I have installed Infused ROM, still the charging time is same as before. Is there a way to decrease my charging time?
TIA
NO
NO there is no way to do this

So I have to handle with this 4.5 hrs of charging time
4.5? damn you must run your battery down to 5%.
Entropy's kernel uses alternative charging logic that supposedly charges faster at low battery. I don't know how effective it is, but you could give it a shot.

Are you USB charging or something? No way should it take you that long.

Yes, I am charging from 5%, Even if I charge from 50 to 100 it will take more than 2 hours.
the phone is charging 22 to 25% per hour. I dont think a phone should to such a long time.

can you tell me how can I update the kernel. I am new to android, so I am not sure with my Infused RAM, can I do this or not.

I didn't understand anything in this..
Try deleting the battery stats when you are at 100%... you can do this manually or with apps like " battery calibration" free on market, or go to system and delete batterystats.bin manually, try everything i guess.
I was having same trouble when i used to change between ROMS a lot now i decided to stick with Infused 1.6 Froyo did the "recalibration" with battery calibration app, and takes a few days for the battery stats to rebuild correctly again.
But now it hardly takes my Infuse 3 hours to FULLY charge.
And you can recharge at any point even if its on 80% or 95% if you have a power aroudn charge while not using... this batteries dont get "used" for recharging them before "time" they dont do memory you can recharge at any time.. there was a whole thread about that somewhere here on XDA sorry i cant post the link just maybe try the simple way.... recalibrate on battery calibraiton and give it a couple days to generate an accurate stats.
Also recharge while not using (working....eating...sleeping...)
If nothing works maybe... get a new battery? may be faulty i guess.
Hope it helps

Clearing battery stats does NOTHING on the Infuse, or any of the first-gen GalaxyS devices, or any other Samsung phone with the MAX8998 PMIC for that matter.

Mostly i am charging when I am sleeping, still it charges @ 23% to 25% per hour. I already tried 3 different batteries and 2 phones.

it's funny (sad?) that you need to say this over and over again every single day. you'd think people would come across another one of your posts, which are everywhere, where you said this exact same thing.
Then you need to figure out the common denominator because either your cable, charger, or you aren't doing something right.
That amount of time to charge isn't normal.
Have you also tried pulling the battery for a few minutes then charging it yourself full? Don't power down, just pull the battery.

maybe try draining the battery all the way to 0. Recharging over night interrupted. And doing it once more. Not sure it will help, but I'd try anything.

Install CurrentWidget.
In the settings, near the bottom, there are settings for "operator on value" - Set it to divide by 1.83.
Then plug in your device when it's discharged below 80%.
Currentwidget should report 600 mA if you applied the correction factor above. If it reports 1100, you forgot the "operator on value" settings.
If it reports 475 mA, your device thinks it's connected to a USB charger for some reason.

The problem is people keep on coming from other devices, and they've been trained so long by HTC devices (most of which use coulomb counter fuel gauges) that they need to "recalibrate" their battery and let it "settle in".
Note that the GSII may also require battery calibration - it does have an updated fuel gauge chipset. But ours does not.

I just installe it, I will test this, once my battery is below 80%.

12 to 13 % in 30 mins, ie 4 hours to full charge, that is the problem...
Is it the same with phone off and charging as with phone on
and charging
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997 using XDA App
Phone asleep and charging and phone completely off should be fine. Phone in use will take longer.
Also, the reason I said to measure at less than 80% is because as you reach 85-90%, you hit 4.2 volts and the charge circuit goes into constant-voltage mode - in this region, charging takes longer.
Measuring time to go 10-15% is WAY too inaccurate for any remotely decent estimate of total recharge time. ESPECIALLY if that 10-15% is near the top of the battery. Our fuel gauge probably has on the order of +- 3-4% error. For example, once I saw it drop 10% in 30 minutes, but then it recharged 10% in only 5 minutes. The 10% "drop" wasn't real.
Any one has faced battery issues in endymion 3.1 ..
Myself installed three days ago and no problem till today .
Now if i connect a charger ..its showing charging but its not increasing the level......now its switched off due to 0%.....anyone knows whats the issue...
cable is good and adapter supplied with the phone is good i mean [email protected] adapter....
Endymion 3.1 is a bit outdated, try to flash the 3.4 update, maybe it corrects something. Also don't undervolt or overclock anything and see what happens

I tested the version 3.4 of Endymion and seems to have fixed the bug that happened to me with the battery.
my battery was spent very quickly with no apparent cause, but with this update seems to have solved

Hi guys, I noticed a non linear drain pattern on the nexus 5, and it was at 25% when I decided to reboot into the recovery. There it showed as 38% battery. Should I wipe battery stats or what should be done to get it recognized correctly?
It will correct itself. Battery stats has nothing to do with what percentage your rom thinks the battery is

Hi
I am thinking of buying the phone. But battery is a real concern for me (my last good phone battery wise was Z2. Since then I had the LG G4 and currently on a temp phone the HTC M7 whose batteries are horrendous).
I am almost pulling the trigger on this phone but those two concerns are quite important for me.
Thank you,

Hey on a mixed general use with 4g .You would get screen on time between 3.5 to 4 hrs. If on wifi full day 4.5 - 5 hrs Sot.

Battery life test
Battery isn't as bad as i expected it to be from all the comments I heard. It's about the same with Iphone 7 Plus that i have. It dropped about 3% overnight without charging. As for use, I haven't tested it out with intense game like pokemongo but general use it dropped about 10% every hour and a half.
Standby time is good. However, practical use without the stamina mode and my battery is already at 60% at 12 noon. This is with Wifi on; bluetooth off, location off. It's dreadful but not the end of the world. Hopefully it will settle down with time.
Edit: My phone is 2 days old.

How do you get over 5 hours of screen on time? for me on average android OS and android system take up 20-25% of the battery.
Not only on this phone but on my previous Note 7 and S7 edge too!
@dpbg, @Gkstates , @junedkaka thank you for the quick reply. I can't believe sony reduced the battery life on the phone.
Do any of you know if there is wireless charging?

That 5 hr screen on time was on wifi and continous use almost over a period of 10 hours
I dont have a type C wireless charger to test it with so I'm not sure. I think battery is okay with general use. I text, check email, browse web throughout the day and it usually lasts me until 7 or 8 pm.

That's ok. i'm on office wifi all day with intermittent breaks. cell reception is also decent. So not sure why I'm getting only around 2 hours of SOT.
My battery life isn't a patch on my iPhone 6S+.
Web browsing over WiFi slays it.
How long does the battery take to charge? Mine seems really slow, plugged it in an hour ago, and its only gone up 2%
As you can see the screen is using too much battery i my phone as a result the battery is draining quickly,is there any solution
