The first leaked kernels had the slow charge issue. Any of the newer ones will have that issue fixed.

I guess the next question would be, what is a newer one? I still see this problem frequently stated in even recent ROM updates.

Not really. Even IMO's newest kernel still has issues with charging.

Rom updates != kernel updates

Concur. Don't mix the kernel charging issue with a rom.
Every kernel I've tried has the slow charging. Reboot while charging and it's fixed.

I was afraid of that. Thanks for the quick responses.

Since I've completely wiped then installed Gingeritis 1.0 I've had no more charging issues and the battery life is good. When I tried to add a battery mod I got the charging problem back. I restored prior to the mod and battery life and charging is back to good.

[Q] did any of the new GB roms fix the charging issue

So i have been out of the loop for a month or so..really like the roms with sense 3.0 stuff..however i found that it took forever to charge the battery and that was something i couldnt deal with so i went back to froyo..i was wondering if any of the newer roms or kernels have addressed the issue? Thanks a lot...

Well if you include the AOSP gingerbread ROMs then yes. If you're only talking about sense ones, I have no idea.
I think most of the newer kernels have fixed the charging issue. I have run CM7 rc1.2 and gingertheory 5.0 and both have charged just fine for me. The slow charging issue drove me crazy so I can say these roms are charging just fine. I usually do a full charge and wipe the stats after as a personal preference but the charging speed great.
thank you

[Q] Crazy battery charge

I am on CM9 nightly and kernel that comes with it, latest updates always!
And yesterday I charged my SGS2 to 100% unplugged cable and at the morning when I checked it, it was dead! tried to go in download mode, it sayed battery level is too low! and really it drain 100% of battery in 8 hours idle!
Is it possible to fix such a issue?
Yes, by seeing what's using the battery, not by making a new thread with no useful information.

With the amount of battery threads that come up on this site it is surprising you haven't bumped into the routine of downloading betterbatterystats and seeing what is keeping your phone awake. You should also see if this happens on a fresh install with NONE of your apps installed. Completely stock with your contacts synced.
your issue sounds reasonable my device was awake on the 4/29 build, its best to talk about nightly builds in the discussion thread,charge it up and see whats keeping it awake
you wont get help without this

Cyanogen9 is still deep in beta, that means it isn't finished, that means if you have a problem it's because the ROM isn't perfect. Why would you make a forum post about this? It happened once, not even a few times, why the **** would you make a post about something that happened once and you have done nothing to get to the bottom of it? Seriously what.
There are many stable Custom ROM of Android 4.0.x that you can use instead of CM9 'Nightly Builds'....

See this. While this isn't currently a "what's the best ROM" thread, the very nature of your question will result in the same debate those types of threads tend to generate.
Someone could really like a ROM and suggest it to you, and you try it, and you might decide it sucks. Try ROMs out yourself until you find one you like. Don't be lazy.

Latest kernels

Does anyone know where I can go to find the latest kernels for cm7? I've searched through http://www.motosunfire.com/cm7miui/ and it says that they are outdated and need to he updated.
Most of the roms here are working.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1323710
You're going to be looking at the top and strange quark branch.
But then again, I think they are the same ones as those posted on motosunfire.
Either way, they are what I have been using for a while, and they're stable.
Downloading strange quark at the moment. Does cache and dalvik cache have to be wiped in cwm prior to flashing?

Doesnt need to be, but do it to be safe. Also, just so you know, the kernel that comes with cm7 is the best one available. It is the only one that remains to be updated. It isnt overclocked, but overclocking will not be apparent through regular use and the tradeoff is more stability and better battery life.

These are the same ones I have on my site. They are very outdated! They have not been updated for 8 months or more now. I'm not sure they are the best for CM7. Since it is continually updated while those kernels are not.

would anybody happen to have any good cm9 kernels? im on jokers cm9. thank you.

Jokers 1.3 and 1.4 are the only ones available.
So I've been running cm7 with its original kernel for two days now. Battery life is great but I am unsure if my battery icon is displaying the correct percentage. My phone would be discharging and after it hits 80 percent, a few minutes later the batter icon will say 60 or 50 percent remaining. I've tried calibrating the battery yesterday, let it fully charge, boot into cwm recovery, wipe battery stats, boot back into the phone, let it discharge completely, and charge fully, but the icon will never show if I have 70 - 79 percent remaining.
Here's a screen shot of battery usage. The meter would just have a sudden drop in an instant .

Normally this will subside after going through a few charge cycles. If it continues to do this after a a few days, then assume something is wrong.
Just curious, if i flashed the kernel from CyanMobile gingerbread, will it work with cm7?
The ramdisk is different in cyanmobile. But I made a cm7 version of the 1.0 and 1.3uv kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1456298
Only the zimage/kernel is cm7 compatible, not the whole cyanmobile boot.img

Battery and Charging problems after xxufmb3

After installing XXUFMB3 I suddenly have problems which I never had before.
1. USB charging from PC is now on the fritz. i.e. It says it is charging but battery goes down at the rate of 1% per 4 minutes.
2. Charging with stock charger is next to impossible.
3. I can only charge with 2.1 amp chargers (those to tablets and ipads)
4. Battery life went down to 50%
I already changed the ROM and even bought new batteries and I still end up having these problems.
Please help me?
If you've already gone back to a stock ROM and tried other chargers then it sounds like a hardware fault inside the phone.
Original charger/lead known to be unreliable and faulty
can anyone point to me the latest stable stock ROM radio kernel and all?
You want me to Google that for you?

i'm on crdroid rom as of now.

It'll help you determine what's the charging current. Then through trial and error, you can determine where the problem lies.

Ok I'm on XXUFMB3 right now. Flashed it a couple of hours ago. Haven't tried charging yet. I'm on Omega ROM v44.2 4.2.1.
So Is it dangerous to continue using this ROM? Or does this issue get fixed after flahshing another rom?
Reply ASAP, XXUFMB3 might be slahghtering my phone's hardware right now!!

Battery sudden draining

Last couple of weeks, with different ROMs I have a strange issue where the screen suddenly starts to flicker in within seconds the
battery drains to being completely empty.
I don't even have a chance to get into BBS and check what process is the culprit.
Any idea what might be causing this problem?

Your ROM might be the issue.. Does this happens with all ROM or what? Which ROM are you using?

This happens on samsung based roms like Neatrom, Imperium & ARHD
also happens with CM11 OMNI and SLIM.
tested all these roms with full wipe and clean install.
Could it be a bad battery ?

First check if this happens with stock ROM not the stock based ones.. And if same happens with complete stock than yes it can be battery issue.
Your battery is inflated? If yes, I think that you need a new battery
