[Q] Battery charging... ROM issue? - Wildfire General

Hi All.
I posted this here because I believe it to be a software issue with my ROM. I am using the Wildpuzzle 8.0.8, OC to 710Mhz with the circlemod. (and very happy with WP I am too!)
The issue, as the title suggests, is with charging. When I use the AC charger all is fine, but charging via the usb never charges above 82%. This was fine before I upgraded the rom and I have has the rom for a couple weeks an AC gets it to 100% in the right time.
I thought it may be the circle mod just reporting it wrong, but several other battery monitor widgets show the same and the notification LED always shows amber. I have had it plugged in USB for 6 hours charging from 25%, and after 2 1/2 hours it gets to 82%, then stays there.
Anyone any idea whats causing this?

we are same,
strange some one say to thats looks like this a bug from ClockWorkMod Recovery.,.
and don't know that people using other rom have this problem too.

Have you tried just wiping the battery stats?

when will we do wipe batt stats? Ex: Full charge and then make it On clockwork on bootloader mode?

Well, for one thing I am glad its not just me. lol.
This does confuse me though. In simplistic (very simplistic) terms the phone charges from a USB. Why should android or HTC care if its from mains, in-car or PC usb? Is it something to do with current?

Phone wont charge over 85%

Hi all.. My Evo Shift 4G seems to have developed a charging issue.. I'm not sure if the phone is not reading the voltage from the battery properly or what.. Basically, my phone will not charge over 85%... In other words -- it never reaches 90%+ on the phone, which would typically cause the charging indicator to change from amber to green.
I've watched what the phone supposedly sees with 'Battery Monitor Widget'. Currently, the phone has been on the AC charger for about 7 hours... The phone reports 77% charged, 32.1 degrees C for the battery, 4024mV. I've watched it during the charge cycles, and when the battery is low, the current is definitely being applied to the battery -- around 500-600 mA. When it gets close to 70%, however, it starts ramping down the current.. Right now, at that 77% level, it is showing 0mA being applied to the charging circuit.
I have 3 batteries -- two HTC original batteries, one about 2 weeks old, the other from March.. I also have a 3rd party battery.. All of the batteries behave the same in MY phone.. If I throw the batteries into a couple of friend's HTC phones (one has a Hero, the other a MyTouch 4G) -- their phones report the charge at 100%.
I also have an external charger -- if I charge the batteries in that fully, my phone shows 85% charge, while my friend's phones will show the batteries at 100%. Likewise, if I put their batteries in my phone once theirs are fully charged, my phone will show it at 85%.
Anyone know how or if I can correct this?
Thanks,
Rick
Have you tried clearing the battery stats and re-calibrating?

I would suggest you do that.
Your phone would have to be rooted though.

It is rooted.. I get the same behavior on CM7 or the rooted OTA 2.3 update by x99..
I've tried clearing the battery stats.. That has not worked.. I believe it comes down to a problem with how my phone is reading the voltage of the battery..
Worked for me...
I had the same problem but the it could charge to 93ish% percent, not 85. I fixed by clearing the battery stats, setting the screen to never go off, and left it on overnight (while I'd been using it all day), recharged it to full while it was off the next morning, and unplugged the charger and reinserted it until when I could plug it in starting with the light green. Following, I turned it on while it was still plugged in, downloaded the battery calibration app from the market, and calibrated it.
Afterwards, I've been able to get the same outrageous battery life that others claimed they got on roms like evervolv and miui, and been able to charge to full. See if this works for you.
Have you tried a different charger? Say if you are using the wall try a usb or if using a usb try a wall. Just a suggestion don't know if it'll work.
EDIT: Looks like I need to follow my own rules and read everything fully. Sorry for the ignorant post it'll prob be no help!

I've tried charging via a number of different chargers:
1) HTC AC Charger (5V/1A)
2) Computer USB (5V 500mA)
3) Palm Pre AC Charger (5V/1A)
4) Palm Pre Car Charger (5V/1A)
5) Aftermarket AC Charger (5V/1A)
I think there may be a problem with CWM. I tired the wipe battery stats a few times (7) and it seems like it didn't do anything. Then I downloaded an app from the market called battery calibration, wiped with the app. I think it actually worked with the app, as my run times went from about 8-9hrs to well over 24. Hope this helps - Viperspike
From what i understand, charge to 100%, turn phone off and charge a little more, reboot, wipe batt stats and unplug. Run all the way down to zero (phone shutdown) and restart one more time (it should immediately turn off) Then plug in the charger, and reboot. Once on the charger make sure it charges uninterrupted until it reaches 100% the first charge.
Thats the problem.. I can never get anywhere near 100% -- 85% is the top.. At that point current drops to 0mA and the charging circuit turns off.
I did send a support request to HTC.. This is their response:
You were having issues with the battery life on your HTC EVO Shift 4G. You mention that you have tried another battery but you cannot get the LED indicator light to turn green or the charge percentage to go above 85%. You state that you have tested your two batteries in a friend’s MyTouch 4G and HTC Hero. Both devices show 100% when there is an indication of a full charge. Unfortunately, there might be another hardware related issue causing this to occur so I would suggest you consider a repair request for your Android device.

[Q] Defy Charging/ Battery Problem

Hi
I have a friends Defy. It was running CM 7.1 RC1.5. Everything was fine for about 5 months. It then stopped charging using the charger (computer charging still worked, although it crawled). I tried a different charger, and another different charger all with the same result.
I then flashed Galnet MIUI Stable-2-9-23-Defy. (Scotland MIUI). Same Problem.
I then flashed back to factory sbf using RSD lite (JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-33-1) and it shows the battery indicator as 100% all the time. No charging happens with the charger, I can mount via usb but no charging indication happens.
The same battery charges in a different phone perfectly. Another battery in this phone gives the same problem.
Im guessing this is a hardware problem now, perhaps a contact between the phone and battery... Not sure tho. Any hints?
maybe it is broken man. seems hardware problem
Seems like a battery stats problem.
Did you calibrate the battery? (with any calibrator from the market), It should help to reset the stats, as it create a new stats file in your SYS.

Strange charging issue with all windows phone roms

Hi guys I have been facing a strange issue whenever I install any windows phone 7 rom no matter what i do the phone refuses to charge using a usb cable or charger if i go back to android same usb and charger work fine for charging please advise
i noticed that too. on my pc it charges either VERY slow or not at all. because i left my hd2 on usb for 2 hours. it was only halfway full. i though i was going crazy good thing im not the only one who noticed this.
on the wall adapter it charges fine.
For me the above mentioned issue exists on all the roms
I think i found a workaround for people having issues while usb charging on wp7
This a bit of a hassle and has to be done everytime u see that the phone is not charging via usb
uninstall the driver for windows phone device from device manager and then connect the phone it will reinstall the driver and the led will turn red if it blinks that means its not charging
If anyone has this issue and needs detailed steps please let me know

I have never heard nor experienced the phone not charging on WP7 on USB. The HD2 takes longer than 2 hours for a full charge if it's at a point of total discharge or close to it. Even on WM 6.5 the HD2 usually takes about 3-4 hrs to fully charge after near total discharge.
Secondly, a blinking LED during charge (whether PC or wall) means your battery and phone are overheated. Overheating happens if you are using the phone while plugged in. Even if blinking it is still charging. Best to unplug until cool..then keep charging and not use the phone.
Buy a second battery and external charger.

Wow thanks a ton for the info
but i have a question if i connect the phone to usb the battery blinks and while connected the battery tool shows battery getting drained as well at the top the battery icon shows that the phone is charging. and then if I immeadeatly connect it to the wall charger the blinking goes away and battery tool shows charging active so what can be the issue any help would be appreciated
Also i have tried almost all windows phone 7 roms and my normal drain is -300 to -500 have tried rom with 5.51 and 5.12.50_02 radio as well along with the camera trick still the battery drain is high
Yesterday i installed wm6.5
task 29
install magldr
clear sd mbr
use last 24 nand
install wp7
booted and did camera trick
entered flight mode
still the drain is -150
I love WP7 and dont wish to go back to android sorry for the long post please help
WP on our Leo doesn't have a clue what its doing with the battery, its been an issue from the start.
best bet to get the most out of your device is to get yourself an external charger and spare battery.
even if you do get it charging via USB or the wall adaptor, it might not charge up the device, it might say its full but is only half full, or it might say it half full and its actually full.
UP! Your advice to bring with me to anywhere a package of batteries?? Jesus Christ, I can't believe that nobody cares much about this problem from devs, otherwise there is no point to make a new rom every single day.

I really don't think its a "nobody cares" situation. We can be pretty confident that if a solution was at all possible it would have been found and implemented by now. The devs do a great job and i for one am blown away by the roms they produce and offer to to us free.
Every smart phone on the market has battery life issues which tells us even the manufacturers cant really get a grip on the issue either.
You could always hack a li poly bat to fit the HD2, of course that's only if you accept the risk it might swell up and catch fire while charging
i dont think kicking the devs and other forum members will make you many freinds.
Good luck

its not about not caring, there are two issues at hand.
the first one is the phone wont charge when turned off, this might be fixable.
the big one is the battery controller, a battery in a phone has a small IC that controls the charge, temps, stats etc. The issue I believe is that the driver which WP users to control the battery controller isn't designed for our device.
The HD2 is similar to the HD7 but it is not the same. The issues we have with it are likely because the driver is either for another device or a basic test driver put together to "make do"
creating a driver isn't a matter of slapping a few files together. So your choices are to
A, give up on the HD2 WP7
B, Make do with what you have
C, Grab a spare battery and external charger
D, Fix the issue yourself, given that some of the most talented folk on here hasn't done this yet suggests this wont be easy!
Flashed 2.12 radio, can't say it's good now, but much better than was with 2.15. I think 2.12 + new battery with bigger capacity (2300) = pretty good solution for now.

If your phone shows only a half charged battery icon after charging for the full few hours, shutdown the phone and reboot. Doing this shows the correct icon and can confirm via battery status app or battery tool app.
The thing is when you flash a new ROM, it takes the battery, phone, and WP a couple of charge/discharge cycles to get sync'd up and show the proper charges. The key is to let the battery drain until close to total discharge (don't let the phone shut off because of battery or you'll be hosed) then charge a couple of cycles.
Getting a spare battery and external charger is always a good suggestion no matter what.
Yes, restarts are always handy to get full charge, if you do kill your battery so you can't boot to windows, try put phone in bootloader, or magldr, it will charge in there, give it 20 min and windows will boot just fine

Should i buy battery, please help?

Hello. I am using b528 rom.

I dont know, maybe it can hardm the software. I did this after minutes of showing "no charging", it stupidly started to charge. For 20 minutes, it is now around %8.
I think my cable has problem because when i move the cable, it disconnects. But my battery is not best i think. I wiped battery stats, fixed permissons. I dont know what to do now. I dont want to buy another battery but i dont know.
Update
I told i used my brother's usb cable and it charged until %8. Then i connnected my usb cable, it showed it was charhging but it was still %8 after 10 minutes so i took of, and then it showed %1. So i think my cable is broken? Now i am charging via ac but phone shows usb charging and it is still %2. Should i countinue or take off ?

Keep it on for atleast 20mins in USB w/o battery in. Then insert battery and charge for about 2 hrs w/o touching. It should be about 5%. Let it charge all night w/ AC.

Hello all, I'm having the same issue with an AT&T Impulse 4G, aka the wonderful Huawei U8800-51... This is running the stock AT&T OTA 2.2 froyo version, never been rooted or messed with.
It won't charge really at all, and I've tried a new battery also. It will boot and run OK when connected via USB, with no battery installed. I've only been able to get it to 12% battery, I did this since I wanted at least 10% charge to do an FDR. It won't last when charging on the AC, I've gotten the battery to around 5% on USB and then powered it off, then plugged it into the wall charger. I've tried both the Huawei OEM charger (1mA) and a replacement charger (650mA).
After a while of being plugged into the wall, the phone won't boot and the red LED just stays lit. I have to remove the battery and plug it in via USB to get it to boot again.
Is there anything in the OS that can go wrong and not let it charge the battery? (even though the screen shows the lightning bolt in the battery icon). I've gotten a battery monitor widget installed from Wifi. Other than that nothing has been installed whatsoever, it's FDR wiped, cleared cache, and the only other thing I've done is surfed the web a few times to verify connectivity after each FDR.
Or do I have a hardware problem? I've used different AC and USB cords, wiggled them a little bit in the port on the phone - it doesn't do anything and it's all the same - it just won't charge.
Or do I need to charge the battery externally somehow to some decent level and then throw it in the phone? Is there anything I can try to do from the basic OS or an app I can try to revive a battery (I have two) and get it to at least charge the battery fully just once so I can mess with it for more than a few minutes at a time?

I don't think the USB port itself is broken, since I don't lose/gain/drop any charge or data transfer by wiggling various cables that I've used.
When plugged into a computer via USB, I can see all the drives on the device fine, including the removable microSD card and I can access files on the microSD card just like any other USB device.
I measured the voltage at the - and + battery terminals on the phone,obviously without the battery installed, I get 0.60 VDC on USB and 0.81 VDC when plugged into several known-good wall chargers (including the OEM Huawei wall charger which says it's a 1 amp charger, and another generic microUSB wall charger which is labeled 650 mA).
So, I can't see how that would charge a 3.7 volt battery - it actually would be draining the battery like a vampire. This is why I think there's something wrong between the USB port and those battery terminals. But I just don't know if it's wiring/board stuff, or the stock Froyo somehow.
I also measured the two batteries I have.... one is at 2.97 VDC and the other at 3.06 VDC, so I assume those are flat dead basically. Both of them are basically brand new. The original battery was an AT&T replacement that my wife got just before she just bought an iphone instead, got sick of this thing.
I will try to get a battery calibration app when I get it back on wifi, it basically only works after I do an FDR and then put a battery in after having it already plugged into USB (otherwise, I get wifi "error"). But I'm really thinking I'm going to have to just disassemble this thing and see if anything is burned/broken/etc. Or does someone just want it on the cheap??

OK, so I bought an external wall charger that charges the battery separately from the phone (and it came with yet again another battery for $7). So I have now 3 good, full batteries.
I rooted it via SuperOneClick, and installed CWM, all thanks to the root guide here on XDA. (thanks!) Everything went fine and the device appeared to function correctly, although as I was doing all this, and setting the phone back up, the battery would go from 75-60-55-50-45-40% in a matter of minutes.
But once I got it done and rooted, I went and got the battery calibration app. Put in a fresh battery at 100& and wiped the stats (I've now done this several times). The battery definitely lasts a good bit longer, but still drops pretty quickly so I will try to find some new ROMs here shortly.
The only thing that is still very strange, is that if I shut the screen off or if it goes off on its own, it will not wake up.... I have to pull the battery and it works fine on reboot. Any ideas?

OPT Charging problems.

Hey guys.
Since one week i have a problem with charging my OPT. I have used the original charger and cable all the times when i charge it during the night. When i connected it to and PC or Power Bank i used a USBC cable from amazon.
Since a few days the charging takes very(and i really mean very) long. Even over night(6-8 h) i get maybe only 50-60% in flight mode. I also tried the charger of my Pollux (~1,5A) also with no satisfying results. Before the unit gets warm during charge, but nowadays it stays cool.
Somebody had the same issues? Can it be the Ressurection rom? ( i am using it since may and it always charged properly)
Somebody has a workaround? or i have to send it in for repair again?
So firstly, you are saying you run a Custom ROM? Looks like battery stats are incorrect. Do to Recovery mod and wipe the battery stats. Also I suggest charge phone to 100% and then wipe battery stats
Try to charge with phone off and report back

I charged the phone all night off. It still is below 50%. I will save all the DATA and will install the latest version of the Rom. Lets see what happens. It seems the phone only takes 500mA. Maybe a USB connection setting is messed up...
Will report back
Hey screamor I had the same issue. I checked the charging speed with the "Ampere" app and it said that I only charge with 10 - 300 Mah , so I tried everything - airplane mode , underclock CPU and charge with phone off but nothing really helped but since I use Benchholds kernel 3.6 my op2 charge with normal speed and also the "Ampere" app says that the loading speed increased to 1300 - 1540 mah
Maybe you should try this also and report back if it helps you too
