It seems to be the kernel your problem,flash another kernel, first try to calibrate your battery ....METHOD 1-- 1
. Please download the phone completely.
2. Try to restart, if this were to happen, do it again to turn off for lack of battery.
3. Loaded the phone off preferably overnight or long.
4. Turn on the phone with the charger plugged in and then pull it off.
N. B. does not require the Root. -METHOD 2-- 1
. Download the phone completely.
2. Enter into Recovery Mode (if it is not possible for lack of battery, connect the phone to the charger).
3. Follow the path Advanced -> Wipe battery stats and confirm.
4. Go back and restart (i.e. , follow the path Go Back -> Reboot system now). 5.

B. You must have Root * Clockworkmod recovery installed. METHOD 3-- 1. Charge your phone to 100% (with the phone turned on) preferably overnight or at least a long period. 2. Leave the phone connected to the charger and switch off the appliance. 3. Let it load still for 10-15 minutes (always without disconnecting it from the charger) in practice you have to see the written full charge or the % to 100 %. 4. Enter into Recovery Mode (always without disconnecting it from the charger) and follow the path Advanced -> Wipe battery stats and confirm. 5. Reboot (i.e. , follow the path Go Back -> Reboot system now). 6. Wait for the entire system is loaded, and then disconnect it from the charger. N. B.

thnx i will try that..but i do always charge my phone overnight

Battery stats are wiped anyway when the phone is full, they are not used for calibration. (The battery got an internal chip for that)
Calibration is achieved by fully charging, fully discharging in one go and then fully charging again (A so-called battery cycle) as included in the above description.
However note that a full discharge causes a lot of strain to your battery; if you often completely drain your battery it will degrade very fast.
If you got a lot of apps which have data usage or a poor Wifi connection the drain might be normal since it requires the chipset to work far more than under optimal conditions.

ok back again the kernel is eating 37% of the battery as least thats according to bad ass battery stats..i(m on shiyah

Battery Trick Not Working

How am I supposed to do the battery trick when after my phone dies and I plug it in all that happens it either the phone starts up or it boots into CWM immediately. There is no battery image that lets me charge to 100% then turn it on and boot into CWM. I am on 2.2, 4.5 GingerBlur. I am unlocked.
Was following this guide:
Your battery life is often killed when flashing ROMs in CWM. For the best battery life, you must drain your device’s battery until it turns off. Plug the device into the AC adapter and let it charge till the image says 100% charged. Then turn it on and use the volume buttons to boot into CWM. Click Wipe Battery Stats under the advanced menu. Then you should charge to 100% and install the ROM. Battery life should be comparable to (if not better than) every other ROM.

Just charge with the phone on to 100% and either reboot into cwm to wipe stats or delete the baterrystats.bin yourself through root explorer.

Difficult to help with no specific information about the ROM, kernel, etc. running on your phone.
Since when do you have this issue?
What has happened just before this problem appeared the first time?
Just as theoretical suggestions:
1. Start into recovery mode, wipe cache partition.
2. Shut down the phone.
Pull out the battery.
Leave it out for about 5 minutes.
(Just to be sure that everything "cooled" down and CPU is fully out of any voltage and current.)
Then put the battery back into the phone.
3. If nothing helps, flash a stock ROM.
Then start into recovery mode and do a factory reset.
(So backup everything you do not want to lose before flashing.)
Good luck !
problem arose in the morning, after charging the phone. Reset did, flash another firmware. None of this helps.

[Q] Eclipse ROM - charging phone issue

I just loaded the Eclipse ROM, and have been running it for about a week now. When the phone dies and I plug in the charger, it lights up to the dual core screen, but when it's charged I can't turn the phone on via the power button, but have to pull the battery. And it takes an act of god to then turn on the phone. Took me a few battery pulls this last time around to be able to fire it up. Any ideas on a fix for this?
sounds like your phone is getting stuck between loading BSR and the charge mode. When you pull the battery, unplug it before you put it back in. phone should boot normally. Maybe try to reinstall System recovery and re-set recovery mode, (or charge mode if that's what you want it to do, not a good choice in my opinion though.)
How would I reinstall System Recovery? It looks to be part of the Eclipse ROM (settings -> Eclipse Parts -> Bootstrap Recovery). There's a "Install Recovery", "Recovery Mode", and "Charge Mode" option. Should I just try the "Install Recovery" or do I need to uninstall something first?
When the phone is fully charged I unplug the phone, then pull the battery.
thx
yeah "install recovery" and then plug in and recovery mode. phone will reboot and load BSR, if it works reboot. this way if the phone dies on you and you plug it in it should load to BSR and charge, once charged for a few mins you can reboot and let it charge while powered on.
OK I hit "Install Recovery" which it did, then "Recovery Mode", then it rebooted into recovery. I then rebooted the phone and waited til it died, then plugged in the charger. Now it boots into recovery. Still no charging mode, but at least I can reboot the phone. Is there any advantage/disadvantage to charging while the phone is off? This bugs me, but if it's a non-issue then I guess I won't worry about it.
thx
No benefit really....having it charged while off just means u can't use.it while its charging
But charging while in BSR is just fine also.
BUT if you REALLY want that battery to show up while charging, go into eclipse parts recovery. Press charge mode.
I highly recommend against it cuz if u don't reinstall recovery after charging and u change something bout ur phone u wont be able to get into BSR to restore a nandroid if bootlooping if charge mode was set last

Make the battery even better (Rooted and UnRooted)

(Rooted and UnRooted)​You need to flash your stock recovery first if U have flashed custom recovery​But how ??
1. First of all please plug your charger to phone and charge it fully 100%
2 Put your phone to Air plane mode and Unplug your charger
3. Turn off your phone and plug charger again wait till the battery is fully charged and shows 100%(wait around 2 mins) [ don't Unplug the charger ]
4. Turn it on and go to the dialer
5. Dial *#0228# (a page pop's up)
6. Unplug your charger and wait around 30 secs
7. Touch Quick Start then OK
8. Reboot and Turn off the Air plane mode
(Just rooted devices) Battery calibration :
Please download RootExplorer and install it then
Please Do the same as part 1 & 2 & 3
4. Launch RootExplorer go to : Root/data/system >
5. Find batterystats.bin and unplug your charger and wait for 30 secs then DELETE batterystats.bin
6. Reboot and Turn off the Air plane mode
Enjoy and Thanks for your Thanks
Is there any technical explanation about how is the battery would even better from this tutorial?

It s necessary when u change your ROM or update it .
the calibration of battery depends on ROM
You change the Rom You change the calibration !

Moto Z XT1650-05 Do not charge or sim signal.

Hello friends, I come to report here a problem I'm having with my device.
It is not charging my battery, I thought it was a problem in the battery itself, I made the replacement for an original, but the problem was not solved. the device uses all the battery power, it stays at 0% and it does not charge, besides, it recognizes my SIM card, but there is no signal from the operator to make calls or use the 4G network, I did a lot of research I saw that it was a problem related to Software, regarding the CQA test, I saw several tutorials, where none succeeded, lastly, I would like to install a custom rom to see if the problem would be solved, but I went to do the bootloader unlock process, but when Fastboot displays the code and I enter the site of the motorola, it returns me with an error that I can not unlock the bootloader of my cell phone, and I need to unlock to be able to customize the android.
follows a video showing what is happening with my device.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=17roum_XlzQ
sorry if my text contains errors, I'm from Brazil and I used the translator to write
Thank you if anyone can help me because I have the device stopped because of this.
Thank you!
Hi, had the same issue. What helped me was connecting
power cable, going to bootloader, from there navigate to recovery. When it boots to recovery, regardless if there is any, leave it for some time. After about 5-10 minutes try rebooting, and it might picked up some charge, then it should charge as normally but very slowly, cellular connection also appeared.
Last time when my phone went to 0% and after going through this procedure my phone was at 17% after charging in recovery mode but didn't charge in normal mode after reboot. I also needed to toggle some setting regarding CQA in bootloader menu. Then everything went back to normal.
I will do this procedure to see if it solves my problem, remembering that my battery is in 0% and with it connected in the device it is only displaying the lightning, informing that the battery is without load.
what settings did you make regarding the CQA?

My device does not hold 5 seconds on bootloader because my battery is at 0% I believe the power supplied by the cable in the charger is not enough to keep it powered on. and now?
Original charger is definitely more than enough to keep phone on in bootloader mode. Try to make sure that usb C connection is dust and grease free.
Regarding CQA mode setting I can't remember exactly, but that is second thing.
Maybe even 5 seconds in bootloader should be just fine to navigate to recovery.
I wish you good luck, i was almost desperate when it firstly happened to me.
i had the same problem. after lot of trial and error i found a solution.
connect to power source (wall adaptor/modo battery mod.) get into bootloader menu and wait for 5 mins pressing vol up or down frequently.
then select reboot to recovery. on red triangle screen holding power button press and release volume up button one time. you will get into android stock recovery
select option wipe cache partition. and select yes when asked.
keep charging the device upto half hour in recovery mode and then select option reboot to bootloader.
after bootloader menu appears scroll down to BPTools and select it.
Your Phone will reboot and you will get Network and Your Phone will also charge normally.
Warning: Do not let your phone discharge to 0% or you might have to perform all above steps again.
This method worked for me as well. I recently replaced the battery on my Moto z force droid but couldn't get it to charge and signal was gone, after trying several things the Bp tools worked great, thanks dude.
