My battery on the CM10 Dragonzkiller JB rom is only charging to 71% and then it skyrockets to 100%. I can't figure out how to stop it. I've tried Wiping cache and letting the battery drain but to no avail. Do you know what I should do?

CM10 and CM9 both do this sometimes. If you find your battery jumping up to 100% or getting stuck at 100%, usually a reboot will set it back to normal.

IF YOU ARE HERE TO TELL ME THAT RECONDITIONING HURTS MY BATTERY, DON'T BOTHER REPLYING.
anyways...
everytime i flash a rom, should i recondition the battery? will i have the same battery life because i'm about to update from nero 3 to nero 4.1
Dont see why not.
Each rom may read the battery differently. the easiest way to deter that is to drain it all the way down until the phone dies, charge it all the way back up and wipe the battery stats.
Gives each rom a fresh reading
I went from 8-10 hours for the past 6 months to now I'm at 14 hours with 19% left after following http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=722862 .
I read somewhere else after letting it drain and charging (while off) again will further increase the counter/timer/life.
Remember though, doing it TO much to a lion battery will damage it. An every now and then (If you did it once every 3-4 months) is a non-issue.
How do you wipe the battery

On ClockWork recovery.
should i wipe battery stats i switching from extend. battery to stock. or only when switching roms? when does this matter?
[Also i know this doesn't belong here but my PC is really slow do easiest way is to ask: is there someway to search all my posts at once as they're becoming hard to keep track of ?]

I switched back to my stock battery after my extended died. I wiped battery stats, wiping stats when flashing new roms is recommended.
Wiping battery stats is never really considered an essential thing to do no matter what. It is nice though to do. I suggest it when you start realizing crap battery life on one ROM/kernel compared to the last one. The suggested way is to wipe it after installing a new kernel and as well as when you swap batteries. Other than that, really no need to in my eyes.
I wipe after every new ROM install, period.

This is when I do it also.
Digging up a thread here, didn't want to waste a new one.. But I have the OEM Extended Battery and I tried wiping my battery stats.. Charge full, reboot into recovery, wipe stats, unplug.. After this I noticed that my battery said 93% even tho the charge light was green.. I drained it until it turned off and charged again overnight.. In the AM, light was green, i turned phone on and its still showing 93% even though it was green. Any ideas? Did I lose that 7% forever?
Sometimes wiping the stats causes a bad battery read. A few reboots should get you back on track. If that doesn't work, try a full battery drain then a full charge. Let us know.
Will try that, even tho I kinda did already. I'm hoping with a few battery cycles the problem goes away.. What Im hoping is I don't need to bump charge now every time like I did when I had my inc

I doubt you lost anything. It would be like Spinal Tap having an amp which only went to 9.
I only had to wipe when my battery wasn't decreasing in percentage. After I wiped, it started decreasing like it should. I would think any fast reduction in percentage would be a bad battery.
Are there any proven facts out there that it is really ever necessary to wipe them? It's not like it actually improves battery life am I correct?
as far as wiping battery stats goes.
i have only used it when reconditioning a battery.
ie if you start noticing bad (read: worse that you have been getting) battery life after flashing a new rom or kernel. or just after a time using a standard rom.
what i do is
1 turn the phone off.
2 charge it on AC until it goes green and for an hour afterward.
3 unplug it and wait 30 seconds.
4 plug it back in and repeat step 3 until the light goes from red to green within 20 or so seconds. (this is called bump charging)
5 boot into CWR and wipe battery stats. and let it burn all the way down until it wont even turn on (flashing orange led)
6 charge to full and enjoy your maybe improved battery life.
when wiping battery stats, do i have to do it a few times or no? i wiped battery stats at full and drained battery until it turned off twice.. once wiping the stats with CWR and once, and after a cycle, with the 'battery calibrate' app (made by someone here on xda i believe)..
seems to be working okay i guess, but lets say i have 94%, i reset my phone and it comes back with only 84%.. it appears it's still reading my battery wrong by around 10%. is this normal?
It doesn't happen at every reset, looks like just the first one of the day. I guess I can charge to full, reboot, and charge to full again as a workaround.

i meant to ask this before but I forgot, can anyone try to do that and let me know if it happens to them too or if its just me
Charge with phone on until full then turn it off and charge.. about how long does it stay amber?

So I've had this problem on multiple roms - I charge the phone to 100%, and in my battery monitor app it says that its 4200mV. Under an hour, the % reading goes from 100 to 5, but the battery monitor states that its still at around 3500mV - I've tried wiping battery stats, but to no avail. What the heck is going on? Is my battery dead, or is it a bug in battery stats, or some other crazy problem?
Additionally, is there a way to get BSR on CM10 so I can wipe stats with that, or no?
My battery jumps like that too. Phone dies maybe 5 or 6 times a day.
As far as getting into BSR on CM10 you need to download the Hijack.zip and move it to system/etc/ if i remember right. Once you replace old one with the new one change permissions to RW/R/R.
After that install BSR and boom.
The Hijack.zip you need is in the CM10 post.

I will be as concise as i can be.
Yesterday after weeks on the CM10.1 nightly, i flashed the AOKP 4.2.2 Latest Stable build for my GSM RAZR XT910. Naturally after installation i started playing around with the settings ad instaling apps. After a reboot(i had done many before), my phone showed a battery of 55% when i had around 90% before hand. Obviously suspicious, i shut down my phone and plugged in the charger while the phone was off. The battery charging splashscreen showed a charge of 90%. even booting in the stock ROM showed a battery of 90%. I have wiped the cache, Dalvik Cache.
So finally, what is the problem? Why does this happen? Anyone else had this problem before?

Sometimes you have to let the rom settle for a couple of days,before it becomes "stable" you could let the battery drain until your phone shuts down and then fully charge the battery..that's a way of calibrate it.

Thanks! That did the trick
Hey guys,
Sincs ~2-4 weeks my battery of my Xperia Sola goes crazy. Everything was fine. At that time I had Xperia Revolution v2 installed [4.2.2.] At some certain point the battery of my phone began going crazy. When left it in fly-mode there weren't any issues with it, but as soon as I browsed in my Facebook app or reddit app or some other battery taking app my battery went from 61% to 22% within seconds. It often turned itself off when being at~20-25%.
Then I tried installing a new rom. (Ultra Xperia V11. (4.1.2.)) Generallly the battery life was increasing but I still have these sudden battery drops from 60%-20%. So it didn't help me at all.
Is it because I left my phone charged over the night?
Please help me! :crying:
Looks like there is a problem with your battery stats....
Reset your battery stats by fully charging it and then discharge it to 0% and let it automatically shut down... Then again charge it to 100% and then discharge it to 0%... Repeat this for 2 times and your battery should behave normal...
I tried this one,
Today I fully charged my phone, then I used facebook, youtube and instagram for like half an hour and It already shut down at 20% or something. Again I fully charged it and then it shut it off after using it. But Still I don't see any changes...
Then try a clean install of your ROM... Sometimes, dirty install of ROM results in several issues...
Clear /system, /data, /cache and dalvik cache and then reflash your ROM...
Hop this will fix your issue...

Ok, I'm gonna try this. But if this doesn't help, I Don't know what else to do. Should I buy a new phone or new battery then?...
