ROM: 12.1-20150816-UNOFFICIAL-i9300
Kernel: Boeffla-Kernel-4.0-alpha11-CM12.1-NG-i9300-20150817 with Boeffla Config V2
My problem started when i changed the battery.
First was original samsung battery.
Now is this: QOLTEC i9300 3.7V 3100mAh
After replace battery my phone itself restarts (full restart). After 3 hours looking on him i counted 9 restarts.

hm problems started wth new battery so I suggest you use another battery...
try to use your old battery again, if the problem persists.
if yes your new battery is faulty and you should look for a more qualitative replacement.

You sure u dint mess up with Boeffla Kernel Settings? Mine restarts if i Undervolt or overclock the CPU too much.

Problem solved. Reflash rom and kernel with full format.

X10 shuts down when battery level is under 20%

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
Sent from my X10i using XDA Premium App
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?

[Q] X-File with my battery

Hello guys,
I'm a little bit desperate with my battery. One month ago I updated from ICS to JB in my s2 i9100 and the horrible loop started:
- Between 100-70% of charge everything is going more or less ok
- Suddenly, phone turns off. After restarting, the battery is around 40% and very unstable
- Now it's even worse, without charger, the phone remains up only 15-20 minutes.
I tried EVERYTHING:
- All the roms for JB (all versions of RR, Paranoid Android) with all the combination of Kernels (CM10, Siyah and Dorimanx)
- Go back to ICS (of course, for every ROM I give to the phone 2-3 days to stabilise it)
- Battery calibration tools of the play store (even I paid 3$ for one of them)
- Battery calibration without being ROOT (the trick of this thread did not work. I tried 3 times)
- Reset fuel gauge chip from the ex-Tweaks
...
Any other idea/clue?
I'm about to give up, I think I'm going to get a new battery. I prefer to pay 15-20$ than spending hours trying to figure it out.
The last question. I'm assuming that a brand new battery will fix this problem. Am I right? I'm afraid of buying a new battery and facing the same issue.
If I get a new one I am supposed to do some operation on the phone before to install it?
Currently I'm using RR 3.1.1 with dorimanx kernel.
Thank you very much in advance!*
You guys do an AWESOME job with this forum.
How is your battery now? Did you try to remove it for a while? Did you test to wipe battery stats in recovery?

My battery SUCKS now. If I'm using the telephone in a normal way (surfing, music, videos)... it goes down every 30 minutes.
I'm going to try to remove for a while right now. You mean, minutes, hours, days?
Yes, I tried to wipe battery stats from recovery with no results.
Thank YOU very much for your interest
just remove it 2-3 min but i don't think it will be better. Can you tell me how is it after. Thanks.

Try RootBox 3.0 with dorimanx 7.4. I've been using it since it came out with no problems.
If you're worried about battery try better battery stats to check the wakelocks and cpu spy to see if your device is deep sleeping

[Q] Battery Issue

My battery percentage is showing me 2% or less all the time even if I am charging my mobile for the whole day... I faced this problem after changing charging through USB connection to 900 mAH via Boeffla Config. V2 and I was running Boeffla Kernel V5 as it was working fine with me on Yank555's kernel... I a lot of thing but nothing worked with me, I used reset.zip for Boeffla Config. V2 app... I calibrated battery more than once... I flashed another kernels after wiping cache and dalvik cache... I installed new ROMs after full wipe and full format but the problem still exist... Now I am working with NeatROM Lite and Chinese repacked kernel and the problem is still with me ... Any fast help plzzz, It is very urgent to me.
I did full wipe and format and downgraded to Omega 4.2 and back to 4.3 but the problem still the same.. I kept the phone in the charger from the night till the morning and it reached 60% I think ... It is not about the cable or the battery as I tried both of them on another device and they worked well... Any ideas !?
Same issue as many previous posts, rules say search and read before creating a new thread.
Replace your charger, lead and battery. Flash to full stock rom and factory reset. If still the same then you need a new motherboard

Man, It is not about battery drain... It is about not charging.. When I plug the charger and w8, I see the percentage of the battery is going down not up.. I tried full wipe and format and calibrating battery "But I can't do it on 100% as I can't recharge it" and nothing worked with me.
My dad died the day before yesterday and I am not in the mood for the phone at all but it is important for everyone as u all know guys "RIP Dad"

[Q] White lines on screen: battery error or more?

Hi there,
For several days bothers me a big problem on my Galaxy S3. At low battery levels, usually about 15%, but sometimes at 40% or even on 95%, come when I play games (edit: happened in Chrome and some other apps) white lines on the screen. The bars are significantly more after a few seconds and then denied me the network connection, so no Internet and no connection. When I play over Wi-Fi, it flickers more and more and my phone restarts. The only thing I can do is to charge, then it doesn't happen. My first guess was the battery, I will then also exchange times. Which reminds me two apps have invaded that there might possibly be with the blame: Tasker (edit: uninstalling didn't help) and Lucky Patcher. My question would be: Can be caused by these apps these problems? Is it just the battery? Or is there something else broken, so I have to replace my phone completely?
My phone: Samsung Galaxy S3 (GT-I9300) with CyanogenMod11, Xposed, Busybox.
I hope someone can help me!

PS: sry for my English, it's from a translator...
First flash stock firmware with Odin and test again. If still the same then you have a hardware fault, probably motherboard.
I tried stock, didn't help. I ordered a new battery, then ill see. But i think its the battery because it bloated to twice the width...

I confirm it's the battery. I've seen S3s do this and normally they will start to flicker at 50% battery and restart. After the restart they show 0-5% battery.
