hello. i have motorola milestone. I flashed the sbf file. Everything fine. Then i boot phone to recovery, ... . After flashing i turn the phone on and battery indicator shows "?" I cant charge battery, and phone will shut down after while. Then i need to flash sbf file again, and everithing is fine. I tested CM7, CM6, FroyoMod and HO!NO! rom. Can someone help me?
//edit
just disable 1% battery mod
i've had this problem, although it was not fixed by reflashing the sbf. what is the 1% battery mod you're referring to?
He talks about the battery indicator stepping.
In exchange for a battery to try?

Hi All,
Please help. While I'm charging my SGS with the phone turned off, there isn't any batter charging animation (before I rooted my phone, the animation was there). The battery picture is stuck at 0% all the time. However, when I turn on the phone, the charging indication is there along with how many percent have been completed (definitely, more than 0% as indicated when the phone turned off).
How to fix this problem? Thanks in advance for the help.
If it'll help, I'm running stock FW DXJF4 rooted.
Cheers
I noticed yesterday that I'm seeing something similar.
I've also noticed that if I try going into Clockwork Recovery via ROM Manager it no longer starts up directly, but instead eventually goes into the standard Recovery Manager and I have to start Clockwork Recovery manually via the update.zip file.
I'm using the JG5 based MCR r3 ROM so I may try reinstalling later.
Mimocan's market fix causes this
Thanks for that info, I'll have a play when I reinstall the OS later.

So, I assume that this is normal? And yes, I'm using Mimocan's market fix (as well as lag/stall fix). Thanks for the help.
Its because you move the system files onto the ext4 partition, a partition that only gets mounted at boot.
The market fix is optional, personally i don't use it
get to keep my battery meter that way
Hello everyone, long time reader, first time poster (with a real query).
Actually last Friday my cappy started to show 100% of the battery after being for some time in use, so I reboot it trying to solve the issue.
After the boot, the cell shows the Initially Battery screen for 2 seconds with the battery without charge then turns off. Tried several times and also using a second battery with full charge and same problem persisted.
10 minutes later without having a battery inside the phone, it boots but when I rebooted the problem arises again.
This weekend I installed Illuminance 3.01, after that I have installed CM9 (very nice ROM) and the battery problem still is happening. I am able to use the phone but I don´t know for how much more.
Any suggestion?
Thanks,
Martin
have you tried to wipe battery stats in recovery ?

Yesterday night I did a wipe battery stats and the problem still is there.
It starts with the loop and the only way I can start the phone is plugging it then it shows the actual charge of the battery and after that I can boot.
It must be something "deeper" than the rom...
Anybody?
Thanks
Somebody can help?
I am having the exact same issue, stock froyo 2.2 rooted 5 months ago. I'm trying everything before updating to 2.3, I'll let you know if I find a fix, please do the same.
Searching google is not working this time, it's been 3 days...
Things I've tried:
1- From recovery, boot phone. Problem persists after phone is turned off.
2- Boot from revovery, then reset to factory settings, after rese, same issue.
3- Wipe cache from recovery. Problem still there.
4- Wipe cache+user data from recovery. Same thing.
5- repeating 1-4 without SD card or SIM card.
- Wipe battery data... nothing...
- Unrooting, same issue, rooted again.
- Run root fixes with Titanium backup. Same...
- Removing battery for hours, while charging it externally, replace battery, same issue.
All to no success. Things yet to try:
- Update to 2.3 using kies
- Update to beta 2.3.5 using odin
- Update to custom rom, maybe try 3 or 4 different...
- Cry, then save and buy a new phone, use cappy as shiny paperweight...
Please let me know if you could fix it...
I'm not sure what you mean when you say "initial battery screen."
But if I am to understand the rest, your problem is:
initial boot - runs fine, but battery stays at 100% no matter how long it runs.
reboot - phone now says the battery is suddenly dead, and shuts-off.
further reboots - same
You can't get the phone to fully boot till the battery is left out for a while and the phone is fully de-energized.
You have tried a different battery and it behaves the same.
- - - - - -
Have you tried using a known "good" battery? (a new one or one from someone who's phone works fine)
Also, what happens if you plug in the USB while the phone is off? (after the inital boot, when it is stuck in the "dead battery loop.")
Still dead after installing update and 2 custom roms...
Yes I tried a good battery from another cappy, if I plug in the cable it does the same, instead of normally booting, it displays an empty battery and goes off.
I am able to make it work but only entering the restore mode, so I cannot for example be on a trip and reset the phone for whatever reason...
have you tried using a different kernel?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using XDA App
sorry, but how can I try a different kernel? do i need to change the rom?
Nah, kernels can be flashed independent of ROMs just look through development for topics that have "[Kernel]" as the fist word in their title.
If you have gone and loaded two custom ROMs and it still persist then it's not a kernel issue. As the kernel is always changed along with the ROM.
That said, I can only think of two other possibilities: one being dirt or such making a short in the contacts of the usb (does it sometimes think it is plugged in when it's not), two something in the circuitry for the battery randomly went bad.
Try cleaning the socket for the usb. If that does not fix then assume the worst
leaked from my ICS- FUSED SGS I897 contaminating you via XDA app.
Ok, here's the thing, I left it without the battery for 24 hrs, then it was worst. The phone would not turn on at all. However, after that I tried putting the battery in while holding the power button, it worked!!! it's better than having to connect to the computer, but still, I don't want to have to do this every time... flashing roms now to try again.
We're getting somewhere now...
DaNaRkI could be right about it being a circuitry problem (which would suck). With that in mind, have you checked to make sure the prongs which connect the battery to the phone are still in good shape?
When you flashed the roms, are you doing complete wipes? (wiping the cache/dalvik/data)? It might be worth it to go one step beyond that and format all the partitions and then reflash. I think if you do that, you could basically rule out any software problems.
Be sure to back up your data!
P.S. When you do all this wiping and formating and reflashing, boot up and check to see if the problem is still there before you put your data back on jic there is some weird corruption in your data which is causing this.
ok.
have you checked to make sure the prongs which connect the battery to the phone are still in good shape?
yes I have, they're perfect
When you flashed the roms, are you doing complete wipes?
many times, actually
I have yet to format all partitions, how can I do that?
Thanks!!
and yes, all my data is well backed up in my PC and cloud...
---------- Post added at 12:31 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------
this is rather odd, just tried to factory reset again, then restarted using the battery method, then... turned it off, and now it boots normally!!!
Thanks for your help !!!
I have the same problem. What exactly did you do? I use a custom rom, and I flashed stock gingerbread 2.3.4.
Formatting the partitions won't do anything, since the phone won't even turn on sometimes. So when exactly did this problem start happening? Was it after a particular flash or other incident?
Hi,
I recently flashed my XXLS7 ROM and while doing so, I was asked to wipe battery stats too, after then I see that my battery % is getting reduced drastically and the worst is that whenever I am in normal mode it shows me 75% but after getting into recovery mode it shows 55% or so. Now I am completely confused whether 100% is actually 100% or not. Any ideas on how to get this problem rectified?
Thanks in advance.
may be you need to do a clean install of the rom again.
use format/system and format /data this time

Thanks, I have tried that option too, but still no help..........
Be patient
Mine was discharging like crazy when media scanner was doing its thing -- just keep a charger handy and stick it on when it gets low. Eventually it should sort itself out.
boot into recovery and wipe battery stats again.. then charge the phone to 100 % and test again.
I had this problem in almost every xxls7 ROM... I tried everything, literally EVERTHING.... i made 3 wipes, format preload format system etc etc... Result is DEVICE IDLE eats battery... I CAN NOT figured out which causes this... But finaly, SweetROM solve the problem... I do not know how but it solved... I tried RR3, Alliance and Stock xxls7... All of them causes battery drain for me but i do not know if it is a problem of all... Anyway, just in case you can try Sweet ROM... At least it does not cause drain when you do not use it...
I have this problem too..
Nokia 3210 with PA Utacka
after restarting the phone go to settings>application>all>media storage and stop it.
on every bootup, media storage process consumes %5-10 battery to scan media files.
you can disable it but the gallery wont work.
you can use Quickpic instead.
good day! has anyone experienced their battery being stucked at 1% after flashing the latest eragon?.. i have flashed eragon v23 in the past without any problems.. saw that the rom was updated so i gave it a go.. 1st download thru androidfilehost was a bad download.. 2nd download thru htcfanboys was a good one. flashed rom perfectly.. flashed kernel ok.. then i just noticed that my battery was 1%.. so i plugged it in my charger light flashed red so i suppose it was charging but battery is not going up.. unplugged it got a reminder that of low battery.. i have unplugged for good 15mins browsing still the battery won't die.. went to recovery found out that my battery was still 75%.. reflashed rom full wipe,cache,data,system.. same issue.. could it be just another bad download?.. or am i missing something?.. thanks for any reply
Bump.
I have the same issue, but with I installed a stock rom. The rom was at 4.4 not 4.4.2 so I downloaded an 180mb OTA, it installed ok, then there was another update 320mb, it also installed ok, but since then the battery is stuck at 1%. Going into recovery shows the battery level corectly though.
Please help
I had the same Problem after flashing a custom Kernel.
Maybe try another one?
Sent from my HTC One
Hi, I just flashed the ElementalX kernel on my rooted T-mobile HTC One. When I rebooted it, I got the warning that there was 1% power remaining. I then charged it for 4 hours, and in phone recovery mode it shows that it is fully charged, but when I boot it back to Android I still get the blinking notification light and message that says there is only 1% left. Has anyone else encountered this? I tried soft-resetting it, reflashing the kernel, and deleting the batterystats.bin, all of which did not fix the problem. Thanks.
