Hi there,
I have problem with my wife's Mini. Her battery is drained out so fast and even it's 100% charged, when I turn off the phone and trying to power on, only vibration and empty battery icon is showed up. I can go in Downloading or Debug mode menu and when I put the device in the charger, it starts normaly. I thought, that battery is dead, so I ordered the new one - original. But it has the same problem. So problem is in the device. I tried to flash it to GB (originaly there was Froyo) and hope, that battery stats will be fixed. After installing CWM I tried to delete battery stats in the menu. But the same problem. Now there is CM7 and the same issues. Does some1 has any tip how to fix it?
Thanks a lot
Try battery calibration in cwm
Wipe cache and dalvik cache
If it doesn't help take your sgm to a service center

I accidentally did a batt wipe of stats.. So now it's at 10% and stays there... the g/f has exact same phone (hero cdma).. If I put her battery in mine when its fully charged can I do batt wipe stats again in clockwork to get my battery working again??
Just let your phone die, and do a full charge and you should be fine

You can rebuild your stats simply by letting your phone die and then charging it to full a couple of times. You actually wipe your batt stats every time you wipe to flash a rom because they are stored on /data/
when it's plugged in I don't get the green status bar filling up like charging. Just stuck on a slight bit of green and the lightining symbol as charging.. gonna try letting it die and charge again like you said.. guess if all else fails i can try to use the g/f's battery later
Update... is charging and battery meter has went to full but not green led yet... Thank you guys. will try battery wipe stats after batt is fully charged
Phone is completely dead now... won't take a charge.. no amber light.. nothing.... gonna try g/f's batt later
Have you tried pulling your battery and putting it back in?
Wiping ths stats shouldn't cause that.

Oh yes.. multiple times.. Still to no avail... brand new battery too. got it from sprint yesterday.. First Hero I rooted i was stupid by flashing the radio and reboot too soon so it bricked it.. gave me a new phone with the old battery.. battery dies so I went back and got the good one.. now thats bad. I had put cm6.1 on when I got the new phone back.. had noticed the tech guy removed my backup of the stock rom.. he noticed that I had rooted it to cm6.1.. D/l'd the stock rom and backed that up too.. had been running 2.1 all since I got the phone
Update.. All is well again.. g/f got home and used her batt to fix my F ups.. wiped and wiped again then flashed to stock ROM.. will recalibrate with stock ROM and flash CM after batt issue is done and fully charged.. Must have flashed CM wrong or at the wrong time with my batt level..
Just an FYI, you need to calibrate with each ROM you flash, as the stats get wiped.

When charging the battery (after wiping battery stats and letting the phone battery discharge until phone shuts off) should you power the phone on after plugging it in or should you leave the phone powered off when fully recharging? Or does it not matter?
Let phone die
Charge to 100%
Boot to recovery
Wipe stats
Reboot while still plugged in
Unplug when phone is fully booted
Fully discharge and recharge a couple more times

What do you Mean by Calibrate with Each Rom??

So I bought a brand new battery off ebay, wiped the battery stats and everything else on the phone and I installed a new ROM.
I followed Cyanogen's Wiki battery wipe procedure.
My problem is that when I get to the last step the battery doesn't seem to recharge to 100% even when left overnight; but if I reboot it it will go to 99.9% then 100%
Is this normal for a new battery?
i think the proper way to charge a new battery is to keep the device off and let it fully charge, than turn it on..? maybe.. im not 100% sure lol

dont know if anyone had that issue but i did too. best way is charge the phone to 100%, leave it plugged still boot to recovery, wipe stats, reboot, let it sit for a couple of minutes then you can unplug. or download this app Battery Calibration and when your phone is fully charged, just open the app, calibrate the battery, unplug and go
ps the G1's battery sucks monkey balls, but if you find a stable and decent rom/kernal, itll last you a whole work day with minimum usage, and having data off
NC battery can be charged, the indicator will turn green, the use of normal, NC battery has been displayed 11%,How to make the battery indicator to 100%?
Reset battery stats
Try rebooting into recovery and under advanced reset battery stats.

i also have this issue, but stuck at 31%. nothing works... tried clearing nc batt stats, manually deleting the batt stat file, and the app which doesn't work since its waiting for batt to hit 100% and forcing it does nothing too.

I had this same issue. I tried every app suggestion I could find online and even cleared the battery stats in recovery, but had no luck.
Eventually I think I had an OTA update break my root so I had an excuse to do a system wipe/update (from 1.2 to 1.3 I think it was) and while I was in clockwork mod recovery I did a complete system wipe (format everything, restored to 1.0.0) and reset the battery stats. When I finished the manual update to 1.3 and rooted, the problem had gone away.
I'm currently running eyeballer's CM9 nightly and have had no further problems with the battery indicator.
Hi guys,
Since last week my Ace battery react very weird, it drains from 100 to 10 in just few hours. Currently im on Meizu ROM. (Previous ROMs: Democracy, MiUi, Nightly)
I have applied many tweaks to save battery life but all went in vain.
Guys please suggest me for this situation.
Thanks,
Swapnil
Change ROM and try..If its still not working, get a new battery
Controversies,controversies everywhere :what:
Already changed the ROM from democracy to Meizu, but problem still persist.
Is there any tweak to save my battery apart from the new battery option?
Thanks,
Swapnil
check if something prevents your device from entering deep sleep. (background processes)
then charge your battery, wait till its full (till you get notification in setting, that is isnt charging anymore)
=>
use the hell out of you battery, till completly depleted and phone shuts down.
=>
recharge battery, wait till you get notification that its full => keep charging for some hours. (best way to do this is to charge overnight.)
might work...or not. just try it.
Check whether the battery is swollen or not
If swollen replace it immidiately
This only could be the problem

Is this a new ROM that you just switched to? I had faced a similar issue when I switched to one of the ROMs. Thankfully it wasn't a batter issue. Let your battery reach 100%, go to CWM recovery, in advanced select wipe battery statistics, do not charge the battery till the battery goes to 0 and the phone dies. Check after that. You can check your battery health by dialling *#*#4636#*#* and going into battery information
Hi,
Thanks all of you for your reply, the problem is somewhat resolved.
I have wiped out battery status, installed the batterybinstat apk and its worked for me. Now my battery last for 1 day with wifi on.
Thanks,
Swapnil
I havent installed a custom ROM in a while so I was feeling bored and downloaded a new ROM, copied the files overs and booted to TWRP recovery and wiped everything. I cant remember what all but i think whatever was available to wipe, I wiped
I then installed ADB to my new PC and my phone was not showing up in fastboot or adb (possible driver issues) and eventually the battery died while in the recovery.
I plugged the phone into the charger and it kept showing the battery empty icon and was not charging at all. I left it on charge for hours but nothing happened.
I eventually got a new battery and while the battery still had life in it I charged it full and then went on to install a ROM from my old PC that already had adb and I used to use it previously for installing custom ROMS.
No the phone works but dies randomly at different battery percentages. Sometimes at 60% othertimes at 40% etc..
Battery drain doesnt seem too bad. When I disable wifi, bluetooth and NFC the battery only drains 50% after 24 hours but if I leave wifi on it drains faster.
When I try to play games at 100% battery after 30 minutes the battery would be at 75% and then just shutdown saying 0%.
Then I plug it into the charger and while the phone is off it'll start charging from 0% and when it reaches 25%, if I turn it on it shows 70%
Could I have deleted / wiped files that I was not suppose to that could cause this kind of a problem?

Try to make a clean ROM installation with prior the fw and formating data with yes.....
Follow installation instructions of the chosen ROM step by step and don't delete everything again except with format data yes
Did you say you installed a new battery? Was it from official service center? You can use some battery monitoring apps like Better Battery stats /GSAM etc and see what's really causing it. Otherwise fresh install, check for few days.
So you got a new battery as a replacement. If you just got this online then there's a high chance the battery is a scam and is not exactly 5020 mAh. I know this because I'm a victim of this too on my older phone, I literally have the same issue. I suggest to get a new replacement, making sure to get it from official Mi Store or service center. In the meantime, calibrate your battery by emptying to 0% (till the phone dies) then charge to 100% while off. Repeat a couple of times and the battery percentage should display correctly. There's also a suggestion of clearing batterybin stats or similar to Poco x3 Pro where you calibrate PMIC, no harm in trying because I tried it before too and it didn't seem to cause any issues.
Here's a link to the guide if you're interested:
Calibration of the PMIC (Vayu/Bhima/Surya) via fastboot.
⚠️HONESTLY READ THIS WARNING ONCE! - CALIBRATION OF THE IC, WOULD NEITHER RESULT IN A HARD BRICK/PREVENT BRICK. AS TO BE CLEAR WITH THIS *HOW TO THREAD*, IS ONLY MENT FOR PEOPLE HAVING PARTIALLY BUGGY PMIC, FACING AFOREMENTIONED ISSUES, HAVING...

But the same issue happened on the original battery also
"I cant remember what all but i think whatever was available to wipe, I wiped"
So you wiped internal storage? That's probably causing issues.
Yep I think I did or at least some of it idk.. Can that be fixed?
Re-flash Stock ROM.
BTW: Always use Android USB drivers provided by phone's OEM, not those found in Android platform SDK. Then phone should get detected via USB.
