If you came 1 hour later the Tab never would have a chance to start again. And also do not leave it in your car. Try and get a murse or put it in the glovebox if it is that big to fitna tablet.

Maybe you should leave it for an hour to charge then remove the charger and try to boot the phone.

Skyrocket charging / battery problem?

OK my skyrocket vis having a problem I've never seen before. It doesn't fully charge. I'll leave it on the charger over night and it will stay on 20% and never goes past it. I tired different batteries, chargers even those separate battery chargers. I tired different ROMs still no luck. Also tired returning to stock but I get stuck at loop.

How's the battery drain when you unplug? Does it sit at 20% for, well, hours on end, or does it start dropping to 19% within an hour or so?
I'm wondering if it's just your battery meter glitching out, not so much the batteries themselves. Tried wiping the battery stats yet?
I'm thinking the same tj software I say try going back to stock again but this time follow the guide step by step

It starts to drop normally but gets to one percent and last about 30 minutes.

This. Go to stock, root, then wipe battery stats. Charge the battery to 100% with phone off then leave it for another 30 mins. Turn the phone on and use the Battery Calibration app (rooted) to start the calibration, then use the phone normally and take it all the way down to 0%. Repeat with the other two batteries before switching off of stock. That should go a long way towards solving the problem.
Stuff
I went to GB stock, charged with phone off for over 8 hours, says only 30 percent life. The charger i used is OEM samsung and works fine with my other phone
Dunno take it back

How much screen time is the key, even on WiFi. Screen kills this battery. Appears like you have a LOT of on time.

What's your point? Most phones last way shorter than that. Be lucky that it lasted that long! Unless you have a maxx or somethine, this is really good battery life.
If you're not satisfied with the battery life order an extended battery, I just got my Anker 4400mah battery today and so far I'm loving it! The extra bulk actually makes it easier to hold and use the phone.

You charged your phone a bunch of times.

I had a maxx so maybe I'm used to that. My last phone was a razr hd. Here is right now with 18 min.screen time. While sending this it has dropped to 68. If this is normal let me know. I may have to go back to razr hd. I'm on stock but thinking about cyanogen.

What's your screen brightness level? You can't have it at 60-100% plus all the crap I see is running and expect out of this world battery life. A ROM change isn't going to help you there.
EDIT: Look at your awake time compared to your screen on time, whatever all those apps you have running are, they're eating up your battery, check mine out below. You really need to stop a lot of that stuff from running all the time, your battery life will increase exponentially.

Something is draining your battery, like mentioned maybe rogue app, like wolf put it best.try rescan media, it'll help.I have a 2200mah anker battery.vs stock.I run plenty of apps no power saver options on.
Also no I don't do bump charging, this is off one straight charge

All that red in your signal line really kills the battery too. The phone is constantly pinging looking for a signal that but can't find. At least is my non-technical understanding.
A new radio may help. Or putting the phone in airplane mode when you are in a bad area

Why did you charge so many times? Running the battery down most of the way then fully charging tends to keep your batteries stronger longer.

I usually charge it off my PC with no problems or from my wall. Yesterday I flashed hyperdrive ROM and the phone went from 23% to 0%. I assumed the battery needed calibrated so I did just that. It was on the charger for 8 hours and got to 20%. I flashed bone stock ROM with stock kernel and now I'm losing percentage on charge

Try a different cable
Another cable should do the trick. I had the same problem and used an old, thicker LG cable and it fixed it.
