Hello, i'll recieve a new battery tomorrow. (original htc sensation one)
Do i have to charge it with the phone closed for like 2 days before actually using it ?
No need
Just take couple of charging cycles..
Do a full charging at 1st , use cellphone till battery downs to 6-7%
Recharge again to 100%
Do this 3-4 times to see battery backup

Ditto. This procedure should be just fine. Use your phone as you would normally. When it gets low, plug it in and charge it up to 100%. Do this another 2-3 times and you should be set.

Ok, just got my battery.
I didnt charge it since i got it. So i simply charge it to 100% when it gets to 2%.
After a few charges it should recognise the new battery, right?
Its not like i have to clear battery cache or let the phone to discharge completly and afterwards to let it charge closed?
Edit: it already lasts much longer
This problem was there since i bought the nexus 5 (first week of jan), but it used to happen seldom, like once a week or so. But since last 2-3 weeks, everytime i try to charge my phone, it doesn't charge and actually starts discharging and reaches 0% in some time while charging, one way i have found to solve it is to switch off the phone while charging, let it charge like that for 5 mins, and then switch back on, it gains 1% during that time, after that it charges normally.
Using original charger and USB cable that came with my nexus 5, tried using samsung charger and HTC cable with HTC charger as well as OEM charger, doesn't make a difference.
Also, since i bought the nexus 5, if the USB cable is even slightly displaced (like when picking up the phone), and phone disconnects and reconnects from charging, like the port on the phone is loose or something, this annoys me while transferring data from pc as if the phone is even slightly moved, then the Internal Storage unmounts and remounts on the pc, thus interrupting the transfer. Though this problem i have noticed is slightly higher when phone charge is on the lower side (~20%) and if i try to fiddle with the USB cable while the charge is >60%, the problem doesn't seem to be that much, though it still disconnects, but not that sensitive.
Can anyone explain what's going on?
Does the mobile display that the phone is actually charging when you have connected it to the charger??
As for your second problem, I'm sure the micro usb port of your device has become loose... Nothing you can do to fix it... May be visit a local LG centre and tell them to see if it can be fixed by opening up the device and tightening it may be?

Yes, the phone says charging, battery settings says Charging (AC), but it doesn't charge, and discharges, i don't think that some app is using high cpu while charging, because my battery discharges fine before i put it on charge.
I purchased it from Play Store, so LG would fix it then too?

Are you fully stock? If so, then perform a factory reset and see whether the issue persists. If you're using a custom rom then flash the factory images and go fully stock and see whether it still occurs.
If it does, then it's surely a faulty battery we are looking at. Since you've tried using different chargers and cables, there's nothing more you can do.
Call google customer service and RMA it.

Yes, i am running stock rom with root, tried factory reset, no improvement, currently my phone is on charging with 71% charge, now i am using my phone, testing new camera app, no disconnections, but when i use the phone with low charge while charging, it disconnects and reconnects, don't know if it's hardware fault or just software, as charging too returns to normal when phone is switched off and then turned on.
Is RMA'ing the last resort? coz i am afraid that RMA might lead to some other problems, like getting a replacement with screen bleed issue or some else issue.

Yes, what you've said is very true. The replacement device might have other problems if you're unlucky.
Are you on stock kernel or have you flashed a custom kernel? If you have then flash the stock boot.img and see.
If everything else fails you can flash the factory images from Google and go completely stock and see if the problem persists.
It's upto you to decide whether you can overlook this weird battery issue or not. If you can't, then RMA is the only option left.

hmm yeah, i would need to think about it, thanks for the help.. :good:
i think i'd wait for 4.4.3 first to see if it isn't a firmware issue.
This results are from my tests.
If your current CPU operating temperature is higher than 51 degrees celsius the phone won't charge,it will stay at for example 50% .
If the temp. Is higher than 51 degrees the batt% will decrease.
If the temp. Is below 45 degrees the battery will charge but very slow.
If you're gaming it's normal.
Leave your phone to cool down for 20 minutes and it will start to charge at normal tempo,1-2% per minute at 20.degrees celsius.

Whattt?? I have put my phone on charging while playing heavy games like mc4 where the temp easily reaches 50+*c and I haven't seen any interruption in battery charge..
Are you sure about this??
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
In my case the battery isn't charging or it's charging BUT at 1 percent in 7-8 minutes when CPU temp. Is 51-52 celsius or above.
Sometimes when it's above 55 celsius,battery percentage is going down.
I'm charging with the original charger and cable.
I,m not using usb fast charge hack.

Yes, that's normal. It will charge if the temp is above 50*c..it will charge slowly as you are using your phone for hd gaming which takes a toll on the battery..
Fast charge just means that you can charge via your computer at AC wall charging speed...
If you charge your phone via computer and play games on it simultaneously then it's normal to discharge while charging as usb charges only at 0.5amp

ok, so after some days of testing, i can say that this problem is irrelevant of temps on my device, sometimes it charges without any nags, but most of the time it discharges while plugged in, and i have to reboot the phone.. :crying:

This happened on my last phone. For me, it was from using a USB fast charge option on a custom kernel: reflashed the kernel and charging was back to normal; selected the option and it duplicated the problem.
So:
Are you using a stock kernel? Either way, I would try wiping caches and flashing the kernel (or another one).
Or, if you haven't, try a simulated battery pull (hold down the power, volume up and volume down buttons for ~15 seconds).

I know when I'm using my phone as a sat nav on the car dash it can get pretty toasty. When it's like that, it is on charge but the phone will still drain slowly... so on a 3 hour journey it may lose 20% battery or something. That is with an official HTC car charger so perhaps the results are a little unfair - think it's rated 1 amp.

hmm, yeah, using the stock kernel, was waiting for 4.4.3 before flashing with custom kernel, will try though, thanks.. :good:
Sure sure! Does it seem like it only charges when it's off?

yeah, while discharging, no matter how many times i re-insert the cable, or change the charger or the cable, it won't charge unless i switch off the phone, let it charge for some minutes and then power it on, it'll start to charge normally after that..
I'm in a similar boat. Every now and then I'll wake up with the battery being only charged to 75 or so. Since it happens sporadically it's hard to test why it may be happening. Have you found any resolution for the issue? This is using a wireless charger so a bad USB port can be ruled out.

The Nexus 5 has a charging controller by TI, that regulates the voltage and current to the battery if the battery gets hot enough lets say 50C it will stop all charging untill the battery is cooled and the charging session is re-started
The battery also has a fail-safe measure to prevent the phones battery from exploding which also does what the charging controller does, incase it fails the battery has another fail-safe mode
Hello everyone
My S3 is giving this problem lately
it used to take around 2h 40m to charge completely from zero
now it either increase percentage suddenly like 25% to 35% (does same while discharging)
or increase very fast percent to percent. and starts decreasing
I plugged it at 0% and it was 90% after 2h40m, then starts decreasing 89 88 87, currently its 86% 2h26m
What could be issue, phone, charger or battery
battery is not swollen though . its not genuine battery but first copy

As you mentioned they aren't OEM. That could be your issue. Aftermarket parts don't always work properly

tried the same batteries on another s3. works fine charge to 100%
I even tried charging while the phone is off. still it goes to 95% and then starts going down to 80s range
issue is in phone i guess. but which part it could be. usb port as it works only when phone is placed somewhere, but in hand, it will disconnect
or internal issues

Could be the charging port or the phone itself

I know it sounds crazy but I've noticed a certain charger in my home won't charge as quick as others. I'm with shapes on this. Batteries or charging port. I've got a battery for another phone that's old and does crazy things like discharging 30% instantly.

Guys, suddenly with 100% charge, the phone shuts off and restarts alone, and it's like bootloop, then I put it in charge and go. I noticed that while in bootloop, if I go in twrp I do not see the battery charge. I'll put him in charge and go. The ROM is not the problem. Another thing I noticed that sometimes when I do this problem and I charge it, I see the battery while it is charging, as when charging it off and it ranges from 1% to the% where it was actually knocking on second, or every second increases by one. Motherboard or battery problem?
the problem is not every day.
