I'm running pre-rooted GB and I sometimes notice that the battery icon shows charging when I unplugged it. And what's weird is that as the battery drains, the icons shows its charging from a lower and lower level. So if I wait to see when its at its lowest, I know how much battery it has Haha
Any body know how to fix it?

I'd like to know if there's a fix to this as well. Mine actually drains the battery super fast when this happens.
hi every body,
I just want to know if there is a program for my android based xperia play that can disable charging the battery during charging.... WHY? because I really using my phone for most of my activity such as downloading large size files like games and movies through wifi, so I dont want to shorten my battery life by leaving the phone charging but I want it to work directly from the charger.
and if this was'nt possible, do you think it is a good feature that can be included in future mobiles by putting small secondary battery for that purpose?
thank you and sorry for long "story" : )

It is not possible because it is not necessary. Lithium Ion batteries do not lose life by constantly charging. You can keep it on the charger 24/7 and your battery won't last any less than the next guy.
Thank you for your answer. I really read about this, but what about battery tempreture? is it increased during long time charging? because as I read, the over heating is the enemy of lithium battery.
what do you think?
Modern li-ion batteries actually have circuitry to prevent bad things happening during charging. Even if your phone indicates charging, the individual cells in the battery may or may not be charging to prevent overcharging.
Your battery should only heat up during the charging cycle when it is genuinely discharged.

Yes, this is what I mean because at the time I charging my battery, I make a download by wifi, so it is disharging and this is the problem that let me to aske for disabling charging during charging. : )
I'm curious, since my new Note has been inhaling battery life... Has been since I got it and there were only the basic apps. I can't even charge it up while using it (the indicator declines even on wall power if I'm browsing or sketching with the screen on one tick from lowest brightness).
Anyway, I have Juice Defender and Battery Widget 1x1... Was thinking of adding Badass Battery Monitor but wonder if these running apps cause harm as well as help?
Just got the tablet. When charging, only the bottom right quarter/side of tablet heats up. Everywhere else is cool to the touch. Is that how it is for you guys too?
Thanks
Fast charging can cause the battery to get a bit hot. It warns about it on the advanced battery settings screen where you can switch between fast and normal charging
So mine phone was draining battery fast as expected with a few years old device and battery wear. I took it to a repair shop and had a new battery installed.
Now the phone has been draining just as fast as the old battery which caused me concern as I should have seen some noticeable improvement.
Well it turns out when my phone gets to 5 percent the screen will dim which is the norm. HOWEVER I can move the brightness slider back up and my phone will go to 1% and just stay there.
I am able to play Youtube videos at full brightness while sitting at 1% battery for almost 2 hours straight before the phone finally dies and shuts off.
Is there a special way to recalibrate this battery as im guessing something is waaaaay off with the calibration?
"Stock - non rooted phone"
You just have to recalliberate your battery percentage
