When my phone fully charges it would normally say fully charged and tell me to stop charging as well as having a green LED on. But now it wont show any of those thing and the only way i know its charged is from the 100% battery displayed on status bar and on lock screen. What can i do to fix this?

Ok, so what changed, rooted? different Rom? software you instaled?
Check the accessibility options as well as under security to see what apps have access to your phone.
nothing, i didnt do anything to my phone

Hi,
Did it used to show the green led? or was that a different phone?
If it was this phone then something must have changed on it if it no longer shows that. Also try a different charger if you have one and pull the battery for a few seconds.
settings of led you should check
ok will do but srsly nothing changed. i didnt root the phone or do any other stuff like that. im also using the same charger as i did before when i didnt have this problem. i dont think u cud cause this sort of problem by downloading apps so i dont know why its like this. and just to be sure i checked if it was a hardware problem but it shows the green light when i use this app to show it.

Not strictly true, apps can tke control of certain functions, I do not think the LED control requires root access as there are certain apps where you cna chose the colour of the LED notification without root.
Go to Settings>Accessibility and see what is enabled under Services, Disable them all!
Go to Settings>Security>Device Administrators and see if there is anythimg there. There should not be but check anyway.
The app to show the green led? Did you just install that or was it installed before as it may be that app taking control of the LED, uninstall it.
Also, the LED only turns green when fully charged after about 10 mins or so. And also if you do not have any other notifications showing, so clear them from your notification drop down.
In settings I have disabled the led when charging/charged, however, if I charge it turned off the led is turning red/green when charging/charged. Have you tried with the phone turned off ?
well im trying to discharge my battery then fully charge it while my phone is turned off. I read somewhere that this would work so ill give it a shot first.

Have you checked what I suggested?
You will be wasting your time if an app has control of the led under accessibility options!
im not sure if the led is now working because i didnt wait long enough after it was fully charged or becuase of the method i used but either ways it now works.

Hello,
I was wondering if anybody else experiences this behavior:
From time to time the battery of my Galaxy tab drops to 3% (at least this is what Android tells me). I noticed that this often happens when a view change takes place and when I simultanously press the volume control down. Today it also happened on a view change when I was using Skype. When I reboot the device it's showing a normal battery level again (e.g. 43%).
I wonder if this is a hardware issue or if it's a software bug. Anybody experiencing this,too?

Are you rooted/unlocked/rerom'ed at all?
There are various methods to resetting the batteries calibration, but it just depends on what brand you have/what you've done to it.
This is a fairly common problem, and for the most part can be solved easily.
Hello,
no, it hasn't been not rooted yet. Do I need to root it before I can recalibrate the battery?

Ok, there is an app and I need root for it to work. Seems it is solved now.

Which app are you talking about ? I have a very similar problem -- battery suddenly goes from ~30% to 1%, the tab starts screaming that I should connect to the charger, and (sometimes) shuts off. If I then wait 10 minutes, the battery will show again 30%, and it might run for awhile, go to 1%, where it will happily "run" (albeit doing nothing) for *HOURS*.
I'm rooted, have BatteryCalibrator installed and run it (I charged it fully, ran the calibrator, and am waiting for it to completely drain -- so that it wont even turn on, to charge it up again). So I'm wondering if you've really fixed this, and how.
I've contacted Samsung about my problem (the tab is about 6 months old) and they told me to do a full reset (special key sequence in telephone -- dont know if this is different from the "factory data reset" in Settings->Privacy).
I haven't done anything with this rooted phone yet, as it has unlocked everything, and I want to make sure I understand how to go back to a fully unlocked state before attempting to update (running XWJJ7). I also dont want Samsung to update it if I have to return it for warranty service....
I want to recalibrate my extended battery and wipe data because the operating system is calibrated to the normal battery. My phones currently rooted with frozen apps. I plan on defrosting them before I wipe data. I can't remember if I will need to re root my phone after a data wipe, also should I un root before I wipe the data for re calibration?

There is a recalibration app on the market. No need to wipe all data its free and seemed to work for me
Mind telling me what its called?

After a new calibration does it matter when u charge it and disconnect it? I know at first its bad cause it messes up the calibration but after that does it matter?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
The whole idea of battery calibration is allowing the software to get a good picture of the battery's full potential. After it has that you do not need to worry yourself about how long you charge it or how often.
Alright cool

If I turn a bunch of stuff on to kill the battery faster so that I can charge it over night does that mess up the statistics or no? Like normally I won't have auto sync bluetooth gps and all that on but I turn it on just to kill the battery during calibration that way I can charge it over night but does switching those on during calibration mess up the statistics if they aren't normally used afterwards?
Sent from my DROID3 using XDA App
Your best bet is to kill the battery turn the phone off and charge it overnight. Then turn it on.
Find an hour long youtube video and play it a few times.
Ya but but does turning on a bunch of stuff in order to kill the battery mess with the calibration since I only turned them on to kill it so I could charge it

Looks like Samsung still doing the damn fully charged notification thing, phone was set to silent and vibrations set to only when not in silent mode, but the charged notification still by passes that setting and vibrates and wakes me up!
What idiot at Samsung came up with the fully charged notification app! And how can we disable without a custom rom?

At the morning, i see that it's only 30%.
I checked, Android OS is 82%.
I used to Badass Battery monitor to check, i see that Kernel is 70%.

I don't understand what do you want to say?
can you guide me more detail?

Help me, please.
Bring it to verizon and have them check it out. At worst it could be a bad battery. You can get a replacement online for 10$ or so, make sure to get a OEM one if you do.
My phone will say its fully charged at 95% or so but i let it keep charging and it gets to 100% in a bit.
OMG people...Someone help this poor guy!! gosh gee willy wonkers

The easiest way is to install the Power Control widget on a home screen. The second icon from the right (a white circle with two arrows) turns off automatic data sync for your accounts (Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc.). Turn it off when you go to bed and back on when you wake up.
Alternately in settings->battery & data manager->Battery mode, turn on Nighttime save to turn off syncing while you sleep.
I just charge my phone overnight myself.

I don't think it's cause. Because when i uninstall all social network, and turn off data transfer. The phenomenon's still happening. Android OS is draining my battery so much.
Then I think you might just have a malfunctioning phone or bad battery.
I've had this happen to me before. Are you running a custom rom, hqve you made and mods to your device, do you have alot of junk apps?

You can try a new battery, but if it's under warranty, then sbf it back to stock, and send it in for replacement if the battery doesn't work.

I have reflash with .sbf (890 and 906) by rsdlide (choose file xml, right?)or one click.
But it's also not ok. This problem still appear.
I noticed the notification led doesn't work when a text message arrives and the screen is off.
It only makes a brief blink when you wake the phone and there's an incoming message, or any other notifications that would blink the led with the screen off.
Of course all my apps are configured to use the notification led.
I'm on stock fw .223
Is it a bug?
Not sure but check if the extended stanby mode is checked in the power management.maybe it's for saving battery

I've enabled it, and it doesn't say anything about the notification led.
BTW, a microscopic blinking led consuming battery?
Yes and the process too but just a bit. Don't check the box and test it.
