I can not charge my S3 with black samsung charger, the device loads very slowly, 2% every 15 minutes.
Using Googy-Max Kernel 1.7.5 the device never charges the battery.
In the previous version of the kernel with "- Charge: Implement charge control (unstable and ignore charge) & Stweaks Power tab." I deactivated the option "ignore power unstable" and everything worked perfectly (the battery charges in 1 hour), now that this option was removed the battery takes over 4 hours to fully charge ..
Can anyone help me?
samsung charging cables are low quality. you can try a better cable and charger. if this does not work you can try using the stock kernel . if you still cant charge try returning to stock . stock rom +stock recovery + stock kernel. If this does not help than it may be hardware related and you may have to send it for service center repair.

Guys, I m having a serious problem from the last week ... whenever i charge my galaxy s 2 ... all it does is get heated up ... but not even one percent of the battery gets charged .. but it charges only wen i switch off the mobile
i m on android 2.3.6
baseband version DDKL1
PLS HELP !
Try to recalibrate your battery using recovery menu or 3rd party app from the market.
I'd also recommend upgrading to 4.0.3 via Kies.
are you trying to recharge it with usb or mains?
First thing; don't try and 'calibrate' your battery using any app, the recovery menu or any voodoo crap you might read on here. It's just not possible. It's a nonsense. Best you can do is charge the battery to 100%, remove it for a minute, put it back in the phone & enjoy so far as that is concerned.
Waza is on the right path. If that's happening when it's connected to charger, you probably have a problem with the battery in all likelihood (or maybe even the charging circuitry). I'd get a new battery & see how that goes in the first instance, if it does end up being something 'worse' (USB/charging circuitry), at worst you'll have a spare battery for when you get it repaired & at best you'll fix the problem.
As Waza alluded, if it's happening on USB charge, that's not necessarily unusual if you're using the phone - whatever you're doing with the phone is using more juice than the rate of charge, also the phone will tend to get hot if you do anything more than light use while it's on either AC or USB charge.
i have upgraded it to 4.0.3
and i m looking forward for the battery life ...
and yes it happens with both mains and usb
anyways ty guyz
Ok recently i have noticed that sometimes when my phone is plugged in to charge it wont actually charge although the battery has the lightning sign indicating its charging..
example .. two mins ago it was charging on 83% looked again 2 mins late it 80% when it works it works fine , but when it doesn't it can take about 8/9 hours to charge or it will get to say 40% i'll use the phone to update facebook and it will go down 2 or 3 %
also something else that has not happend before but has recently is when i plug phone it betterbattery stats shows a box with dumpsys or sysdump any suggestions
any suggestions
checkrom 5.5 , xxdli2 modem , stock kernel
thanks
I have the same problem
I also had the same problem but I flashed the ARHD JB with siyah 1.6.8 kernel and changed the AC CHARGING to 1200 from stweaks and now my phone charges to 100% from less than 10% in 3 to 4 hours
I have a similar problem but I think my S3 is simply broken. It used to charge fine, now it charges slowly and discharges rapidly. Replacing the battery and doing a complete wipe did not help. More interestingly, I noticed it even discharges when completely turned off, which I consider proof that it must be a hardware issue.
What USB cable are you using?
It seems the phone won't charge when cheap cables are used. Only fancy ones and the ones supplied by Samsung/HTC/Nokia.
I tried 8 cables in total
I'm using all official cables

Naturally, this is more serious than I thought...

I have since started using a charger I brought from a market and it works perfect. Go back to the original one and it plays up again

Maybe the charger or just the cable may be faulty so you need to check first.
Second, if you are turning off wifi from the toggle, then try turning it off from the settings manually. If you think this is related to the ROM, then you can ask in the relevant thread for assistance.

How do i reset my battery and deep charge ?
1. Slow charging is because bad charger (if you have root and for example Boeffla kernel, you can force fast charge).
2. Wifi always on is because you have set in wifi -> advanced ->always allow searching for accurate location.
The names of path and settings are probably wrong, because i have Czech language, so i dont know how it is called in English.
Solution:
1. buy new charger
2. turn off searching wifi for location purposes.
Before buying a new charger altogether, you can just test what happens if you try to charge it via usb port, you should have a microsd cable lying around somewhere. USB ports only give 500mA but it should still charge in a few hours.
If it still doesnt charge, it might be either the charger module in the phone or the battery. I had a faulty microusb input in my old i9100, it prolonged charging hours.
charge to 100%，open rootexploer ，find /data/system/ba tterystats.bin,delet it,never charge it until it drains completely。
Switched chargers and now it charges in 3 hours...
Since you're on Boeffla Kernel, you can download and use "Boeffla-Config" and increase the AC charging current from 1100 mA to a higher number and turning off Ignore Unstable Power and Ignore Safety Margin.
And increase USB charging current from 475 to 500 mA this will provide you with faster charging speeds.
P.S Increasing USB Charge Current To anything beyond 500 mA has no effect on USB 2.0 ports since these ports provide only 500 mA output current no more.
So i just played with Custom ROMs to find the best for me...
But from one point my Phone f*cked up the battery detecting...
CM9 and CM9 detect the battery at 45% and then he Level instantly just drop to 0%...
I cant even restart my phone, so i guess the battery really went out...
So how can i fix, that the ROM would not detect it 45% but 3-4% ?
And let me fully chage my phone ?
Stock rom Always Detect it 100% and then randonly the phone shut down in random times (cuz it drops the level to 0%)
I've tried the "Fully-Charge, Fully-Discharge" But the ROM still detect the Battery wrong...
Even tried to delete the battery stats...
Any solution, or idea ?
I currently use CM with the built-in CM9 kernel...
I think its battery problem.use a new battery.ur prblm will be solved

How old is the battery? What charging cable are you using and what is the cable plugged into?
If the battery is more then a year old it could be 'tired' and not holding a charge correctly (trying another known good battery in your phone will determine this, as will trying your battery in another phone, and if it works well you may have more issues to deal with). If you got the phone second hand, you have no way of knowing the battery's history. Repeated overcharging is also not recommended, as well as leaving the battery in very hot places as it can damage the onboard circuitry in the battery.
Cheap aftermarket (non OEM) USB cables are not that great imo, they are generally not as well made and soon get loose connections, resulting in poor connectivity (charging with a bad cable can also damage the battery). Always use the original cable or a good quality aftermarket one, like Belkin.
Charging the phone from a USB port on a PC or laptop (and/or via a USB hub) is not as efficient as charging it directly from a wall mains USB adapter, because the power often gets interrupted. Ideally for the best charge you should turn the phone off and use a wall/mains socket USB lead, so as give a direct, constant, power supply to charge a battery. A typical full charge is done in two hours. If you charge this way and the battery still has issues buy a new one.

First of all, the Phone is manufactured in 11W41 (2011 Week #41) and the battery in 11W39 (2011 Week #39)
I use a tipical Micro USB charger which does not connect to the wall with USB but the cable directly integrated into the adapter...
And the phone's shipped official cable to charge throught my PC...
The battery worked fine before i forgot to delete battery stats and flashed a ROM...
After that, all ROM is getting fake battery data...
After using my phone i noticed:
-When the phone displays 70-80% charge, the battery actually have 10-15%
-When the battery reach 0% the phone not just jumps to 0% but the Phone shut down within a half second (as no more energy)
-When i charge it to 3-4% the phone show 80% again...
-So i can charge it to about 10 or max 15% when the OS detect 100% and does not charge it further more, which prevent me from properly re-calibrate the battery stats, cuz 10-15 will be always the max charge of the battery...
Now i'm looking for some kind of Mod / App that fake the Battery level to the OS (for example lock it to 5% and the OS continue to charge the battery) i know its dangerious cuz if i'm not aware i'll overcharge it and it will die permanently, but i have no better idea ATM...
Update: Sometimes after my phone dies from no remaining electron in the battery It displays 5% charge when i switch it on while connected to a charger (the only way i can switch it on) And starts to increase.. (5-6-7-8 etc..)
But sometimes it instantly jumps up to 70-80% if i think right when the screen switches of..
So i enabled "No-screen-off-whili-on-charger" and letit charging..
Will notice you about the result...

try reflash stock.ics ftf should fix this
Already tried, the Stock rom always showed 100% charge, and when the battery ran out, just powered off...
(Jumped from 100 to 0 instantly)
As i mentioned, in the reply you quoted, today it started charging from 0...
It went good, but somewhy, it just stopped at 26% and not a single volt went into the Battery...
As i Pulled out the Cable, the indicator jumped to 100 instantly...
Can you link several stock ROMs ?
I've tried with the 4.0.4 Android
but maybe the 2.3 can still work with it...

but i think theres some HW damage. even if not rhe battery maybe some config chip is broken or whatever on the board. normally flashing a stock.ics.ftf resloves all software issues, as its resets all stuff to factory..
anyway, here u can find links to other android versions: http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Andro...y-Bean-ICS-Ice-Cream-Sandwich-and/td-p/154389

One solution still, that my frind has the same phone as me, so when i meet him, he can charge my battery to really full and maybe when i insert it to my phone it might work...
My S3 with a custom ROM and kernel doesn't charging. Today suddenly I realized charge level was decreasing even it is on charge. I tried everything an even bought a new battery. When Phone is on the charge in battery status it says it is charging but in boeffla kernel config app it ssys there is no charging connected. It is so weird. Battery level is decreasing even it is on charge. What should be the problem? suddenly broken charge port or kernel issue? how can I fix this? By the way I was using fast charge with boeffla kernel. at 1350 mAh.
First of all flash the stock rom via odin.
Then download this app from here to see if it is charging good: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.abmantis.galaxychargingcurrent.free&hl=ro
If the reference is 1000 it is charging normally.
If not it may be a charger problem or usb port problem
