running the battery flat is actually bad for the battery.
charge to 100% flash kernel then just use and charge when you normally would.

If you leave ur wirless tethering on while charging, your battery will charge up to 100% and stay 100 even if you take off the charger.
I hope nobody posted this method already
Nice! Ill test that later today

charging it to 100% will shorten the battery's life.
I know but there were many threads about battery not charging up to 100% so I just decided to help a little)

Charging to 100% will not shorten the battery life if any Lithium Ion or lipo battery, but if you discharge past 5% will kill the battery faster. This I know from using the lipo battery's on my big RC Helicopters and that the ESC's have a low voltage cutoff on them to keep from doing damage to the battery. All lipo batterys are built the same so before someone says it is not the same, YES it is!!!

Already posted, and already shown that it doesn't work...battery still only charges to 96-97%
And there is an issue with the firmware in the Nexus S that prevents it from fully charging to 100% (incorrect voltage cutoff level?). This is NOT a deliberate way to "save" battery life.
Charging to 100% does NOT harm the battery or shorten its life in any way. Li-Ion batteries work best and have a longer total battery life when topped up to 100% regularly.

hopefully an OTA will fix these issues.
Does anybody have access to a Moment,Instinct HD, Behold II? Charge your Nexus S to 95% and then put battery in one of these phones and see what battery reading you get.

Doesn't work...sorry.
i believe i heard 2.3.5 will fix this and many other issues we are having.
Another way to fully charge your Nexus S is by switching it off and plug-in it to a wall charger until it finish charging (you will notice that by means of the white battery icon that will show up if you press -just a single touch, do not keep pressing- the power button). Every time I charge my Nexus S this way I get a full 100% battery charge.

ive done this and i never reach 100%. the highest i have gone is 98%.
This is curious. I usually pick my phone in the morning and read some tweets and news before I get up, while the phone is still connected to the charger. When I 1st take it it has about 96-97% but after I use the phone for some time it goes up to 98 or 99%, but never got 100%.
does that 5% really make that much of a difference? maybe it helps the battery to not go to 100%, maybe it doesn't...
but are you really using the battery down to 5% before charging it where it makes that huge of a difference?

guys is better to charge the phone before it is <5% or not?
if you leave the screen on while charging, you can charge it to 100%, i do it a few times a week. as soon as the screen goes off over 95%, it will stop charging, at that point just unplug it, then plug it back in and leave the screen on. itll get to 100%. have patience, itll just takes some time.
Well I decided to do the thing where you charge all the way, turn off, charge again and remove battery stats, my battery wouldn't go above 95% charge even overnight. I decided to drain all the way and then remove battery stats, now it goes to 97%, any ideas? not sure if its just reading wrong or what.
keep reading, there must be over 40 threads about this
It is not reading incorrectly, it's just being honest with you. Please use the search function.

its only supposed to charge to 95-97%. its a feature to help preserve your battery. if you want to see 100%, youll need to bump charge it there or charge the rest of the way with your screen on.

What simms said, watching a couple YouTube videos or anything that uses the processor above light usage will make it charge to 100% but I don't know if that's good for your battery .
As for what I know, on Nexus S the maximum charge is 96%. If you get more charge, it can damage your battery. Most of custom ROMs already have this fixed (when it's 96% it would actually display 100%).

This must be one of the changes for CM9 nightly for the 4G because for the first time yesterday I saw it showed 100% after taking it off the charger.

yup, its only a cosmetic fix. its not a true 100%.
this is normal, the battery charge only 97%. 100% is only cosmetic.
Will it spoil my nexus 10 battery if I charge halfway and stop it, Let say my Nexus 10 left 20% and I charged till 59% and stopped it from charging cause I need to bring it out to work. Will that weaken/spoil my Nexus 10 battery?
Thanks

I thought this was actually the best way to preserve the battery, but between 40% and 80%.

I don't know the consensus at this point, but people say charging all the way to 100% is bad for your battery (and there are many preventive measures in your phone such as discharging a little bit once it reaches true 100%). People also say the battery has a limited number of cycles so dropping it to 0% is also bad. Keeping it around the middle is best.

As long as you don't run it down to 0% and drain it completely, which is pretty hard to do, it should be fine. Li-ion batteries work in terms of charge cycles. You're going to shorten the battery's lifespan the same amount when you use up 100% worth of battery charge, whether it's by going from 100 straight down to 0 and back to 100, or charging and recharging constantly.
What's the best way to recharge and maintain the battery on my S4? Do I let it down to 2% and recharge it fully back to 100%?
As normal, don't deplete it too frequently

Just recharge it normally, you don't have to intentionally deplete it to 2% or something.
Just charge whenever you want

If rooted download Battrry Calibaretion from the play store, charge the phone until you are sure the battary have fully charged lunch the app.
