Weirdest thing just happened to me. Was in middle of bush with phone in my pocket so I pulled it out, battery was at around 70% before I left home (did not notice when I pulled it out at that instant but we're talking like maybe a 20 minute interval) and it immediately went into low battery shut down mode except it locked up so I had to manually shut it off. I figured weird, maybe something was eating the battery in the background, like maybe I forgot to close an app or something. I get home and plug it in and boot it back up and the battery is at 83%.
What would cause this to happen? Clearly the battery was not actually dead. Going to let it sit and see if it actually drops suddenly again.
Only thing I can think of is it would be using more battery hunting for a cell signal, but it should not be dropping dead in a matter of minutes. I've been in the bush before where I get a very weak signal so it's harder on the battery but it still lasts the day. Anyone ever see something like this before? It almost feels like some weird software glitch. Or should I worry that it means something is unstable with the battery itself and I should change it?
