Hello friends!
I am presently on Simplicity Xmas with the latest Semaphore Kernal. Problem is the battery. When I disconnect my phone from the charger after it is fully charged to 100%, it instantly shows 94% after the charger is disconnected. I am just not able to understand why this is happening.
I thought this is because of some battery calibration problem. So I did the battery calibration as explained by a few members in this forum. I also took take to flash the ROM when my battery was fully charged. I am still facing this problem.
Can some one please help me with this?
It's normal. This question has been asked many times since the early GB or late Froyo days; I couldn't recall. Google it and you'll get the reason to why this happens easily.

Hi guys,
after flashing the starburst rom and over clocking and several tries to calibrate the battery my battery is still draining a mile a minute. I used the battery calibration app....have let the battery fully drain and charge at least 5 times now and I still can't get back my battery life!
I'm thinking the root of the problem, well...when I go to settings than battery use it says the screen is using between 70-80% of the battery...I am assuming that what is sucking the life out of my battery but I have no idea how to fix it. my screen time out is at 30 seconds...brightness is almost as low as it can get. ITS DRIVING ME NUTS
I am assuming I calibrated the battery correctly cause it does not drain at all when the screen is locked.
please, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated, I am ready to rip my hair out!
I just opened battery calibration app its at 70% 4mv isn't it supposed to be like 4000mv? or is just abbreviated?
I just flashed a new rom and still having the same issue!
trying to calibrate the new rom using battery calibration and its barely charging...been stuck on 61% 4mv for about a half hour now..
is it possible that this problem is being caused because I installed the roms with ROM manager and not CWM?
I apologize for what questions may seem dumb...I am a noob....but i have searched relentlessly for answers on this specific problem here with out finding much yet.
disregard that last question..lol..u can see how badly this has my brain turned upside down
My battery charge fluctuates, sometimes it goes up from 5% to 35%, sometimes it seems depleted (2%) and if I check in 15 minutes it's 10% and so on.
I'm running CM 7.2 and previously Darky ROM 10.2. Since this started happening I've used a couple of the top-rated battery calibration tools, but to no avail.
Any ideas? Is it a hardware problem? Or a driver problem with the custom ROMs? Or something else?
Try the following If you haven't already.
Charge phone until it says it's full.
Discharge until it turns off. Try to turn it on to make sure it's absolutely flat.
Do this again.
Then charge it periodically so that you keep the percentage between the 20 and 90 approximately, and see if it improves.
Repeat first steps.
Wiping battery stats and similar "calibration" has no effect on neither the percentage shown or battery performance.

Thanks for the advice, I'll try it and see what happens. Any ideas to the cause of all this? Also, would buying a new battery help?
I don't really know the reason why this is happening, Li ion batteries can be somewhat of a black arts.
A new one should fix it anyway, and they're very cheap where I live at least

I passed through Same problem when i had updated my mobile to jelly bean for first time. But after 7-8 days fluctuates is decreased from +/-20% to +/- 2%. And fluctuates are gone after 20 days.
So dont worry, just wait for 20 days.
I have a Galaxy Nexus, not rooted, and it does this all day. 80%, 14%, 78%. All in a matter of minutes.
I'm discharging fully then doing a full charge to see if it changes anything.
My Sensation never did this and the apps I have are the same. In fact I've installed less on the Nexus...
same problem
i also have this same problem, check this thread...

no one gave me the correct cause or solution.i've done everything i can but no luck.if you get any correct cause or solution pls let me know.anyway I am planning to buy a new battery....
Hy I suppose that I'm not the only one having battery problems on CM10.
First issue is that my batter doesn't ever charge to 100%, it stopts around 98% and never get higher even if I let it charging whole night.
Also juice started to drain faster since I started flashing this ROM.
Do you have any suggestion what could help me solve those issues?
Thanks in advice
So my X1 running Code Butter NAND ROM is experiencing a 3% battery drain per hour. It's not really that much of a big deal since I can make it last a day on idle state, but what's the use of that? I even bought a new battery. I did all the drain the battery first procedure and charge it fully thing already. Last night, I charged it. At 6:00 AM, I unplugged it. When I came back home, the battery readings were at 60%. It was at 100% when I unplugged it. Please help me with this problem.
Before giving any tips, here's what I have already done since I did some research on the forum...
I have reflashed my device. I have been flashing different kinds of ROMs but still experiencing the same battery drain.
I don't have any apps which may be the cause of this. If there is an app, it must be Swapper 2. It's kind of famous already.
I always calibrate my phone after flashing. I just flashed it 2 days ago. Calibrating actually fixed the battery indicator.
I have used CPU Spy. According to the readings, my phone enters deep sleep.
I don't use any task killers. I do have a rebooter app which can hot boot the device. However, I don't use it very much because of the speed Swapper is giving.
I have cell radio turned on. That's it. I don't have any other connections. I don't have 3g or whatever.
Even though my phone enters deep sleep, I have installed betterbatterystats XDA version. Unfortunately, I didn't find anything interesting.
I don't have any battery saving apps. I used to have JuiceDefender Ultimate. However, it didn't do much. It still drains 3% per hour.
Please help me with this problem. I think I'm starting to annoy people for asking so many questions. This shall be the last thread I'll ever make. I only start new threads if I can't find any solutions. Please help me.
Well, the battery driver in the kernel isn't optimized nor completed, so there is a major general problem with it... Currently CoolrunnerII is "playing" with an X1 to try to map everything, but as Elibl discovered, the battery driver isn't correct and should be replaced with the same as x10... But until then, the battery is draining just like this.
Yes, but there might be a solution.
I'm getting tired of all these android issues. I'll just install Windows Mobile 6.5 with the HARET.exe thing. Thanks for the help anyway. What's the best "HARET" android for your opinion?
Twizdroid or sensedroid
Hi there, if you will be trying again someday a NAND ROM, here is a solution that worked for me: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=16808932
I have bought a new battery and now on NAND ROM ZeamDroid v.7.2.1 my battery drain is about 1% per hour in sleep mode. Apps that I use: SetCPU and Battery Monitor Widget.
We don't have the same device but we seem to have the same issue.
Did you ever find out how to fix it ?
A few days ago, after the firmware Milestone #6 there was a problem with the battery in a tablet. Every hour, even in flight mode the battery loses about 4-5% charge.
If the tablet charge and leave overnight in the mode of flight, in the morning, it would be only about 60% of the charge.
I tried flashing the different firmware, even Android 2.2, deleted file batterystats.bin, nothing helps.
If the tablet actively use all in order, as before, but no-load consumption charge has increased.
Another couple of days ago and everything was fine. I'm afraid if I buy a new battery will not solve the problem and only in vain spend money.
Tell me can have the solution.
P.S. Sorry for my English.
