S6 won't hold 100 percent charge. - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi all,
I've had this weird problem after upgrading my bootloader n modem to latest on a sm-920w8.
While charging as soon as I hit 95 - 98 percent charge my phone stops charging n jumps to 100 percent but when I remove the charger it drops to 98 percent instantly.
Anyone know what I can do to fix?
Any suggestions is much appreciated.
Thanks.

Have you recently fully drained your battery? If you have, it's just recalibrating. Will happen a few times and then go back to being normal.

I haven't done a complete drain cycle just yet. I'll try that n post the result.
Thanks for the quick reply.

I don't mean drain your battery intentionally. But if it had fully drained or got way too low, you will have that issue of not 100%. It will get back to normal after a few charges!

Phone is stuck on a % and does not charge

Ok so my N5 is stuck on a % that I plugged it in to charge it and it does not move from there! U have rooted stock 4.4.2 and franco 23.
ps: The only way it fixes is I have to discharge it with 1% or more and then it charges normally.
Wipe cache and dvalik and reboot see if it helps

Is it *actually* not charging, or is an app/widget telling you that? Look at the battery statistics and see what the actual battery level is at.
No apps or all. Even overnight like 8-10 hours it stucks on a specific % and does not drop or chargers. It is like it draws enough energy to work... I am using the original Gnexus charger which is 1.0A and it charged nex5 for like hour and a half when this stupid error does not occur.
i'd flash the stock kernel, wipe both caches and watch it to see if that resolves the problem

Extremely slow charging above 80%

My S6 chages very fast till 80%.
Now the problem arises from 80-87 it goes like 1% in 2.5mins(charging current 600ma)
from 87-93 it goes like 1% in 4mins(charging current 200ma)
and after 93% it goes 100% in less than a minute(charging current 100ma)
once i remove from charging it trickles down to 93 very fast
the battery drain is slower than normal after that till 80%
overall battery life is bad till 40 % but better below 40
i tried different cables adapters tried charging with phone switched off ,safe mode no good
i am on back to note rom with arter kernel
i am going to switch to stock to test it but it doesnt sseem to be a software issue
any solution guys?
callibrated the battery thrice
is the battery messed up?do i need a new one?

Have the phone reach 0% , until it powers off automatically . Then let it charge to 100% without turning it on

Samething to must of users of s6.. i think the battery has some problem and didn't calibrate well..
I tried to calibrate with some methods but always same drain... so do't know..
But if your battery reaches 5 or 6 hours of sot is incredible.

Exactly same for me and I've tried 'recalibrating' the battery at least 10 times with all methods available!
For me, sometimes this rapid drain starts from 10-15%. I usually reboot the phone and it goes to the correct number and discharges less rapidly, but still quicker than usual. I experience the same thing on my tablet.
I guess it's the outdated Li+ battery technology
So the problem not from my charger or cable
Before i face this problems with my old s2 plus
And i never see that with my s6 untile last 2 week

Charging Problem

It has been just 20 days, and I have just realised that there is a charging problem with my Honor View 10.
At night, when I turn off my phone and put on charge, the phone starts charging but in the morning i. e arnd after 7 hours I see that the battery is around 70% and still its shows that its charging but actually the battery is draining because after sometime when I check it again the battery is like 68% or so and it still shows charging P. S in whole process the phone is switched off and this happens every time (around 6 to 7 times). And I am using the same charger that came with the phone. Phone is updated to the latest firmware.
I have done the factory reset but still the same problem persists.
Please you guys check and let me know if anyone else is also suffering with same issue.

Better you should visit company service center or probably honor official forum for support from company... As far as I think it is your handset problem either check with ampere app from play store to see how much current it is taken when charging , so either your charging port is damaged , maybe charging IC or maybe battery issue... Not sure though..

There is charging related bug in the latest update. Also battery drain is higher. You will need to wait for next update.

Apr 2018.. Same charging issue. Shows fast charging but doesn't
This post is from Feb and I bought this phone now in Apr. I am facing the same issue. The fast charging lasted for a day and then it is very slow.. Max 750mah measured via Ampere app. Earlier it used to be excess of 2500mah when it was fast charging.
Have you find any solution to this issue?

Honor 8 battery charges from 0 to 100% in few minutes

I changed the battery buying a new one on amazon, the problem was that when the phone was at low % it shut off sometimes at 20% sometimes at 40%. Ater changing battery i noticed that the problem disappeared for a week, but then reappeared, so i changed the charger and tested different cables but both charging and discharging are irregular, it charges to 100 in 10 minutes. So i ordered a new charging board on amazon, i changed it but the problem persists. Im desperate, i dont know what to do, sorry for my english. I thank anyone in advance who wants to help me.:crying:
could always try recalibrate your battery

I think you should change your phone's battery mate. I changed mine last week and it's as good as new now. Charges and discharges exactly how it's supposed to. My battery had similar issues before I changed it.
TRY CALIBRATION ?
1.Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off.
2.Turn it on and let it turn off again.
3.Plug your phone into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.
4.Unplug your charger.
5.Turn your phone on. It's likely that the battery indicator won't say 100 percent, so plug the charger back in (leave your phone on) and continue charging until it says 100 percent on the screen as well.
6.Unplug your phone and restart it. If it doesn't say 100 percent, plug the charger back in until it says 100 percent on screen.
7.You want to repeat this cycle until it says 100 percent (or as close as you think it's going to get) when you start it up without it being plugged in.
8.Now, install the Battery Calibration app, and before you launch it, make sure your battery is at 100 percent again, then restart.

He said he just put in anofher battery he bought on Amazon. I'm wondering at what point you stop buying parts for what is becoming an unsupported phone and just get another phone.
