This belongs in question and answers section.
You might be able to fix this by reconditioning your battery,otherwise your battery is just getting old
It could not be getting old I just got it last month

Thats how it is.
cm7 and miui have same problems, and its to save you from over charging, and thats some phones start heating up too much.
Don't worry about it, its for your own phones life.
Ok that's good to know and my phone charge extremely slow and sometime not at all but then I reboot and my battery life goes way up wat is that about
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Thats because your phone is mis-reading your battery's charges.
a Re-condition would help phone re-read it more accurately, but idk how you'd do that since to re condition you have to charge till' 100% lol.
Will they change rom to make it 100 cuz I don't want to go back to 2.2 rom cm7 is to good

the CM7 your using is not OFFICIAL, so the problems your facing is up to the developer to solve, not the CM team because as far as i know, they haven't even supported CM7 for us fully yet.
it's just how cm7 is reading the battery. on one revision i would get a max of 95% then 97% on another. just recondition the battery after its been plugged in for while after hitting the 97%. worst case is you have to recondition your batter again after you flash another rom or it gets fixed.
Do you know what cm7 version they've used as a base for the vibrant version? The Nexus S does this by default, to protect the battery as others have mentioned.

YOU need to re-condition, YOU can fix it.
the people on MIUI or CM7 can't.
As stated its a known thing.
I used my Samsung Focus to charge a battery to 100 percent put it in my phone and it discharged to 95% then back up 97%. So the phone isnt charging the phone up all the way as it is. This is also good for the life of the battery and the battery will last longer. Also it gives and accurate reading. Sometimes with phones if it says 100 percent it is discharging thus you actually only have <95%.
I fixed the problem I just switched to best rom(trigger) then reconditioned and it charges perfect thanks for the help

This is by design and should occur on all Roms. Below is a link to a good Phandroid article tiled "Your Smartphone's Battery Gauge is Lying to You and its not Such a Bad Thing". It really does an excellent job with a fair amount of data explaining why your battery will only charge to 95 - 97%.
It boils down to three options:
The phone manufacturers essentially have three choices:
1. Use older charging styles which actually maintain a full battery, thereby decreasing its eventual life
2. Use new charging methods and have an accurate battery gauge
3. Use new charging methods and have the inaccurate battery gauge

RECONDITION.
I told you before everytime you flash a different rom, the battery is going to be different, so reconditioning is going to help you make it more accurate reading. brah.
I did I fully charge then wiped then drained recharge then wipe

You may need to do it a few times.
But since you are on a 2.2.1 rom... no need to worry, when it tells you its at 97% it's actually at 100, soon when you don't notice going from 1% to 2% will take more than regular time, it'll make up for the 3% somewhere along the lines
Ok ill let u know the results of this second try and do I have to recharge when phone off

Could be me but it seem like the battery drains faster with this rom Is anyone else noticing this?

I'd say it's similar to the other gingerbread leaks. Nothing as great as SRF 1.2 for battery life yet that I have come across.
Froyo had source to optimize, but you still should get good battery, you did calibrate right?

10 hours since flashing and at 49% now. (Started at 100%) Pretty good if you ask me.
I am getting random reboots and force closes. This sucks. Don't know what's wrong.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Srf was good for me too, but the best battery life I have seen is with marcusant's i3 rom. Haven't tried the new leak yet. Probably wait til acs does their thing with it.

Did you restore data? I have used it all day and have not had one force close. Try to Odin again and if you restored data do it without restoring data.
RE: force closes, usually it means you restored apps or data that need to be reinstalled. If an app FCs, uninstall and reinstall it.
RE: battery life.
You can't make a judgement until you run a calibrate cycle and go through at least one charge cycle. Usually the first battery cycle on a new rom seems like really battery life, then things improve quickly. Since the rom has only been leaked for about 18 hours now I don't think anyone can give a useful opinion on battery life.

I just flashed from midnight 5.3 and everything is running a-ok here. Try wiping the unneeded files from your sd card and delete the default android files before reinserting your sd card into a newly flashed eg22 rom.

I flashed it at around 10am this morning, and with some pretty good, but not heavy use, I made it to about 6pm. When flashing this morning, I was around 92%. So yes, battery life is pretty good. Nothing will beat SRF, but now that I've tasted the gingerbread, I'm not sure I can go back to Froyo.
*Edit* Since being off the charger for 4 hours, and surfing the internet on both 3g and 4g, chatting on gtalk, multiple text messages, I'm at 76%. I'm impressed.

Hey guys what controls the led notification? I searched for some thing in init.d and build.prop, but cant find it.currently i am beta testing my rom, moded from hyperdroid 5.8 and with flikerts latest kernal. I got this prob.
My notification led is always blinking in 2 sec intervel. First red, then green, then aftr 2 sec, the cycle repeats. It turns to red when i plug in charger, turns to green when full, as normal, but i cant figure it out wht is causing the blink, even if i have no notifications.

Hey. I was wondering if there was some kind of cm7 add on I could flash and have some kind of led light turn on while my phone is charging. I have a funky charger and would like to know if my phone is charging without having to turn on the screen I'm on neutrino 2.6 ee ..-sigh- I wish I new how to code. xD

Theirs an app in the Google Play market that allows for this, as well change the led color. I tried this on my Atrix and it works well.
Not sure why the led isn't already showing that it's charging for you. But try out this app it's called Light Flow Lite - LED Control.
Hope this helps. If not maybe someone else can help you out =).
Light flow..on playstore

Just show you know, battery calibration is a placebo. It's a waste of time. Just flash at 100% and call it good.

CM 7 with darkside kernel aosp by derek jay gets me wicked good battery life. I can easily get 2 days on lite use or 24 hours on heavy use. I don't play games just browse make calls and text a lot. I would go to another rom but I need stability and working wifi calling. No matter how hard I try I can't say no to my MyTouch 4G. Already replaced a cracked screen and now replacing the keypad for a broken and now missing home key.
try vipertouch, its not bad with battery life and maybe you will like it
