Hi
My HTC Desire X battery percentage never goes to 100%. After many hours of charging it shows 90-95%. Also the LED never goes green.
Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks so much in advance

just wait a bit more longer.
mine always stuck at 99% when charging for like 10 minutes+ but eventually it will get to 100% charge and the led will turn green.
so just be patience a little more!

I think I was patient enough! I plug it for more than 16 hours but it's not fully charged.
Try another charger, maybe the one you have lost strength.

I try another charger and nothing have been changed. I also remove the battery and put it on the another Desire X and use my own charger, the result was OK, and battery fully charged. So there is no problem with my battery and Charger.
I use a widget that shows battery voltage goes to 4194mv, at this point percentage show the 90%. If I restart my phone percentage goes to 94%!!

Try to calibrate your battery perhaps?

So yeah my x10 turns its screen on after it is done charging but still plugged in, and I can't find the setting to change that anywhere in the settings. I'm using 2.1, any help?
That's normal isn't it, to let you know the phones fully charged, then times out.
The problem is, it doesn't time out, not for 4 hours or so
Actually I have to agree...kind of. It's a SMARTphone... Not very smart to keep on the screen for that long as the screen drains the battery a lot... I can't confirm your statement though as I always charge at night and my screen is off when I wake up in the morning.

But the notification LED stays on after 100% is reached and so charging the battery at night is not an option anymore but the LED with drain the battery...

LED in contrary using very small amount of electricity
If the led drains my battery I will buy another phone, to my knowledge this led is using almost nothing from your battery. I always charge at night, and most of the time it is at 100% in the morning, sometimes 99%..

So i am a recent convert coming from a RAZR and would like to know whats the best way to train the battery. The RAZR was horrible.
What do you mean train it?
I think he means as far as calibrate it from the beginning. Usually when I take a phone outta the box ill let the battery dir from there. No immediate charge. And then ill charge it and let it completely die 3 times. Done that with all my devices in the past few years and usually works like a charm. But when root comes we can add battery tweaks and such. My battery right now isn't too bad, but my EVO 3D was a lil better. I love this frkken phone

The app battery calibration from the market works well too
I have noticed that when looking in the battery usage monitor it seems that the battery hits full charge then drops to 96% and hits full charge again about ten times a night. Kind of bizarre, and probably contributing to the battery life being shorter. Also noticed that the 2750mah battery is read as 2720mah on multiple extended batteries.

Because it stops taking charge when its full. Otherwise you would wake up with little pieces of your rezound all over the room .

Yea. Where you should probably run it down low when for the first few charges. I wouldn't totally kill it. Over about a week you should see a little improvement as it settles

After flashing a Rom you have to calibrate battery by letting it drain fully and then fully recharge so can't be that hurtful. Now letting it sit at 0% for 5 hours is not such a good idea.

Well u can do that yes. Or u can wipe battery status. Or download battery calibrator from the market.

Do most of you guys keep your phones plugged in (charging) as long as you are around a USB port/wall outlet or not? Unless I buy a battery booster, I don't like the thought of my phone being any less than topped off in the event that I can't charge it for a while. I'm aware that the battery can't be over-charged, but keeping it at 100% so much of the time doesn't seem like a good way to treat it. :/
Won't hurt it , people in the office have been doing it forever.

Never let your battery die completely. That puts stress on the battery.

Thats by design to stop it from over charging and to keep the battery fresh.

Every one is quick to say this... But I ask you... By how much? Any hard numbers on that?
My point is... The battery is not going to last forever to begin with. If I get 12 months out of the battery that is 6 months longer than I would have used the device the battery is powering

Everything you do with your phone stresses your battery.
Point being... As reverepats said... For the first few charges its good to drain it down then full charge it back up. Your not hurting the battery in such a way its going to noticeably shorten the life span.
This by the way doesnt do much for the battery itself... More for the OS. The OS compiles statics on usage, etc... This helps the OS "learn" the battery.
Now to counter point I made above...
The OS will also learn the battery over time... By doing cycle charges you are only speeding it up some. I still recommend cycle charging. I try to do it about once a week.
The best way to train/calibrate the battery in my opinion is to charge it till the green notification light comes on with the phone on. Then unplug the charger from the phone and then turn off the phone. Once it is completely off plug it back into the charger and charge it until the green notification light comes on. Then unplug the charger from the phone and then turn on the phone. Once the phone is done booting up and everything is loaded and what not then charge it till the green notification light comes on and then unplug it and you have now successfully trained/calibrated your battery.
I did this with my Rezound when I first got it and when I got my extended battery and the phone lasts me 24-36 hours with moderate use and Juice Defender installed. I hope this helps

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?

Bought new battery, and everything was fine for a few days.
Now it charges to 99% and the LED is always red, it never switches to green to indicate its fully charged like it did before, even with this replacement battery it turned green after fully charging.
Rebooted the phone, no help.
Put in the old battery, it charged to 85% and LED turned green. Ok, so the phone isn't crazy, maybe new batt needs recalibrating or something?
Ideas?

Your battery is in negative state means no power at all it happened with me also, to fix this just plug your device to charger for some time like 20-30 mins it will show no signs of charging but it will charge after 30 min try to switch on your device ?
If nothing work, the last option (before change battery) is try to charge with inverse polarity.
You need to charge the battery without phone with cutted cable. Use inverse polarity...
Red cable (positive) in negative place of battery
Black cable (negative) in positive place of battery.
This for 20 minutes approximate.
Now try to charge with normal polarity (without phone during 30 minutes).
Put your battery in your phone and charge normally.
I repeat, this is the last option before change the battery.
For good maintenance of battery not allow low than 15% or more than 90%

Try with other rom, the led controller for discharged phone is in kernel but in Android is in system I think.
