Anyone know the best way to calibrate the battery on the DHD
Simple, just let the battery completely drain and charge it back to 100%.

This is a nice guide, but how do I go if I have a phone that is not rotated slightly off because it automatically goes into recovery?
It hibernates?

By that, do you mean the fast boot option for the DHD? You can turn it off by going to 'Settings' > 'Applications' > uncheck 'Fast Boot' option. That'll allow you to fully shut down the phone.
No, cwm boots up the phone when the power cord is connected, making it impossible to charge in "offmode".. It's a known bug in cwm, and theres no fix for it as far as I know.

if you want it to stay off, than flash a stock recovery
if you want to calibrate the battery, than don't worry, just do it. It still does what it has to do ; )
This way seems to have improved my battery life...
1) Clear battery stats in CWM Recovery
2) Turn your device ON and Charge the device for 8 hours or more
3) Unplug, power off, remove battery for a few seconds
4) Re insert battery, power on, wait until fully booted, charge until green LED
ok thanks to all

What exactly do you mean by 'battery calibration'? :/
Just try to turn your phone while holding volume button. That works for me.

You cannot charge your battery with your rooted (with unrevoked 3.21) phone. Even i am unable to do it. May be you can try calibrating the battery in an un rooted phone.
Hi i have rooted my wildfire from 2.1 to 2.2 froyo and since i've make this, when i charge with the phone off, the phone freezes: the phone will not turn on and the green led is not seen but only red led which remains on. I am forced to remove the battery every time I turn on the phone after charging.
How can i fix this? I have also tried to flash other radio images, but without success.
Who can help me?
It is a known bug of clockworkmod and there is no fix as of now. This persists even in v3.x

actually try pressing the power button and trackpad button both at the same time, that might turn it on.

Why not turn it on when charging ?
long time ago, when I used a Sony ericson, They claimed that better to turn it on during charging, it's can collect a electricity better than turn it off.
may be not true now.
I have to say this "My wildfire never shows 100% battery even if it is charged more than 10hrs.
Official ROM 2.2.1 !!
I try to root it but I cant create a gold card.
even i have same problem
stock 2.2
battery never charges to 100%
tried factory reset also
battery is fine .. tested by putting it on other phone it charged fine,
and if i restart it shows charged almost 90+ %
help guys...

Did you already try to wipe your battery stats? It's in recovery > wipe > wipe battery stats.
Hi Guys,
Since a few weeks I have a weird problem with my u8800. The first thing I noticed was that the phone didn't charge properly; after a night of charging it would still not be fully charged. I thought it would be the battery that died (tho that would be a bit quick after half a year) so I replaced it with a replacement battery. This battery showed the same behaviour within a few days. Then I replaced the charger for another one; this kept things working for some time but eventually the problem returned. I also tried Wipe Battery Stats to no avail.
What's wrong? I dont't get it. If the phone's on the charger now, the red light is blinking. It doesn't charge beyond 3% so I can never take it off the charger.
I have Aurora ICS since a few months, keeping in pace with updates.
Any help would be very welcome cause this thing makes it impossible to use the phone as a mobile phone..
Install the official android 2.2 and see if the problem persists
Wipe the battery stats (in recovery). Afterwards try to fully reload the battery (even if it keeps blinking red) and keep it on the charger for 1-2 more hours. Then disconnect the charger and do not reload the battery until the phone turns itself off. Charge it fully one more time.
After following this procedure your battery should be fine. If wiping the battery stats in recovery does not work, there should be a program on the market which does the same.
If the procedure does not resolve the problem please send the device in for repair. If the battery charge does not go up to 100% after following the procedure please do the same. This is a hardware error.

Hi,
I wiped battery stats but charging won't go beyond 5%. What is the name of the app you talk about?
FORGET wipe battery stats, everyone knows that is placebo!!

I would do that, but it seems risky on a battery with only 5% accu left. AFAIK you cant do these operations with the usb connection as power source right?

Plug your phone to the charger (not usb) and you shouldn't have problems...
But how do I flash 2.2 without usb connection?
Format sdcard and put update on it with some adapter or go CWM > mounts and storage > USB mount.

Put update file into the sdcard/internal card, plug the phone to the charger, and start the update by simply press Vol+, Vol- and Power.
Simple

Sorry for asking, but is there any clear reason why you guys expect flashing 2.2 might help? I ask because I expect this will cost me quite some time and I am trying to see what my succes chance is.
And, do you think I would be able to go back to Aurora ICS after flashing 2.2? I wouldn't want te be stuck on 2.2..
Thanks!

Because 2.2 is the most stable rom/kernel. This way you can see if the problem is with your actual Aurora, or it's an hardware problem.
And yes, if you flash 2.2 you can go again to 2.3 and then flash Aurora ICS.
And please, read/search a little bit on the forum before placing those questions. Those questions have been answered a million times!

Not everyone knows that, at least I did not. I thought that maybe the ROM just wasn't showing the information correctly and therefore suggested wiping the stats. But if it does not work, forget it.
In this case flashing a different ROM won't help. A battery that cannot be loaded is a hardware defect - there has not been a single report that switching to Android 3 or 4 leads to this problem. The charging of the battery is only hardware-related (if it was software-related you would not be able to charge your phone when it is turned off!) and therefore the only possibility is that the device is defect.

This is wrong as I just explained. The charging process does not depend on Android or any software the OP could modify/change.

As I said, it is one of two: it could be a problem with Aurora installation or an hardware problem.
Install 2.2. If it is a rom problem, it should work right with 2.2 (it could be some kind of problem during the installation that have corrupted some files.)
If it is an hardware problem, it'll continue to have the problem. Simple

Please read once more; I stated why the Aurora installation has nothing to do with this. I cannot explain this better than I already did, but I'll try again if there is something confusing.

I don't have this problem with X5, but I've tried to fix it on a friend's other android model.
The behaviour was similar, the battery never goes to 100 % and can show from 80% 1% after minutes, and phone deactivated.
First I thought that was rom' s problem(had a CM7 custom rom), so I made a full wipe.
Problem doesn' t solved. After I changed the rom with another one(Ligux), but problem still there. Then I tried to charge it with another cable and without to power on. No difference.
So, I've flash the official rom. After that I managed to charge it normally until 100%. And seems that working fine now. The official roms change more things on the device than any custom, and seems that this problem caused from another part of the software which doesn't belong to system or boot.img(these are the parts which custom roms usually replace).
If you read the official PDF file that comes with stock roms it actually specifies that you should REMOVE THE BATTERY and connect it directly via USB while flashing the ROM So 5% charge is not even needed, just remove the battery and flash a stock rom!
OK, somehow the problem spontaneously solved itself and my phone worked fine for some time. But now it's back unfortunately. This time however I saw how it started. I think this is what happens: the battery goes too empty. So the phone crashes because of that (no proper shutdown). Then when putting it on the charger it sees the battery that is too empty as a faulty battery (indicated by the red blinking led, no charging animation visible). The phone won't power on.
There's a trick to get it to turn on though: remove the battery, plug in the power cable and it turns on. As soon as the Huawei logo appears put the battery back in (or a boot loop will happen). Then, there's a chance it will start charging again (though sometimes that only happens after many attempts).
Now the question is, why does it go too empty and is it possible to prevent this?
Hi, all..
I'm having Severe Battery problem with my HTC HD MINI..

If it is really just standing for 1 minute, then it's your battery's problem! But if you've just enlarged the problem, you can calibrate your battery by charging it to 100%, then unplugging, let it drain the charge to 0% and turn off automatically. Try to turn it on without plugging till when it can't get turn on anymore. Then without turning it on, just plug it and charge it again to 100% (The LED goes to green). Then you can turn it on again. This may help!

i tryed that, it did not helped
As stated above it also fails with charger attached, it seams that it also does not see it.
My best guess is that the power monitoring chip is only providing random data to the OS.
So i should replace or remove that chip.
Or simple if possible mod CM to ignore the power status.

Where would I see that?
It feals to be at room temperature when touches.
Also I tryed 2 batteries same problem.
It seams also not to see that it is on a charger, or ratehr it sees it it shows the small thunderbold on the battery for a second or two and than its gone as if the plug ware pulled out but its not.
well I have possibly a solution, when I tape over the middle pin of the battery the phone seems to think that the battery is full all the time.
And wel thats good enough, i ordered an external charger and it should all be fine
