Newbie here - I have a stock G Tablet.
Have added many apps and also Flash and it is working great.
My one concern is that however long I charge the unit,
I can't get the battery indicater to go above 93%.
Is anyone else experiencing this ?
hello there,
yes i am having the same problem. no matter how long, mine can't get past the 95% mark. clockwork mod + tnt 2.2
ideas on how to fix this, anyone?
regards
Try to recharge with the device powered off, and let it charge for at least half an hour after the light turns green.
I've left it plugged in a good 2 to 3 hours after the green light came on.
It still only reaches 93%.
Is it a bad battery, bad charger, etc.,
Any thoughts... anyone ?

Do a full cycle, all the way dead and then charge as stated for about 30 minutes after the green light comes on. It could be just a calibration problem. How long is the battery lasting for you?
I use it for short periods throughout a day, so it is difficult to gauge an accurate time.
A rough guess would be approximately 6+ hours.
I always thought it wasn't good to totally drain this type of battery ?

I think this is a LiPo battery - if so, then its is OK to let it drain all the way - just don't do it too often. You should *always* do two full discharge/recharge cycles on any Lithium-based battery as soon as you purchase it, and again about every month or two.
For removable Lithium-based batteries (i.e. *not* for gtab!), if you aren't going to use the battery for, say, more than a week, the best thing to do is to discharge it to about 50% and then put it in the refrigerator. When you are going to start using it again, let it warm to room temperature for at least a few hours to a day (depending on how big it is), *then* put it on the charger. Absolutely do not charge the battery cold as the thermal shock could damage the battery.
The initial discharge/recharge cycles "primes the pump" so that you get the maximum capacity out of the battery (who knows how long the battery has been 'sitting on the shelf'), and the ongoing discharge/recharge cycles keeps the battery at its maximum capacity *and* allows the calibration electronics more accurately track the slow decline of the battery's capacity.
BTW, my gtab's battery lasted on-and-off for almost 2 1/2 days. That was 'sleeping' it at night (*not* turning it off!) and using it on-and-off wifi/surfing/playing AB during the day. I must say, the gtab's battery life is phenomenal!

Thanks. Tried the full discharge and then full charge with the gtab turned off, left for about an hour after the green indicator, but still stuck at 95%. Even deleted the batterystats.bin file. no change. must i do two cycles of full discharge and charge?
I'm having similar issues. I powered off my gtab overnight and let it charge for 8-9 hours and I have not been able to get the battery to say 100%. I'm going to leave it on all day and let it discharge completely and try again tonight.
Drained battery and left it charging overnight and while I was at work (15+ hours) and its still at 95%. I wonder if I should exchange it now.... I'll give it another week....
If you do two full discharge/recharge cycles and the battery is still not showing 100%, then I would take it back. Either it is the battery or the battery calibration electronics that isn't working (my bet would be the battery). Furthermore, since the battery is "not removable", its just not worth keeping it and taking the chance.
If the battery had been removable, then Viewsonic could have just sent you a new battery instead of having a whole gtab come back....
(Note for Viewsonic - this is where removable batteries are superior to non-removable!)

Before you return it check the actual battery life. If it turns out that it's just a calibration issue and if your happy with everything else, perhaps you should keep it.
Read the thread about my battery test...
mine is different... I can charge up to 100%, and keep using it for few hours at night, put it to sleep, then I wake up in the morning and find the battery completely drained... any1 has the similar issues??

You can try going to settings/applications/running services and turn off all non-essential services before putting it to sleep.
Mine doesn't get above 96%, will have to try the suggestions here but overall I'm still very happy with battery life of the 96%...
thanks, i'll definitely try that... but I don't think I have too much installed or services running since I flashed it with the new ROM.
have you guys notice your battery temperature? i got 2 gtab but both operating at different temperature 1 at 23-24 other is around 31?
My battery life seems pretty good even though it doesn't go higher than 95-96%. I saw in another thread to try resetting battery statistics in clockwork recovery to see if that will fix the battery display problems. I'm going to try that next.
I've got the Malata Zpad (SMB-1002-3G) and mine now wont go over 91% (happened on the 3rd day). It used to charge to 100% no problem for the first two days.
I did a recovery (format) when you press the power and volume up button, but that didn't seem to do anything (other than wipe all my settings and put it back to original factory settings of course)
I'm pretty sure the battery is fine, and lasts just as long, but it would be good to be able to reset the battery status.
PS: My Zpad is not rooted or anything. It's pretty much standard (just running Launcher Pro).

Do you have Clockwork installed by chance? If you do you can charge the battery all the way up and then go into clockwork and reset the battery stats.

My htc amaze doesn't display battery % correctly all the time.
How can I calibrate my battery? I see a bunch of methods but Im not sure whats best for the amaze
Im useing bulletproof 2.1.0 and faux .008 beta 4
thanks!
what has worked for me with bulletproof is to drain the battery to under 15%, charge it overnight, boot into recovery and wipe the battery stats.
will try it, thanks

so i figured out that my phone doesn't read my battery life correctly anymore, it will be at 39% and shut down, then i turn on my phone it will have 4% and itll turn off right away so i plug in my charger and it'll have 55%
dont really understand whats going on any help?
I just used this app and it worked, it reads the percentage just fine
https://market.android.com/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&hl=en
I havent been able to get my battery to stay at 100%, just says 99% and i have to guess when its fully charged. wiped battery stats and everything. running the same ROM

As the app says, all it does it delete the batterystats file. Use root explorer and go delete /data/system/batterystats.bin and you accomplished the same thing as that "app"

I get the same thing.. and because the device doesn't die all the way(at about 1% it does a soft power off) I can't get it calibrated right.
I'm using senseless, and I think it is more than the battery stats file.. tonight it was at 40%, started bootlooping for no apparent reason.. pulled the battery, rebooted and it said it was at 13%.
It has been a solid rom in a lot of senses(pun?), but I may try something else because of the quirks it has been having..

thats what was happening to me, i did a full wipe, using bulletproof, then calibrate, Im still testing but so far it reads fine, will update if everything is working fine in a couple of days.
another method is abit troublesome...
1. charge your phone battery till full (off mode)
2.when full unplug it, and open up the cover
3. take off the battery and left it there over 90sec or more..
4. put back the battery n bootup your phone.. it should calibrate..
if your battery is used too long it might your battery problem

I'm only a two week owner of the Amaze, but I've found curious differences between the stock battery and the Anker (1900 mAh). First, the stock battery will remain at 100% for a fair length of time before starting to drop (sorry, I haven't quantified it, but it's easily half hour to 45 mins even after making a call or two). However, the Anker battery drops off of 100% pretty quickly, as little as 10 minutes without doing anything. Admittedly, I've cycled the stock battery a few more times than the Anker, and even Anker says it takes 4 to 5 full charge and discharges to reach best performance, but I don't recall the stock being that quick to drop even after the 1st full charge. I haven't used the Anker enough yet to have a feel of whether the Anker will last longer overall, though.
Off topic, but somewhat related - The Anker charger doesn't seem to charge the battery to a full 100% - either the Anker battery or the original. In both cases, as soon as I install the battery from the Anker charger, the Amaze meter indicates just 96%. I even left it plugged in for another hour after the light turned blue, but it didn't help. Not a biggie, just an observation.
BTW, I got this from someone else who had already posted it, but according to a Google Engineer it seems that resetting battery statistics doesn't help. Read about it here: http://www.androidcentral.com/wiping-battery-stats-doesnt-improve-battery-life-says-google-engineer

exactly lol. my battery will stay at 100% (99% according to bulletproof) for a long time then once it drops it drops fast
I left my phone off while charging, and I'm having good results.. only weird thing is that it slowly flashes on and off the orange light and never shows green while powered *off* and on the charger.. I can't find anything that shows this is normal. Is it supposed to get to a green light when powered off and charging?

Hmmm. I would check this out! http://www.androidcentral.com/wiping-battery-stats-doesnt-improve-battery-life-says-google-engineer
I didnt think it improved battery life, My phone just didn't read it correctly which wiping battery stats does fix!
For the past few days my battery has been charging to a max of 92%, whether or not I try unplugging the battery, leaving the phone on the charger, wiping battery stats, and doing all that I can to try to reset the battery stats.
Anyone have any idea?
UPDATE: My phone is still not charging past 92%, no matter how long I leave it on, or what I try to do to fix it. 4167mv max
I have a similar issue, it's been like that for a long time for me. What ROM/kernel are you running? It might fix it to completely drain it, charge it powered off, reinstall ROM/kernels when it is completely charged and reset battery.
Sent from my MB860 using xda premium
drain it until it shuts off and then charge it all the way to 100%.
I too was having this issue after going from cm7 week 5, to week 8. I did what others were recommending and charged to what showed 4200mv, pulled the battery while still plugged in, put battery back in then after it showed 5%, turned it back on and Viola, 100% battery. Try it.
its most effective if you know your battery is fully charged, power it down, pull the battery, while the battery is pulled plug it into the power adapter, it will act like its starting to charge, but then instead of having a percentage, it will have a question mark. pull the power, put the battery back in, turn on, wipe battery stats in recovery and run with it...

I just started having this issue and cant wait to try it thanks for the suggestions.
when this happend on mine all i did was keep using it and it fixed itself. i ran it down maybe to 20% before I got to charge it again and it slowly creeped back up to 100%. took about a week.
I've had the problem, and have run the solution more times that I can count. But nothing ever fixes it permanently. Everytime I run the battery low, the levels get all screwy again. Maybe my phone is just worse than everyone else's, but I had to just give up on it. Would love a permanent solution, but so long as I'm running this ROM (CM7), I doubt I'll ever find one.

I'm in the same situation as you are... I had this problem for a long time now (Guess it has something to do with excessive flashing...) and no matter what kind of solution I do (Wipe battery stats via recovery, re-calibrate the battery, pull the battery out while charging and replugging it) it returns after a day or two.
I want to check if it has something to do with the battery or the device, and if I will remember to do so, I will plug my spare battery for several day's run, but that is subjected to me leaving the comfort of my usual laziness....
Would love if there was a permanent solution as well, thou I doubt that too....
I've had the same problem on a number of different roms and at different times. I find that instead of mucking around wiping stats etc, it has always come good eventually for me.

Didn't really understand what you meant, did the battery percentage fixed by itself and gave you 100% at full charge on one day? out of the blue?
Or did you just got used to have less then 100% battery display?

First let the battery completely drain and the phone shut down by it self. Second step is to pull out the battery and leave it out for 10min, after that take a plastic bag and put the battery in it and place it in the freezer for 15min. after this palce the battery again in the mobile. make sure there is no any moisture on the battery. Then charge the phone without power on till 100%.
By following these steps this will made your battery to charge fully and more talk time

Um correct me if I'm wrong anyone, but doesn't cold kill the battery and shorten its life? I remember my mom always putting new batteries in the fridge and them only lasting a couple days compared to the ones left out that lasted a month or so with same use.

Haha, I got a good laugh out of this one -- you've got to be joking.
I've had this problem for a quite a while now with the Atrix and two different batteries. I've tried dozens of combination of resetting the battery stats, running the battery completely down, and powering up without the battery and hot swapping it in. The hot swap definitely allows me to finally recharge to 100%, but once I run it down again, the problem returns. I've learned to just live with the less than 100% reading -- battery still seems to last a full 24 hours for me.

That trick hasn't worked since nicad batteries in the 90s, and is a really bad idea with our Li-PO.
Drain the battery till the phone shuts off, charge back up while the phone is off.
If it still doesn't get to 100%, boot into CWM, wipe battery stats and power off the phone to let it charge again.
^^ I know it works because I've done this like 2 days ago, and many times before that.
I have had this issue as well for a very long time. I've tried the pull out, question mark, 5% thing and it usually only works for one cycle, then the next only goes to 97%, then the next to 93%, then 90%, and it continually goes down until I have to do it again. Hopefully a permanent fix can be found soon. I've tried clearing battery stats, draining it to 0%, then charging it fully. I've tried everything. As far as I'm concerned, there's no fix as of right now.
Thanks man this worked like charm of 100 witches and 100 warlocks having orgy and satin worship

★ATTENTION! I FOUND THE FIX!★
Turn phone off and plug it in to a wall charger. Charge it until your notification light turns green, quickly tap the power button to check battery level. (Usually shows 90%) If the notification light turns on, but the battery indicator is not at 100%, unplug phone, take out battery and put it back in. Now plug your phone. It should be 100% now. For the final fix: go into "Android Recovery" and select "Mounts". Mount Your SD card and Emmc. Finally wipe battery stats. Reboot phone.
This method worked for me. I am 100% sure this is the fix for this problem. This has to be done every time you flash a new rom or when your phone freezes and you screw up calibration by pulling the battery while it is still on. BTW, this is my first post so don't be mean to me!

Hi XDA,
Ive been getting alotta help from you, great developers, and had this question
that dont think has been solved yet. (I searched for 2 days)
So my current situation is;
Im running the latest energy rom (sense 3.0) with stock kernel, (as it was recommended on the post).
After flashing custom roms, beats audio and etc via ADB, i believe my
battery stat display is not normal.
It would take at least 90~120minutes to reach 100% from 99%.
And sometimes even if I have the charger hooked up to the phone
it would still drop to 99% from 100.
I have two batteries (Stock and Anker) and tested them both.
It looks like no matter how long i charge it, as long as i have 100% or 99%
on the battery, it takes around 12minutes and 13seconds screen-on time to drain 10% of the battery. Which it was way less than i expected.
but after dropping around 68~63%, the battery seems to last longer on each
percent points.
On top of that, I think my phone is not charging anymore when I turn to power off. I can feel the phones gone cold and not charging, but the orange light is always on and never turns green for some reason.
So my question is:
IS THERE ANY SOLUTION (LIKE BATTERY CALIBRATION THAT ACTUALLY WORKS?) TO THIS? IVE READ SO MANY THREADS ABOUT THIS BUT NOTHING IS GIVING ANYBODY A CLEAR ANSWER.
I have the same problem as you. I'm on Sense 3.5 RC1.6. Infact I just restarted my amaze in hboot mode and then back into normal. My battery went from 10% to 60%. Then after like 15 minutes of usage it went back down to 10%. Also my battery drains to almost dead at about ~3 hours of screen time with moderate-heavy usage.
have you guys fully charged it ? gone into advanced in Clockworkmod and deleted battery stats?
i havent hacked my amaze but when i had my g2x after every flash i would charge teh battery to 100% then wipe battery stats x2 and then let the battery drain to 0 percent. then it should give you accurate readings
I did that but I used Battery Calibrator app from market. 2 times and discharge to 100%. Also how long should the battery last on average?
I'm runnign stock, it lasts me a day, but depends on usage. I text alot, some calls, twitter facebook, a lot of music, some FML, and some camera lasts me all day, (i charge in the morning so it lasts me a full 24 hour cycle)
Hmm seems as if my battery drains pretty fast. I timed it with medium-low brightness just leaving the screen on, with 3g and music. I get 1% per 3 minutes on. No auto-sync or background data either.
as most of people usually say i should fully drain my battery and charge til 100%,
im doing that right now.
My phone got shut off during my jelly defense stage 13 session
and plugged the phone but it didnt turn on for like 10 minutes.
so i kinda freaked out that the clockworkmod recovery that i have right now
does not support charging when the phone is not awake, but i guess the charging is really slow since i have finally turned on my phone.
im just gonna let it sit on my side table charging, and ill prolly fall asleep..
cuz im definitely not in the mood to watch LeBron James' face tonight.
I will let you guys know.
Thanks.

i hear you.
but after searching several threads about HTC AMAZE's bad battery life,
im slowly being convinced that 3 hours of screen time doesnt sound really that
bad. lol
mine just died around 2 hrs 45 min screen time while the phone was up without a charge for 14 hours. well i guess if i start using the phone nonstop after a full charge, then maybe ill get 3 hours or more.... but still...its only 3 hours...

Once it`s charged make sure you flash 5.5.0.4 recovery. Using the toolkit makes that easy.

Ive been having a weird battery issue. my battery gauge will say its at 15% or whatever it says at the time. ill plug it in and like 10 minutes later it will say 100% battery is fully charged. Obviously its not 100%, even when I charge it overnight, when I unplug it itll be stuck at 100% for like 2 hours then all the sudden drop to like 85%. im lucky if my battery lasts 12 hours now , same thing has happened on different roms. Do I need a new battery?

I'd try a different ROM/Kernel, see if that makes any difference (after clearing batterystats in CWM).
If that wouldn't help, I'd say battery is ze dead.

tried differents and kernels, and wiped battery stats guess my battery is done
try "battery calibration" app. it helps me a lot, and keep my phone running longer. i can last almost a day with medium use.
i have also tested with on screen non-stop (wifi + online game that require wifi, brightness roughly around 30%, medium volume, with whatsapp and talkbox in between), in conclusion, i can run for 4hours plus straight with sufficient battery left. i never push it through, i think i can go for 5 hours if i want to.
battery calibration app can be found in play google store
Worst battery life evah!
Im having issue with my battery as well, I plug it in a electric outlet for about an hour last night and when i saw the charge, it was only like 49%!!!!
And today, before my meeting it was like 22%, after an hour of meeting, BOOM! EMPTY BATT! What I only did was surf and checked my calendar!
It charge slow! And its draining fast!
something happened to my battery before last month, when i charge my fone it says 88% then suddenly after few mins 1 or 2 it become fully charge,but when i unplug my charger it comes back to 88% again, i tried some apps like battery calibration and also i'm wiping the battery stats in cwm everytime i flashed a new rom and it helps my battery charge in normal and accurate level...i'm using also cpu spy to checked if my fone is going to a deep sleep. now my battery lasts for 1day 11hrs with light usage. but for heavy usage i've got 40% after 4hrs of continious hd gaming.
