[Q] Battery acting insane !! - Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey XDA community,
Two days ago, I flashed my S2 to Cyanogenmod 12.1 and as always, the battery dropped to below the 15 %, so I put it to recharge. After some downloading and updating and installing, I put the phone to recharge again while it was on 4%, and I left it all night (for 7 hours) and when I woke up, I found it only at 22 % !!!
I turned it off and went to work on my laptop and put it to recharge on USB cable, the problem is that instead of recharging and going up, it showed that it was recharging but going down from 22 to 19 to 12 !! After some turning on and off and going to recovery mode, the battery died and I left it turned off for recharge, but it stayed on 0% for more than an hour !! It won't budge anymore.
I turned it on and off so it will completely discharge and recharge it with USB cable and an AC USB adapter and it actually started recharging. I took it off at 64%, flashed back to Jellybeans (JellySnap) thinking that the CM 12's battery issue isn't fixed yet, but even on Jellybean, I'm still struggling with the battery problem ! This is what happens now :
_ Recharging while turned on : It would show that it is recharging for 7~15 seconds, then it will ask to connect charger even though it's connected.
_ Recharging while turned off : The loading bar is moving but after 7~10 seconds, it would stop and the phone would either turn on by itself and start the same problem up there OR keep on rebooting on the Empty battery with the loading circle screen.
I also left it to recharge all night (6 hours) and when I woke up this morning, I found it stopped on 20%
I left it to recharge now (turned off), and so far so good, the loading bar hasn't stopped, but I need to know what is the cause of this issue. Is it software/firmware problem ? The battery ? The micro USB port ?

[Q] Help!!! charged my galaxy 5 with wrong charger

This morning I used my sister's Samsung Champ's charger to charge my Galaxy 5. I didn't keep it in for long (20 - 30 min) but when I removed it, the battery started showing low charge warnings; I tried charging with my laptop using the cable that came with the phone and it showed 70% charged immidately, but when I removed it, it showed <14% warning again.
I tried to drain the battery completely and then recharge it, but the battery is still draining fast. Please help, the phone is only 2 months old...
Did you do a full charge?
I don't see why using other chargers effect your phone, I always use blackberry chargers and have no problem, try charging to 100%, draining to 0% a few times, see if it helps

It might have nothing to do with using the wrong charger, you might just have the signal glitch where your phone is constantly searching for signal when it already has it, my phone started to do it recently, to check if this is the issue go to Settings, Phone Info, Battery Useage, Signal, then if it says something like Time without signal 50% then that is the issue.
Try this;
Unplug your phone
Turn Airplane Mode on for about 10 seconds
Turn Airplane Mode off
Restart phone.
That fixed my battery life- it was going for 80% battery to 10% in under 5 minutes.

[Q] My phone turns off at random

I have a note 1 N7000, and each time the screen began flickering and after that it shut down. This got worse after flashing a cyanogenmod rom. By plugging in the charger the battery seemed empty, but wasn't. After a while the battery indicator used to show charged 70 % or more. Put the charger cable off and the situation repeated after a short time of usage. Last night it started turning off at boot and wouldn't turn on unless on charge. I flashed a original JB rom since the problem doesn't happen when on recovery/download mode. but now it does it even when connected on charge.
HELP

Oh my dear i9001

Hello guys this is my first post talking about my problematic i9001
A few months back (in november last year) I consumed the battery till it got to 0% and it shut itself off without turning on. Whenever I tried to plug the charger in , it would show a grey battery with a circle in the middle on and on without charging . Then I tried plugging the battery to a universal charger and miracle ! The phone turned on ! But whenever I charge it , the phone gets reaaaaally hot and charges really slow .
Last night I left the phone to charge overnight (plugged it in at 2%) and in the morning the phone had the same grey battery logo meaning the battery is completely empty
So I know the battery has issues BUT does my phone also have USB charger issues ? Because it charges really slow and the phone gets really hot.
Sorry if I did any mistakes and if I did not give enough details

Phone turn off with any battery charge

A few weeks ago, my phone started to shutdown by itself while my battery charge would show from 30 to 70 %.
So i ended up recently by ordering a new battery.
I did the replacement and now the problem remains with the new one.
Before starting using it i pluged the tel for charging and it got 30% in 1 or 2 hours and then got suddenly full charge.
This is the very first time i experience this strange behaviour.
My phone has the B396 build and is rooted.
Is there anything i can do to make the OS see the real battery charge ?
