I have OnePlus 7 11.0.9.1.GM57AA, on Stock (No Root) I have recently replaced its battery, new battery is going good with decent backup, but with a trouble. It is (I suppose) wrongly calibrated.
It drains from 100% to 1% in 3-4 hours of regular use, and then remains on 1% for next approx 6+ hours, and eventually phone shuts down. I remember something similar happening with my (now vintage) nexus 4, after flashing ROM when battery wasn't sufficiently charged & then I have to re-calibrate it.
Trouble is my phone is not rooted, tried the guides given on reddit like charging it 100% while it was off, and the boot on & charge 100% further, then drain it shut down and charge again for 5 iterations & cache wipe after that. It is not working.
Any other way to calibrate battery please?
TIA
same here, found anything?

hi all
i got my new w8 last week and i did not charge it for 8 hours ...
when i got it i straight
-root it
-install a new rom
-and bring it out
-all in 40mins or so
is it a factor?
cause now my battery only last 4 hours before going to 0%
while my sister's w8 (same model ) have 60% battery after 5 hours .ck ..
really scared man cause 4hours battery life is unusable
even in stock it's still draining ...
specs -
w8
stock kernel / rom
will buying a new battery help?
Just recalibrate it. Turn it off and charge 'till full, boot into recovery and wipe battery stats, turn the phone back on and use it until it turns off by itself.
Try calibrating the battery... but I must also add that I flashed some ROMs and when I restored the backup of my original ROM, the battery life was absolutely horrible and the phone kept overheating. I flashed MIUI and now it's like a new battery again.
there are some free battery calibration apps in market too. some latest works too.
battery calibration is very god
Very unlikely that you did any permanent damage. But I would be sure to do a few full charge cycles. As in charge to 100% and leave it plugged in for a while, and then allow to drain all the way to shut down.
Hey guys I am a long time Android enthusiast. I have one of the most popular Samsung devices which is the Samsung Galaxy fit. The problem with my Samsung Galaxy Fit is the battery. Earlier before any tweaking battery used to be normal. After I installed CM7(official build). My battery started draining randomly. At first it was ignorable but then the problem became severe. From 100% it would drop to 88% in just 2 mins use and then from 88% it wud drop to 70% in another 5 mins and the entire phone would be dead in just 3 hours at best. When I would charge the phone again the battery will also be charged randomly going from 5% to 20% and then 20% to 40% all this in just 10 mins. In no less than 20 mins would my phone be 100% charged but that's fake as the battery would drain from 100% to 0% in three hours.
Following are the solutions are tried
Changed the batter,used a brand new original battery(FAIL - DID NOT WORK)
Flashed stock Rom (FAIL - PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS)
Changed Charger (FAIL)
Recharged battery on a different phone and then inserted the battery in fit (FAIL)
If anyone has any solution please let me know. I AM ALSO WILLING TO DONATE IF PROBLEM GETS SOLVED.

You could try Battery Calibrator.. The app is available on Play Store.

Hope this will help you..
1. after flashing custom ROMS, back to recovery or CWM then wipe the battery stats.
2. calibrate the battery while device is on, i ussually use Mugen Power app (install app, choose the standard battery, charge until 100% then click calibrate, after that use the device until the phone is dead then charge until 100% again while device is off).
other Calibration apps ussually have the same steps like the steps i mentioned above, so just use one app..
3. if you still having the battery drain, maybe you should go check the hardware in some technician, coz it could be the hardware that has the problems.
My Moto Maxx is never going below 15% battery for quite some time.
I was running CM 12.1 before and I am running the CM 13.0 preview now.
The problem now seems much worse.
This could be my battery dying?
Wait its not going below 15% or above 15%? Also, did you flash the ROM with a clean wipe (no dirty flash)?
Another thing to note is that the CM 13.0 Build is a "PREVIEW" which means that there are a TON of bugs in there. I would advise you go back to CM 12.1 for the time being.
It is never going below 15%.
On CM12.1 it also happened.
When it reaches 15% percent, the phone shuts down and needs to be charged.
After sometime charging, it displays the battery as above 15% and I can turn it on again.
Mine had always done that at 5 percent. Here lately it's closer to 7 percent.
I'm on original 5.0.2 and also facing that issue... I've heard onde it's related to the use of non original chargers, or even QI chargers... Never got rid of it, even after a full wipe/factory reset...
I've had this problem too and made a post over in the Droid Turbo forums but no one ever replied..
At least I'm not the only one that has this problem.
Yeah I've always had this issue between 5-8% on my three Turbos. Stock Rom and other flavors. They all shut the phone down around there.
Solved the problem with this app: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.newagetools.batdoc&hl=pt_BR
Now my battery goes down to 1% again, yahoo!!!!
how can that app fix it?? i would think its a placebo effect as i see dificult for an app to read or fix battery info...
maybe it locks out the bad parts (like an old chkdsk on a HD)
anyway i will tryit if i see it tries to go rogue with the Ads it Dies..
Batteries in laptops and phones have a file that keeps track of battery life. They use this to estimate percentage.

still having this issue
I have the same problem. It started as shutting down at %5, then %7, now it's %15 shuts down.
The same thing on my XT1254. It shuts down near 5%, I will try to charge it with my old i9505 charger, it could be a problem related to TurboCharger.
Hello guys,
My girlfriend's phone had this issue some months ago, what I did in order to fix this issue was:
1) Let the battery drain until phone shutdown. (try to turn on again until you cannot)
2) Fully charge with an original Motorola charger (phone turned off)
3) When it reached 100%, turn on the phone but enter in the fastboot mode and wipe caches
4) Uses the phone normally and let reaches 0%.
Making these steps, the battery back to have a "normal" behaviour

I´ll perform these steps, thank you
Although you see the battery as percentage, the operating system does not see it that way. It uses lower limit voltage of the battery to shut down the device in order to extend battery life. Batteries do not like to get and stay deep discharged (below low level voltage)...if you do this frequently, you will severely hamper your battery's life.
Hello.
Recently (~one+ month ago), I replaced the battery of my OnePlus.
The problem is that I can not find any way to calibrate it. I have tried the "manual method" (fully drain then charge, then fully drain again and charge again e.t.c.) many times. I even tried to use some applications (that I really do not trust them for their reliability, but...).
Today, I have found some time and reinstalled the phone's OS (I am using Ressurection Remix - latest build). Nothing changed.
Here's the problem, with some concepts as examples:
I charge the battery until it gets to 100%. I use the phone for example till it gets to 60% (the drain is NOT quick. It needs some time till I get to that point). Then, if I restart the phone two (2) times, I get again 95-99% of battery. Then again, I use the phone till it gets to, for example, 40%. I twice reboot it again. ~90±%! If I do not reboot it twice, the battery indicator will not change. Or it will just lose 1% percent (for example, if I reboot one time when the phone is at 60%, I may get 59% when the phone will power up).
I charge the phone until it gets to 100%. I let the phone drain out the whole battery (0%). I boot it up again. No, the battery is still alive and it may give me around 70-90% (I am not so sure about those numbers, but the idea is that the phone can still operate - there is enough juice for the phone to work).
Any ideas? I really do not know what else to try.
Thanks in advance.

All generic batteries have these issues.So far,there's no perfect replacement to be found for battery.Visit Battery Thread in General section for more information.
try to flash CM 13.1.2 from BRT (Bacon root toolkit). it should work..
I just had a new battery installed in my Pixel by Ubreakifix because my battery had been draining quickly. My problem is that the battery continues to drain quickly even with the new battery. My understanding is that they install OEM batteries so I don't think that the new battery is the problem.
So, I tried to calibrate the new battery using these steps found here:
1. Discharge your phone fully until it turns itself off.
2. Turn it on again and let it turn itself off.
3. Plug your phone into a charger and, without turning it on, let it charge until the on-screen or LED indicator says 100 percent.
4. Unplug your charger.
5. Turn your phone on. It's likely that the battery indicator won't say 100 percent, so plug the charger back in (leave your phone on) and continue charging until it says 100 percent on-screen as well.
6. Unplug your phone and restart it. If it doesn't say 100 percent, plug the charger back in until it says 100 percent on screen.
7. Repeat this cycle until it says 100 percent (or as close as you think it's going to get) when you start it up without it being plugged in.
8. Now, let your battery discharge all the way down to 0 percent and let your phone turn off again.
9. Fully charge the battery one more time without interruption and you should have reset the Android system's battery percentage.
I seemed to get caught in an endless loop on step 6. After charging the phone to 100% on step 5, I would disconnect the charger and restart the phone. Every time the battery percentage would drop to 60 or 70 percent after restart. After doing that about 5 or 6 times, I gave up on that step because it didn't seem to be making any difference. One cycle of doing this tends to take several hours because of the charge time from 60 percent to 100%. So, this ended up being a many hour process. Should I have just kept repeating step 6 over multiple days in the hopes that eventually after many charge/restart cycles it would eventually register 100%?
Now the battery calibration seems completely out of whack. I have fast battery drain and the pixel shuts off sometimes around 30 or 20 percent remaining battery. Now with minimal screen on time, the battery might last 8 hours. It used to easily last all day even with moderate screen on time.
Any help would be much appreciated!
I would take it back to Ubreakifix. Tell them the battery drops from 100 to 60-70 after a restart. It sounds exactly like what you would expect from a bad battery.

Yep did that already. They replaced the battery again (for free) and still the same problem. The technician said that this has been a common problem for many pixels after they’ve replaced the battery. He claims it’s because the pixel can’t handle android 10 but I don’t believe that.
I recently bought used Pixel and Pixel XL.
The XL exhibited the exact problems you mentioned (looping steps 5 and 6 and shut off at around 20% mark). Even have this on camera (btw, split screen opening some games like PUBG with your battery status on the other side is a good way to drain the battery and show battery percentage). Not sure if the battery was previously changed but I took it back to the seller and got a refund.
On the other hand, the Pixel (non-XL) is running on Android 10 just fine. Did the battery calibration as you mentioned and it was good to go.
