phone shutting off around 15-30% power without warning

it's an older phone at this point. maybe it's losing power faster than it can figure it out? hopefully one of you out there knows a fix for this. thx

The G5 isn't THAT old, geez.

Anyway, my V20 was doing this, and it was just a ****ed up battery, misreporting it's percentages.

You can also try to do the battery stats cleaners if you are rooted, but I don't know if those even work anymore.

What I would recommend, is let the battery die, then charge it with a 900mah charger.(Something from an older phone) and let it sit without touching it.

Sometimes letting it charge with the slower chargers helps get it back to life

thanks. I may try that. though i charge my batterIES in an external charger that I guess is standard speed. definitely not as fast as charging by phone itself

The rechargable battery is kaput. The fix is to replace the battery.

thanks. makes sense. I'll keep an eye on all three, see the differences.

The battery being kaput isn't exactly true I don't think. I have 3 different batteries and without fail at 15% it will tell me the battery is dead and it will then proceed to shut down. No bettery saver, just a black screen. Phone has been doing this since I got it. Stock rom or custom doesn't matter. Not sure if this is the right place to post, I have a H850.

Phone shutting off at about 15-30% power without warning

This is the third phone I've had it was just replaced about 3 months ago I should say third replacement... Gets really hot messes up here in there... Recently I updated with the new 8.0 software... Now my battery cuts out at about 24% like clockwork so I replaced it with a new factory battery bought a T-Mobile for too much money... And it does the exact same thing... The bloody unit used to be able to do maps I could text and do other stuff at the same time and it would last you know for a while now if I do maps and a couple of emails or mean or text it's dead within an hour dot-dot-dot all since I've gotten that new 8.0 software

Definitely get a new battery, I had 2 batteries for my phone and both were doing that, ordered a new one off Amazon and it drained all the way to 1%

I'll second this. My main battery did start to swell a little besides the sudden shutdown at 15%. I also know that this swelling can eventually cause the fingerprint sensor to malfunction. Beware. Anyhow, I decided to use the "almost dead" battery to game for long hours while charging (PUBG). My healthy new battery was used for normal usage besides gaming. Hope this helps!
