Hahah thanks so much ?You're right, there are things you can do, but ultimately, battery health and life tend to be unreliable to predict. Oh, and to comment on another thread, glad you got your laptop situation worked out. Hope you enjoy that new 14" MBP!
Is your charger original?update, battery down to 0% and surprise computer is very slow now!!!
I don't expect that about the slow, take some minutes enter to this forum a write this.
Reason?
I have no idea however it should have worked.yes, sure, comes with this mac.
Based on my knowledge, the charger itself should be enough to power up a MacBook.you think removing the battery, and plugged can make this thing running at normal speed?
is weird, I mean the battery is on 0% so to my is dead, but why runs slow powered, I feel like if the charger don't give the enough power?

The MacOS software will not make a difference in my opinion. Definitely.I'm on 0% if I put sleep, back to 1% and runs normally but after 1min back 0% and run slow.
I'm on Mojave, do you think If I upgrade to Big Sur fix something? (maybe stupid question but)

Try to calibrate the battery. From 0% to 100%, or vice versa.Update: I open it and remove the original battery, yes is very inflated, pics attached.

I replace it with a new battery, and now even the trackpad is clicky again, so yes the inflated battery push the trackpad.
Now the computer return to his standard speed, back to his normal life.
BUT!!! My new concern, the NEW battery says: BATTERY IS NOT CHARGING, why??? is on 60% but don't down any, around 6 hours with the power charger and the battery don't up or down.

note: says power source: power adapter, so the power adapter it seems is fine?

thanks again, I think the new battery is ok.Try to calibrate the battery. From 0% to 100%, or vice versa.
Try SMC reset and NVRAM reset as well.
Otherwise the new battery can be defective. But I do not think so
Yes, actually I would not recommend to do this however it might be beneficial to do for only one time, so that the battery can be pushed to operate normally.thanks again, I think the new battery is ok.
calibrate the battery from 0% to 100%? that means dry the battery to 0% without the charger, to later start to charge it?
Try SMC reset and NVRAM reset as well (yes but big problem, the default keyboard don't works lol, I'm using an external one).
note: yes I know this 2013 macbook pro needs a replacement but I want rescue it, is a good machine, runs fine. I'll buy the mini m1 pro on march or when apple release it but for now I'll need rescue this.
Yes, actually I would not recommend to do this however it might be beneficial to do for only one time, so that the battery can be pushed to operate normally.
SMC and NVRAM resets are internal features of MacOS and Macbooks. Try them anyway.
Is there any new info by the way, did it work?
I keep the faith, I'll go to do that! 7pm here, I'm back in 5 hours! thanks.Looks like you might have a problem with your logic board.
You need to drain the battery to 0% dead. DO NOT CHARGE IT FOR 5 hours. leave it alone.
Fully charge it to 100% TURNED OFF. DO NOT USE IT.
When light on charger turns green, let it charge for 2 MORE HOURS.
Turn it on and start using it as normal.
That is a full battery "calibration" from apple and iFixit instructions.
ok after 5 hours with the machine unplugged to try the drain the battery to zero, I plugged for the whole night, now in the morning still see the orange light, I turn it on and I see the same thing as my previous screenshot cococonut app, at 2% and not charging.
So the battery don’t drain to zero?
I feel the battery is good, maybe is other problem with power contact or something? Mmm
im confused as well.
your battery is the same brand as OEM/original Apple (SIMPLO).
im not sure, BUT it maybe something wrong with your logic board (a charging microchip) that isn't functioning properly to send electricity/charge to your battery.
you might have to take it to a local computer repair shop and have them take a look at it.
Just a thought, I would make sure that the battery connector is properly plugged in to the system board. I once was having a keyboard problem that I could not figure out and it turned out that I never reconnected the keyboard fully after applying new thermal paste.
