Look, it just does it for everyone. Its not an issue.
Apparently the latest release from samsung doesn't do this any more.
But essentially, as soon as one minisculer, tiny, mini, minute little bit of power is used, like 1 millionth of a milisecond of an LED light or screen on or data connection etc, its no longer truly 100%.
So if its 99.9999999999999999999999999999% battery, it shows as 99%.
I guess Samsung changed it to change to 99% later in the newest release because everyone whines about it. About 5 threads a week here.

the new uk unbranded firmware charges to 100% and stays on 100% when i take it of charge
Regardless of what the indicator displays, ion lithium batteries never charge 100%.. once it reaches 100% it discharges to avoid over charging..
It's not an issue..

Keeping the screen on will dran the battery since that's what screens do.
Regardless of the device (including laptops), screens always take >50% of the battery.
Could you show the screen-on time?

Let me venture a guess. When you get a new phone, you tend to play with it a lot, hence the screen on time and battery drain Give it a few days, it will be fine -- this phone has great battery life.

The battery needs to go through a few full cycles of drain and charge before it's reached optimal performance. First week battery drained more but now it's performing brilliantly.
Just keep letting it drain completely and charging fully a few times and have auto brightness selected.

I've heard that li-ion batteries don't suffer from memory issues and there's therefore no reason to calibrate them or run them in any specific charge/discharge cycle.
If you ask 100 different people about how best to use your battery you'll get 100 different answers. Don't worry about it, just enjoy the phone.
Hmm. This phone probably has the best battery life of any android phone I've owned, and I've had a few.

Look in the attachments..
You haven't said how long the screen was on for.
I could show this first screenshot and say OMFG the battery doesn't last, but actually when you look at the second screenshot, then there's obviously no issues (and I am indeed perfectly happy with my battery life)

Tripe.
Minimum of 3 cycles to reach peak performance. I have flashed hundreds of roms/kernals, it ALWAYS takes a few days for the battery to normalise.
Op, take a chill pill, calm down, post again in a few days. If you're still having drain, it will be down to an app or your settings.

So I've been hacking my atrix for a year and it had this issue with the battery where when you had a custom rom it would charge past like 95 or 97% does the s2 have the same issue?

I came to the S2 from the Captivate. The captivate would charge to 100 then when unplugged sometimes would immediatell drop 2-3 percent.
I have never had this problem, or one like yours at all on the S2. Mine charges to 100 then stays there for quite a while after unplugged.

The only battery related issue we have is that on a reboot sometimes the device appears to lose most of its battery (unfixable bug with our fuel gauge). After that it will either not drain at all for a long time or it might go up a couple of digits.

Isn't the "fix" for this to remove your battery for a couple minutes and after putting it back in, charge it to 100%? I've had the issue where the battery percentage would drop significantly after a reboot and after using this method, it seems to work fine until I flash another rom.

The only "fix" is do have it plugged in while you reboot it.

I had the Atrix and from my understanding over there that's not an atrix issue. It's built into the code of the phone to prevent "over charging" Stock roms would show 100% because they didn't want average consumers freaking out. But they removed it in custom ROMs so battery % would show correctly

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%.
Sent from my HTC One using Tapatalk 2
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.

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.
Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using xda app-developers app
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.
Hey
I have aproblem that is so strange!
For example when I turn off my mobile it restarts!
Even if I pull out the battery and put it in it just power on automatically! !
Sometimes if the phone successfully was turent off, when I press any button it indicates that it is charging!
And now the battery is full even though am using it for around 2hrs
So my question is: is it a phone hardware or battery issue?

as i said it just went away after a while i think the problem is being caused by overcharge, so when u keep charging it to 95% the voltages come back to normal.
In other words charge it till 95% for like 10 charges and it will be fixed.
Well gonna try and reply back thanks

A little over charging can even be beneficial according to some reports and data. However overcharging in general is highly discouraged and will damage the battery in the long run.(10 hours maybe too much in my opinion but a few hours wont hurt)
Might have mattered 10 years ago, but everything has circuits to stop overcharging now anyway so doesn't matter.

But someone told me that when the battery fully charged, it would stop charging automatically even i connect to the mobile to wall plug..
Is it true...? I mean does it has something automatically stop..

It will not stop it will just say no to any charge and when the battery reaches arnd 95% to 97%, it will start charging and to full again. Then the cycle repeats until u stop charging.
