[Q] Loosing lots of power when phone is off - Galaxy Note 3 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hey Guys,
I have a SM-N900 and its about 4 months old.(sold my old note 2 and got this ) On Average the phone lasts 24 hrs or so in my usage.
But This is a problem i noticed and wanted your opinion and help.
I switched off the phone yesterday night with about 38% charge remaining at about 1 am.
I turned it on at 9:30 am and it was on 16 % and within a min 15 % and needed charging.
How can the phone lose so much power when its off ? is this normal?
Kindly help.
I reset the phone about a month ago and started from scratch as i was having some battery lasting issues (after getting 4.4.2 update) and the reset solved it.
I don't think this phone had this prob from the start but cant be sure as i almost never switch off my phone .. just restart it.
but now i am wondering if i have a faulty samsung battery

[Q] I9505 Terrible/Very unusual battery performance!

My galaxy s4 is just over a month old.
I run my phone with power saving on, lowest brightness, wifi/sync/gestures/bluetooth/4G/gps/location services/etc all off.
Suddenly at approx 55% my phone died and wouldn't turn back on. I couldn't understand, but when charging it and checking battery stats it had apparently drained 55% just spontaneously.

I thought maybe this was a rom issue, so I wiped all data/cache/battery stats and installed CynogenMod 10.2 v28/08/2013 with only google apps installed (sync off) and as you can see with the following images, I barely used my phone and I am still experiencing the same issue - my phone is spontaneously going from [..}% to 0%. There's just 1.5 hours screen usage in the whole charge cycle. I can pull a maximum of 4-5 hours out of my phone if I don't touch it, and seeing some people racking up even days on their galaxy, I'm sure this isn't normal.

I'm at uni for up to 12 hrs a day and desperately need a solution to pull a longer day out of my phone, as I rely on it heavily.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
I'd be sending it to a service centre for a warranty fix if it were mine.

[Q] Unusual battery drain

Hey guys, I've had my G2 for about a month and a half now. The battery was absolutely fantastic for the first month. I could go 20-25 hours without needing a charge. Now a days I can barely get 15 hours on the phone. I did a complete factory reset on the phone and that did not fix the issue. I did not install any other apps since the reset, kept the screen at 40%, switched off all bluetooth and NFC options, yet I still lose 5-8% in my pocket every hour. My question is, could it be a physical problem with the battery itself? What are my options?

Battery issues

Dear XDA,
Since a few weeks I began experiencing problems with the battery of my Galaxy Note 4 (SM-N910F).
It all started with the phone lasting a lot shorter per day and suddenly shutting off at around 5-8% battery left.
Today it was the worst I've ever experienced. I make a short list of what happened.
Charged to 100% overnight and taken charger out at 7:30
Went to the gym, 98% left after 1 hour idle
Bumped an extra 4% when transferring files from PC at 15:10 (from around 78 to 82%)
Watched 10 minutes of Under the Dome and did some Whatsapp
Read an article on the internet
Phone was suddenly at 28% at 19:00, shut it down for a bit
Powered on at 19:25 with only 18% left
Phone died at 19:30 with 14% left. 2h and 40 min Screen On Time. 12 hour standby.
Still able to boot but can't get past coloured Samsung logo
LED Notification stays blue and can keep booting for about 30 more times.
So basically my phone died after 2h and 40 min Screen On Time with still some charge left.
This is the worst I've had so far.
The weirdest part is that the Notification LED stays on after trying to boot it once. The only way to remove this is by taking out the battery.
When the phone was new I was able to at least get 4-5 hours Screen On Time depending on brightness.
Things I tried to solve it:
Full charge cycle and emptying it
Factory reset
Checking for unusual activity (wakelocks)
I've checked for any wakelocks but I think this might be a defect instead.
Can anyone please help me? Any advice is appreciated! Thanks in advance anyway!
Kind regards,
Daniel Collignon
Anyone?!

Try a new battery, it can become 'weak' after a while.

Don't worry ! I have gone through this too . A log or a screenshot of BBS , System battery graph would help us . Please share it
well my phone is n910H. it lasts less than a day and it dies when it reach 30% and when i connect the charger it gives me 0%. does this means the battery is faulty or is it a software issue ?
Me too!
I have the exact problem stated in the op. I am pretty sure it must be a callibration issue because I've tried too many times the *#0228#. I've tried taking out the battery and putting it after some minutes. I've tried off-charging, on with screen off charging, on charging, fast charging, slow charging, everything and I have at most 4 hours of use, with 1 or 2SOT.
Sometimes I charge it and it stops at 70 or 75%. Today, it stopped at %50 (off-charged) and I removed the battery, waited 5 minutes, put it back on and it showed 100% (still off). Battery lasted less than 1 hour (okay, I was playing candy crush and clash of clans ).
I use my phone without the power saving mode for a snappier performance, but it's impossible that the battery lasts so little time.
Could you solve it? or just bought a new one?
Battery drain
I have same issue on my Note 4 for a last few months. And it's just getting worse.
Today it dropped from 48% to 5% and turned off.
I even took it to Samsung service and they told me that everything is OK with phone and that I have to change charging equpment.
I did that and it didn't help. It's happening again.
Help please?

samsung grand prime G530 0% battery

my mobile is 6 years old (2014) and has been working well, the battery lasted around 2 days idle and 1 day using considerable ammount of whatsapp and camera until yesterday 2020-05-02
i went to sleep and now 8 hours later the phone was turned off, i tried turning on when it booted to the system it was on 0% battery and turned off right after
i put it to charge (still the original 1ma charger and usb cable), and it charged at least faster then usual (from 0 to 100 in more or less 1 hour , should take at least 2:30 hours)
using androind stock rom 4.4.4
is there anything i can do to fix this, or is it a sign the phone is dying?
thanks

have you tried to "calibrate it"? maybe it will help you with this problem. I do not say that it will be 100% good, but it should improve this bad behavior.
