ICS battery data usage not avalible

Love love love the new update, but I didn't find anybody talking about not have the battery usage data in the settings-battery section. Mine just keeps saying not available. Anybody else seeing that or is it just me?

Yup same here. I updated early yesterday morning.
My speculation is that ICS uses a different algorithm for calculating battery usage, and it may require more data points... So maybe we are simply not using it long enough.

No, Asus just didn't (yet?) implemented it. It was the same with HoneyComb, battery usage was added very late in the process while Xoom users had it from the beginning. It probably requires a lot of work to get ported or sth.

Are you using the dock?

+1 same probleme, and for me the dock won't charge, but when I plug AC in dock it charge the TF101..? You think it's wrong upgrade or battery breack?

Are you sure the dock isn't charging?
Because there is no dock batt indicator in the ICS update, I check my dock batt level with Dual Battery Widget.
You can try to reflash the update and do a full wipe.
The dock firmware wasn't updated and i guess it's the source of many problems, including the battery status not being available.

Me too and no dock here.

Yep.
It's the same as early honeycomb. Let's play the waiting game

Thanks for the replies guys, helps to know I'm not just doing something wrong.

Yea also here but I don't mind every where I go if have a charger with me so I dont bother but still it's better then have a half working version of ICS then a version thats a little limeted without bugs

Charging battery led ?

Hey. I was wondering if there was some kind of cm7 add on I could flash and have some kind of led light turn on while my phone is charging. I have a funky charger and would like to know if my phone is charging without having to turn on the screen I'm on neutrino 2.6 ee ..-sigh- I wish I new how to code. xD

Theirs an app in the Google Play market that allows for this, as well change the led color. I tried this on my Atrix and it works well.
Not sure why the led isn't already showing that it's charging for you. But try out this app it's called Light Flow Lite - LED Control.
Hope this helps. If not maybe someone else can help you out =).

Light flow..on playstore

I just downloaded it. Next time I put my phone on the charger ill report back on it. Thanks! And yeah. It is kinda strange that it isn't a native feature. I think it is on stock gingerbread

Didn't work for me :/ I turned on all the settings that had to do with charging.

Well its working for me, especially after rebooting. Try rebooting your phone after applying the setting.

I have noticed that mine changes when you get an SMS while charging, but then when you have checked the message the charge led doesn't come back on. But that is on jokersax cm9 not 7.

Here you go this is supposed to do what you asked and a bit extra. Found it buried in the development section.

With every electronic gadget using Lithium-ion batteries nowadays, it doesn't really matter how/when you charge it.
Some would argue to make sure to allow a full discharge from a full charge from a battery calibration point of view, so the battery meter is more accurate. It wouldn't affect the health of the battery itself either way.
Things like memory effect doesn't apply to lithium-ion. How often you charge it and how much you charge it (full or partial charge etc.) doesn't affect it much either. The only 2 things that can potential kill a lithium-ion is high temperature and letting it discharge far too low to the point that it cannot be charged up again. Note that all electronic devices will power off way before it even reaches this threshold.

Read this in a different thread when i was unboxing my nexus 7, i let mine sit for a while on the charger before i turned it on, but it came charged already. So far i have not let my nexus drain to 0% and the battery life on it is great, it can go for a entire day.

I too just got one. May be came out of the box with 4.2. After I signed in I checked for an update manually, and it immediately upgraded to 4.2.1. I then rooted immediately! Battery has been impressive so far.

No luck for me i guess it shows that there is an update it downloads it and boot into recovery attempts to install but then an android robot laying down whit his chest open and a red triangle appears ?

Sounds like it may be a corrupt download. Unless you plan to remain on the stock ROM just unlock/root it and then install what ever ROM you like.

Cm7.2 offline charging

I've flashed cm7.2 of percy and the ported miui rom, the weird problem is the battery keeps charging eventhough i've already removed the charger and after sometime my battery keeps getting higher instead of going down. I think it is on charging state but without the charger attached. I know its not a battery issue coz i've tried reverting back to stuck rom and its solved the problem.. i want to know if this is a cm7.2 bug and if there is a fix for this?

Sleep of Death/Deadlock

So, I have my phone rooted running a modified version of CM10.2. Recently, my phone started going into a "sleep of death" while charging overnight, where the phone is still on but is nonresponsive, requiring me to reboot. So I downloaded Safe Charge and it helped... Kind of. Now instead of going SoD every night, it only does it sometimes.
So, is what I'm experiencing part of the infamous JSS ROM deadlocks I've been hearing about? And is there some way to fix this, or am I just going to have to deal with it until KitKat comes out?

SoD seems to show up randomly... I've heard that JWR ROMs have less SoDs than JSS so you could try one, or if your not into switching ROMs here is an app (free) that could help you. It's called Safe Charge, and the comments say that it works great.

If you read my OP, I already have Safe Charge installed and am still getting sod. I really like the ROM I'm using, but I may just have to switch to avoid this unfortunate issue.

Oops I guess I missed that part... I'm pretty sure that you can find a near similar ROM/kernel setup for JWR... If all else fails, try stock...
(Oh and if you can still RMA it, do it. People have speculated that its a hardware issue...)

No worries. I'm trying out SlimBean because I hear that doesn't have the issues, but not being able to use Franco with it is a bit of a bummer. In fact I haven't yet found a third party kernel that does work with it.

I had this happen to me with a particular rom. Everything was great until id lock the phone, then try to unlock and see nothing but a black screen. I switched roms and it never happened again.
