Download the battery calibration app from the market. Follow the instructions in the app and it should be fine.

tried that but cant get the battery to 100% to run it

my phone never get more than 91% battery charge

need help with this problen
flash into xrecovery and wipe battery stats!
Also, calibrate your battery. Fully charge, remove battery, reinstall battery, fully charge again. Repeat 2-3 times until says 100%.
Stock charges to around 88%.

My battery is also causing trouble
I put the phone in charger is loading the phone up to 88 then stops
And when I take out and put in the charger my phone charges up to 100
While the charger still connected is again removed the battery to 88
I have to use the directory that you brought?
Sorry for my english lol
Yeah calibrating your battery almost always will help. Check the market if you haven't yet. There are a couple Apps that will help do it.

Ok thnx
dont use your phone while in charge and then see the status of ur battery.. if u use ur phone while charging, it never charges up fully..
Pls hit a thanks if u r satisfied
I experience this when I leave my X10 charging all night long (turned on). It seems it charges up to 100% and then keeps draining it, despite the connected charger. Have you ever tried offline charging?
I want to charge it when it is turned off. But I do not know if he filled it to the end. Because I do not know what percentage has
That there is no sign of a fully charged battery

[Q] Atrix wont charge fully please help!

Hi everyone,
Im running cherryblur 1.4d obviously rooted and unlocked. I've been running it like this for over a month now and its been great but a week ago my phone stopped charging up to 100% when I let it charge overnight. It reaches 90% and stops. I have a charger that charges the phone and an extra battery at the same time and it has worked great since I got it and the only way to get the batteries to go to 100 is to take the batteries out of the phone and put 5hem to charge in the battery slot. Please help me guys. Its not the battery because I have another battery and it won't charge fully either. I'm going crazy with this I've looked everywhere and haven't found anything
Charge your phone to its fullest capacity (I guess that would be ~90 for you)
Wipe battery stats in recovery, reboot.
Let the battery drain completely, until the atrix shuts off. Watch a bunch of videos or something.
Recharge back to full capacity, hopefully 100%

You might also want to try charging the battery with the phone switched off, when it reaches 100% remove the battery and wait for the no battery icon to appear on the screen. Then re-insert the battery and leave to charge for another hour or so.
After doing this, boot into CWM and clear the battery stats. This should fix your problem.

Mine won't charge to full unless I'm using the charger that came with it, ALL other chargers stop at 95-98%.
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Make sure the other chargers are kicking out at least 700ma the moto charger kicks out 850ma.
Any less than 700ma and you'll not get a full charge, a lot of 3rd party chargers only 500ma which will not work too well.

^ This. Most people don't realize that they can't use just any charger with some phones, this phone being one of them. It requires a certain amount of juice running through it to charge properly, which is why if it's dead it won't charge from a USB port.

Thank you guys I'm in the process of trying the first suggestion I'll see if it charges fully tonight
Also if you are swapping batteries, the battery stats will continuously get messed up. It will be trying to configure the two as one and that could make this a reoccurring problem for you
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
Oh that could be it as well because the second battery I got drains quickly (or it shows that way) and spends the other half of the battery life (8~10hrs) at 1%
Ok guys turning it off and charging fully and then unplugging and plugging again, and wiping battery stats after worked perfectly. Thank you!
For anyone who has this problem you can wipe battery stats with the battery calibrator program or in CWM and then you must drain the battery after wiping the stats.

Battery drain issue

After flashing darkyrom, I messed up my battery stats (I think) by calibrating it everytime I fully charged my phne. I know I what I did is stupid not reading infos about it. But just to ask, if flashing to stock firmware will fix the battery drain. Everytime i full charge to 100% and rebooted the phone, I get 22% and figured that android OS is consuming 75% of my battery. I'm pretty hesistant flashing it because of battery drain that might turn off the phone during flashing. It has no warrant already so I cannot bring it to samsung. So is it safe to flash the phone?
Just plug your phone in your computer or wall to make sure the battery doesn't die.
Drain batt completly and then charge via pc usb untill full, unplug drain and charge via pc usb again. Pc usb has 500 miliamps, so will charge slower but will have a more full charge.

But i will have to flash it via odin so i cant charge it while flashing.
Your right, your phone doesnt charge while in recovery or while flashing. If you have clock work mod recovery then charge your phone via pc to full, then reboot to clockwork and select wipe battery stats. Reboot your phone and use untill it is 10% then do a pc charge untill full. No need to flash now, try my way first.

Will this get rid off the high android OS/cpu usage? I want to flash it to stock ICS btw.
I think so, i dont think it is your android taking all the power, I dont know much about android and kernels and stuff, but i know allot about batteries since i am an rc driver and flyer. Your ac charger has to much current so the phone reads top voltage for a few minuts and assumes that the battery is full, when in actual fact only about 400 miliamps went into the battery and the battery capacity is around 1500 miliamp. Now if you charge at lower amp level the voltage wont go to the top right away. You should be able to get a full charge after about 4 charging sessions. I would not suggest trying to flash now with your weak battery.

I messed up with the battery calibrator I calibrate everytime i fully charged my phone so maybe this is the cause. I will try your suggestion and see if it works. Thank you for your help.
The battety calibration tool is supposed to wipe your battery stats like clockwork does, maybe the app has some issue and is not wiping the stats completely. Use clockwork recovery to wipe the stats once the battery is fully charged. Then again only when you flash a new rom or put new battery.

And one more thing I noticed, the phone gets full charge so quick. Like for 30mns, it's 100% already. When before, the phone gets fully charged for like 2-3hrs.

It sometimes happens.. Did u charge from <20% or greater than that?? Becoz sometimes the battery shows fake stats.. The best way to calibrate is LEAVE the battery to calibrate itself for a week times. It needs a cycles of charge and discharge to get the correct value..
And the battery usage is not changing already. Been 4d 36mns 24 secs for a week. I wanna flash a stock rom but afraid battery will drain during flashing. *sigh*
Get a wall charger to charge the battery, check that the battery is not damaged ................................ . regards
It may be possible that you have a dead cell. Charge the bat to full, remove bat and use multimeter to test the bat, should read about 4volts. Leave the battery one side for about 1.5 hours, then test the voltage again. If less then 3.7 then you have a dead cell and will have to get new battery.

What multimeter? Got no idea what it is. Is that an app?
No its not an app. Its a tester that an electician would use to test voltage. Go to android market and download Battery info. That is an app that will also tell the voltage. Currently my bat is at 62% and 3.8volts. Download the app and let me know what the reading are.

What about this part 'leave the battery one side for 1.5h' you mean detach the battery of phone for 1.5? And what if I got 4below volts, that means my battery is okay and its the battery stats messing up?
Find an electrical tester, most car parts shops have the cheap ons (they do the job)
Full charge battery and remove battery from phone. On the battery there should be 3 copperplates, find the two with + and -. Test voltage on these points with tester set to dc volts. Leave your battery out of the phone for 60minuts and then test again. Let me know what the results are.
Sent from my Sensation Z710e
Fully charged battery should be 4volts for about 30 minuts and then start dropping to about 3.7. If less then 3.7volts your battery is faulty. Any voltage between 3.7 and 4.0 volts after one hour is 100% fine.

To tell you the truth, the galaxy s2 is my friend's s phone so as soon as i get it, i will test it. But now, i'm using galaxy s but I think i have a faulty battery. I will try what you said and it helped me a lot so thank you!

HTC Evo 3D Battery problems

Hello. I've been charging my phone the whole night and it only got to 94%. After I restarted the phone, the battery was at 81%. Does anyone knows what's wrong? Thanks.

A little more info would be nice. What rom are you using? Do you have root permissions? Are you s-off?
The first solution is:
On OVO 3D sometime if battery is charged to 100% he starts to use battery power instead of charger so if the light is green you need just to connect the charger again and it will start to charge again.
And the second:
After you installed some kind of ROM you need to calibrate the battery again. You can do by discharging your phone to 3-5% and then charge it to the full. You need to repeat this process few time and then you have calibrated battery.
Sorry but i forget to say that before recharging you need to delete old Battery stats

The first thing is correct. When the phone is fully charged the charging stops and the phone uses power from the battery.
As for your second statement - you are partly right. Even though most developers say the same thing you said I found the battery calibration is the best way to get the most from your battery. I tried everything that developers suggested and it didn´t work so well. Battery calibration did the trick - now my battery life is great
Anker batteries seem to work the best
Hey. Thanks for the replies. I'm using the 4EXT recovery and KingCobra3D - ICS 1.6 ROM. The thing is that my phone doesn't even charge up to 100%. Is it necessary to discharge the phone to 1-5% and then charge it to full and then calibrate via recovery or can I just calibrate the battery without having to discharge it first?
Also, I have root on my phone and S-ON.
My anker battery has reported like 4000 charge since I got it and I tried using the calibrate app but it still reports the same after a few cycles? It should be reporting 1900.

If you don´t use battery calibration you should go into recovery and wipe battery stats. Then boot up and fully charge the phone and let it discharge to 5-15%. Charge it to full and that should be it.
If you use battery calibration just charge to full, enter calibration app, hit calibrate and that is it

Okay the phone charged up to 100% but it took ages. I've downloaded the Battery Calibration app from the Market and hopefully everything's gonna be well now.
I have battery life issue too. I will try battery calibration.

New Battery doesn't charg to 100%

Hey, i bought a new battery for my desire x, but it doesn't charg to 100%. Sometimes it charges to 72% sometimes to 92% but i never got more then 92%. I tried to fully discharge the battery and charge it turned off, but the same. After 10h charging it stucked on 92%. Has anyone an idea to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance!
It may be fully charged, but your system may see it only as partially charged... for these issue there are apps called battery calibrators. You can download them from store and calibrate battery and everything should run fine from then on
