i leave my photon all night charging but when i wake up it only goes to 97%
i have been using the stock rom and now im on peers_'s deblur but both of them are still only showing 97% is there something wrong?
Try calibrating battery .. until it refuses to even blink. Then charge it. Also leaving overnight kills your phone's and its battery life as well. Generally it takes 3-4 hr to full charge using a wall charger and a hour or more from Usb via PC or lappy

Also.. avoid charging phones time to time. Charge only when you need the battery life ..

Do you have a customer recovery on your phone ?? If so you need to charge your battery with the phone off for atleast 4 hours. Boot directly into your recovery and clear Battery stats.. Its under advanced in CWM Recovery Version 2.0.2.7 ( Again the newest CWM does NOT flash the rom correctly so make sure to use the specific recovery per developer ( Jokersax v3 for CM Roms) or download the CWM recovery and down grade one version.

Hello...does anyone know?

you need to calibrate your battery by fully charging your phone without taking it off charger. let it die without plugging it in at all. when its dead fully charge again. remember don't pull the charger off. it should be giving better battery life after that. I usually do mine a couple more times for the hell of it.
Does that really work?

Turn off Wifi, BT, data, and kill apps. Look into juice defender to help with your battery power.

yes it does. calibrating by "wiping battery stats" doesn't do ****. but calibrating by charging and killing does. its the only way I know of to actually calibrate a battery. I have significantly longer life in both my epic touch 4g and my evo 3d.

also you can check which apps are killing your battery. if your battery life is horrible you may have a rogue app. try using betterbatterystats and cpu spy.

I've never noticed it to give me better battery life. What I do is carry extra stock sized batteries with me if I know I will be away from a charger for a long time.

Lol battery stat wipe sometimes is needed if you flash a rom and it shows 99% with a green light as a full charge...
Once your phone hits 100% unplug it and let it die make sure fastboot is off and let it drop dead then let if fully charge
This has given me very good results with all phones I've had:
Get Juice Defender Ultimate from the market and follow the settings from this post:

I assure you you'll see wonders with your battery.

Agreed. Here is my latest cycle with over 6hours screen time. Didn't screen shot at 1 percent but I was at almost 1 day and 14 hours. 38 hours on with 6 hours screen time is almost TOO much for me haha hard to cycle the battery.

What it really does is; lowers cpu and gpu, lowers refresh rate on screen and I think change some tints to blue ish. Basically takes your phone back a couple years in technology

Folks,
Attached is a graph of my Amaze's battery cycle. The discharge curve is for a normal to heavy use and charging curve. The right side shows charging straight to full using AC wall charger. The battery charges to about 70% pretty quickly, maybe within 1.5 hr but then as you see in the graph it takes another 2 hrs to go to 100%. Is this normal? I have a Galaxy Nexus with same age battery (2 yr old) running cyanogenmod 11, it's battery charges full in less than 2 hr and the charging curve is pretty much steep all the way to full, without slowing down for the last 30%. Any thoughts?
Cheers

Interesting thing, after waiting to get full charge at 80% if I reboot into recovery, it shows full battery. See the attached screen shot, after rebooting at 80% it has jumped to 100%.

The best way to charge is to pull the battery and then plug in. Test how long it takes to charge from there

There's been another thread in this about a year ago..

Thanks, I presume you suggest charging without turning it on then?.

Yes, and pulling the battery makes sure it's fully off. Some Roms enable fastboot by default so when you think you shut off your phone it's still on.

I'm using the official dock, and it's been charging for 4 hours, from 40% to 75% using supplied charger
This seems really crap. Is this normal? Is this a limitation of charging via the pins than the microusb port?
Nothing in the docs mentioned this limitation.
14 hours to fully , 1% every 8 minutes..
I don't have this issue with any of my docks or magnetic cables.
Sorted it. It was the USB extension cable i was using. Connecting it diectly to charger and it will do a full charge in 4 hours.

That's quite the misrepresentation made in the original post where you said you were using the oem dock and cabling etc - of course the extension cable can change charge times! Glad it got sorted.

Hi,
Can you share which make and model charger are you using please? Would like to get one...
I am using the Sony supplied EP880 charger and Sony micro-usb cable - and in the past 1hr the battery has gone from 14% to 42% - i.e. 28% in 60mins = approx 0.5% a min - whereas you are getting 2% a min!
Many thanks!

Thanks for the reply - will look out for that or other QC2.0 chargers.
In the end, the EP880 took 3.5 hours to charge from 14% to 99%. But then it took another 15-20mins for it to get to 100%!! And I was not using it during that time - just kept occasionally turning the screen on to check the charge level.
