Battery Light - Nexus 4 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Is there anyway to get a battery light while charging like on cyanogenmod while running stock rom?

I believe lightflow has that feature. https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.rageconsulting.android.lightflow&hl=en

[REQUEST] Turn off low battery light

The annoyance of a flashing red light - which usually comes on for me when I have another 3 hours of battery life remaining. Would love to see it gone. Did a search but found nothing - is this stripped in any of the roms out?

LED me know takes huge amount of current to flash led notifications

I was using LED me know...to customize LED notification on HD2 and since its more reliable also. However as I found out today...LED me know makes the standby battery consumption to around 120mAh constantly when the led is flashed. And it wasn't an odd spike...i checked currentwidget log...it has been like that for more than 2 hours when LED was flashed and after resetting the service..it again came back to usual 3-8mAh.
Is it same for you guys also?

it could simply mean the the led still flashes when its charging. it does not flash for me because i am charging.
edit: i guess you could get a battery widget or something. if it has a notification... it will light up the led. might have to use that led app or have a rom with led functionality built in like aokp does and then assign a color to the battery deal.
I have no notification light when charging either.. maybe that's normal or bug?
use lightflow.

Since most of them are saying while charging there is no notification light .. i guess thats normal .
I have no notification LED on neither when charging. I think this is normal.

Correct...no light when charging. If you want that, get Lightflow from the market. Gives you full control of the light including different colors for different notifications which is absolutely a necessity as far as I'm concerned.
Same here, no light when charging/charged. Would have preferred it slowly flashing when charging, and being constant when charged, so you know to disconnect it when fully charged. Will check out the app mentioned above, but prefer these things from stock as having these various apps running in the background would contribute to battery drain I guess?

I know that by default, this phone does have a charging light. Mine worked right out of the box. But after a few days, it stopped working. I also have a friend who had the same issue. His solution was to also use Light Flow... It crushed his battery life. I'd rather avoid using a third party app and figure out why the stock setting is no longer working.
I think that is what many of you are attempting to do, correct?

I use lightflow and monitor my battery daily. It will not crush your battery life in my experience. Check out the thread in the apps section. The app creator posts there and will help with the app.

Battery Full Alert

Hi Friends,
My device is GT-I9500 stock (non rooted) and I updated to stock Android 5.0.1 . Is there a way I can set some alarm sound when the charging of battery gets full?
I think I can use other Apps, may be like DU Battery or some. But looking for some out-of-box feature that I am missing?
Thanks.
I don't know about touchwiz lollipop but google's lollipop doesn't have anything like this.
Touchwiz kitkat had a notification which told you it was full. And the LED turned green at 100%.
Guess the only way is if you use apps. I use Battery Doctor to control my charging.

Hi GDReaper, Thank you. Yes 4.x was using LED and even the touchwiz lollipop used the green led for the purpose which goes unseen or unattended. So I was looking for a Sound/Alarm solution for this.
I heard about Battery Doctor but looks like so much advertisement, also looked at the DU Battery (not installed yet).
Thank you.
I used both. Didn't like DU.
Maybe with Tasker you can set an alert for when the battery is 100%.
Or there may be some other apps.
Notifications on full charge
Hey Prabhat,
You can try this app out: Battery Zen by Dwarka on the Google Play Store. It is a lightweight app ( Just 1.2 MB ) and provides customizable notifications to you when the battery is fully charged.
Cheers
Dwarka

Device always had battery life problem until flashed with Madsurfer rom and xprivacy

Yeah.
The battery went from 100-98-96 very fast...no matter what rom I tried...I though there was some virus in LeEco rom or something...until device flashed with Madsurfer rom and xprivacy installed.
Still don't know what change but get 18hours and if didn't use a vpn, get a day perhaps after trying out madsurfer rom with xposed and xprivacy. Maybe there is some background virus or unstable process in the rom. Or the device was bugged by the online store...dunno for sure...but battery life improved for sure after.
In xprivacy, have advanced setting to restrict system also turned on and fake data set.
Or maybe after device charged a few times, the battery improved?
Mokee rom is good but still with that rom there was battery problems.

Try "Factory Default"
or "Reinstall the rom as new" from twrp.
I have a problem after install Madsurfer ROM too. But now, i installed stock china 21s ROM and the problem remains. I left phone for charging, after 6 hours it charged about 50%, when i go to sleep it was about 14% and when i woke up it was 68% or something like that. I don't know what's going on. Maybe i should try battery calibration in TWRP?
