Just now 100% charging is completed and got the Beep but after unplugging the charger it showed 96% this is the 5th time I am getting like this..Any idea how to fix it? thought it is FW bug and changed to KI8 from KI3 still same
EDIT: Now I am rooted and did wipe battery stats still same problem
Do you have CWM? My battery went mad two days ago. All I needed to do was clearing the battery stats via CWM.

Even more interesting. If you phone freezes and you need to do a cold reboot (hold power until reboot) the battery level can drop like 20 or even up to 50% at a time. (it then slowly increases by itself).

Helped increase my battery life, others with the same problem as you said it worked too, good luck!

I don't know if the stock recovery has this option, so you should check it. If it doesn't, you could consider rooting your phone.
It worked for me, after my battery went crazy. It dropped from 100% down to 86% in 5 seconds. And when I checked the stats in the menu, I saw three lines if which one made an upside down looping. The first moment I was like "wtf?".
But if you don't want to, you should go have your phone repaired/replaced.

Ón my side it worked only with this steps:
1. Charge over night
2. run the app battery calibrator
3. unplug charger
4. drain battery all the way down till it shuts off
In this way yout phone can remember what is 100 % and what is 0%
PS: You need root permissions
I have asked Samsung Support on twitter about my problem they said: The device is fully charged, however, this is done to prevent overcharging which stresses the battery.

Hi guys,
Is anyone having battery drain issues with their new sgs3's?
With my one it wouldn't last 12 hours without dying. Also if its at 100% it'll drop to 70% overnight while i sleep (6-7 hours) and thats with power saver on, sync off and running juicedefender.
Today I factory reset the phone and only installed flash, whatsapp and dolphin browser. Have wifi on, sync, data, gps and bluetooth off. Havent got pictures of battery stats yet since I only reset it half an hour ago.
So is anyone else experiencing battery drain? if so have you fixed it? and how?
Are there any apps I should be aware of that drain the battery?
I would remove juice defender.
Uninstall lightflow app if you are using it.
Use betterbstterystats to identify any wakelocks. The xda thread of the same name will be able to help with solutions.
Other than that follow general tips on increasing battery life that are found all over xda.
This device is easily capable of much better battery life than you are getting.
Good luck.

No issues at all so far, in my case. In fact this is the first Android phone I've owned that has no battery-related issues
Based on my previous experience what you can try doing is (a) install CPU Spy to see if your phone is entering 'deep sleep' appropriately (b) install BetterBatteryStats to identify offending applications.
Even the 'Battery' section in settings is useful -- just check if any apps are keeping the phone awake for longer than you've actually used them ('Stay Awake' number).
ok well ive installed bad ass battery monitor since its free. Also since I did factory restore i charged it to full and in 1 hour 44 mins it used 7% on idle. Going to charge it to full again and use it normally to see how it is.
Only apps ive installed is XDA, badd ass battery, dolphin browser and whatsapp.
maybe you have samsung widgets etc set to refresh every hour or shorter. Or could be Whatapp

That's after the factory reset. Before I had a more stuff installed.
Right now it's been about 3.5 hours and I'm at 74% with light use.

That's definitely not right. Perhaps you have a dodgy battery? Can you find an app that measures the batteries mha. I use battery monitor pro. I will post a screenshot for comparison.

Just woke up and about to start work (Australia time). Ive taken a bunch of screenshots from stock battery monitor and from bad ass battery monitor. Will post up when I get home.
Also I installed battery monitor pro but it wont let me select 2100mAh. when I put it 2100mAh and press ok it just goes back to 1500mAh. Battery is currently at 36%.

Make a search for BetterBatteryStats in xda, install, learn how to use it and identify the cause of the drain

Just a guess bit that might indicate that your unit has been shipped with a dodgy battery. I would get it tested and replaced.

Not too happy with my battery either. Fully charged over night and its down to 89% 1hr 30 later. Is that normal? However, you did mention lightflow earlier though which I have installed - Is that a massive battery drain? My battery stats seem to show display as being the big culprit but I have brightness set to it lowest setting.
Also, can't seem to find battery monitor pro on play?

It's wifi, don't use it in sleep mode. There's a bug with it right now that keeps it awake.

I'm on Omega V4.0 and with wifi always on, fully charged 3 hours back and when i woke up it's 95% remaining. So about 1.66% loss per hour in sleep mode. With regular usage and installing and testing different roms and backing up etc them i easily get about 8~10 hours. Phone's made in Korea and battery mfg date is 2012.5.6.
Plus tons of widgets on home screens.
This is what happened...
yesterday at 7:00 AM my phone was at 98% Battery
Only Flight mod and Power saver mod was enabled,
Every thing else was disabled
Then i left home without taking my phone ( It was on my bed i forgot to take)
Later i returned home at 2:00 PM
And found my phone very hot.
Now the battery is at 14%
It says 88% of Battery was used for Android OS
Then i turned off my phone
After some time heat went off...
Then i turned on and plugged in for Charging
It Took 4 hours to charge 24% :crying::crying::crying::crying::crying:
Can anyone please explain whats happening ???
It sounds like something is keeping the cpu running, which is why android is is so high and explain the battery loss and heat. You could go into your settings and look at the running apps in applications manager, and see if anything is out of the ordinary.

Could be something like mediascanner scanning the sdcard if you hve one. GSAM and BBS are good apps to check wakelocks. The latter is better but it's a pay for app.

1. what rom are you using? 2. slow charging may be due to cable. change the cable and check the result. :good:
Remove new installed apps, check cable, restart your phone...

I'm On I9300XXUFME7 – Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean leaked firmware

The best app IMHO is BetterBattery Stats. It's not free though, but it's a great asset. I have the widget on my home screen at all times. If you're not in a position to pay for an app, try GSAM, but BBS IS better. This will only be good until you pull the battery though so you need to ensure you check before rebooting. It will show you which apps are keeping the phone awake etc.

Does your phone gets over heated during the charging time ?
Have you tried another cable for charging ?

Yep. Best way to get good stats is to charge the phone full, unplug it and go about your business. Try not to reboot. At the end of the day lets see those stats and what we can find out.
Here is the list of apps on my Phone...
I don't have many apps...:angel:
I have Flashed my phone just a week ago..
And I haven't got time to restore all my apps again..
So, this is all the apps that i pretty much use now...

Try cycling your battery (fully drain then fully charge several times) and if you're rooted try calibrating it using an app from the Play store.

I had the same issue and its not the phone it is the rom version 4.2.2
I believe even s4 users are reporting the same.
My advice till google fix this is to disable sync when it is not needed as it looks like google service is the reason for this issue
Alternatively, try to install wakelock detector from google play. Look into cpu wakelocks and see what is occuping much time.

Just flash p765 v20c and wipe everything it will work fine...
And about flashing or rooting everything works fine on p765 rom dont need p760 rom for flashing or anything else..
If u do minimal customisation just flash stock and it will be good to go...
