Does anyone know how to turn this off? It's really annoying that the phone vibrated every few seconds when the battery level drops below 20%. Thanks
Mine has only ever vibrated one time on the initial 15% warning.

Hey all,
I took my N1 out of the charger 5 hours ago. I checked 1 website, that took like 1min. I've been voicecalling for 25min and 4s (had the speaker active for 4 minutes). That's all I've done with my phone. All the other time it's been idle with it set to use 2G only to save battery (I'm in an area where 3g is weak, so it keeps switching, and I heard that kills battery quite a bit, so that's why I set it to 2G only, correct me if I'm wrong on that).
Now my phone only has 15% of battery left.
I can't imagine this is normal, so my question is: Is this normal? If not, what % of battery should I have left normally after 25min of voicecalling?
Thanks in advance.

Do you have any background apps that are refreshing a lot? What's the screen setting while on a call (how long for the screen to turn off), does the screen stay ton while on speakerphone? Are you sure you were at 100% when removed from the charger? GPS? bluetooth?
No idea how the battery couod drain that quickly without at least a couple of these things being some sort of a role.
Sorry, forgot to mention those things.
- No things running in background. Just mail checking once every hour.
- GPS is on, but normally that doesnt drain my battery at all, can leave my phone idle for 12 hours and still have 80% or more left.
- Screen is on auto adjust, and it wasnt bright at all while I was using it, when i normally use my screen I can use it for at least 2+ hours before battery is at 30% or less.
- Screen was on during the speaker, but that was only 4min. The screen does go off when I'm calling without the speaker on.
- Yes it was at 100%, I'm 100% sure.
- Bluetooth is off, wifi was also off.
I've had problems with the phone draining during phonecalls with the same length of talk time.
That, or playing movies/youtube, but i can understand why that would happen.
What ROM are you using?
After i switched to the undervolted CyanMod Rom, it helped with battery length.
I'm running the stock ROM with update 1.
As an extra note, I tried to start the camera, but it didn't want to start. Not even after multiple tries.
I don't know if that has anything to do with this problem.
I've been posting here as well, there's some extra information as well: google.com/support/forum/p/android/thread?tid=3b2399fce53a8f2a&hl=en
run your battery completely dead... like when your phone turns off open the boot loader and just kill the thing till you cant even get the boot loader to come up...
take the battery out wait a few seconds to make sure all the extra juice has discharged in the phone and put it back in...
start charging again and dont turn it on until it is fully charged (green light should show up and then wait smore after that)
I let my phone run down to 16% and I was planning to let it go to 10% before plugging it in to charge.
At 16% I was on wifi and browsing websites when it just turned the screen off, made a warning sound and flashed the red battery light. After about 3 sec it started vibrating non stop which made me think of the 'discharge' feature on some phones, (which quickly uses/discharges the battery..), I didn't want it to go to 0% so I pressed (tapped not held) the power button which seemed to turn it off. I turned it back on, plugged in, and it booted up showing 0% batt.
My question is, has anyone come across this before? Should the batt % be this incorrect? and why did it vibrate..
My phone has been frequently below 15% without problems (yes, it's not very good for the battery, I know). It should vibrate once when it hits 15% and display the charge message, but that's it.
Happened once though that my battery discharged from 50% to 0 in literally 1 second, don't know what happened then, but it hasn't happened again.
Sounds like either your battery shorted or the calibration on battery % was way off on your phone. Try charging it to full and see what happens the next time you reach 16%, it might've fixed itself.
The other day my Nexus turned off at 11% :/
wipe battery stats after a full charge.. guess that will solve the problem
this isnt just a froyo issue, i am still on 2.1 and my battery dies at 8% EVERY time. it turns off, and when i turn it back on, it shows 0% but it died at 8%. its been this way the entire time i've owned the nexus. i'm not rooted so i never wiped the battery log files yet....but i will soon enough.
Ya my phone dies at 20% everytime. I just ordered a new one though

do that.
On 2.1 my N1, first my N1 had its multitouch laggy starting at 15%, then after some day of uses it shuts down at 1%.
Your battery just need to be calibrate.
So I've never had a problem with my battery at all. I easily got 6h of screen on time and everything was great.
Recently my Nook started to randomly shut off at around 20-30 %. It "popped" and it was off. Didn't reboot either. Like the battery was dead.
I would have to charge it again to be able to power it on.
Also the stats seemed to be off. The lockscreen sometimes told me it's fully charged and whenever I unplugged my Nook it wasn't fully charged. The battery LED also sometimes flashes green/red during charging.
I only get around 2-3 h of SOT at the moment.
I tried reflashing a couple of times (with full wipes) but the problem occured again.
So my question is: Are my battery stats messed up? Does it just stop charging at a certain point because it thinks it's fully charged but it isn't in reality?
Any ideas (on how to fix this)?

It's almost sure that you battery is degrading very fast. But its my advice to re-calibrate your battery. Set your screen brightness to max setting and leave it on until it shuts down. Now don't power it on. Leave it charging for around 2 and half hour.
Now install geekbench benchmark app and test your battery.
If you heard a pop noise, the battery probably delaminated/micro-exploded. (Li-Ion's tend to swell and fail from the heat of (over)charging.)
There's a company, newpower99.com, who has a YouTube video on replacing the battery in the HD+. The battery sold for $25 US last year, but now that our batteries are beginning to degrade, they're out of stock.
I found another site selling replacement batteries for $80. (portatronics.com)
I've noticed that my screen-on time has dropped from 6 hous to 5.5. Maybe the Nokia N1 will be available and rooted by the time I hit 3 hours.

I'm having the same issues, and reading this reminded me of trying BatteryCalibration to reset the battery since my nook HD+ stock OS is rooted.
I had this problem several times before I installed CM. Usually, it happened when there was an update available, and when the Nook started to update, it factory reset itself.

Hello all,
Since the latest firmware update, my G Watch R no longer turns it's screen off when i leave it on my bedside table overnight (not charging) where as it does turn off if it's on the charging cradle.
I've always had the screen set to always on and it generally lasts 2 days easily before the update but now that the screen stays on ambient mode, the battery would drop from 60-70% to around 35-40% after several hours while I'm asleep. I've done a factory reset last week and it didn't help.
On a slightly related note, the battery seems to drain much faster when it reaches below 20% and most of the time it just dies at around 5-10% left even with battery saver on.
Anyone else encountered this?
go into the wear app on your phone and disable always on screen. u also need to do this from the watch settings as well.
But that would turn off ambient mode which I want on and had done so since I bought the watch in November.
I have the same issue as well. Would love to have it back.
Anyone else experience this? I was next to my gf and seen her tablet start flickering and she handed it to me and it was at 5% and it shutdown and wouldn't power back up until I plugged it in. Is this normal?
Battery stats are never always 100 percent accurate.. rule of thumb do not deplete the battery completely. Once below 10% it's time to recharge.
Yep, same for me. I try to keep it between 25-85% allt the time. Been doing it for about three months and now it barely flickers at all.
