[Solved] Battery half way, S2 shuts down - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was wondering if someone can tell me why my S2 is shutting down all the time.
A few weeks ago the following started happening. If I use my phone intensively like for an hour or so it just shuts down. When I try to restart it, it says the battery is almost empty. Even though it showed it had at least 50% juice before the shutdown.
The funny part is that if I don't use my phone a lot (only a few calls) it lasts about 2 days and the battery goes down towards 0% as expected. And when I use it intensively again, it shuts down.
So before blaming the battery and buying a new one I was wondering if something else can be the cause and I need to send it back to Samsung.
I was using cm10.1 until 2 days ago. I'm running stock now and the same issue is still there.

Re: Battery half way, S2 shuts down
Check whether or not the battery is loose in the slot. If it is then stick a paper to tighten it.
Other reason could be your battery cell is damaged. It cannot hold the current when some activity like wifi or processor is running.
I had faced not exactly the same but something similar to this only.
Replaced the battery and all okay now.

Thanx for your reply. I have a friend who has a s2. I'll let him test my battery for a day. If he has the same result I'll just order a new one. Might as well get the bigger one.

I had the same issue. It turned out to be a battery problem, so I just ordered a new one.. I mean, a daily use of 5 hours over one and a half years WILL kill the effectiveness of a battery

Thanx. Just ordered a new battery and will let you know if it works out.

Re: Battery half way, S2 shuts down
I had the exact same problem as you, phone would have about 50-60% battery, and after using it for a bit it would power off, and when it rebooted it had like 5% battery. I bought a new 2000mah battery and it fixed the problem.

Re: Battery half way, S2 shuts down
I ordered the 2000mah battery and am running it now for 3 days without any problems. Thank you all for the feedback.

I've been experiencing the same problem with my SGS2's battery and noticed that it is getting bloated. I purchased a new one to prevent severe damage on my mobile phone.

Cant get more than 2 hours screen time, but can can get 12hours standby.

Anyone have any ideas what to look for? I dont think I have a battery drain because with the screen off I lose about .5-1% every hour or so. But when im using the phone, the battery seems to drain very fast. The most screen time I have gotten is 2hrs, and its usually less than that.
Brightness does not seem to matter, I always have auto off and have tried brightness at 20%, 30%, 50% and 60%.
Use this application to locate Battery Drain https://play.google.com/store/apps/...mNvbS5XYXphQmUuYW5kcm9pZC5CYXR0ZXJ5RHJhaW4iXQ..
Update to the latest firmware or put a custom ROM.
The problem has been resolved. I had also a fast drain battery.
I even had the screen On during the night.
When I closed the eyes it was Off, but in the morning at my wake up it was On
Thanks I'll try the battery drain app.

The battery of my SG3 drains so fast I'm evne thinking of returning it (bought it yesterday). It can't be normal, it's almost like my old iPhone 3G. It goes like 1% per minute or so while browsing.
Did this fix and disabled WiFi, no luck.
Gonna try that app and see if it helps.
I think mine is like that as well. Maybe 1% minute when using heavily. Also thinking selling it. Can't return, bought on Craig list.
Very strange behavior. Something must be wrong with your soft or hardware because this is smartphone with the best battery (except razr maxx).

I am experiencing the same thing since i flashed omega rom v13. i was getting 5/5.5 hours of screen time on stock Samsung rom before i flashed. Right now the battery drains 1% every 2mins when the screen is on :/ (brightness has alwsys been around 20/30%)
Only thing that has changed since i flashed is the fact that i had wifi off during sleep on stock but now its always on. I have tried setting it to always off but it automatically switches to always on everytime i do it for some reason.

I believe this is normal with new devices. It takes time before Li-Ion batteries "adjust".
Flashed my phone to another rom, JB 4.1.1 and it's the same. So no, it's not software issue. Hardware? I don't think so... the phone is new and works just fine. The problem is the battery that it's new, or maybe is damaged... who knows (probably not).
I have the same problem. I see people post threads the battery, that lasts 2 days !
I'm thinking of buying a new battery, just to check if it is a battery thing, if the battery is ****ed up or something... The Galaxy S3, should last for atleast one day! and I can't get even that! is there a fix for that? I can post my battery use from the settings if necessary.
There are loads of threads about battery drain, a lot of it relates to Samsung bloatware and background services like face awake etc, you just need to explore your phone, learn how to use it, and see it up properly.....it is not an iPhone...it requires independent thinking skills
I'm experiencing the same problem on CM9.1. Try draining the battery fully twice. That'll calibrate it and improve battery life.

That's pretty much what everyone is saying. I've never drained it, so I'm wating. Hopefully it'll work.
It can't be software because I changed ROMs like 5 times, everytime installing a different one.

Since two days, I'have the same problem.
Before Wednesday, I'haven't issue about battery drain. My phone battery worked more than 2 days idle with about 4hours screen ON and 1 hour voice calls.
But now, it works fine between 100% and 60% and then, battery drain starts. Just a few hours for the phone to indicate that it's remain 5% of power.
Do you think they are a background daemon running sometimes (why since two days?) ? Or it's a network problem ?
I'll try to wipe my battery stats and fully charge the battery.
Currently, my SGS3 International works with the latest UK firmware : PDA/XXBLG8 - MODEM/XXBLH1

Liquid ICS JMOD battery life?

How have peoples battery life on the new ROM? I've noticed that since I installed it, that my battery is going dead in about half the time it was on the preview release. Any ideas/suggestions?

Mine seems to wear down faster than it used to (not nearly as fast as the BAMF leak). I wouldn't call it twice as fast, just faster. What I have noticed is it also charges quite a bit faster than it used to. I like the faster battery charge, unless it's just giving us a false reading when it's not really full, which might also explain the quicker wear down.
I use the extended battery so wear down is less of an issue for me.
Make sure you check the battery menu under system settings. The first time for me the light turned green but under that menu it said it was still at 78 pct

solid 13 hrs here, not sure why yours would do that.
I think I found something that helped... I flashed the combo radio, and it caused a big signal problem, so I flashed back to the radio I had before, and my battery is doing MUCH better.

I'm running liquid's ics (jmod) public beta 2 with the combo radio and my battery life is awesome. I haven't run it down yet, but it's easily lasting twice as long as my old gingerbread rom which could go a day without a charge and light use. When it's idling in ICS, the battery life seems to hardly drop at all.
I think I figured out why my battery wears down quicker. I've always kept LTE turned off. It's been on lately, so that would account for my additional battery drain.
I set battery percentage to show up on my lock screen, so it's easy to see the battery percent without going through the menu.
I got over 13 hrs. today. Most of the day I put the phone in CDMA evdo auto which helped a lot. I work in a lot of areas that don't get 4g so it drains my battery super fast searching for a signal all day.

Mine is not to bad. Not as good as it was on Thundershed but that could be cause I'm on it more playing. Also still getting my screen down to levels I like.
Time will tell for me.
Really think that reflashing radio fixed me. Did that, reboot a couple times and...

I also noticed that the lower menu bar (home - menu - back - search bar) stays backlit all the time. Including when I push the button to turn the screen off.
I don't know if I accidentally did that while playing with all the settings, or if everyone else's is doing that too. Either way, I'm pretty sure that will affect my battery life as well.
Edit: A reboot seems to have cured my backlight issue.
My back light is off permanently for some reason

My battery life has been horrible for months. I can leave my phone plugged in all night and it will only charge to 52%. If I turn it off and charge it for a couple hours it'll read 72%. That is as high as I can get it to go. No fully charged. For about the last 3 weeks it'll drain in about 2 hours. I've been running the new radio recently and still see no change. I even turn off LTE and still don't see much of a difference. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Drain it and charge 8 hours with it off then reset battery memory.

[Q] SII Sever Battery Issues after 4.0.4 and even while phone it is switched off

Most of Galaxy SII users have had good battery backup but not me, my phone once went into a bucket filed with water. Had a friend to open it up and clean it with a chemical (Usually used to clean phones circuits)
The phone was fine, then battery problems came up, changed the battery still has issues average time it lasts is for 8-9 provided i do not use it for anything but 2-3 calls or text. or 3-4 hrs is maximum. All this has happened after 4.0.4 update.

Can anyone please explain what the problem is with this phone. I am not sure if it is a bug/hardware problem. the phone is out of warranty now.
**I am a noob, I do not know how to root a phone however one of my friend helped me root HTC Wildfire which now has EPIC Battery life.

it is common when you drop your phone into the water that the battery will start having problems.
For example suddenly you get a drop from100 percent to 50 percent.
I could be wrong, you can check the guide that is in my signature for your battery problems.

The thread is FAB! but like I said I am a noob hence doing everything you suggested is tough for me to understand. Looking at things like removing live wallpapers, stopping auto sync, keeping wifi and data plan off minimum brightness. I have tried it all. Still the problem exists.
Short circuit, perhaps? My suggestion would be to bring it to samsubg and see if they can repair it. I think it's a hardware problem

Seems more like it but they say there is a bug in 4.0.4. Should I try root before handing it over to samsung or just leave it up to them?

Battery suddenly drops to zero when is low, shuting down the phone

I everyone i hope u all started this 2013 very well.
I have a problem whit my almost two months old galaxy S2, when i get the "15% low battery warning" the brightness of the screen gets crazy and the phone suddenly shuts down dropping sometimes that 15% left of battery (sometimes more some less) what could be the problem? Do i need a new battery? Should i go to warranty?
Thanks in advance for reading this

Just charge your phone untill 100%, then shut it down. Remove your battery for about a minute, put it back in and turn on your phone again.
If you're on a rom with Siyah kernel, you can even reset your battery chip through STweaks.
Let us know if it worked.

May be a kernel bug..try wiping battery stats in recovery and give it sometime to settle down. I used to get this error sometimes...Hope this helps!
10 hours? that 3g is really killing you there.
no setcpu? always drops dead below 15%?
I don't want to start a new thread, so I am going to write my problem here. And @OP sorry for using your thread^^
I am facing a similar problem right now, while I am on 40~50 % of battery, the screen blinks fast an the phone shuts down. Sometimes I should just turn it on and all is good and sometimes I must plug in the charger. It happened on both a custom ROM and a stock ROM. Is my battery dying? It doesn't seem to be a software issue though...
I appreciate any help

Check with betterbatterystats to see what's happening when the drop takes place.
To tell you the truth it does sound like a faulty chip issue.

3g is a BH when it comes to battery. Have you set a SetCpu governor when bat goes below 15%? I did, and it would shut down my device.

Dude I have exactly the same problem, and this anonying issue has costed me months of trying without any improvement. But glad to see there's other people having this issue, which means it may be due to some common reasons. One thing I would like to ask you is whether or not your battery level drops to 0% ~ 15% after it is shut down automatically with battery level indicated as 50%? If so then we have the same issue.

Battery indicator inaccurate

Anyone else seeing issues with really inaccurate battery readings? I'll be at 99% charged for 15+ hours sometimes, and then things will drop rapidly or even just die at 20%. I've also noticed when charging that it'll get to 99% within an hour or so and then spend 30-45 mins at 99%.
On top of this, my phone battery just died at around 55%. Are others just draining their battery all the way to try to calibrate?

I always calibrated battery by draining it all the way and charging it all the way atleast first 3 times.

What rom and Kernel are you on. Also what mods if any such as battery indicators and such have you put on your phone?
@dragonstalker: I'm running stock with the latest OTA update. I'm using Batterybot to display the indicator in the notification bar, but the reading is the same from the stock battery display.

Doesnt do anything for Li batteries its fud.
For the last 2 days, my battery has drained overnight and is dead by the morning. The first time, I didn't think of it. This time, I looked at the history and it drains within maybe 6 hours without the screen on, being awake, or anything. I turn off all of my radios besides cellular at night. So I have no clue what could be causing the battery drain. Any ideas? Here is a pic of the history

Is anyone using battery calibration apps? I know some of the custom ROMs like Hatka Supreme list that they include some sort of function in those regards.
I thought even on stock there was a way to erase battery stats so that you could recalibrate. No? Could of sworn I had seen the option when I first got the phone. Could be wrong too...

I downloaded Gsam and it says that my radio is taking up most of my battery. Any idea why this is happening because its never done this before? I used to get at least 2 days of battery usage. I charged it until it was full yesterday, let it sit overnight, and this morning it was @ 20%. I'm on newts M7 and z's B5.4. I've been on this combination for the majority of the time I've had my phone an no problems until now. And I don't think its the kernel because the same thing happens when I had it on 5.1. I noticed I was on global mode and I changed it to LTE/CDMA. Who the hell knows, that might be what's causing it. We'll see. Any help is appreciated.
