Hi XDA'ers,
I have a small problem regarding for the battery indicator in the status bar.
When i was charging it i notice for 4hr still the indicator charging so i decided to
install a battery widget, and i saw that in the widget it is indicate full, but in the status bar indicator still charging.
And idea how i can solve this problem?
I'm using ICS 4.0.3 full version.
Maybe widget shows information wrong,try installing an app like setxperia by inteks and try to monitor battery life from it.both battery levels shown by phone settings & setxperia is same on my phone with stock ics
i do it already, actually i check my battery it says that battery is in good condition.
i notice also that when my battery is 5% i will charge it and it will appear in the battery widget that it will full charge within 4hrs and then after 4hours it is correct, but in the status bar still charging...
may be i made a mistake in flashing?
Try charging the phone switched off overnight, it will fully charge then take the case off remove the battery with the charger in wait for it to attempt to boot then disconnect the charge replace the battery and boot the phone when it boots you'll see the battery level has dropped connect the charger and let it finish fully chargeing.
All your readings should now match if not you may want to replace the battery

hi mpiekp,
i did already what you told me but still same. now i just went to the SE service centre to check my unit. they said that everything is perfect even the battery is in good condition. they told me that i made a wrong flashingnow i'm trying to re-flash again to see what happens.
The problem you have is not a problem....

Thanks for this gregbradley. but this is not exactly my problem. it is in the indicator from the status bar. it indicates always charging continuously even the battery widget indicator is at full.
Are you sure it's indicating charging and not just being plugged in?

yes dude. when i connect the charger you will see the battery indicator moving in the status bar. but in the battery widget is already full. it's kinda weird isn't?
i found the solution! i will tell to everyone shortly i will just make a compile for this so that if someone have also this problem, well maybe this is also their answer.

it all begins in flashing....
Before this happens, im just looking for an full rom of ICS and i found one in NEO V so i use that one, then using the original kernel. after that i root the phone and make some mod. unfortunately i saw this problem which is the battery indicator.
The solution only is the kernel... hahaha!
I dont know exactly why because im not a hacker or programmer something like that. but i use the nightelf without zram. and all are working perfectly. indicators are 100% working and most of all. from 9am-10:30pm my battery is @ 70% without closing wifi and bluethooth....
maybe someone also have this experience so you can try this kernel...
thanks to night-elf for the kernel...

After I fully charge the phone, and disconnecting it from the power, the battery suddenly drops to 96-97%, it is normal? I already made a battery calibration past week. Even after I upgraded the phone from XXKG2 to XXKG6, still the same problem here. I bought the phone last month. (by the way, it is rooted and I have on it the 2.3.4 stock)
Post some pictures of the battery usage.
And also some of bestbatterystats.
Try this: After you get the "Fully Charged" notification, try not to take it off charging immediately. Leave it on there for about 10 minutes or so and then take it off of charging, you should see it as 100%. If this does not help. Please post some screenshots of your battery usage screen, we can troubleshoot from there.

Tap your finger on graph above and screenshot that.
Did you calibrate your battery, before or after you upgraded to KG6? If you calibrated it before, then you should try calibrating it again.
1. Charge 100% (best way switch your phone off)
2. Run Battery Calibration
3. Drain the battery until it's totally empty.
4. Charge again 100% (best way switch your phone off)
5. Reboot and enjoy

Yes. It's exactly that.
I think maybe batterystats.bin was not removed, I tried to remove it with Battery Calibration app, but I didn't checked if it was or not. Tommorow or on monday I will try to post some stats from Battery Monitor Widget
That does look very much like a non calibrated battery. Try calibrating it as 'Bruaca' mentioned, and you should be getting the correct readings this time around.

I did another calibration, with the device turned off until battery riches 100%, then I turned it on, then I removed the charger, and it was on 100%, I put the charger back, again after 5 minutes I heard the signal, then I went into Root Explorer and deleted the batterystats.bin, and pulled the charger, now I have 100% + 4143mV, it's normal? or should be more mV?
4143mV sounds a little high. Mine is ~3600. Though I'm getting the opposite problem. What might happen is that I'll leave it on overnight and it'll gain 2 or 3 percent of the battery. I started getting problems charging after I installed font changer, which was also weird. Like, it'll take ages to charge to 100%.
Edit: 4143mV sounds about right for a fully charged battery.
hello all
i have a question please
my battery is acting odd
if i charge my phone , and then unplug it ... it will still charge by itself a few points.
for example if i remove the charger at 80% and then leave the phone alone it will charge by itself in the next hour to about 84-85
if i charge to full ... it will show 96% ( which i know is normal ) and then charge to 100 by itself
it does not matter which precent i unplug the charger from it will still do this
i tried different kernels and roms , the problem still shows
using the default battery that came with the phone
any ideas please ?
thanks
easy fix, pull the battery without turning off the phone.
correct one, let the phone drain the battery till it shutdowns itself or until you have like 5%
i already tried to let it drain untill 1-5% and then charge it fully but the same thing happens
Have you tried replacing the battery? or it could be something in the rom that thinks its charging but i wont be! I used to have the same problem. I just flashed my original kernal from the insecure one i was using and it just fixed itself, but if youve already done that..
Have you had any other problems regarding the battery? for example a drop in battery life etc?
then pull the battery till it doesnt lower the fuel gauge if that doesnt works then replace the battery may be damaged as iGeoo said

ok let me explain while the device is turned on and in use you pull the battery and sometimes it will turn back on with a lower read of the fuel gauge (think of pulling the battery of a blackberry lol). after that it should start to give better readings.
also battery can be damaged by just heat and over-recharging it (leaving it connected for a long period of time after it reached its 100% of capacity)

make a test disabling the data/wifi and bluetooth, don't use full brightness in the screen after that use it normally if in those conditions the battery still drains in 3 hours then I dare to say that is something in the hardware of the phone
DONE all of that ! tried everything trust me well i think ive tried everything, im on stock rom now, calibrating my battery again and again till i get 100% after restart, because whenever i charge it charges in like 20 minutes, lets see how i go, sometimes with 30% battery i get 4 hours, sometimes with 100% battery i get 4 hours battery, makes no sense whatsoever.
If u want u can tried to change a new battery

you would never get 100% after restart because the phone uses battery when booting and loading the system.
calibrating if you are talking about the option that erase the file that have the stats of the battery that isn't going to change anything if your phone discharge in x minutes it will still discharge in that same amount of time because that method of calibration is a kind of reset to the %display in the phone nothing else.
if you can. try measuring the mA of the battery after charging it with a tester, then measure it again when the phone display something like 50% of charge it shouldn't vary a lot if the battery is in a good state.
but you in the first post said that you have tried with a new battery and still get the same time. and at the same time say that you have tried the phone with the data off. and get discharged quickly. if that is accurate then your phone have some kind of hardware failure that is making it use more battery than necessary, so you should send it to repair.
ps: also you can check the phone signal if you are in an area with poor reception the phone will use more battery because it will need to use more potency to establish a link with the cell tower.

nope not in an area with poor signal, ok im thinkin its an hardware failure as well, i might need to buy an external charger , my charging port might be screwed up, but like when i let my battery die down a little bit, and then i calibrate when it is at about 40% i then wipe battery stats and restart phone its at 22% and it stayed at 22% all night i didnt put it too charge and i listened to music for about 30 minutes or so, now i dont know what the f*** is going on i love my x10 mini pro, i just want this solved
I sort of got this kind of problem when i was running MiniCM2.2.0. It really buggered up the battery, it would lose about 7 or 8 percent when i was just looking at the lockscreen after powering up my phone.
Sometimes it will just drain like in no time at all, complain that i have to charge it, but when I turn off the phone and restart it, and it will say i'm at 60 percent. sometimes that is true, sometimes not, i only put it on the charger when I'm reasonably sure there is no power left, ie, if after a restart of two or three it will still say i'm under 10%.
So, whenever it runs out of power,do a restart and see how much power you've got left. don't charge it until you're absolutely sure you have to. Still not sure where it leads to, but I don't think i'll get back the battery-endurance i had before., which was about 3 or 4 days on fairly minimal use, without 3g or wifi.
(PS: Don't wipe battery stats until the phone is fully charged. Charging it from just about nothing to 100% in one go and then wiping the stats seems to give me best result.)

hmmmm yes thats like my problem, ive wipe the battery at 100 most the time, and it works, but not well enough at all. ill try that buddy ! thanks and i might have a solution in mind, i think it is our phones charging capability not only the roms fault, cause im at stock now and still same problem, im going to try charge battery externally see where it gets me

yep ive tried different charger and charging through USB. same thing charges to 100% really fast, and comes back down really fast, every single time i restart my phone after it has charged to one hundred percentage drops by 20% until it has come to its real charged percentage i think it is in the hardware of my phone, am i able to connect a bst38 battery to an old nokia to try charge the phone?
hi guys.
my s2's battery thinks she is always charging...and it drains very fast.
to make a workaround on this i have to take off battery and put it again, so it shows "discharging". but it starts right after i put it to charge again, when i took off the charger, it still shows "charging"
any idea? this is fcking me up my battery wont last even 3 hours
obs: already changed Rom, Kernel, but it didnt change anything..
obs2: even when i turn off the phone, it shows that battery icon like when is charging while phone is off. lol

Hey so yesterday my xperia u's battery apperently drained out fully and it wouldnt come on no matter what .. neither did it charge, so i did alot of reading and i saw a post that said keep it on charger for a long time, so i did today
like two hours later i saw that my battery had started to charge but was charging really really slowly.. but anyhow i left it to charge to a 100%
then i disconnected from charger and used the phone and everything was normal .... until when the phone said low battery( it took just 3 hours ) i put it too charge but the phone said it was charging .. (at least the battery icon and the lockscreen said it was) but the device kept giving me the low battery sign until now it the phone shut down and it wont charge again ...
does anyone know a fix for this ?
ps . i am running AOKP rom with transendance kernal and the phone is like one year old now and unlocked bootloader and i used only the adopter and cable provided with the phone
