Since I rooted my GS3, my battery gets to 20% and without fail every time, my phone shuts off and won't shut back on? Any advice? I used odin to root and super su recovery. Thanks in advance!

Have you calibrated your battery? After flashing you may be required to calibrate your battery

Try turning it on without the battery in, while it's plugged in to the charger (obviously), if it won't turn on at all, try to flash the stock 2.3.3 via nvflash using this thread

If that doesn't work try flashing cwm recovery via nvflash using this thread

Good luck! Hope this helps
well first off shame on you for trying to flash a rom with a low battery that was prob not the smartest thing to do second if you have removed your battery and charged your phone and it still wont boot or anything well then you have a bricked phone sorry

Thanks a lot man, it doesn't turn on at all without the battery in. I was using clockwork recovery to flash the ROM. What do you suggest I do from here?
If you can't get into recovery, then you did probably brick your phone, so you'll need to follow the instructions from the first link i posted earlier to flash the stock GB. Then follow the second to flash cwm using the second link, then flash your rom again

If your battery got TOO low, since there's no auto-shutoff while in recovery, it could be too low to take a charge or even allow the device to turn on.
Try turning on the device with a different, fully charged battery. If that works then your battery fried.... at which point it may still be salvagable.. you'd need to hot-swap the battery. that is, turn the device on plugged in and with a GOOD battery... once it's on, then without unplugging, pull out the good battery and QUICKLY insert the bad battery, which will allow it to start charging...
Now, this of course would involve you booting into RECOVERY since you don't have a working ROM, but that would still apply.

proper battery calibration i would suggest
get these apps first
current widget(its a widget..so yu need to add widget onto your screen)
battery calibration
charge the phone completely..not until the battery shows 100% but until the current widget shows 0/1 mah (it might take hours too..for this to happen even after 100%)
then stop charging and immediately wipe the stats using battery calibration app
then let it discharge completely(i.e. until phone switches off because of low battery)
then charge it completely again and then check the stats

If all fail, try to do "temp root" (instead of perm root), temp root does not modify any system partition nor recovery, you can try the link (or Google it): http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1161283 (I never tried it), after temp root is done, should be able to remove the battery stat file (I believe it is /data/system/batterystats.bin) and reboot.

battery percentage not accurate on mytouch 4g slide cm9.1

battery percentage not accurate on mytouch 4g slide cm9.1 ....i charged my phone for 6 hours it gives 36%,i unplug it and reboot it and it gives 94%,after another reboot it gives 72% just wondering why it keeps fluctuating and the batt stats as been wipe but still the same please kindly help
Try discharging it completely, then charge up to 100% without any breaks. Then, again empty the battery and charge to max. Then, for the third time, once you're done discharging and charging up to 100%, don't disconnect the charger, manually delete batterystats.bin in data/system, and then disconnect the charger.
...The above solution might work. Might. Yeah.
thanks please is there any other option?
Use Battery Monitor Widget. Put the widget on your home screen, monitor your battery at all times, gather enough data, and then calibrate it.
If that still does not solve the problem then... wipe cache, dalvik, flash a new kernel.
If that's no good either, then switch to another ROM.
If you still cannot see light at the end of the tunnel, then... buy a new battery.
If, even then, life still betrays you... then... thoroughly mix 2.34 grams of sugar and 5.09 grams of powdered gold in 155.71 grams of warm distilled water. Drink the mixture and hopefully, your life will change for the better.
I've got your back. :fingers-crossed:
thanks for getting back at me....my battery works great on the stock rom when i tried switching back but its just malfunction on cm9 and cm10 as well...i.e battery percentage not accurate...well,i will give it a try and please how do i flash a new kernel
Flash WildKernel Reloaded on either CM9 or CM10.
1. Download the zip file and copy it to your phone's SD card.
2. Boot your phone in Recovery. Wipe cache and dalvik cache.
3. Flash/Install the zip file.
4. Reboot your phone.
5. Empty the battery, charge to 100%, wipe batterystats, unplug charger.
That should do the trick. But if it still fails, try flashing a different ROM. AOKP, for instance.

This is something I've seen this device struggle with foor over a year. HTC failed this device and community.

Batterystats.bin is automatically wiped when the battery charge. So doing all that crazy calibration is honestly a waste of time.

I had to buy extra batteries if I wanted to stay on the bleeding edge of development.
For some reason CM9 was the same way and it took ages to fix. Its just something your going to have to compensate for if you plan on staying with the device.

Download kernel of choice...make sure your s-off then wipe cache and dalvik then flash in recovery or...if your s-on download kernel of choice. Flash it in recovery (for modules to be flashed) then boot into boot loader and run put the boot.img in your SDK/fastboot dir and run fastboot flash boot boot.img and reboot.

Battery Not Recognized?

So randomly my brother's Galaxy S3 stopped recognizing receiving power from the battery. He thought maybe the battery was dead but we've tested with my battery (fully charge) and nothing happens. When plugged in with a full charged battery it shows the battery level indicator screen with an empty battery. Any ideas? Have flashed phone back to full stock just in case that was causing issues.
EDIT: Realized the battery is recognized but phone is not getting any power from it. With battery in I can boot into download mode. Without battery in I cannot boot into download mode.
Also re-unlocked bootloader, flashed an old version of CWM and cleared battery stats. No dice.

Did you take the OTA to 4.3 before you downgraded? If so you have a soft brick and can repair it in download mode with ODIN and the stock 4.3 rom file

It's not bricked. If I give it enough power through the charger port I can boot into android just fine.
Maybe the battery just crapped out? (Maybe need New battery)

[Q] Battery not charging!

Hey !
I rooted my Xperia S to the newest firmware 6.2.B.1.96 using DooMLord's method. It worked well for some days, but then I got this battery not charging issue. Before my phone used to get full charged overnight, but now it doesn't even charge 50% (full day and night). Sometimes it's stuck at 1%. The service menu shows- battery good.
What to do?
should I go back to the original kernel? or can I do something about it without changing the kernel?
please help!

I would go back to your original and see if the problem still exists. If it doesn't then I would try another method to update the firmware of you phone.
