Then why do we have apps for calibrating battery such as:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration&feature=related_apps#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEwOSwiY29tLm5lbWEuYmF0dGVyeWNhbGlicmF0aW9uIl0.

I think those calibrate apps only reset the battery stat.

In case of a sudden drop in battery level to 0%, Sony tech service recommends that you fully charge the battery with the wall charger and then remove all power sources to the phone (no battery, no USB cable) for 5 to 10 minutes, return the battery and power up the phone and then recharge back to 100%. If the sudden drop was due to a problem with the power meter, then you should see a drop in battery % when you turn your phone back on.
Google says reseting the battery stats is useless: http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/

hi thanks for suggestions but there is no sudden drop in battery instead it only restarts and the battery level remains same after restart..
also I've tried wiping battery stats and process as said by justmpm it didn't work out...is it an h/w problem or battery issue ?

Are you undervolting? Because a stable setting at full power may not be stable when the battery is depleted.....

I flashed stock ftf file of .587 to confirm that kernal isn't undervolting and still problem exists,

Calibrate it using battery calibration from market, do wipe battery cache before you calibrate.
Fully discharge ur phone, Wipe ur battery cache, charge ur phone, let it alone till full, then calibrate it, use it till fully discharge, then fully charge again.

I think maybe you need to either re-calibrate battery...
or
Clear battery stats, then calibrate...
or
Re-flash, clear battery stats, then calibrate.

I believe your phone problem is related to your battery and I think its gone bad. But before going for a replacement, try to see if any of your pals have X10 and try to replace their phone battery with your's.
Another thing is, if your phone is roooted (Which I believe yes), then reboot into xrecovery, and try to wipe the battery stats. After that once you reboot, see if your phone battery percent shows 88%. If yes, then wait for a few minutes, I would say atleast 30 minutes and see if the battery level is dropping down fast or its staying idle. If its dropping down, then charge it to 100 and then wipe the battery stats again and charge it again (repeat it for like 3 times max).
If its staying idle, then I guess your battery is perfectly normal, try reflashing the ROM... Good luck
Uh..
My phone always turned off when I touch/slide the battery (not took off of it)
Do I need to change the battery ?
Because it is already loosen?
Buy a new battery
Okay then
Thank you

Sony Ericsson Xperia mini battery calibration problem

Hi, all
I have a problem in my SE xperia mini, after rooting with zergrush version 4 and running the script the fixes overheating problem, I got my battery miscalibrated,
the battery indicator goes from 15% to 1% in a second then warning of shutting down,
I have tried the two highest rated battery calibration on market but it gets worse
It started to shut down at 11% then at 15% now at 17%
is there any tool that can fix that problem, please note that I'm running version 4.0.2.a.0.42 and I only rooted the phone without flashing any custom ROMs
thanks a lot in advance
There is no such thing as battery calibration for Android.
That is because batteries do not have any kind of memory effect. NONE AT ALL.
Even this batterystats.bin file doesn't affect anything, it only contains information about what has used battery and how much, only for the battery usage page.
Don't believe me, go check the link in my signature.
why nt try another battery buddy...?

thank you but I don't think it is a hardware issue but I may try that if software solutions failed
ok buddy i also have xperia mini and i faced the overheat problem and i was on v 62 firmware so i downgrade to v 42 then root the phone and used the gscript and
now the phone works fine no problems now you tell me that u have a kind
battery problem so as you said the problem is software and you have 2 possible
solutions :
1- try to unroot your phone
2 - upgrade your phone to v 62 and dont be afraid the overheat problem
wont come back in the new version 62 or any time
try and tell us the results
I have the same problem but I'm getting 52% to 0%.
I tried battery calibration with app and cwm battery wipe. No success.
Read somewhere today that charging battery with the phone off and don't let it charging for a long time can solve the problem.
I'll give it a try.
I have it stock and rooted, no alternative rom instaled.

As I said, there is no such thing as battery calibration.
Also, there is no such thing as too long charging. Charging is stopped via specific onboard circuit, if battery is full so there is no chance of overcharging.

Overheat problem exists in 62 too.What he can do is update over the air (OTA) to 62 to maintain root.

I don't know if changes remain after flashing rom but there is no need to loose root since it's not necessary to unroot for updating.That way he can run the script again if he faces the problem again.
I tried just one time.
I let the phone die with no battery and fully charged it with power off.
Now it's ok again.
Give it a try.

Dear all,
I found a solution for this problem, I hope it will be useful for people that are facing it
after my battery was totally discharged and the phone shut down, I removed the battery ... waited for a while .. then inserted it again ... powered on the phone with charger cabled plugged .. then the phone started to charge normally again 1% 2% 3% ..etc and when it was fully charged I unplugged the charger, it drained normally to 1%
thank you all for your tips.

I have this same problem and i get consistent shut downs at 72% then 53% and every few minutes of usage afterward however this is on my Xperia Play! So perhaps this is a similar issue, I've been needing to solve this for a long time and hope this works! I'll try it asap but I can never seem to fully drain my battery! So I'll just leave the machine for a week and see if it drains! (crosses fingers + Knocks on wood)

Battery acting weird last 10% of battery gives 2hrs of on screen time.Rest 90%= 2.5hr

Guys my battery is acting weird now the last 10% is giving me 2 hrs of on screen time and the first 90% gives only 2.5hrs
The thing is I always used to see that people posting their S2 on screen time of 6hrs and 7hrs of on screen time and then there was me who used to get only 2.5 hrs of on screen time but the thing was i used to charge my phone whenever the battery reaches 10% . From the last two days I'm fully discharging my S2's battery and for my surprise on last 10% i get more 2hrs of on screen time and it last really long .
Is there anyway so that i can calibrate my S2 battery so that it will show correct battery percentage .
if you are using siyah kernel. ising extweak you can reset the battery gauge chip or just go in to recovery and delete the battery stats and recharge your phone to 100% and report if problem still persist

this will get nothing - batterystats.bin is just the Settings > Battery statistics. This is not for recalibration.
If you are not using Siyah just discharge battery, remove it from phone for >3min, put it on, connect to charger and wait till 100%.

battery issue

some question here sir? im using UK official firmware 4.0.4 XWLPY. here's the problem. when i turned on the battery indicator. my battery indicator is not constant. example is. when my battery has 66%and a few minutes later it goes up to 67,68,69%. then later on goes down. is this normal? or hardware problem or battery problem only? thx for your answer.
It's normal just after disconnecting the charger, because it takes the fuel-gage chip some time to adjust the battery percentage. But if you're having this problem even in the middle of a cycle you can try a fuel-gage reset in Extweaks if you are using Siyah or Dori kernel

It's normal. It's your battery calibrating itself.

RE-CALIBRATE your battery THE FAST WAY

most people here are changing ROMs...and most of the time people say that some ROMS are a big battery drainer..
some move to other ROMs because they noticed that the battery performance of the ROM they are using is changing..
this happens because all the records on the way we charge are saved on the battery stats..sometimes our battery meter says the wrong information. that is why we have to calibrate our battery...we usually do this by going to CWM and wipe battery stats..
but are we really doing it the right way?
here is my guide to do this in the proper way:
i know some of you are using battery calibration from them the market, but all it does is just delete battery_stats.bin from system..But the truth is, the system is still writing the old battery stats if it's erased online...So the only solution is to delete it through recovery...
this is what you need to do:
1.Install Battery Monitor Widget from Market for Monitoring
2.Charge your phone to 100%
3.When done, restart your phone, but go to CWM recovery
4.Go to advanced -> Delete Battery Stats
5.Reboot, you should get battery about 90-100% (depending how much margin has been wrongly calculated)
6.Open Battery Monitor Widget to monitor the voltages. the maximum voltage is 4200mV for Li-Poly battery. Try to reach that value before disconnecting the charger.
7.Before the voltage graph getting dropped, Disconnect the charger immediately. for me it is stopped at max 4190. your mileage may vary.
8.You're done, your battery is calibrated..
kind regards,
baiclark
Thanks for the tips

Guys!! Wipe battery stats is havent nothing to do with battery life!! There is only info about battery drain of every app and time of theses app. Also battery stats are wipe every time when you charge battery above 90% so this function in cwm is practicaly useless.

For sudden drops to 0% Sony Service recommends that you charge the phone to 100%, remove the usb cable and the battery for at least 10 minutes. Return the battery to your device, turn the power back on and put your phone back on the usb charger until it hits 100%.
