[Q] Battery drops from 40% to 0% Instantly

Hi there.
this morning (12 o'clock) i wanted to use my phone and only red LED's light up when i pressed Power button! I'm pretty sure i had more than 40% Battery left when i went to bed at 01 AM.
Plugged in my phone and started it. Surprising thing was Battery at 1% and when i looked at battery stats it droped from ca 40% to 0% in an instant!
Might be time for Battery Calibration ?
okay...... just had the same problem again!
was undervolting the phone.... 750mv for 128mhz, and it crashed! had 80% Battery before. and 1% after crash, and slowly went upwards till 6%, then i rebooted.

Dear, the problem is that u must have installed a new ROM or an update without wiping your battery stats. That means ur battery infact is not showing the correct %. Infact I guess now its completely out of charge. Just reboot into recovery, wipe battery stats and then dont reboot the phone. Just take off ur battery.
Now plug in ur charger and put the battery in.
This will take the phone into offline charging. See the grey big battery icon. How much its showing ?
Offline charging actually will show u the real battery %
Charge it offline for like 20 to 30 mins and now switch on your phone.
It should be ok.
Let me know if its fixed.
Good luck

Also... I guess there is no need to undervolt your phone for good battery back up.
If you are using Wolf 4.04 with the stock kernel, it itself will give you over a day battery...
just what I'm doing now...
Try calibrate it first mate

Having similar problem here.
More details:
- drops from ~40% to ~5%
- phone shuts down and after boot, battery is back at ~40%.
- it happens only when the phone is in deepsleep, if it crosses 40% when CPU is active, it's fine, but after around 6-10 hrs in DS it drops to <5% and shuts down
- after "instant drop shutdown", battery life decreases (discharging around 25% faster), also fast drop from 100% to ~90%, when it gets below 90% the drain is "back on track"
Phone specs:
> X10i UK
> Bootloader unlocked
> ROM(s): same issue on ZMOD v3, VMOD v5/v6, FXP046, testing on Wolf's Stock Mod,
> Kernel(s): DoomLord's v1.3 FS/v1.4 FS, FXP Kernel,
> Original SE Battery,
> Phone bought at end of June 2010,
> It's hard to tell when it first happened, but it was happening once per month or so (I thought it's ROM fault back then), not every time like it's happening now
> I've tried Battery Calibration app from the Market, wiping battery stats in xRec, no luck

Here download and install this and your problems should go away when you do it right. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
Sent from my X10i using xda app-developers app
Had the same problem and it was the battery dying replace the battery with an exact same battery no higher or less mAh rating same mAh rating and follow instructions that come with new battery carefully then carry out battery calibration manually with wiping stats yourself and fully charging and discharging a few times to get proper battery life. I did all this and now I'm back to how it was when I first bought phone but my case was worse as mine would drop from 86% to 0% soon as it hit 86% that was it could use phone so get a new battery there cheap enough

the problem begins when i switched back to stock ics rom after using a lot of roms without flashing the kernels . now i tried everything i m on stock rom with stock sony kernel , even more i tried stock GB rom but same result again .
currently i m on.....
stock .587 firmware
formatted D-card
locked bootloader
stock SONY kernel.
How can i solve this issue. please help me, its so annoying
thanx!

download this from playstore:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
charge till 100%, start the app, press calibrate and then unplug your phone from charger. your phone must be rootet.
after calibration use your phone till it has only 1 or 2 % left, then charge again to 100% without interrupt. dont calibrate again.
if the problem still isnt fixed with calibration, try this:

...It could be that your power meter has gone wonky and this can be reset by charging the phone to 100% and then removing the battery and the usb cable from the phone for 10 minutes. Return the battery to the phone and charge it back up to 100%.

My friend, i can see you have problem with the batery life. I don't know if any of you has noticed this, but when the phone is charging and it reaches 100%, you shouldn't remove the charger. The phone is still charging even after reaching 100%,sometimes for half an hour. If you want to see when the phone is fully charged, go to Settings-About phone-Phone status. In the first field you can find if the phone is or is not fully charged. Try this and let's see what happens. I hope i can help some of you.
see the pictures u can understand...
Before charing is complete evn when it is 100% charged
The acctual 100% charged...

thanx for replying but the problem is still there ,i perform all the operation as u guys mentioned but no good result :crying:
I once had problems with the Mediaserver which was draining my batterie.
it did so because of 2 Videos he didn't recognize, i also heard the Mediaserver can run crazy if the sd card is broken.
So which app is using your batterie that much?

Can you post a screenshot from the first battery screen? That one will show which process are using the battery up. In places of the screen shot you posted, it looks like there is a problem with your phone staying awake when the screen is off.

battery is not draining, actually it is showing wrongly .... every time after removing battery it shows actual amount of battery remaining , yesterday i charged my phone several time until it reached actually 95% and then i starts playing temple run, the battery indicator reaches at 1% within 20 mins and then it remains at 1% charged until 3 hours of continuous gaming and then shuts off, then i put it on charging and it reaches 100% within 15%
and yesterday night i put my phone again into charging and today morning it is showing 100% and after 6 hours of moderate use it is still 100%

[Q] Charging Issue

So I flashed to Resurrection Remix ROM with 4.4.2 last week. The rom is awesome and it worked fine till a couple of days back. It is taking my phone forever to charge. I have just got a new battery so battery is not the issue as it was working fine till now. Also, the battery is sucked up quite soon. I downloaded a battery calibration app and did as asked. But even that did not help. What might be the problem?

It works fine till 40% but then the battery takes no time in emptying up even while in standby. Also the phone shuts down before it is even 0% (between 5-10%)

As you are saying that your mobile seems "hot"
First you need to confirm that its charger/device issue or only with battery.
First do battery calibration with this method: (In this method you need custom recovery for your device
This may help you

Dont forget to thank him there on his thread.
IMPORTANT: You can skip this step>> "Wait 20 min after you are sure it is 100% (phone should stay plugged in)" - As i dont know much about LG devices and their batteries
Now some advice from me-
If you can cover it >>> Never charge battery again and again before 15 or 20%
Always charge your battery to 100% at once and use your device till 15% or less than 15% and then again charge it full and so on...
This will make your battery backup good as well for battery life

If you are on a custom ROM, try wiping cache and dalvik and battery stats...could help.

According to the Battery Doctor app, you shouldn't leave your phone on charge for more than 9-10 hours(MAX), otherwise it WILL harm your battery.
You should try hibernating some of those apps with Greenify.
Sent from my One X using xda app-developers app
BetterBatteryStats
Use better battery stat (check play store) or similar app to track draining application.
In this way you can find a culprit

Yes, over charge can reduce battery life.
