Battery Calibration Issue - XPERIA X8 General

Hi,
I'm using Floyo 0.25 and recently i've noticed that my batter will reach about half way or just less than that and then display that it's almost out of charge for a few minutes and then jump back up to normal.
Any ideas what could be causing the calibration to be off like this?

Non-linear battery usage (@99% for 8 hours)

I have a non-urgent but pretty weird and annoying problem with my battery status. After charging (usually overnight), it sticks at 99-100% for most of the day if I barely use it. Once it gets below that, it steadily depletes faster and the last 10% is gone within an hour. The battery life itself is fine, for which I'm grateful! If I barely use my phone it will last four days or so and easily last a single day under heavy use. Strangely, if I reboot my phone, which I do maybe once a week, it suddenly ducks down to a more realistic number; say 50% before rebooting and suddenly it's down to 30% after.
Is there any way to fix the meter to indicate the true state? I can imagine there should be some way to calibrate it or I could even calibrate it manually if that's possible, setting the current 90% to 50% and 50% to 30% or so.
It might be relevant to know that I'm using Dutty's 4.3 Final WM6.1 ROM. Does anyone have experience with this or have ideas to point me in the right direction?
I am
I am using duty holy grail 2.1 win 6.5 with modified icons cab and i find that if it seems to be on a certain percentage for awhile i just soft reset the phone and it will drop 5 or 6 percent and start displaying properly.
My battery is similar although not as extreme. The first half of indicated charge lasts far longer than the last half. Also if i reset my phone the indicated charge will drop by around 20%.
It has done this since i've had it on standard Orange Rom.

I have the same problem!!!!!
Other thing I realized is the radio of my phone is always communication, i know that because if Iput my phone near a sound box (like my sux sound box pc) the box make a noise every 4 seconds, stop 10 sec and starts again...
Some one else saw it happen too?
Same battery probem...
Hi at all.
I have the same problem, the phone stay with aproximatly full percentage for 6-7 hours, but after these hours at hevery call the battery go down fast...
And, during the last 30% of the battery percentage the countdown is very fast....
can be possibile only 2 or 3 short calls, at maximal.
Problem of windows mobile software, or htc hardware...?
The battery meter inside windows have the same problem.
Best regards.

Same issue here.
I believe everyone has it, but as battery life is generally really ok nobody complains.
Same problem here.
When a Battest runs in the background, then is the indicator at 80-100mA but sometimes it goes up to 280 for 20-30 seconds.
I donĀ“t know if there a program which need the battery power or the indicator shows not correct.
I have this Problem since i updated the Radio Rom from 1.12.25.16 to 1.13.25.24.
When i backup the 1.12.25.16 the error is the same.

I've had similar issues after rebooting, particularly after doing something resource intensive like flashing or running a full backup. I think it's caused by a defect in the battery and plan on having Sprint replace my battery.

I had this issue twice already. I was not sure what the cause was. I believe it is a horrible battery bug.
I have this issue to. I went from 46 to 13. I also noticed that the battery meter in the staus bar seems off. While batt stat and gauge say i have 50% the meter looks if i have 80%
I was able to reproduce this bug fairly easily by rebooting while the phone is on the AC Charger while it's really low. I turned it back on and it went to like 50% when it really was at 10%. I unplugged it from the AC and then "Shutdown" not reboot. Turned it back on and it went back to 10%. Yeah just seems like a battery bug.
You dont actually lose that battery life, your phone just doesn't display it correctly. I bet you will be @ 3% for a loooooong time, also if you charge your phone, it will charge a lot faster than normal untill you reach 60% again.

[Q] Surfaceflinger

I just notice after 4.3 update, my battery life suffers a lot. When I check BBS, the main culprit is surfaceflinger. I know its all about the display it shows in the screen but how can it eat almost all the power? Max screen time I get is 2.5 hours. Anyone experiencing it? Last post regarding this says its normal but I have my phone for the longest time but I think the drain is not normal.

Weird Battery Behavior + S Pen Issue

Hello everyone, i just purchased a second hand Note 3 N9005. The phone was bought 1 year ago. Everything is fine except two things.
1) Battery: As soon as i charge the phone battery drops really quick down to 80%. For example it discharges 10%+ or more during night (wifi, mobile data off), if i use the phone it will drop to 80% in a matter of minutes. No obvious reason for the drain in my eyes. As soon as i hit 80% it starts to behave more normally. The more i discharge it the harder it gets to run down the battery ! Last night i was trying to fully discharge it. Battery was down to 1% and it took 45+ minutes of youtube playback to go from 1% to empty !!! Moreover at night if battery is under 80% with 7-8 hours of sleep it won't drop at all. As soon as i plug in the phone it goes from 0% to 15% instantly ! Then it charges normally.
Is this behavior normal ? I mean the no linear discharge. I've had LG G2 before and Nexus 4 and i didn't have this issue.
If this is not normal, is it most likely a damaged battery or could it be phone's fault/ inability to read the battery charge correct?
2) S-Pen. I have noticed that it needs some pressure to work. I've tried Note Pro 12.2 S Pen on the phone and it works with a lot less pressure. I've opened the pen and increased it's sensitivity it got better but still not as comfortable to use like the S-pen from the Note 12.2. Anyone else noticed this ?
Thanks in advance for your time
Are you using the stock charger ?

Yeah i have changed the tip. I even tried a tip from the Note 12.2 pen, same thing. I think it comes down to a sensitivity issue.

Yeah already done that ! No matter how much i increase the sensitivity it never feels the same as the Note 12.2 S Pen ....
Rockfreak I'm also having the same exact problem of the battery, my battery drains from 100% to 82% in less than 25 minutes after that its solwing down, there is a strange thing some certain percentage is hard to be drained easily as some time it takes 10 minutes to drain a certain percentage specifically i can't understand why but I believe for some reason the system is not reading the exact percentage and capacity of the battery.
However, although of the strange battery behavior I'm getting almost 5 and half an hour screen on time no matter how long I'm idle also i never close my 3g connection and it's always connected as H+.
Moreover, i tried to use battery calibration application that doesn't require root access (my N3 is not rooted) when the mobile is in the charger and fully charged notfication appears i restart the mobile without unplugging it from the adapter once it's boot i go to the batter application program and press calibrate then i unplug my mobile.
In this excact period of time i can notice a big difference in the battery behavior and it starts to drain almost normally, anyhow, I'm still getting the same excact screen on time which is around 5 to 5 and half hour, also as soons as the battery reaches 0% or 5% and i charge it again to 100% and get the battery full notification the misbehavior starts again.
I tried alot of things but unfortunately with no luck. So i decided that ignorance is a gift xD

With that amount of screen time i wouldn't be bothered either ....I'm getting 90-120 minutes of screen time maximum in under 1 day usage....thanks for the info though

Stock Pie, Battery Issues!

Issue 1 -
I always fully charge my phone. But, sometimes if I discharge it at a (%) below 100% than it stuck at that (%) for almost 15-20 minutes even after continuously using it and then discharges normally.
Ex :- If I discharge it at 57% and then start using it. So, the battery % will stuck at 57% and will change to 56% after 15-20 minutes or more.
Any solution to this?
Issue 2 -
I am using this device from 2 years but after I moved to stock rom in July 2019. I saw a weird issue i.e. If my battery percentage is 84% and I am using it for 5 minutes. So, now it should change to 83% it changes. But if I press Power Button and lock the device and then unlock the device, then it shows 83%. In simple words, the battery % changes/refreshes/updates immediately when I lock the screen and unlock it. With Screen ON it takes time to change %. My phone gives almost 5-6 hours Screen on Time and I am fine with it. But why these issues exist?
Any solution to this?
PS:- I have calibrated the battery many times, but it doesn't fix these issues.
If you know fix regarding any of these issues, please reply and mention for which "Issue (1/2)" you are telling the fix. ?
