Hello all,
I tried to install Cyanogenmod 6 as shown here Also made a nandroid backup when i flashed 2.2.1 (from 2.1). Then i tried to install cyanogenmod, but it problably went wrong there. After getting in a boot loop i rolled back the backup made from 2.2.1. When i started my phone i noticed that my battery status was unknown. Tried to install 2.1 again, looking on the interwebs didn't answer my question also. So who can help me?
I can see the battery level in Settings -> Phone Information -> Another page -> Battery level.
Did a wipe /data/battd
Copied thisin /data/system/batterystats.bin and thought that i saw a good battery for a second, so it looks the phone is generating a corrupt one.
It happened to me when I my batt got wet!
I had to buy a new one.
Your case seems different. But have no ideia how to solve it.
I am having the same problem with the LG P500.
Is the original battery?
Sometimes if its a "generic" one it does that thing.
You may try deleting the batterystats in the sdcard.
Or try the battery calibration.
I believe it was:
Connect the charger, reboot/shutdown the phone, when the screen turns off remove the battery, it shoud turn on without it and it will show "no sim" or similar, then plug the battery.

After I root my p990 from stock to CM7 i can't see battery state, I have only '?' on the battery icon in top bar, second problem is that phone turned off when was connected to USB port. Should I enable some settings to change it or what?
Sounds like it's got confused somehow, there's no setting to change. Might be worth plugging it in for a good while.
Always a possibility of a bad flash though, might be worth doing it again.
Did you have any idea why CwMod Recovery doesn't see my sd cart? And why on hell i can't turn on phone when I charge it?
E: Ok i rooted phone again now to nightly 97 and i still doesn't have working battery state...
Anyone who can help me ?
I rooted phone again which other diffrent roms and still have same problem...
That is officially weird.
I don't suppose you have some sort of aftermarket battery?
No, it's orginal battery. On stock everything was ok, problem appear after i rooted my phone. I will try back to stock, maybe it's hardware issue, for example battery driver was damaged? I bought 2x only two days ago... Argh...
I back to stock and flash to modco mod. Battery status is reading correctly. So issue is only on CyanogenMod. Anybody has a idea what to do ?
so yeah,,, i got a nexus one from a friend of mine (whos done alot of flashing and installing custom roms on this phone so i dont really know whats running) but it drains about 10-15% battery every hour or so.
ne suggestions on how i can figure out if its a bad rom or a bad battery??
thanks
Easiest way to know if it's the ROM is to flash a new one. I suggest cyanogen mod it is some what simple but works well and battery is just fine. There is plenty of documentation on the forum to show you how to flash but if you still can't get it just ask and I can walk you through it. You may also want to check settings -> about phone -> battery use to see what uses up the most of your battery.
you could try calibrating the battery
so ive ran some tests, basically fully charge one time without simcard and another time with, to see if the radio drains more battery. and both times its about the same.
i did order a few batteries off ebay, but probably will be like two weeks or so before they come in.
mmmm the md5 stuff kinda confuses me haha, dont know how that stuff works
You don't always need to check md5 you can if you want but most people don't just make a nandroid backup and that way if the file is corrupted you just flash it back and your good. But if you do want to check them just download ManD5 and check to see if the one on the file matches the one on the website.
Under >Settings >About Phone >Battery >Battery Use
What are the top 5 applications and what %?
Wifi should be set to never sleep. under >Settings >Wireless >Advanced >Wifi Sleep Policy
Find out which ROM and radio are being used. Cyanogenmod7.x or OxygenROM would be good for battery life.
You should also try charging the phone to 100% and then wiping battery stats.
Does your phone get warm when charging?
Having swapped ROMs back and forth, wiping everything, I get the same bad battery life (-10%/30 minutes). Wife's N1 runs fine, ours ran the same stock OTA versions until this. I needed to see if it was something related to the OS and tried some alternatives.
Replaced battery - no difference (wiped stats, etc)
Turned off data (wifi and non).
I can't tell when the radio was updated on mine - if it was related to an update that would correlate to the problem, but I have the latest radio that has been out a while.
Logcat looks just fine. It's not data related, nothing seems to be going on when charging...
My hands are cold, using the N1 as a hand warmer right now (it's plugged in)...
There's a bug with CM's kernels causing a LOT of battery drain when you set the wifi sleep policy to anything but "never sleep", check that and change it in case it's not. I know it sounds counter-intituive, but it really works.
I set mine to "never sleep" and easily last a full day on a charge. I also calibrated my battery using the battery calibration app, and using a plain black background helps somewhat if your N1 is AMOLED
hi , i m running cm7 and i previously had a sgs and sgs 2. on sgs i had 2 batteries and switching beetweens the two i remember that battery life indicator was not so accurate but usable. now i have 3 batteries on my lg dual but when i remove the discharged one to change it with nother one the phone shows me always 0% .... almost unusable. anyone has this prpblem? is there any way to solve it?
You must go to to recovery mode and in advance menu wipe the battery stats.
When removing the battery, wait a while before inserting the new one. That will fix it. If you insert the new one immediately the phone won't realize you've changed battery at all and show the old battery-percentage.
Search didnt help, and cant post on development section yet.
So my problem is with pretty much all ICS roms ive tried, but currently i am running CM9 RC3.
So my phone randomly crashes, when im listening to music with apollo and dspmanager running. sometimes it just crashes in my pocket, sometimes it crashes when some one calls me while im scrolling songs etc, sometimes it just crashes without doing anything, but the weird thing is that everytime my phone crashes, theres a 50/50 chance to boot it, sometimes it boots but battery can jump from 80% to like 14% etc..
sometimes it can jump from 80% to 0% (?) and when that happens my PIN code doesnt register and the phone will just crash in seconds.
But usually i have to take battery out, wait a sec then it usually boots but battery always drops to 4-20% and starts charging on its own..
Before installing i have done full wipe, fixed permissions, calibrated battery, used CWM 5.5.0.4, tried ODIN (no luck with that either).
I flashed Broodrom (GB) And it crashed also with same problem..
Ive tried BioHazard rom, same problem, but when i flash stock ROM, no crashes..
Pls halp
E: Forgot to add, sometimes when it crashes its stuck on bootloop until i take battery out, after that it MIGHT boot, not always. But it never crashes when on charger..
So im guessing im alone with this problem
What do you mean crash??
Does it restart or apps just ForceClose??
If it restarts, does It begin from the beginning of the boot cycle or just the boot animation??
I have the exact same problem with my i9001 since 3 weeks now. It started when flashing broodrom and now happens with any ROM (I have tried a few, cleared cache, format system, etc....). Even the battery behaviour is exactly the same as you describe..
To answer the question: the phone restarts from the Samsung boot screen. IF anybody has any clue, it would be great to hear... It's a very annoying issue I can tell you!
Thanks in advance!

Thats something you should take note: your battery is most likely dying.
I had the same exact issue: Started with the stock ROM, flashed Paranoid but it continued. Took it to service (with a stock ROM), came back re flashed and wiped. The same thing continued, no matter what ROM I was using so i figured it had to be a hardware problem.
I noticed that my battery had swollen a bit, like 1-2 mm so that I could see it easily: the battery should be flat, mine was not. Borrowed a battery from a friends I9001 and got no crashes after 15 minutes of heavy use: problem solved!
Bought a new battery and haven't had a problem since.
The battery has only 6 months warranty and my phone was a year old, I kept the old one as really crappy spare battery.
Sorry guise, forgot to post here!
I bough a Polarcell 1800mAh battery and no more crashes, my old battery had swelled, if yours is also its pretty easy to notice, i just put my credit card on top of the battery to check it.
So yeah, you have this problem, new battery, thats all.

Hi. Thanks for the quick replies!
I have actually just tried to exchange batteries with a friend having the same phone --> his phone crashed, mine did not anymore. I then saw by carefully looking at the battery that it had indeed maybe a 1mm swell in the middle. Just ordered a replacement one. I am confident this will fix the issue.
Again, thanks for your reaction.. Nice to see the responsiveness of this forum!
Cheers,

If its the exact same problem, you need to change battery and test or try connect to charger and test
i have same problem mostly with app using gps.
today i have installed the new app game from google called ingress and it makes my phone always.
i found a new battery and i will try if something will change.
lately my crashes happens very more often i am using a gigabread+ rom and cwm recovery, but was quite the same when i was in stock .
(sorry for my english)
I got same problem with my phone, first phone gets frozen/stuck and then reboot itself from bootscreen. This was totaly random issue. After trying several roms, and kernels, underclocking cpu, I found that problem is in external sdcard. I think this is battery related issue. After unmounting and removing external sdcard, reboots gone, and battery lasts at least 20% longer. Im not using my phone like external storage, so I dont miss external sdcard, I got quite enough space on internal.
Problem fixed!

I found out that my SIM card was corrupted and caused my phone to be unable to boot. And the random shutdowns with sudden battery drains were fixed by changing the battery
Hi,
I own a Nook HD Hummingbird tablet that on a custom rom experiences battery issues. The original battery was replaced after a issue caused unexpected shutdowns at 50% battery even on a stock rom. Now the new battery appears to give a good 4-5 hours on stock with no apparent issues. However when running a Cyanogenmod 13 build by @amaces the device or OS doesn't seem to know when to shutdown. I'll get the device to 1% then the device will last another 30 minutes or more with the low battery warning. Sometimes I'll see the battery percentage magically increase to 10% or more with reflecting results in the battery graph you can view in settings although I did not plug the Nook into any power source. When the device is truly out of battery it will just go off, no "power off" popup or any indication of a clean shutdown. This worries me that I might loose data unexpectedly if I go long enough without being able to plug the Nook into a power source. Does anyone have ideas why this maybe happening and any possible workarounds or solutions?
If you carefully check out the CM13 thread where you got your ROM from, you will find a couple of posts describing a solution for most battery woes. It essentially goes something like this: The battery status area in the hidden partition or folder has become corrupted. Wipe everything. Install the stock rom and stock recovery. Boot into the stock recovery and reset to factory settings. Boot the system and let it settle - this stock rom has some extra magic in it that apparently does something in the system and hidden partitions to re-create the hidden battery status sections that can become corrupted by repeated ROM installing. the stock OS may or may not be required to populate it first time around. I played safe and let it reboot fully as this only cost 15mins with no effort from me.
After it has settles from the re-boot you can run-down the battery to test the behaviour if you wish. Otherwise you can now reflash TWRP and re-install CM13.
I have paraphrased a little, but this is the gist of it. I suggest you search the CM13 thread for "battery woes" or something similar to get the exact details.
It worked form my HD.
Does CM13 on your Nook HD shutdown properly on low battery? I wonder because after all the resetting I performed on my Nook HD I still see the issue of CM13 not shutting down properly when battery is low 1%
You beat me to this one. That's pretty accurate paraphrasing.
