How would I go about manually updating it? I believe it is running on the stock software and causing excess battery drain. The reason I don't believe it is updated is because I reformatted my device then rooted and Magisk immediately, before I even plugged the adaptor in.
Before formatting (with the DAC update installed) it would not keep my phone awake at night. Now using BBS I see it keeping my phone active all night.
To test I was sure to unplug it at night and voila, my phone only goes down 1 or 2 percent over 9 hours.
Please help.

Anyone have a battery issue with their X5?
I've had the same issue with a few different roms (133 to start with 136 now running 160) and all had the same problem I believe.
After charging to 100% i'll notice for the rest of the day it will use up the battery very quickly and the running time in the battery monitor will be 100% of the uptime.
If i reboot the phone after charging running time will be more normal, say 10/20% or so over a day (will be down to maybe 80% charge after say 6 or 7 hours, but if I dont reboot it will easily be down to 40% or so at the same time)
I've noticed while googling that some Mot DroidX users have exactly the same issue? Having to reboot after charging to fix the problem.
Done all the usual check, turned off wifi/bluetooth/screendimmed etc etc etc checked running apps etc, but it only happens after 100% charge (can plug in and charge for a few minutes, unplug and running time doesnt go up)
weird problem.
Sounds to me you got a defective battery, I recommend you hand over it and get a new one !

This is mentioned in my post

But I don't believe it has any thing to do with charging, its just a certain amount of time after you've unplugged it it happens, maybe 1 hour, maybe 5. But it doesn't seem to matter if you've restarted it after unplugging it, all that seems to do its reset the amount of time before it breaks. Then you restart it again.
Im currently using B137 (Android 2.2.2), and am not experiencing the this issue (although I seemed to be experiencing it with all previous roms except U8800H B136(But that has extremely high 3g battery drain))

As soon as I unplug i'll monitor the battery run time and it will constantly stay at 100%, even if i check 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30/60 minutes after the screens off.
If I reboot straight away after unplugging the phone will be perfect for the rest of the day, will never go very high in runtime, running apps, wifi, bluetooth everything during the day perfectly without burning through battery.
Its not a battery problem as its fine as long as you reboot, there must be something in the code somewhere that does something when it reaches 100% charge and doesnt shutdown after? some sort of charge notifier maybe?
Must be a code problem because how come Droid users would be having exactly the same issue when unplugging after a full charge?
Same problem randomly here too. Sometimes after unplugging it is stuck on running 100% and nothing seems to help exept reboot. I've tried switching on/off wifi/bt/gps etc. and killing all possible apps/services but it just doesn't sleep if not rebooted.
Strangely it doesn't happen every time after charging. I always have the phone plugged in overnight and usually have 5 or 6 days uptime before this problem occurs and I have to restart it.
Running B160 rom, clocked @ 1209 Mhz.
These issues started up when I was on slimbean ROM and franco kernel r102, but I don't think its a software issue. My phone would randomly reboot at around 70% battery and sometimes around 20-40%, and when it would restart it would show 5-10% battery and sometimes wouldn't start because the battery was completely dead. I recalibrated the battery by removing the battery bin file after a full charge and did all the necessary steps to do it over and over again. When that didn't work I did a full wipe and flashed stock factory image. I even recalibrated battery again, and now the phone shut off over night (5 hours in according to the battery stats), and when i turned the phone on again it showed 10%. I'm scared my charger sometime down the line messed with the micro usb port and shorted my battery or something.....whats even freaking weirder is that I would have auto rotation screen issues where when I would plug my phone to charge, auto rotate wouldn't work even if i enabled it, then would start working again randomly....any help would be great before i drop another 300 on a new nexus.
Started last night after I updated a few play store apps. I put my phone in the charger and it was at 1% at the time. I got it up to about 17% and it just stopped charging. I thought it was just the charger (official LG) so I switched it out and grabbed another (Touchpad charger) and it started charging again.
Skip to the morning about 6-7 hours later. Phone is really hot, 75% battery and not charging even though it's still plugged in. First instinct, restart it. At this point I had to get ready for work. When I got to work I let it slowly drain out and waiting about 30 minutes after it died before charging it, thinking that the battery needed a calibration. So I charged it up to about 35% and had to go for lunch. By the time I get back in a little over an hour it's at like.. 10% I think which is pretty odd for that amount of time.
Anyway I let it drain out again, at this point I also reflashed my current rom (dirty wipe), installed betterbatterystats and another app to check wake locks. I also installed greenify and froze 2-3 things. Drain is still happening although it might have slowed a little bit.
Fast forward to home, I have now completely wiped my phone and flashed the latest stable CM on it (10.1.2). In about 40 minutes I went from 25% - 15%. I DID NOT FLASH GAPPS YET. This is running barebones with literally no apps, no syncing (no gapps, no google signin) with WiFi on. I'm thinking the fast drain has to do with A) Uncalibrated battery (I haven't hit 100% in about 48 hours now almost) or B) battery is dead (or really bad).
TL;DR Battery is draining super fast, no [excessive] wake locks, dirty flashed once, clean wiped once. Drain still happening. All in a period of less than 24 hours. Is this a hardware issue?
have you tried a custom kernel?? .. try Franco's i think it's the best for battery life.

I flashed Franco M3 last night before going to bed. I'm going to see how today goes, but right now I can tell you I don't think it fixed anything.

I'll give it a shot whenever it gets low battery today.
you can' really judge franco kernel until a few battery cycle as it need to settle with your ROM.
Hey Guys,
this morning I woke up to a dead phone again. Which was odd, because i charged it to 100% a couple of hours before I went to sleep.
When I turned it on and plugged it into the charger I immediately went into the battery usage log and took these screenshots.
Now, I heard of problems with the N4, the battery not being the best and all, but is it normal for the phone to discharge in that time by just lying around?
Also, when I plugged it in, the displayed battery level climbed somewhat fast. It had 1% when I plugged it in and 10% a minute after that. While I write this, it's at 20% already.
Is this anything out of the ordinary or am I just imagining it?

Have you installed any new apps lately?
I'm betting you have a wakelock that is preventing your phone from entering deep sleep.
Download Better Battery Stats and see if it's wakelock causing it

Let's see... I installed UCCW (not used yet), Light Manager (changed LED settings slightly) and Fast Reboot.
Could the Light Manager be the problem? I'll go ahead and check those battery stats anyway...
EDIT: Oh, I also recently set up face unlock (stock feature) Should not be a problem though, since it's not an additional app, right?
So, after running on battery for a while I took these. Can you make any sense of it?
EDIT: Wanted to check the stats again after I had on battery for the night and it was dead again. Unfortunately the stats seem to be deleted when the phone restarts (or maybe when it's plugged in).
I have Aurora ICS in my U8800. Yesterday I removed SIM to another phone and turned U8800 back on. Battery level was 80%. Listened music, used wifi a little bit... and today, 12 hours later battery level was still 80%. Reboot, and now the battery level is 40%. Plugged in charger and two hours later level was still 40%. Reboot, and now the level is 100%.
What part in Android system handles battery level changes (and updates changes battery indicator). And why does SIM play any role in this situation? And most important question now is how can I refresh charge level without rebooting (and without SIM of course)? Tried some battery widgets from play store but without luck...

just charge your phone for 3 hours, i think that should be enough for full charge.Do not unplug it, Go to recovery wipe battery stats, and leave it plugged in for another half an hour. that should solve it.

not everyone have clockwork recovery my friend
anotherway to resert battery stats its free apk calld battery calibration
here is link
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nema.batterycalibration
it needs root.
best way to calibrate battery is fully charge then unplug restart device plug in charge till 100% and do it again over and over for 3 times then... calibrate battery
fully discharge and charge again till 100 w/o breaks
Ok, tried that what rjspark89 suggested. No help.
But when I inserted an old, deactivated SIM-card into phone, everything worked fine.
So, something is not working the way I think... Now using U8800 as PDA for a while. No phone but BT and WIFI are working, and battery charge level changes as expected. Case closed
(and yes, I have Clockwork Recovery in my phone, and battery calibration app(s) are familiar too)
