Usally I use battery monitor. I also tried Ampere and currentwidget. Non of them can display the discharging current ... mostly readings are around 0 mA.
Any idea which app to use would be very welcome
Most Samsung devices don't give correct battery current, hence 0 mA, it's just a firmware problem (It just remains at "1" in the SysFS as far as I can tell, mV Measurements are correct though). As for charging current, you can check it via the SysFS value "/sys/class/power_supply/sec-charger/current_now"

Hi, I just got a TMO Wing. Thanks for many threads here, I downloaded Statusbattery and overclocked my wing to 247. It works great. I have a question regard the accuracy of batterystatus. I underclocked to 156Mhz just to save battery yesterday so it can last a bit longer until I can recharge it at home. However, I found that the current drain shown in batter status is 177mA. I changed it back to 201 MHz, it show 112 mA, but if I overclocked it to 247mA, it showed 64mA. What just happened? Is something wrong with my phone? I thought that the lower the clock goes, the less current it drains. And all the cases were when Wifi and bluetooth disable. Only the phone option is on. No other background app is running.
Best regards
it's called batterystatus, first of all
anyway. Its possible that the amperage meter refreshes at a different rate than the clock speed. Or it could just be that it's wrong.
Its also possible that the processor is being actively used, even if nothing else is running.
It also could be that a slower clocked processor needs more power to get things done than a faster one because it takes a longer. The faster clockspeed finishes quickly, so it can idle at 64mA.
Your guess is as good as mine. Try setting it low, then waiting a while
AS THE TITLE .............. ( for ex. Galaxy S )
No, due kernel limitations (and you cant change that, due locked bootloader). Check older threads, it should be stated somewhere.

Nope.
But it's not too difficult to get an accurate idea of what percent it's at.
Use Battery Monitor Widget which uses very little resources and have it display the mV.
Full battery is 4200mV
Empty is 3200mV
The difference is 1000mV so the math is easy to do in your head.
Say it's at 3900 mV
It's 3900-3200 = 700 which is 70% (do 700/1000% or 700/10)
So, even if the phone tells me 60 or 80%, I know that it's really 70%
To make it even easier, what I really do is I just do 9-2 and add a 0. 70 heh
And if it's 3550 you know its basically 550-200 = 350 which is 35%

It's a good app
BUT
regarding Full battery = 4200mV
My MS when battery is full = 4194mV ( after calibration )
only one single time i saw battery = 4200mV
Is it OK ?????
Yep it's ok
I wouldnt' worry about that too much
Using the voltage to gauge charge state isn't so great because it also drops under load. You can see this using BMW - set it to show two graphs and compare "voltage" with "available". Every time you wake the phone up the voltage drops.
With the extra contacts, the battery pack perhaps has a "coulomb counter" (e.g DS2740) to very accurately track current going both ways. If we can communicate with this chip (or chips) in the battery pack, we can do our own "available" calculations.
Or can we patch the kernel (binary) so it doesn't round off the percentage?
I'm using the 1800 mAh aftermarket battery, but my voltage based and system returned values are ridiculously different. I think I've got lots of battery left,but the system shuts down when the system returned value shows zero, yet the voltage based may still show as high as 50%.
What's with the discrepancy? How do I fix it? I've run battery calibrators, but to no avail.
Thanks in advance.
Does anybody know of an App that will Display Cpu use battery charge mA and temperature?
I have apps that do some but not all.
Thanks on advance.
temp+cpu v2
displays the temp, the speed the cpu is running and free ram, doesnt disaaly the ma tho
Battery monitor widget by 3c. Displays battery level, voltage, temperature in notifications bar.
It also has battery history, high temperature and voltage, full charge and charge complete alerts.
Perfect system monitor showed promise but does not work on my install
Did you try BMW ?
You need to download notifications separately.

I keep seeing it but thought it was something to do with the car!
What info can it display?
Battery temp, battery level, ma, estimation.

It can display temp, level, ma on notification bar. You do not need to pull it down.
I find BMW really useful for monitoring the battery drain, yet afair Note's chipset does not provide direct mA values, so what BMW does instead is estimate the current based on % of battery usage over time - in other words - those are not exact values, and updates mores frequent than 5 minutes are pointless and waste battery by itself
I am just wanting somthing that will tell me if the battery is still charging after it has reached 100% I had one instance where the battery got hot while full and sitting at Idle which is why I also wanted to see CPU on the battery graph
I was wondering if there was an option/module to make any battery percentages have one decimal place. (e.g. 25.2%)
Generally the decimals are for phones that support turbo charging of/above 30W, and only work in stock rom to obtain precise information
Since Redmi note 10 5g doesnt support turbo charging, you cant get it, even on stock rom, and almost impossible on GSI - well, could have a possibility if it supported turbo charging and to have decimal percentage
Well maybe a module to calculate battery percentage in float form and then round it to 1 decimal point

on my Qualcomm dirty cheap phone
while true; do cmd battery set level $(cat /sys/class/power_supply/bms/capacity_raw | cut -c1-3); sleep 1; done;
498% is 49.8% xD
Is there a way to include the decimal?
