this is not always the case, that is why I am not sure if it's a port problem. I have tried different chargers and some decide to charge the phone but continously turn on and off (on the off screen, battery charging picture appears and then reloads etc.), others don't work at all. I am not using a stock battery however my stock battery charges okay but is very weak (only last like 2-3hrs even when I'm not using it) and the current one lasts a long time once I nanage to get it to 100%. I have tried different online solutions such as taking the battery out for 10 secs, put phone on charge then put battey back in etc . and it hasn't worked. There have been times where the battery has crashed from 70%+ to 8% whilst it's off which seems wierd. I have attached some battery status images. Has anyone had this issue before? I would really appreciate any help or solutions you know that may work.
Replace battery first, if problem persists replace USB board/port (replacing battery should fix it though) - KeithRoss39 has a guide in General (search for 'Replace USB charger board') which will enable you to do it yourself quickly/easily/cheaply if replacing battery doesn't fix it.
