Battery discharging at 82% after complete charge (with charger unplugged) - Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello,
For the last week I've noticed that in the morning when i unplug my phone from the charger the battery percentage shows 82%, although the phone was connected over the night with the charger.
The idea is after the battery is fully charged it begins to drain, but never when i unplugged the phone in the morning (after a night spent plugged with the charger) the battery was drained (or so drained).
If i don't unplug the charger when the battery is fully charged, the battery starts to drain.
I've used the home charger, car charger and the usb.
Did this issue happened to someone else?
This issue happened because I've deleted the battery stats?
Sorry for my english.

This issue happened because I've deleted the battery stats
Unlikely back up data and factory reset as first step .
jje

1. Do a factory reset
2. Turn off phone
3. Charge till full
4. Delete Battery stats
5. Drain till autoshutdown
6. Charge till full again.

yes, i'm on gingerbread 2.3.3 (darky 10 5.3), and i don't know why is happening this because i've installed the new rom with the battery full, or maybe i thought that the battery is full.
i'll try to recalibrate the battery and see if it works.

I have the same problem. I am on gingerbread as well

Just plug in again till it says charged and do it again after, mine is the same jvb.

Did you try to calibrate the battery? Mine discharged from 40% to 0% in a peir of hour till I used this: https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration

[Q] USB charging bug in 2.3.3

Hi
Apologies if this has been posted before. I recently flashed my phone with gingerbread (JVK) and since then, the USB charging have been more then a little bit screwy.
Usually i have my phone plugged into my PC while i am work. At some point during the day i will get the message telling me that its finished charging. If i unplug it at this point the battery will instantly drop to between 70 and 80 percent, sometimes it goes as low as 50%!!!! If i plug the phone back in it will continue charging for a while and then i will get another message telling me that the battery is at 100%. If i unplug it then it still drops, but to a higher percentage. I am able to get the battery to 99% by plugging it in and unplugging it a number of times.
The odd thing is that if i charge it from mains, it goes to 100% and stays there the first time.
Any ideas?
somehow same issue for me for what ever gingerbread (jv1/jvk/jvb) i have use.
but mine is different, if i got it unplug immediately after it saids "full charged" it will shows 100%.
BUT if i leave the charger on after it saids "full charged" for another few more hrs say 6 hrs, after unplugging.. it will immediately drop to 90% or even less some time.
well for js5/7/8 don't have such issue, that means after i leave the charger plug for overnight even its already full charged, after unplugging it still shows 99-100% !
wondering if any jv1/k/b user encounting this same issue?

If you are rooted, then delete battery stats, shutdown your phone, and leave it on the charger till it is 100% full. Then leave in on the charger again, start your phone, and delete battery stats again. Reboot your phone, and you should be ok.
For the second part, in which your phone after fully charged and left on charger lost some percentage after unplugging, it seems that Gingerbread stops charging once battery is full, and do not continue, even if charger is plugged in, once it'll lost some power. Some older phones does this (S45 for example).
Out of curiosity, what kernel are you using?

ok, as for battery stats i did the wipe, but i did not shutdown and do a full charge
as for kernel i did not really try on stock kernel though, i started using jv's series with CF's kernel or supercurio's hacked kernel.
maybe you are right that gingerbread stop charging after the battery is fully charged, but to my understanding i thought that is supposed it run on a/c once its fully charged? leaving the battery disconnect until you unplug it and it will starts to use the battery.
for froyo wise i presume it runs on a/c while leaving the battery disconnected, after overnight of full charged the phone is cool and don't feel like the battery is still "charging" after it reaches 100%
I had this problem too when i was with xxjvk. batterystats.bin was always automatically deleted by system once charger was connect/disconnect (couldnt remember...).
if the charger was unplugged right after fully charged notification, the phone worked perfectly fine and battery life was much better than with xsjw8..

Ok seems like jvb doesn't solve the issue... I'm on goatrips's jvb at the moment. I got the make sure that I unplug immediately after it said full charged otherwise the percentage would drop like 10-20% if I leave it connected overnight.
Wondering how come there is so many jvk/jvb tester/users around but seems no one mention about it.

Thanks for your reply but i have already tried this.
It also does not explain why it is fine charging from mains but not USB.
Notice that. Not sure whether its a bug. When it finishes charging, the sgs operate naturally and doesn't preserve the battery like it use to in the previous fw. So it drops immediately as the phone is disconnected. If the screen is left on during charging, it is a problem...

Anything ever come out of this? I'm using Serendipity VII for Cappy based of jvb. I'm seeing this regardless of the type charger I use. Once it hits 100%, the battery continues to show 100% until I remove the charger. Then it shows what I assume is the amount of battery left after powering the phone from the point it reached a full charge to the present. If I remove it immediately after full charge is reached, it reflects that. If I leave it on the charger for hours, it immediately drops reflecting the time spent since full charge.

[Q] battery going from 100% to 78% after unplugged???

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

[Q] Help. Battery will not charge more than 70%

I am not new to the phone and I have done battery calibrations many times. I used MIUI for a long time, then went to Pinnacle 1.1. After a few weeks one night after fully charging, I unplugged the charger and it dropped to 70% instantly. I could then plug the charger back in and it will not move from 70% for a while, then it will register 'fully charged'. Removal of the charger again will make it drop to 70%. Turning off the device and charging will show the green battery about 2/3 full, but not registering full. I then went back to MIUI thinking it was a rom flaw, but this problem has persisted. I am right now charging on stock JF6 with the same results. If this is indicative of a defective battery, has anyone seen this before? The battery is 14 months old.
TL;DR - It seems that the battery wont charge past 70% regardless of ROM/Kernel.
I had a similar problem but it was because I wasn't using the charger that comes with the phone switched chargers problem was solved.

I drained the battery last night, and then charged while off fully. The green battery icon went to 100%, and as soon as I turned it on it said 73%.
You might want to check into getting a new battery I got a extended battery for 10$ you can probably find the original sized battery for about the same price if you look around.

Google "bump charging". I had a similar issue when I was on serendipity vii, it would charge to full, but as soon as I unplugged it would drop to 80%. I bump charged, then calibrated. All was well after that.

Tried that. It hangs at about the 2/3 full level on the large green battery icon when the phone is charging off so I really can't do a proper bump charge.
I think I am going to resign to it being a battery past its prime...

I find that hard to believe, but it can't hurt to try!
Sounds like you need a battery calibration..
1. discharge completely
2. plug into a USB port on the computer for a slow charge up to 100% (overnight while "off")
3. unplug the device and turn it on
4. if you have a ROM with CWM installed, clear the battery stats at this time.
5. plug it into usb until it's charged to 100% (while on)
6. unplug the device and turn it off
7. plug in into usb again until its charged to 100%(while "off")
8. turn it on and use it as normal
This will allow the device to relearn it's battery charging characteristics. This is the battery calibration.

In stages 2 or 5 it never reaches 100%.

You are not leaving it long enough. It will reach 100% once it charges what it believes is 30% more. It must be off and you must clear the Batt stats.
Once it stops charging it marks that as fully charged. Your battery needs calibration.

You are right.
I did a small test with a coworkers battery today.
His battery in his phone - 88%
His battery in my phone - 58%
Leaves a delta of 30% which is exactly why mine stops charging at 70%.
It has gotten to 100% while off charging in the green. I then booted to CWM recovery and wiped battery stats, but it turns on at 70% again. It is almost like it isn't deleting the file.

It's true, go to your nearest AT&T store and tell them about your issue and they'll take your information (name, address etc...) and ship you a brand new OEM (Samsung) battery no questions asked. No idea why they don't just hand you one on the spot, but it only takes a few days to get to you anyways.

did you finish the procedure I mentioned? There is a calibration procedure. It involves turning it on and off several times and plugging it in an unplugging it several times.

I followed the calibration instructions perfectly. I have done it quite often actually. Didn't work. It acts as if CWM isn't actually deleting the file.
Deleted batterystats.bin via a terminal emulator and still no luck.

Battery problem HD7

Hello everyone ....
I have a problem with charging the battery on my HD7...
When I leave the phone on the charger overnight ... the morning shines green light 100% battery, but after a few minutes show a lower value ... eg 90%. During the day, the battery drain is normal.
When the phone on the charger during the day and when the battery is charged (quickly turns off the charger) ... there is no effect of the rapid discharge of the battery. The battery is drained properly.
I concluded that the charger charges the battery to 100%, and then turns off. The phone starts to use battery the rest of the night. The phone is still on the charger. I think that is not normal behavior of the phone. My Trophy has not worked in this way
I use Nextgen 2.0 rom. and battery status v4.1.0
I wonder, the battery is bad or the software or something else.
thank you

I had similar problem, changed to new one.
when u leave the phone on the charger overnight, what happens is that th ephone fully charges. to 100 % and then the charger shuts off. but the phone runs on fthe battery especially if u have the radios or wifi on but the indicator thinks that its still on the charger ...but the wifi radios ect is using the power
when u unplug the phone, the battery drains down to actual level aka rapid draining
I think battery or charger should be the problem but probably battery. pretty cheap on ebay

Shutdown your phone and then put off your battery, and see if this is inflated, maybe your battery is dead :S
and..I'd advice you don't leave overnight charging your device, this may break your device's battery
Thanks a lot Viper The Ripper for all the help.
Problem solved, the battery can not be saved and had to buy a new one. Subject to closing
However, the problem is not solved, I put new battery recharge up to 100%, acted a little state has declined to 87% wanted to recharge again with curiosity and an hour remained at this level that the problem may be in the USB cable, charger, I tried to recharge the phone connection laptop unfortunately nothing. Any advice ?
