Hello everyone,
Here I have a Lenovo P780 which was not booting up, after days of torture, it decided to get flashed and turn on. Now it (seems to) drains charge, turns off, after 2-4 hours of rest, I turn it on andmagically it has over 90% charge. This happened at least 4 times a day... If it is not the battery to blame, is it fixable? Any thoughts?

Hi,
First of all o tried to serch something like that all day and didn't found, so, if anyone knows a topic about it with anwsers or some website, pls post it and close the topic.
So, yesterday i took my x10 with 67% battery and connected to the PC to charge and gone to sleep. I use a desktop and it was on all the time. But like 5 hours later, my phone was powered off and completely drained. It only flashed the red light 3 times when i tried to power up. So i connected again to the same computer without touching the pc. It started to blink the flash light for a while, then the light turned green. I waited a little and tried to turn it on. Again, it blinked 3 times and nothing. Connected again and some time later, the charging battery icon appeared, and it started to charge again, and i powered it on normally, and my battery was at 1%.
Even it got no recharge at all, with 67% on standby, my phone lasts almost 3 days, so only 2 options left: The pc is draining it, what i think its nonsense, since it never drain battery from nothing i connect, or theres a bug on the mod, or its a problem on the phone itself.
It's not the first time it happens, but never happen when i used the Miui mod or stock mod. Happen about 5 times already, only on cm mod.
What i already did:
- Reseted the battery stats when it was 100%, drained it until it turned off alone, charged again.
No more ideas.
I noticed something like that too few days ago..
Usually, when I want to charge it from a computer, I turn all the radio (wifi, 3G, sync, etc..) and let the phone charge and its working fine.
Don't know the reason though.
When your computer goes into sleep mode the phone doesnt charge anymore but its not supposed to eat 67% of battery neither ....
Sent From My X10!
I was using Wolfbreak's ROM (v007) up until two days ago, and one of my biggest complaints was poor battery performance. Not sure if it's the ROM or the baseband (52), but when I was at work my battery would drain stupid-fast (100% to dead in 5-6 hours). Part of that I think was that I get poor reception in my office (typically around 99 dBa), but the battery didn't drain that poorly using the old FreeX10 ROM.
I'm now running Jerpelea's CM7.0.3, but still on BB52. So far battery use seems about the same as with Wolfbreak's, but I'm still trying to optimize my battery stats.
Ive used the last few versions of trips roms and on v008 now..battery drain is the only issue ive pretty consistently had with them. Im on bb54..
*wouldnt necessarily call it excessive tho*

hi,
I recently change from rom IC stock to JB stock (Spain). Every thing is fine except after working with phone for some time & battery used up to 25%, suddenlly the signal drops & phone shuts down. I cannot turn on the phone unless I plug in the charger where my battery is 0%. Also after flashing to JB, I wiped the data in recovery.
Phone is NOT root & battery is brand new.
Thanx

Did you create this topic immediately after putting it on charge or did you at least wait a hour or 2?

Yes, I know what happened you said so in your first post, My point was have you left it charging yet, for an hour or 2 and then tried to boot?

Actually I had the same problem with my old battery. I was advised to change the battery; with the brand new one, I left it charge fully to 100% for 6 hours as per instruction, then turn the phone on as the aforementioned problem occurred again. Again put it on charge for couple of hours to 100% charge then reboot the phone. Right now every thing looks Ok but I am worried why it happened with the new battery. is it the rom or the phone?
I have a note 1 N7000, and each time the screen began flickering and after that it shut down. This got worse after flashing a cyanogenmod rom. By plugging in the charger the battery seemed empty, but wasn't. After a while the battery indicator used to show charged 70 % or more. Put the charger cable off and the situation repeated after a short time of usage. Last night it started turning off at boot and wouldn't turn on unless on charge. I flashed a original JB rom since the problem doesn't happen when on recovery/download mode. but now it does it even when connected on charge.
HELP

Bump?
I am using TS+ for about a week.
But I noticed that the battery life is too short.
I used only about 5~10 minutes screen on.
I set wifi on, cellular on, bluetooth off and disabled the sync of gmail.
TS+ only last about 16hr, just suddenly shutdown with battery status displayed 79%.
When I charge the TS+, it shows battery is 0%, and starts to charge from 0%.
Is this normal?
The battery is totally dead(0%) when I unboxed TS+.
I thought phone should still have battery around 50%, when they first arrived.
My OG TS got days of use and weeks of standby but had the same battery bug. Come to think of it, every MTK6572 based smartwatch I've seen has the exact same bug. I guess MTK and the various brands never bothered to fix it.

I have the exact same problem with my TS+. I hope a firmware update can fix it
I tried to use only phone stand by (no 3G data, no wifi, no bluetooth).
My TS+ last for 5 days and 6 hours.
I get service from Qlink. They sent me a refurb as all their phones are refurb, Sprint Samsung Galaxy S2. It came with 8 or 4gb and a 1400 battery or something. A much smaller battery then the retail phone.
Ever since I got it, it won't hold a charge. I don't remember if this started right after I got it because it took me a long time to notice it won't hold a charge. I'd charge it and when I would shut off the phone and try to turn it on a few days later it wouldn't boot. I'd have to charge it for hrs before it'd even boot. When I shut off phone it would always have over 70% battery. Then I notice it says connect to charger even though it is.
Then all of a sudden it stopped charging. I have a 4 port smart charger and cable that has no problems with my other android phone which is an unlocked Moto X Pure or my iPhone 6s Plus.
I ordered from Amazon a sprint galaxy s2 battery. Got it. Plug in and charge many hrs. Turn on. Battery shows about 93%. Turn off phone. Les then two hrs later I turn it on and lost 4% charge to 6%. That doesn't seem right. Turn off phone. Next day phone won't turn on. Hold power and vol down says no battery power. Leave it charge for hrs. Won't turn on. Finally it turns on. I notice battery going down 1% every 10 minutes or less. Not right. Just sitting there.
Then I notice it looses battery % even while charging. % went down. Now when I try to charge it don't work. It powers on by itself. Says connect charger. Shuts off. While later it powers on again and keeps repeating this every so often.
Also when it was on once, it opened calendar even with me not touching it. It would like open it and go to home screen by itself. This after a factory reset.
Now it won't charge. Just does the above turn on then off every so often.
I am clueless what's going on. I wonder if I must get another phone which cost $25. They send anything. All used crap non hd phones. Qlink is a lifeline program thing.
Install android n, of that doesn't entirely solve it, get an unofficial high capacity battery.
Found the original charger and cable. Now when I charge you see the big battery with dots under it when the phone is off. So that's good. Why don't you see this with other chargers?
Battery now seems to work and hold the charge. I don't get it.
I don't think the phone can update to any newer then what's on it now. It's 4.something. Nothing of 5.0 when you check for updates. I think the phone is too weak for 5 at good performance but I don't know.

I think he meant installing a custom ROM. There's currently one Cyanogenm... Lineage OS 14.1 for the Galaxy S2. It is based on Android 7.1. If you are curious, check out this link: https://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=68771297
Nice to hear that your problem seems to be solved! I am a little bit surprised, as I often used different chargers without problems.
Why won't it hold the charge long?
With official cable and charger and batter it came with from lifeline program it looses full battery while powered off in like 3 days. And gone from 94% to 87% in less then 30 minutes.
What's going on?
Then one week it'll be fine.
Me too, i have the same problem too , and I'm charging my phone almost 4 times in a day
