I've just joined the dead battery club with my 6800 tab..
won't charge at all.even stock charger no icon nothing....
been on charge all night and have tried numerous things no response.
haven't bricked it went flashing anything just have been busy
Lately haven't used it and must have drained flat.have read before
once they get flat they won't charge as need a small amount of power
From battery to activate charging circuits.
What's the best battery to put into it? Stock one on ebay for 24 usd
Just thought I would ask but is there a bigger capacity one that would fit?
Anybody done this before just looking for ideas..
i will take the battery out and try charging it with a 3.8v mobile
Charger or camera charger by using some wires if any success will
Post up if works...thinking got to put small charge into it then can use wall
Charger.
Well ordered a new battery from eBay 28 bucks delivered...
Just decided to open it up and play with it tonight and got it charging now with the old battery.will let it charge for ages before turn on.new battery still in mail.
Got it working by unplugging the battery for a while and reconnecting to wall charger.note before doing this it would not charge no matter what I used..eg 2 amps etc
Not sure why it works but read it somewhere and worked for me too.
Tab seems to work sometimes and charges ok with old battery then later i turn it on and nothing..
wont wake up even with wall charger plugged in.never had problems with deep sleep before,
maybe a couple of roms ages ago but the one im currently using hasnt done it before and been
using it for ages.im guessing its the battery playing up.anyway got my new one in mail today
and then tab wouldnt start again and i know its not that flat.I decided to change the battery and are
charging now will leave it on charge for ages till full before turning it on.
Do i have to now delete the battery stats?
thanks..
My P6800 is also dead. Won't charge, whatever plug I try
Just ordered a replacement battery + tools for opening the device. Hopefully that will fix things.
I had very similar problems to MRBR7. I was about to order a new battery, but they were over $60 on ebay at the time. I ended up just buying a new tablet - a Nexus 7 2013 - rather than putting money into the old one.
However, I decided to experiment with the GT 7.7, so I took it apart, popped out the battery and hooked it up to a specialized charger than I have to remote control cars/planes/copters. The charger "conditions" LiPo batteries - discharging them and then balanced charging them back up. That worked. After the special charger did its thing I put the battery back in the GT 7.7 and it was happy.
Since then, though, I've had several mysterious and spontaneous reboots. I'm thinking of putting the stock ROM back on it to see if that will stabilize it.
Another weird issue is that the tablet doesn't seem to track how much battery power is left very well. It can drop 10-20% in a few minutes. I know it's not really dropping, but it is certainly weird. Now that the batteries are cheaper on ebay I may order one and replace it.
Edit: Update:
I did put the stock ICS back on my 7.7. It has been behaving nicely since then. No crashes. No reboots. No funny battery behavior. So I think I'll just leave it like that. Putting Nova Launcher on it meets most of my needs for customization, so I'm happy with it.
My tab is dead again. Don't know what happened. I'll try disconnecting the battery from the tab and connect it again, and then try to charge it. It won't charge now what ever charger I try.
If it doesn't work, I might go for the nexus 9

I have a new battery that I am about to put on eBay, but it probably depends on where you are located as to whether it is worth your while. I am in the UK.

I live in Norway, so that's doable. The one I ordered on eBay took around 5 weeks to arrive...
That being said, I don't know if I will invest more in this tablet if it just keeps on destroying batteries. If I get it back up and running again I might try the stock ROM to check for battery drain.

My tab is back from the dead (again). All it needed was a little bit of power-love from the original ac adapter. Still using the replacement battery.
I've flashed it with cm11 and it runs great.

Dear all,
My 7.7 battery was dead, too. Ordered the battery replacement online but not able to open the case to replace the battery.
Tried to use the use the prying tool, pry the silver binding from around tablet from glass edge but still cannot open it even the plastic prying tool was broken.:crying:
Is there any tips or guide that can share,please?
Thanks so much

Well I think my Infuse is now a goner.
Initially had charging problems, brought it into ATT and they noted corrosion and blamed it on me, warranty voided and I was SOL.
Purchased a replacement charging port and found out that the damn thing is soldered on. Well I attempted it and accidentally lifted the solder pads.
wanna sell it? or you can try to do the touchstone mod. i pulled mine apart to see how hard it would be to do and it doesnt look to difficult. i would've done it to mine but my infuse is only a couple weeks old. just google touchstone mod if you havent heard of it. but you wont be able to send data you can only use it to charge it wirelessly.
Poor you
I bought an extra pair of batteries along with a will charger, I haven't used the charging port in months. Something you might want to consider.

On Ebay battery charger plus 2 1900 mah batteries for $15ish, which 1900mah is supposed to last longer than stock something you may want to look into, also if you do get your charger port working again then you can charge one via the battery dock and charge the one that's in your phone at the same time (it has USB port on bottom of battery dock) a also its smart charging so it doesn't ruin the battery if you leave it on there all the time

They're 1900mAh batteries, lasts me 19 hours on average. I'm sure it's more of a hassle to have your phone plugged into a wall than it is to leave a battery in the wall.

Im not really sure why, but on my old infuse my phobe wouldnt charge anymore so if charge my batterys off my dads infuse. And i was for sure it was a hardware problem. Then wen my dad upgraded phones a month later he give me his old and i was going to return my old infuse back to ebay. But somehow i fixed it b4 we returned it. Iv tryed changing roms and whiped that phone like no other then randomly after i factory reset on a custum rom it fixed it self.. idk how it fixed it self but it happend. So its possible its a software issue
Not a hassle at all. I rotate between 3 batteries, I haven't plugged my phone in in over two months... I don't see that as a hassle. All I do is power down my phone once a day to swap batteries, nothing like going from 5% to 100% in a battery of minutes. I use to stress about battery life, but that hasn't been an issue since. Its probably become what I brag most about to iphone users.

What about us users that have a nice protective case on it? I use a casemate that has 2 layers of protection, and would be a pain in the butt to remove everyday. And if you use an Otterbox case, those things are damn near impossible to get off without a struggle.
Obviously if you lock up your phone like Fort Knox then this method is not for you. I have a case mate case and I have no issue taking it off once a day, far less troubling than keeping it plugged in hours everyday whilst trying to use it.

I'm not worried about it. I have a car charger if I need to charge while out. I'll be damned if I'm going to open my case every day. If it floats your boat, go for it.
I have always had pretty good battery life with my phone up until a few days ago. All of a sudden, the phone claims to run out of battery life in about 3 hours. The battery percentages often don't make sense, it will shut down due to low battery, but I plug it in for 5 minutes and it claims to be back up to 60% battery. One time it claimed the battery was at 999% for about an hour while charging.
I haven't installed any new apps, and none of the ones that are currently running strike me as the culprit. Haven't really changed anything and haven't noticed that the phone is running hotter than normal.
At this point I think my battery might be bad, I ordered a replacement but I am open to suggestions, would really like to get this fixed, having to charge it every few hours is a pain.

Yes I am rooted running EaglesBlood AOSP release 2. It was running fine for weeks until this started just recently though.
Did you by any chance plug in an HDMI cable to your phone?
Check under the little plastic cover that covers the HDMI port for debris/a short.
I had HORRIBLE battery life for a few days until I discovered a little metallic piece of something (like 2mm across) had worked its way under the cover (from my pocket, I assume) and was bouncing around and randomly shorting the pins.
I haven't used the HMDI port but I have opened the cover and tried to clean it, will let you guys know if that helped thanks
Are you useing the DS battery driver in your kernel? That give odd reading's
Sent from my LG-G2x using Tapatalk 2
not sure, I am just using whatever came with the ROM.
Blowing the dust out of the HMDI port didn't work, I still only got 5 hours of battery life yesterday. At this point I'll wait for my replacement battery to come in and see if that helps.
Edit: I think I figured this out, something was wrong with exchange and it kept trying to sync which was draining my battery. thanks for your help guys.
My replacement battery from anker came today, it runs much cooler than the stock one now and the battery life is fantastic. I went overboard with the battery life changing all my settings and downloading juice defender as well, now i'm getting better battery life than i was before this happened.
Hi everyone,
I dont know what happened with my HTC, when I woke up this morning, the phone wont turn on at all. Even if I connect it to charger, the notification light doesnt on. I tried remove the battery and reboot, but nothing works.
My phone was rooted, S-OFFed and running [ROM]Viper 1.3.5 and still working last night, I didnt do anything to it (at least when I was sleeping).
Could anyone tell me what happened to it and how to fix it?
Thanks in advance
How long was it on the charger?
Sent from my Og Evo 4G
I put it on charger for about 30min, the light doens even go on, like, no charging at all. The phone still wont turn on
Could be the battery. I have had this very same thing happen to me with a new battery. No charging light at all, no sign of life what so ever! As soon as I poped in a new different battery, my phone sprang to life once more. It was very strange because the battery I was using had charge left last I checked and it was on the charger. When I checked the phone it had no life at all. No charging light either. If I we're you, I'd try a new fully charged battery, to see if that will solve your issue. Don't mess with the device before you try the new battery. My issue was the same as yours and a new fully charged battery solved my problem. Hopefully that's all it will take to also solve yours. It certainly can't hurt to try! It worked for me. If the new battery does not solve the issue then you have a different problem all together. But do give it a try and see what happens. Best of luck.

Hi there, you can order a good extended battery like Anker for under 20 bucks. I really hope the battery does the trick. When this happened to me, it was so strange because I was using a NEW
Battery and it had around 60% charge when I plugged it into my charger . Then when I went to check the phone after changing for about a hour it was black. I took it off charger and it had no life at all. I thought maybe the charger didn't connect properly so I plugged it back in, then I noticed I didn't have any charger light like I usually have. Phone was completely dead and it would not charge. Strange. I had another fully charged new battery I kept as a spare, when I put that battery in, the phone came back to life and the charging light worked again! I have not had ANY problems since. It's been about 5 months since that happened to me. I never used that battery again. I just threw it away. It must have been something with the battery. It would not even charge! No lights or anything! I'm really hoping this is your problem also because it's easily fixed. Please keep us updated and let us know if new fully charged battery solves your issue too. It sounds exactly like what happened to me, so I'm hopeful you can solve this with another battery. I wish you the best! Good luck!

It was the battery guys, I bring it to the HTC, and they tested it with new battery, didnt work also. So, they put in a new mobo, new battery, then it worked. They insisted to keep it a few more days to serviced it though. I forgot to tell you guys it still under warranty, sorry a lot.
P.S.: They even gave me a HTC Desire as a temp phone
Is there any way to get a an external power case to charge the note 4? I bought one of the 4800mah ones from amazon. I put it on the phone and made sure it was snug on the usb connection. I push the button on the back of the case and it starts charging the phone but after a couple of minutes the charging has stopped. I thought the case was defective and requested a replacement. I got the replacement and charged it overnight. I put it on the note 4 and when I got down to 41% I pressed the button and it started charging. After a couple of minutes it stopped as well. Is there a setting on the note that can be changed that will allow it to be charged?

Contact the seller or manufacturer and describe your problem. I don't think this is an issue with your phone. It's either poor quality battery case or 2 defective ones in a row.
Also try disabling Fast Charge to see if that helps. I doubt it will, but who knows?
BTW, have you found any battery cases that allow the pen to be removed? I asked if there was one here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=3218361
However, everyone just keeps giving me extended batteries, even though I'm being extremely specific that that isn't what I'm looking for and that I'm looking for external battery cases.
Ugh!

Disabling the fast charge did it. The first one was probably good. I have not found any of the battery cases that allow access to the pen. If I do I will post it in your thread.

Thanks and I'm surprised that worked. It was just a thought I had, lol. If you had Fast Charge on, but was plugged into something that can't support it, it should just charge at normal speeds.

I recently purchased a official Samsung Spare Battery for my N910C via a UK based online retailer. However I am having problems getting it to charge properly using fast charging. I've tried a couple of different battery calibration methods that I've found online.
Drain the battery fully then charge it and repeat the process 2 more times.
Drain the battery fully then charge it. After it's charged fully turn it on and you should notice that it's not fully charged. Plug it back into the charge and let it complete charging while the device is powered on. Then reboot the device and repeat the previous step if need.
But both of these methods don't work. Can somebody provide me with a walkthrough on how to correctly configure my new battery please?

I bought my replacement a couple of months ago directly from Samsung UK. Are you sure what you got is a genuine Samsung? There are so many convincing fakes about, which is why I went directly to the source to make sure I got the real thing. It cost a bit more, but worth it. Mine charged to 100% first time, and has been great ever since (6+ hours SoT). I never use fast charging though, always wireless charging. However, I did charge via USB the first three times, and two of those were from 0-100%. That's the only calibration I had to do. I would suggest avoiding fast charging for the first few charges (no scientific evidence for that, just my own opinion).
Other than what you have described though, I don't know of any other way of calibrating... this is essentially what I did "Use the phone until the battery goes to zero and the phone turns off. Do not turn it on. Plug in the charger and charge it to 100%. Drain the battery again and then charge it to 100%".

I would have gotten mine directly from Samsung too but they are current out of stock of the Note 4 batteries. I tried to calibrate it again but no joy. So I filled it a RMA form on the retailer's site and couriered it back to them for a replacement. Hopefully I just got a faulty battery.

Can highly recommend Anker if you have no luck with your replacement. Also PolarCell seem to have a good reputation - bit harder to get though: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00UQPU2V6
there is a good chance that you got a fake battery.
Anker success story on Reddit:

I ordered a battery and got a fake one, it didn't have the NFC coils in it (you can visibly see that there was no raised section where the NFC coils sit, and also NFC wasn't able to scan or detect anything). It also didn't have the water damage sticker present.
I returned it and bought from another vendor, new battery works great and definitely has the proper NFC coils.

Ok, so my replacement battery arrived yesterday. I got it to charge fully last night before I went to sleep. I drained it today and tried charging it but it stopped charging at 81%. I was just wondering is this because I was sent a official UK N910F Battery which is not compatible with my UAE N910C? Is that the reason why my replacement spare battery won't charge properly on my N910C?

This is a problem many people are having, I have searched the net extensively trying to find a solution, but no luck. I believe it started happening on one of the updates to 6.0.1. The only sure fire way to get your battery to charge fully is charge it until it stops charging (usually around 78-92%) then take the battery out and hold the power button down for a while then put the battery back in. It will usually jump to ~96% and will charge to 100%.
If you drain the battery below ~80% the same thing will happen. If you charge it before it gets down to ~80% it will charge fully. Sometimes you will need to unplug the charger and plug it in again to get it to charge. Hopefully they will fix this in the next update. This last update finally fixed the random boots for me. Before that I had to flash the ROM or do a factory reset about every 10 days.

What I find strange is that I don't have the same problem with the battery that came with my N910C. It just happens with the new spare battery that I ordered online!

Yes, the same thing happened to me. It would only do it with the new spare battery, but not the original. I thought the new battery was bad and thought about sending it back, but then the original battery started doing it after a few swaps also. I've bought two more spare batteries and they do it as well. I have a couple of cradles I keep plugged into the wall and usually just swap batteries when it gets low, but it gets to be a bit of a hassle as I have a defender case. Hopefully it will get fixed in the next update. Hard to believe that I have 4 bad batteries, but I guess it's possible.

I think I will try buying some Anker batteries and see if they work better. I've been buying the "New Original OEM Samsung" batteries from ebay. I just read a review about the Anker batteries on ebay and it said the "OEM replacement batteries would only charge to 90% and he thought it was his phone, but the Anker batteries last all day now." They cost a lot more, but it will be worth it if it gets rid of this annoying problem. I will post a follow up after I get them and let you know how it goes.
I'm having the same problem. Are there any batteries that are decent quality from Ebay or Aliexpress? It's all I have to choose from unfortunately. Luckily the seller is sending me a new battery but I'm afraid I'll just get more rubbish
Same thing happens with me.. the battery will just not show the precentage properly.
But what i have noticed is that when it gets to around the 80% mark and you seen it takin longer than usual to finish... take the battery out and insert it again.. it will then show up at 100% charged.
What I have also noticed is that when it gets to 15%, the power starts to drain faster than it should even in ultra power save mode.
so dont know what to do.

Sadly, the only Anker batteries I see are shipping from Canada, which is too pricey to get to Aus. Another one here is X Power, but they do look a bit rubbish... 5600mah my a**, and I doubt it has NFC

Try going to anker.com and see how much shipping from there is. I couldn't find any shipping rates, but I saw their warranty which says they will "take care of all quality-related issues with a FULL REFUND including any return shipping costs" for orders shipped internationally. You may have to make an account and put it in your cart to see how much shipping is or you can just email them. They also have Anker batteries on Amazon.
They are located in California and I'm in Washington state so hopefully I should get them soon and I will report back here if it fixes the problem. I sure hope it does because the phone is finally working pretty good except for this problem.

I found this one:
https://www.amazon.com/Anker-3220mA...QQA0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1473638501&sr=8-1
They might ship through Amazon, but you can order them at their site.
