Battery calculation problem - Galaxy Tab 10.1 General

Hi I looked but couldent find another thread of this but my battery will go from about 40% down to 3% but then as soon as I plug it in it an it charges 1% and goes back up to the % it came down from, it did this on multiple roms along with stock from. Does anyone else have this problem and if so is there a way to fix? Thanks.

You could try to recalibrate your battery.
There's a nice program found in the market called battery calibration by nema.
You should have root acces to use this program.
Good luck

Can anyone upload batterystats.bin??

I have calibrated my battery at 4175mV with calibration app. I let it drain and then charged till 4171mV without any break yet it gives me 1 hour battery life. I have seen in others forums that by replacing batterystats.bin with fully calibrated file, it increases the battery life. So anyone with good battery life and calibrated please upload it for CM7. It is located in data/system. It will help everyone with bad battery life.
PS: I am pretty sure my battery is not faulty one, just not properly calibrated.
Thanks.

after you calibrate battery with app...batterystats.bin gets deleted...so i suggest you to fully discharge battery till phone shuts down...then fill it up to 100%...and then again draining it....your system needs some time to create new batterystats.bin....so for the first 3 cycles it may drain fast...but after that it should get stable...

@friend863 ive got abt same prob... can tell what the maximum battery usage in settings>about
I did those steps and I have batterystats.bin created after calibration. That's why I was asking for file to replace it.

Anyone? If it is successful then you might not need to waste your hours in calibrating instead just replace the file.
Pls upload one file...

Scrap that, looks only replacing is option. So want to know if my battery is in warranty and I want to replace it, will I need to flash stock ROM or I can just hand them only battery not whole phone?

If your phone is not more than 6 months old from buying date.. then your battery is in warranty.
you see service center people are most probably leaned to soo-off an customer complaint so they'll probably looking for problems with your phone or might say battery got damaged and stuff like that..
so on a safe side, go with STOCK firmware and deny any damage done to battery, just say it doesn't give backup and i want a replacement.
cheerio

That s good info I guess if its really a myth.

IMO replacing the batterystats file wont do anygood, as it depends on the battery health and the usage of the original phone...

Battery problems

Hi, i think it was asked before, but couldnt find it anywhere so im posting my problem with battery.
I will start from the beginning:
So i installed kyrillos 10.5 and i noticed, that my battery level goes to 5% it sticks there for about an hour and thought that i should calibrate my battery. I insalled battery calibration app, charged my phone hit the magic button. I waited for the phone to shut down on its own and it was just like before. I charged my phone and than booted it. Everything was ok, but when the pone shut down at 33% when i wasnt expecting it i got worried. So then i booted my phone without charging, it booted and intantly shut down. Booted it again and was at 5% and used it for a hour or so. So what is the problem? What should i do?
Sorry for my bad english

You should buy a new battery or download something from Google Play " Battery Callibration"
i think flashing a roms reduce battery life...
buy a new battery :-?

Low battery life

For the past few weeks i've been noticing a bigger drain of battery than the usual and i don't seem to be figuring out what's going on...
If someone knows any way to increase battery life feel free to post any solution. Thanks in advance

have you been fully charging and fully discharging your phone?
What app did you install? Did you install a new rom? what rom are you on? My guess would be a rouge app. Have a look in the battery usage graph or get spareparts and look at the things that are keeping the phone awake.

I would suggest you download CPU Spy to see if an application is preventing your phone from entering deep sleep mode, for example. You may have a lot of widgets refreshing way too often, as well.

The only widget that refreshs at my home screen is SetCPU, in order to monitor the Temperature, but i will try that app in order to check whats going on thanks.
Ok finally I've managed to see what was the problem that was causing such battery drain/loss... The problem is that i wasnt full charging/discharging, now the battery seems to be working fine. Also I've check cpuspy and nothing is interferindo with the deep sleep.. Thanks for the help

Never fully discharge Li-ion batteries.
But is not fully discharging, under %15 damages battery? And also i put from batter over %95 because after %100, it waits until it drops and again charges if i forget there.

Nexus 7 shutting down in idle state due to battery drain!

Like someone said before it's a rogue app and the only way your going to get the battery drain issue to go away is to figure out which app is doing it and then get rid of it.

I think the best solution for you is to factory reset or re-install android on your device once.
It will be easier than finding out where is the problem. as screen snap shows most of the battery is drained by "android OS".
It was just my opinion you can take it if you want.
My battery usage. Even though my screen on time was only about 2 hrs most of the battery was drained by the screen. So there music be something very wrong in your case.
I don't know about android virus but that might be an option.

Gonna follow along and disable my daydream as well since I'm having the same problem you are with it actually draining while on the charger (Stock ROM, Franco Kernel, OEM wall wart with gold tipped USB cable). Tis quite annoying to have to either keep the screen off or power down completely in order for this bad boy to charge...

[Help] Battery Drain Problem

Hi All,
Everything was ok till the day before yesterday. But suddenly from yesterday I am facing a huge battery drain problem i.e. 1% per minute on my S4. I am running the latest version of Arrow Rom.
I did format everything and reinstall Arrow Rom but no luck. Then I restored my previous Stock CWM backup and again problem is same.
One more thing my phone's battery is taking too much time to full charge. It takes 5 to 6 minutes to charge 1%. Sometimes it takes more than that.Although my phone is only one year old. When Iam using phone for browsing or chatting with charger plugged in its not charging properly its decreasing.
Can anybody tell me what is the problem?

Your battery is more likely to be uncalibrated. Download Battery Calibration from Google Play and follow the steps on how to calibrate it. It requires ROOT. Any other things that can cause this are wakelocks, be careful what kernel you use. You can monitor wakelocks using Wakelock Detector from Google Play.
Or your battery might be a faulty one, check if its swollen

I don´t believe in calibration. It´s a balast...
How old is the battery?? Over one year? Buy new one.
Or try to use Wakelock detector and after results use Greenify

Use power saving mode install stock rom
Auto brightness
Format sd card
Remove unnessesary apps
Stop all unusual apps like google plus hangout and play books etc etc those you don't use.
Disable chrome use dolfin or other's.
If you are using custom kernel or mods like audio mod or performance mods don't use them.
Auto sync off when not needed
If these steps don't work then change the battery
For charging use 2amp charger with a 16amp socket
Use stock usb
Clean your battery's copper area with petrol and also clean your
Usb cable and ports sockets
Hope this will help
And I know my English is not good.
