Hey Guys!
I have a Problem: Batti is shutting down my device when it measures that only 1% of Battery Life is remaining.
How can I disable this annoying function?
Thx!

The real question is why you wouldn't want it to turn off at 1% battery remaining?
Because Iam thinking the program is wrong measuring. I just want to see how long the device is working with 1% Battery.

I know it is annoying but you will just kill the battery. These kinds of batteries dont like to be completely drained (its gonna die and wont hold a charge anymore).
If you really want to do it just search around, the info is out there.

My N1 eats battery like mad. Lost 30% in 2.5 hours with light usage: no calls, no wifi, gps or data. Just reading a document on the phone
I searched and tried this: drain battery completely, charge phone when switched for 8 hours straight but still the same :/
This is with stock Rom and the many of the custom Roms
The phone eats a lot of power trying to connect to a cell tower if the signal in your area is weak.
Mine was doing this and changing the network to GSM (prl) did the trick.
Is your area bad in coverage?

and apps that use and stay running on the Background kill battery too (Tikl)
The answer is froyo with exchange mail pushing. There is a problem with the way it obtains/verifies SSL certs and it cycles the CPU endlessly. It makes the phone get crazy hot and eats the battery. I've had to completely disable exchange email to use my phone with 2.2.

Links are not against the rules, you will be allowed to post links once you have more posts, it is XDA's effort against spam and it works pretty well.
Back to the topic, it is possible that your battery meter is not updating properly. It may say you have 30% but then suddenly you drop down a lot.
Also, first try charging your phone all the way, let it charge for an additional 10 minutes after it says it is fully charged and then wipe battery stats and see how that goes. Wiping the stats will delete the files that are related to battery stats, it is useful when you are trying to recalibrate your battery if for example it says you have 9% and then it just shuts off.

Draining should not really matter, it is not like the old style batteries. Someone may disagree with me though. Why eight hours? And it shouldn't matter if it is on or off. If it is on and you look and it says fully charged, leave it for another half and hour at least. Then wipe battery stats and see what happens.
i did let the battery go at 4% once then wipe batter stats but no luck
My battery is still draining insanely
I followed this guide http://www.villainrom.co.uk/vBwiki/index.php?title=Calibrate_Battery a few months ago and yesterday but no change!!!!
Reading documents drains a lot of power, having white all over the power-hungry screen for a long time.
3 hours, 25% - nothing unusual.

That's a bad guide, letting the battery drain completely flat is one of the worst things you can do to a lithium ion battery. It kills off the capacity.
Charge battery full (prob only take 2 hours), turn off phone charge another half hour. Still plugged in boot into recovery, wipe battery stats.
These batteries have no memory effect, so draining battery does nothing

Tried that yesterday but no luck.
Im on CM 6.1 with latest Radio 5.12..08 no task killer and battery seems worse. lost about 12 % in an hour with moderate usage
I know this crazy question but here goes. I am doing the battery thing where you need to drain your battery until the phone shuts down. What things can I turn on to get my Battery Drain FAST? I told you it crazy.
Thanks
Turn on wifi, Bluetooth and turn ur brightness all the way up. Also turn on gas and then run a background that moves.

Thanks. I had phone at 35% and wanted to try to drain completely so I could Charge overnight.
Turn screen on full brightness and play angry birds while streaming music from Pandora at full volume.
Curious why you would want to drain fully just so you could charge overnight?
When you drain the battery and then recharge it completely, it helps increase the volume of the battery to help it last longer.
huh? I think you need to do some research on li-ion batteries.
I think.he might be trying to recalibrate his battery
I kinda thought that but the post regarding increasing capacity of the battery threw me.
it won't be XDA without ways to magically improve your battery life.

I'm pretty sure he was referring to calibration increasing phone uptime and accuracy of the battery meter, rather than actually increasing the battery's capacity.
Yes that's what I was trying to say. not the best at explaining

Is anyone having this problem as well with their HD7?
I had my phone hooked up to my laptop last night recharging it and this morning I see that it is down to 32% already.
I know everyone was saying this phone wasn't that good on battery life but holy crap it cant be that bad!
Is this on my side or does the phone really burn through battery life? Oh and I"m running Deepshining.
Im running deepshining too, the phone drains battery but not that fast.
You might have following turned on
- Location
- 3G
- Data
- Wifi
If you turn these off, and em on as and when needed, the battery timing will be increased greatly.
Hope this helps
Thanks...I know it shouldnt have been that fast.
Can you perhaps tell me where to get into the comm manager? I cant seem to find it anywhere.
Also, bear in mind, the charge current from the Laptop USB port will not be very high, and certainly will not charge the device to the same standard as the wall charger...
Just took off my phone from the charger at 100% and it says i only have 10 hrs of battery life 12 if I have it on battery saver.
IS this normal?!?! It seems so low.

i had to re caliberate my battery after the mango....
How does one recalibrate it? Sorry for so many questions its just on this phone almost everything is hidden.
What is the best way to swap batteries with different capacity?
I noticed then when you put a new one it retains the old %. Wiping the battery stats helped a little but the reading is still incorrect because the phone stayed on web surfing in 3g for 30m with 1% which is impossible.
Also what app can I use to test the battery duration? like a stress tool that does the same thing in cycles so I can see which battery lasts more.
Just use the phone normally, after a few charging cycles the readings will match the actual %. Wiping battery stats doesn't really help, as it is not really related to reading the battery's state as some people used to believe.
Use the Battery Drain app by Waza_Be found in Google Play. It records the time every 1% decrease, letting you to know how long 1% of your battery lasts
Like silentmelodies said,
this will settle with your battery being fully charged a few more times.
I am using battery calibration app everytime I install a new rom.
It doesn't work The indicator is stuck at the previous level
Leave the battery out for at least 15 seconds before inserting the new battery. Then you'll get the correct reading. Don't be quick ;-)

Yep, what I also do is tap the power button to clear any residual charge, seems to allow me to change batteries faster.
its bad practice, but I pull the battery out with the phone on, but screen off. the new battery will show the correct percentage...

as i dont see any percentage of battery, it seems quite normal to me
maybe you have many apps running in background or are mislead by battery icon(without percentage) and your display is taking some amount of the battery which might mean that you are using it most of the time
its quite normal
