So my question is. is this a battery problem or devices or software?

Does replace a new battery fix this issue?

In my experience as a phone technician, that kind of issue is most often the battery. There will usually be a 0-2% drop after a bat pull because of the required power for boot up. Does the battery have any sort of swelling to it? If so then it's undoubtedly the battery.

  • no swelling. it drops extremely fast not just 0-2%. mostly 10 - 20%.

  • From your observation, does the phone charge faster than it used to? Often times a phone will charge faster as the life of the battery diminishes

  • I strongly believe it's the battery. Erratic readings like that tell me the battery is going bad. It reminds me of a " hollow charge " where it states its at a certain percentage but in reality its much lower. The only way to be certain is to ; 1. Factory reset phone after backing up info then experiment. However a battery replacement will likely solve this.
