Hi,
I flashed the latest Wanam ROM and latest Siyah kernel.
Flashed with 3 wipes, I know the drill still have the SGS2.
When I go to 'System Settings -> Battery' it only shows 'Android OS' up time.
The graph seems to be working well but there is no 'Screen time' or any of the apps I used or even "Call", just Android OS.
I tried 'Fix Permission' via recovery but it has no effect.
Looking for a solution.
Thank you.

CWM recovery - advanced - wipe battery stats. Problem solved.
After that i suggest u to discarge the battery till the shut down, charge it continously until 100%, disconnect and reconnect the charger plug until it stops again to charge, wipe again the battery stats and ur battery is calibrated again. Enjoy it.
The stats are wiped whenever the phone reaches 90% charge and have nothing to do with battery calibration. That's an urban legend Google dispelled a long time ago.
Could you try betterbatterystats and see if it can see anything (it partially uses the same stats file)? If so, then the app for reporting is somehow damaged

wipe battery stats from CWM is the only way I found to solve the problem in the battery settings, it happened to me few hrs ago. (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=32307574&postcount=25609).
About the the fact of battery calibration I do it once per month and I can see the difference in daily battery life, so I'm used to suggest it.
Can pls you post the link of the source where Google explained the uselessness of this action?
Have a nice day

mm well... so why we got that strange issue? should solve it with a full chage so..
I noticed an audio wakelock. Try to adjust the volume for notifications and ringer (just switch it back and forth a couple times). You should notice a decrease in battery usage.
I had a similar issue while using siyah kernel. Battery monitor widget was recording all kinds of nonsense. I put it down to a jelly bean bug but haven't experienced it again since moving back to Perseus. It may be kernel related but I don't really see how. I also did a few other things sich as wiping caches and fixing permissions so I can't really say what fixed it.

Do you have CWM? My battery went mad two days ago. All I needed to do was clearing the battery stats via CWM.

Even more interesting. If you phone freezes and you need to do a cold reboot (hold power until reboot) the battery level can drop like 20 or even up to 50% at a time. (it then slowly increases by itself).

I don't know if the stock recovery has this option, so you should check it. If it doesn't, you could consider rooting your phone.
It worked for me, after my battery went crazy. It dropped from 100% down to 86% in 5 seconds. And when I checked the stats in the menu, I saw three lines if which one made an upside down looping. The first moment I was like "wtf?".
But if you don't want to, you should go have your phone repaired/replaced.

Ón my side it worked only with this steps:
1. Charge over night
2. run the app battery calibrator
3. unplug charger
4. drain battery all the way down till it shuts off
In this way yout phone can remember what is 100 % and what is 0%
PS: You need root permissions
I have asked Samsung Support on twitter about my problem they said: The device is fully charged, however, this is done to prevent overcharging which stresses the battery.

ok..Samsung Support said same
i did had same problem but when ever my phone beeps of full charging, then i disconnect and following the entropy method. That is power off the phone and full charge it and when the power is on, i checked and it shows 100%
I am getting some strange battery behaviour.
My device will turn itself fully off when sleeping about once a day. The power use graph often has strange jumps in it as well.
I've tried resetting battery stats but it's not made a difference.
Any ideas what could be causing it or how to fix it?
I've been having the same issue for the past few days. I've also been having a good amount of crashes. I am thinking about starting completely over: Odin back to 3.2, reinstalling CWM, and then trying the nightlies again. If that doesn't make it more stable, I may try Task 14 (HC).

Have you ever uv your device? It sounds like sleep of death.
And
If you're rooted download better battery stats from xda applications section and cpu spy from the play store to see your wakelocks and if your device is deep sleeping. Then post your bbs dump here

Well first, I would not recommend Juice Defender. I have heard that it causes the batter to drain more.
Secondly, the stats are only for not even 3 hrs. If you want a proper reading of what is draining battery it needs to be longer, if possible.
EDIT: What rom/kernel are you running? And did you do a full wipe when you flashed them?

I need an app that turns the wi-fi off when i'm not using it as I find wi-fi being creates a big battery drain. JuiceDefender has served me well for that purpose for years. Any other apps you can recommend for automatically turning off the connections?

Unfortunately 3 hours was the longest I could get before it turned itself off and the stats were lost.

I was running CyanogenMod 9 Nightlies Galaxy Tab 10.1 WIFI, then after a week switched to [ICS]Ganbarou GT-P7500/7501/7510/7511 CM9, and I am now as of yesterday on [JB][AOSP][ALPHA] Android 4.1.1 - Jelly Bean - [GT-P7510], full wipe as usual for them all, bar JellyBean where I had to return to stock first.
I've had the same power problem on them all, but i've noticed i've managed a 10hr stretch on JellyBean, so stats are attached.
Problem fixed.
I installed the Jelly Bean alpha, but it was still happening, so I drained the battery completely, then charged it fully, and that fixed the problem.
Hey this is my first post on xda
When my phone freezes for abit it automatically resets itself which i suppose you can consider normal. But after the reboot i have to connect charger. I can have around 70% charge but after the reboot its more like 10%. I have also gone through 3 genuine samsung batteries in the past 3 months. I can only put it down to bad phone voltage.
I have had this problem with my SII for the past couple of months. Its around 16 months old and not yet due for an upgrade so im hoping to fix it.
The pictures show my battery dropping around 30% just because my phone became unresponsive and would not work so i restarded it.
Cheers in advance, Chris

Happened to me quite a few times too. But mainly because of I was on a non stock kernel.
Would want to know whats occuring within it to cause such a drain.
Maybe its a battery calibration issue. It was not discharged instantly but the reading was inaccurate. ?
Have to tried recalibration techniques?
Post your ROM and kernel details; Goto Settings - About phone, and post everything you see
Nothing to worry about. The fuel-gauge chip just gone crazy.

Yes..agreed fuel chip gone crazy. Here is my screenshot. Discharged instantly when rebooted or as the system read it. Then without charging the battery reading gradually increased..!! Strange

Assuming you have rooted your SGS2, have you tried to reset the battery stats in CWM?
Battery stats is the file which is responsible for battery graph in settings. So deleting it won't help.
Hi,
I have a weird battery issue. You can check attached screenshot.
My battery percentage suddenly decreases for example %45 to % 12. Then as soon as I plug in charger it comes for example %12 to %26. Completely unstable battery stats. Sometimes after charging %100 it doesn't decrease for a while. then I reboot phone and it suddenly decreases to %89 or something like that.
2 or 3 times a day device shuts off by itself.
I have cm 10.2 android 4.3 rom and I come from omega v46 android 4.2. (I had same issue on omega). I always perform full wipe before installing a new rom.
I tried factory reset, BBS, remove sd card, reinsert sim card etc.. but I could'nt solve the issue.
Finally I bought another battery but same issue still goes on.Maybe it's about an apk like CPU Adjuster which I previously installed on Omega rom.
Can anybody help?
I am having same battery issues, my battery discharges very fast when the data network is on, my phone doesn't last 5 hours when the data service is on.

I think I was misunderstood. My problem is not battery drain. It's about unstable battery monitoring and device shutting off by itself. As seen on attached picture.
I thing the system app which is supposed to monitor my battery level and percentage is not working properly.

cm roms always have the issue of faster battery draining unlike stock ones. you say that you use better battery stats. then post the log here and someone could help you. (i got good battery by doing this: flashed boeffla kernel beta and put the governor to zzmove> yank extreme battery and installed easy battery saver and set to super power saving mode. the battery % didn't go down by at least 1% in my 7 hours of sleep and i was just amazed!) may/may not work for you.
:good:
I tried 3 different battery calibration APK, also tried "wipe battery stats" from recovery. None worked for me. Thank you.

Thanks for advices but I'm OK with my battery life. In my cm rom, battery life is better than stock ones. By the way Easy battery saver is really amazing, really saves battery. I used that before but it turns off everything in extreme mod, and I can't get what's up messages or my push mails etc. Anyway, as I said before my problem is not battery drain.
I installed "battery repair (doctor boost)" APK from market. It's a paid one. It seems to solve my problem. Everything looks ok since last night. If not, I will report again tomorrow.

Hi. I searched many forums, read hundreds of posts but still couldn't solve the problem (1st post) . I see many people suffering from same problem but no one has found an answer.
I'm sure that it's about one of zip files which I have flashed in my previous roms and I don't remember.
I'm sure because I had same issue in my previous omega v46 android 4.2 rom. Although I wiped everything and flashed cm 10.2 android 4.3 rom, the problem goes on. Even I bought a new battery but still the same problem. What causes this problem? It's really weird.

I was having hell lot of Problem with Battery backup (using SamHD V3.2), tried using Calibration but didnt work.
Then I after searching/surfing the Internet, used a custom Method as mention below :
1. Charge your Phone to 100%
2. Download "ROM TOOLBOX Lite" from Play Store.
3. Go to ROM Management -- Wipe Option -- Click Wipe Battery Stats (DO NOT tick any other options other than wipe battery stats)
4. It will ask for Reboot, do it.
5. Then charge the phone to 100%
6. Calibrate the phone using Battery Calibration & then start using the phone.
Phew!!! it works now, I was mad behind this problem and now my life is kool...
Note : If this doesn't work then instead of point no. 1, please do the Point No. 2 at 5% or 10% battery status

actually, you people are under illusion that deleting batterystats.bin file would resolve the battery problem. lol if your battery is in good condition, android would automatically show the right percentage when you let it charge for a few hours and then drain it. if not, you need to buy a new battery. know that the lifetime of micromax battery is only 1 year and it won't last more than that.
