I did a thread earlier whereby I installed a replacement battery in my Mate-9 as the original had started to swell. I did it myself.
Today I notice that the recharging of the battery has become inconsistent, although I have managed for 2 months or more already with replacement battery. Sometimes it charges normally from 3-100% in 90 minutes, other times it won't charge at all. Sometimes it charges faster when turned off, other times it won't charge turned off. A full charge runs as normal for me up to 2 days usage. I cannot determine any pattern as to when it will charge or not charge. It seemed to happen after a recent Huawei system update. I'm using build 9.1.0.252 on model MHA-L29.
** Would a factory reset help at all, or is changing the battery the cause of this does anyone think - or maybe something else I could do?
Thanks.
This seems to have been Huawei system related for me. The poor battery recharging happened after a Huawei system update. Now Huawei has updated my system again to 9.1.0.252 (C636E7R1P8patch04) and the recharging procedure is normal again.

Ok, so over the past couple of weeks I've had more than a few occasions where my battery will drain very rapidly.
It happened again tonight, and I watched the battery % indicator drop from 48 to 15 over the course of about 15-20 mins. Once it hit 15 it then shut down completely, apparently completely drained, as I put it back on charge and it restarted charging from 0%.
I got the 5.1.1 ota update (Stock EE UK rom) last week, but it's been no help.
I've attached a screenshot of the battery usage. On screen time has been about 3 hrs today.
Anyone any ideas? Would it be worth rooting, or is it a dud battery?
Also, using the Nova launcher BTW.
Well. I haven't that problem but got a very similar.one was charging.
My phone had battery dead and the plugged the fast charge when it was off. The charging image displayed the battery in 8% after a few minutes as normal, but when I powered the device the battery indicated that was charge at 56%. I was shocked and immediately thought that battery had a problem. Then I used the device hard to get the battery drained but was normally going down. Then restarted device and the battery indicated 18%, much closer to the real charge.
Anyway, I had this issue on my old SGS3 and then remembered that I had to delete cache from recovery. Once I made it the battery started to work normally.
The fact is that I'm on G920I with the Indian sotck version of 5.1.1 and I never had rooted or flashed my SGS6 afraid of tripping Knox. So I recommend that you. Delete cache from recovery and check battery. If the problem persists definitely your device is bad.
You may have a defective battery. Return your S6 back to Samsung for battery warranty replacement.
Recently had to replace battery.
Phone was shutting almost immediately after it was disconnected from charger. Charging status when not switched on showed the battery kinda going in reverse. Phone was really odd as it would suggest the battery had 100% charge and then within minutes of disconnecting it was shutting down.
I tried a factory reset/refresh with no change. So I ordered a Genuine replacement battery off flea bay and installed that last Thursday.
Initially phone seemed ok, then wen a bit weird and shut down even though charge was like at 70% or so. Wouldn't restart until plugged in and then in shutdown mode the battery/charging indicator would show 0% and then very quickly showed 70%. Good bit though was it was going up and not down like before.
Fully charged phone overnight. It then seemed really good and lasted until Tuesday with 66% charge still showing. I had not installed FB or Twitter which made a huge difference. Then yesterday it just shutdown again. When plugged in showed 0%, within minutes back to 70% and then charged to 100% in the space of an hour or so.
So I am looking for any advice. Is this just calibration issues that the phone needs to get past. Is it possible the phone has corruption int he ROM.
I appreciate it might be a hardware fault but seems weird that the replacement battery is clearly showing a big improvement suggesting battery was EOL after 2 years use.
TIA

Same problem here i will try to install the oficial rom of xt890 if works i back here if not i don't know what to do
Sooo............issue is still present. Odd thing which I am unable to confirm, due to rnadomness of shutdowns, it that I think it is slowly learning the state of the battery as it originally was shutting down at 70% after 2-3 days on standby. then 66% hen 56%. I did a clear cache partition and a fresh install but still the issue was present.
Clearly the new battery is lasting longer than the old one, just the phone does not seem to know to reduce the charge indicator all the way to 0%.
Anyone any idea why this might be happening.
TIA

Just to add i'm having the same problem.
Symptoms started last week running the stock kitkat rom so i ordered and a fitted a new battery. Initially everything looked good phone said 100% left it over night and noticed it had shut off when i came back to it. Plugged it in to the charger and it said 0% so i charged back to 100%, booted up android and almost immediately it begins discharging rapidly, i would say within 15 minutes its back down to 0%.. I've done this a few times now even left it on charge overnight for 8 hours but its still discharging rapidly everytime. The craziest thing is even if it says 0% in android i can still boot in to recovery and flash away so clearly there is charge in the battery its just android thats out of sync.
What i've tried so far:
Different wall chargers/USB leads/Outlets
Wiped everything in TWRP and flashed CM11
Factory Reset several times
Various battery calibration apps
My next step is going to be trying RSD to flash the stock ROM but beyond that i dont know what to do.
I'm experiencing EXACTLY THE SAME ISSUE with my Razr i, replaced the battery and it's still discharging very fast
Eventually managed to resolve my new battery issue simply by fully charging and discharging several times. It started to hold charge after the 7th charge and after several more discharges it's now up to full capacity.
Hi, I installed the S3 update over the air to my Korean S2 a couple of days ago. Everything seems fine except for issues with the battery. I Can take the watch of the charger after an overnight charge and wear it all day, powering it off before i go to bed in the evening. When i shut it down the charge can be over 50% but when i power it back on in the morning the charge is just over 10%. If i leave it powered on but not on charge the percentage will increase over the next couple of hours back to just under 50%. The problem is i can never be sure what the true state of charge is, so i am unsure whether it will last the day.
Anyone else having this issue or know how to fix it?
I have problem with battery. Battery is discharging really fast.
That's weird. My battery life seems pretty good. My watch has been off the charger for 5 hrs and I'm still at 94%

Yeah, it looks like that first 2-3 charging cycles were not good, but today I have really good battery life. ... So my problem is solved.
On the old firmware I could wear it 16 hours and put it back on the charger with over 60% left. Since the update I am down to 20% in four hours. I've done 2 hard and one soft reset to no avail. The battery thing on the phone app says its my watchface and I should use a dark one but I am. This, frankly, is a show stopper. I can't recharge 2 or 3 times a day. Any idea how to reinstall the R734XXU2DPG1 firmware? That worked.
Apparently a couple of recharges fixes the battery issue. Don't know why but it does. So far at least.
Hi
I just updated my gear s2 classic yesterday with the new ota, my battery doesn't even last for 2 hours now, before it gave me 1_1.5 days. In battery usage it shows 22% usage by contacts and 19% watchface even though I'm using the stock with no customization and even the background is same as default for menus.
I've denied the permission for gear plug in for contacts even then the drain is too fast.
How can we fix this, any ideas.
Hi,
I've a strange phenomenon regarding my Honor V10 (European model). I'm using my original charger and I know from experience that it takes approximately 1h:25 min to charge my phone to 100%. Recently, I found out that my phone charges very quickly to 100% in like 50 min only or so. After disconnecting the charger, I notice that it stays at 100% for a bit long time, then it depletes very quickly an amount of like 10%-15% in a very short time and I'm not really doing anything on my phone (and I'm sure I don't have any misbehaving apps in the background), then battery depletes in a normal pace thereafter. Any idea about what's going on and how can i fix this siutation without fully resetting my phone?
P.S. I'm waiting for EMUI 10 in the next few days/weeks. Can the update fix that issue?

Probably the battery has gone kaput. Try clearing cache and finally a full factory reset, if the issue continues contact service center.

Try fix above from anu3682.... Otherwise change the battery
Hello guys,i bought poco f2 pro global a week ago.My problem is the follow:
When i put my phone for charging the process go to 89% and freeze there.if i disconnect and connect again the charger then its make it 100%!?u can wait 5 h but no more than 89%.
Its very anoyning ,coz when i got to bed i put the phone on charge and at the morning i get it on 89%.
Factory reset didn't solve it.Any ideas?thx
Try draining the battery to 0%, then let it charge uninterrupted and see if that helps..
Hi if you've seen some of my posts. I got a Poco F2 Pro and on the second day it started showing 1% battery charge all the time. As well as an overheating issue and would close the camera after 5 seconds. Not sure what I did other than turned it off and let it charge a few times. For no known reason it started working fine. That was a week ago, so haven't had the problem occur since.
I'd check while the phone is off what the battery level shows as. If it still shows 89% it might be more serious, otherwise could be a bug

ITs not uncommon a miss-calibrated battery. Make a full discharge, wait all the time until your phone is power off. Once completely drained, try (without charger) power on some times, to be completely sure is totally death. Now, make a complete Full cicle. This time, the phone should reach 100%
Thank you all for the suggestions. I discharged the battery to 0 %,then plug it again and the result was 92%.So no luck..I really hope that this is software bug and will be fixed with miui 12 .Will be very unlucky if my unit is defective.the phone is a week old .what do you think,if i download the present software and flash it , maybe that's will help?

This so called "calibration of the battery" is total BS.
At every boot with at least the latest 4 Android versions it will "calibrate" itself and nothing one can do about it to "trigger calibration" or that kind of stuff.
When the battery won't charge beyond 89% something else is causing it, faulty battery or software related.
Did you unlock your device or is it still locked?
When locked try to manually download the whole rom new from the update menu and reflash it.
Then check if it charges correct of not.

Some devices that I have seen with the same behavior would not think the same as you, obviously with a healthy battery. A bad battery can behave abnormally too, but I doubt that is the case.
And yes, it can be called a ... "calibration", although nothing to do with the supposed magic cures of deleting the battery statistics file. What happens is not that % battery is lost or that the battery is not fully charged. In fact, if the battery is fully charged, it is the count that fails. This is perfectly evident, when the phone reaches 1% it stays in that% much longer than usual, because the phone really did not have 78% (for example) and is not full drained yet. Once the battery is completely drained, the margins are recalculated correctly again. It is not a bad battery that is not fully charged, it is fully charged, what happens is that the battery reports incorrect data due to a "calibration" mismatch.
In any case, the partner will be able to tell us perfectly if it worked, or not . I repeat, there are many phones that I have seen with this behavior and many that have returned to their being. It is clear that if the battery is bad it will continue to be bad. It has happened to me in the past with a pair of Xiaomi phones, the last one a Redmi 6, is not uncommon

Hi
Sorry , i don't have anything intelligent to say about battery calibration (except that if the battery sound faulty, take advantage of the phone warranty while you can!)
So... I just saw @Snah001 had a F2 pro and a Mi 9T pro... Could you please give us your quick opinion and advice here ? https://forum.xda-developers.com/poco-f2-pro/help/poco-f2-pro-t4137287
Thanks so much
Cheers !
