Got the Verizon LG V10 shortly after its release.
MM update was released prior to my ability to buy a ZeroLemon 9000mAh battery. Installed MM.
Finally was able to purchase a ZeroLemon 9000mAh battery. Cannot currently root MM and need to calibrate my phone to the 9000mAh capacity. Following ZeroLemon's instructions has not been helpful, have also tried many other instructions (phone off, charge to 100%, turn on, charge to 100%, phone off and back on, charge to 100%, allegedly done), etc.
No love.
When I hit 1% and the phone turns off, I can perform a battery pull and reinstall and phone reads an additional 45% without charging.
Thoughts/ideas?

Hello there. I recently purchased the Seido 1400mAh battery and it came in today. I turned off my phone and popped in the new battery and turned it back on. From what I read about battery calibrating, I let the phone die and then plugged it in to charge. I wanted to check on it after charging for a few hours, only to find that it won't turn on. The red light kind of flashes when I push the power button. If I put my old battery back in it turns on just fine.
Any idea?
So I let it "charge" over night and still had the same issue. I was able to get into Android today but after a few minutes it just shut off. The battery has never gone above 0%.
Could this be a defective battery? The reason I bought a new battery is because the stock one is bulging and doesn't hold a charge, but it charges just fine in the phone.

The batt is defiantly defective and needs to be replaced if possible
I just got my replacement battery in the mail and it isn't charging either. This just doesn't make sense. It shouldn't be my phone because the stock battery charges just fine...
Okay, I have two batteries on my Vibrant. Both are official Samsung batteries bought at the same time. The one that came with the phone is dated August. The one that I bought separately is dated June.
Problem is, after using the August battery for a while, if I switch the June battery into the phone, it won't register a full charge properly. My external charger says it is fully charged, but when I put it into the phone, it immediately shows 88% charge. If I plug in the phone to charge with it in, it quickly jumps to 100% and says fully charged. But within seconds of unplugging the charger, it drops back to 88%. There's no way to get a full charge on it.
I have a feeling one of the two batteries has around 12% less capacity, probably the June battery. Very annoyed as it was bought with the phone at T-Mobile.
Anyone run into this and know if that's actually the case or if it might simply be a difference in needing to reset the phone's internal "battery meter", which I'm not sure how to do on the Vibrant?

Let the battery die. While turned off, charge it overnight or ~10 hours. Go into clockwork recovery and under advanced, choose wipe battery stats.
Very silly question...
Just arrived today. First ever tablet for myself. Bought the wife an ipad2 for xmas and, out of the box, it was 80% charged, ready to go. My TFP is only 4% and I am having to charge it before using it.
Normal?

That is normal for any electronic device. In fact, in the manual it will probably suggest that you fully charge it before you turn it on.
Batteries lose their charge over time even when the devices are not turned on.
Also something you should know, all electronics typically require a period of conditioning of depleting the battery to 10% and then fully charging it to 100% while powered on (but not being used) to gain their maximum battery life.
So basically:
1. Use it to 10%,
2. Plug it in while it is "sleeping", (not fully turned off but not being used)
3. Charge it to 100% then repeat the process a few times.
You will get your optimum battery life at that point. (Also, specific to the transformer you should leave it on the middle power setting (balanced) mode). Normal mode is actually a battery drain, they should be or already have changed that in an update to "performance".
Mine arrived dead.
All the guys in the office crowded around for the unboxing and when I pushed the power button I got 1 second of a big red battery icon in the middle of the screen and then nothing.
Was good for a laugh, no battery issues after charging it up.
Mine had about 30% charge.
Lithium Polymer batteries should have a full charge up before beginning inner cycle charging.
How long should the first charge take?

To expand on this, how long does it typically take to fully charge? I'm receiving my TFP tomorrow while I'm at work, and will have about 3 hours of charge time (give or take). Should I wait until I get home to start the charge process?
My Samsung Galaxy S4 (gt9505) with Cyanogenmod 13 is in reboot cycle since today.
It is switched off (after battery removal) and connected to an (Original Samsung) USB charger.
It shows the percentage of charging capacity, but reboots after a few minutes automatically.
Unfortunately, capacity is not increasing but decreasing during charging from 15% to now 9%.
To prevent deep discharge, I disconnected it from the charger.
Please give some advice! Thanks!!
[Solved]
I just wanted to give any reader and follower an update.
It works again. I just removed the battery for some hours. Maybe the device got too hot?!?!?
Hi, I recently changed the display and battery of a Samsung J7 Prime (SM-G610M), and I'm having problems with the battery, the phone dies at around 40% battery, and it dies it doesn't begin the shut down procedure. I tried recalibrating the battery with full charge, full drain, try to turn on, and full charge. This cycle 3 times, and it still does the same.
While I could go to the old battery I'm afraid to do so, as this phone model you need to take out the display to get to the battery, and I'm afraid of breaking it.
I even tried an app for battery calibration (thou the cel is not rooted), and it marked 4.2v at full charge.
