battery charge stops at 99 percent? - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Anyone else experiencing this? I'm charging my phone via wall adapter and that it stays at 99 percent and the led never turns green.

That last percent of charge from 99 to 100 seems to take a lot longer for my phone than any other 1 percent of charge but it eventually does get to 100%.

Ditto, that. The last 1% does seem to take a while.

A reset helped for me. Just rebooted the phone.

It's likely calibrating the battery. It should stop after a few power cycles.

Too bad it doesn't take as long to use up that first 1%. I was hoping to be at 100% for a while when going uplugged.

First time I charged it took a few hours to get to 100%. Since then it doesn't take as long but it's still quite a while. Let it sit, it'll eventually get to 100

i have the same reply as everybody else that last 1% does seem to take significantly longer. not to worry this seems to be the norm

Battery charge rate?

So I just received my x2 and immediately started charging. Been plugged in for 4 hours now and has moved from 70 to 90. Is this normal? My incredible charges a % a minute

I Plug Mine In At 10% 2 Hours Can Go By It Still Has 10%, Unplug It And Plug It Back In Now It Say Like 80-90%.
First charges can take longer, if it's still that slow a week later you might have a problem.

Thanks for input guys
It might be useful to know that the current Droid X2 operating system is crap for battery display. It only updates by the 10%, and while charging, it doesn't update at all. You need to unplug it every time you want the battery percentage to update. Hopefully Gingerbread fixes this.
Mine goes to full on it's own. So no problems here.

That's a known bug, don't worry it should be fixed in a software update.

ditto (most the time.)
I had an Incredible also, and overall the X2 charges a little slower, and its not just the larger battery. But can't complain about the charge speed really.
45 mins at the most

Charging problem while on charger

I just bought this phone and I don't know if its because its brand new or what but it doesn't charge completely.
It will charge up to 100% but then the percentage will decrease and the green light that let's you know its fully charged stays on yet the percentage lowers drastically and this is while its still on the charger plugged in and everything.
Does anyone else have this problem or experienced this?

That's the circuit kicking in to prevent overcharging of the battery. It's normal.

Will it get better over time because Ive had plenty of android phones and this is the only one that loses its charge while still on the charger.

Yes it is like this on all EVO 3D as well as the EVO 4G. I'm not sure if it like that with only HTC phones or just the EVO brands.
Take it off once it turns green, it's full. If you leave it plugged in longer it will stop using the charger and use battery till it gets down to like 90% then the charger kicks back on.
Okay it was just a shock to me because I owned the vibrant, incredible, and g2 and the 3vo is the only one thats done this. But if its normal I guess I have nothing to worry about. Althought I still may get a replacement, I just charged it completely and its down to 53% after only 2 hours and 20 minutes and the only thing I've done so far is post this thread on xda haha.

[Q] Battery %

When I fully charge my GS3 and pull out the charger it drops to 99% straight away. Does this happen to everyone else's?

Isnt that just right? if you have 100% of battery and you start using it, you dont have 100% anymore right that second. Its like a countdown, when you have 10 minutes, and you start your timer, then right after you start it, you only have 9 minutes and % seconds,and it goes down...you never have 10 minutes for a minute, and then suddenly 9 minutes.
It doesn't fully charge your battery to 100% to prevent it from over charging, which will increase the life span of your battery. My I9000 does this too

Might explain it then. Soon as I pull out the usb cable from the phone it drops to 99%

Battery charge too slow

Was just curious to know how long it takes you guys to charge your EVOs. I think my phone takes a ridiculous amount of time to charge and the battery seems to discharge at a faster rate than when I first got the phone. I'm am currently charging my phone from a complete drain. It has been 6 hours and it is still only 90% finished. That can't be correct?

Depending on how many accounts you have and at what frequency they update determines your battery life dramatically even if being charged. I have 8 different accounts which the phone says is high but it still takes around 3 to 4ish hours to fully charge from zip. If you basically put your phone in airplane mode or just turn phone off it'll charge fully in what feels like an hour but really probably an hour and a half or so.

Wow. My phone charges incredibly fast. So fast that I never trust it. It'll go from 20%-80% in 40 min. But the last hump from 99%-100% takes a while.

I'm honestly not sure what to think. Next time ill try it with the phone off. But as it stands two hours have passed since I made this post but the battery light still isn't green though the battery does appear to be full according to its icon.

I'm in the same boat. It takes forever to charge. I remember I could be around 25& on the evo and would charge for probably 25 minutes before work and would be fully charged or almost fully charged.
Mine charges faster than my S2 and that was fast. I went from 45%to 95 in a hr.

My battery charges way too fast...
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Mine charges from 20%-90% in less than an hour, but from 90%-100% takes almost an hour. I assume its just the way it displays battery% or the amps drop down near the end.

Battery Not Completely Charging

Has anyone had an issue charging their phone to 100%? My phone seems to get stuck at 99%.
I haven't noticed it but in the past with other devices, I could drain all the way down and charge up to full to fix.

Are you using the phone while charging?

I was at first, but I couldn't get it to fully charge even when it was powered off.

Well it takes a while when at 99%, but don't touch it while it's on and wait for it to top off. It's probably trickle charging at 99%.

I read here somewhere that from 99% to 100% took about 20-30mins. It could be a firmware thing or they can be doing what Apple is doing so you don't overcharge it.

It's possible, that's how long it takes for mine.

I've had my one for three days now and I've charged it twice, the first time it took about three hours to charge and Ya it took a long time for it to go from 99-100 percent the second time it seemed to go quicker...just what I've experienced.

Mine stops charging at 90%. Its weird.
Sent from my HTC One using xda premium
It charges and discharges to conserve the life on the battery. If the phone was kept on a 100% charge the whole time then that would decrease the life of your battery drastically.

I wouldn't worry about it. It's better to keep it at less than 100%. If there was a manual settings threshold, I would keep them as start charging when below 70% and stop at 90%. This is my battery charge threshold setting on my Thinkpad X230T laptop.
