hi,
my phone is Xperia Mini Pro (SK17i), recently i've unlocked the BL and begin installing some custom roms. my first custom rom is Super JB v6 with nAa kernel, it worked flawlessly, but strange, if the battery still has 15% or bit lower, it suddenly down to 1%! and my phone goes off less than 1 minutes later.
i think it has rom/kernel problem, so i changed to some roms & kernels, from flawless ICS, xNXT until now im using MIUI Life. bad luck, it GETTING WORSE! now if my phone still has 80% battery life, it goes 1%!. i think its battery problem, but after 80% to 1% shutted down, i turned on again, and going to CWM recovery. i'm doing nothing here unless to keep my screen on for checking if it actually battery problem, it should shut down for a seconds. but i've waiting until about an half hour, my phone still ON.
WTF is the problem? is my phone really bricked?
P.S. clearing battery stats don't works, and i believe that was just myth.
any answer will be appreciated. thanks
Reflash to Stock FTF and then flash a ROM ...Try being on Stock ROM for a few days IMO and check if it persists ...Get a new battery and check it ...It more looks like a faulty sensor imo ...
Am I right?
Is it possible (if unlocked propertly) to brick phone? I had never briked... But had mano bootloops and etc... But after flashing everything right all problems are solved. Am I missing something?

It's very possible to brick device but it's pretty damn difficult to do it !!

Don't be sad just is a lesson
This is chance for you buy new phone

Hello, I managed to install the actual CM6 on my X10i(flashed to .58), but now I have the battery drain Problem... lost 20% in 40 minutes... :S
Flashed it actually down to .54, doesn't look much better...
yes, I did read this advice:

If anyone is having any issues i suggest you try this!

, but here's my problem... I have no plan, how to reinstall the OS, google and Forum search did not help... tried SEUS, tells me, I have the actual software and does nothing more...
so, I would be really thankfull, if someone could post a noob-friendly tutorial for this...
When you connect to SEUS, once it detects the phone, it will notify you about your current OS and it will also give you the option to reinstall the OS, which will result in the loss of all your apps. You will also lose root. So you'll have to do that again.
But before you do anything, give the ROM some time to settle down. Many people on wolf's ROM have observed better battery life after its been allowed to discharge a couple of times.
It has also been said that the .58 basebrand could have possible quick battery drain.
Had this issue too, the only way I found to resolve it was to start from scratch; i.e. back up, re-flash from seus, root and so on. Works a treat, though it's a pain...

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't is just easier to go to xrecovery, factory reset, wipe all stats and caches and reinstall the ROM. Is there any advantage to reflashing 2.1 first?
Tried just re-flash, no joy; still high battery drainage. I've found that in a few roms, if you re-flash the same one you get issues...!

yeah, debranded to .54 yesterday, first seemed to be the same, but now, 7 hours without recharge, 59% left, listened a bit to music, did some installations and some short calls in this time... so, it's close to the unmodified performance and not critical anymore... gues, with the cracked bootloader we will get an update soon, with no more problems like this
My battery is fine and I used. 54 BASEBAND. I SUGGEST FLASHING THAY BASEBAND ON. And you should have no problems. I have had my phone off charge for 6 hours now and I have been on the phone, listened to music, watched a few video's and been on XDA app and my battery has only dropped 31% so mine is fine. Hope it works and if not PM me and I will see what I can do

hey, i just wrote, that I also debranded to .54.. and see, mine: 40% in 7 hours, yours 30% in 6 hours... thanks for the help anyway
I'll keep this for some time, maybe it all will be fixed soon...
Xrecovery
I flashed the stock rom, rooted an everything else. When I try to boot into Xrecovery, I can't. I tried reinstalling Xrecovery, but it wouldn't take. Anybody have any ideas? I want to put Wolf's rom back on my phone, but I am stuck in stock 2.1 right now.

you will have to manually place those xrecovery files in the respective folders using root explorer. Thats the only way to make it work.
Take them from the SD card and put them in system/bin?
Edit: I got it now. Thanks for your help!
What busybox is installed on your phone. Is it v1.8 or higher if not you need to install that again using busybox installer if that fails then you will need to do what the last post says. Hope this helps.

It could be that you have a similar chipset that my x10 came with.
these are usually defunct and should have the mother board swapped by SE.
Trust me when they sold the x10 alot of damaged motherboards made it on the market.
Pathetic battery life or restarts are symptoms of these crappy boards.
Just wanted to ask...i read that wolfbreak rom battery life will get better if u use it for a couple of days..i wanted to ask do we still to do the wipe battery stat in xrec and discharge and charge the phone a couple of time or just let the system running...i ussualy charge my phone at night witout switching the phone off..is this ok..previously on 4.5 rom,the battery was great...
well,.. I actually just let the system run and I still have great battery life...but usually it's best to discharge the battery a couple of times...
Try wiping battery stats
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
already wipe the battery stats a couple of time...well..i just need to wait a couple of days and see how its work...now i try to discharge and charge the battery...
today,i charged my phone for 5 hours after discharging the battery to 1% last night...then,after plug out the cable,i turn on the phone and my phone fully charge..then,i wipe the batt stat using xrec and restart my phone...after restarting,my battery indicate 1%....why is this happening...try to wipe again,the same thing happen...then,i decided to recharge while the phone is on..after 20 minutes of charging,my battery rise to 79%..what does this mean?
You mean discharge and recharge fully a few times....
hey,
I've a problem: When the battery of my X10 is under 20%, the phone shuts down automatically. When I start the phone again, it works till the next shut down. (this can take 5 minutes or 2 hours. Its different)
When I use the phone without turning it in standby, I can use it till the battery complete empty.
Is anything defect, or is it normal?
rom: WB V6 on stock kernel, but with stock rom, it was the same.
sorry for my language, I'm from germany
greeting, Tobi
Have u used battery monitor widget to get that it always shutting down at 20% , mine does it at 40% . Mines fine if im using it but if its in standby . . . Shutdown ... I then switch it on and says I got 20-35 battery and phone charges very fast back up to 100 . I think my battery is buggered which is what I think is wrong with yours. I could recommending a temp fix of freezing it battery overnight then charging for like 8 hours . Sometimes helps ..

Hi mate
I don't know what you mean by accu(I understand you meant battery level?) It sounds like one of the old kernels they were making, are you sure you are on stock kernel?
You could try flashing another rom on a ftf file with flashtool.. but try to charge phone when its off.let me know.

yes I mean battery level. I've only flashed wb roms. Bevore, I only used stock se rom, so I must have the stock kernel. In settings is written: 2.6.29-00054-g5f01537 SEMCU .........
Do you mean only charge when phone is off could be the solution? I will try it...

yes I used a widget, so I saw the battery level. 20% was an example, I remember I had the problem between 20% and 30%, too! But the most time its when battery is under 20%
What do you mean with temp fix of freezing it?
I think I had the problem since I've the phone. So you think my battery is defect?
So you also had this Problem with the SE rom? If not, try to wipe the battery stats with xrecovery before flashing a new rom
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
I definitely heard this issue on old roms so make sure you flash the latest patches updates for that rom and follow well the installation procedure(factory reset,wiping cache,dalvik,bat stats)
If after charging the phone (offline) it does not charge, try to flash a ftf firmware with flashtool.
I have this too on all Roms but it starts at 35 and keeps doing it until 0, bad calibrated battery i think. Had this on 2.1 once and it was gone without me doing anything, weird Battery.
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
can we use a working/optimized batterystats.bin to fix this problem?
as the topic says.
Yes I had the problem with stock SE rom too.
I already tried battery stats with xrec, but same problem.
I've also the newest updates for my rom ( wolf v6). Do you think I should try it with another kernel? Now I have stock.
Or I flash my rom & kernel again..
and can someone say me how to calibrate my battery correctly?
thanks
Same thing here with stock kernel...now i'm th kernel and team rom and it's ok

I still have the problem..
I remember I flashed zuzu's kernel for root. Is this the problem?
What do you think is the best kernel for me atm? I dont need any overclocking options.
Hope it will go with other kernel..
Sent from my X10i using XDA App
try using TH kernel its smooth and has excellent battery life !!
https://market.android.com/details?...xLDEsImNvbS5uZW1hLmJhdHRlcnljYWxpYnJhdGlvbiJd try out this app i use it though xD.
problem solved!
I first tried to flash doomkernel + wolf6... still had the problem.
Then I flashed TH Kernel + Rom and let my phone go off, because of empty battery.
Since I did this, I dont have the problem!
thanks for help!
btw: The problem was not solved with the new rom..
1 week ago, I bought a new battery and now my phone doesn't shut down all the time
-> my battery is defect
I am currently in discussion with 3 UK and they have informed me that the fault is because of a faulty glue joint, which they claim is my fault for dropping the handset. I am wondered how many people are actually having this issue, and what network you are on?
Hey guys!
I know some thread has been created about the hot Galaxy S II issues, but I have a different experience.
The first time I flashed my phone to ICS, my phone was really hot, and that was really unusual when I used GB before. I was sick of my battery was draining, and my phone was hot, I switched back to GB Checkrom, and guess what? The phone was still hot.
First I thought I could be the rom, but I tried different kernel to see how it is going on when I had ICS, thereafter I switched back to Checkrom GB, and I used NEAK kernel, which I had good experiement, but my phone was still to damn hot, and I reflashed second try, which was Siyah Kernel. Still to hot, now I'm using SLIM ICS, and my phone is hot! What is going on??? Have I been flashing to much, and damaged my hardware or something?
When I'm taking a phone call, or browsing a bit on the net, or even listening to music, charging or standby, still too hot! Any ideas how to reduce the temperature of my phone?
Thanks!
Did you allow the phone to have a few complete battery recharging cycles after each time you flashed another rom? Mine gets hotter right after a new Rom is flashed, after few cycles goes back to normal.

1: hope you wiped when you went from GB to ICS and again when ICS to GB
2: change your modem, or better do a full wipe and flash a stock GB ROM.

Yup I was like u asking questions here about HEATING effect of SGS2.. But let me explain u wy i got back... When I bought my phone last month 13th I couldn tolerate unrooted phone.. So rooted and installed a custom ROM... U wont believe me while calling i couldnt hold it on EAR! It was that hot... Even if my young bro plays a game or watches a movie it used to get burn like hell..
1. I tried Siyah Kernel My phone was HOT!!(NO hard feelings for Siyah )
2. I tried Fluxi Kernel viola heating effect gone!! But still the phone used to heat up after 20 minutes of continous usage. I mean heavy usage like 3G...
3. Finally tried KI4 modem now the real action started no heat even after heavy usage!!
Dont know whether these things might work on ur phone(In theory must work ) But keep trying different kernel and modems till u come to know this heat is tolearable before that

The problem started probably when i rooted my phone on stock rom(miui 10), the very next day i cleaned every thing (including my firmware accidentally) to flash custom rom, then after flashing i found out that none of the hardware components are working and i posted a thread about it and as per the answers i flashed a latest chinese firmware for redmi note 4.And it worked except i started noticing an awfully bad battery backup(hadn't noticed before as all this happened in just 2 days. (as a matter of fact the battery went down 5% as i wrote this, oh 6 now!)

You answered your whole thread yourself, just flash stock frimware, then flash AEX like flashing any normal ROM.
I have the same problem, the battery die after 1h screen, when the battery Is on 20% the device shutdown,help me pls, i have rr with franco kernel.
hi OP. base on what you are describing, it looks like your battery is dying... nothing to do with the OS. be careful 'cause chinese batterys (like 70%) turn out to be real sh*t (on my own experiance). consider to replace battery from a confiable retailer or change device.
