I was installing zeam launcher and my phone froze, so I rebooted my phone and my battery was at 60 percent but when I started it up I only have 26 percent. What should I do,I tried piling the battery but it stills show 26 percent.

That's weird. I have had that exact same problem two other times on two different roms. I continued using the phone heavily throughout the rest of the day and the battery dropped to about 15% and stayed there for a couple of hours of use, then began dropping again normally afterwards. After draining all the way and recharging, everything was normal again.
On a side note, I switch batteries a lot and charge on external chargers.
Yeah its really weird. I had this same problem on the infuse but with that phone all I had to do was restart the phone...

Did you flash a new rom? Maybe try a battery calibration? Hopfuly nothing is wrong with the battery itself.
Are you rootd? Did u try wiping battery stats in cwm?
It's been found wiping battery stats usually causes battery read issues. Best to leave alone.

For the past four or five days my Thunderbolt has been charging at an incredibly slow pace. For example, I've had the phone on the charger for 13 hours now and i've gone from 40% to 91%. I have the extended battery, but it usually only takes about 3-4 hours to charge from zero to 100%.
I recently put the new gingeritis ROM on the phone. It charged fine the first couple times after that but then I started having this problem. Is it the ROM, the battery, or the phone?
Has anyone else had this issue?

I would say search but......
It's known. Reboot while on the charger.

Tried multiple reboots on charger. I did a bunch of searches but didn't find anything Thunderbolt specific and non concrete answers on what causes this.

I have been told it is to do with the kernal. Was told to charge full and while still on the charger go in the toolkit and refresh battery stats and then reboot. I just did it this morning so I have no idea if it will help but this is what I was told to do.
I have been on Gingeritis 1.0 with the 2.5 radio for a week now, and the past 3 days have been seeing the same thing. Charging takes several hours with the standard battery now. Last night I put it on at 3:30PM, at 40% on a standard battery. At 9:00pm, it was at 94% and still charging.
It was faster charging last week. Going to try a battery wipe.
Thanks for the responses. I'm still at 91%, but I'll try to wipe the battery stats when it finally gets to 100%.
Maybe I'm missing something, but gingeritis doesn't have a toolkit like BAMF, right? I'll have to do it through CM.
Thanks again.

My mistake, I assumed you were on bamf. I think you can still do this by going into your normal phone settings with your battery info. That I'm not 100% sure on though
Download Battery Calibration NeMa from market, it wipes stats without going into recovery

OK. So I tried wiping the battery stats. My phone got to 99% charged and stuck there for an hour so I restarted into CM and wiped the battery stats.... Still slow charging. So the next day I let it sit on the charger for 20 hours until it finally got to 100% and I wiped the battery stats again. Still not fixed. Just took the phone off a 7 hour charge and it went from 24% to 68%.
I'm wondering if it's the ROM I'm using (gingeritis 1.0). I'm going to charge this thing up again all day today and then flash a new ROM. I hate doing that since it takes some much time to set up my phone after a wipe, so if anyone has any other suggestions I'm ready to hear them.
Let's trubleshoot this. Anyone else who is having the same problem post your ROM and if you're using the extended battery. I'm on gingeritis 1.0 using the extended battery.
Try an updated Kernal.
The latest Imoseyon are supposed to fix the slow charging.
Have you tried bump charging? Let battery drop to 5% then put on charger. Once 100%, unplug and turn phone off and put back on charger whole it is off.
Updated the kernel and put it back on the charger. I've gained 25% in the last hour which is back to normal. Thanks!

As stated previously you should update the kernel. The newest IMO fixed it for me.

Restart then charge or get the new isoman kernel.
So I was originally on wolfs 7.1 with stock kernal when my problem started. The battery is constantly sitting around 50 - 52 degrees, I lose around 1% every 2 minutes until empty, if I have it on the charger while I'm using it, it actually discharges faster than the charger can charge it right till empty. Also even though I can leave it on charge overnight I never get more than half a charge. I have tried a seus repair thinking it may have been a kernal or rom issue, and now I'm on free x10 with zkernal no change on Any rom I try. I have also tried wiping the battery stats and cycling the battery. Which makes it hard since I can never reach a full charge.
I'm thinking my battery is pooched. Any thoughts?

I think to be sure about it you should flash the stock 2.1 rom and try it out.

No matter what I do, my battery won't report as 100% the highest it got was 49% but battery callibration reported 4200mv. I tried callibrating and wiping battery stats and nothing worked.

Same problem but at least mine gets up to 67%. MV drops the moment it's unplugged though.
I've also tried shutting down, pulling battery, waiting until "?", then popping it back in. Only seems to fix it once.
Thoughts? Does the V6 hardcore battery calibration fix this?
If it's any help to you, this is common issue. I have 3 Atrix's and they all charged and drained normally out of the box. This might be due to the 10% increments? I'm not sure exactly what step caused it, because I've flashed multiple ROM's on all three and various theme's, hacks, etc. Eventually they all stopped getting to 100%. They all will get to 4200mv and battery usage doesn't seem to be affected, but they all top out between 75%-95%.
I've tried all the calibrations methods mentioned on xda numerous times, and all devices. None of them worked past a single charge and then back to % inaccuracies.
Just something I've had to learn to ignore. If you do come across a working solution, I'm sure a lot of people would love to hear it.

My atrix has been on 1% for the last like 7 hours. So something is going on behind the scenes.

Wow, that's even worse than mine. I can routinely get 1-2 hours on 1%, but that's it.
I just got a Samsung Battery Charger/Stand with Battery & have just charged the new battery with it, swapped it for the old one that had just run out when I noticed something weird...
The new battery was showing up as 100% for about 15 minutes. During which time I had the screen on for 3 minutes at full brightness.
What does that mean??
I've never seen 100% for any more than a second after I've unplugged the phone.
I'm assuming there's some difference between the batteries and the stats that are in the phone for the battery. I've used the Battery Calibration app before, when changing roms on my old phone, and that would sort out little anomalies. Do I need to use battery calibration every time I switch batteries?
Will this work itself out?
Will this swapping negatively affect my phone in anyway?
I thank you in advance for your help/suggestions
The phone has logic to not let the battery charge to 100% for too long. The charger does not. Battery calibration apps do nothing.

So... the charger over charged the battery?
Will that damage it?

I posted the same thing in the morning on another thread. Great mind think alike! Haha
Well to me it doesn't mean anything wrong really. Just that the phone doesn't fully charge the battery for safety or maybe heat reasons. Who knows? If samsung desktop charger is approved by samsung its good enough to me.

Guess your right.
So yours was saying 100% for unusually long as well?

It did on my new one for about 5min. Only but I had wifi on and screen and doing some work. It Wasatch new battery and didn't think much of it. I would say that even that was way more than the immediate 99% once off the charger on the phone

Just read your earlier post. Seems strange that the external charger charges more than the phone. I guess I can't complain about a few extra minutes!

One of my usual days with the battery charged up in the morning on he desktop charger, and I'm now 8 almost and have 72% when previously I was getting about 60% around this time

Hi lately after rebooting my phone the battery will drain either between 3-50%. It shouldnt matter but i charge via external charger since port is broken. This is not just battery issue though as my wide has same phone and if she takes mine it doesnt seem to happen yet if i take hers it does. Any ideas as to what the heck is up would be nice
I have similar issue, it will say 70%-90% and then do a random restart and say 1% connect your charger, and sometimes it will reboot and be back up again, I tried flashing a different ROM but the problems carried over

This problem is getting out of hand, the Note will work all day plugged in, and say fully charged, but unplug it and 2 minutes later it restarts and says 1%!?? What gives?
Sent from my SGH-I897 using Tapatalk
I had this problem for a while too. I then downloaded a battery calibration app off the Play Store, and that did the trick. If not, perhaps try to replace the battery and see if it has the same results?
In recovery mode you can wipe your battery stats, then full charge.
I could not find the battery stats in recovery
