Remenber, after flashing, reboot and in recovery, wipe battery stats.

I did a search and looked through the threads, some were similar but none were exactly like mine... which has me worried. also google didn't help... which has me worried
My battery charges, and discharges ( i think) normally. I don't see any problem with the actual usage. But, the battery indicator only updates when it is plugged in or unplugged, or i restart it. while it's running it doesn't update, so i have to guess at the level of battery.
I just bought a "re-certified" one from newegg. it did the latest ICS OTA update immediately after turning it on. It had this problem on stock OTA, but i have since rooted it with ViperMOD (still stock ROM), and the issue is still there.
I have read about battery calibration, deleting battery stats, etc - would these be applicable? how do I actually go about doing it?
Thanks for any info!
I would backup all my data (Using Titanium Backup), backup your ROM then either flash to something new or delete all your data. Obviously you can restore everything once your done but just to see if this is a software or hardware issue.
Have you tried any other battery widget? Does it update in settings -> about tablet -> status and/or settings -> battery?
If not, you should try reflashing like mike suggested.
I have tried "Beautiful Widgets" battery widget, as well as stats - and they all show the same level.
ty, will do. do you have a recommendation for rom? stock like with stability and battery life? no dock...
Android Revolution HD look ok?
thanks again
yeah didn't help. i did a wipe from within CWM, and installed Android Revolution.
Is there anything i can do to wipe to wipe it further, safely? before i go through the process of trying to RMA it.
I am fully charging it and then will reset the battery stats and discharge it, as that's said to be good anyway once in awhile and i don't have anything better to do...
if it comes down to it, how might i unroot before sending this back? i have the image from before flashing, but that was after rooting and installing CWM.
Deleting battery stats won't improve your battery life. It's a MYTH.

The correct way to calibrate your battery is to discharge it 2-3 times after flashing a new rom/kernel.
I accidentally changed a line in build.prop and i guess it was about turning off the phone if the battery was low.
I tried wiping battery stats from recovery, made a clean installation of cm7 after wiping data, cache, dalvik and battery stats but none of it helped.
Is there a solution for this? I charged all night and it just turns off when i unplug.
It's CM7 by the way.
Hi guys, please help me solve this. I am using a stock Asian rom, i have rooted it and installed official touch CWM. i have charged my phone like 5 times already and i have had my phone for 4 days. So today i wanted to check how long my battery lasts so i have charged it to 100% and unplugged it from charger since 11.16 am this morning. You see as long i don't reboot my phone the stats are ok, but after i reboot the stats are reset and show only since boot or the last 3 hours. i can't seem to see the whole history since charged i have attached a screen as you can see it shows 81% but usage is 1h 53mins which is not, as i stated earlier i unplugged my phone from charger since 11.16 am and now its 10.46 pm so around 11 hours and 30 minutes of use. I am thinking now of flashing my rom to fresh state but its a time consuming thing, and i don't want to result to that option.
Update on Status
By the way i found another post suggesting i wipe the battery stats. Since there isn't that option in recovery i did that manually by deleting data/system/batterystats.bin after i fully charged the phone and wiped cache partition, and wipe Dalvik cache.
But after reboot i tried to reboot again and it didn't show my first boot history time, so it's as if the battery history isn't saved or it's reset,
By the way i checked the battery with BetterBatteryStats and it only gives 1 option to view history and thats since boot, but when i did my first boot after deleting batterystats.bin, BetterBatteryStats gave me the option to view since charged and unplugged but not any more.
so far i don't see any other option but to install a fresh stock.
I just got my G2 and decided to root it then flash the cloudy g3 1.2 ROM which went fine. Following that, I installed the Xdabbeb camera mod which caused the phone to enter a bootloop. Because of that, I wiped the system, data, and cache, then reflashed the G3 ROM (with the kitkat baseband).
When I was on TWRP though, it said the battery was on 100% when it was actually on about 60%. So after flashing the ROM and booting it up, the battery percentage showed 100% then started dropping very quickly. I lost 20 percent in half an hour of use.
To do a battery calibration, you must charge the device to 100% and if I do this, it shows the charge at 100% but in reality it isn't. How am I meant to reset the battery stats completely? I don't mind resetting things as I've only just got the phone.
Also would someone mind downloading a battery calibration app and charging the phone to 100% then telling me what the voltage is at 100%?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Is anyone else seeing battery stats reset when restarting their phone? Note that this phenomenon occurs for me even when battery is below 90%. I'm stock unrooted, running MDA89D.
Do u have custom recovery installed?
Nope, I'm completely stock.
