Hey, my battery is gradually getting worse, how to exactly check battery stats? I AM using accu battery, And after a few battery cycles IT shows 4000/1500 mAh. How can i gry better readings? And if that's readings are correct, is IT better to buy new phone, or replace battery. Redmi 3S is enough for me, but maybe IT is time to move on?

If you are on a budget get the battery replaced or get a new phone
Did you try a full charge + reset of your battery stats ?
I replaced battery, long live Redmi 3s

Hi.
I recently bought a new Fat battery for my desire. It promises to deliver 2600 mAH but i have my doubts...
First of all, only the voltage is printed on the battery itself.
Second, I experience worse uptime than on my original 1400 mAH battery.
Third, I guess Iam just sceptical by nature.
So my question: Is there an app out there that will display max capacity?
Or do I really have to measure it with a multimeter?

the only way to measure precisely is using an app called
battery monitor widget
have it measure the current and voltage every 60 seconds
fully charged ur volatge suppose to be at ~4.2V with either battery
the drainage suppose to be the same at screen off
lets say ur phone drains 9mA steady
u should see the voltage sinking slower on the higher capacity battery
i would give it an hour or 2 hours on each battery to check the result
example:
1400mAh battery
steady 9mA current over 2 hours from 4200mV down to 4150mV
2600mAh batter
steady 9mA current over 2 hours from 4200mV down to 4175mV
hope it helped^^

This shows the mAh.
if you brought the £13 one made in China from ebay (like I did) then it's a total fake the stock battery lasts longer, the only good thing about it is because the back cover is that much thicker you can rest it on it's side to watch movies etc...!

That's true. Better to buy the original.

Hello,
I've bought an extended Battery for my GT-I9505.
My Problem:
I don't feel anything of the power increase from the new battery... It's still discharging between 8-10 hours like the Stock one.
I deleted the batterystats.bin,
I calibrated the battery,
I charged and discharged it completly several times,
After a quick research I got the Information, that I need another Kernel, becouse the Stock one don't accept the bigger battery (the kernel think the battery is full charged but the battery isn't really.)
And if I combine 1 and 1 my thought is:
The more the battery is charged, the more the output voltage.
The Mobile recognise if the battery is full to avoid an overloading.
This recognise is taken from the output Voltage exact like the percent scale.
When the Stock battery reached his 2600mah capacity the output voltage is for example 4.000 Volt.
2600 mah --> 4.000 Volt --> 100%
BUT HERE IS THE PROBLEM:
As soon as the 4.000 Volt ≙ 2600mah are reached with the new 5600mah battery the mobile thinks its full charged to protect from an overload.
And I think, that the Battery isn't really full even if the mobile says that.
Can anyone help me?
I'm don't think this is the case. I'm pretty sure there are people using extended batteries on stock ROMs.
Could it just be that the capacity is fake?
Not really... The battery has good ratings on ebay

Guys! I just got my new HETP 6800 Mah Extended Battery today. I'm just wondering if I need to calibrate the battery for the first time. I have read in several reviews of other extended batteries that the battery should be drained completely before charging the for the first time and it should be repeated to 3 times in order to calibrate the battery. Is it advisable to do that?
Ps: I don't trust those battery calibration app so please refrain from recommending them.
Did it anyways lol. Although I got a strange issue when the battery is on 30%,the battery is draining fast but when on 2% it takes 2 hours to discharge the battery even mobile data is on. It is so weird. How do I calibrate the battery percentage? Please help.
Hello, as 6t maclaren uses new battery technology, how should i charge the phone ?
Should i completely drain battery before plug to charge or need to left some juice like %5-10 ?
My purpose is extend battery life cycle
Dude, just don't bother. It is enough not to overheat and not to overcool the smartphone. The maximum that you win with your torment is an extra month of battery life, not more.

With modern batteries,you do not do this,it is bad to completely drain the battery,instead keep it somewhere between 50 to 90,somewhere in the middle,
It is also not a good idea to fully charge device too often,maybe once a month. There is more info out there on the web,but Generally what I do is top up my phone maybe twice a day,keeping it in the middle ground of 50 to 90. As far as I know this is recommended to prolong the battery

I think you don't need to worry about that cause lithium batteries are smart....This article might help you give a quick read https://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/charging_lithium_ion_batteries.
Hi all,
Using AccuBattery and it's telling me the battery is around 4160 mAh (that's from three charges so far). Obviously it should be around 4500 mAh.
Anybody else see this?
Thanks
I've installed the app to test your problem. It detected the correct battery capacity for me. The app tells you that you can adjust the battery capacity, probably because sometimes the reading is wrong.

No, no you misunderstand.
It detects 4510mAh which is correct. Once you've gone through a few charging cycles the app will tell you the actual capacity of your battery under the "Health" tab.
Me too, Accubattery says I have 4220 mA battery. Its around 5% less than original capacity (4510).
I see when battery is full charged, battery down from 100% to 99% quickly. On oneplus 7 pro I had the same problem, battery was "old" and OP7pro lost 5% quickly.
I don´t think it is enough to return the OP8pro, I will buy a new battery in the future when battery is older.
They use battery designed for max 4.4V. Advised capacity is correct if battery charged to designed maximum voltage however there is software limitation and you cannot charge battery over for example 4.275V in 7 pro. Real capacity is approximately 10% lower than advised. You have to understand that Oneplus is Chinese company so you cannot expect any reliable and trustworthy information from them.

4042mah on my one... But battery life has been great... It seems the voltage limit thing is the main reason.
4440mAh on mine.
Many reviews in playstore says similar problems on many phones.
Seems this app is not really accurate.
Thanks all
On new Pixel 4 XL I had 3850 mAh according to accubattery and 4100 mAh on LG V50. This measure is quite reliable after long time usage and you gonna see quite similar results like using usb meter. On my 7 pro I had 86% designed capacity and I have bought new battery - still 88% but when I noticed what's written on battery label all happened clear. Please never believe Chinese people even if it is global company they always lying because of they drink lay whit mother's milk and it's strongly correlated whit their totalitarian culture.
I just did 3 charges on my new op 8 pro and i'm getting 4419 mah ... :S
I did around 5 charges and mine is 4084mah, battery life is not great...
It's not accurate lol, don't trust it
