Every time I use magldr I can't charge my phone. Every time I have to use clk which works perfect. But I do want to try some windows rom but it's hard with only one charge to work with. Anybody run into this?

If you mean when the phone's off, then of course you can't charge in MAGLDR. Didn't you read about it thoroughly before flashing it? It doesn't support cold charging (although judging by the activity in the MAGLDR thread we might be able to look forwards to a new version soon ) so of course you'll have to use cLK to charge it. I personally have found that the battery lasts ages in the bootloader and CWM anyway, so it doesn't matter much.

Charging from an OS has nothing to do with your bootloader.
If you can't charge from within Android, you probably have a problem with your device/OS itself.
A starting point, have you checked your battery pins?
Yeah its a brand new battery. And everything charges perfectly on the clk bootloader. Its weird just curious if I am the only one that cant use magldr at all.

Try charging your phone while it is off until the green led turns on. Then unplug the phone and turn it on. Android should be at 100% (or maybe 99% depending on how much power your phone uses to start up).
You gotta charge to 100% in windows and then boot android

This belongs in question and answers section.
You might be able to fix this by reconditioning your battery,otherwise your battery is just getting old
It could not be getting old I just got it last month

Thats how it is.
cm7 and miui have same problems, and its to save you from over charging, and thats some phones start heating up too much.
Don't worry about it, its for your own phones life.
Ok that's good to know and my phone charge extremely slow and sometime not at all but then I reboot and my battery life goes way up wat is that about
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
Thats because your phone is mis-reading your battery's charges.
a Re-condition would help phone re-read it more accurately, but idk how you'd do that since to re condition you have to charge till' 100% lol.
Will they change rom to make it 100 cuz I don't want to go back to 2.2 rom cm7 is to good

the CM7 your using is not OFFICIAL, so the problems your facing is up to the developer to solve, not the CM team because as far as i know, they haven't even supported CM7 for us fully yet.
it's just how cm7 is reading the battery. on one revision i would get a max of 95% then 97% on another. just recondition the battery after its been plugged in for while after hitting the 97%. worst case is you have to recondition your batter again after you flash another rom or it gets fixed.
Do you know what cm7 version they've used as a base for the vibrant version? The Nexus S does this by default, to protect the battery as others have mentioned.

YOU need to re-condition, YOU can fix it.
the people on MIUI or CM7 can't.
As stated its a known thing.
I used my Samsung Focus to charge a battery to 100 percent put it in my phone and it discharged to 95% then back up 97%. So the phone isnt charging the phone up all the way as it is. This is also good for the life of the battery and the battery will last longer. Also it gives and accurate reading. Sometimes with phones if it says 100 percent it is discharging thus you actually only have <95%.
I fixed the problem I just switched to best rom(trigger) then reconditioned and it charges perfect thanks for the help

This is by design and should occur on all Roms. Below is a link to a good Phandroid article tiled "Your Smartphone's Battery Gauge is Lying to You and its not Such a Bad Thing". It really does an excellent job with a fair amount of data explaining why your battery will only charge to 95 - 97%.
It boils down to three options:
The phone manufacturers essentially have three choices:
1. Use older charging styles which actually maintain a full battery, thereby decreasing its eventual life
2. Use new charging methods and have an accurate battery gauge
3. Use new charging methods and have the inaccurate battery gauge

RECONDITION.
I told you before everytime you flash a different rom, the battery is going to be different, so reconditioning is going to help you make it more accurate reading. brah.

You may need to do it a few times.
But since you are on a 2.2.1 rom... no need to worry, when it tells you its at 97% it's actually at 100, soon when you don't notice going from 1% to 2% will take more than regular time, it'll make up for the 3% somewhere along the lines

Ok so these last couple of days I've been having the strangest problem with my vibrant. The battery litterally sucks it self on the charger. For example, today at 3 in the morning I woke up to find my phone charging at 71% I was like ok good. Woke up at 7 and the phone was completly dead! It looses power on the charger. At first i thought it was the battery so i switched it. And whattya know. Still the same problem. Then i thought it was the usb port since ya know samsungs port sucks ass so j get a new charger and nothing. Let me remind you tthat this is a recent problem. Any body know a fix to this?

Test your charger. Try usb charge from pc. With a different cable to be sure something is not crossed inside.

The battery should not drain like that period not even cm is that bad
Sent from my SGH-T959 using XDA Premium App
My point is nothing to do with rom or phone but rather the charger or cable my be damage and causing short that drains the battery. Hence the suggestion to try other cables and charge methods to eliminate the possibility of this being the culprit.

Does it also fail to charge if the phone is turned off? If it charges while off then perhaps its a software issue after all. If not then the charge/usb port might be bad. How are you charging the battery between posting?

It shows its charging. But it'll go from like 11% to 0% in like 10 mins. And yea it charges with the screen off.

Have you tried to backup and re-flash your phone? Have you tried a battery calibration by wiping the battery stats? My advice *having never encountered that issue* would be to save all your data, make a list of the apps you use regularly and re-flash the phone then manually re-download each app and do not restore anything. if all goes well and it charges like normal then your set and can if you wish restore your old data and/or apps 1 per day till you notice the problem, return if it does.
I did just that. Reflashed a new rom and less drain but its definatly.

My next advice would be to try stock 2.2 for a day or so and see if it has issues. then if its ok try a new stable version of cm7 or miui * different build than previously used* and see if the problem returns.

Ive been thinking of cm7 but the battery life is driving me away. I was able to charge it till like 40% then i unplugged it by accident and I plugged it back in and BOOM battery drain. Its at 0% and will not rise.

If the phone gets hotter than 120° then it wil stop charging and actually dicharge. Make sure your not overcloking or ajything.
My advice on which rom if your not set would be to use trigger. I moved to trigger a long time ago after one of my bionix flashes didnt work quite right and have not looked back yet. I am currently on project v with trigger theme which is a little more like stock but with tweaks than a fully custom rom.
Ok so I got it to charge too 100% overnight and I unplugged it and it went down too 37% instantly. -__- just started working today and this isn't cool. I also left it by a fan so it wasn't hot at all.

In that case I would be sure to flash back to stock clean and then go to a different rom, I suggest Trigger 3.2 very stable in my experience, and charge to 100% and do a battery calibration. Trigger comes with an app to calibrate the battery and be sure its fully charged.

No. Assuming you are having Magldr, it is in fact a feature and not a bug (of Magldr, not the kernel). Magldr cannot charge your phone if it is switched off, and needs Android or Windows to be loaded to charge. So it boots the phone if it detects the charger/ USB when phone is off.
It does not cause any harm. But make sure you do not let your battery go completely dead, if you do then even if Magldr boots the phone the OS may not have enough power to load, leading to a bootloop.

Hope this isn't a dumb question but after the EVO 4G I stepped away from android for a while (worst mistake ever) ....now that I am back I was curious, the way roms and kernels are being developed nowadays do you still need to calibrate battery after flashing new roms??
Never heard of battery calibration on any android phones in the past 2-3years...if ever.
Just let it drain from normal use to 15% then fully charge it.

I know a couple of years back or whenever the EVO was the big cheese you had to calibrate after flashing. Recoveries even had options for wiping battery stats. I just wasnt sure if it was an issue anymore. But thanks!
A battery is a battery. As far as I know its taken care of by hardware that is responsible for charging it.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I337 using xda app-developers app
These phones (Galaxy S models) take care of it themselves. All you do by calibrating is wipe the battery stats, but it won't provide any benefit.
Wow I havent heard anythong about battery callibration since forever ago xD I usually always flash roms on a full battery let them die then full charge for a couple days then start doing the testing of the rom!

I remember reading over in the sgs3 forum about wiping battery stats/ calibration was that it was proved it was all a myth. I'll have to look for it....
Omega v3.0, 3minit framework, kt kernel 2.2 Ghz
Calibrating your battery (or calibrating the software to correctly read your battery's charge) was something that needed to be done on the captivate (SGS1) after installing a new ROM but not on any of the galaxy phones since then. Even then the software would correct itself after a charge or two.
