Dialer issues - Hero CDMA Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Why is it when I make a call, it says my dialer is up to 88% when I go to battery and what's been using battery.is this normal?

Because of the battery that you have used up to that point, the dialer has used 88% of that.
So, look at it this way:
You pull your phone off the charger at 100% and make a call. When you get off the call, you have 97% battery left. That's a 3% draw. Of that 3%, your phone call used 88% of that, or 2.64%. This is totally normal.

Ok thanks

[Q] automated phone on/off

Is there an app which can turn the phone on and off at a scheduled time or event like when the battery is fully charged? I ask because I would like my phone to turn on once the is battery full for when I do a complete battery drain then charge while I'm sleeping so I don't miss calls or texts because my phone is off while charging.
Questions should be placed in the Q and A section, prepare for flaming.
Apps can't run while the phone is off.. so no.

[Q] Charging Current really low

I have a new battery on my phone. Its working perfect. I had to change because my old battery was swollen and died at 80 percent.
So recently I noticed that as my phone is charging and me doing small tasks on it the percentage of the battery goes down instead of up. Ive ran a battery tester and i get -155 mA going into my phone. So it discharges. I connected my charger to different plugs and I use the stock cable. I have a replacement cable as well. I know my charger is good as it works great on all of my other devices. What could be wrong?
It charges when I leave it. But As im a busy person I need to use it even when its charging. Thanks
Edit: When I dont use it it gets 500 - 700 mA and when used while charging (not used in heavy gaming just a internet or facebook/youtube app) -155 - -500 mA
1.turn off ur phone and charge
2. When its charged to 100% go to cwm recovery and delete the battery stats.
3. Calibrate battery using any app.

No! Deleting battery stats does nothing except clear usage data.

Hello. Just do a manual calibration.
Envoyé depuis mon N7000
The same thing is happening with me and I know it's annoying as hell..
Try to calibrate the battery. If it didn't work.. and since the battery is new as you say, maybe just maybe the charger needs to be changed, maybe it's not powerful enough for this specific phone and battery.
I found that all I needed is a better cable as the currentnone was broken. Now its all okay. Thanks

Whats your brightness at? If screen is eating up all your battery, most probably it is too high
I put it in the minimum. Im kinda paranoid that my phone has hardware issue but the phone is working fine. Im still finding solution why im having this prob. Still not losing hope. Lols.

if you've tried goldenkernel v2? then setting the hotplug and battery saver mode on, hopefully this can help you, especially if you use benzrom v6
Recalibrate your battery. Thats what helped me. my device can last 9 hours and still remain 70% battery with normal usage.
Heres how i callibrate.
1) download battery callibration in market.
2) charge the device till 100% (Dont plug it out)
3) power off the phone. I dont know if this will work on ur phone but i get 0% again. So charge it fully again.
4) once it shows 100% , unplug and plug it in again and wait till it reaches 100%. Do it for 4-5 times then reboot.
5) when your phone boots up, it wont be fully charged, so leave it charged till the battery full indicator shows up. Unplug and plug it in to charge again. Keep doing it for 10 times and the battery full indicator will pop up even quickier then the first time.
6) once u done it, open battery callibration and click callibrate.
7) after that, unplug your device and use it . The battery will last very long.
8) use the battery till 1-5%, u can completely drain it but i didnt do that cause some of my data will be removed after i completely drain my device.
9) charge it up to 100% again but dont use it while charging.
10) after that, enjoy ur battery life

Try using Better Battery Stats (you can get it free from xda) and use your phone normally for a day then see what is draining your battery
Anyone can help me pls?

Xperia Z - fast discharging at around 30% (4.1.2 software .253)

I've got a doubt about battery discharging in my phone. When it normally discharges from 100 to 35% everything is in normal, with similar drops every hour for ex. 2 days. But (even in standby) when battery is on app 35% I see very fast drop to 25-20% in couple mins. At the beggining I thought it is maybe broken cell in battery but I notice that around camera surface is warm, not hot. So it is probably matter of software. What drains my battery so fast and always at app 35-30%? Do you have similar issues? I made factory wipe few charging cycles ago but it did not make any changes.
Do you use any of the power management settings like stamina more or....
What apps do you have installed?
Sent from my C6603 using xda premium
Yes, I always use stamina, I switched it off just before taking picture. I use dropbox, GO backup, Network Singal Info, netmonitor, Gmail and one additional mailbox. I have Google backup - off, Hangouty - logged off, google now - off.
Well, I don't use stamina mode anymore. I too had these sudden drops when stamina mode was on.
Try switching off stamina for a couple of cycles.
If you find that there are no drops, then you have your culprit.
So you mean not use stamina at all or switch it off at around app. 50%?
Try without stamina mode.

Get root access, charge to 100%,delete battery stats(or use battery calibration app),drain battery to 0%,charge again to 100%, now see if still the same problem...

I've tried once without stamina but I got visible faster discharging so now after update to 4.2.2 I am testing with stamina ON.

Deleting battery stats does nothing. I post this every time I see someone recommend it, but I feel that the point needs driving home until people realise that it is a placebo at best.

my opinion
Sorry, it will not improve your battery, just if you have wrong indicated battery %,it maybe solve that. I solved a problem like that.my battery went from 50% down to 18 in a cuple of min.after deleting the stats and a few charges it was O.

No. The batterystats.bin file has no relation to the percentage displayed in the notification bar. It is used to calculate the usage statistics displayed in the battery usage section of settings. Nothing more. The file is deleted every time the battery is fully or nearly fully charged anyway.
The G+ post I linked to was written by an Android framework engineer, so I think they know their stuff

Ok,maybe i'm wrong,but somehow my problem was solved
I am sure that I hadn't wrong percentages but period of strange drain battery (when % suddenly drops) because I felt warm temperature around camera. So I suspect any strange thread/wakelock/trigger.

Problem with battery

Hi guys,i installed this ROM yesterday to my GT-S5830
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2212438
Now i have a problem with battery, this morning I charged it to maximum, and after 5 hours after getting off the charger (and about 45 minutes of effective usage (reading news and using facebook over mobile data)) battery level is 13%...
When I go into Battery stats it says that Screen uses 100% of battery ,and it's Time on is 1h 1m 6s
Brightness is set to 50%.
What could be the problem?
I'd guess that you can't go into deep sleep mode and that some kind off app is waking up your device..

That came to my mind too. How can i find which app is waking it?
I have installed WakeLock Detector, and it showed that Facebook made 120 wakelocks over night, though Facebook is not even listed in Battery stats.
I have set refresh interval of facebook to 1 hour, chat is off, how do I solve this problem, my phone is almost unusable with battery like this?
guys please help me, i deleted facebook completely, but it's not problem, when I get phone off the charger and use it for few minutes, battery drops to 70%!! It should not be battery issue,as when I used it with stock ROM there until few days ago it was OK. I've done Wipe battery stats in CWM after ROM install.
Try a full wipe & flash your rom again.
