Battery details only show Android OS - Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi everyone,
Since this morning I'm having a small issue with my phone's battery details. All it's showing is Android OS, with 100% usage. I've rebooted the phone and it remains the same. Here's the screenshot of the situation:

[q] ***newowner_sgs2*** weird battery!

okay so i got my sgs2 second hand yesterday and rooted it within 15 minutes (it was still in warranty then )
I am on rr2.7 with siyah 4.1.5 kernel
i have a weird problem. If i use my phone for surfing internet for say a half hour it gets hot and then the battery just falls from 50% charged to 15+ % something like say 17%.
I read my share before posting this.
on one place it says that after a couple of discharge cycles , the new kernel will know better and this will fade out
on other place it says its a calibration error and i need to reset the battery controller .
I am still confused and i am not getting anywhere. Please help !
i have on xxlps modem is thats necessary
I am not expert but in the past I tried siyah kernel few times and everytime I had such an issue with battery drain and hot back cover. when changed kernel everything back to normal.
oops i forgot to mention. this isnt just limited to siyah kernel . i switched back to stock rom and cfroot kernel the phenomenon is still there man i need some answers !
have you try to remove battery for 15 seconds? what about pure stock rom (with no root)?
nah i didnt try try no root . i read about some permanent bricking when rooting stock i dont wanna risk it. further investigating .my phone reports 2 different series of battery values sort of separated by 35percent .65 turns to 100 16 turns to 50n so on. any ideas ?
Mate did u wipe delvik/cache partition before flash rom

how is your battery drain in standby?
post a log from BBS
get a system monitor and check CPU usage/clock
could be a hardware issue too
I did wipe dalvik but not cache. Wants cache partition for anyways? I m trying calibrating but I dont think our phone needs it. If dis doesn't work I will wipe cache.

1) if u go back to stock 2.3, pc companion will do.
2) if you want ur current custom rom to be reset, go to settings > privacy > factory data reset.
3) if still battery drain exists, getting a new battery will help surely, because i got one and its now okay
after full reset, u may format ur SD card also to remove any left over files from previous roms...

I charge the tablet 100%.

I use it 30 min and is 70-60.
I let her in standby after 10 min is 90-80 %.
Use Battery Calibration App

Very easy method to wipe battery status
Install "Battery Calibration " App to wipe battery status . As your device is rooted this makes very easy to wipe battery status
This app does it by removing the batterystats.bin system file. The OS generates a new clean batterystats file soon, thus any fake information from the previous ROM is removed.
Download Battery Calibration

Thanks Each & Every Post That Helps You..

[Q] Why is this happening?

Hey, sometimes my phone just completely freezes, I can't do anything apart from switching off and then back on again and when I switch it back on the battery drops half. Or when the battery drains completely, when I plug it in it starts charging at around 14-15%. You can see both on the screenshot. Is my battery about to die, or is it some kind of bug? I'm on CM11, with stock battery. Sorry, I can't post links yet.

First you can try wipe data factory reset and clean wipe all reboot !!
If still the problem persists then
Change your kernel ... I'm using cm11 m12 snapshot latest with dorimanx !!!
Do full wipe data factory reset, format system and install the above !!
This should fix the freezes.
And if you still are seeing some battery drain then use Betterbattery stats to find the wakelocks responsible and disable them !!
But i dont have any above mentioned problems with my present rom, Im using Dorimanx + cm11 m12 Snapshot i9100 presently !!
You don't need to wipe. The problem isn't because of the kernel/ROM/data, it's because of some file that needs to be deleted. I'll find the tutorial and link it here.
Edit: I can't find it, it might take some time

Really doubt that this will fix this guys problem. Trust me, rom or kernel or app related issue. You are better off doing a full wipe then reflash the rom. But yes, resetting the fuel gauge, using a custom kernel, will solve the drop of battery life when you restart your phone.

Battery drain by Android OS and System Service

Hii. System drain a lot of battery in my opinion. And only 22h when 83% battery?
Heyyo, can you please confirm which ROM you installed and which Gapps and which size?
Same issue for me on latest PA ROM with latest micro gapps from open gapps.
I don't know what is wrong with that ****

Hmm if that's the case it could actually be an application setting or something is screwed up...
First would be to root your device and use BetterBatteryStats app and let it monitor a full device cycle from full battery. It requires root access in order to work properly. If you're lucky it will state what app or service is causing the massive battery drain.
Next suggestion if you're unable to resolve the app or service causing the battery drain is to try to wipe data, system, dalvik and cache and reinstalling your ROM and Gapps of choice. Next please be sure to set up the device as a new one and not recover a backup. It could potentially recreate the same issue.
If that doesn't work? Sadly the next thing to try is a little more extreme...
Back up everything important onto a PC or cloud storage and then reboot into TWRP.
Next plug a USB cable from your PC to the phone and then download your ROM and Gapps of choice to the PC.
Now in TWRP do a format data in the wipe settings. It will wipe everything from the device.
Then use your PC to transfer the ROM and Gapps of choice to the device and install them.
Set up device as a new one and don't do a restore a cloud backup.
Hope for the best!
I ll try this tips tomorrow, thank you
I bought the app "betterbatterystat" , is it normal to have the deep sleep to like 90 % and wifi too ? i don't really use my phone but i lost a lot without doing nothing on it ( every rom stock or not).
