It appears factory reset is the only way to fix this, I'm backing up everything I can on my phone right now, so unless anyone has other ideas I guess I'll have to do reset when I get home later. Anyone?

If you are rooted..then reboot into recovery..go to advanced and wipe battery stats..let your phone do a complete charge discharge cycle and see if it changes

Thanks, but I am on stock. I wound up scouring forums and such but got no answer so I just reset the phone.
I had this problem yesterday. Charged my phone to 100% and checked it after some usage today and every shows again. I don't know exactly what caused it nor what fixed it but at least I didn't have to reset
Did you install some apps from unknow sources nowadays? Think about it.. and after clean data from app manager, then unistall them. If you enough lucky maybe you find app which is caused batt stats issue..

Well that's good to know! If it occurs again, I will try this and see if it also works for me. However, I am glad I reset as I have learned some things along the way (SGS3 my first Android phone) and starting from scratch once more allowed me to tinker a bit and keep it leaner and get rid of some junk files

I only ever installed some third-party store for ROMs, can't recall the name, but it's a popular one and quite trusted as far as I was aware. That never caused any issues otherwise, but who knows! Since resetting last night, however, I've been wiser in which apps I now have installed, trying to keep the clutter away
I have a same problem like this with my Huawei P8 Lite 2017.
It's not rooted I am on stock Android and Emui.
Also now its showing 100 % Battery.
Sometimes when I use it to 0 % and the phone shut down I charge it again and it has in 40 seconds 30 % but I don't know why.
I think I hard reset my phone and backup my data.

Batteries don't like to be cycled. If you get false percentages or the battery dies or charges prematurely then you have a faulty battery.
Do not let li-po batteries discharge completely. They do not like it.
I send it to the service and now its working really good

I flashed an aosp ROM which was very unstable and so went back to the Sensation ROM I was using prior to the aosp ROM and all has been well since apart from a sudden drop in battery roughly 3 hours after flashing. I've attached a screen cap. of the battery usage screen shortly after it occurred, should it help anyone identify the problem.

I had the same problem just yesterday, it's due to the fact that when you're flashing your ROMS your battery got miscalibrated. It's a simple thing to fix just follow the instructions from this app on the Play Store (New Market for those of you without the update).
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
Did you reboot the phone in this 3 hours? Coz I see this big step, which is happening when you reboot in recovery or flash something. You need to charge you phone and calibrate you battery

I rebooted after I'd configure the launcher as it was before I tried the aosp rom, but didn't enter recovery or flash anything.
I'll configure the battery and hope it doesn't happen, just wondering if anyone has an idea what caused it?
The exact thing happened to me. When you flashed your phone at a certain battery percentage (lets say 50%) Your new ROM assumes that 50% is the maximum capacity. Therefore, when you rebooted your phone it simply corrected the misreading. Calibrating your battery from the app I provided in my earlier post will delete the batter stats file in your phone and create a new one. Remember to use it when your battery is at 100%, then take your battery down to 0% and charge it back up to 100. I'm currently doing that process now after my phone jumped from 50% down to 20% after I rebooted yesterday.

It`s happening some times, you are not first and not last. Just calibrate you battery and will be fine. Good luck
Ok so I've downloaded the battery calibration app and currently charging my device however the app is displaying the same battery level as my phone.
Does this render the battery calibration a waste of time or is it to be expected?

Mine always does this when flashing and shows the sudden drop in battery. Once you charge it back up it should be fine again I'm sure. It always is for me
Sent from my GT-I9100 using XDA
Yep. You are 100% correct
Calibration apps do absolutely nothing except make you a few bucks poorer if you pay for them :-|
The best thing you can do is charge to 100%, pull the battery for a minute, and put it back in.
Also Ex Tweaks is capable of resetting the fuel gauge chip in genuine Samsung batteries should you be experiencing fuel alerted wakelocks on CM9 or similar.

Now, before you say anything, I know that issues similar to this one have been reported previously (I found 3 other threads, but there might be more). However, during troubleshooting of my friend's SIII, I found the following screenshot in battery usage (which was slightly disconcerting, to say the least). Nothing I've ever seen, on any of the phones I've ever worked in, was even remotely similar to this. No extraneous or abnormal usage was reported to me, and, possibly even more disconcerting, random shutdowns have been occurring every 15 minutes or so (which I would guess are from the overheating, but the phone didn't really seem that hot to me). I am left to guess this is either a battery issue or an active process forcing the processor too much, but I was left out of ideas, and am cautiously recommending a root and underclock if this persists. However, if you have any ideas of what might fix this (other than the rather drastic root + underclock), I'm all ears.
Thanks!

An app drain your battery.
Look at the picture.
No screen on but a lot awake.
If I was you, I root my phone, install titanium backup, backup my app and make a full wipes.
Or if you don't want to root, do a factory reset.
If it don't happen after this, it's due to an app

That was actually my first idea. It's not actually my phone, it's a friend's who asked me to do an impromptu IT session (I use an HTC Wildfire, barely running 4.0, which may be antiquated, but I'd hate to get rid of). I originally thought it was an app, but checking the actual battery usage list (which I'll try to post here as soon as I can get a hold of the phone again) I didn't see any standouts. Running processes turned up all the usual stuff, which is what puzzled me most.
I'll try to convince him to wipe, root, and underclock, but it's a lengthy process, and (understandably), probably a bit too much for someone who just started using Android, which inevitably means I'll need to do it.
Battery Usage List
Got a hold of the phone via email, this is the battery usage list. As I said, nothing really out of the ordinary.
Would a factory reset not be the first step?

Since it is your friend's phone and he is not ready for rooting stuff, then I suggest factory reset and if problems persist, send it back to Samsung for repair.

I can not believe I didn't think of that. Now I feel silly. I'll tell him about a factory reset, back up his stuff, and try. I'll report back if the issues persist.
Thanks a million!

The sudden battery drops on the usage graphs here look like a nasty device hang with high current consumption, possibly a near-short-circuit one, followed by a reboot. NOT like an app draining the battery. Also, no phone should ever overheat to the point it hangs/reboots under room temperatures, no mattet how badly a wrongbehaving app taxes the CPU/battery.
Sure, factory reset is worth a try, but do start seriously considering an RMA
Now I feel like a noob for not knowing what "RMA" means. But yeah, the drastic drop in the battery chart and the random shutdowns probably indicate something more serious than a misbehaving app. Let's hope not!
RMA - return merchandise authentication or something like that, i dont remeber the exact abbreviation. It means - use your warranty and return the device for repair/exchange.
Im also using the international model and Im having the same problem except I never have the issue of overheating or freezes. Its just that with minimal use the battery drains a lot faster than expected and wont even last 10hrs until i need to charge it again, I have wifi and all motion controls set to off and even rooted my device to use the Voodoo RRC Tool as recommended by a dev. Still its been a pain.

Now this does looks like a software issue.
I have similar issues. I got the phone over one week ago and it was great with battery life with some random freeze and blank screen when using Navigation with data connection turned off. However, the phone started to drain battery like crazy one week later: Completely drained within 8 hours, with only WIFI turned on but not connected and SIM card removed. This is after I factory reset the phone without installing any apps other then the stock apps. I also notice that it would not connect to any known WIFI APs that have signal strength below 75% (approx), warm to touch (probably caused by battery drain). It also won't charge from my laptop USB2.0 & USB3.0 ports or any other chargers except original Samsung charger that comes with the phone.
Has anyone else experience similar issues like mine? I don't think it's software related.
I was always happy with my battery, but always wanted to find ways to improve it. I installed foxhound use black wallpaper and battery was even better after this, until...
I read about recalibrating your battery after installing custom ROMs and decided to try "Battery Calibration" App by NeMa.
Today for the first time ever my battery died whilst I was at work, I actually though my phone had broke as I was fully charged this morning and had rarely used my phone. My phone is on charge now and I'm trying to fix this huge battery drain, according to the battery settings the Android OS has drained 71% of the battery, that can't be right can it?
BTW I'm using and have always used stock kernel.
Here are some pics...

Don't let your battery drain to zero, charge from 20% it will train up again, and I guess this app just deleted your batt stats file and possibly wiped your dalvik. If you really wanna look at your battery get better battery stats from play store
Sent from my GT-I9300 using Tapatalk 2
Battery recalibrates itself after a week or so of use .
Wiping the battery stats does nothing and is just a stupid idea that gets posted by those that don't know the facts .

I didn't know this, and I assumed that people who make these app's or post about these know a little something about it, I've obviously received some bad advice on various threads.
So how can I fix this now? Judging by your post, I simply just using the phone for a week or so and it will fix itself?
Thanks for your advice,
bigOliver
For anyone interested or in the same situation, my battery is as good or better than ever. I just charged my phone turned it off charged again until full (about 5 mins) turned back on and just used my phone. Phone has been running for over 22 hours now and battery is still at 40%
Much happier now
Thanks to everyone for the help

There was no such problems from the time I installed this ROM(the day it was released). What caused this battery drain? I would have used one of the battery calibrator apps and seen but I have read that those apps only wipe the battery stats, which according to me wont make any difference.
And now this sudden rise in the battery level while charging.

I have got this problem a few times with different ROMs, I couldn't figure out what was the cause, but only after flashing the Stock SE ICS ROM and kernel, this problem gets solved. But it keeps reoccurring sometimes and it's really annoying as I have to re-flash/re-install everything as I can't do with a phone that shows '30% battery' and in a sec '1% battery remaining, I've ****ed up things for you, Mwahahahahaha'..
Right now I'm flashing back stock ICS, but if this does reoccur, I do not want to be reflashing stock again, so I would really appreciate if anyone can pin point the cause of this strange problem and also a solution for it without reflashing stock.
Edit: : I forgot to take a SS of it, but the battery rises on its own too without I charging it sometimes.
Thank you!

Might be your battery need a replacement. Once i also had this problem but in your case u stated the problem solve when using stock rom. I wonder if the battery or the custom rom is the real culprit.
I also have this problem. The battery meter suddently arise even not charging and suddently drop from 30 to total blackout in an instant.
Then i check the battery and notice a bump. I notice my battery is swelling. So i bough a brand new ep500 and problem solve.
Hope it helps

I have had the problem of my battery suddenly dropping from 10% to 1% and then dead. Both the time I flashed my phone with Spartan Rom after charging it completely. It solved the problem both the times.
I think it has some calibrating script or something else.

Hi everybody, I bought my Honor 10 some weeks ago and I'm experiencing a very bad battery behavior: during night, even in Flightmode, I see a battery drain even of 15-20% which is unacceptable for a brand new device.
This happens of course also during the day because it never lasts a whole day because battery drains a lot even when I don't use it and it is in deep sleep in my pocket.
The problem is that I ordered it from Gearbest and I haven't an European warranty so I have to find a way to fix it by myself. Or a solution to send it to assistance.
Please help me, I'm on panic!

Go to batterry settings and change app startup behavior.
