I just got my captivate and it is clean except from root and sideload and have lead to my first issue. I put my phone on charge over night and went to bed. Then after I woke up I unlocked the phone and saw the phone fully charged sign. I then checked my battery percentage which indicated 100, but when I pulled the charger out it shows 59! I rebooted but it still shows it and I pretty much am sure that it is really 59 and not a miss reading. But why did not fully charge? IS there a setting that I did wrong because my hunch is that when the fully charged sign comes, it stops charging (the zigzag on battery goes of) and the battery drains and the phone never charges again. This is really retarded implementation! Does anyone else have the same problem or any solutions?

EDIT: PLEASE DON'T POST ANY RECALIBRATION THREADS IT IS NOT AN ISSUE ABOUT CALIBRATION (HENCE I HAVE DIFFERENT ISSUE ON THREAD TITLE) THE ISSUE IS FURTHER EXPLAINED THREE POSTS BELOW.
Have you tried any of these methods?
HOW TO: Reconfigure Battery Stats
When you flash a new ROM it may be necessary to reconfigure your battery stats.
Signs you may need to re configure:
1. . Using more then 10% battery in an hour or less
2. . While plugged into the charger you lock screen shows a different percentage charge then the battery icon
3. . After a full charge your battery icon only shows 99% and quickly drains.
4. . Any general weird battery activity
Step by step battery reconfigure process: (This is the process that has worked for me time and time again with ROM after ROM)
1. . Flash the Rom on a full battery. (skip to step 6)
2. . If you flashed on less then full plug into AC charger asap and charge to full while the phone is powered on
3. . Once the phone blinks full 2.1-battfull popup shows 2.2-battery sign shows on left of notification bar power off
4. . Charge till full while powered off. the phone will vibrate and the green battery will show 100% in white text
5. . Unplug phone and power on.
6. . Using Root Explorer or a comparable program navigate to (Mount R/W first): data>system> and delete file batterystats.bin
7. . Reboot
8. . While the phone reboots it will rebuild that file and the software and phone should now match.
9. . If any of the symptoms persist start at step 2 and repeat.
10. . As with any rechargeable battery fully discharging the battery once in a while isn't a bad idea
HOW TO: BATTERY Calibrate
1. Connect the phone to the charger with the phone powered on, and allow the phone to charge until it shows 100%
2. Disconnect the phone from the charger, and power it off.
3. Reconnect the phone to the charger with the phone powered off, and allow the phone to charge until the battery indicator shows 100% (you can use vol-up/vol-down to make the indicator come back up when the screen goes to sleep).
4. Disconnect the phone from the charger and power it on.
5. Once the phone is powered completely on, power it off again and reconnect it to the charger until the battery indicator shows 100%.
6. Disconnect the phone, power it on, and use it.
You should only need to use this sequence one time.

Ill try that but the thing is that I didny flash any roms so i don't know if it is a calibraion problem. Also can anyone confirm that the battery stops charging once full while connected into charger?

PROBLEM
EDIT: I did some more searching and found that some people said they have this problem and some people don't?!? Pretty much what happens is that when it hits 100% it stops charging so then it drains over night without charging again. This is STUPID! But just to make sure this is a stock problem I want to test if this happens to people here. Can you please post if this happens to you or not? (also post if your on a custom rom)

It's never happenned to me stock or custom ROMS, it really looks like you need to callibrate your battery. I've experienced a similar issue as you and a simple callibration fixed it. I've never had it stop charging when plugged in after a full charge.

Really??? Ok I will try recalibrating, but I don't know how my calibration got messed up since I really didn't flash any roms.
I think ( dont know for sure) this happens when you first get the phone and do not charge it fully before first power on. I think android stores this half chrged battery as full and starts the cycle from their so it never actually charges.
i would use rom manager delete battery status pull battery for 5 min then put battery in and charge from the wall till it sais full and repeat this over once

Ya thats actually a likely explanation. Recalibrating now. Almost to the point to remove battery stats.
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?

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.

Hi, I have a problem namely battery will not charge at on the phone. In the phone, the battery is kept constant at the same level, in the case where charging leave for the night reaches 100%, but Without the charger immediately decreases to the level before charging. I tried to charge the phone battery different levels, but nothing. It charges only when the phone is off.
Currently I have the room

You need to calibrate your battery after install a rom, reboot into recovery>>>advanced options>>> wipe battery stats, try it a report then

Sorry it was unnecessary on my part. No I did not check, and how to do it?
After your help, I cleaned the file again and to my surprise the battery was loading and recharge to 86% and further something not want to charge. Then I left my phone charger at night and Without the charger has dropped to 54%. Battery Calibration gives 54%.

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 ?
The same as title said, a week ago,.my device started auto shutdown while I Disconnect charge. Then i tried to turn on it,but it always display Google 1s,and auto shutdown again.(my battery power is full, and could be charged)
however, just i connect with Power Supply, it can turn on ...
is there any method can help me???

Check the voltage of the battery. I use an app called Kernel Adiutor. My N6 is showing 4191 mV no charger connected. With charger connected the value is 4450 mV.

Before that you could check if the battery saver is disabled. Turn off the battery saver in the Settings - Battery menu.

Yep.
Typically if it shuts off the second you yank from a charger regardless of laptop or phone or anything its a battery issue. The cells arent holding a charge. Your able to boot into android and stay on while on charger so everything is fine evidently software wise... but that battery isnt holding the charge so it flops out.
You can either order the part online and do the change yourself which isnt too bad on Nexus or if your still under warranty then send it in.
