hi people
please check this 2 min video and you will come to know what i am trying to say and what help i need
Note : this video is raw not edited.
100% to 81% in just 2 min
i use :
1. ics final by jusada
2. lagfreev1
3. volume battery drain fix
i recently did battery calibration also both by software and cwm recovery wipe method. due tho this i have to remain under power or other way is to switch off and charge, but guys i can't switch off my device its always ringing and my business also.
Youtube video link as i don't know how to embed here :

Calibrate battery:
Turn phone off
Charge until 100% appears on the screen.
Turn off charger and remove battery
Put battery back in battery after at least 90 seconds.
Use CWM to boot into recovery
Go to advanced and delete Battery Stats
Reboot phone & DO NOT recharge
When the phone reaches 10% charge, put back on charge.
Remember all battery start to loose their charge if used constantly. Re chargable batteries become less effective over time.
Wy u disconnect the charger when it reaches 100%?? Its fake dude. Wait till the system reminds u in the notification that battery charged!!.. Some ROMs might hav removed that.. Seriously charge ur battery from 10% to 100% for 3 HRS...

It's not fake. I charged for six hours straight and have th same result as this guy. cooltt is correct: the effectiveness of rechargable batteries degrade over time.

Ok everyone calm down.
My original post about how to calibrate this battery is correct, i'm using ICS final no tweaks by Jusada and i get the 100% charged confirmation when i charge with phone switched off.
I know some custom roms don't have this feature but you can still charge to capacity with the phone on, when it reaches 100% turn the phone off and charge for a further 20 mins.
This battery takes 2hrs 42 mins to charge from dead but you should never allow it to die as it strains the internal structure of the battery.
The battery icon is not a true representation of the remaining charge until the phone has been used over a couple of days and charged up at least once, this is the way all rechargerble batteries work
ya actually if i charge with my device off i get full charge in 2:30 to 3 hours but when i switch on and charge then it charges from dead to 100 in just 1:30 hours so by this i know we are not getting full charge while on.
but guys this is bad we need to find some way out this is really not good that we have to switch off our devices as there can be some emergency also, never did in my nokia,blackberry.
by the way in some thread i read this trick so today i followed this and will post my result after 24 hours :
How to Calibrate your battery ; guide by Hiroshirou :
1. (phone on) charge to 100% until it actually says full in settings > about phone > status > battery status
2. unplug charger and turn off phone
3. (phone off) plug charger in until it charges to 100%
4. unplug charger and power it on
5. (phone on) plug the charger in and charge it to 100%
6. unplug charger and reboot phone to recovery (into cwm5)
7. go to advanced and clear battery stats.
8. turn on the the phone and charge it to 100% - DONE!

Alright. I once accidently put my speaker output into 3.5mm jack instead of speaker input in my last phone and my battery didn't use to last more than 30 minutes. Maybe you can try to swap batteries temporarily to check if it's a battery issue or phone/software issue! That will narrow it down.
its a software issue only as my battery is new i purchased 1 month ago.
Backup data and perform a fresh installation and calibrate again.
It this doesn't work, it's definitely a hardware issue.
P.s. age doesn't matter. A bad battery will go bad whenever it wants to. I will still suggest you to try swapping batteries first to narrow down the issue. Try krne mein kya jata hai?
oki i am on a test of a procedure that will complete in 24 hours after that i will try to use fresh installation right now i am busy in editing custom ROM for me so i guess have to wait for battery to got down till 10%.

Does Galaxy Ace shows a notification when battery is fully charged ? Yesterday I got a new Ace, I kept it for charging for around 3-4hrs.. The battery indicator shows the battery full, but notification on the homescreen(when its locked) showed its charging..
How am I suppose to understand its fully charged..?
Yes, normally a notification should appear when the battery is fully charged!
How much hours does it take to fully charge if the battery is around 5%?
The battery isn't fully charged until you don't get a notification (both sound and green icon on the top-left corner). That's even if you see the indicator showing 100%
Wow..my battery is still blue.. in the right hand corner.. How long does it takes to fully charge?
Depending on ROM / mods, your battery icon may look different. But a notification should show up after around 3 hours.

Well that depends, wether you're charging via USB or the wall-charger (I don't really know the name of that thing xD )
USB charging requires more time, I've tried and it took me about 4-5 hours to full charge the phone.
Tapatalked from my Noirette III
Ok..Last nite... I charged for 3-4 hrs.. but didnt get any notification..maybe I will try it today..Is it ok to leave it on charge over-nite? Maybe 6-7 hrs after a full deplete..?
Have you tried to reflash your ROM? There's maybe something wrong within the kernel.
And about charging overnight... I doubt that's a safe thing to do..
Used to charge my old phone overnight everytime and now it's battery depleted within 4 hours after a full charge.
Tapatalked from my Noirette III
well, certainly not on froyo. probably only ginger has it in-built-i get it on galaxy s (ginger) but not on Ace (froyo).
Hey!
You can charge it over night. And it shows notification in home screen CHARGED!
CHEERS!
@rhadrio I havent re flashed it..just got it yesterday.
I guess the battery nowadays have no -ve effect, if we over charge them.. ? Any one can confirm this?

Of course its NOT good, if you OVER CHARGE it every time. And for correcting battery stats, you need to calibrate it(you must be ROOTED, before use BATTERY CALIBRATOR[free from MARKET]). But still I suggest to use it(BATTERY CALIBRATOR) only if you get too fastley drain you battery(I mean, if you see that you battery getting worst or similar).
CHEERS!
I haven't rooted it yet. I will charge it overnite today & lets see if its works better tomorrow..
Batteries now have built-in overcharging prevention. No worries.

Well.. I kept it over nite.. In the morning I saw a notification on the phone as "Charged", but I am not sure how many hours did it take to charge it.
I dont know about battery issue aftr overnight charging.....but i used to charge my 5800 overnight daily, i used 2 and hlf years but nothing happend to batry or batry back up...
and if u charge yor ACE with AC charger it will take min 4 hours as our chargers are 0.7A
and if u charge with USB ur cell will get completly charged in half time compared to AC charger

...nope! usb is 500 mA (0.5 A) max - in best case, depending on mode etc. so AC charger is faster as it's 0.7 A. max 3-4 hrs here on ac.
Yea, as the title says.
is there a way to fix this ?
THANKS!
I would try re-calibrating your battery. Try this which is straight from my MIUI guide.... (I suggest method 2 as it is the easiest)....
RECONDITION YOUR BATTERY
AFTER FLASHING IF YOU FIND THAT YOU HAVE BAD BATTERY LIFE TRY ONE OF THE METHODS BELOW TO FIX:
Method One:
Use phone till it dies on its own, completely dead.
Charge phone completely, plus 30 minutes longer.
Unplug phone from charger
Reconnect, you'll notice it's not full, charge till it is again.
This is bump charging and NOT something you want to do often, a few times is okay, in my opinion. You could skip the bump charge if you like.
Phone remains plugged in.
Boot into recovery (volumes + power)
Advanced > wipe battery stats, reboot.
Use phone till it's literally about to shut off (or does) Charge till full + Use phone like normal
OR
Method Two:
Download the Battery Calibration app by NeMa from the Android Market
Click to expand...
Click to collapse
Tell me if this works for you...
A real battery capped to charge at 96% or 97% due to voltage issues that would occur if charged to complete 100%. But samsungs stock ROMS and most other ROMS are customized to display this 100% when its really not at that level. Since MIUI is based off of CM7(and this is uncredited of course), it is not modified in any way and it displays the actual battery life. Which in your case is 96%. Hope this helps.

Hopefully I can state this in a way that doesn't scream "I don't know how to use teh search!"
I calibrated my battery stats using the free app on the market after flashing darkside. My phone used to charge to 100% on the indicator (4200+ mV). Now, a couple of weeks later, it charges to the same 4200-and-up charge but the meter tops out at 92%. Two days ago, it was topping out at 94%.
I've re-calibrated using the app, draining it down and charging fully up. Same result, 92% max.
I've wiped battery stats using CWM immediately after charging fully (verifying the charge is above 4200 mV). Rebooted. Still at 92%. Actually, now it's reporting 90% with 4128 mV.
so if wiping stats is a "useless operation", what gives? How is it possible that this method apparently fixed other users' miscalibrated battery meters stuck down around 30-40%?
Try this:
1. Charge as much as it will charge
2. Turn it off and take out the battery
3. While the battery is still out, plug it in and wait for it to show the battery image with the question mark
4. Put the battery back in (do not turn on yet) and let it charge for an hour
5. After an hour, turn it on, unplug, and report back
Note: On step #4 when you put the battery back in it will probably only show like 5% or 10%, just ignore that and let it charge

in cm7, charges to 98% normally, but sometimes takes hours to reach 100%.
I hope i'm not hijacking this thread, but since we are talking about mV i thought this might be a good place to ask....
I've been having problems with my battery levels for a while, i've tried all the voodoo to try and fix it but i can't get anything consistent.
here is what i get....
i have battery calibration app installed, sometimes it will read 4200mV and be 20% charged. Other times it will read 100% charged at 3700mV, it's all over the place, and trying all the suggestions to fix the battery life don't seem to fix it.
another thing i have is it will discharge from 100% to 5% within an hour but my mV will be at 3900+, then it will sit at 5% for another 8+ hours then the phone shuts off, so i plug it in and it says 5%, i let it charge for a minute or two and it's at 20%, i turn it on and it shows that it's above 3700 or 3800mV.
so the phone thinks it needs 3700+ mV to run, but not always, sometimes it will go down below 3600mV and still run
A couple questions
1. can someone post their mV reading at 5%, i'm guessing it should be about 3300
2. what is the max mV that you have....is it above 4200mV (mine never is)
FYI information i've tried fastboot -w, cwm battery wipe, deleting the battery stats file manually, even formatted /system and other file systems to make sure it was fresh

Ok,
I did this and my battery starts off at 100% and all appears to be fine. The next time I charge, it only shows 83% and it is reading 4200mV which should be a full charge. Do I have to do this each time? Is there any other solution? I am running CM7 stable and the battery is an aftermarket one. Could this be the issue? Thanks in advance all.

One trick I've found is unplugging the micro-USB and plugging it back in immediately. When I do this the 4200mV usually drops to the low 4100 range and the % continues to increase.
Only caveat is you'll have to keep doing this until it reaches 100. It takes a while since it seems to get re-stuck at every 1-2% intereval. A pain, but it's a work around from having to pull the battery. :silly:
I have the same issue too but DO I ALWAYS HAVE TO DO THIS METHODS? My battery level drops day by day (becomes %92 max) from %100.
I'd had the issues you explain for AGES.
I'd heard that buying a new battery wouldn't help. But I bought a new, official battery off eBay and I've not had the issue since. That was a couple of months ago now... not saying it will definitely work but at worst you have a spare battery...
What works for me... Charge up as much as possible, then use root explorer and go to data/battd/ and delete everything except the file "uid" then reboot... Should be good to go...
Hope this helps!

This definitely worked for me. I was having repeated issues that full charge/drain calibrations didn't fix. This did.
I had the same issues with charging it ,but i foudn out that the only failproof method of chargin it by using the oem ac adapter and the oem usb cable if you dont have the cable the nokia cables shoud do the trick but the samsung one does not work i dnno exactly why but i tested it myself.

If I keep my phone on charging even after its on 100%, it starts rolling back. As in from 100 to 99 then 98, even if its pluggen in.
Don't know what kind of a problem this is, hardware or software.
Or there's some issue with the battery.

Maybe You have some program that syncs something all the time. Did You try to turn off data and wifi. You can always check it if the reason is the hardware or Software. Just make a backup of Your whole ROM, delete the data and leave the phone over night. I hope it is only software problem.
EDIT: Does Your battery go hot while charging? Oh, and try to wipe battery stats

The x10 charges the battery to full then if still plugged in it will stop charging until batt drains to set level ,then will charge to full again and over and over all night. X10 wont over charge batt when left plugged in. Kernel/bootloader handle this. There is an app current widget that can log charge levels.
EDIT: I had a tip on charging here but removed it after further research read more about batt here..

EDIT: the best tip I usr for battery life is, let batt runout until phone shuts off, then pull batt, then plug in charger, then replace batt into phone, then phone will boot, enter xrecovery on first boot and wipe batt stats. After wipe while still in xrec pull batt then unplug. Now plug in phone then insert batt. Phone should boot in charge mode( big batt icon only on screen) dont start phone untill light green for 1-2 hours to get full charge . I do this about once a month, when phone starts to shut off around 15%

As mentioned above as well, this is normal. After charging to 100%, the phone stops battery charging, and will activate charging again only when battery falls a bit (say 97%). Also, battery heating while on charging (and also when using the phone continuously while playing a game) is normal. Relax.. your phone is fine
@ToledoJab
I am having the same issue with battery... phone switching off at 15%, even at 22-23%, when playing a game or something. But switching it back on, and leaving it idle, phone might run for another 2 hours. So it is the extra load while running a game that the phone cant take any longer (i remember getting the 15%,10% and 5% reminders earlier while playing games)...? Does the battery calibrate method actually help in your case? does it go all the way down to 0% or 1% before shutting down.. ?
I just did this after posting that. And yes my phone reported warnings @ 25% 15 10 5 and then shutdown @ 1%.
This way is like reconditioning an old rechargeable ni-cad batt.
All this does is completey drain batt then, with least amount of drainage (phone on, apps& radios running) allows battery to full charge.
There is also a way called recalibrate battery. But this way over charges the batt.
EDIT: I think the phone load will effect reported batt left. I think batt gage use average loads to estimate remaining power. Meaning games, full brightness of LCD, radios -3g -GPS -WiFi -Bluetooth will use more than avg power
edit 2: I found this thread also has some very good points and links. after reading this i will not intentionally take my batt to 0%. I hit 0% about 1-2 times a month on accident as it is. i will just make sure when i do go 0% to wipe stats (dont know if it helps or not) then preform a long (overnight) full charge with phone off.

First and foremost...lets get this out of the way..if u want more battery life..get a newer more powerful battery...thats the best option..
But if you still wanna stick with your current battery and still want improvements..here is a little something i want to tell you..
Obviously you might have searched about how to improve and come across the method known as calibration.. this is the method as described by one of our members..
nickrule1896 said:
Steps:
1. Before flashing a new rom, use root explorer (with read/write set) to delete the file "batterystats.bin" stored in /data/system/.
2. Charge your phone with it being turned off.
3. After it is fully charged(100%), take out its battery without plugging off the power supply.
4. Wait for a few moments, and a ? sign will appear.
5. Put your battery back in. You should see that the battery percentage increases quickly to 60%. If it increases to 100% with seconds, please skip to step 6.
6. If it stops increasing at 60%, let the phone continue to charge until 100%(takes quite a while)
7. Once it reaches 100%, let it charge for a further 15-20 minutes.
8. Once that's done, you can boot to OpenRecovery and flash your rom!!!

https://plus.google.com/u/0/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT
As is mentioned.. "It has no impact on your battery life" !!!
So...BATTERY CALIBRATION IS JUST A MYTH!!! Still...if you dont believe me..continue following your stupid practices..
Coming onto bump charging...
When your phone shows u fully charged it is actually charged only till 90-95% and thus u may experience a sudden decrease in battery %age after u unplug the charger...
The method for bump charging as you ardent ritualists may already know is as follows..
" Phone on, charge to full
Shut Phone off, charge to full
Phone back on, charge to full, use like normal. "
The main disadvantage of this is that it increases your battery voltage...Also in some case of sudden overvoltage while charging this can damage your battery...what for? 5% increase...
also..all that extra heat is bad for the lithium batteries...
Therefore 95% battery is good enough for daily use
so..if you really want to improve battery life...dump all these methods and just buy a more powerful battery and give it a month to give you proper results..all new batteries require at most a month to work to their full potential...
P.S. : come to think of buying a new battery...this idea may be very helpful to you if you do happen to own a Galaxy NOTE..

Cheers and Peace to all..
The fact that the Galaxy Ace cannot work without the battery already proves the first battery calibration invalid for most .
Also , all we knew was to erase batterystats.bin and charge to full , that's it

If this is all a myth, and I'm none the wiser, why is my battery percentage all over the place? For example, went on a hike listening to music etc. Ran the battery out. Got home, plugged into charger, turned on and it said I had 46% though when I first plugged it (while off) the battery symbol showed obviously barely anything.

Android is very....insensitive when it comes to battery .
Android keeps track of the battery using a permanently running Battery Service , which polls at a certaon interval....
For our phone , deep sleep will affect battery polling and thus your battery will be displayed as being larger than it really is .

Heyy guys I have a problem regarding the battery life on my fone
On any rom be it cm7 cm9 or cm10 whenever i charge my fone to say for eg. 65-70% and unplug the charger battery starts draining quickly until it reaches a particular point like (45-50%) then the drain becomes somewhat stable
However when i charge the phone fully (ie.100%) the battery depreciates economically (like on stock)
This means I have to charge the battery full in order to prevent for drain
What should i do to prevent this from happening? Or should I buy a new battery
Any Help Appreciated
In my experience with any lithium battery not just android increase battery life by let it die fully so it wont turn on at all then charge till 100% and no harm done by leaving an extra 20 mins leave charger in while turning on should vastly improve an older battery

I am afraid you're wrong in letting old batteries to drain completely man...when battery is new like say within 150 cycles what you said is true but as it becomes old it's better to charge it when it goes below 15...coz the chemicals will become inactive and won't be efficient in taking up charge

All I know about Li-ion batteries is that when I dismantle them the real lithium strip inside reacts with the air and decomposes :/
I give up writing anymore signatures.

What about Die Hard Battery Caliberator? Got me rid of bump charging.
