I just put wp7 mango 7740 on last night. I charged my phone overnight, when I woke up it was only at 60%, I rebooted the phone and then it said 100%. I assume its showing the correct percentage now, but if I were to start charging the phone, the percentage would be incorrect unless I reboot it after charging?
should I use this guide to fix the battery status?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=933751
if I dont fix it, how am I suppose to know when to charge the phone and adjust my usage so I get through the day?
Was the led indicator green when you wake up,and battery shows only 60%?

yes. then I rebooted the phone and it showed 100%. I'm getting the percentage from the battery saver in the settings menu.
That happens to me,only i got like 80,85%.I unplug phone and plug it in again on charger,and it gets 100%.Try that,maybe it helps I got 1 day max battery life...

does it go to 100% instantly? or do you have to wait like 30 minutes or something?
I let mine run down to 93%, and plugged it in for about 30 minutes, and its at 100% now and green light is on. maybe I don't have any issue with the battery then, maybe the reboot fixed it? I thought I read that all the hd2 with mango read the battery percentage incorrectly though?
It doesnt go to 100% instantly,it takes some time.Yes Mango have some issues with battery,but i dont know exactly which.As i understand,it don't let battery to fully charge,but not sure...Maybe someone will be able to explain that
One I wish for battery fix. Its the biggest wp7 problem

Hi all,
My Atrix won't charge more than 90%.
Do you have a solution ?
Thank you
goto the market and look for battery calibration, when it hits 90% or so or wont charge more, hit calibrate, then drain it to 0 and charge it back and see what happens, also whats the voltage levels at 90% ?
Thank you for your return,
The voltage is 4.036V at 90%.
I will try and let you know.
Same problem here. Also when charging, the indicator is not working.

The battery thing is a pain in my A$$.. this is what I did to fix it:
1) drain phone 100%
2) charge to full while phone is off
3) while phone was still charging, I pulled the battery, waited for the screen to show a question mark, then I plugged the battery back in. Then it shows the battery as 5% or 10% (YMMV)
4) let it charge again for another 2 hours
5) before turning on; I went into recovery and deleted battery stats, then rebooted
6) phone should be at 100% or close to it, if not, then wait until its at 100%, then calibrate the battery using the app.
NOW ---- after doing all this, my phone seemed fine.. then.... the problem started happening where the phone wouldnt charge to 100, then it wouldnt charge to 95, then it wouldnt charge to 90, then it wouldnt charge to 85..
of course I started freaking out like WTF -- but.. this is what I did to fix it:
I tolerated it. I just kept using my phone, charging when I needed too, etc etc etc. I never let it die completely.. i just kept charging once the phone hit 10% or so (over night mostly, and sometime thruout the day).
Eventually the percentage started creeping back up... slowly.. I noticed after every overnight-recharge, the percentage would climb up by 1. So it would goto 85..86...87.. etc. etc. until it got to 95.
Then over the weekend while I was streaming a movie on a car ride home; the phone died because I ran out of battery, I took it home --- put it on the charger without turning it on... let it charge for an hour or so, when I turned it on the phone was at 80%.
I kept charging it -- and now.. after ALL OF THAT... my phone charges to 100% . EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.
Sorry for the long post -- but this is what I went through to fix my battery. a PAIN IN THE A$$ , but I think eventually your battery will learn to fix itself.
This is from all information I found in these forums, I can't take credit for any of this.
new to the atrix.
I installed the latest oat update, and the phone was @ 70% after charging all night. I also noticed it discharge updates only by 10% increments.
I installed the homepage Rom, and it charged overnight to 93%.
I've applied the battery fix, but that only seems to stabilize the display (I noticed it fluctuating before the fix)
is there a fix? I've done calibrations on phones, but I needed to get 100% and the charge while off. Not sure how I can calibrate if I can't get a full charge while on.
Use recovery to wipe battery stats. If it still fails to display 100% when charged shut the phone off. Take the battery out, then plug the phone in. Wait until the "?" on the battery shows up. Then put the battery in while it is still plugged in. Leave it like that for about 30 mins. When you click the volume button the battery will show only 5-10%, but turn the phone on and it should read 100%.

I'll try that. I already wiped battery a couple times in cwn
OK, then the 2nd part should do the trick. It works for me anyways. Once you do see 100%, wipe batt stats again and let the battery die, then charge while the phone is off. Should fix you up.

You might have to wipe battery stats several times. I had an out of the ordinary calibration problem between flashing roms and had to wipe everything several times before it started working properly. Also note, that charging up to 95%-99%, and unplugging and plugging back in and slowly charging past 95% is common and not a problem. The software is estimating battery charge. And if you do charge past 95% and unplug its ok if it quickly goes back down to 95% and then tapers slowly.
I voided my warranty and your mum.
You have to wait for battery to go beyond 95%.
It takes time but it goes their.
My personal experience.
Just drain the battery til it dies. Then plug it in over night while you sleep. Once you wake up wipe battery stats and everything should be good.

I think he has tried both of these methods. I know I did. What I told him to do was the only thing that worked for me.
OK J, it looks like that fixed it.
Although battery showed 4169, and I saw others with 4200
Thanks issued!
try discharging until the phone shuts off and charging it again without turning it off.

Hmm...battery should show 4203 when fully charged. Mine has actually displayed 4205 a couple of times.

I'm going to try it again. I tried a different rom, and it only went to 92%. I redid the battery pull and Saw 4185.

Hi there,
I'm using P6800 and started experience abnormal on the better.
The battery warning on 15% charge, it will get flat very fast. And when reached 8%, the phone just initiate a shutdown. Had you face this problem?
1 more thing is that when the phone say full charged, once the plug pull off, it show 99%.
Mind is till virgin and unroot...

This is normal, mine is showing the same, but still at 8% upon shut down you can still power it on several times until it reaches 0%.

Mine doesn't do that... If i take my tab off power i have 100% for around 5 to 10 minutes, depending on usage. Also it shuts itself off exactly on 0%. Most of the times I see 0% battery for quite a few minutes before it powers down.
what did you do to make it like that? Rooted?
I'm a rooted stock 3G
My battery stays at 100% for a bit unless i am running some heavy duty processes. However I do also experience the battery going flat very quickly after it goes below 10%. I also found that very odd, and I think it would be at 2% when it initiates the shutdown process.
I would like to hear any thoughts as well on why this might be happening

I didn't do anything to it. Browsing the web on wifi, 3g disabled it goes down to 0% before shutting down. When I play angry birds I can see 0% battery quite a few minutes before it shuts down.
Yes, my device is rooted.

Shutting down on 15% would be normal for a broken battery.
My htc desire shuts down on 2-5% and I thought about sending it for repair. Unfortunately I didn't but now seeing my 7.7 can go down to 0% I think I should have. It is totally not normal for an intact battery to behave like that.
Could you please post how long your battery is lasting on average?
New Galaxy Tab 7.7 Same Battery Issue
I have the same issue with the battery, i tried root and battery calibration; nothing happens. My tablet is brand new it has less than a month.
The battery life is not bad but like other said: Battery get flat after 8%. And its shutdown but you can turn it on several times until you get a complete discharge.
What can i try to solve the problem?. It looks like a bug or software related issue.
Someone has any idea how to fix it?. Thanks!
Does anyone else have a massive battery drain in Kit Kat? I can charge my Nexus to 100% and in an hour or two it's completely dead with blinking red light. I tried restarting to bootloader when it was at 5% but it was still on for like a half hour. Once I restarted my phone, my battery read 0%. I'm thinking it may be time to change the battery if no one else is having this problem.
I suggest you to reset the battery stat from the recovery. The probability that this works are low but is better then nothing.
How do I do that from recovery?
Edit: phone was charged to 98%, rebooted into recovery to see if I could wipe stats in TWRP, rebooted again, phone reads 28%, 3 minutes later it read 66%.

To wipe battery stats in TWRP:
boot into TWRP recovery
/advanced/File Manager/
folder /data/system/
click batterystats.bin
click Delete
reboot system
If you can't see the folder, you need to mount the data folder.
Well I switched to Philz Touch, do I have to do the same thing then?

You should have the wipe battery stat under advanced in your recovery.
The right step to follow are:
1. charging the battery FULLY
2. wipe Battery Stats
3. don't charge the device until the battery still turns off your device because it empty
4. now again FULLY charge without interruption
Wiping battery stats does nothing, see here: http://www.xda-developers.com/andro...-battery-stats-does-not-improve-battery-life/ . Sounds like your battery is borked. May need to send away for repair. Are you still under warranty?

Yeah I figured. Thought it was a KitKat bug at first but then it started getting ridiculous. Phone was at 70%, started taking a photosphere, phone shut off, and when I turned it back on it was at 3%.
No its not. Bought it off Craigslist. Just gonna order a battery off eBay for $18 and replace it myself, see if that fixes anything.
I just got out of a similar problem.
My battery percentage was jumping all over the place.
It would charge fully in about 5 mins, and die in about 20.
Everytime I restarted the phone, it would read a different percent.
I ended up running the phone on full brightness, with like everything turned on to drain the battery all the way down.
& Everytime it would shut off cause it had no battery left, just restart it and keep draining it until when you reboot the phone it no longer turns on(because the battery if fully drained of course).
That's when it is really dead.
Then just charge it to 100%, and keep it charging for about 20 extra minutes once it hits 100%, and now it's back to normal!

That really worked? Any problems with it since and is this a common issue with the N4? For some reason it won't die when it's in the bootloader even though the percentage read 5.
So yesterday it was so dead that it gave me the red blinking light, should I charge it when that happens again and should I leave it off while charging it or turn it on and not touch it?
How many times did you have to do this until it straightened itself out?

I am currently having WakeLock problems, but I do not beleive this was the cause.
I was able to restart it after it died about 4-6 times, till it was fully dead.
Then I charged the phone, and kept it off the whole time.
I installed wakelock detector to make sure that wasn't the problem. I had this problem on the stock rom even before I rooted. So the problem hasn't persisted since?
Hey everyone. So I bought a second hand note 4 recently and have been having battery problems.
I did a full wipe install of CM13 and the battery dropped to 0% at random times and I had to plug it in the charger for the phone to even boot as it would just restart as soon as it turned on. Anyway, i thought this is probably due to faulty battery. I purchased another one and now this one doesn't reboot at random times but seems like the phone keeps reading the battery percentage wrong, sometimes it doesn't charge over certain percent, just gets stuck at 77% or 63% or any percentage really. If I remove the battery and plug it back in, it shows a completely different percentage everytime. I have tried wiping battery stats, do a full discharge/charge, nothing seems to help. Battery drains fairly fast too, once I manage to get it to 100% it shows that expected time is like 2-3hrs if screen on. Thanks!

battery displaying different percentage after u remove it and put it back in is normal i have 3 note4s all do the same (up to 10 percentage change, it either increases or decreases) but the other issues like getting stuck on a certain percentage are not normal make sure u have the genuine battery and try stock rom.
yeah, i tried stock and the same thing really. such a random issue. I just noticed that battery charges once I turn the screen on and use it , so it only gets stuck on random percent only with screen off.

once the battery is charged to 100% it also drops first 10-20% really fast and then it gets better but still I only get around 2hrs screen time

the only way to fix this replace your battery by new one
i tried all options (Format ROM - Wipe battery status - Getting back to stock ROM - Unroot - re Celebrate apps - Changing recovery-Removing battery from device for while sleeping - charge without fast charge - charge via USB)
i asked myself after that all of this headache doesn't worth 20$, i replaced the battery with new one and its working fine now

yeah, i replaced battery as well but it's still the same issue. old one at least charged fully but would randomly reboot on me, the new one doesn't reboot but drains extra fast and doesn't always charge fully. can't believe both batteries are faulty
I am sorry for summoning this old post but did you find any solution to your problem? I have exactly the same experience with my note 4.
Thanks!
Is there a solution for this problem?
Power down and then out-and-in same battery and my stuck-at78%... was 100% when started.
if you having problems with auto restarting.... download the app " WAKE LOCK" and put it on Partial Wake Lock setting... your restarts will be a thing of the past.
