I've had my ATRIX for about a month now and I haven't seen this yet. I'm rooted and unlocked running CherryPi v0.5a. My issue is the battery is showing 95% but the phone says it is fully charged. I'm guessing this is just an issue with the ROM itself but I'm not certain. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
It has been said elsewhere that this is just a battery calibration issue. Try wiping your battery stats in CWM after a full night's charge. Let us (namely the people in the Cherry thread) how it goes. Don't forget the thanks button

You need to try recalibrating your battery as per instructions i posted here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1198333
I followed the calibrating tutorial and at 95% battery the calibrator is reading 4200mV. I haven't finished all the steps yet. I will +1 both of you when I can on my computer or when I find out how using the XDA app.

4200 mv is full charge, so you battery is not the problem.
If you leave it on charging once it says "phone charged" it will eventually get to a 100%, though it's not nessecary.
The battery meter isn't 100% accurate:

Alright thanks for your help. I let it sit for awhile and it says its 100% charged and the voltage is 4203mV.

I just uploaded a new rom and a kernel, and now I am having problems with my phone holding a charge. Anyone got any suggestions as to what I should do.

You know I never really got what the term "charge cycle " is, what os it? Is it when you recondition turn battery 3 times or what?
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA App
Go into recovery mode and in the menu there is an advanced go in then and wipe stats or you can get an app that does the same thing. Either do that. Then, drain the battery 'til dead (run a movie). Then fully charge That is a complete charge cycle. That will recondition it that is all you really need. Then also maybe get a task manager or something similar to be able and check and make sure there are not things running in the background check.
If the battery then is not holding a charge after this then..maybe the battery needs replacing
Charge cycle is from charged to dead to charged.

Hey thanks you all for responding to my thread. I have now just discovered that the phone will not even power up or hold a charge at all. I am thinking its the battery because the bionix rom and the kernal were still working before the phone shutdown. Any thoughts on this new development??
I have a weird issue with my battery ..my phone will charge up to 100% but as soon as I unplug it...it takes less than 10 minutes for it to go down to 85%. Then it seems that the battery starts working normally after that...my phone is not rooted.
Any ideas or solutions?
Thanks in advance..

If you want help I suggest you provide more information. ie what rom you are running, how long you've had the phone, etc. If it is a brand new phone your battery may just need to be conditioned. Charge it to full, use it to empty, charge to full again and you should be good to go.

Its odd that a new stock phone doesn't run the battery well. in any case, the battery may not be calibrated yet. you can run this program. it will set the calibrate your battery for you. Let your phone drain down to under 15% before you recharge again. And let it fully recharge to 100%, then run it down thru the day to under 15%. After a few cycles like this, the battery will normalize. Then you will get a better idea of the battery life of your phone.

Gonna keep it short, got an extended battery, charges too 100%, calibrated it, did two charge cycles, battery still dies like a ton of bricks and does the dreaded sit at 1% for hours, now I've charged it via charging cable and external battery dock and still get the same results, any suggestions or solutions??

i wasn't trying to be, sorry if it came off that way, but people are so quick to just post a link here it's ridiculous, i've done my own research on the topic and came to that posting many a time, so i figured i'd ask for a second opinion
My seidio battery did the same thing, and using the framework apk from one of the threads on here didn't work either.

This is what has worked for me every time no matter if stock rooted or any other custom rom..... and I do this switching back and fourth between extended and stock battery..... you must be rooted.... atleast i was.
get the battery monitor widget from the market. In the setting you can change the ma rating of the battery you are using. Once you have done that click on stats in the app and it'll clear battery stats. Reboot phone go into app and clear stats again. That should be it. When I had clokworkmod installed on the reboot id clear battery stats in there as well.
This has worked for me time and time again.

I believe it's in the app he mentions. The "wipe battery stats" option is also in the advanced menu of CWM (clockwork mod). If you do not have a custom recovery installed just disregard that part as bootstrap does not have it.

Hi.
I used Battery Calibration from google play exactly as instructed. Since then, my battery is charging REALLY slow, or not at all. When I use my fully charged galaxy after its charged overnight(connected to a charger) it shows 100%, and when I disconnect it, the battery drops... To lets say 92%. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance.

Charge it till you're sure it's 100%, turn off your phone, take out the battery for a minute, put it back in and turn your phone back on.

It's not possible to 'calibrate' an SGS2 battery.
Do what Donnie suggested, and if that doesn't help, flash a kernel like Siyah which enables you to reset the fuel gauge from ExTweaks/similar app (you can do it from command line as well, if you search the Siyah discussion thread you'll probably find the exact commands).
If neither of those things work, your battery is on the way out. Buy a new one.
My battery (original) drains even wen the phone is off. First i tought that my battery was broken. I bought a new accu (original) but i got the same results. After about 8 hours ive got 15% less juice and the phone was off. What could this be?
