Hi all, is there any recommended way for start using a new battery? I.e. used until finish before first charge or straight charge to full after replace old battery? For first time full charge, need to over charge it, I.e. 8 hours?
Thanks.

Thank you for your reply. I had start using the new battery. This is the first time I used until left 0% and it still able to sustain more than 20 minutes with 3G and WiFi hotspot on. Anyway to calibrate it? I already wipe battery stats in recovery before start using the new battery.

How much time i need to charge the xperia z for the first time ?
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda app-developers app
So far, I charged mine or about 45 mins before turning it on using the wall charger, then let that drain to nothing, then did a USB charge which took a while (around 5 hours before the fully charged light came on) and now the battery seems pretty good and is getting better. Apparently it has a big impact on how you charge it, fast vs slow, for the first few times, so do some reading around if you havent already : )

Hi everybody.. i'm encountering this problem with my HTC one. When I reach the 20 %-9 % range of the battery the one shut down. Try to reboot and shut down again on lock screen.then I'm forceed to put it on charge. Why this strange behavior ? Battery is broken or not calibrated?or a bug? Please help !!

If i remember their is a battery calibration file somewhere in the system, if it is deleted it causes the phone to re-calibrate the battery gauge, have you tried a battery re-calibration app from the app store, i think this is what they do.

All stock!

If it`s all stock and you dont want to root, all you can do is full charge and then run it till it shuts down a couple of times and hope the battery gauge learns the true battery capacity, if this does not work.
Or you could try charging it to 100% and keep it plugged in, then do a restore to factory defaults while plugged in, then see if that fixes it.
If this does not work, you might have a faulty battery, get a replacement phone.

Found this fix online, see if it works.
Option 2: (No Root) Physical Battery Calibration This option is also very simple, but at the same time, a little more time consuming. If you have a rooted device, Option 1 is definitely the way to go. However, if you don’t know what “root” means, stick with Option 2 and go check out the root section of Android Authority.
Turn your phone on and charge it for 8 hours or more.
Unplug the charger.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug the charger.
Turn on the phone and wait 2 minutes.
Turn your phone off and charge it for one hour.
Unplug, turn it on and use as normal. Your battery life should now be a lot better.
Ever since I updated to 4.3, my battery life sure has been strange! I charge it overnight, sometimes over 12 hours, and when I take the battery off the charger, it reads to only 85%! Up till today I would leave it off the charger for a while and then it would charge the rest of the way. Then, today, I took it off the charger, waited about an hour and put it back on. The battery stalled at 85% no matter how long I left it on the charger.
This started after I took the OTA update. I rooted after I took the update and changed to the Stock With Goodies rom. I'm on Stock With Goodies 2.03 now. I did a full wipe before flashing 2.03, so I don't think a full wipe is the answer.
Is this just a bug with 4.3? What can I do about it?

Stock rooted, and while it charges to 100%, when I unplug it, it goes down to 97% or so. I have now started turning it off and letting it charge until notification light turns green and that seems to stick.

Well, I'm glad I'm not alone. And thank you for offering your help. But I can't afford to turn the phone off for an extended period of time right now. So does anyone have any other solutions?

I forgot to mention I also calibrated it after turning it on. You could always try this app.

Try battery calibration from the play store.

Yup, you should always calibrate your battery anytime you flash a new Rom or update.

Hey guys,
I replaced my battery with a new Samsung battery for note and it seems to be working fine. But at times, or may be every time i put my phone on charge, it heats up a lot and doesn't charge at all, when i notice, i unplug it, switch it off and charge again and it works.
Any idea what is going wrong? This never happened with the battery. Also this new battery takes almost 4 hours to get fully charged.

Does the problem come after replacing the battery? If yes try to ask samsung
Hope it help

One question! Today i decided to charge my phone with its original charger for the first time! I plugged in the charger and after 20 mins or so i smelled like something was burning! Went to check the charger and it was halfway melted but the phone was still showing like it was charging! I disconnected it immediately and continued charging it with another charger! Now after fully charged my battery drops like a stopwatch! I wanted to ask a question ! Has anything happened to the phone or it is just a coincidence??

Well if it still charges then it's ok. I had a similar issue but it cooked the USB port on the phone end. Give it a few full charge and discharge cycles. If the battery is draining quick then I'd do a warranty job

Battery seems ok now after a day! Same screen on time and everything seems ok! Guess htc have implemented a safety mechanism on chargers end to protect the phone!
