I have a strange problem with my Xperia s.
Charging used to take ages. But all of a sudden charging from 4% to 100% only takes around an hour. Really strange but I didn't mind since everything seemed to be fine.
But a few days ago I used my phone while charging and I noticed it "skips" while charging. Like, it's at 20% and suddenly says 40%.
Now when I use my phone, everything is okay till it goes down to 16%. It will say 1% and suddenly shut down. When I plug in the charger, it will start again at 17%.
I tried a software reset with seus and battery calibration, both things didn't help.
What could be causing this? What else could I try?

Now we are getting somewhere.
I am using the charger that came with my Xperia ray since I lost the Xperia s one. They have the same output (5 v / 1 a) so I thought it was fine.
Cable is the original s one.
I already tried wiping the battery stats, didn't help.

ok well do you use any ROMS? or do you use stock
if you used a ROM and flashed it not so long ago under 24 hours
just give it some time and charge it to full and see if the issue is still there
if it is i realy don't know what to do for you mate

Hi guys,
I charged my phone to 100%. After I was heavily using it, browsing, going on twitter, etc. And I notice the battery only dropped to 99% while I was using it. It should of at least dropped to 95%.. But when I locked the phone, I waited a minute and unlocked it again then I see the percentage is 92%... Is this normal? I never experienced this before..
I am on stock LFB. I did not root or install any custom roms yet.
Yh I think it's normal. On stock Rom. I stand to be corrected but I think it's not very accurate. There's a mod for it I think. Might need root access. But then u may aswell flash cm10

Nope was always on stock.
I think it is normal. It happens to me as well. Only while using battery intensive apps like gps. While using gps, my battery percentage did not change at all for the 20 minutes of usage. Then all of sudden it dropped by 15%.

You think its a software issue or hardware issue? Could be the battery?
Does it make any difference what charger I am using? I live in Canada and I can't use the charger it came with since it is an international charger.
I used my old iPhone charger instead to charge it.
I also have this issue.
my battery stays stuck at 100% for quite some time, then again at around 20% or so.
My sgs2 is displaying battery percentage inaccurately, it may decrease by alot n sometimes increase too. The phone might off wen theres still 20% left. The latest was a drop in percentage after a reboot, attached is a screenshot, pls help, is this a software problem? Or hardware? Or batterry?

Probably your battery is ruined, and I'm saying it being careful. I also had problems with my original one, they started small but with time they grew up and I had to change it. For me didn't matter calibration or removing the battery, it just got worse every week.
Dear friend, who testing battery from china, is very big mAh. Can we use phone on this one. Battery life really will be a bigger or not ?

If you do a calibration and doesn't work, change the battery with one identical (from a friend with SGSII, dont buy it =) ) doesn't work too... maybe is the charge center from the phone and is damaged; if is it, take your phone to technical support...
I hope you have warranty, and take off al modified ROM's and Root's things.
Hi.
I used Battery Calibration from google play exactly as instructed. Since then, my battery is charging REALLY slow, or not at all. When I use my fully charged galaxy after its charged overnight(connected to a charger) it shows 100%, and when I disconnect it, the battery drops... To lets say 92%. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.
Prayer and alcohol.

Charge it till you're sure it's 100%, turn off your phone, take out the battery for a minute, put it back in and turn your phone back on.

It's not possible to 'calibrate' an SGS2 battery.
Do what Donnie suggested, and if that doesn't help, flash a kernel like Siyah which enables you to reset the fuel gauge from ExTweaks/similar app (you can do it from command line as well, if you search the Siyah discussion thread you'll probably find the exact commands).
If neither of those things work, your battery is on the way out. Buy a new one.
My battery (original) drains even wen the phone is off. First i tought that my battery was broken. I bought a new accu (original) but i got the same results. After about 8 hours ive got 15% less juice and the phone was off. What could this be?

Hi,
i want to know what would happens to my Neo v battery health if i put it in charge for a night?
does it get weak?
what about tethering?
what would happen to my battery if i connect my Neo v to laptop for 24 hours ?
my friend says that when mobile charging completes, the mobile switch to power and it's not using battery any more.
is it correct ?
thanks
If you keep your phone charging for that long,I bet your battery won't give you a good company for long!
Also it would get heated,and it can blast as it gets puffed up!
And as for the last question,
If you meant mobile switches to power saving mode,
Then I think yes... Once charging gets completed,it won't keep on charging!

all i need to know is how long time i could use my battery without any damage if i connect it to Laptop via USB cable? (for example using tethering)
isn't it harmful for battery health to connect my phone to a power supply for a long time?
i forgot to ask this , when I'm using my phone with data usage enabled, the back of my mobile get's warm.
is it normal ?
thanks
Yup it's normal as our phone gets a bit heated on continuous usage!
And keep charging only when it drops below 30 or say 15 percent!
A good charge can take upto 3 to 4 hours not more I feel!
(well,I doubt even that much is needed or not)
Sent from my MT11i using xda premium
thanks
but my main question is unanswered.
i want to know
if i connect my mobile to charger, and it completes charging and shows "Charged." message, is it harmful for battery health to remain charger connected to mobile or not?
sometimes if forget to remove the charger, and during nights I'm slept and can't remove the charger.
is it harmful if charger remains connected?
It would affect but not much.... But avoid doing that on a daily
Basis!

I googled a little around and I found this.
If your battery is based on an actual accu generation than it cuts off the charging. If the battery reaches 100 percent than it cuts off the charging process.
As long as it is than connected to power there will be no new charging.
But if you put out the charger and put it in again than charging will start again.

The articles I read they were talking about a lithium ion accumulator. Nothing more specified there.

it should be something like this that stops charging when it charged.
my laptop is also the same as this and my battery health is almost 100% after several years.
i just wanted to make sure of that my NEO V is the same.
Charging stops when battery lever reaches 100%, but as soon as it drops ~98% it starts with charging again.
Download this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=ccc71.bmw it's creating battery_history.txt log file. Check it after you charge your phone for a night.
p.s. I think you need to put widget on your desktop in order for it to save log. Not sure, haven't use it for some time..
my neo v is having weird problem from 3 days.. from 25 % battery is falling down to 1 % and switching off in an instant..i tried wiping battery stats..but invain..anyone having this issue??
How old is your phone?? May b its time to say bye bye to your present battery and get a new one..
Get it out n see if its in proper shape.. did you make any changes in the battery calibration?? Or uv or somthing?? Such changes if not done properly might cause such problems.. experienced it myslef.. so if your are using any battery stats or battery modification app, try removing it and see.. or If the battery is not fit to use then clearing battery stats wont help..
I hope this meets your need..

print it out and stick papers on your wall...
Open it and look at it.
Read what you(your friend) said in first post, and then check that log if it's true that it doesn't charge once its charged or it does charge every once in a while.
hi,
For quite sometime I notice that at times when i put my phone to charge, the battery would be stuck at a particular % for quite sometime like for eg 50% for more than an hour. But when I restart my phone it would say it is fully charged. I dont really understand what happens. I am using slimcm on my sola. Any kind of help would be appreciated,
