[Q] battery gone from 72% to 5% in 30sec -lagging- - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey everyone
I got little problem here
So here is the situation it had happen 3 times this weak to me
When am using my phone (RR3 or facebook...) it freeze or lagged sometime,
That is natural to happen sometime
But in those 10 days when it lag it freeze for 30 sec/ 1 min
Then it restarts, but when it’s restarted the battery is gone, from 72% to 5% in, how is that possible ???? (pic 1)
And if I don’t put it in charge immediately it will just turn off after minutes!
_Still when I put it in charge and after like 20 min in charge I noticed that had already reached 80% just like if it had not started charging from 5% but from 60% !!! (pic 2)
_And sometime without any freeze or lag, it just turn off after showing that the battery is low 20%
So what is that?? A system / Hardware / or battery life problem??
I have this phone GS2 from 3 year now, and I’m using it like a geek

You could have a bad battery. When it drops to 5%, pull the battery before it fully boots. Wait 10 seconds, and put it back in, and then turn back on. Should help with the battery level indicator

when i said its lagging, i didn't' mean that it lag all time, it lag just in google chrome or RR3 in like 1 from 5
and lagging it doesn't the problem here (cause its normal to lag in some app by all the UPdate and other stuff )
my problem is way when it restart the battery is crushed to the floor
and thanks everyone for the help :laugh: i really appreciate :good:

if battery is crushed then it may be a software issue same soln flash stock and check

Reset fuel gauche chip in stweaks. (only if you have siyah, gustavo or dorimanx kernel, or any other kernel that supports stweaks)

what battery are you using the original 1650, the 2000 extended?

Yes that's what I was just thinking about, considering that the life of the battery is normal if everything works fine. Well now I'm thinking that all what i need is to update from 4.0.2 to 4.2.2
So is there anyone like a best version of Android

Buddy, you haven't seen the real part of Android yet. Considering your battery issue, remove the battery and simply touch it in the middle. If the battery is swollen or bloated, then you need a new battery (3 years of usage make your battery weaker and subject to faster draining due to deformation of the cells inside the battery). In no doubt, Samsung's Touchwiz is THE main cause of lagging and drain, so here are my suggestions on ROMs that can fix your problem:
1- For 2.3 GB ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 7.2.0 with siyah kernel 2.6 (google the kernel name to find it or ask me for a link just in case)
2- For 4.0 ICS ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 9 stable on get.cm and go for Siyah 5.0.1 stable for more hardware customizing.
3- For 4.1 JB ROMs. well, you can grab CyanogenMod 10 or SlimBean 4.1 old release for the I9100 but I recommend skipping this version of Android (it's too boring)
4- For 4.2 JB ROMs, try Cyanogenmod 10.1.3 stable. if you love Touchwiz and want a stock experience, try Revolution Rom UX build 2 which is too close to an official 4.2 stock update. When it comes to me, SuperNexus 2.0 is the best 4.2.2 ROM I ever used. Flash Dorimanx 9.43 stable to get more out of your device just in case buddy.
5- For 4.3 JB ROMs, go for CyanogenMod 10.2, or SlimBean 4.3 build 2.2 stable (too awesome), or PAC-MAN ROM, or Carbon, Cyanfox...
6- For 4.4 KK ROMs, try out Cyanogenmod 11.0 nightlies or sanpshots, or go for OmniRom 4.4, or Cyanfox 4.4, or SlimKat, BeanStalk...
It's your choice, and I would recommend installing Dorimanx Kernel above the ROM you choose in order to configure your CPU clock speed and processor governers according to your kind of usage. Good luck :good:

dude there a lot of choice here and all of themes look great, i feel like i'm in a pizza hut order :silly:
still i think that am going for this one: 4.4 KK ROMs, Cyanogenmod 11.0 ... it look like the best one for me :fingers-crossed:
so can you make another favorite and show a link to it

Always happy to help fellow users
Well, the thing is CyanogenMod is no no doubt the best, but as for the 11.0 version, no full stable ROM is out there (at least not the tag), but sure-thing it is stable and getting better through every nightly. To get the daily nightlies which are somewhat experimental and buggy, visit get.cm/?device=i9100 and everything is there.
The nearest or at least more stable version of CyanogenMod 11 is the snapshot release (labeled "M") and it's there too. In case your Internet speed ain't too fast, download it through this torrent file I did (It's CyanogenMod 11 M4): http://burnbit.com/download/280529/cm_11_20140308_SNAPSHOT_M4_i9100_zip
Happy flashing :fingers-crossed:

What to choose android 2.3.6 or 4.0.4?

I have tried the litening rom and omega ( 4.0.3 ) and got many bugs together with battery drain. On the litening it was huge batery drain on the Omega i got the poor signal connection ( change the modems doesnt help ). Now i think to go back to the CheckROM 2.3.6. Will it be better on battery drain and speed?
I think you should give more ICS roms a shot, such as Hydra's ICS rom, Wanamlite ICS (if you prefer the stock rom feel, its stable and smooth).
I would say the ICS rom experience has certainly been better than the GB ones.
Battery drain is most likely caused by rogue apps, you should check whether its your apps that are draining the battery or the rom itself. Otherwise, everyone else would be experiencing it if they used the roms.
I'm using "Thebyani" and find its just as fast and the same on battery as any GB ROM I tried. However, I do like some of the niceties of ICS!
I usually stay on CM9. However I love the Sammy ICS but there is one problem that always occurs...Whether it would be in one hour of installing the rom or 2 weeks. Now here is the problem. It will suddenly stay at 1200mhz for like 5 minutes and really drain the battery and then go back to normal. I don't really like this and I don't know how to fix it. I've already tried every ICS rom that is based on Sammy but still nothing works. Otherwise in my opinion the Sammy rom is a lot more smooth and powerful than the CM9.
I am tempted to try the MIUI roms

maybe you could try flashing speedmod kernel? seems to me its a kernel problem
This turns to be personal opinion. Try other roms out and make that decision yourself. Locked.

[Q] 4.2 AOSP ROM with decent battery life ?

I've been a long time fan of Cyanogemod and being able to get rid of touchwiz has always been a must . However, lately every cm10.1 nightly I try has terrible battery life . Having factory reset and flashed multiple AOSP ROM's I am yet to find one that doesn't have it's battery consumed by Android OS.
I have seen that many others are also having problems with battery life , however some people are reporting results much better than mine.
Has anyone found a 4.2 AOSP rom that can last a day and that they would say is usable as a daily driver ?
I use the latest stable version of rootbox Rom with the latest siyah kernel. The battery life of the rom with the stock cm kernel wasn't that good in itself but the siyah kernel seems to have made a pretty big difference. If you like cm you can still use this kernel. It has options to further save battery life with undervolting but haven't tried that yet.

[Q] Battery drain when it's less than 40%

Hi. I'm having a big problem with my Galaxy SII GT-I9100. It works normally till the battery percentage gets 40%. After that the phone starts to slow down, screen starts blinking, signal gets lost and at last it turns off. All these happen in a few seconds' time. These are what I did:
1.Changed battery 2 times
2.Calibrated battery with 3-4 apps from play market
3.Wiped everything that's possible. Tried using NeatROM, Revolution , Carbon roms.
4.Took phone to master and realized that he knows less than me.
After all these procedures anything has changed. Please help me solving this problem.
Back to stock to test, still problems ? Replace USB board/port; KeithRoss39 has a guide in General that has all the info you need in order to easily do this yourself (it's not stickied, search for 'replace USB charger board' or similar).
My battery was like that, but I did not have any other problem except battery drain when battery reaches %35, %40. It was draining very fast compared to %80 or %70. First, I bought a fake oem battery, but I thought it was original, seller deceived me, it was worse than dead original battery. Than I bought a real original one and problem is solved. Be careful about those oem ones.

Hello,
In order to exactly help you, I advise you to post your currently used firmware (stock Samsung Gingerbread, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jellybean), or if you're using custom OS (CyanogenMod, SlimRom, CyanFox, OmniRom... etc) but anyway, I'll try and help as much as possible. When I had my phone upgraded to stock 4.1.2, I had smooth performance and good battery life. However, after a while, the OS becomes laggy and I get a lot of overheating when the phone should simply go to deepsleep. Simply, I realized that the battery wasn't the problem, but rather, Samsung's TouchWiz was causing the problem. Having owned my phone for a year and 6 months, I get terrific battery life yet through using DorimanX Kernel which can customize your hardware settings to match your kind of usage. Using official SlimKat 3.0 Stable on Dorimanx 10.43v88, I can ger up to 4 days of battery with slight usage even when using Android Run-time. I would rather change the phone's OS instead of buying batteries in your case since changing the stock battery is only optimal in case the battery is bloated (becomes swelled/thickens in the middle). Good luck

I'm currently using Revolution ROM UX 2014 Build 2 Android 4.1.2. It has touchwiz interface, but I've also used Carbon Android 4.3 ROM which had this problem too. I don't believe Dorimanx kernel will fix this problem, but if you're sure about it, I can try.

It took me 5 months to realize that. After 3 months battery was not performing well at all and I understood that something is wrong with the battery. I looked very close to it, but it was still seeming like a original one. I put the original one and the fake one side to side, and I saw the difference. There are some small differences. You have to realize by yourself, because there are a lot of fake batteries.

If you're not sure on how to configure your CPU settings in STweaks, you wouldn't realize any difference, but I can help you with that. One day, I was an ordinary Android user on stock 4.0.4 and rooted my device just to get a game work better using a custom kernel (Siyah btw), and when I realized I could tweak CPU clock speeds and edit some values, I realized that Sammy ROMs are too crappy. At the end, that's what power saving option does,limits your CPU clock speed but still not too cool Anyway, no harm in grabbing a kernel and flashing but after reading your post again, it seems your battery is "hard-luck" one, better buy a new one if you really are facing issues unrelated to software

s2: drain problem!

ho to all i've bought an used s2 that has a problem with the battery. it drains very fast, even with al services disabled. i've bought a brand new samsung battery and also a non original battery with more mha, but the phone discharges always very fast. i'v try to recalibrate the battery with no results...i've last cyanogen rom on it
try change ROM or kernel
Wich rom and kernel do you suggest me
My suggestion:
1. check your battery stats and google fixes to apps that drain ur battery
2. install greenify
3. install custom roms, my suggestion: slimsaber + dorimanx
Whats dorimanx

Dorimanx is a kernel, not a rom.
I ve seen that slimsaber is like a beta not a stable version righe?

Hi, I have got very same problem! I spent like last two years with trying different ROMs. I tried CM, Omega, NeatROM,... but never found one ROM which will not drain battery so quickly...
My girlfriend has got Alcatel OT6010 which has got similar specs as S2 and her phone lasts for 4 days! if she is not on internet all the time. Mine with new extended battery, lasts maximum 2 days max. I am really dissapointed about that
Therefore I would like to ask someone whether he/she can recommend some stable (not alpha or beta) ROM with Android 4.1 or above. Different Kernel is also welcome.
I am looking forward for any help on this!

Since you've tested many roms already, the problem could be caused by old circuitry on the phone. My phone last for 2 days max without using it too, although choosing the right kernel for you could slightly increase battery life (e.g dorimanx or apolo). In terms of stability, cyanogenmod is never perfect, don't use slimsaber, neat rom was quite stable for me, paranoid android was ok, never tried cyan fox, PAC rom isn't going to be updated for a while and is nightlies only, carbon rom is nightlies only. So yeah, just go with neat rom or paranoid android (stable)or cm11 (and wait for next snapshot).
Can i use paranoid with dorimanx?
I haven't had any problems so far with slim saber.
Have you tried the app 'Greenify' yet? It can hibernate apps that drain battery in background.
Another suggestion: Tasker app
Create profiles that for example turn on / off mobile data.
2 days battery life, that's epic for the s2..I get 1 day max at the mo ...and never had much more on any ROM/kernal
phantomEVO said:

Click to expand...

Yeah you can. You just need to check what version of dorimanx you install.
There is one for ics/jelly bean and one for kitkat.
And depending on what version of s2 you have you need to check what rom you install. Not sure if dorimanx is available for i9100g
By the way in terms of battery drainage I faced the same problem.
For me it had several causes:
1. My mobile connection wasn't very good and therefore my phone got hot while searching good signal - I flashed a new modem to improve connection... If this won't help a new provider is needed I guess
2. Too many apps running in the background - as already said in a post above greenify will help there a lot as it prevents app from starting without you wanting it
3. Also I installed a new kernel - I'm using dorimanx too. It's battery profile can help a lot
4. Pure performances x (Zeno edition) my phone got a lot faster after flashing this. Also it drains less battery when being idle.
Hope this can help you.

[Q] Battery or ROM fault?

Hi,
I have a rooted Galaxy S2 with CM11, Aug 8, 2014 build, with the original kernel (3.0.64-CM-g89e6992). For a while, I had excellent battery life, everything worked fine. But recently my phone would shut down before reaching 0%, at around 5-7-9. And when I turn it back on with the charger plugged in, it starts on a higher percentage. Before shutting down the screen flickers, and then suddenly it either freezes completely and I have to remove the battery or just shuts down. If I use the phone while charging, it would take ages to gain 1%*, and I have heavy battery drain.
My question is, is it because of the battery getting old or it is a ROM failure? Apart from denying certain options that seemed to drain battery in Privacy Guard I did not change anything that would require to get deeper into the system. Wifi is usually on, but location, sync or anything that could have heavy battery use is off.
Thank you for your answers!
*I'm not entirely sure, but I think the same happens if I charge it in flight mode.

Firstly, that is a really old build. There have been important fixes since then such as FPBug fix, and play services wakelock fixes which would be worth it on their own to flash a recent nightly(that is if you want to stay on cm11). I would have a guess and say the battery drain is probably a wakelock issue; using better battery stats or similar would tell you more. I wouldn't rule out the battery coming to the end of it's life either or even a usb port that needs looking at.
First thing I would do is transfer any data you want to keep to an sd card or computer and do a full wipe and flash a newer rom that is still being developed, such as cm11 nightlies or a sabermod version by @Markox89. If the issues persist, I would then look at replacing the battery, and then check the usb port. It may help to install the stock rom and re-root from there too.

Wow, thank you!! Which one would you prefer, cm11 nightly or a sabermod version? Also, are nightlies stable enough for everyday use? And what else should I consider ("that is if you want to stay on cm11")? Sorry for all the questions, I'm fairly new to the rooting scene..

Forget the "nightly" tag, the days of nightlies being unstable are gone(for the most part). The main difference between the cm11 nightlies and @Markox89 's builds is Markox uses sabermod toolchain to compile which makes the rom run a little bit smoother and a little bit more battery efficient. Otherwise they are the same. Read the last month or so of posts for more info HERE
Other roms to consider - it depends on what you want, stability vs newer lollipop builds; basic streamlined rom vs heaps of features.... I like small, fast roms vs the bells and whistles and I would have no hesitation recommending slimsaber kitkat by @fusionjack, but it's up to your own preferences -
For Slimsaber 4.4.4
For S2 Development thread for most of the roms being developed right now
