Question Samsung S21 FE stuck in an Android update loop - Samsung Galaxy S21 FE

Hello all,
I received a new Samsung S21 FE, I successfully transferred all my data etc. from my other Samsung S8.
There were then 2 Android updates performed.
On the 2nd update, the phone had to restart and is now continuously in a loop of updating as far as 24% with the Android robot icon above the % bar.
As soon as it reaches 24% the device restarts and again begins to update from 0% to 24%.
I have tried to perform hard resets or enter the maintenance mode using the power and sound level buttons, but it has made no difference.
The issue continues until the device battery is drained.
Any advice on what to do, is appreciated.
Regards,
Murrier.

Problem with my JasJar's battery and/or ROM

Hi y'all,
I had my JasJar since october 6 2005. I had some issues arround june 2k6 when as is startet shutting down @ arround 35% of battery remaining (after a heavy use of MP3 playing and GPS receiving for like 6 hrs). The state of my battery started degrading every day, till it reached the highly unacceptable state of shutting down @ 86% when playing MP3 or even shutting down @ 94%, when starting the camera.
I ordered a new battery like a week ago (expansys confirmed it's shipping last friday). But during the week-end, I wanted to update the ROM, as it might be causing the battery failures (even though I had my 1.13 ROM since dec 2k5, or sth like that). First, I got my ROM cleared, and was in the Bootloader mod. I somehow managed to install the 1.30 version (official from imate.com). But now, my phone just won't boot up! I left it pluged in the wall socket for +10hrs, and when I press or press n hold the power button... nothing! When I presse the reset button, the right LED flashes red for 0.5 second and nothing. If I hold down the two "action buttons" and press reset, it asks if I want to restore factory defaults. I presse "0" (as in "yes"). reboots and same quick-flshing red LED.
I really really hope it's a battery issue and that it will work without any problem when I get my new bat'

Battery status changing up and down at random

Hi, I've got problem with my battery. It sometimes happens, that my battery status drops e.g. from 50% to 10%, after restart it goes to 25, after restart to recovery mode it shows only 9% and after another restart goes to 25. What to do?
I tried to calibrate my battery, delete battery status, flash another rom, but no result.
I tried let my screen on having a photo presentation and I managed to have screen time on about 10 hours. So it seems that battery is OK, but the dropping of status happens and its annoying.
Somebody has a solution?
Thanks a lot.
What do you mean by battery status? Is it the one that is in settings or status bar? Anyway this might be caused by having certain apps on when you open a lot of apps or high usage apps. It could also be when you installed new apps, they could be running without you knowing also. Or it may be some software issue causing that to happen since it seems your battery is OK.
Sigh. I have this problem too - it's been documented on this forum but I forgot which thread.
The source of the problem is that the mis-calibrated fuel chip. Somehow all recent samsung tablets rely on a faulted algorithm (i won't go into the technical aspects of it) to calculate the remaining battery percentage, and the accuracy of such a calculation degrade over time. The only solutions are 1) use a safe pry tool to open the back cover yourself and reconnect the battery - a risky procedure I won't recommend 2) Send it back to samsung and have them fix it.
All qualcomm chip based tabs/phones don't have this problem - it only happens with samsung chipsets.
Thanks a lot for the answer, however, not a good news...
My Tab S 10.5 sent to repair center because of unable to charge my tab after setting it to charge (battery at 7%)...
I was unable to charge... powering charger won't do anything... Could it be related to this problem ?
I got the tab s ehh about 2 weeks from launch and everything works fine. Could it be the new ones?

Don't know... I got an answer from repair center: tablet rooted, not under warranty...
As this is an hardware problem (I can't power on or charge it) and I can"t even access recovery or download because of no life on my tab :'(
I mailed to customer services with complete explanations on my problem... awaiting their anwser...

How did they know you rooted it?
You win !!!
I don't know... As I can't power on my tab even with power supply I just can suppose that they just plugged my tab to an "automatic robot diagnostic tool" and seen that the Knox fuse was turned 0x1...
This is the only suggestion I can make...

[Q] Moto 360 not updating battery percentage while charging

Hi guys!
I received the Android 5.1.1 update on my Moto 360, but now while charging the battery percentage won't update on the charging screen. Only when picking up my Moto again, and placing it back in the charger will update the battery percentage to the current amount.
So my question is: is there a way to fix this? I tried rebooting my Moto, and plug the charger out and in again. But nothing works..
Android Wear version: 1.1.1.2006643
Google Play Services: 7.5.76 (2002306-534)
Android OS: 5.1.1
Android Wear app: 1.1.1.1956917

Mine update every 1-2 minute. So it only update around every 2-3% for me. You sure, you waited long enough?
i noticed this too. prior to the update, the % would increase until full, now, say if you put the watch on charge at 21%, it will show 21% even though it IS charging.
only when you take it off charge does the true charge rate show.
i could factory reset, but it's not that crucial for me to do all of that when the watch is charging normally...

This is exacly the problem I have as well, I really hope there is a simple fix. Or else I have to reset it which I hope I do not have to do
go ahead @Rikrr , reset that sucka and be the guinea pig...
OK, so I went there and reset my Moto 360. Now it seems to be working properly again. Before that I got an update of the Android Wear app, but that didn't fix anything. Now it all works properly again and the battery percentage is updating again when charging.
Full reset
I found I had a few bugs and had to factory reset the Moto a few times to full clean them out. It would get stuck at pairing, the lock if removed would randomly lock while on my wrist. All good now.
I'm having the same problem but I woke up to 84 percent after it being on all night then not wanting to fully charge all the way is there a way to fix that or should I contact Motorola
Sent from my Nexus 6 using XDA Free mobile app
Best advice I've seen is factory reset the Moto and remove from the phone then pair the devices again.
having the same issue since getting a 5.1.1 update... It never fully charges if I get to use the watch at all its for a very short time before dying again. Resetting it seems to be the only fix at this time until a patch comes out
having the same issue here , even factory reset did not solve the problem
same problem here
i'll probably do a factory reset
i did 3 or 4 of those suckers and I still have the issue..
Some solution?
Hi guys, I just bought one and now I have the same problem :/
Watch battery status doesn't update
The problem I'm having is that the watch since the latest Android update won't show battery below 98% after an entire day of use and then suddenly shutdown due to no battery. Even when charging, charging starts at 96% after 12 hours of wear and goes to 100% in a few hours but never reports below 96-98% on any watch face nor on settings of watch.

Battery Level stuck @80%?

I can not seem to clear my Issue of the battery always showing 80%.
I have reflashed back to Stock, but still the same problem.
Even when I had TWRP recovery installed it showed as 80%.
Any ideas how to fix this please?
you have infinite battery, be happy!
I wish
Fixed it by flashing Open EU H815.kdz file once again and now the battery use is showing correctly.
Edit: The problem is back again!!!!
After several hours when it seemed okay, I put the phone back on charge and Bingo.
Stuck back at 80% again, even on my other original LG Battery, and to top it all i have a stuck LED on faint green.
WTF???
I had the same problem before, how many apps do you have installed? Does it charge in safe mode? If not, does it charge to 100% when the phone is powered off?
Tried Safe Mode and the same problem persists.
The battery seems to charge fully but the OS is not showing it correctly
Hmm, in my case, it was always stuck at 74%/75% and it doesn't charge more regardless what the indicator says. What about if you powered off the phone and charge, does it actually go past 80% and to 100%? I fixed my problem as I had 739 apps installed incuding system apps so I greenified everything except for those I needed and that fixed the problem, not only am I getting more than 2 hours of battery life regardless if the screen was on or not, it's now 12 hours or so of battery life with a few hours of screen time but the charging is fixed. Before I used to also have problems installing in Google Play Store, it would actually sit there doing nothing after the download and install when it feels like it even after a hour or it can install fast.
Tried charging while turned off and still gives the same reading.
Last night I reset the phone and left the battery out for 30 mins before re-inserting and setting up the phone once again.
So far it seems to be fixed and showing correct battery %.

Sure, see attached.... Please note that I am including the system apps in the app count as this is what's reported by Titanium Backup *root. I was wrong, I seem to still be getting the stuck battery percentage indicator which can happen at 73/74% or even 97%.
It seems the stuck battery charging % problem came back when I changed the brightness to 100% Auto but went away when I changed it to 0% Auto. I had the problem at 38% Auto too.
Is there any workaround? I just flashed my LG G4 from 10a to 10e and Rooted it. And It happened exact the same.
After a reboot I didn't have Service IMEI Null . This happened twice in a row, after that it magically resolved and now I have Service and IMEI... But after some reboots I started noticing that LED green turned on and the 80% Stuck Battery....
Im experiencing the same issue battery stuck at 80% and green led stuck on. Issue went away however battery life was appallingly bad, went from 1.5 days battery life to struggling to last a day. Battery stuck at 80% has come back today.
I have tried factory reset, upgrading from 10c to 10e.
i'm having the same problem: battery level stuck at 80%, network set to 3G but not actually connecting, and the inability to charge the battery when it is in the phone - even though it says "charging" the percentage kept dropping (tried different chargers, cables, batteries, and even wireless charger - i can only charge using a separate charger). the battery not charging started about a week ago. the 80%/3G issue started this morning.
no root or any other mods, very few apps installed. i've had the phone about 6 months. verizon. 13B. 5.1.
i did wake up the other day to a frozen "firmware update" screen, but it has not come back, and i've checked for updates (to 6.0 maybe) with no success. this "firmware" screen was after the battery stopped charging, but before the 80% problem. i had to pull the battery after it sat there a few hours (it said "don't disconnect USB" even though USB was never connected, and there was a progress bar at 0%).
UPDATE: this thing may be falling apart in front of my eyes. now my service is disabled and I have no network connection showing up at all.

Try taking the SD card out, if that doesn't work take the sim card out and then back in. That normally gets the service working again for me.
I had this same issue and sent it back to the supplier, they than forwarded it onto LG who couldn't find any issue with it. Im now waiting for it to be sent back to me.
Are you using a 3rd party (non-OEM) battery by any chance? I ask because I had the same issue occasionally when using a non-LG battery. It would fix itself after a few reboots or by installing the LG battery that came with the phone. I truly believe based on my experience, and others (there is another thread related to this exact problem) that the issue is purely battery related. Even the service disabled symptom.

I don't have a 3rd party battery so I don't think that's my issue
OEM battery for me. I did remove SD card, and reseated the SIM: no help.
This is my current work around: Turn off phone. Charge battery to 100% with phone off (overnight). Turn phone on.
It seems to charge fine (and have accurate %) when the phone is off. Then it powers up with accurate battery percentage and 4G coverage. Note, I've only tried this twice, but it worked both times.
I'm having the same issue. Battery stuck at 80% and green constant notification light. Not rooted BTW.
I assume LG will investigate the issue while I am stuck with no phone for weeks.
I should have never bought a non nexus phone...

Estimated battery usage problem

Hello everyone, I'm using Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 with latest Nougat update. I have a problem with battery time usage after hard reset.
Yesterday, I charged into 100% then I was doing factory reset by entering recovery and select Full wipe, then I was rebooting to first boot,
then I used for restoring data
Today I'm getting 27 % on battery, then I'm turning off and charging into 100 %
and after all, I have this problem in battery usage time calculation , It shows 'Learning using patterns' from yesterday.
Solution please
Thanks
It says "learning usage patterns" and it does exactly what it says. It's still learning, and it means that you should give it a few days after hard reset to get back to normal. It's not a bug or a defect, just something happening after every hard reset
