Just now 100% charging is completed and got the Beep but after unplugging the charger it showed 96% this is the 5th time I am getting like this..Any idea how to fix it? thought it is FW bug and changed to KI8 from KI3 still same
EDIT: Now I am rooted and did wipe battery stats still same problem
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).

Helped increase my battery life, others with the same problem as you said it worked too, good luck!

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.

30.min battery charge %80
1.hour %60 ...
3 or 3.30.hour %5
(just internet 2g and 3-5 message ) that is normal ?

Have you do battery calibration right?
Use your ace until the battery getting low, then wipe battery stats, and use your ace until it turns off by its self. Finally, charge your phone (power off) 'til full. Do it twice.
I recommend you to use battery calibration app. Get it in market.

Then try flashing stock rom. If the problem still persist, I guess there's something wrong with the battery. Buy a new battery, or if you're not sure just bring your ace to Samsung Service Centre and let them see the problem.

Tried, but did not help, I even tried to charge it off to the most can not, but it did not help.
It is possible that you could have over discharged your battery at some point. If calibrating and the thread mentioned above did not do the trick, you may have a damaged lithium cell. Over discharging can cause weird things to happen to batteries often leading to their failure. Or, you could simply have a faulty battery, or even worse... failing hardware.
I'm not trying to scare you, I just thought this information might be useful to this thread. I hope you get it all resolved.

I agree. It sounds like a damaged battery. Have any of you ever drained your battery completely dead? If yes and you've done so often, you most likely damaged your battery. Lithium batteries should never be completely drained.

What ICS ROM are you running? Is it the OTA update for non-rooted tabs, or are you rooted and flashed one of the custom ICS ROMS? I agree with others that it sounds like a battery issue, but knowing which ROM you are running would be helpful.
It's an official ics but from diffrent region " i dont think it matters " ,, also i dont think my battery is dead because when it goes to 2% it stays like thaypt for hours of using, but when it was normal 2% lasts for less than half an hour

Seriously what is wrong with my cell?? I can not leave it idle/ put it to sleep! Whenever i do so, the battery meter drops to 0 and i can't even switch it on, without plugging in the charger and charging it for 5 minutes, after which the battery shoots to 100. Without letting it go idle, however, i can use it for 2-3 hours non-stop, during which it heats up a lot. Is the battery faulty, or something wrong with the cell itself?
I've tried changing the rom (stock to CM) but to no avail (nothing wrong with the rom)

Try resetting battery stats (that doesn't seem like it's the problem, as well as formatting system, wiping data, wiping cache, dalvic, voltage options (if you've even messed with those), and then booting up the phone once, turning it off, take the battery out for a couple minutes, put battery in (keep phone off), charge for 15-30 minutes, turn on, and see how everything looks then. If it seems to have resolved the problem, I suggest just turning your phone back off and charging it the rest of the way. If what I said above does not work, then your battery is probably ****ed, or possibly your phones battery connectivity port (idk too much about that). Since the problem persists on both stock and CM I'd say it's very likely to be your battery. Try buying a new OEM battery if what I said does not work. They're usually 30-45. You can buy cheapo ones too (probably won't damage your phone like others say - enough to care), but expect them to be a lot less efficient/weaker.

That's is very weird.
I don't want to conclude that your battery is faulty.
I think the reading is anyway inaccurate.
Try the following:
-We need to check the battery health.
-Dial *#*#4636#*#* on your phone
-select battery information
-tell me what you see under battery health

lol'd at the screenshot, yea check the battery health and reset your fuel gauge chip.

Now let's try these steps:

-Download "extweaks" from market
-disconnect your phone from charger
-open extweaks Grant it Su access.
-goto under Misc and select "reset fuel gauge chip"
-Close extweaks

I think he mentioned he'd already tried that. Considering his battery health and everything seems to be fine, I'm wondering if it's somehow the transfer between battery and phone, though it seems very unlikely. I'm sure he'll post once he tries the new OEM battery

My brother's phone has the exact same issue and we got to the same conclussion. Please let us know how it went (out of curiosity, cause he is returning the phone, but we've invested so much time into it that I want to now what was the issue...).
FOR THOSE WITH BATTERY PROBLEMS:
1. After flashing your phone with a new ROM, install this software:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/d...ibration&hl=en
BATTERY CALIBRATOR - 47 KB size
2. Then, charge your phone to 100%.
3. IMPORTANT. Remove CHARGER first.
3. IMMEDIATELY hit "Battery Calibration" (1 or 2 seconds delay is fine, wait for BATTERY voltage to drop and be stable)
4. Use your phone normally (don't charge in between) till it hits 1%.
5. Then charge your phone UNINTERRUPTED (leave it for charging all night) till 100%.
6. Unplug and start using. You should be having as little as 2-3% battery drain for 6-8 hours of IDLING now. That's the optimization of a calibrated battery.
ENJOY! Hope this helps!
Even Google confirmed that deleting that one file has nothing to do with battery drain,its just place where phone saves battery using from apps.

Letting Lithium Ion get to low charges then charging it will decrease battery life, you can leave them plugged in a charger and it will be fine, just like when you leave your laptop plugged in or leaving a UPS plugged in.

actually what battery calibration really do is it makes battery percentage display on status bar more "accurate".
when you flash a new rom, old battery data is not deleted so it will be inaccurate (ex: showing 52% on status bar when your battery is at 30%)
therefore, calibration doesn't improve battery life :laugh:
Ive heard of it before. keeping your battery level between 60% and 80% help prolong your battery's lifespan.

It kinda does improve your battery life, because for instance your phone is reading 10% while the phone actually have 30% then the phone may shut down anytime because it think it has low power.
