Hello
I have a problem. When my S3 reaches under 20% battery, the screen start flickering, i lose the network and the phone closes. When i open the phone again my battery is at 30-40% without charging him, the screen flicks again and the phone closes as i described you. When i connect the charging cable, the phone starts to charge from 0%.
It isn't the battery foul because i change my battery with my father s3 battery which works fine and i have the same problem .
I have installed on my phone this custom ROM : http://forum.xda-developers.com/galaxy-s3/development/rom-qs-i9300-kk-t2755841
Please help me !
Happens to me too, I think it's the S3 being faulty. I had it sent to the service 3 times too, always got the problem not too long after.
My advice: Never buy a Samsung again, ever.

I will try to explain my problem clearly and in a concise manner.
My battery started giving problem since a few days back.That time I had ICS in my phone.
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.
If i turn it on,it shows battery to be 0 or 1%.Then i used to set it on charging,and it used to work normally and battery starts getting charged from 1%.
On the other hand,if instead of turning up the phone and charging again,when i used to plug the charger in without turning on phone, my phone shows the correct battery percentage.And it starts charging normally.
To summarise-
My phone having enough battery gets shutdown in the middle of nowhere.If my phone gets off on 70% automatically,and if i plug the charger keeping the mobile off,it starts charging from 70%.But if I turn on the mobile and plug the charger,it starts charging from 0%
So this thing worked for a few days.After that my phone started turning off quite frequently.And I had to plug the charger everytime it turns off so as to turn it on again.
A couple of days back,I flashed cyanogenmod JB and siyah kernel.Since then it has been worse.
Now phone doesnt even last a minute even after full charging.It just shuts down as soon as I turn it on.I tried clearing battery stats.
I am unable to use my phone,its next to a dead phone.Please help !
What should I do to save my phone?
maybe its time to replace battery...

Are you sure battery needs to be replaced?
One more thing, after flashing JB, the battery percentage doesnt fluctuate as before.
It gets off at say 70%, and then it doesnt matter if i charge it keeping phone on or off,the charging starts at 70%.
Its just that the phone gets off for no reason as soon as it is turned on.
There is an app on market called My Battery Status, you can check your battery health with it.

Replace the battery
I got my motherboard changed a few days ago by samsung. Now i am facing a problem with my battery stats. My phone shows only 15% battery even if it is fully charged [Shows 100% after fully charged, but as soon as I remove the charger it again shows 15%] and when i use my phone it drains normally but problem is that after decreasing battery by 15% it automatically switch off.
When I restart the phone, it again shows 15% battery. so this cycle keeps going on till the battery fully drains.
This is the weirdest problem I have seen.
So any one who can help me please give your valuable time to resolve this type of problem.
Thank you.
P.S. I've tried factory reset, Battery calibration, and even flashed the stock rom again via odin.

The problem is with the board, you cant always assure the quality of the board the fix and its compatibility, if u are under warranty, service centre is the best option, first report this issue to samsung and then directly go to service centre and talk with the centre manager, not the mudheads on the reception.
Hello,
I have Samsung Galaxy S3, rooted, running on CyanogenMod 11 M12 Snapshot (cm-11-20141115-SNAPSHOT-M12-i9300) and i have two main problems.
1) Firstly, I have a problem with battery. My battery is charging and discharging very fast. I had this problem also on TouchWiz, but I thought this was a problem with system. Now my phone is charging really quickly (40% in 15 min) and discharging in about 4 h of using. I tried calibrating the battery by charging it to 100%, then I restarted my phone to check is it alright and it was, so i calibrated it with a Battery Calibration app from Google Play. Then I used Fast Discharge (as recommended) and I checked to use processor. After 5% of battery (95%) my phones screen turned white, there were weird sounds (like old TV without signal) and then it restarted. Battery was 25%. Now I'm charging it again, unfortunately it's again charging so quick.
Is it a problem with my phone or battery? My phone still on warranty, so I can make full fix from this forum and give it to Samsung.
2) I also have a problem with speaker. When using my phone I can hear weird sounds from it (like above - like old TV without signal). What to do? Can You help me?
Please, help me

Check if you have a swollen battery
try a replacement battery, the weird sounds and screen issues could be from the battery not supplying enough current/voltage to the phone, hence also an issue why it cant calibrate well
Okay so , Yesterday night when i was using my phone it was on 15% and suddenly screen starts flickering like crazy and suddenly shut downs.
I try to charge it again but after reboot it stayed to 0% even after hours of charging so i rebooted it again and in Custom recovery (Apollo 5.1 regular) it shows 100% battery so i rebooted it again and removed the charging and after 10 minutes it started again dropping like crazy from 100% to 58% and constantly dropping until it switches off itself.
Now it's again on charging it and AGAIN it shows 0% charging and no matter how much time it'll be on charging it will be 0% and after a reboot it'll show 100% and this cycle continues .
It seems like it never shows original charged battery percentage.
1) I have already tried wide data factory reset and flashing the same ROM again still no help.
2) There is no software problem i could think of as phone is functioning fluid enough it's just battery issue.
3) It happened 11-12 months before also and the motherboard got dead suddenly and i have to get it replaced i wish if again it's not an hardware issue which come suddenly .
Rom- CM 10.1.3 (4.2.2) official last stable build
Current kernel- CM default
Meanwhile I'll be checking the phone by using Neat ROM and changing battery
THIS problem is very common to many galaxy s2 users and still there is METHOD or SOLUTION provided which is very surprising even after so many users with this problem.
Could any one help me , this is literally frustrating.
EDIT- Now the scene is ,even on NEATROM(Jellybean 4.1.2) it constantly start draining until 0% and shuts off itself ,like i do nothing while after pitting off from the charger when it shows 100% just like a progress bar it runs backward from 100% to 0% . DAMN , Help me.

Could be a faulty battery. Try changing to a new one
It sounds like the rom is the culprit. Try to calibrate the battery with the Battery Calibration app from playstore otherwise, install a different rom.

hello guys, i am using htc amaze 4g stock ICS tmobile
From last 2 months i am facing a problem
When i charge my phone it takes 7-8 hours approx to charge to 100% , sometimes it doesnt even charges to 100%,
I thought may be its a battery issue so i changed my battery, but still the problem persists + another thing battery discharges from 100% to 75 in less than 10 minutes & after 75 %battery the phone gets switched off suddenly & if i try to switch it on it shows random battery charge of 67 4% or anything like that randomly, if i restart it again the battery life boosts up or goes down even more, i hav to keep my charger attached all the time to use my phone, i cannot go to HTC SERVICE center as phone is not launched in india
The battery i am using is from htc only same model, as i bought it from ebay
It works fine if i use the phone on charger
Bt on battery it shuts down anytime
I want to give my phone to a local repair so i wanted to ask you guys, what would be the probable issue with the phone
I have tried calibrating the battery too
Bt no help with that also
I have heard that such kind of issues come with charging IC too
Thanks in advance for the help
