When my battery get 28%... Automatic shutdown and i got 1%... ¿Some solution?
The battery is dead
You have to change the battery.
IMO you are better off buying a new phone. I tried replacing my Moto X battery 2 times, and both new batteries lasted only a few months before starting to randomly shut down again. The first battery was not original and lasted around 1 month before starting to randomly shut down with any battery charge whatsoever, It could shutdown with 99% or 1%. The second battery was original, came with all Motorola seals of approval, and lasted only 5 months, it started to shut down with 30% and ramped up to shut down with 50% or even 70%. I suppose that any battery you buy today was manufactured at least a couple of years ago, so most of them are reasonably aged even tough they didn't went through charge cycles, so It might explain why they tend to fail so quickly.
One advice: if you still plan on changing your battery even after reading this, do not use the Moto Turbo Charger included unless you really need fast charging, try to use a slower charger to try to preserve the battery integrity. Older battery + too much current and too much heat will lead to bigger fail rate. Also, try not to leave the phone charging overnight, trickle charge still isn't good for the battery, and it should be worse for older batteries.
Since my last battery started to fail, I'll be finally buying a new phone. Good luck.
Hello, I changed too the battery, I've successfully installed it in May. Compatible one (Losoncoer).
After only 4 months, I got some problems now. Almost the one described above.
The phone shows over 90% battery level, but it switch off. I try to switch on again and again but it can't boot.
Only if I plug-in with charger/power bank it will switch on, showing the same charge.
I tried also to uncharge the battery, keeping on in the recovery, till 3%.
I then charged the phone switched off about 8 hours.
No solution, switched on at 100%, after 10 minutes it went off.
Could you advise if you have any suggestion?
Could it be the battery? If I boot in recovery, it seems more stable...
Thanks.

anyone have anything to say about those chargers that use AA batteries, either one of them, or a couple that say they charge ur phone 2-3 times from discharged?
anyone have one that works? link it please?
is it a load of bs?
thanks
Are you referring to this:
http://cgi.ebay.com/EMERGENCY-AA-BATTERY-CHARGER-FOR-MOGUL-XV6800-6800-6700_W0QQitemZ270150736083QQihZ017QQcategoryZ20336QQrdZ1QQssPageNameZWD1VQQcmdZViewItemQQ_trksidZp1638Q2em118Q2el1247
I tried it and it didn't work. I first tried it with my battery power at 60%. I put my Mogul in sleep mode with no apps running, plugged in the charger using a fresh Duracell, and waited two hours. When I checked it, it was still at 60%. But about two minutes later it dropped to 30%. WTF!?!?! I tried it again the next day at 50%. This time the battery level stayed at 50% for a little while before dropping at a normal level. I have the 1% battery meter .cab installed. So the only thing I can really say is that it kept my Mogul battery from discharging while in sleep mode, which isn't very useful. Maybe I got a bad charger.
I ended up buying a second battery. It's actually easier to carry than the emergency charger. It's a pain to swap batteries, but I've only had to do it once. If you are runing low on battery power on a continuing basis then you'd be better off getting an extended battery.
I have OEM battery and it was working great for last year and half. Now a days when I put it in charging it charges the battery but my screen does not show it correct percentage it is chaged for.
If I put this battery in my wife's phone it show it is charged 100%, if I put 100% charged battery from my wife's phone in my phone it show 67%.
If I put it to charge via my phone I get led showing correctly that it is charging, even in battery status show it is charging.
Issue is it is not showing correct percentage (I think) what my be issue battery, phone , rom.....?
Old battery!!!
but same old battery works fine in wife's phone
but same old battery works fine in wife's phone.
Try cleaning the contacts on your phone.
they are as brighte as silver
they are as bright as silver but issue continue.
So this is normal?

Does a year and a half make this OEM old? My OEM Tilt battery, also 1 1/2 years old, just started giving me only about an hour of talk time from a full charge. So this is not unusual? It's annoying as h*ll, that's for sure.
I've seen the same issues between my Tilt and my wife's Tilt (actually my wife replaced her Tilt with an iPhone), so I should say between my first Tilt and my second Tilt.
The problem happens once every two months or so. I usually put the battery in the phone that shows the higher battery life and let it drain down to zero over the next few days. This has solved the problem for me so far.
If he is using a different battery in the same phone, and getting the same result, I would say its not the battery.
I'm having a similar issue, where after a full charge the phone works fine for awhile, then shuts off if i use the web browser or gps for more than a minute. After I turn it back on(and if it lets me) my battery reads only about 5%. I thought it might be the battery but even though I bought a new battery, I still have the same problems.
I've even reflashed to a new rom to try and correct the problem, but without luck.
I think maybe a year or so is about the life span for this phone. Or maybe a few escaped quality control, and we just happen to be the lucky ones.
I had a similar issue with my kaiser, then it started not charging the battery intermittently which meant id constantly wake up with a dead phone in the morning after an allnight charge.
Then it stopped charging altogether, HTC sent me a new battery which did exactly the same.
So i sent it off and it turned out to be a motherboard issue with the charging circuit.
Hope that helps
full overnight charge only charge to 70%
when i put battery for full overnight, it charge only charge to 70%. I will give it a try to drain to 0% and then see what happens. I am sure this is issue with phone and nothing to do with battery but still can not solved the problem. Can not send to HTC as warrenty already passed.
Anyone notice that when the phone is charging while off and reaches 100% - when you turn on the phone, the battery drops to 98%? From there, it can still accept a charge and then FINALLY indicate the battery is full?
I do have another battery coming from AT&T (because of overheating problems) but I am just curious as to what others are experiencing.
background info - this isn't my first Captivate and I have drained this battery a couple of times to "calibrate" it.
This will sound weird but it worked wonders for me.
*Fully charge the battery with the phone on
*Unplug charger and turn off the phone
*Plug in the charger and wait until its at 100
*Now unplug the charger and boot up the phone
C*Wait until its done booting up and power down the phone.
*Now charge the phone to 100 boot up and use normally

does it make any difference? like long lasting battery hours or so...?
the memory in the batter indicats full as i believe 90% and above or something.. it's normal :T .. but try to do what the previous poster said.. it's worked for some people
I did what he recommended and don't see an improvement in battery life. But, when I unplug in the morning it stays at 100%, it definately made a difference in that regard.
I did see a slight improvement when I cycled the battery a few times. Full charge to 100% dead.

if it's fairly new give it a week or two .. the battery should improve in a way.. if you're still truly dissatisfied then I guess get a new phone or buy a bigger battery .. I believe they'll have better batteries soon on ebay
I tried doing that charge/power cycle.. Once the phone was powered on it immediately dropped to 97%
This is the battery that overheats also..
Wish I could get my #2 captivate back.. I returned it because of the GPS problem - not knowing it was a global issue - I had the best battery life from that phone - 5 days of use easy on that one (without power cycling or anything) - The last 3 phones (all have been overheating) I'm lucky if I get 2 days out of them..
I keep saying phones because I was in my 30 day warranty, so every time I went in they did a complete exchange.. I am now out of my 30 day exchange.
The other day I went and bought a USB micro cable for my phone, which was different from the original one provided in my phone's package.
I never used it to charge my phone's battery until 2 days ago, which in the morning I attached the cable to my AC Adapter charger and started charging my battery, that charged in an hour or so. I got somehow surprised because of the speed but I thought maybe I got carried away by work.
The amazing thing is it's been 2.5 days from then and my phone still has something around 15% battery charge on it.
Did anyone here ever charge the phone with any cable other than the one shipped in the package ? Or maybe come accross something like this ? Is it going to ruin my battery ?
I had a similar situation a few months back when my battery was out of juice for about 4 or 5 hours (it ran out in the afternoon and i couldn't charge until much later on that night). After I charged it over night i got about 2 days out of mine too.
Wp7 probably still lacks a consistent and accurate way of telling battery life, so the phone may show it is fully charged when it is not.
Ones i charge the phone 100% i then browse my photos and broawse apps... and suddently my battery is half empty in under 2 hours time... its strange. because im not playing games with it.
I can strech my batter put over 30 hours, but that with turning everything off, It would be interesting to know how you use it, and what you have installed and turned on or off.
I have 2 or 3 days battery life when the phone is on airplane mode. But less than 1 day with regular usage.
the problem is Radio in my opinion.
In the process of charging my One for the first time. Read a little about how with new Li-ion batteries, you don't want it to go dead.
Now, this may be a matter of semantics, but if I let the battery run down the first time and the phone turned off, is that technically a "dead" battery? I would bet that if I tried to turn the phone on again, I probably could and there would be some residual charge left.
I'm charging the phone right now until full (with it off). Has anyone seen a 4+ hour charge time with the phone off?
ps. I'm charging it off b/c I have another phone I can use in the meantime.
Thanks.
Just don't try to over-empty the battery or leave it empty for days.
Yeah, the phone takes eons to charge. Make sure you're using the AC adapter to charge or it will take even longer.

A lot of the information out there for how to care for batteries is old or just plain wrong. It is hard to figure out what to listen to, but I was researching exactly what I should do to care for my battery last week and the conclusion I came to was:
It is good to run the battery down to 0 about once a month.
The battery will last longer if the temperature is kept lower, both for daily use and for the potential lifespan of the battery.
Batteries have a certain number of charge cycles, and one full discharge and recharge is one full cycle.
You are prevented from reaching dead 0 on a battery as a safety measure.
You are prevented from overcharging the batter as a safety measure.
If you wont use your phone for a long period of time, don't store it with no battery or a full battery.
The best way to treat your battery is use it, and charge it whenever you need to.
Hope some of that helps.
