Hi all, when booting into twrp from system, battery instantly drop 10% or so. Boot back into system it'll stay at the lowered percentage and last an hour before starting to drop again. Tried a few different combinations or ROMS and Twrp still the same, wipe cache, dalvik, data, system each time. Any thoughts or comments? Thanks.

I've tried 2.4 and that didn't boot so i used sbf and then tried 2.3 but that did the same thing! whats wrong?
Why don't you try 3.0?
here are the steps I take
1. stock sbf
2. install bootstrap
3. in bootstrap, mounts, format sd-internal
4. flash zip
5. reboot
Thanks
Thanks for the quick reply will try and respond
After the sbf finishes do a factory reset w/ data wipe (it's important). After it boots go through the steps for root, unlock, cwm ( if you need any of them).
I am rooted/unlocked and this is my process when flashing.
Boot into cwm
Wipe /data, /system, /cache, and /davlik-cache
Format /data, /system, /cache, and /davlik-cache
Install zip from sd
Wipe and format as above
Factory reset
Power off. At this time I charge to 100%.
Boot into cwm
Factory reset again
Reboot
After it boots up this time I go ahead and activate, sync, etc, etc. It's a long process and some steps may be redundant to some but I have never had issues flashing this way.
I also do the extra wipes for battery stats. I have never wiped battery stats after flashing as it's done during all the wipe/formatting I do. I charge to 100% before the final boot for this reason (my madness has method). Only one time I had an issue with crappy battery life. A bat stat wipe didn't help even after a few days and I attributed it to that particular ROM.

I was flashing CM9 from CM7 on my Motorola Defy, botched it up intially due to a slip of my finger which led to me to Clear the cache first. But then I restarted the entire process by Clearing Data -> Installing -> Flashing Kernel and so on...
But when I tried to clear the Dalvik Cache, the phone didn't delete it. It didn't give me a message that it wiped the cache, but it didn't say otherwise either. This led me to believe that the cache just didn't exist anymore.
As a result, I'm unable to install apps - Says there is no memory and I need to make more. Also, everytime the phone comes on is treated as the first time. It takes me through the whole process of Setting up an account and everything. This has rendered my phone obsolete.
Please help me!
Thanks in advance.

EDIT: Solved, reflashed the stock SBF. But is this the only solution? :O
Have you tried doing a clean install?
Honestly, any time you get issues like this where the phone gets stuck (either in a boot loop or resetting your settings every boot, etc.) it's best to just wipe/factory reset and re-flash everything.
This is also why it's important to make backups so that if something does go wrong when flashing, you can just restore and be good to go.
If by a clean install you mean starting from wiping data, flashing the ROM on again and going on to clear cache and dalvik cache; Yes I did that. But I'm unable to clear the cache.
I ought to have created a backup, didn't.
So how can I go about fixing this issue?

A clean install seems like the main thing to do (again). If you want, you could try going back to stock.
Installing again didn't do the job. Still can't wipe Dalvik Cache and the Setting still reset on every boot.
The chief problem I have with this is that I'm in India whereas the stock baseband is Europe. So to change it I've to reboot and can't do that because it resets every boot. @[email protected]
Is it a problem with the Kernel?
I'll go back to stock, but it seems a bit complex and I'm afraid I'll brick my phone. :'(
EDIT: Felt it was important to mention that the boot screen still shows CM7.1 and not CM9
I have a similiar problem.
Everytime I choose clear Dalvik men, it looks like he freezes for about a second or two. Then you see the 'menu' no - no - no - no - yes, clear dalvik memory - no - no - no (or something like that) pop up for half a second, and then it is gone. Is this a problem in CWM? Or is it in my phone?
I have a similar problem too! When I hit 'clear dalvik cache', the CWM screen just flashed once and nothing happened, and nothing says 'cleared dalvik cache' or similar...
Me too , how to solve it? Can anyone help? Mine is samsung gio
I have an issue similar to yours with my tablet (samsung galaxy tab 4 10.1 or SM-T430NU) in which it doesn't mount /data and it doesn't let me wipe to factory. Still haven't found how to fix this.
Howdy partners, not sure if I should have started my own thread...let me know if that is proper procedure please. I've already read the recent boot loop thread by vlmaadir t=2558286, but I'm unsure as to the applicability of the solutions in that thread to my problem.
I'm in a similar situation as the vlmaadir, except I've been running the most recent stock ROM (UCMD8) and have rooted via framaroot and flashed the AJKv4.9 - NoSwap Kernal successfully around 12/5/2013. Of course I've yet to do a backup of the OS or apps, but pics/vids/contacts were all recently backed up.
About two weeks ago I started noticing random reboots, but wasn't really sure what to make of that, never any boot looping though. Well this morning the phone was working when i woke (phone alarm raised me from the dead on time) and had approx. 70% battery, but by the time I got to work, the phone had apparently powered off.
When I powered it back on, it took a several minutes to boot up (normally around 45sec-1min), once booted the battery showed about 10-15% (in the red). The few apps I opened worked (naked browser, outlook), but were a bit laggy. I decided to restart the phone from the regular power menu to see if that would help the laggy/battery issue, and upon restart I am now solidly stuck in my 1st android boot loop!!!
I can boot into CWM recovery, but have yet to do any wiping as I wanted to seek a bit of advice here 1st.
If anyone has any pointers, I'm listening.
Thanks!
I would 1st try a wipe cache and wipe dalvik cache from cwm recovery and see if it will reboot.
If it doesn't then u will probably have to wipe data/factory reset from cwm recovery and then reboot.
If ya have been runnin good for a while with AJ's kernel, then a rogue app may be the cause of ur problem.
R u tweakin anything in the kernel through stweaks apk ?

If I have to go wipe data/factory reset, should i have to re-flash the rom and kernel?
I've been running the AJK for about a month, no tweaks. Like I said in the OP, I had noticed some random reboots in the past few weeks and at some point over Christmas day, when I was doing a good bit of pic/video work on my phone, it came up with a message that the internal storage memory was low. I knew this wasn't the case, at least as far as the entire internal memory, which had around 3 gigs free. Just a few strange things I've noticed since having AJK in place.
Are there any other good kernels for stock 4.1.2? AJK seemed to be the go-to of main stock and custom ROM folks.
I did a cache wipe, but when I enter the dalvik wipe confirm menu, the output shows
E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]
and when I confirm yes, wipe dalvik, the screen goes black, then the phone restarts into the boot loop.
Any one know what is up here?
^^
Doing and wipe data/factory reset in the cwm recovery will just return the Stock MD8 to just full stock, as if u first installed it through Odin or att official, Except u will still have the AJ kernel. There is no need to reflash the rom as u say.
But if u cannot find an app that is causing the problem, then a complete Odin flash to Stock MD8 should help in the troubleshooting.

The "E:unknown volume for path [/sd-ext]" is the norm from what i remember.
But not sure why choosing to wipe dalvik cache resulted in a bootloop.
Have ya tried the wipe data/factory reset yet ?
Just did a wipe data/factory reset and I got out of the boot loop! Now I just have to set the phone up like I had it once again! Boo!
Thanks for the input 4-2!!!
Glad ya got it going. :good:
If any other problems arise, just let us know. There are several good members around that are glad to help.
Hi, Yesterday I flashed EMUI 3 onto my phone over CM12.1. I cleaned the dalvic cache and I also installed GAPPS. When the ROM loaded up, it said that the data in the data partition could not be used and asked me to wipe the Data Partition. I accepted because I had backed up all the information. It starts and about 30 seconds in the phone just switches off, but without any warning, No shutting down message or power off, nothing just on and then blank. So I turned my phone on and it just boots straight into recovery. I have restored from a backup, flashed my previous ROM. Re-Flashed the Rom I had, Wiped the Dalvic Cache, The cahce, the data partition and still no luck
Does anyone know what I can do??
Also another thing, When I turn my phone on, It says Honor (Its a Huawei ASCEND phone...) After flashing EMUI it said honor instead of Ascend, So I think its overwritten my bootloader. BTW, I was able to boot into my phone using said bootloader before, it was only after i selected to wipe and it blanked the boot loop started.
Found a Solution!!!
Fixed I installed PhilzTouch for the G620S, wiped all user data (cleaned for new rom) and re-installed CyanogenMod 12.1.
Thank you Philz!!!!!
Help.....anyone can help?
I tried to delete batterystats.bin under "data/system", re-flash the system.img, wipe cache & dalvik, reset to the factory, but the battery stats still as the same...........over 4000%
If i boot in to twrp, the battery stats is normal
Same its happening with me aswell i got 4000% battery and in twrp its normal
