It's supposed to do that.
It doesn't charge up to 100% to preserve the battery's health, it's designed this way.
If you really want it up to 100%, you can always bump charge it.

Also to note. Bump charging can cause problems, so read that to decide whether or not you want to do it.

It shouldn't hurt the battery.

I bought an 1800 mAh battery and was wondering about swapping between the 1500 and 1800 as needed -- will this mess with the battery stats?
No. Percentage is based on voltage.

Just so that you don't second guess kennyglass123, I second this. I swap between the stock 1500, two 1800s, and one 3500 all the time and have no problems.
Thanks for the info. What does wiping battery stats do then? Is that specific to the rom rather than battery?
Not a heckofa lot. It actually has little to do with battery calibration. Your battery goes from 4.2v which is 100% to 3.7v which is basically 0%.

Yes unless the romor kernel has voltage adjustments or apps to do suc.

I don't think he's talking about cpu voltages, none are that high.
What are you talking about op, clarification please.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium
He's talking about battery voltages, which are normal on a charged phone without load.
On android assitant is reading on battery 4150 -4250 mv. my temps r normal. has going down 3700-3850 mv.
Sent from my GT-I9300 using xda premium

you shouldn't have a problem downloading a 1 or 2gig movie within 30 minutes to an hr, it'll drain your battery half way regardless of kernel though.
If you're worried, you should stop pirating or Johnny Law will be on your rear. jkjk
To answer your question, just use it without connecting to the charger. Also, calibrating the battery is not necessary either.

So draining the battery regularly doesn't hurt it?
So in conclusion connecting the charger hurts the battery?

Keeping your battery at 100% all the time (letting your phone plugged into the charger) is literally the worst thing you could possibly do to the battery besides overheating it.
If you want to get the longest lifespan out of the battery, keep it between 40 and 80% and under 40°C (which is why the N4 starts throttling itself at 38°C)

Of course it will. It's a battery. They only have so many charge cycles. You can always buy another. With a little effort the battery can be swapped out.
That's right anyway I just wanted to know the least way I can damage the battery while downloading. ..do u have a suggestion

I can't give you advice on how to make piracy less damaging to your phone. That's against the rules.

I just had my lawyer answer a ~1800 euro claim for some song that had magically found its way into my torrent downloading software. He charged me 208€.
Don't download pirated media..
He never said he was downloading copyrighted material... plenty of legal Ubuntu torrents available and last time I checked that's not piracy

Guys am talking about not damaging my battery not the phone
Sent from my Nexus 4 using xda app-developers app
Anyway thanks all for your answers
So in conclusion
I should download until the battery drops to 40% and then recharge it
2- never leave the device connected all day

Is any kind of battery training required for the new s4
And how to do so if yes
Sent from my GT-I9500 using xda premium
Nope just use it. I like to wait till it's below 15% to charge it and always leave it charging till its full.
The main thing is not to let it discharge completely.
