[Solved] Battery % indicator stuck. - Xperia Z5 Compact Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
I was using my phone as tether (usb).
I unplug my phone And some times later it shutdown showing 0% battery's boot screen. I know that was wrong.
So I plug in phone, reboot And immediatly see that phone show 20% charge. After 2 hours, phone remain at 20%
I use it all the Day And battery's indicator don't drop.
Battery stamina is the same as before.
Apps see it as "good"
I try to reflash previous And stock rom, Wipe dalvik And data.
Nothing change.
Phone remain with full life battery but at 20 %
So I don't know the real %
And I don't know if Quick charge drop or not. This May be dangerous.
Any idea / solution ?
Thanks to read

Try this,
Open up the phone app, and type *#*#7378423#*#* . You will get into the service menu. Go into Service Info -> Factory Charging. What % do you get?

Required level 50%
Present level 20%
Factory charging unfinished
Please connect the charger ( or Factory charging is going on, Please. Wait)

how many sony telemtery services do you have disabled? diagnostics: sonymobile.devicemonitor and sonymobile.phoneusage give info to sonymobile.support and also to What's New and Lounge... when I had disabled permissions for support, i couldn't see any usage data until i opened Whats New and Lounge permission to storage and phone... this was when I was experimenting which apps i could disable without root and not cause the settings menu to crash
another thing to try is [Power + Vol Up] cache clear

When you flashed the Stock ROM again, did you leave (if you got one) the custom kernel on?
I would strongly suggest you completely flash the device anew with flashtool including the kernel.sin, even temporarily locking the bootloader. If it's still stuck then it's not a software problem and the battery controller might be wonky.

Yes I leave the custom kernel.
I had add a new battery, and all works fine now.
so I think this is the battery's controler that is dead .

_____________________________________________
Some especifications:
As long as the tab is Off, the battery/charger/led indicator work perfectly.
-When the charger is connected, the led light responses and turns red or green depending on the battery.
-The battery charges well. takes many hours to uncharge the tablet in use when you have reached the green light when uncharged.
When the tablet is ON:
-Since the second animation upon booting, the led light turns off if connected to power(not on if charges is not connected anyway)
-Battery meter always shows 0%
-If connected, the rom detects it and says that it is connected, but no response from the led light or the meter itself(it doesnt gets the battery metter full, just gets it as 0% but connected)
-Not even clockwork mod gets the led light on when connected. I am starting to really worry

Success. I had to open the tablet, plug and unplug the battery supply and when i booted, the battery meter starter working. Any ideas on what the problem was?
Let the battery completely drain and then reset the battery stats using CWM...Nevermind, I see you already tried that
ill try again because it seems to be what everyone is doing to solve similar problems; XD, but i have already tried once.
Thanks for the quick answer.
Any other recomendations...?
probably titanium back up + flash something else (try gingerbread experimentalist + vegan tested beta 2 (kernel) )
then restore your apps with titanium
ok, i tried the complete battery drain again, no success.

I have tried the format utility, back to stock, vegan 5.11, and gingerbred experimentals+vengan tested 2 beta(kernel). No use.
I am really greatfull for the comments, but does someone else has any more ideas I can try??, I dont know, an ADB command or a APX script? I ma starting to get a little worried
***********Bump***********
I am getting desperate. It is really something very annoying, but most annoying is that i find no solution to it.
anyone please help...
I would say take it back to stock.
Battery meter shows that means its not completely done.
I would go back to your OEM Firmware.
http://www.thegalaxytabforum.com/index.php?/topic/112-samsung-galaxy-tab-firmware-list/
this is a complete list, just make sure you use the right .pit.
you could also try another countries variant to see if you at least can get it working.

What exactly did you do to have this problem as well?
I tried calkulins Rom and then went back to vegan 5.1.1....does your charging light turn on when the tab is powered on? Mine only charges when I shut down

i am not relly sure if it charges when connected when it is on. BTW; do you came from calkulin 1.1 too? I thought i would be because the battery saver script or something like that.
I have a questions for any developer or anyone that knows this kind of stuff, when the g tab is turned on, does the led light depends on the battery percentage or do they work apart?
I have the same problem from the moment of the first switching-on of the device.
From some time my device doesn't charge the battery even when it is off. Now the device doesn't work with the battery generally.

0% at first boot
I just got my G Tab today, and when I first booted it, it just stayed at 0%. left it on/off, didn't matter. always showed "Charging 0%". I let it do the OTA update to 3588 hoping it would fix it. Afterwards it still said 0%, but I just turned off the screen for about 10 minutes. Came back and it showed 2%. After that it charged just fine, then I flashed TNT lite on it. I'm not sure what caused it to work, but hopefully this will help one of you with the same issue.
left off the screen in what build, was it connected to a power supply?
it was the official TNT stock build 3588. It was plugged in, cause if I unplugged it it would instantly shut itself off. I didn't run any custom roms until it was able to charge properly.

Battery Problem

i everyone, i have 2 original batteries, one with 1660mAh and the other 1650Mha and one extended bought from dealextreme with 3500Mha. All of them gives me the same problem. When they reach 50% discharge the phone starts to present problems.
1st - Mobile network/data disapear
2nd - phone turns off randonly
3rd - When it restarts charge info shows from 1% to 23% and baseband unknown
4th - With the phone off, i plug the outlet charger and it shows 50%+ with all batteries.
With the normal batteries, its almost impossible to make the phone work without plug in to the outlet and leave it for 10 min off before turn it on.
With the extended i just need to reboot and it works fine, but the charge info shows low charge, less than 20% and as time goes by (if the phone stays with the screen of) this info starts to raise to 25%, 30% and tops 38%.
I'm using only the extended one because its the only one that gives me no baseband unknown after restart.
I already used battery calibration app, clear battery stats via CWM and gets nothing solved.
I tried many ROMS and kernels, and so far the only config that is working fine without baseband unknown all the time is:
Android version:2.3.6
ROM: CriskeloROM Gingerbread v34
Kernel: [email protected] #52
Compilation #: GINGERBREAD.XWKK5
Baseband Version: I9100XXKG6
Theme version: BlackBlue by JaiGlisséChef
All of this is the default installation from this ROM .
My data plan is 10gb/month, so i let data on all the time.
This extended give me all day long work time with the phone instead of 4 to 6 hours with the originals.
I've tried discharge to 0% and then recharge to 100% but the problem persists.
Please help me or i will have to throw this phone away.
thx.
Looks like multiple rom flashing syndrom.
Flash to stock return to service centre .

You are kidding right ?!?! Isn`t there any other way to resolve this ? Why a phone that has an unlocked bootloader presents such bad behavior.
Even if i reinstall the stock rom wouldn`t resolve this ?
That sound like a hardware issue more than anything, I would flash back to your stock rom/kernel/baseband, reset the counter with a jig and use your original battery and see what happens.
If the problem is still there I would contact samsung and see what they say (Dont tell them about all the rom flashing, just say it started happening)

MRFS is when a user has not got a clue as to what is what and problem has not been solved .
Logic says that 3 battery's problem requires battery tested on clean phone with a stock rom . Solution is not to flash yet another rom kernel or whatever .
You have asked for help take it or leave it .
jje
I installed an stock rom downloaded from that thread here in xda with many stock roms. I chose the latest with the following:
Android Version: 2.3.4
Baseband: I9100UHKI1
Kernel: Replaced original with C.F.Root for KI2 (KI1 was not available) just to get root
Compilation #: GINGERBREAD.UHKI1
I did it yesterday just after the i was suggested to revert it to stock.
Using extended battery charged to 100% and ran battery calibration. I'll try later with the original to see what happens.
So far all of my software problems were solved.
Now, what are the chances of everything stays this way if i flash only once the rom i want and stops.
Thx.
Problem Solved.
What worked for me was installing an stock rom and recharge to 100% with the phone off then applying root and a new rom.
Start system to check its working and doing recharge cycles till the battery is dead.
I've read on another post which i don't remember now that doing this 2 or 3 times could fix the problem.
My salvation.

Help needed

I'am having xperia mini pro ( mango ). Several weeks I was using FXP's CM 7.2, later decided to try LegacyXperia's CM 10.1, Installed it perfectly. Later that day noticed my battery drains very fast.. like 1 percent per 2~4 minutes. Thought to go back to CM 7.2, reflashed back succesfuly and the bug apeared.. I charged my phone to 100 percents, disconnected charger and battery drained to 0 per few seconds, phone turned off, tryed to turn on, but only red light keeps blinking. Connected to charger again, turned phone on, it says "charged" and 100 percent, but after disconnecting charger it dies again, can be my battery damaged or something? Tryed to wipe battery stats and clean phone under battery, nothing helps yet, any suggestions?

Try flashing your stock firmware with Flashtool. See if things are okay. If so, flash Rage kernel for CM7 (using command and not flashtool) and then install CM7. Rage kernel gets the best battery life in my opinion. Note that there are two Rage kernels. One for stock firmware and another for CM.

Could be a number of things causing your problem...I would suggest making sure you are on stock rom and kernel and install one of these apps >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.asksven.betterbatterystats << PAID or >> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.gsamlabs.bbm << FREE. You can monitor your phone to see if any app is draining your battery ( would give it at least 24hrs to test) then if it is a app you can uninstall or delete that app.
It sounds like to me it could be battery or hardware problem especially with you returning to stock and also discharging while plugged in..

Then you need to return to stock to see if the problem is still there if it is then most probably hardware issue.

Give it a try it nothing to lose and (don't forget to backup your data) use a battery stats software after you have reset.If the problem is still there and its not any apps that are causing you problems flash to stock to be 100% sure it's not software....

[Q] Continuous reboot on Xperia logo

Hello,
My Xperia Mini started to reboot continuously and the only way to stop it is to remove battery. I think this have something common with battery, because after this happened battery charges very slow (about 5% per hour) but when I plug the charge cable it works fine.
I tryed to flash another rom and kernel but this doesn't helped.
Before that happened it was another issue, when I was turning on the phone battery sometimes was showing 100% (after restart it was fine).
I have unlocked bootloader and root.
When this reboots started I was staying under the sun, can it be caused by overheat? Does anybody know how to solve this problem?
Thanks.
This continuous reboot is called bootloop. You may have installed an incompatible mod before or well, something just happened. This should not have anything in common with battery. Reflash your choice of rom then wipe dalvik cache. If still doesn't work, wipe data.

I already flashed another rom with kernel (inlcusive stock) and wiped dalvik cache, also made a hard reset and formatted the flash card but still no luck . I think is caused by bad battery becase when is plugged it works fine, it's like battery doesn't charge anymore (it doesn't get warm) and always shows 100%. I will try to replace it and say the result.
