Was wondering if anyone has a reg hack that allows us to increase the resolution so that the Hermes shows the battery drop by 1% instead of the 10% that we are currently experiencing.
i have the same thing, i think we will have to wait for the next firmware to fix this...

Or maybe there is a Registry Tweak for "fixing" it.
(Who says that this is a bug ? Maybe HTC has intended to show it only in steps of 10% in order not to disclose how fast the 100% are gone ???)
Smart, I was wondering why my batteries doesnt go down! Hope we will get a fix soon.
It may do that to keep from polling the battery too often. So it may be a power saving "feature". just a thought.
Later; Lew
Got the same "feature" too.
I was thought it is a bug, or I have misinstalled something.
Joe
anyone have any idea to change it to 1, 2 or 5% per battery level change??
i have an Eten M600 (which uses the same cpu) and that does the same thing. hmmm, wonder if thats a hardware setting or software?
I wonder if "battery status" which was for the Wizard would work as a today plugin on the TyTN?
Ok tested the "batterystatus" plugin for the Wizard on the TyTN and guess what? Still only in increments of 10% must be something built into the device.
I remember this happened with the BlueAngel with the first roms too, and it was corrected in a later rom upgrade... so i guess it's just a rom issue.
found something !!!
problem is in battdrvr.dll as soon as I have copied this file from Wizard to Hermes and after SR battery status was showing 4%
however my battery was charged 90% but it means that in this file is something
responsible for 10% dropping
but even after coping hermes file (battdrvr.dll) back to it, after SR battery
was showing 4%
after HR everything was like before
Hope it is helpfull for someone.

I can't believe you bumped this thread just to say you can't believe the issue hasn't magically been fixed by someone else's hard work.
Sheesh.
A friend of mine has a Mogul and he is having this issue as well on WM6. Having a Hermes on WM5 and WM6, this has always been the case. Shogunmark and Faria discussed this in a thread at length and tried to port the Wizard driver (which would decrease in incriments of 1%) but to no avail. Its a shame such a good device has such a tedious shortcoming.
We're making a big assumption that pocketpc's that report in 1% increments are truly that accurate. I'm sure they're not. It's also fairly likely that reporting in 10% increments increases battery life not just per charge but also over the life of the battery. This is a pretty good tradeoff, in my opinion. I'd rather have a battery that lasts 3 years than have one that lasts one year, wouldn't you?
This is also one of the more nitpickier of the 'complaints' on the Hermes, even if all other things are equal.

Why? I guess it is quite normal (i.e. not magical) to expect one of the official roms to have it fixed. And I didn't mean to bump the thread. I got my 8525 only a few days ago and I was reading through the posts in the forum and I saw this one and I was surprised that the first post is more than a year old and no solution was found. I thought it was weird so I wanted to leave a post.
Are we happier now?
Crap, still no soln... I hate this 10% decrements!
Someone help pls!!!
Battery drops to 10%
i had the same issue. I bought a new battery and problem went away. Very sad. but on a positive note, I bought a double life extended battery that last 3 days. Buy on ebay for 22 dollars.
Also, you can just take the battery out and put it back in. once in a while, it recognize that your battery is actually full. This is temperary though
I hate this issue too!!
I notice also a little "incompatibility with Baterystatus, when I power on the PPC from sleep, it shows for some seconds the battery level at -1% (!!!)
not only: the shown themperature battery is always too high, never under 48° SIMPLY IMPOSSIBLE
I think that this could be a hardware/software problem, i mean that software could not read the exact parameters of the battery, not only the battery level but also other information
Hope this will help bye

Does anyone else have this problem? My phone will shut down from low battery, but if I reboot it back to windows mobile, it will last the rest of the day off battery power.
I have a third party extended battery, if that makes a difference.
I don't think the current battery level is being measured/reported properly.
I personally haven't had that problem. I wouldn't think having a third party battery would make a difference. As far as I know, the Phone OS has no way of distinguishing a third party battery from an OEM one. But I would agree that it's not measuring your battery level properly.
What build of Android are you using?

Yeah, what he said. The battery driver in our Vogue Android kernel is a hack-job, not an official driver. dzo did what he could to make it as accurate as possible with the Vogue's factory battery, so I can promise you that it will not read an extended battery properly.
I don't know if it will help, but the best battery usage I've noticed has been with Zenulator's xROM build. My phone easily gets over 24 hours with background data and auto-sync enabled.
yes the battery meter is always wrong in android.

It's actually fairly accurate on the vogue with a standard battery. I can't speak for Polaris or Kaiser users... but when my Android reaches zero battery, the phone will reboot into windows, where i promptly get a "low battery" error, and maybe half an hour longer of battery usage. Not perfect, but pretty close.

should of said it's wrong on my vogue!
Where is the code for the battery located? Maybe I can tweak it a bit to match my battery. Either that, or is there a way to disable the automatic shutdown when the battery gets low? I suppose if there isn't, I can hack the battery detection to just report 100% all the time.
So I found this great app that tells me how much life I have left on my battery. I find that with my phone I can hardly go pass 16 hours with MODERATE use yet everyone here is bragging about easily passing 30hrs with HEAVY use. So I'm asking you guys, to please, download this app called BatteryTime Lite and post your pics or info here. Lets compare the results. Remember to set the level to 100% as shown in my pic below..
Also I herd the P/N might be related, mine is 99HKE002-00 F ..Guessing F means Failure.

Thats what I herd too..thats why I'm also calling google a lier about saying this thing lasts 20hours with audio playback.
I'm curious, do they see a big improvement in battery when the display using 15-20% battery or its just numbers that were out a place to begin with?
I have identical figures. That combined with picking the N1 from a list says to me that these are just database figures rather than real world ones for your handset.
Root your phone and then install cyanogenmod and one of the under volted kernels. I usually get 24 - 30 hours battery life.
I just ran a test. I left the mp3 player on all night turn all the way on repeat. SO far after 8hrs of playing I was at 52%. If I'm correct, I just might be able to hit 18hrs...MMMM

No problems at all? no 3g issues?, battery only lasting a day or half? or touch screen issues?
Ok after 100% charge..the app is telling me that my phone will last 10hr:48min with moderate use....anyone thinking that the F on my P/N might mean battery sucker..
i have the exact same numbers as you. if you choose other instead of the phone type it asks you to enter your battery's info so it sounds like it only goes by the type of battery anyway. Not actual usage specific to your phone
My phone ends in an F as well. My battery life SUCKS right now. I have tried everything. The weird thing is it was good until I rooted my phone and applied Cyanogen rom. I've tried .2 and .3 for the Cyan rom's, all with bad battery life. I've tried wiping batterystats, fulling draining battery then recharging, task killer to wipe anything in the background, I even have a 2nd battery. No luck. I've also tried the undervolted kernal, but I didn't really notice a difference with it. (Only tried it for about a day so)
Bottom line though, something is going on. Something (I suspect with Cyan's roms) is killing battery life for some of us. I just wish I could figure out what it is.

Any chance you're using Weatherbug or Weatherbug elite (based on your SS)? After installing weatherbug and using the widget I got absolutely ABYSMAL battery life. I've purchased several other weather widgets and none had the effect that Weatherbug did for some reason. I removed it and battery life is back to normal again (moderate use and plenty of battery at the end of the day).

How long your battery lasts definitely depends on the apps youre using, I use my phone a lot, probably more than the average user, although i dont make many calls. My phone will easily last from when I leave my house around 530am till 11pm or so when I go to bed. I do use a task manager to kill stuff I dont need running every once in a while, I think it really just depends on how you use it. I use it for a lot of texting, surfing and news, and Pandora at work. I use wifi when im at home although ive never noticed it eating my battery. Yesterday I was playing Pandora over bluetooth on 3G for a little over 3 hours and it only took 5% of my battery. Im on Cyanogen 5.0.5.3, if that matters. With all that said I rarely go all day without charging it, I usually plug it in a bit at work and plug it in when I get home, but if I dont for whatever reason it easily lasts my whole day.
Hey DG, here you go:
https://market.android.com/details?...oid.CircleBatteryWidget&feature=search_result
1% battery widget.
Great find.....THANKS
It does display in 1% increments but now I'm wondering how the stock 10% increment system works. My other widget shows 40% when I'm at 39% on this circular widget. If the circular widget is correct, then that brings up the question of when the 10% increments actually change.
my guess is that the widget is cheating and just estimating it until it actually receives the 10% drop. still useful
Just made the "sacrifice" of wasting battery to figure it out. The 10% increment changed from 40 to 30 when the circular widget changed from 35 to 34. Still leaves the option that the circular widget is just estimating, but it could be accurate...
Edit: It's consistent... 25 to 24 was the change from 30 to 20.
Doesn't display in 1% increments on my phone for some reason.
That's weird... can't imagine why it wouldn't work for you as well. Have you tried rebooting?
Off topic: Do you own a B5 S4, EvilEvo?
Back on topic: I've been watching as my battery lowers and it at least appears to be accurate. I'd definitely like to see confirmation on whether or not the hardware is limited to 10% increments.

from what designgears said, it is indeed a hardware limitation. that's why i said the program must be "cheating" and estimating the battery drop depending on use, since it cannot get a proper hardware read.
i use the fancy widget to display the clock and weather but in the setting i also enable it to show battery life as well and it shows by 1% increment.
its a cheater app.. sorta like the abttery calibration that we used to do on the epic...
you charge to full wipe stats let it fully drain then fully charge
then the app knows the rough approximation of the time and keeps track itself instead of relying on the phone/battery to tell it.
thers a few battery apps that behave this way

If you let your battery get below 20%, it starts reading in 5% intervals. Not sure why it would do that and not be able to do that elsewhere.

That's what I'm thinking, or at least wondering about. It seems odd that they would design the hardware to measure in 10% intervals until the last 20%. I can't imagine the ability to do 5% intervals the whole time would be much more complicated or expensive to work into the design.

I think it can be figured out. I'm not knowledgable enough in it, but I would look into however it displays or calculates the battery below 20%.
Hi, I've bought a nexus 4 about a month ago. I works great and the battery life is good enought but i notice that sometimes I connect the charger (when the battery is 40% full for example) and a few minutes later it says it is 100%.
Ofcourse it's not and some minutes later it drops. If I reboot the phone it shows the correct percentaje, but I happens very often.
Somebody has the same issue?
I didn't try to wipe the battery stats because I didnt install a custom recovery. Is there any way to fix it without flashing it?
thanks

Most N4's have some quirky battery stat behaviour. You'll have to learn to live with it, wiping battery stats, or reflashing the stock images, or an alternative ROM, won't do anything to address this.

It's the first thing I noticed about the phone. I've only charged from 0 to 100 in a second once though when I first got the phone, aside from that just the occasional lazy updating of the actual percentage. Stressing the phone a bit tends to help it "catch up" to where it should be.
Edit: you know, it's good OCD therapy, it may help you get past your OCD if you have it.
If you don't have OCD, you certainly will now...

Yes, the same happened to me, the issue is that sometimes I lost track of when it plug it to the charger and after use it the battery drains. It is very annoying.
I will try to charge from 0 to 100 a few times to si if the stats sync with the real battery state...
Thank
I'm getting pretty consistent reading far as 0% - 100% goes (course I drained the battery down to zero twice and charged back up).
What I'm finding that seems rather weird is glitchy mV reading with battery monitor widget pro. It does decrease as the battery decreases as expected, what's unexpected is all the lil spikes upward in it's value over time, like every few mins it'll jump up like from 3995mv to 4040mv or similar jumps as if the widget can't get an accurate reading of the battery's mV level. So it look weird because the only time you would see the mV rising, is if you're charging it.
And I know someone else on this forums with a Nexus 4 that's actually showing positive mA values when he's not even plugged into a charger.
But as far as % reading goes, seems pretty accurate now, just the readings I'm getting from battery monitor widget had me concerned that the battery was bad on my less than a week old Nexus 4. My Nexus 7's history/stats look rock-stable by comparison, kind of wondering if it's an LG thing.

Well this is odd... i think it might be an issue with the -kind of- voltimeter (battery sensor? i dont know how to name it). The battery life is ok up to now but the stats are driving me crazy!

Those of us who look beyond just the % available are easily driven crazy.
But then again because I do, I was able to prove a certain brand of charger was incompatible with my Nexus tablet.

I've noticed that my battery % is off also. Not as bad as jumping up to 100% or anything, but I notice that when charging, the % is 20% higher than the actual battery. It'll say fully charged, but when I reboot the phone it'll say something like 83%. That happens a lot, and not always at '100%'. If I reboot anytime during the charging process, it drops around 20%. I haven't tried to do it right after I connect it, but every time I do actually reboot it happens. Kinda weird. Not even close to a deal-breaker or anything, just a quirk that I wouldn't mind getting fixed.

Well Google support definitely knows this is a big problem. After I explained the exact same issues I was having with the battery indicator being wrong they offered a in warranty replacement right away with no trouble shooting what so ever. Problem was they wanted to authorize my debit card for the full price of a phone plus shipping until they received mine back. Unfortunately I didn't have 230 bucks that I could just have tied up in authorization limbo for 2 weeks. So they transferred me to LG support because they have a return policy where they let you ship the phone back first. LG at first tried to say they only do paid repairs on Nexus 4's and that google is responsible for warranty's, but a little arguing about manufacturer warranty laws in the US and threatening to file a complaint with the FCC they agreed to replace the phone under LG warranty. Again they didn't do any troubleshooting at all. Upon explaining the problem they went right into replacement phone. This leads me to believe there is no easy fix or software problem they can update, but rather a hardware problem.

I have exactly this behavior all of a sudden the last 2 weeks.
I have worse issues....
We had the screen/digitizer replaced after my wife dropped the phone.
The phone now has some issues. It will charge, and operate ok until the battery reaches about 80%.
Then the touch will go crazy, and the phone will turn off.
Upon rebooting, the battery is suddenly at 0%.
I purchased a new battery and installed it. It charged to 100% the first time and the phone lasted for a while.
Then after that it refused to charge at all. Didn't matter how many times I did the power + volume up trick.
I put the original battery back in, and it charges, but of course dies after it reaches 80%.
Same here. Problems after screen replacement month or two ago, not sure that related. Battery went bad. After replacement with a new one (original not chinies) not stable: shows 100% charge then turn off on in 10 min, after powered on again shows 65 % and after 10 minutes plugged in 100% charged.
Driving me crazy... Fully wiped, factory reset all the same. Rooted and wiped battery stats not helped. Very frustrating if some one can suggest one else can be done...
The phone is just fine, powerfull . no reasons to replace
I also developed my battery issue about a month after replacing the screen and digitizer. I'm going to take it apart and clean the connectors and see if that helps, because I'm so annoyed I'm about to buy a new phone.
My guess is that the battery was damaged during the screen/digitizer replacing process. It happened to me recently. No biggie 24 € for a new LG original battery seems pretty cheap and the problem was solved. But why are nowdays batteries somewhat soft??
