I'm not sure if this is a sign that I need to recalibrate the battery or not. Everytime I unplug my phone when it says that the battery is fully charged, it automatically drops to 99% or 98%. Any ideas on what I should do?

Anyone have the problem that the battery status is incorrect? Sometimes within the hour of fully charing my device the screen starts to flicker and then device turns it self off.
When I restart and charge it the battery bar shows almost emtpy and goes to 100% after ten minutes in only one step.
I am using Sakajati's latest ROM. Only modification I did was replace IE with the previous version.
1. Flash a stock ROM see if still problem.
2. Try a different battery see if still problem.
Both will test hardware or ROM related.
Your battery is most likely dead.
yeah I agree your battery is most likely dead. I had the same problem with my first tilt. It died out cos I accidentally overcharged it a few times.

You can't, the phone would just stop charging it.

i know the phone is smarter than that, but i figured he used an off brand charger or something like that, just wanted to make sure.
If you use too hot of a charger it can hurt the battery a little bit....
I know that a common cause of this problem beyond the battery is that the phone's calibration to read the battery level gets thrown off. To reset the calibration, turn the phone off, do a battery pull, wait a good 30 seconds, put it back in, then without turning the device back on, put it on the charger and let it chill for a couple hours. When all is said and done, you should have a fully charged battery and a recalibrated Kaiser.
I would not be to quick to blame the battery here but yes it could be that What SPL do you have? If the device acts dodgy whit screen freeze it could be that. I would try some other whit recomended rom and give it a spin before changing battery (ofc. short version is to borrow a fresh one to eliminate).
I have a problem someone might be able to shed some light on.
I am on call so i need to leave my phone on over night, i plug it in as i go to bed so over noight it charges. In the morning it is at 100% until i unplug it, it will go down to 78 - 85% of battery
Does anyone know why this happens??????
Thanks.
Did you calibrate your battery after flashing Criskelo's ROM? Also, the phone stops charging after it reaches 100%, so its if you think that keeping it connected to the charger all night long it will be charging all the time you're wrong. The phone stops charging to prevent the battery from overheating - charging resumes after some time though

I believe I did a battery Calibration, I used "Battery Calibration" to do this but this might not be the best thing to do a CAL.
I leave it plugged in cos i'm asleep when it gets to 100% otherwise i would unplug it, when i here it get to 100% i unplug it cos i only lose about 2% battery over night.
It should at least hold the charge at around 99 -98%.
I think Battery Calibration does the job - or you can go in recovery and wipe the battery stats there. Anyway next time that happens you should go to Settings>applications>battery use and you should check which of the processes is draining your battery the most

Nothing is draining the battery, I just want to know why after being on the charger "reading 100%" battery it drops to approx 78% after i unplug the Charger.
Even if i have everything turned on and running it should stay at 97% or above once i unplug the charger.
LOL that's just the battery acting if you don't have anything draining it. Also, just for information - you apparently haven't had everything turned on and running on the phone - I can tell you that the charger is not fast enough and cannot counter the entire drain of the battery, so you end up losing battery even though you're charging the phone and the worse part is that soon the battery overheats and stops charging. LOL
For crying out loud, use your brains and do a search for battery problems, there are so many damn bits of info on battery calibration it's unreal, first rule of forum.. "search before you ask"! Nappy change anyone?!

I did a search but found nothing regarding this issue.
Sorry to bring up an old thread, but i have just recently gotten the same problem.
It started after i installed the 2000 Mah samsung battery. I have since calibrated the battery but the problem apperently still persist.
I have several chargers, and i'm beginning to suspect that the one in the bedroom doesn't work properly anymore. I used the charger in the living room to charge to 100% calibrate and it stayed at 100% when unplugged.
Any ideas or suggestions or is it simply still af matter of a bad calibration?
When unplugging, anything in the range of 95% to 100% should be ok.
As for calibrating, i usually drain my whole battery to 0, then recharge to get back 100%
That is exactly what I did as well.
Another way you could fix this is by turning off auto-sync while you charge.
I had this exact problem, but it is caused by your phone completely charging, when it gets to 100% it stops taking battery from the plug, so its using your phones battery. Auto sync is always been used and uses a lot of battery.
Try this and let me know
Chargemon is some binary to allow "offline charging" while the phone isn't completely started up, right?
Offline charging means if the phone is completely turned off and I connect a charger, the phone battery will be charged, right?
Remove chargemon compatibility

What does that mean for me?
In worst case, if I ever drain my battery to 0 percent and I can not start up my phone again - I will not be able to charge that battery ever again? (until I go back to stock kernel)

Hey
I got the same problem now, do you remember how you fixed it?
Thanks in advance
when my phone is fully charged(I also got the notification)the battery's icon on the status-bar said 100%. But when I unplug the phone, the battery icon suddenly became 97%. I don't know what the hell happened to my battery. My phone couldn't charge over 97%. Does anyone can solve it? Please help me out!

This is a 'feature' of the i9000, it will rarely charge to an honest 100%.
There is also considerable debate around this issue or 'feature'.
I suggest you read threads like this one for more info; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=871051
fear not, there is nothing wrong with your phone. If you like *THIS WILL DECREASE THE LIFE OF YOUR BATTERY* you can 'bump charge' it. This involves charging to 100%, turning it off, letting it charge to 100%, unplugging charger, replugging charger in, letting charger charge to 100%, repeat as much as you like. This process forces more juice in, but it can damage the longevity of your battery and possibly cause an overcharge if you do it too much.
You will find this mentioned in a lot of places, so please learn use the search tool. Apologies if you're getting started, but it is important to learn!

What rom are you using ?
Probably the power IC is damaged. If that's the case I fear that you will have to replace the entire board.
Sometimes happens after you flash a ROM.
Try using a battery calibration tool and see if that works......
I proposed this to a partner, you have nothing to lose, I tell you what I've done with something similar: download the whole battery, when you turn it on, nothing comes out, maybe it just vibrates, you remove the battery, the sim and the sd, so you put the power button for a few seconds and leave it like this for 4 or 5 minutes, after that time you set everything up and put it to charge, use it later until the battery is fully discharged, do not load it before only when it turns itself off, I hope this helps you
Same problem
