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?

I have about the same problem as you im waiting to get my batt replaced. If it works i suggest you get one too. I'll probably get it nxt wk and I'll report here if theres any difference

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.
Hi. its a long while i hv been here. currently m on JPU which seems better any stock ROM around right now. But for last few times i hv been observing very strange. When i flash any rom for the first time with full/ moderate charge in my phone.. the backup is really impressive. but it drops immediately after I charge it for 2nd or 3rd time. its happening with most of the ROM m using. what can be the reason behind that. M rooted and calibrated my battery. using JPU last 3 days. No tweaks.
What kernel are you on? Using stock kernel or custom?
m on stock kernel.
Everything on my phone is stock and i'm not rooted so my phone is in the same state as yours. However, i am not facing any problem like yours. My battery has been on for 51 hours (nearly 56) and my battery is 15%. I would recommend that you fully charge your phone, turn the phone off (whilst it's still in charging), wait till it goes off and it will continue to charge for a while longer. Everytime you charge use this procedure and also fully drain your battery and make it go as low as you can but bear in mind that you may need your battery urgently so you should charge it if you are going to use your phone at the time.
On 3gmod 2.2.2 kernel (JPU) the battery drain is heavy. Less than 24 hrs. under normal use (not abusing 3g data synchronize, two or three phone calls, 30 min. on wi-fi...)
Exasperating.

If you read above he mentioned he is on stock kernel and don't complain about kernels because the chances are you can't make them and developers work hard to create them.
I've used a number of roms and kernels since I got the phone a week ago. I let the phone fully charge while off to get to 100% and then I wiped the battery stats in recovery. Proceeded to fully drain the battery to recalibrate. Left the house the phone at the usual 96%. Drove to work and about an hour later the phone was down to 83%. My wakelocks aren't crazy. Probably about a few seconds total. I think the hottest the phone has been was 35°C. It did freeze the other day while trying to do the calibration process. Don't know if that helps any. The battery doesn't look bad. Phone was second hand. I bought an extra battery which should be here soon. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.
Hi,
what android version are you using?
If you're using ICS, go ahead and try the following combinations:
ROM:
AndroidMe (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1421564)
Bugless Beast (http://download.peteralfonso.com/crespo/rom)
Kernel
Eugene's kernel Speedy-3 (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1401455)
With this combination I'm getting at least a day battery.
Sorry for the late reply. I'll give this a go. I've been running 2.3 for a while and was actually looking for an ICS rom to try out.
Try disabling auto-rotation in Settings > Display
It is said to be the cause of battery drain in stock ICS.
Hey everyone!
I need some help
I'm on ultimate nexus rom(4.2.2)
And I'm using xtreme rejoice kernel
Yesterday i flashed bindass boost kernel for testing purposes
And the phone started to behave abnormally
(The kernel is really good and smooth, the developer has done a great job)
But in my case, i ran into a little problems
Now my phone's battery isn't charging
Or if charging then it's not showing the increase in charge
I flashed back the xtreme rejoice kernel
But the problem still persists
I've tried using different chargers
My phone is now plugged in from 1.5 hrs
And the charge is the same
But if i restart my phone the charge increases after reboot
I've tried reflashing my kernel and rom
Even a clean install
What might it be?
Is it a damaged battery?
Or a software bug i'm experiencing
And also the colour of led till yesterday was lighter
And today it's darker
Somebody help please!
Thanks in advance!
Restarted and I'm dowm to 24%
Please somebody help!

I had faced the same problem last 2months ago. Whenever I restarted my phone it will either increase or decrease.
What I had done is in that bad condition I charged whole night and the next day I flashed back the ROM properly.
Whatever battery % was left I ended up to 0 and then tried charging and it took to 100% then I calibrated it. Its working fine for me till date
Check if it helps you and if it does hit thanks

Ok guys sorry to revive such an old thread
But i gave my canvas 2 to my mom
And now again some problem is there
The battery is only 5-6 months old and is in good condition.
But it's giving very low battery backup.
It takes forever to charge
But after charging it for sometime if i restart the phone the battery level rises.

Try this:
1. Wipe cache partition in stock recovery
2. Calibrate your battery, leave the battery to 0% and charge it to 100%, unplug the cable and plug it back for 1-2 hours
