Not charging past 70%? - Galaxy S6 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi, I have a galaxy s6 Sm-g920X (live demo unit). It auto updated to version 5.1.1 and since that time it isn't charging past 70% help!
Furthermore, if I turn it off and plug it in, it will turn on automatically! I can't make it stay off when plugged in.
Side question: How can I disable annoying low battery power notification when it reaches 15%?

Hi, the battery not charging fully has happened with a few people online and the fix has been similar. Wipe the Cache through recovery mode options, then let the battery run to the point where the phone shuts off. Then try charging and see if it goes past 70%
Not sure about the other problems hopefully someone can help you with them

Will wiping cache affect my apps, like control settings for Modern Combat 5 etc?
Thanks!
I should also have noted that I am not using an original charger. Could that damage the phone/battery?

As far I know nope, wiping cache is different from clearing individual app caches, and it won't lead to any loss of personal data or settings (including app setting)
And nope all charger leads that fit and charge your phone should be efficient and not cause any damage, I've not always used an S6 lead for my Galaxy

Wiping cache did NOT solve the problem.
Any other solutions?

Help!!

Wiping cache and dalvik... then let de battery go to 0% and turn of the Fino alone, the charge and see what happens.

Hello, I have the same problem with galaxy s6 g920x. How do I wipe Dalvik?
what is Fino?
thank you

Download a program called "Battery Calibrator"
You may need root, this should fix your problem (Just run it, and drain your battery normally)

Did it work?

[Q] Battery status not changing below 100%

Hi,
I am using Nexus S with aokp_crespo_jb_build-4
My battery level does not fall below 100% and after some time the phone powers off. I bought this phone as it is, so I am not sure how long this issue was there. It does not seem to be a calibration issue since it stays at 100% when I am charging or not. I have checked my battery on friend's Nexus S (stock) where it shows actual levels meaning the battery is not the issue.
Can anyone help me to fix this issue?
A couple of things to try:
1. Try a different charger, or charge your phone via USB
2. Change kernels
3. Wipe cache, dalvik cache, and battery stats, then reboot
4. Battery Calibration - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1489809

I have tried different chargers; same behavior via USB as well
During battery calibration the /data/ folder is empty. There is no /data/system folder or batterystats.ini file.
I am thinking of changing kernel if I'm sure it's not my phone's hardware.

Battery Drain with the Marshmallow stock rom

It is normal for the battery drain fast (2 or 3% per hour) with this version (Marshmallow) even with the battery saver on, with sensors off, with automatic brightness off, with mobile data and WiFi off, with the location off and in the background too, etc, or just me who have this problem?
I have root with the greenify installed and amplify battery.
Hi,
Try by doing a factory reset of your phone. I've found that if you do that, the parameters will go to normal and normally, no battery drain.

Do a factory reset and check if the meter is showing wrong.
Get the help of BBS or GDM PRO

That's bizarre. Have you tried factory reset + flushing dalvik + cache ?

HTC One E9+ shutdown automatically.

Dears,
i have HTC one E9+ and purchased 6-7 before from online and did not notice that device does not have warranty.
Now its started shutting down and when restart then battery goes to 1% or some time decreased 30-40% of the battery and its happen only when i start using the devise like youtube, skype or whatsapp etc but while on idle status dont face any issue.
I even did the factory reset but no improvement and then i thought could be a battery issue and then contacted HTC and they said perform below tasks and if battery above than 75% then not a battery issue.
Now i dont know what should i do to resolve this issue.
can anyone put his/her experience to fix this issue.
1 - charge the device until the LED turns green <br/>2 - turn on air plan mode
3- Go to settings > display > increase the screen time out to one hour and increase the brightness to 100%
4-then restart the device
5- Unplug it and leave it for one hour
if the battery level below 75% that is mean the battery need to be changed

Try re-flashing your stock ROM. After that do a full discharge.
Cheers

Resetting Optimised Charing and Adapative Brightness

Is there anyway to reset both above?
Think I messed up Optimised Charging as I've been using it more often, but now with my sleeping pattern getting better, I can't see it charging to 80% anymore, so I was wondering if there is a way to reset it than reset your whole phone again along with Adaptive brightness

Try to clear data of the app "Device Health Services". You'll find it under settings-->apps and notifications--> All apps

Question My battery drain is insane!

Hello everyone, I'm in trouble.
22 Ultra is simply eating battery at indescribable levels. Yesterday we went on a trip from work, I left my home with 100%. During the day I did not touch the phone, a bit of a camera but beyond that really nothing. My battery was about 40% after about 3 hours, with no screen use at all! On the other hand, a friend at work with Xiaomi came out with 100% and after 3 hours was on 85, and he did touch the phone here and there.
I don't know how that makes sense, and it's no longer clear to me what to do to solve the problem. I debloat, deleted and disabled a number of irrelevant apps but still, the battery is being eaten. How can I solve it? Please help me!
Draining battery so fast, 20% per hour while idle is not normal, so you definitely have a problem.
It looks that there are two possibilities here:
- Battery malfunction
- Some active process in the background that is using lots of processor power constantly.
If battery is damaged / not working properly, the only solution is to replace it. Still, this doesn't look like a case of duying battery.
If you have some persistent process running in the background that you can't get rid of by debloating, it can't be stopped by restarting the phone, and its not visible in the battery usage section, i would say that factory reset is the most effective option here, since you stated that you tried to deal with it in a various ways already.
You could also wait a bit until you get chance to update to OneUI 5 / Android 13, which should solve your problem, if it's software related.
Hope that you will find solution soon

I want to keep the factory reset as the last option....
Every single app that I don't need at the background I disabled from running in background.

Try to wipe your system cache.....it won't do a factory reset but might solve the issue while keeping your phone as it is.
Volume UP button along with the power button until you see Android screen
Scroll down with volume down until you reach wipe system cache and reboot
sometimes, it won't show up while you press the buttons....in that case, connect your phone to your PC/Laptop with any USB C cable and then do it.
Second solution, you can try Samsungs App Booster.....get an apk from the net. It generally helps as well.
