battery indicator
SysTray. Shows SD, memory and battery data and you can decide which one you want to see in the top left corner. In the notifications its fixed and shows all data at once. I love it!

Battery stats

I unplugged my phone at 630am to go to work today. It is 237pm now. I haven't plugged my phone in all day and my battery stats says 1hr 44min since last plugged in. When I refresh it just changes the seconds. Also there is no where telling me my battery percent. Anyone else seeing this?

Charging percentage

Hello. Last two times I have had a very wrong percentage showing on the lock screen when charging my tablet. Yesterday my lockscreen showed 19% with the charger attached. When I unplugged it my tablet jumped to 98%. Anyone else having this behavior when charging? My tablet is updated with 1.139.05_COM_GEN1.

I think I've seen similar behaviour once, don't remember the numbers but before unplugging the battery % was low, and after unplugging it jumped to full.
As far as I know, when you plug in the charger and screen off the machine. After charging for some times, when you turn on the screen, you need to wait a 'certain period of time' to let the tablet refresh the correct battery % & display to you.
Agree, I think everyone have the same problem. The most accurate is the light indicator of power button. Red mean charging and white mean full charged. Sometime white light indicator but logon screen show charging with percentage. It's because it haven't update yet.

Battery not showing 100% charged

So I have noticed that the battery on the tab does not show fully 100% charged. Every time I charge the tab overnight and I bring up the notification bar the battery only shows 99% charged, this is as soon as I unplug the charger. The tab can not loose 1% charge in the second it takes to disconnect it. I have noticed that this also happens with the original tab and no one could figure out why. What is the deal with this?

Yeah, I've noticed as well, but dont care too much

Because as soon as it loses 1/1000th of a percent, it is no longer 100% charged. So it shows 99%. That's just the way it is.

Battery Draining While Phone is Off

I just got my nexus 4.
Last night I charged the phone completely, disconnected if from charger and turned the phone off.
This morning when I turned it on the battery was drained 15% down to 75%
Does anyone else have this problem?
Defect with phone?
Thanks for help.
You have to let the battery settle and let the battery stats calibrate. The % that you had after rebooting is what you really have. The first time it wadjt showing the right amount.

He said he turned his phone off...
I don't see how it can lose 15% if it is completely shut off. That's weird.

Then when he turned it on, he "lost" 15%. Like I said in my post, what it said before he turned it off was wrong. He didn't really lose 15%. It was just displaying the wrong thing.

You might have some apps running in the background that is preventing your device from going to deep sleep to conserve power. Check what's running in the background when your phone is off. You can use better battery stats app to check what's consuming your battery level.
Are your running a custom kernel? I've heard of a few cases with kernels where even though the phone is sleep and screen off just touching the screen will cause battery drain.

I'm guessing you either meant it was at 85% or drained 25% down to 75
Either way this is common on a lot of phones now due to the way the battery gauge works. When you turn your phone off then on it doesn't always remember where it was so gives a value and then if it's under where it should be it soon recalculates and can either starts going up or stays on the same value for a long time. This has happened on both my old SGS2 and also my N4 for example this morning while my phone was being drained by the FB app keeping GPS on, I turned off location access and then restarted my phone which dropped a few extra % and then sat for a good few hours at that % even though I used my phone.
Moral to the story is don't always take what you see as true, give it time to settle and see how it goes over a few charging cycles.
