Hello, friends
I was install a new rom, I did everything right, root, update the CMW, but when I went to install the rom (CM10 Unofficial) phone was automatically turn off, because low battery power. I open the Recovery menu I went out that the load was 0%. Wait till it is complete at 100% (in 8 minutes the charge is 0% to 100% charge), and reinstall the rom, switched on the battery was full, but after 7 minutes or less and went out ..
Now i insalled CM10 for Cooper, , and as usual, when I try to charge the battery till 100% to calibrate, charge loaded 100% very fast (5 minutes) and did not charge more ..
I've tried calibrating and nothing
because, battery not charge completely, the percentage is 100% but is false.
Thanks and sorry for my english
AW: Help. The battery is charged to 100% fast
Its simple.
Your battery is dead
Have the same issue on my battery (almost 2y old).You must order a new one :beer:

Go to battery usage. Despite the 100%, it will show charging.
That means it is charging.
Either that, or buy a new battery.

Sorry my friend your Battery is Gone.
Take out the back panel and then take out the battery and see if it's swollen.
If it is ..I'm afraid you will have to buy a new one.
Don't keep using that it's Dangerous.

My battery never charges above ~76% when plugged in. After rebooting however, it is very much at 100% and lasts for a good amount of time. This is not necessarily a question, but I wonder if others are experiencing this too and if there is a fix? Read below.
I noticed that my battery life got very bad after installing custom roms. I also found out that this happened because I sometimes kept the phone plugged in while flashing, something that totally screws up the battery reading. So, I followed this guide to calibrate my battery and it worked.
Now, whenever the phone is plugged in it NEVER goes to 100% when charging. Maybe 80% if leaving it for a while (10 hours overnight). I'm worried about frying the battery. Is there a fix?
It is only a matter of presentation. It actually doesn't mean your batt is broken. Plug it and charge it overnight. Then discharge only for few percent and plug it back in. It should go to 100%.

Thanks, I'll give it a try.
What I'm concerned about is if the phone "thinks" the battery isn't recharged and keeps squeezing juice into it when in fact it is full (which a reboot will show)? That's not good for the battery. It should go into trickle charge after reaching 100%..
The process described in the desire forum is also known as formatting the battery. In fact most of battery manufacturers (lithium battery manufacturers) recommend doing this in a slightly different way:
Before first use:
1.) Before powering the device on, plug it in and let it charge until the LED is green (fully charged)
2.) Then take the battery out of the device and wait an hour (to make sure all the chemical processes in the battery are as idle as possible)
3.) Then plug it back in, while still off and let it charge untill green LED
4.) use the device....
You can practice this slightly modified with first step being:
Discharge the battery (by normal use)until only few percent are left (1 - 5 % are OK)
I've done these steps with my Mugen extended battery and I was getting around 4 - 5 days on Legend, now I'm getting 2 - 3 days on Desire S, but the ROM isn't very optimized yet, I believe it will be better in time...
Just one thing... Why is this in Development!?
No Idea.....
can mods move this?

Definitely did not solve it but at least the battery performance is ok. It just stays at 78% for a few hours drops from there. Very weird but as long as the battery doesn't get broken I guess it's ok.
Do you have some 3rd party battery installed in your Legend? I have one 1,5 Ah in mine and it is acting the same way. It doesn't bother me too much coz it was cheap... it lasts 48 hrs with data always on and moderate usage. I noticed this that when I charge it overnight and it reaches 80%, unplugging it stays at 80% for several hrs and just after it starts dropping if I plug it again, meter reaches 100%. It's weird but as I said I can live with that
I've got exactly the same issue with stock 2.2 ROM. I've never rooted or CM my phone; I was wondering if CM would do it, but doesn't look like it.
android forums /htc-legend/265545-battery-doesnt-fully-charge.html
(sorry, I can't post links; maybe an admin can fix the link for me?
This seems to indicate it's a phone hardware fault and requires a new Legend to fix! My big worry is, as stated, that the charging light never goes green; therefore is pumping lots of power into a potentially full battery.
The last couple of days I've got a weird problem. When my battery is fully charged everything seems okay and it drains in normal speed (compared to stock).
But when my phone runs out off battery and i start to charge in the beginning everything seems fine.
But suddenly it can go from 75 to 100% in 1 minute.When i look at the stats in MIUI ROM it seems like it's not at same height as it was the last day of 100%. Maybe only 80%.
Sorry for my bad English, but i hope it makes sense.
I've wiped battery stats in CWM. But is it possible that the phone actually is only 80% charged, even though the indicator shows 100% after wipe?
Because if the ROM think the battery is charged and wipe stats it will afterwards only charge to that point and the battery maximum will decrease over days?
If that's possible, how do i full charge the battery? Just leave it in the charger or?
I hope you can understand what I mean.
Thanks in advance
Hello
Does your phone charge to fx 75% and after that doesnt get higher until after you restart the phone?

Yes excactly. But the numbers differs.
Today it charged to 100% though.
Got the same problem?
Sent from my Optimus 2X using XDA App
have you try calibrate your batt again
yes my friend have this problem too, maybe there is software bug
After flashing Celebration HD 2.0.1b I first used Battery Calibration from market to wipe battery stats. Afterwards the battery indicator problems started.
Yesterday i decided to wipe battery stats manually in CWM and drain to phone to 2% before charging, and afterwards I was able to fully charge the phone.
So maybe the bug in is Battery Calibration app?
I decided to install Juice Plotter to monitor the battery and compare it to one build in in MIUI. Just to get some more data.
Hello again
Yes i had the same problem as you, with my previosly 2 lg optimus 2x, and returned them because of the problem you mentioned. I am on the third op2x and luckily this work good
So if i were in your position i would try to go to the dealer and shift the phone with another lg optimus 2x.
Best regards

The user said that he started to have problem after a new rom and wiping battery stats, changing phone for that is not the smartest move at all. Is like changing phone because your rom doesn't work.
I have a similar problem, after you wipe battery stats you don't have a reliable indicator, for me the phone took 3 hours to get from 99 to 100%.
I also noticed that my miui ( 1.8.5 same for 1.7.29) doesn't update battery stats when the screen is off so all those plotter don't work, and i think this messes up with the battery indicator (I guess the phone doesn't have enough data to make a decent estimate)
I think is miui + wipe battery stats that can be problematic
I know that but i am just saying that i also had the same problem with the stock rom.
Best regards

How old is the battery? How many cycles does it have?
I know from laptop Li-Ion batteries that the voltage vs. capacity is not linear.
When discharging, the voltage will steadily drop to a "wear-level" where it will jump to an almost depleted level. When charging, this "wear-level" will be at the top.
Why I am telling this? Because if this mapping is kept in SW and you wiped it, Android needs to relearn it again. So at 1st complete charging/discharging you would see a % sudden drop/raise, but at the next cycles it would be linear with time (although the total time will be smaller than a new battery).
When laptop/phone battery tips talk about calibration, it is so whoever monitors the voltage (circuit in battery or SW) to know were the wear drop will be, so your estimates to be better.
As an example, I had a very old Thinkpad that did not have any calibration, and it would discharge to about 40% and drop to 5% within seconds. But when charging, it would raise steadily to 70% (from that 5%) but 70% to 95% in seconds. After years of use, that percentage gap would just increase (40-5 got 60-5, 70-5 on discharging).
PS: my current Thinkpad has 4 years and the battery capacity is 49% with 150 cycles. But this one has a nice feature where if the battery was above a certain percentage, plugging AC would not charge it (and thus save a few cycles). I used it set at 70%.
PS: LiIon batteries have cycle count, heat and time as main enemies. Also don't like prolonged (think storage) low charge.

I have when i turn off my fhone and i charge it it shows a battery icon whit an error in it ics lgp990 please help i dont no what tho do
hello
i just wanna ask something about my battery life on my x8...here's how it goes first i fully charge my battery up to 100% until it says on status battery full...then i unplugged it..after it i texted for a few minutes...and i check the status of my battery and it says: 28 mins 23s on battery..my battery is on 96%..is this normal.? or somethings draining my battery,?
i use minicm7 2.2
this is normal since battery is heating itself while charging, and when it cools down it shows less percentage of itself... to maximaze your current battery life, calibrate the battery:
1. charge it to 100% no more no less
2. leave the charger PLUGGED IN, and reboot to CWM
3. there you should find somewhere under options or advanced "wipe battery stats", and you press that
4. reboot your device and when it starts up it will show about 91%, charge it to 100% and you have your battery calibrated
NOTE: the charger is always plugged in
ok thanks i'll try it... one question should i drain the battery before calibrating it.?..as in zero percent??

Yes , that is recommended.
Also , one advice from me.
Even after calibration , whenever your phone says 100% charged , reboot it while the charger is plugged. You will get the exact battery charge after reboot.
Do it every time your recharge your phone.
Then stop rebooting when you get a 99% or 100% after a fresh reboot. Trust me , it helps.
ok thanks for the advice i'll try that too...
it is normal dude ....mine is giving 1day on heavy use
use zepplinrox's supercharge script...it really made a CONSIDERABLE change to m battery usage time
I have one question: "Why my battery is giving 6-8h. My battery 2 days ago giving 24 and more hour." Sorry for my English, but i am from Poland
what happened 2 days ago? did you install new ROM?
The OP might not have needed to install a new ROM, just an APP or maybe just a combination of APPs running. My phone sometimes canes the battery in a couple of hours from 50% to nothing for no apparent reason. On both stock and custom (actually better battery life on custom) it lasts about a day but sometimes about 6 hours! Not sure what is going on as this happened on both the stock 1.6, 2.1 and the custom 2.3.4!
Hey guys, I have flashed my stock rom to CM7 a couple of days ago (Nightly stable build from August 5th).
Everything works GREAT, but I have only one concern about it:
After charging completely the phone (I use battery widget and I wait untill the bolt is not there anymore. The ace can be like 1 hour at 100%!), I unplug the charger and notice the battery drops from 100 to 98 or 97 (sometimes 96) in a matter of seconds! After that drop, the drain goes completely normal, even better than on my stock rom. The stock rom didn't do this initial drop, but it also didn't use to show the real battery status either.
After some researching I read somewhere that this behavior is completely normal on these li-ion batteries and that phones tends to charge to 100%, then let drain the battery about 4/5% and then charge again to 100 (you never really see this) so you can leave it plugged in for as long as you like.
Anyways, anyone experiencing this behavior with its ACE on CM7 ? Do you know if this is something normal on this phone ?
Thanks!!
Li-ion batteries should never hold a full charge.....so when the phone reaches 100% it will go into trickle charge mode .

Try calibrate your batery after flash new ROM.
Or when charging try to go --> settings --> about --> status --> battery status.
There you will see, if your battery is full or still charging
Yup. Calibrate your battery
1st charge to 100%
then switch off
remove battery for 5 seconds
reboot
Hi guys
My Redmi has experiencing a bit odd behaviour every time I charge his battery
I always do full charging cycles, from 0 to 100%, and than use it till it full drains.
I usually charge it with the phone off
The last couple of times a strange thing happened: I fully charge it from 0, with the phone off, but when I turn the phone on the battery level shows something in the 70% level, the last time it was 77% only., This time I connected it back to the charger, and it went to 100%
I already installed a battery calibrator, but this keeps happening now
I use the original Xiaomi charger, or a Sony charger.
My Redmi is running the stock Marshmallow ROM - that's another funny thing, my phone simply has no updates to Noughat or ahead, I'm in Portugal those updates should have already arrived
So, any suggestion from you?
Regards
Antonio
Most probably your device has fake MIUI vendor ROM. I am guessing this because there's no update you got on your phone.
Redmi 4X has been updated already to MIUI 10 based on nougat 7.1.2.
I would recommend you to backup your all data on phone and clean flash latest stable update and restore back everything.

I'm not very worried about using latest ROM's on my phone, the charging issue is the the thing that annoys me the most, I'll think about updating my phone if and when the other problem gets a solution.
Does anybody has a say on this matter?
You should try to keep your battery level above 50%. Lithium batteries need charge to keep their effectiveness.
Only do 0-100% maybe once a month. When you do, charge the phone when off to 100%. Boot phone, if it is below 100% at startup charge more until it reaches 100%, then restart. Continue this until you get stable 100% or consistently close to it.
Battery calibration apps are trash, don't even bother with it.

Okay here is my thought on your situation.
I charge my phone upto or around 90% to 95% and recharge it when it falls down to around 20% to 25%, due to my daily routine and usage i do get around 20% battery remaining almost everyday and in very rae case it goes below 10% till now for me it never went shutdown due to battery gone full zero.
I have Redmi 1S and i charge like this and i still do get around 2.5 hours of screen on time on it which is great considering it is 4 years old device. and i am still using same original battery came in the box which now shows some ageing signs since it has little bulge on it and sometimes phone shuts downs it self and after turning on it looses 10% to 15% of its charge.
it is recommended to keep some battery % left in phone for good battery health.
over time battery does loose its capacity.
you should consider changing how you charge your phone dont let it charge fully or let it drain fully. when battery drained out completely it does takes some time to hold some charge and when you charge you phone fully the battery does goes back to 99% and goes again to 100% since it is already on charge, this keep happening until stop charging which affects battery capacity and the charge it can hold.
i think in you case this issue happening due to the how you charge your phone.

Thanks for your input
That doesn't make much sense to me since I charge it almost every time with the phone off, so once its 100% the charging process stops, and there's no way the battery should start draining because the phone is off - and even if it was on, it shouldn't loose 25% at once . If it was hardware problem, with the battery getting worn, I would never have the chance to drain it to zero slowly (it would shut down at 10% or so) or get an 100% charge level - and once I turn the phone on, he does go to 100% without any problem, so the battery seems to be ok
I do the same process with my 5 years old Sony Z1, once I charge it 100% I turn it off, and once I turn the phone on again, the battery charging level shows 100%, even If I do it a month after last charging. This old guy's battery is showing first signs of age, nowadays I get half the time I used to, but not that dramatic thing of not be able to do a phone call with 10% battery level.
So, same charger, same process, why my Xiaomi is behaving differently than he used to?
Why the charge level indicates 100% and once I turn the phone on, it shows 70 something %, and than charges without any hesitation to 100% ?

The I am not sure why is that happening suddenly using same process.
I know you've said not interested in flashing ROM just yet but maybe consider changing ROM to official Global/china stable MIUI 8 or latest MIUI 10.
Possible reason for this hardware/battery or software issue.
Maybe get device checked at official xiaomi service center or contact them on customer care support. They should help you the best.
I'm trying to do the update route, but I'm not very confident on my tech skills - and the downloads are failing all the time.
What's the best/easiest way to update my 4x?

Hi
Thanks for your reply, I ended up finding there's a MIUI tool available on playstore with ready updates for most phones, so I just downloaded the updated ROM directly to my phone and installed it.
It even kept all my apps and files, I did some backups in the process but never had to use them
Thank you all guys
have you tried
1) power off the phone and then after few seconds power on
2) charge using a different charger + different cable when your battery level drops below 50%, just to check if the phone still charges to 76-77% or if it charges to 100%.
3) if the above fails you need try factory reset or flash latest MIUI rom
