i535 very slow charge / no data after restart / wifi problem - Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III

what is wrong: very slow charge, 1 hour on 'ac' charge with 2 amp car charger went from 10% to 26%. if the screen and gps is going the battery is draining instead of charging(i think faster than it is without charging). it will only charge faster if I cut it off then let it charge, which it is still not very fast.
stock i535, rooted and installed latest cm 10.2 nightly with MF1 radios. I immediately had a very slow charge (both with usb and ac cords, with the appropriate chargers) Also I do not have a data connection at first boot, I have to disable mobile data and re enable, then it works. Wifi is the strangest. Wifi will connect once, but then will not reconnect until you turn off wifi then turn it back on. But, that does not always work. I have tried the following to remedy it:
imo kernel
downgrade to cm stable 10.1.3 with appropriate gapps
installed paranoid android 3.99 beta 9/16 with 10/03 gapps
all with the same results.
Side notes, with every rom install, i did a complete wipe, with every kernel install i did a cache wipe.
CWM 6.0.3.6 was installed during everything ( i thought i upgraded to 6.0.4.6? in rom manager before the pa rom install, but i guess it didnt take)
Any ideas?
Thanks

Skrocket battery stuck at 100%, multiple roms/fixes attempted

OK so I bought a phone off craigslist as a replacement for my gf, really unstable running the stock 2.3 firmware, did a factory reset, seemed to be stable afterwards but the battery meter constantly reads 100%, so I flashed it to 2.3 stock with ODIN, problem was still present, put clockwork mod on it, wiped battery stats, still was there. Installed a PAC MAN rom, still there, flashed back to stock 4.1 firmware, problem still present, and finally put the dirty unicorn ROM on it and its still stuck.
So I found a post saying to charge up all the way, delete the batterystats.bin file reboot in recovery wipe cache partition and davlik cache, power off and keep plugged in, disconnect charger reconnect and leave powered off but charging, then turn on, did that and leaving on till it powers itself off and its still stuck at 100%
Oddly when the phone is turned off upon first showing it does display the correct battery for about 15 seconds and then reverts to 100%
What is going on here, how do I fix this

u would need to try an oem battery and cable to see if it corrects the issue, if not then its probably the charging port, reading this post might help http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2493751
An OEM battery really isnt a possiblity as no places sell it locally (sure I can order it online but this is a time sensitive project) and I really dont want to dump any further money into this project if its not going to work

CM10.2 [Q] - Double restarts and lack of data connection

A few days ago I went from stock 4.1.2 Touchwiz on my Verizon S3 to Cyanogenmod 10.2 Stable.
Since then I've run into the following issues:
It shutdown and restarted itself once in the middle of typing a reply to someone in Facebook
Roughly 40% of the time when I choose to restart or when I shutdown and then restart by holding the power button, it will get to the CM loading screen (spinning arrow around the head) and then shutdown and reboot a second time before actually loading fully
Roughly the same amount of times as above, when I reboot and actually get into my phone I will not have a connection to 4G/LTE (The bars show up but I have no data connection). I have to either reboot again or disable data and then re-enable it through the options.
Once after an automatic double reboot, it said my baseband version was unknown. This only happened once and "fixed" itself after another reboot. It usually shows as I535VRBMF1
My flash steps from stock Touchwiz 4.1.2 to CM10.2 was as follows:
Rooted, unlocked bootloader, and installed CWM using the CASUAL method
Updated CWM through Rom Manager to 6.0.4.3
Booted into recovery and made a NANDroid backup
Wiped the data through CWM
Installed CM10.2 stable from the file on the CM website after placing it on my phone's memory card at root
Installed Gapps labeled 20130813 after placing it on my phone's memory card at root
Booted into Cyanogenmod 10.2
Rebooted into recovery and cleared the cache and dalvik after the first random restart occured roughly 12 hours after the initial flash of 10.2
I'm at a loss here. Did I miss a step somewhere or is there something I did wrong? How can I possibly fix this so that I have a reliable reboot and reliable data connection?

[Q] p3110 - Negative battery percentage on CM11 nightly 06-17-14

I just updated CM11 on my tablet (from nightly 04-20? or something to 06-17), and wiped cache & dalvik. I charged my tablet to 100% before doing so. When I rebooted the tablet, it worked fine (I used it for about 2 days) Suddenly, it froze (which is not that uncommon in nightly builds), so I turned it off and turned it on again. When it turned back on, it said there is -1% of battery left, and it won't connect to wifi or any sort of connection. Apps turn on but doesn't work. It doesn't turn off automatically. What should I do? I just wiped cache & dalvik, but still nope. I do not want to wipe data.... (please don't reply, "wipe data")
P.S. I use AGNi pureCM kernel 4.0 (the latest one).
P.S.S. I don't have the rom & kernel file on my tablet, AND I don't have kies on my computer (unsupported). I have no way to get the files on the tablet.

question restoring nandroid backup from different bootloader

Hi, I recently changed the bootloader to lollipop using odin and loaded Civato's 5.02 rom on my pm-900 (previously running hyperdrive rom 2.1). It was working great for about a month and suddenly, I cannot charge my tablet properly. The charging is unbelievably slow (8 hours charging only increasing battery from 50 to 74%). I tried booting into recovery, wiping cache/davalcik and rebooting. Have tried different cables, outlet, adapters; in the past whenever I had charging issues, one of these worked, but currently, nothing seems to help at all. My question (since my battery is running perilously low) is can I restore a full nandroid backup from my Hyperdrive rom days with the kitkat bootloader (has bootloader partition as part of backup) or do I first need to flash the older bootloader in odin, then restore nandroid? At this point, I just want to try to get my tablet charging again before it runs out of juice and I can't do anything. Thanks in advance for any help. p.s. I have considered that the cable connector in the tablet itself is becoming faulty and I have read about some people re-soldering connections or unplugging and then replugging in the battery after opening the tablet. I've never opened the tablet and have been looking for youtube video that might show how it's done with relation to charging issues, haven't been able to find one. If anyone can point me to one, I'd be very grateful. Thank you!

Mi4c battery not charging after Mokee and SuperSU issue

Hello people, I have recently gotten a xiaomi mi4c that was soft bricked (I know nothing about the history of this phone). I ran into some issues fixing it, but eventually i managed to flash a working Mokee 6.0.1 nightly and opengapps on it a few days ago. Today, while playing with different root apps (since Mokee comes with root options from the beginning), SuperSU asked me to update my SUbinary. Now, on the original install, TWRP was giving me a bootloop so i had to flash the original recovery, and that's what i had when supersu prompted me for the update. I didn't quite read all that it said, but i clicked normal install (i think) since i did not have TWRP or CWM (btw, is there a version of cwm that supports mi4c?). The phone got stuck in booting afterwards. I reflashed TWRP and did a cache, dalvik cache, data and internal storage wipe, and reinstalled Mokee and gapps. During this, i noticed that my battery was 2%. After successfully installing both of those, Mokee gave me the "unable to connect to google servers" error, and the phone ran out of battery (while being plugged into a wall socket). I have changed sockets and I have it plugged in, but it doesn't seem to be charging. Help pls
UPDATE: One day later, it started charging again. I flashed up a clean copy of slim6 and it's been working fine since.
