Just wanted to share a funny screenshot I have taken a while ago while using a JB/ICS rom (Can't really remember which), the screenshot is of the battery status in settings showing some seriously odd info (BTW, I haven't charged the mobile at all during this):

Dafuq? That's the weirdest I have ever seen!!!

Not at this scale though!

Nah, didn't switch battery nor charged it, I simply unlocked my phone to find it at 0% and shutting down, when it turned off I tried holding the power button again (because I was sure it was charged) and then it turned on with 1% and then kept increasing till it reached the flat level and then proceeded to decrease again!

The battery works perfectly normal now, and during that day it continued to work normally after it reached the flat level (it decreased as usual after this). I know, it's crazy!
mine did that too. till 13% to 94%. I removed the battery and put it back in.
I guess sometimes the battery sensor goes cuckoo haha.
Even my battery on ICS increases sometimes

we use a lithium ion battery and so when sometimes u just keep your mobile stable for 15 mins the ions generate itself and the battery increases
I have seen my battery from 76 to 85 (in 1.5 hrs )

I have tried this trick and it works on my SG Ace:
1. Open your phone and charge it for 7-8 hours.
2. Shut off your phone, wait for at least 2 minutes and charge it again for 1 hour.
3. Turn on your phone and wait for at least 2 minutes and charge it for 1hour.
You will notice an improvement on the life and capacity of your battery.
Hope this will help.

Open....?? Startup or unscrew???

It is called Bump Charging.

You can use a diferent kernel.. BlackHawk dont need to Bump Charging, verify this pic:

Before i using The Ace Kernel Beta 3, but the carger of battery no work's like i want, and i reflash BlackHawk Kernel by Ketut. (Thks Ketut).
In pic, at 01:28 i reflash BlackHawk Kernel, before i'm using The Ace Kernel Beta 3.
does it really improve the battery?
"Perform shallow discharges. Instead of discharging to 0% all the time, lithium-ion batteries do best when you discharge them for a little bit, then charge them for a little bit. The table at the right, from Battery University, shows that discharges to 50% are better for your battery's long-term life than, say, small discharges to 90% or large discharges to 0% (since the 50% discharges provide the best number of cycles-to-usage ratio)."

So as the title say. Battery dropped from 50 to 17 percent after a normal restart. And it wouldnt go back up.
What is happening??
Thanks guys

charge ur phone to 100% then try resetting the Fuel gauge chip in extweaks then reboot ur phone and wait for a cpl of hrs then ur batt starts showing near correct %
Full batt charging and reboot is not necessary. Simply go to ExTweaks, reset fuel gauge chip and wait few hours. Your battery percentage will increase.

I am having the same problem but apparently Extweaks doesn't work with my kernel.
Is there another solution?

Charge your phone untill you're sure that it reached 100%. Turn of your phone, remove the battery for a minute, put it back in and reboot your phone again.

I've been experiencing the same problem with my SGS2's battery and noticed that it is getting bloated. I purchased a new one to prevent severe damage on my mobile phone.

Where did you getthe battery? Can you pm me the link?
So, I'm using the newest stable release of CM9 with Siyah kernel and my battery life is terrible. Not even using the phone for an hour, eight hours of standby, and it's already down to 30%. Any solutions?

Most battery drain issues are user related, check your apps with Better Battery Stats and install cpu spy for sleep time of the cpu. Might be some rogue stampeding apps/widgets on your phone
As you can see on attachments, my battery stats are equal... my awake time is very high, and i have better battery stats installed, it says my cpu time are 90% into 200mhz mode, but as you can see 15% with 13h of usage... but doesn't show any application draining my battery...
Anyone know how to trace this correctly?
Battery probs
Hi mate! Its mi first post i hope they will be no errors!.
I had the same prob as u and i did this:
1-Install ---> Battery Calibrator ( root need ) from googleplaystore.
2-Charge it to 100% REBOOT YOUR PHONE (program dont say a thing about this
3- Press button , all your battery stats will be correct now
4- If u continue having this probs you have to Re-boot your ROM and do all this steps with 3 wipes

You are using siyah?
Make your cpu 1200-200 or 1000-200
Overvoltage 50
And you will see the difference.

I found that Friendcaster for Facebook was giving me wakelocks. BetterBatteryStats is a must-have.
I got 75% battery drain from the screen is that normal..
Yes and no. Screen drains most battery. I use low brightness so screen usage is 35-40% for me.
International S III 16GB / Dualboot 4.1.2 Stock & Cyanogenmod 10.1 / Gokhan's SK
yes it's little more than me but it's normal don't worry

It's hard to say
I will try to explain it with my bad English.
Assume battery capacity is 2000 mAh (I know it's 2100, 2000 is easier to calculate )
you use it down to 50% which means 1000 mAh, and screen took 800 mAh, so let's say, screen took 80% battery within this 1000 mAh.
And then you put it in stand by for few hours for example let's say 5 hours and it took 1% for hour, so 5% in total
After alll, battery has been drained 55%, means , 2000 * 0.55 is 1100 mAh, within this 1100 mAh, screen used 1000 mAh according to previous calculation, so, after 5 hours of stand by, screen usage should be from 80% down to (800/1100) = 72%.
So, if your screen battery usage is high and you stop screen on, with time passing on, it should be decrease screen battery usage percentage.
Alright, I don't know what I am talking about...

I play a lot on this phone so I would love over 3 hours of play time if possible.

If you have the root try use a battery caliber from play store...
if not full discharge the battery 1% ok too
turn off the phone and full charge for 3 hours
this will increase the battery life

This was after battery calibration, I have done the fully drain and charge a few times before trying to fix this issue but still happening. Don't know if the power spike drops are because a wrongly calibrated battery or a bad battery, this happens on any rom btw, currently running Slimbean 2.2
Sent from my XT910 using Tapatalk
That seems pretty bad...I would suggest that you may need a new battery. However, my phone is older than yours and is still doing well so idk.
This is my battery life after fresh install of slimkat 2.3 with jbx kernel 2.1.5 have you tried to use a charging app such as DU battery saver? link here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.dianxinos.dxbs

Problem doesn't seem to be the battery life, is the spike drops that bother me, if those didn't existed battery would last 1/3 more.
Already tried DU before, spikes still happen and battery saving are minimal since this apps help when the phone is no in use.
