Emotion r23 is doing good so far.

Batterypull at 5% and jumped to 8%.

May test again just to see if it isn't a fluke.

Update:

Battery drained all the way fairly quickly from 1%, but I did charge a little bit back to 2%.

3%+ from ONE batterypull as oppose to BM 2.2 FOUR pulls.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] lenana:
Proper gauge readings on N910H. Still have 10% battery left. Wifi on all the time. Cpu on turbo mode (using big cores).
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] PhillyD77:
Is there a way to calibrate the battery without root? I'm going to try the charge to 100 and remove battery until it it consistently reading 100percent then let it drain to 1 percent and then pull battery till it consistently reads 1% and dies but does that even work and is there an easier way haha:p

Using Emotion r23 and Skynet mod on AbstrktV5... battery life is amazing

---------- Post added at 11:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:58 PM ----------

I dont think so. The problem with calibration is this is a 3 cell pack where as the stock battery is a single cell. I know there are some workarounds for root users, but from what ive seen and used those are not 100% either. You could try 3C toolbox?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] PhillyD77:
I found that in the Google play store and it requires root as well. If I obtain temp root what would be the best battery calibration app to use?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] lenana:
I have researched alot on the matter. Most (if not all) fixes involve flashing a custom kernel. Battery calibration apps dont work for 3 cell extended battery such as ZL...only single cell ones.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] PhillyD77:
Okay, thanks for the info!
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Dorasamu:
After 2 test, I can confirm Emotion r23 works.

Any MM kernels support this battery?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] wrice4:
Just got my zerolemon today, and trying to drain the charge in it so I can perform the initial 12 hour charge. for my note 4 verizon. I have read like 50 pages and it seems there are numerous ways to "try" and get the correct battery reading changed from 3200 to 10000. Any advice which one is the best way and/or which one I should do?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] manbat:
Been running ZL battery for Note 4 since first available. Just get to know your battery. All I have ever done is fully charge the battery..12hrs, no fastcharge. Use the phone until it is showing about 10%...turn phone off a few minutes and then turn back on (not just reboot). Will jump back up to 60-70%. I don't sweat the meter not being accurate....still lasts me about 3 days between full charges.

Hi, i have got the Zerolemon battery since February of last year.

In this period I have changed two chargers for charging my phone with Zerolemon battery.

I've noticed that probably both are broken and the charging is slow now.

I'm trying a third charger (also original) for a Samsung Tab 4 and I noticed that all three chargers have 2A in output.

But I'm noticing that the plug and the charger are overheating and I wonder if this charger aren't enough for our large battery.

Could be better a 3A charger good for Raspberry?

A second question: the discharging when I upgraded to Marshmallow OS (stock firmware N910FXXU1DPD3) is very fast.

Do you know why?

Sent from Note 4 device - Rome - Italy
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] 白い熊:
The discharging seems fast because the MM kernel is showing only a third of the battery capacity — if you wait till the battery drops below 20 percent, then turn the power off, remove the battery for a couple of minutes, then turn the phone on again — you'll see it's still above 70% capacity.

You need a custom kernel with the Zerolemon mod — for 5.1.1 there's a kernel by Pafcholini — I haven't found a modded kernel for MM…

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] umby75:
Sometimes I have noticed that when you turn off and after you turn on the phone the battery grows up the percentage but I thought that it depends on some of our battery quality.

Unfortunately I can't remove the battery because I put the sticks and a wedge at the bottom between the case and the battery because some months ago I had issues about restarts of phone caused by contacts of battery weren't adhered to phone's contacts.

Anyway with latest version MM seems that the issue will disapper..

About the chargers I want to add that I noticed that the plug and the charger of this third charger overheats and probably the previouses chargers were damaged because a high consumption by our Zerolemon's battery was made..

When I was running the Note 5 ROM I used Freezas beastmode kernel and it was pretty accurate with battery life. I am now running Resurrection AOSP (6.0.1) and jdelano included a ZL type fix in the newest kernel and I do get better more accurate %'s but if I do a battery pull the % will jump by about 20% and then more quickly degrade.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ranchosteve:
Hello my fellow ZL users. I have been struggling with getting the ZL to work properly like most if you, but I decided to try a different method. I bought the Kranich 9600mAh Extended Battery from Amazon and the Samsung OEM external battery charger from eBay for $15. Now charge the spare battery and swap as needed. This gives me 3 days battery life. Another plus is that in my opinion the new case is better and slimmer making the phone easier to use I no longer have to deal with the ZL plastic tray that have already broke on me. I know this isn't for most people but it works for me.

GARBAGE!

Not only muffles the speaker, also muffles the microphone.... its ****ing HUGE, doesn't fit in your pocket, pain in the ass to get the pen out, and awkwardly heavy.

I've had it since January... only use it for theme park days/long trips/outdoors/etc.

Does anyone know what package(s) greatly affects the battery consumption displayed by Android system?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Fat Rat Bastard:
So the ZL battery fits in the Kranich case?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] ranchosteve:
Yes it does, there exactly the same size and no plastic parts of flaps to deal with while still providing good protection. It can easily be pulled off to swap the battery, unlike the ZL case, which makes the phone a tank.

[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] jayden485:
Hey guys, was wondering why pokemon go was screwing up a bit, ended up trying the stock battery, and found out the the compass part of the phone works really well with the stock battery, while on the zerolemon battery it seems to be really bad and hardly move. Any Ideas?

Well I figured out how to temp fix it.

Dial *#0*#

Press Sensors

Then scroll down to Magnetic Sensor

Mine said it was a 0 and needs to be calibrated, but rotating around the x and y axis caused the number to turn to a 3, and then the compass started working again.

But this breaks after rebooting, does anyone have any idea on how to make it stick? Thanks
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] jayden485:
My capacity seems to have gone down? Is it possible that a connection was burnt or something like that from charging, which makes 1 cell no longer work? I think when flashing a new rom Fast Charging turned back on which might have destroyed the battery. Because at the moment it feels like I only have around double the capacity of what I originally had with the stock battery.

I've fully depleted the battery, then pulled it from the case, waited a bit, then put it back in just to verify that it is fully depleted.

Then I've fully charged it and also pulled the battery to verify that it is fully charged.

But after some use, it just feels like a lot of the capacity is missing, and I'm talking about more capacity missing then from the usual that a battery experiences over time.

Thanks :)

Just got the Kranich case in the mail and put it on. It makes a HUGE difference in how you can enjoy this phone with a beast of a battery. It looks better and feels better. Zerolemon really needs to rethink their design.

At first this battery felt too bulky for me, but I ended up getting used to it and have been quite happy with it. The battery life made me downgrade from a Nexus 6P. :) I haven't been able to find a kernel that's compatible with AOSP MM ROMs for T-Mobile variants, are there any?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] mexigga:

I ended up breaking off the USB cover flap and now the phone feels funny to hold with the gap. Anyone know where I can get a new case?
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Ashton_Durkhun:
I jsut purchased my Zerolemon the other day, and after fighting to get it and the phone into the case, I charged it up (fast charge) and within ~2 hours it was down to 96%, so after some searching, I found this thriead...

However, this is what suprised me... those first few % burned quick, but now it seems to be stable. it's been around 14 hours (moderate useage early in the night) and it's sitting at 85%.

This is WITHOUT a custom rom, WITHOUT editing the system files, and WITHOUT a new kernal! I am using the STOCK rom (rooted, though, of course), and as I said I used FAST CHARGE for the first charge bc I didn't know not to...

I'm wondering if

(1) ZL has gotten their act together and somehow fixed their battery so that it reports and charges properly

(2) I somehow just got extremely lucky and something about my note's configuration made it work right the first time.

or

(3) my ZL is defective and wont last since it's working so perfectly out of the box...

Thoughts?

EDIT:

also if it matters, this is the Sprint Note 4 variant
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Hermankzr:
Hmm.. it's worth 2 try. Maybe i have to try fast charge like yours.

I don't really get huge stamina with ZL other than the ability to get some additional % after reset it when reach 5%.

This is what happened to me :

- i use it all the day nonstop to drain it to 5%

- reset battery meter via *#0228#

- jump to 30-40%

- drain it again till 5%

- reset, 17-26%

- drain to 5%

- reset again and again till got 10% or below after reset.

- charge it overnight.

That way is done only one day.

So basically i get usual battery life plus the ability to squished some juice when it's get low.

Nothing more than that.

Hmm. I don't know what i have to do. I've charge it day to day on first time with phone off but i only get that. Sometimes i reset battery after fully charged but it will likely stop the charging coz the charging current was dropped to almost not charging at all. Continue charge it all the day but still it was too slow like no charge at all. No, it's not the cable that defect, i used the usb current detector and shows the high current when i charge it from lowbat.

I wonder why i never get the 1 or 2 more days battery life like on the ZL review.

Okay, thats my story..

Will try fast charge. Let's see what happened (hope it won't blowing up my phone)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Ashton_Durkhun:
I got down to around 12% (after about 3 days and 2 hours) before I finally charged again (was scared not to charge at that point since I use my note during the day without a handy charger)

After reading through the posts I think one difference is I've never upgraded past kitkat (a lot of people said they had problems after upgrading to lollipop) so I dont know if it's simply because I'm on an older ROM or if ZL's newer batteries have a better chip in them, but after this I am a firm believer in the ZL batteries... now if I can just figure a way to get the thing into a Google Cardboard holder...
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Hermankzr:
What the f***

How you get those 3days?? I mean what you have done on first day using ZL?

I think mine was likely only 1 and half batteries inside that fully used.

I have followed the instructions to power off and let it charged >12hrs but still never got 24hrs stamina..[emoji17]

Someday i try to charge like first day but still.

No matter what, reset battery meter or everything but still no difference.

---------- Post added at 01:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:33 PM ----------

If you're a casual user maybe it's easy to get 3days. I'm a really heavy user.

Yesterday i got 12hrs with 8hrs Screen On Time
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Ashton_Durkhun:
Well, for one thing, I didn't read the instructions ;) ;P as I said, I installed it and immediately plugged in my fast charger (charged the battery to 100% in a few hours and pulled it off - no 12 hour wait), and I use the devise for a few calls per day, some light web browsing, and around 30 min of music (over bluetooth) on my way to and from work, so it's not like I'm putting a huge load on it all the time. Though I did download and play with DebianNoRoot today (the download over LTE), which I'm sure sucked hard on that battery...

I'm thinking it's the fact I'm still on kitkat (4.4.4) while you've upgraded to lollipop (5.1.1). My guess is the software the manages the battery changed and is only seeing one of the three cells (it's essentially 3 note-4 batteries strapped together) but the older version likely takes a reading directly from the battery itself...? (no idea, I'm not too familiar with the hardware or the internal workings of AOSP) If battery life is important to you, you might try going back to an older kitkat rom (though make sure to do the SD-write-mod, otherwise apps, including file managers, cant write to the SD card)
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Hermankzr:
Hmm.. maybe you're right about kitkat and you're lucky with the battery.

I have no plan for switch back to kitkat.

As i now on MM with all the huge feature improvement and buttery smooth no lag experience. With new Note5 S-pen features, Screen Off Memo, Scroll screenshot , fastest action memo, apps permission, etc..

This is the fastest phone i ever had after update to MM.

Trust me, it's worth to try.

If you have time please backup your lovely kitkat then update to MM.

Let's see how long it will survive.

If you find out a drastically drained batteries then you can restore your kitkat.

If it's the same or has better endurance, then welcome to the future..?

Would you try??
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] Ashton_Durkhun:
Well, it seems not so much now...

After a bit over a week of testing, I am not getting the same "multi-day-performance" I was getting. I'm now down to around 28 hours with light use (yesterday I had the phone on and playing music over BT for around three hours, plus some random web browsing, totallying around 17 hours and it was down to 40%.

So while I'm still getting very good battery life, it's not what I was hoping for, it seems my note4 simply cannot charge the ZL to capacity (at least not on this ROM) so I may go ROM hunting and flash something else and see how it goes, but for now, at least it lasts a full, long, day.

Solution

This is an old thread, but I needed to comment in case someone else was wanting to discharge their zerolemon 100000mah battery and not have the screen or not be able to use their camera.

Install UC browser/open browser, watch a video using the browser whole phone is at 1%, use left on screen slide on video to take display to 100% brightness. Exist app. You should now have full brightness and full functionality of your phone at 1% battery. This woks for me every time on AT&T no root note 4

To charge the battery fully, you need to take fast charge off or use a non fast charge charger. Then it will recognize all 3 cells.

Dont charge the phone when its off with original note's 4 fast charging adapter

I used this battery already more than 2 months. I haven't read any post about its minuses- thats why I have tried everything on myself.

My version of Zerolemon seems to be one of the last, cause it has hole near heart monitor and all buttons are steardy and firm.

And now the main problems which I solved by myself or with the help of forums whick would be interesting to know - cause I spend a lot of time focusing out them

1. Fast charging ---- Dont charge the phone when its off with original note's 4 fast charging adapter. Its no matter if you put off fast charging- when the phone is off IT WOULD CHARGE IT WITH FAST CHARGE!!! I have usb monitor of volts and Mah - and it shows 9volt when the phone is charging when it is off. I simply use any other 1+Mah charger. It takes whole night to charge phone (approximately 6 hours with 2Mah adapter from my old note3).

2. Phone battery level accuracy-- From 100% till 40% it goes down in one day. Next day from 40% till 1%. You could use it one more whole day on 1% but it is not convinient, cause some features of phone could be restricted(flashlight- camera-backlight) it depends on android version and if your phone is rooted or not(mine is not thats why backlight goes down). I tried to charge few timed with the help of Mah meter. When the battery drained fully it charges 10345Mah what is not bad. When it drained to 1% and I switched it to adapter - battery took 6500-7300%Mah(depends how phone was used) - here we can see where this 1% takes its longlasting life.

One more very interesting thing to know-how which you can use is *#0228# number which you can type where you make calls and then choose ok to calibrate battery. I use it when it drains to 5% and less - then it becomes 40% or so. Next time when I type *#0228# it goes to 33% - I do it 7-10 times untill battery is dead. It could make working some features which dont work with "battery under5%"- and the most important thing that it gives you the understanding how long this battery could live for you not to be in bad situation when you need phone and it is not working.

And to summit - I am satisfied with long lasting work of battery,cause my original battery after 1 year of worked for 4-6 hours(yes I am heavy user) but such not cheap battery should show accurately the level. Zerolemon should take back all sold batteries, cause their good name now is uder suspicion.

Sorry for my English - I am not a native speaker,

This device model name kcx-017(google certainly help you). And it costs 5$ on aliexpress. I watched few reviews about it before bought it and there said that it shows almost corectly.

Sorry but I dont want to install that battery monitor. I can really on that device. That isnt NASA research to find if there was few mAh more or less))))
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] spidey_rwm:
UC fix

installI UC browser. At 1% open browser and watch a video. Use left on screen slide to get full brightness, exit app. You should continue to have full brightness and full functionality of your phone at 1%.

This works for me every time on unrooted AT&T note 4

The hyperion 8000 mAH battery works fine, and reports the correct % always. Mine became swollen up after a couple of years and I just replaced it with the zerolemon. I wish I'd just gotten another one now.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] debernardis:
Thanx a lot for your suggestion. The Zerolemon case is way too bulky. I bought the Kranich combo, now I have the Zerolemon battery in the Kranich case which is much handier in my opinion, and the Kranich battery waiting for its turn.

I also have the external charger but I'm reluctant to crack its cover to accommodate the big batteries.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] MtnDew31693:
I know this topic has been beaten to death, but I figured I would add my solution to the battery read issue since I haven't read it on here yet. This is simply a method for "pulling" the battery without having to actually take the case off. I purchased the ZL battery a couple days ago and have gotten great battery life from it (2 days 12 hours with 12 hours screen on time) but got really annoyed at having to pull the battery to get an accurate reading. After spending the weekend reading through all the guides and posts on rooting and flashing custom kernals, I have decided that is not for me. So what I did was pulled the TPU case off and pulled the battery. I then took a dremel and shaved off about a half a millimeter of the plastic case directly above the two left most battery contacts. Then I took an exacto knife and cut a very small slit in the TPU case directly above that location. After that I took an old credit card and cut a small strip off of it and cut it down to about 1.5" long. The small piece of plastic actually fits nicely in the "dead space" where the S-Pen flap was so you don't have to worry about losing it. Now whenever I need to do a battery "pull" I just power off my phone, slide the plastic in the slit in the TPU case and down between the battery contacts. Leave it there for a minute or two, pull it out and turn on the phone. Definitely not a mod for everyone, but figured it may help someone on here.
[Galaxy Note 4 Accessories] -MaD-:
Could you please post some pictures of the mod. So it would be easy for non english native speakers to understand it better.

What the ..

You could have done a lot better way to reset battery gauge than what he did.

Simply head over to the phone app then dial *#0228#

I did it all the time. It's always works though

After hit the button, screen off, on again, unlock and just wait a couple seconds and or try again.

Or simply look at the number stated there before and after because the battery level shown there was faster recallibrated than the one on your status bar..
