Hi everyone!
My Atrix battery won't charge past 69%, it constantly overheats (recently it even shut down because of it) while in use or charging (in the lower area of the phone) and the battery drains really fast. I can't get 12 hours of battery life. I am running CM7 (obviously), and before CM7 i had the stock 2.3.6 and Avatar ROM, which was based on 4.1.2, and all of those problems persisted on all ROMs.
I never leave WiFi, Bluetooth, 3g, 2g or GPS on. As far as I can tell, there is no application that's using up my CPU.
Right now, I've installed Usage Timelines to make sure that nothing uses my CPU, and at first it was normal, staying around 10%, and then all of a sudden it jumped to 100%, and the only two things that were using it were android system (at around 50%) and status bar (at around 30%). Basically, the whole phone acts abnormal and I don't know what to do anymore. I've installed multiple CPU monitoring apps, and every one showed different results. A few of them showed very anomalous readings, showing that my CPU rapidly changes speed, while a few of them showed perfectly normal readings.
I bought the phone on eBay so no warranty. I've had the issues since I bought the phone, but I thought they're just battery issues and since I was already planning on buying a new one, I didn't ask for a return. Now I'm wondering, is it really the battery or could it be hardware?

Check with CPU spy after running for a day, and make sure its properly entering "Deep Sleep" after inactivity. If its not, that could be the culprit. I seem to remember there being a BT Deep Sleep fix that fixed this issue.
I some times have the same problem with the overheating. I just solved it changing the kernel or the rom. I believe there must be something incompatible between our hardware and the software/kernel in our devices
Okay feltZ, I'll try that.
I'll also try changing my kernel, but I don't think that is the issue, because I believe both Avatar ROM and CM7 come with their own kernels, and as I had the issue on both of those, as well as on the stock ROM, I don't think that's it.

Nope, it's not the deep sleep.
I've found a fix for the battery not charging to 100%, but the overheating and low battery life still remain an issue.
Why my atrix can not charge up to 100% only 90%. Help me

Use atrix battery fix. In that app, check the mV when atrix stops charging. If it is lose to 4200mV, tjen it is fully charged

did you checked the mV values?
I have to use it every charge, mine don't go past 80%.
Still, battery life is the same, it just will stay in 5% longer
After charging volume is 3627 mv not 4200

Then you should get a new battery. Arroun that is the value i get when my phone is at 15~20%

My phone drains the battery very quickly from 100% to 1% but after reaching 1% it can be used for hours.Last time after the full charge battery dropped from 100-1% in about 2 1/2 hours of use on WiFi but after that it lasted for more than 13 hours on 1% but the Network data, Bluetooth and WiFi was off.
Currently i am running CM7 stable (battery fix is also applied) i was also facing such issues on the stock 2.3.4.
maybe a battery re-calibration can solve this issue?

I bought my Atrix 3 weeks ago. My previous device was also another Motorola, Milestone.
When I first started to use Atrix I found that the battery was draining so quickly even I didn’t install any apps yet. It was becoming 1% in 70 minutes with full display and running default apps.
I tried to full battery several times, did factory resets and finally went back to shop. The shop replaced the battery with another new one.
Still it happened same problem. Then they changed my device with another new one. It was same, too.
I would give it back to shop but last time I decided to discharge it until it turns off.
At this point I found that discharging takes long time after it became 1%. For example by heavy using it becomes 1% in 70 minutes, then it takes at least 200 minutes more even I watch videos via Youtube, play games etc.. It means in total it takes at least 4,5 hours with full display and heavy usage. That’s OK for me as battery life.
But I want my battery meter show correct percentage. Then I can be able to know when it will turn off.
I tried battery calibration several times. I search a lot about this problem but found nothing. Probably people thinks that their battery life is too short.
So cannot find solution.
Summary: My Atrix’s battery meter immediately drop to 1% and then runs 3 times longer than previous 99%. PLEASE HELP ME TO CORRECT MY BATTERY METER DISPLAY.
Do you think that your battery fix way helps me?
Please see details of my Atrix below:

I don't know. I bought it, and unlocked it directly, then flash CM7 Rom, but noticed that the battery drain very fast. However, after the indicator becomes 1%, I can still use rather a long time. I thought it was an error on battery meter, but I can't make it display correctly through calibration.
Now if the battery is fully charged, I can still use rather a long time after the indicator becomes 1%. But after the battery drained, it can't be charged completely. It really disappoints me very much.

Ya that's the same problem i have i think its something to do with phone recognizing the mah capacity of the battery if u can see the charge-full-design in sys/class/power-supply/battery/charge-full-design u will notice it showing only 500 which should be 1880 that's why our phone drops and charge quickly according the capacity its getting from charge-full-design.
This value can be changed on other phone but for Motorola i have not found any tutorial or app to do so

And for charging don't take off the phone from charging on 100% bcoz when the phone battery meter is showing 100% its battery mv is less than 3900mv and if u keep it on charge after 100% battery mv value will gradually go up to 4200mv which is the actual capacity of the battery.

Oh, thanks. The value in sys/class/power-supply/battery/charge-full-design is just a result, representing the battery statue. So the key is that the battery capacity can't be recognized correctly by the phone. I just test another battery, and the value 1880!
But the former battery doesn't look like a fake one. Actually, I bought them together. I can't understand.
Okay, so i just installed CM10 (Dec 5 release) with no problems. Audio working just fine through both speakers. minor issue when connecting to bluetooth and wifi but reflashing fixed that. My issue is with the battery draining EXTREMELY FAST. Has anyone found a resolution to this?
Thanks, Jwallbanger.

first question, what do you mean by extremely fast? unless your phone is dieing in under an hr from full charge i wouldn't say its "extremely fast".. secondly there is a "discussion thread" located in the general section of the forums to talk about and find solutions to problems related to CM 10 found here, also have you checked your battery stats to see what is eating your battery away? weather its screen on time, cell standby, wifi or data... or an app.. there are several issues related to battery drain.. like if you have wifi on but not connected to a wifi location.. or having data on but in an area with no signal.. more information is needed but i would prob suggest to do a full charge to 100% wipe battery stats from recovery and then do a test from 100% to see how long your phone lasts with full usage and in full standby mode... then compare and see what is eating your battery life away...if not refer to the thread i liked earlier up in this post

My suspicion is that Google now prevents the phone from sleeping normally hence affecting battery life in standby mode. However if its dying in under an hour that is quite drastic and I would suspect there might either be a rogue app running in the background (do you have the eBay app installed? I found that also contributed to awake times in cm10). Second question is how long did your battery last in speed rom? Were you getting at least 2 hours of screen on time? If you got less than 1 hour and 30 minutes of "screen on" time in speed rom with data not constantly on I would suspect your battery is failing as well. Good luck

Try a different Rom, is same experience, i recommend a new battery.. Battery can wear out over time..
Hello!
Lately I've been suffering from a battery problem, I will explain what happens.
I charge my phone completely and then I start using it... when it hits 30% left, the next drop is 20 instead of 29%. For example... If it takes 3 minutes to go down from 84% to 83%... that's the same time it takes from 30% to 20%.
It also happens when it hits 14%, instead of dropping to 13% it drops to 4%.
How can I fix this? I've been told that it's an issue of flashing too many ROM's
Actual ROM; Carbon 1.7 Stable version
Previous ROM: D-WIZ JBX.
P.S: I've been facing this issue for months now, I think it started with D-WIZ.
Thanks

How old is your phone.?
Its common for old batteries to incorrectly display battery data. This simply happens because the battd daemon uses the estimation based on checkpoints and voltage of the battery. When the battery gets old, the actual charge stored is less than the reported value and results in wrong calculation by battd.
If your device is pretty old, it is in a sense normal. However if its new then it might be some problem.
PS: The battery calibration is a myth! The /data/system/batterystats.bin file is not related to battery charge/life/status (exactly as Google devs stated earlier).
In case of our Razr, charge the battery to 100% and keep charging for few hours after that. Then disconnect it battd will display correct 99%. That's all you need when changing ROMs or batteries! Do not waste your time on "battery calibration"!

What I usually when I switch ROMs is I will both download battery calibration, and keep the charge at 100% for a couple of hours after. That way there is no doubt that it truly is at 100%, and Battery Calibration can do the job well hope this helps!

I wouldn't consider it very old. I think in your case it can be fixed. There were some files that needed to be replaced. don't remember it exactly but will look into it.
Mine does this to. Not sure if there are dead battery cells or if its associated with rom.

Hi xda! So I've been having a problem for a couple of months with my SGSII and i have searched a lot but i haven't found a solution yet.
The problem is that battery behaves normally and has a normal drain rate, but when it reaches 40% more or less it drains massively and drops to 10 % (more or less, could be 11% or 9%. It is not something precise and accurate) and screen immediately starts to flicker, backlight as well, then the signal is lost and phone shuts down. After that i can not turn it on unless i charge it.
I have looked a lot and pretty much all of the forums recommended to buy a new battery. I bought another battery (original) and the problem still continued. I've also tried swapping batteries with a friend, but the problem still happened to me and not to him. Also I have tried a lot of Roms, I've tried going back to stock as well, but still nothing.
Currently I'm running Cyanogenmod 10.1 RC2 because it gives me the best battery life in those 60%.
I leave you an attachment of a screenshot. As you can see battery percent dropped a lot at the end, and i wasn't using it heavily.
Thank you in advance.
It is a hardware issue, I had the same problem (battery would drain below 10% though), sent it to Samsung, Motherboard and Charge Socket got replaced, I don't know which one was causing it because I had other issues like broken home button too.

May be there would be some hardware related problem. But why dont you give a try to to a wakelock detector app like betterbattery stats or wakelock detector? Atleast you will know which app is eating your battery or is it a hardware related problem.

I have tried a lot of battery related apps. BBS is one if them. I haven't seen anything unsual. In fact I've also tried apps like greenify. However battery life in the first 60% of battery is actually good. After 40% comes the problem.

No matter how many forums and threads there is no solution to be found for this massive battery drainage. stock rom vs poison with greenify, underclock, tweaks, lower brightness, other mods, and the battery is exactly THE SAME in both. Draining massivly. I have 60% now, 2 minutes ago when I was browsing in mozzila I had 66%. Also draining when screen off. I kept using the battery with same patterns for a lot of days, adaptive charging doesn't seem to help.. Any solution??
Go back to stock with fastboot and see how it goes.
There's probably a much more convoluted solution out there but it would probably be too much hassle.

Hi guys. Sorry for slow reply. I have tried going back to stock rom and other different roms. No difference. You see the weird part is that the battery lasts the same no matter what you do, stamina mode? same. Nothing running on background ? same. New thing happened: After the poison 7 rom in battery settings ann option "battery care" appeared. I turned it on to see what it does. Only after some weeks it decided to pop up when I plugged my phone to charge. It said something like "Battery Care active. Your phone will be fully charged in 5 p.m Tuesday (example) while it is still Monday 3 p.m. Should I listen to battery care and leave the phone plugged in for 1 day or not? (no matter if it reaches 100%).
This is a bit irrelevant but I am asking just in case: Is your phone too charging very fast ? I have the basic charger (not the fast charge) and I believe my phone is being charged a bit too fast

Me too i have the normal charger included in the box and it takes about 2 hours from 20ish to 90ish % if i plug it to a usb 3.0 port it takes about 1:30hr to charge from about the same
Battery Care is a nice app if you charge your phone overnight.It limits the duration of your battery charged to 100% by charging rapidly to 90% until a half hour or so before you wake up. To do so it needs to learn your charging habits first. Supposedly this prolongs your battery life. Attached an example. You can see it charges rapidly as well.

I see. Thanks for the info. I will try it if just saying. IF it can fix my battery problem. Probably it has nothing to do with it though

I agree it is unrelated. Since your battery problem seems independent on the rom, a few options are left: a rogue app that you always install, something related to your Google account, or a hardware problem.

Go back to stock with fastboot and see how it goes.
There's probably a much more convoluted solution out there but it would probably be too much hassle.

Is it worth it to try going back to stock again and also unrooting? Or relocking the bootloader? I thought of an app but the only thing that it could really be are the google services , the play store. Messenger doesnt seem to drain much and makes a minimal difference, and with the app we mentioned above I didn't find absolutely anything draining the battery apart from screen and OS (it could also be more than normal)
I did all the trip concept-stock-concept and it seems it is an app right now I'm getting almost the day through and have 20ish of battery, it was easier in my case because I didn't unlocked bootloader or rooted, so might try a full clean reinstall to your phone

I'm currently also having massive battery drain(6% an hour) I tried stock rom, Posion rom and concept rom, sadly all with the same result. I use grenify & fordoze but somehow my phone wont 'doze'/go into deep sleep. I installed better battery stats to check out the problem. On a normal day(one charge) the sumery of better batter stats look like this:
deep sleep 7 hours / awake(screen off) 5.5 hours / screen on 1.5 hours
when i look to kernel wakelocks there is one that is always on top of the list:
bluesleep 5.2 hours 243 wakelocks
Also under alarms there is a suspect:
com.google.android.gms: 864 alarms 1/min
So there are some strange things happening on my phone... really wondering if you got the same wakelocks/alarms as I do
I use greenify and HEBF. Same story here, it seems like nothing changes with battery life. Crazy, only 1,5 hours? My average now is 3. I haven't checked the drainage when screen is off but I did notice similar drains to yours. I think we're in the same boat. I will tell you about the wakelocks, haven't looked into that yet

I've just received my phone for just one day. Backup my TA partition, unlock bootloader and use rootkernel tool to root my devices. I'm using the .331 version stock ROM. Just then I installed the ElementalX app on play store, and surprisingly found that the cpu frequency statistics show that the phone is always on the max freq. So I changed the cpu governor to interactive governor. Haven't test battery time yet. Hope you know this issue, if you have the same problem.

I'm wondering if you've check the cpu freq statistics. See my post above. If that's the common issue, than the stock rom maybe has trouble dealing with the cpu governor problem.

Any news guys? Is your battery better when lowering frequecies ? I have also tried lowering them but no change

Actually I'm not lowering frequencies, I use EX Kernel Manager to tune the interactive governor according to this post
https://forum.xda-developers.com/nexus-5x/general/guide-advanced-interactive-governor-t3269557
After tuning the governor, it's about 4 hours SOT. Still not good compare to my Xperia Z3, but much better than before(about 2hr SOT)

Well it's not perfect yet but switching off scanning for bluetooth and wifi helped me a lot(under location settings) Also L Speed & Greenify are helping.
Still looking for a way to turn off fast dormancy.
