[Q] Battery drain on Galaxy 3 when on voice call & other battery problems - Galaxy 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

hello,
i have I5801 galaxy 3..
currently on kies Froyo firmware..
from since flashing to froyo ..
1) whenever i talk on phone (ie do voice call) battery drains out in even less then a hour when fully charged..
2) when kept for charging.. even if battery shows like 10% remaining .. within like a min or two.. battery indicator shows an 100% charged status.
and it drains out in like 10 mins if removed from charging
what i think is somehow froyo is assuming it's charged and is stopping the charging process.
i've rooted it, and tried calibration.. still no luck.. I've deleted batterystats.bin regularly, still a new file is created and no change in battery condition is seen
plz help.. too much frustrated
PS: i am not a pro.. so help plz

don't delete batterystats.bin do some full charge discharge then report.

tried that.. still no change
battery drained off in 30-40 mins..
does ATK make battery drain? somewhere along on some phone someone said that draining battery to nil and charging back cycle makes battery life even shorter.. dunno what to do..

Calibrate your battery after doing a full charge. And use as "normal" for few normal cycles, just like you usually did.

Hi
Try using light version of g3mod kernel instead of oc based.
You can flash your phone with my Rom and test after full battery charge. note some apps are battery drainer like tweetcaster etc due to continuous sync.
Try to stop those services and test your phone thereafter..it will show improvement. .and dont delete any battery calibration seetting once done after you flash thats all.
Do let me know if it not happens.
Cheers.

i flashed g3mod-2.0-nonoc
still when i try to put it to charge..
say currently it shows like 40% charge.. but as soon as i put it on charging (via AC) .. it shoots up directly to 90-100 in two minutes.... this should be wrong, right?
darin rate is also bad
it showed 100% charged and a 3 min call .. made battery level goto 45%

Humm.. Strange..! U sure the other battery dsnt got any prob??
Ok try this .. convert all partition to rfs & flash any stock ROM with stock kernel.. Use Ur phone like that 2-3days.. See if any improvement..
Sent from my GT-I5800 using Tapatalk

err STOCK kernel means official right?
also how to convert parition to rfs.. is this about partitioning SDcard? coz if it is i've tried using without any card insert .. still same
i was thinking about G3mod 2.0 Beta2 kernel .. heard it uses very less battery..
but i've got a question ( and i can't ask in development forum as per post limitation) that does the 2.0 Beta2 uses less battery than the official samsung jp6 kernel? or should i try flashing that?
(now i may look like stupid asking these question)

first of all, sorry for bumping this after a month..
actually G3 wasnt with me from then, now it's back and problem persists
what i notice is that
1) phone when put to charge, shoots up to 100% in 5-10 mins, even when off
2) and same with the drain, it goes to 1% in 5-10mins
i checked out with battery, and it is fine they(samsung service center) say,..
plz help, i am at question as to what is the reason for this sudden rise and fall of battery level.

if u got a costum rom use battery calibration from the market its free it fix the drains happend whit me to

nope... i had used it before but now i am currently on I5801DDJP6 updated from 2.1 eclair via kies
its stock,unrooted, no modifications..
i'd calibrate battery, but the fact that it shoots up t0 100% in 10 mins
and what i guess is when phone detects 100% battery, it pretty much stops charging after that, thus battery starves ..
can something be done so that it actually gets accurate reading on battery status ?

Switch off your cell...let it full charge....
Then switch on the device and flash the cyanogen mod...
Its fast,stable and also increases the battery power...
had the exact same problem...did that and now works for almost two days...

cyanogenMod site doesnt show Galaxy 3 support...
btw u are saying ROM or kernel?? coz i like stock ROM of samsung as it's easy to use
@bscraze i contacted service center.. they say battery's good and doesn't need replacement...

hey i discharged until phone switched itself off couple of times
and charged it back to 100% while phone was off and then again when ON..
then, i increased brightness,turned on wifi,bluetooh,gps,etc and it dropped to 90% ..
as it is stock rom i think it was between 90-100% (coz with 1% mod)
but as soon as a call came, which was of 2:38 seconds, my phone battery dropped off to 3%
any guesses, why this is happening?

what i have been able to detect from last two days is,
that battery fall is severe only when on voice call,
i have been playing music,games without much battery drain
but a mere voice call with everything off (GPS,bluetooh,dataconntection) for not more than 10 mins, drains battery by 20-30%
any ideas about it's reason??

Check out which app uses more battery in battery - settings - usage. That particular process may use more battery than others.
I have a similar problem with my G3 - I'm running CM 6.2
While I checked the OS takes 76% of the battery. I found CM6.2 better in handling FC than 7.1..Or should i just go back to Cm 7.1??
Experts, please advice

Hello everyone. its long since i posted here and thats bcoz of only one reason .. battery problem with my phone. i really was getting pissed off by the issue that i stopped posting here .. cursing my bad old phone.. my battery was lasting near abt 6-10 hrs lately .. finally i decided to..
1. flash eclair (stock) JG6 which came along at the time of my purchase and had reasonable to good batt back up. flashed that and i was like 18-24hrs of batt backup. Used it for almost one week. and as i was surfing thru our threads.. saw some really encouraging post abt Kyrillos 9.3 and its battery backup. so..
2. I flashed kyrillos 9.3 for last 3 days .. and did the calibration on my very first charging after flashing 9.3.. yesterday got almost 36 hrs of batt backup .. right now m on 84%.. unplugged @ 8pm yesterday .. it 10:15am right now in india. so its around 14 hrs .. which i feel is quite good considering my past exp with my battery ..
I dont know what actually has done the trick or its illusion to me . but after flashing eclair my phone performance has gone up smartly.
Using 9.3 NON-OC. with a2sd enabled.
i hope it can help ppl abt our all confusing battery issue .. if not .. at least it can throw some light ...
Press the thanks button if u find it helpful. Hve a gr8 day.

Huge Battery Drain

Hi,
I am on a rooted stock rom DDLF2. Couple of weeks i am observing high battery drain though none of the apps are running. I dont put any fancy live wall papers or widgets. I have stopped all the background apps like google play, maps etc and Background data unchecked. I always us GSM only and do not use any wifi or data network. Screen brightness is at around 15%. I use the phone very less hardly get around 5 to 6 calls in a day lasting 1 or 2 mins per call. If i charge the phone fully to 100%, after 8 to 9 hours the battery is coming down to 30%. After it comes down to 15% the lock screen shows it is charging with the percent symbol even though it is not connected to the charger.
I tried resetting the phone, cleared the dalvik cache and the cache partition but no use. I suspect this is a software bug.
Has anybody faced similar problem? Any solution would be much helpful.
I am also facing the same problem.. can anybody plz help??

Have u tried clearing battery stats..?
Do it once. then charge your phone to 100%.. allow it to discharge it to 20%..
Again repeat the cycle for 3-4 times..
this should solve the problem hopefully..

Yes i already tried it. Cleared the battery stats. But did not solve the problem. Surprisingly the moment battery charge drops to 15% it starts showing the line "Charging (15%)" on the lock screen even the charger is not connected to the phone. Not sure what is wrong.
So i am thinking of downgrading the version. Can anybody suggest me any good stable stock rom which can be used for India (since i am in India) particularly with good battery life.

Kpu? It is quite stable.
try putting some other Kernel, may be BAM kernel it might help!

Even i was feeling that phone's battery is dead, but trust me, I reverted back to DDKP3, and installed BAM kernel .. I find battery backup much improved, I have kept GPRS on for 5 hours now ..11% battery drained. On the LF2 ( for india without BAM ) and on the ICS drain was huge.. like in 6 hours i have seen drain more than 45%
I have even bought new battery also.. but testing on Old battery only.. You can try combo of DDKP3+ BAM or DDKP3+titanium!.
Update
It's 8 hours 11 mins, GPRS on since phone was charged to 100%, battery is drained to 86% ( 14% drained) Display On for 7 mins 21 seconds!
It seems like my old battery is still well and can work!

Also i need two things for the downgrade;
1) Any posts or links which describes the procedure of downgrading in detail
2) Links on how to flash the other kernels like BAM etc and reverting back to stock if needed.
Thanks.

vishuhtc- You can try installing "better battery stats"(check out xda), or "GSam battery monitor", you will see what is killing it, if you don't get your answer with this apps check this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2093542 . Also if you are using super wipe, to flash roms, try flashing without it, or with it, but manually delete bootloader data, cos it doesn't do it automatikly
khanjan2khan- check out with the second app what voltage gets to your battery, it should be something like 4.000V or a little bit more, if it goes to that, you should also calibrate it or just delete battery stats from recovery, if it doesn't get to that............. try with another charger, or with a service center.

Have you tried to get Gingerbread? Cause thats overall the best version for battery life and if not.. Then i guess you have to get a new phone

So let me get this straight. New infuse just purchased, tried ROMs from 2.2-4.2, and it is bad already...you're good. Took me at least as week to screw mine up.
Try one ROM and let it settle for a few days.

2-3 hours of real usage?
If so, that seems like right. With my fairly new infuse, I can surf web about the hours and half.

About Samsung Service Center ( ... )

Ok on start I am sorry guys for my language. I am in UK only one year so I need to learn a lot
10 min a go I back from SSC because I have problems with battery/ charging and foulty speaker
Italian Job 1.0.0 - big battery drain and battery go dawn after restart by 30-60%!
XXMC8 - no battery drain but battery go dawn after restart by 30-60%!
Stock UK GB XXLK7 -no battery drain but battery go dawn after restart by 30-60%!
So I bought new original samsung battery 1500mAh - no changes
So I bought batttery 3500mAh with special cover - no vissible battery drain, this battery can handle my phone by ~ 20 hours of playing AVI movie, 720p in loop in MX Player so very good score but battery go dawn after restart by 30-60%!
All battery was tested in my Ace 2 and in my girlfriend Ace 2 (she have fully working phone with no problems) and she have good scores on all batteries but best is on 3500mAh with special cover ( above x2 than standard)
So i went to SSC and they: (stock GB, 0 flash counters)
- take my phone without documents on free guarantees (only box)
- I must come back for that phone in this friday
This above is for + but:
- they **** that work because I have in my ducuments copy a lot of bugs! (street , town)
- they checked my speaker in noisy room (it did not take nearly as booming)
- for those guys after restart when phone loses 30% battery power is normal!
So I go after tomorrow for my phone and we will see ( They will make updates to JB! and they change speaker/ charging module)
Photo for proof attached
If they dont repair my phone I do not buy samsung phone NEVER AGAIN!
EDIT: 3 hours waiting for a response about taking my phone!
EDIT 2: that 3500mAh battery must be loaded 8 hours to get 100% form 0%. (standard charger )
I really want to know what the whole battery dropping after restart thing is about, forever happening to me and sometimes the battery completely dies. It was the same on my original Ace S5830 I got a few years ago.
If you find out, please tell! haha.
After receiving the reply I upload it here
Have nfc version and ni problems with battery with much using and sometimes little bit playing i rech two days
I dont have problem with battery (any) but with phone hardware
I must agree with you guys regarding battery drain. It's suspicios and I am also aware of a fast battery drain from 100% to 65% in just a couple of hours, or very fast after a restart.
Maybe this is the way android should work. I was thinking there was a problem with my phone, but seeing similar behaviour with yours, it must be something related to the android system.
I'm on JB me1 and i haven't this battery dran problem. After the night i just lose 3-7% battery
When I have 100% and I off my phone and turn on battery go down to 50-60% immediately in one secund! It must by hardware foult...this is not normaly working android, for me
Really i don't have sth like that so that isn't real android

I thought that is not really a battery draining. But it just about battery calibrating. Your phone need to calibrate the battery. Thats the problem.

Really??
However, I've never done any battery calibrating..but I read in some thread, need to calibrate the battery, so there will be no battery misdisplay on the battery icon...logically, I thought, our devices will some time miscommunicate with the battery because there are no battery parameter to make the system understand how much the battery stored....

its normal to see 99% when unplugging from charger, 3%-10%(Max) drop on rebooting. Battery is usually inaccurate after charging, what I do is plug it in then reboot. then it displays the right value after unplugging, usually my battery status is really inaccurate but it returns to normal afterwards (it'll show charging icon even when unplugged and charge to 100 then stops and returns to real level). I don't believe in this calibrations and have found enough proof its useless, I think most xda users agree too. Try searching some threads.

[Q]Battery Problem

Recently i bought a new battery for my ace plus as the old one overcharged while using usb tethering stuck at 100 for hours and then turned off my phone. After recharging it normaly the battery life was reduced greatly.
The problem with the new one is that when it completes charging after 2 hours which is normal it stays at 99% for quite a time while using it and after that it drops 1% every 2-3 minutes if im using it to browse or play games. It takes 1.5 to 2 hours gaming to turn off a fully charged battery now. The 99 stuck thing is normal ?
Calibrating and deleting battery stats didnt help.

The problem with the new one is that when it completes charging after 2 hours which is normal it stays at 99% for quite a time while using it and after that it drops 1% every 2-3 minutes if im using it to browse or play games. It takes 1.5 to 2 hours gaming to turn off a fully charged battery now. The 99 stuck thing is normal ?
Calibrating and deleting battery stats didnt help.

vickyg, I've also experiencing the same issues,
I have done battery calibration several times and tried juice defender, from 5-8 hours of battery life with average usage, my battery only improved to 12-13 hour battery life,
I've figured out that, the problems wasn't with the custom ROM or stock ROM. :silly:
I've dig some research and found that it may* due certain hardware problems, not sure
(going to sent my ace plus to samsung center soon)

if you are on cm 10.1 then you have good battery life
and if you are on stock then you must change your battery

I must agree, I've been using Inspiration and cm10.1,
cm10.1 had proved longer battery life (with average usage)

that's the problem, I've reverted safely to the stock rom (month ago), found that the battery problem is still there,
I when to samsung and they said, my battery are just fine, however that time I refused to let samsung to keep my phone for further diagnose,
that's why i've been experiemental with either inspiration and cm10.1, and found that in cm10.1, I have at least 3hour+ more
well, If I've not mistaken, I still under warranty,
vickyg, do you think I should sent my phone to samsung?
