Hello guys, im just new here and i have a little problem on my phone which is the battery...
Whenever i get to 50% or half of my battery percent it drains so much faster than the other half (100% - 51%)
I havent tried calibrating yet but im about to try it today, it drains 1% like every 20-30 secs.. my phones model is lenovo a7000-a and rooted.. any ideas? thank you in advance

The battery is beginnig to break down and fail. Replacement is the only fix, eventually it will get worse then quit on you.

Thank you, ive done calibration and seems to fix it a little, i think its just the device miscalculating the actual percentage of the battery, what do you think? Also to be specific , i just finished flashing a rom from lollipop to marshmallow back to the last version of lollipop .. problem doesnt seem to occure before i flashed :/

It would have been better if you had provided that information when you first posted. If you want help with issues, it helps for us to know the things that have been done to the device that potentially caused the issue.
Don't just say "I'm having "this" issue". This implies that the issue is a random issue that started on its own and not something you did to cause it.
It's better to say "I did "this" to my device, now my device is having "this" issue". This implies that something that you altered is causing the issue.
Failing to post the details we need about the situation leads to inaccurate or incorrect answers. It can even lead to receiving incorrect answers that don't help or answers that might make things worse for you.
If you flashed a ROM and then this started happening then yes, the battery may be out of calibration.
If it had started doing this on its own then I'd say it was the battery.

With all the great info you provided I am sure someone will be able to help
well i read earlier that someone had problems with the android.process.media has stopped... thats the problem about after a minute of it pooping up my phone just resets. no need to be a **** about it
Without info you aren't going to get any good help. A rebooting phone could be caused by many issues. So far you have given us an error. This is still very little to go on. And now since you resorted to name calling I doubt you will get much help.

That error could be cause by no less then 100 different things. Welcome to a development site. You have to provide all the needed info before we can help. With the info you gave me I would suggest to flash to a stock rom and stay there until you understand a little bit more about what your doing. I see no rom, radio, ril, mods, recovery, it flashing info at all.

That's what i was thinking, but i was accused of flaming by a guy in the Captivate forums today, so i bit my tongue
i just flashed the absolution rom and it again crashed on me and i did wipe the cache and system before installing the custom rom.
and it reboots in the middle of typing or on standby >.< it is quite irritating to be honest
Rebooting
This is caused with a bad flash, radio/ril mismatch, and other programs that have been reinstalled from a backup. I would also suggest re-flashing to a stock rom, and see if it still does it, and if not I would look at getting a new rom. You also can reinstall the one you are running and then add the apps back one at a time to see if it is generated by them. Also I suggest going back to the dev thread and make sure you have the correct radio-ril combo. Search-Research and you will find the root cause.

The absolution Rom was having some issues with battery and themes tweaks in the absolution tools. If you happened to change any of those that is probably the problem.
Random Reboot
well instead of starting a new thread I'll tap onto this one. I am also experiencing random reboots. My phone will reboot regardless if you are using it or not.The reboots can be as far apart as a couple of days or as frequent as 4 times a day. I am running a stock Gingerbread OS.(AT&T) The phone is not rooted. The phone is as stock as possible. The only apps on the phone are the ones that are pre-loaded by AT&T. I have changed the battery with a new OEM HTC battery. I replaced the SD card. I have also replaced the battery door.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Its the battery. I had mine reboot at 96% and 48%. Replace the battery.

I changed the battery twice
I have posted/whined about my battery drain and inability to fully charge past 85% in the past, but now I have realized that it might be something else, not the batteries!
I have tried 3 different batteries and no matter which one i use, the phone still won't charge past 85! How is that even possible?? I've tried resetting battery stats every time when I'm at max of 85% (since I can't get to 100%) and it doesn't help.
Is there any manual way of force clearing ALL battery related stats/resources so that I can fix this phone?
I'm currently using a stock ROM Rogers 20C although my charging issue has been there through all ROMS available.

I would say it's a hardware problem.
Your voltages don't seem to be high enough to charge to 100%.
thanks for your reply man.
You know what, I wondered about that... I never had an issue until i started flashing all kinds of different Kernals. Maybe something stuck and can't be undone! lol.
I guess I'm out of luck because i'm clearly over the 1 year warranty period.

Hmm. Why don't you try flashing a froyo ROM?
you know... thats not a bad idea. although I cringe at the thought of going back to Froyo on this thing lol.
what version is the last most stable Froyo? do you know? I'm not even sure...

Today in the morning, I wake up and see that my phone was stuck at the google logo. I removed the battery but after put it again, the phone didn't start. No google logo, no recovery screen, nothing.
Does anyone know an alternative method to start (resurrect) this thing?

Remove the battery for a while. While the battery is out, plug the phone in with both AC and USB charging.. this will help you see if it's a defective battery

What is curious is that whatever button combination you use, there is no response at all. And the phone was working without problem only a couple hours before. Even if I plug, there is no battery charging image.
Battery's dead?

Aw man and I thought I had it bad... lol. Good luck with this!
I would try getting your hands on another battery though. I don't think the phone would boot up without a recognizable battery whether it had enough power or not. Maybe someone that actually knows can say... Either way I'll try it with mine tomorrow (mine boots into fastboot and recovery at least) and let you know
Looks like trying out another battery might be the only next logical step. No response even when plugged in for charging indicates a possible battery issue.
hey...
you got a similar condition with my phone...
dont know what to do now...

I had read a lot of forums that said that with the JB upgrade (any type: AOSP, OTA, etc), after some time, theirs phones gone dead as well. Seems there is some problem with the bootloader that affect the mainframe (motherboard?). No one has been able to resolve this problem.

So you are saying that Jelly Bean bricks the Nexus S? Where have you read this? It seems like a very serious accusation/assumption.

Mine is doing the same thing. At least it turns on to the Google screen if I remove the chip labled sandisk. Its also the card that has the nfc contacts. Any solution yet?

I had the exact same thing happened to me. I installed a custom jb ROM (I was already using an earlier version of the same rom) and I noticed abnormal battery drain and in a few hours it died completely. No response at all. Tries different batteries, chargers, everything. I tried sending it in to get it fixed but I was told they found corrosion on the board which was true so it would coat 450 to fix! But I know for a fact that wasn't the reason why the phone was completely unresponsive. I went to wind to get it fixed and the guy told me that they've been getting a crap load of nexus s devices back for the exact same reason. This coincided with the jelly bean upgrade. There's definitely an issue happening with the upgrade but Google or Samsung aren't saying anything.

My lil' bro's GT2-P3110's battery indicator/notification became weird, it was started last night. The battery indicator/notification was increasing automatically without charging it. I've tried rebooting the device but it keeps on increasing. After rebooting, the battery indicator was 40% but after a few seconds it will increase until it reached 100%. It was frustrating because it didn't know what is the real battery status of the device. =(
I hope anyone can I help me out. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for your suggestion..I've already done factory-reset for the tab, but the problem is still there. Battery indicator still keeps on increasing. =(
standard thing to try whenever battery does weird stuff is use it till it shuts off, then WHILE TURNED OFF recharge completely and leave there for like 30 minutes after fully charging to make sure its "topped off" then see if the problem persists.
try hard reset or anther rom

Being unrooted has that one major advantage. Calling for support could lead to a manufacturer warranty replacement if they can't figure it out. Whatever you do/figure out, plz report back. Good luck!
My friend is having the same issue with his tab 2. He gave it to the service station. They simply flash the latest firmware and gave it back. The problem still remains the same. Even doing a factory hard reset hasn't solve the issue.

I've had the same issue in the past. I cant remember how I fixed it but I think you should get rid of the issue by deledit the battery atats from recovery, whiping dalvik and fixing permission. This of course would require a rooted tab. If you are not rooted the contact samsung.

This was happened to my phone too.
You're USB Port is damaged. You need the replace it.
same Issue occured today
i also faced the same issue today... tried to analyze it... here are my observations
1) the battery was fine cuz i played dead trigger,wild blood and dead space for 1 hr and then played 1080 p videos for 45 min to see if battery has given up..
that wasnt the case
2) Factory reset/ data in stock unrooted rom dosent help...
3)After the battery reaches 100% and if u restart the tab. it will start from 3 or 4 % and increase again... basically i think battery level goes above 100% ( yeah i know it sounds weird) and on restarting it will see 104% as 4%...
4) usb OTG was working fine so i can't find the fault the usb.. and the tab was registering charging ( the green line in battery stats) on plugging in the charger....
So i concluded that maybe there is something wrong with software rom/kernel in the system...
Anyhow I gave it to the service center... hope this gets solved soon :fingers-crossed:
Update : The motherboard had to be replaced... Seems the charging port damage cause fits in... So anyone facing this problem has high chances the charging port is damaged even if it might work fine
My wife has an s7 which I updated to the latest version 6.0.1 with sep. 1st security update, but the battery started draining super fast after that and the phone gets hot.
Is there a fix for this? I've tried resetting the phone. I would even go back to the previous version if I knew how.
I seem to have the same issue
My battery life and signal have been horrible! Constantly losing 4G ... when I lose it, my signal bars show as being full but can't make or receive calls. Been needing to reboot about 3 times a day in order to get signal - even after a factory reset ?

Some devices drain much more than others, which kind of sucks to be honest. I've heard people get amazing battery life however, I'm on your same boat my S7 is a lemon and it drains very fast. The only temporary solution I've found is to flash the U firmware, change the CPU governer to conservative and to install ampifly, greenify, and power nap and then activate the modules using Xposed.
Doing this gets rid of the drain we usually experience while our devices are idling, so the only battery drain we experience are from apps we are using while the device's screen is on.
Man, can't believe it! Since CyanogenMod is out of the mix and LineageOS doesn't support the this particular T-Mobile version of the GS7... It appears we have to resort to these measures.

Well I mean they would most likely add support if we had unlocked bootloaders in the first place... It's not their fault.
