H, I just got the x10a. I have some questions about the process of charging the phone.
With my last 2 phones, an k850 and a xperia x1a i learned to charge the phone every night. I arrived at home, plugged the phones to their chargers , sleep. Wake up, went to work at 7, battery was at 100% every morning.
Now with the x10a, i arrive at home, battery is almost at 40% aprox, plug the phone to the charger, and go to sleep, wake up at the same time and battery is always at 60~70%, with the cable and back of phone running hot. Yesterday went to see the phone status at 11pm, battery was at 90%, went to sleep, wake up at 4am checked the phone and battery was at 52%, so instead of charging, was discharging, is this normal behavior? I removed the battery and put it on again and the charge jumped to 85%.
All of this is normal?

Kind of if it's new, cycle the battery a few times and it should sort itself out.
Yeah the same thing happens to me. I checked juice plotter and at 2:30 am, I'm fully charged then at 5:00 am, I'm at 70 percent. The it repeats the cycle.

That is very odd.. has someone timed how long it takes for the battery to get to 100% Just today I got the please charge now message.. it took 2 hours give or take to get to 100% it maybe you need to cycle the battery. I am using my blackberry 9700 battery charger ( OEM one was left in my hotel room ) The blackberry is output 5VDC and 700mA.
I've noticed that charging the phone using a USB port takes a lot more time that when using an AC/DC adaptor. The USB ports on my PC give out 100 milliamps while the AC/DC adaptor that came with the phone gives out 700 milliamps. Are you charging using a PC USB port or an AC/DC adaptor?

I've had this happen a few times I plug the phone in at night & when I wake up it's still charging and warm. I now shut my phone off before plugging in the charger & have not had the problem. My guess is some process is running in the background preventing it from properly charging.
ya just cycle the battery few times and it should be okay. it should be noted that the x10 will charge to 100% and stop charging until the battery drops down to 90% (at least for me)
Phone off worked!
Had a same weird issue after 5 months of usage. First 5 months were fine (needed to charge once every 24 hours). Have noticed in past 2-3 days that when I leave it for chanrging overnight, it does not go to 100%. Sometimes it would go upto 76%, other time 86 and so on. Cannot understand this. Have not installed anything in last 2-3 days either. Do not know the root cause but solution suggested by Phoneguy above worked. That is, I put netwrok setting OFF and then switch my phone OFF. Then I plugin phone to charger and start charging. This way it is getting charged to 100%. Hopefully this workaround will last for another year, at least

Mine does the same thing. I checked with battery graph. It charged to 100% and then it'd stop and drop to 90% and charged back to 100%, in repeated cycles. Is this just a X10 thing? I want to have 100% before leaving the house!

This is normal and for Security. When you leave the Phone charging when it has 100 it stops Charging until 90 or something then charge again becouse if it wouldnt do it your Battery will run too hot and could make real damage.

The phone actively discharges the battery when plugged in. I've tried the above suggestions and they worked, but only found small success as the battery wouldn't charge past 40%. Now my phone will not boot and the battery is completely drained.
I called SE North America last night and they told me that I broke the battery. I called BS and they then told me that they'll send me a free new battery as a courtesy despite it not being covered in the warranty. Overall, a pretty good experience, but the key point the rep said was to not trickle charge the battery.
I do have a sneaking suspision that it's not the battery because it's only 5 months old, but good because they didn't say anything about the phone not being officially released in the US and not being supported by a warranty.
I hope this post doesn't get deleted as well...lolz.
here it is my graph for the last day, plugged the charger aroung 4pm batt was at 13%, in the office and around 8pm from home, if you see, from 8:44pm to 9:41pm the batt was at 100% an then it goes down and reach 60% at 3am, so it was discharging, and then it tried to charge to reach 100% but couldnt. at 6:30am i woke up and bat was at 78%. so, how can i get it to keep the charge, i dont mind going form 90 to 100 but not going from 100 to 60 and to 100.
anybody can help?
This morning went into battery saver to see the estimate of battery life when I unplug and noticed that the phone stopped charging at 96%. It was charging the whole night. Unplugged. Waited. Plugged it in again but it sat there at 96% and not charging any further.
I noticed the same after updating to latest firmware yesterday (11500). Though I still get more charge than before the update. But the last 4% wont charge for some reason although the battery indicator shows as full when the phone says its fully charged.
Probably not an issue, Samsung often do it on purpose.
I don't believe it's an issue either. At least I do not worry about it. It's just a number that doesn't impact the phones functionality.
I´m spanish, just in case you want to answer to me in castellano . I also had the same issue. When i charged it the second time, it reached 100 %, but full charge capacity lowered to 1380 mAh.
In that ocassion the battery was depleted in 11 hours with a high discharging rate. Strange thing is that today when I charged it for the third time discharge rate is low again, something around 120 mAh and the battery´s life expectancy is back again to normal (27 hours or so).
Anyway, the full capacity is still around 1380 mAh. I say around because the number changes by the day.
Saludos.
Yes, running 11500 and only noticed it today. The other day when I actually checked battery saver in the morning it was at 100% and 1 day 3 hours remaining with 1517 mAh full capacity ... today, as I mentioned, 96% and just 23 hours remaining at 1470 mAh full capacity. It appears that there is still something screwy with the battery. The phone does last longer than before however.
Had similar issues with HTC Desire back in the days when it wouldn't charge to 100% required full discharge or battery recalibration.
Now mine charges up to 100%. It was just the first charge after update that went up to 96% only.
The maximum charge capacity fluctates from time to time. Nothing to worry about it just does that I assume.
What is det estimatet time remaining after charging 100%?
Around 1 day and 15 hours.
I have the same issue! I left the phone charging the whole night, the morging after the battery charge indicator was 100%, but as soon as i un-plug the usb charging cable it fall back to 97%!
I suggest you to use the nokia diagnostic app to see the charging percentage of the battery, in my case is never up 97%. I think It's a WP7 bug...
The bug isn't that big.
I've had mine stuck on 45% for a while, that was really annoying
Is anybody having problems fully charging the battery to100 percent? I noticed the battery life has gotten worse since I owned the phone. it would always charge 100 percent. Now it only charges to about 98 percent. I made sure all active apps are turned off and running apps as well turned off. I will turn my phone off at least once a week and fully charge it overnight. I notice after doing this the battery life Is always worse.

Don't believe your battery bar...
Check the number of volts your battery has... its a much better indicator

The phones charges to 100% and then it stops charging if left on the charger. So you will lose 2% or 3% of battery power before it start charging again. This is designed to help keep the battery healthy as its usually not a good idea to leave the phone charging for long periods of time.
I charge mine until the thing on the status bars pops up indicating "full" and then remove from charger. The "full" indicator pops up about a half hour after the phone shows 100% which I find odd however... That also might be a battery health thing as they probably don't want you to charge it to absolute max, so maybe by saying 100% whens its more like 97% that it helps with battery health...

It trickle charges for a while after hitting 100%, then shuts off giving you the "unplug me" notification, drains a few %, then back to trickle charging.
In the morning if you unplug it and then plug it back in it will be fully charged in less than 30 minutes. To the full 100%.
When I first got my phone I was playing with it so much (and testing out the true battery capacity) I was often plugging it in at night with a nearly dead battery - which takes longer to fully charge overnight. So by morning it had only stopped charging an hour or two earlier so it still showed 100% for a while. Lately its been at 60-70% so by morning it has been done for 4-5 hours. So after booting it often shows 98%. No difference in battery capacity, just a longer time post-charge where it has drained a percent or two.

Thanks for all the replies. I guess it makes sense. it just seems to run down a lot faster everytime I turn the phone off and back on the next day. It must just be me

Try the unplug-then-replug routine one morning to restart the charging process. See if it is better that day. If it is, you are probably running into the same problem I talked about in my last paragraph.
Has anyone got the same problem where your L9 stop charging at 89% and start draining fast like hell, mine drop to 86 % in 2 minutes even when the charger is still connected. Battery recalibration seems didn't work. Charging while the phone is dead didn't work too. Any suggestions?
Yes, I plugged my P769 in the wall to charge at night. In the morning, it shows that the phone is 92% charged. Took the phone off the charger and didn't really use the phone much, but checked my phone about 7 hours later and it was down to 1% remaining. Charged it again last night, and it's showing 92% this morning. Seems like it does not charge after 92%. This happens only a couple of days ago, and I didn't tweak my phone in any way.
I have had my watch for almost 3 months and recently I've noticed that it is taking longer to charge. I used to be able to put it on the charger in the morning when I woke up and leave it on the charger until I left for work about 1 hour and 10 minutes later and it would easily charge from about 50% to 100% in less than 1 hour. Now it seems that I can only get into the mid 90's charging for an hour and 10 minutes from approximately 50%. I don't like to leave the watch on the charger overnight so I would like to be able to fully charge in the morning, even though my battery life is good and I don't run the risk of killing the watch with one day's use.
It looks like it just needed a restart. Charging nice and fast tonight.

same problem here since android 6.0.1
It seems to be hit or miss. It fast charges fine sometimes and others it is not fast. Last night it charged from 35%-80% in no time. I left it on the charger overnight and when I looked at it this morning it was stuck at 97% and battery stats showed that it had not changed since reaching 97%. I restarted it and it charged up to 100% within a couple of minutes.
