Battery suddenly drops to 0% - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hi,
Since about a week ago my nexus suddenly started to die at about 30-40%, it depends. I don't really care about the fact that my battery is empty, but the fact that it happens on 30% and I don't receive a notification at 14% is really annoying. Is there a fix for this?
I'm running Aicp with stock Aicp kernel.
EDIT: Since I stopped charging my battery percentage hasn't changed for about half an hour.
Edit 2: I rebooted and now it's 41%.. Really strange

It's getting worser now, it usually turns off when it's around 40% and around 50% I lose connection with mobile network and can't connect any more. I've tried different radio's but had no effect. I'd really like to know how to fix this. Or is the only solution to buy a new battery?

Take the back off the phone and see if your battery is bulging. This sounds like a battery issue. I had similar symptoms on my last phone. I took the battery out and spun it like a top.

Yeah I had it with my old galaxy Y too, my battery became so fat the battery cover didn't fit any more. But that happened slightly, this came out of nothing.

Haha, I was with friends and suddenly I noticed that I was able to spin my phone, and together with the fact that the battery was acting strange I thought it must have been swollen. And yesterday I saw a little lump.

Nexus 7 battery drain

Hi. It has been two weeks since I got the nexus 7. At first, the battery lasted for a long time. Now I'm realizing that it is draining much quicker than it is supposed to. What should I do?

Better battery stats to check the wake locks and cpu spy to see if your device is deep sleeping

Charging issues?

Has anybody experienced charging problems ? I recently got my nexus and had to put it in charge yesterday, but it won't. It will charge one second but not the next
Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
Try popping the back off and check the battery connector.
Alot of Nexus 7's have a loose battery connection.
(Its just as easy as popping a phone back off so don't panic )
This question must have been asked at least 50 times already. Do a search, you'll find some good answers.
But the problem is that its not charging at all

Battery acting weird?

I don't know if it's the battery or maybe the rom's battery display. I was at 33% when I plugged in my charger bam 100%.I rebooted and everything is fine. Should I worry about it?

No. It's a known bug. We all have it once in a while.

Was just wondering if it is normal to have the media server with that keep awake and is this a wake lock?

Or maybe it's the 3g connection.
You have a corrupted media file somewhere in your storage. Find it and delete it.

I only opened the 3g for the Xda app..do you think it might be because i left real racing 3 on the background? If its a corrupted file hire do i find it?

Your battery stats will not be accurate until you drain more of your battery.
