First take the battery out of the phone for about 10 seconds. Then with the battery out plug the phone up, wait a few seconds, and put the battery in and immediately press power. Should be as good as new. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1964798&highlight=slow+charging)

Hello all,
The same problem here.. I dont know what to do.. After upgrade, charging slowed down a lot.. like 6 - 7 hours to charge. Did you find any solution? Nothing helps (takeing battery in, out, restarting bla bla)... I will try factory reset, but as I read, that also is not helping.
BTW: battery now lasts a lot longer !!

Hi I'm new to android with the neo but I took the plunge and tried to downgrade to 2.3.2 then root and ota to 2.3.4 but I could not get the ota update to 2.3.4 so I updated via seus and lost the root but all went well.
Now I've noticed that my battery really drains fast, I had it on charge last night, unplugged it this morning, took it off airplane mode and bam 1% down in the first 30 seconds ?
1 Is this normal
2 Do I need to charge it 5 or 6 times to let the battery settle in again
3 Or is there something else I need to do to calibrate the battery
If someone can point me in the right direction that would be great, cheers all.

Thanks for replying but thats not it, I charged my phone last night to 100% and so far within the last 2 .5 hours I'm now down to 89% every time I unlock my phone I can see the battery drop a few %
Do you see something special in the battery usage screen?
Try calibrating your battery.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=11803458
There's nothing in the battery usage screen apart from screen at 54% which it has always been ?
I think I solved the problem, I fully charged my neo and then let seus do a repair install of the firmware, the battery is looking better now
Nice to hear that.

Hi All,
i am using a non rooted SGS2 in india. its running on the latest android firmware 2.3.6 (waiting for ICS.. )
the problem i am facing is that from past few days i see my battery drains very very quickly.. even if there is nothing running in background. i am using juice defender ultimate.. i guess its not helping either..
also it takes like forever to charge up.. i mean i plug my phone for charging at 17% after 2 hours it just reached to 21%..
at times while charging it through the USB.. it seems to be discharging.. it was at 37% after some time its reduced to 29%..
Also my phone heats up a lot for unnecessary reasons..
has any one faced this issue? please help...

first of all what programs run in background of your device?
second, what battery you use ? (1650 mAh 2000 mAh)
have you looked at your battery if the battery is working 100% or if the battery is damaged?
what rom is running on your device, which kernel do you use?
Could happen from rom. Here in germany the official 2.3.6 update was cancelled because of problems containing battery drain und reboots. Perhaps same stock rom problems in development.

i think your battery is gone. Maybe try charging it with the phone off or something. and if it it goes to 100% u can try download the battery calibration app on market to calibrate it properly. I would try everything i can before sending it back to samsung.
sounds like hardware problem mate, the phone should warm up when plugged but it shouldn't be above 35°C or so, and the slow charge problem could be related
if you can get another battery to test it out, or just buy a new one
good luck
You could try to reset your battery stats before going out buying a new battery.
thanks guys for your suggestions..
i uninstalled some of the crappy apps that i never used.. & voila my phone is back to normal .. less heat up.. battery lasts for 1 day.. hope it stays that way..
waiting for ICS..
@jeroensk - how can reset my battery stats..?
Clear battery stats boot to cwm recovery >> advanced wipe battery stats
But you will need a cwm and rooted phone ..
As battery stats do not need wiping dont worry about it battery automatically calibrates itself .
Some muppets think wiping battery stats actual does something . |It does not play any part in charging the battery or battery life on SGS2 .

Same problem ! What I noticed is that the battery gets hot. And then it starts discharging.
You can use "THIS" method to caliberate your battery.
Or what I did was charge it till 100%, unplugged it, and then I switched it off. Took out the battery, and kept it like that for an hour or two, and then put it back, and again charged it till 100% in offline mode.
Well, this worked for me.
You can try it out

Try also cleaning battery stats in xrecovery.
And firstly check with CPU spy if your phone is not in highest freq every time and goes into deep sleep. It happened many users with some ROMs, so many that I didnt understood it

2 Situations
Hello,
I met such problem too when i was charging.
1.It will drop and increase back to 100% eventually. Try take out ur battery and recharge. Sometimes not everytime the case successful.
2.How about you try to charge your phone from different places? I tried charging my phone when phone is off in my HOUSE, it will never reach 100% =.= But if i go somewhere like other place/states, the battery fully charged!!! Perhaps something to do with our household electric charge current, i think.
Hope this experience helps

Hey so yesterday my xperia u's battery apperently drained out fully and it wouldnt come on no matter what .. neither did it charge, so i did alot of reading and i saw a post that said keep it on charger for a long time, so i did today
like two hours later i saw that my battery had started to charge but was charging really really slowly.. but anyhow i left it to charge to a 100%
then i disconnected from charger and used the phone and everything was normal .... until when the phone said low battery( it took just 3 hours ) i put it too charge but the phone said it was charging .. (at least the battery icon and the lockscreen said it was) but the device kept giving me the low battery sign until now it the phone shut down and it wont charge again ...
does anyone know a fix for this ?
ps . i am running AOKP rom with transendance kernal and the phone is like one year old now and unlocked bootloader and i used only the adopter and cable provided with the phone

Hii everyone
I've got some really weird Battery Issues on different Lollipop Roms (CM12, ResurrectionRemix 5.3.5-5.3.7, Beanstalk and SlimLP).
The problem is, as soon as i restart the phone the battery percentage drops from 50% to 13% for no reason.
If i charge the phone later suddendly the loose percentage are back, but the phone consumption more "battery" so it's sooner at 0% as normal.
Does anybody else faceing this problem? Or whats the solution?
(Tried several times to calibrate the battery, and it's a new one ca. 6 months old)

I've had these problems when I first bought my phone used off eBay. Phone battery was very erratic. After a reboot battery would be less than half or nearly 0 even with 80%+ battery. Or would shut down with 5% left. Or drain battery a lot quicker than normal.
Soon as I bought a new battery my problems vanished. My battery would stay solid no matter how many times I flashed a new ROM or rebooted. BUT after 3 months these drops have started to happen again with reboots. Not always like before, but they're happening.
I think it's down to battery conditioning. The way you charge and discharge your battery. There are set ways to charge a phone to maintain battery health.
How does your battery react without rebooting from a full change to shut down? You shouldn't need to reboot a phone with a good stable ROM once you've set it up the way you like it. Also calibrating you battery or wiping your fuel gauge meter to often isn't good practice as android and your phone will do calibrating itself after some time and needs the information that these starts provide.
Battery jumps seem to happen with a lot of S2 users. Maybe a flaw in the design of phone. But good battery practices are important, things like not leaving your phone charging overnight. Batteries don't like being left on charge when they are full. There's more info out there on XDA that I can't remember myself as I am guilty of bad battery practices as I use my phone all the time and don't have time to full charge cycle.
Yes same problem
Battery drains really fast when restarting
Any fix for this?
I am hiving battery problems too. Battery is dropping % like it leaking or sth. Last time my phone rebooted due to full ram and it dropped from 50% to 12%. I left it like that. After some time battery re-charged itself from 12 to 23 % ! Phone was lying on the sofa without connected charger ! Should i clen fuel guage chip or my battery is EOL ?

you have to reboot for example if you install xposed and new modules i've calibrated the battery just 3 times i think this isnt too much?
and i understand the problem with charging overnight but there's no other solution for me :/

Forgot to say, if you want to avoid battery drops when rebooting make sure you plug your phone into charge before rebooting. Thus should stop battery dropping afterwards.

The battery often drops when the phone hangs at work and reboot from itself so i have no chance to plug it in.
I have same problem, battery drain too fast & after reboot same time battery level is "falling" at one moment twice. At first, I think it's a battery problem, but battery work fine at CM12 mod, and have problem at SLIMLP 5.1.1 mod. When battery "falling" it's not heating, which means no real discharge.
