Problem: Battery shows 100% always - P3300, MDA Compact III ROM Development

EDIT: The problem was that the battery driver isn't the best. At 3.99V it switched to 99%. So the problem is fixed now!
Hi guys.
I have a problem wih my Artemis. After flashing the USPL and a M6.5 ROM it always shows the Battery to be 100% changed and doesn't want to charge it. But I'm sure it isn't 100%.
The ROM isn't the problem cause with the device fully of the same thing happens if trieing it.
I tried to flash the SPL back but I only get errors.
Any help would be cool
Thanks

Hi,
Are you sure that isn't the ROM?
however you haven't tried to mount the original ROM?
bye,
Silvio

OK Answer: I'm sure. I tried 10 ROMs (7 cooked, the original, a HTC English original and HTC German Original). I tried 4 SPLs (Both USPLs (Pof, Cmonex) Original SPL and HTC WWE SPL). I tried 4 Radios too. I checked the Battery with a voltmeter several times and I got first 4.17V (seemd to be nearly full then) and second time I got 4.12 (sure it wasn't full anymore). Now I'm already running it in standby with GSM on for 6h and it still shows 100%. So I'm sure it isn't the ROM SPL or Radio.
Only things left are IPL or OEMSPL. Or maybe the Info recieved from the battery.
Thanks for your reply guy.
Any help would be nice.

then you tried to keep the pocket PC on for a day? to me the battery falls below 100% for 6 hours more or less ...
P.S. the battery is a 3.7V... 4.17-12V ...is full!
Bye,
Silvio

The battery is full at 4.2V as written on it. Compared to my Kaiser it sould only have 80% with 4.12V. And yea I'll leave it on till it goes off itself to know when the battery is empty. When it is empty I'm sure I can't carge anymore if it still thinks it is full but for that problem I have a 4.5V AC/DC adaptor to recharge the battery.
By the way which sence do the 3rd and 4th pin have? They don't have any voltage. Are they for the Vibration motor or do they transmit the charging state to the phone?

I don't know it utility...
however happened to me and I resolved discharged, I do not know what else to do...
P.S. when my battery is fully charged 3.9V marks... sorry for my imperfect english

No problem. Maybe I have to connect + to - very short to get the Voltage down. But first I'll just let it lay there in standby with phone on and see how it goes. Then if it goes off I'm sure the battery is empty. then I can start bench the Charging with external system.
That won't solve the problem but then I'll have a benchmark.
Thanks for your infos and tips.
And your English is no problem to me.

not at all
let me know if it works
Bye

Yea I will.

Solution
GO TO REGISTRY
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\security\ResOver\Bitmaps]
AND REMOVE:
"BatteryIconIdStart"=dword:000003E9
"BatteryIconLevels"=dword:00000065
RESTART, DONE !!!

Hi
if I may ask do you happen to have any better driver or how did you manage to fix your problem as i happen to have the same.
thanks in advance.

Didn't work. But anyway as I said in first post the problem is fixed. The battery has just a very bad voltage curve as i found out using a voltmeter while discharging.
edit:
@mjonase:
I just waited. It takes until the battery is unter 4V. Then it switched to 99%. The driver isn't the problem just the OEMSPL and the battery itself. Just switch on bluetooth and phone and keep the device on. After max 1h the battery level bar will change.

thanks @ChrBeck it seems i gut a different prob altogether mine seems to be a faulty h/w ,charges up and shows 100% if i remove it from the charger the battery drops quite quick, and when i reset it comes back with almost nothing left but when i charge the battery externally it can keep the charge for approx 2-2 1/2 days. so my artemis does false charge ups i guess.

Yea I think it doesn't charge right.
That is a different problem.

WM 6.5 Shady313 ROM (23081 R2)?
Hi,

Is it normal or abnormal

My friend gave me his used T-Mobile Vairo 2 for trying.
I took approxiamately 4 hours for charging after the battery is totally empty.When i charged,the ppc is extremely hot,I have used O2 mini and Dopod M700,they were not hot as Vairo 2,this is hot like a laptop run 24/24
When finish,i istalled software from Memory card,play a round during 2hour30 minutes, no wireless or bluetooth.I checked battery at this moment,it was 50% and hot as i mentioned before.
I also enable function "Standby device if not use for 5/10/15 minutes".At 50% of battery, i turned it off in order to go to bed.4 hours later,i open device,it was totally empty (the screen cant boot),then i charged it again,it reseted and warned me that battery is 0%
SO,it is normal or battery problem

welcome to xda-developers... first i suggest when posting you list your Operating System, Versions, what ROM you are using, what Operator, what programs your running to achieve these figures etc... to give us a little more information to help diagnose the problems...

1. This is not forum for battery problems, this is forum for WM6 problems.
2. I had similar problem when I used some 3rd party USB charger. When I switched back to stock one I had no problems. Later I tried to use USB cable to connect to computer and also noticed no problems.

O2 Ignito - Replacement DOESN'T FULLY CHARGE TOO!

Please help!
At my wits end with this handset! Just got a complete replacement Ignito as the last one didn't charge beyond 65%; the replacement is stuck at 60%!!!!!
Been advised by o2 to have the battery checked in an o2 store. However, I've been told by a mate it may well be a ROM problem?
Has anybody had this problem with their Ignito / Diamond? How did you solve it?
Thanks in advance,
Chris.
Mine is working fine, so I don't know what could be the problem with yours.
hummmm
you are charging from the wall and not pc i take it?
that's very strange, i've not heard of this problem being caused from the ROM, i take it you are on the standard O2 rom? If so i'd say take it back to O2, and let them test it, but if you are on a custom rom then i recommend you try changing ROM
I'm still on the 1.93 stock ROM and have no issues with charging from the mains. Using an old IPAQ charger with an extended USB cable too.

I've had issues with the handset reporting its full and then upon checking the power settings its only at 60%. Simple answer for me was turn the device off, leave to charge overnight from the mains and it was fine in the morning. Happened twice now but on a different rom each time. Think its best to charge with the device off anyway so nothing else is drawing power (such as the phone connecting to the network etc) that way you know its got the best charge possible. Could of course be complete rubbish but I've never had any issues and the battery lasts longer I find.

Dead XDA IIs (BA)

Hi all,
Noob user here
I've a problem with my XDA IIs that I thought I'd get some advice on rather than dispensing of it. Basically...it won't switch on. When plugged into mains the red light comes on for a bit then goes off.
Phone was working perfectly, put it in my pocket got home and nothing, assumed it crashed but doesn't respond to anything. Has been sat on my wardrobe for over a year but could do with using it for sat nav.
Any advice on what to try? Could be the battrey but don't wanna fork out extra cash for a new one as it's even more money lost
If I wasn't to fix it, any idea on what it's worth? Screen is unmarked and it has all standard accessories with it.
Ta
Save you BA man! More or less it's the battery (I think). Or the internal battery is drained to 0%. Have you tried charging it first for a couple of minutes?
Yeah tried charging overnight. Charge light comes on for a bit then goes out. Does the same thing when connected via usb, red light comes on but it doesn't register on the pc.
Was working fine but then one day it just woudn't come on. Would like to keep it if I can, got a touch diamond too now, but this is actually a better phone to use!
try to use a different battery first. And let's see what happens next.
Yeah, I may have to but want to avoid as much extra cost as I can
Bit more info, using the docking station plugged into the mains:
Batt alone - Charge light on dock comes on.
BA alone - Red light on BA comes on.
BA with batt attached - no lights on.
Any ideas??
can you try to put it in bootloader mode?

Plus it doesn't actualls switch on or register on the PC, so can I do much to it?
It's just like what I did with my BA a few days ago, I am flashing it with a new ROM and while in the process I intentionally unplugged the cable during the process and I got an error on my PC and my BA does not turn on anymore. I tried to put it in bootloader mode a couple of times and it did and I re-flashed it again. And it works. Check the wiki...

no need to buy at once, borrow first, then if your BA works using another's batt, thats the time you need to decide spending... cheers
The same problem I had!!!!!!!!!!
I had this trouble... and... YUP!!!!! is the backup battery.
So you cant charge your BA via USB if the main batt reaches less than 35% so keep it safely above 35% men...
BTW... if you have your batt less than 35% the OS can be runing just a little seconds so your batt is dying is not truth that it have 35% it has almost 5% trust me...
Yes!!!! the red led Turns On a little then Goes off... so sad isnt it?... now your backup batt is almost 0% thats why your red led appears... so...
Get a craddle USB-AC_Charging base it has a backtrace to charge apart the batt charge it individual. Once you get a full charged main batt, let your BA rest a little on the freezer to obtain a little power of the Backup batt... (YES ON THE FREEZER!!! ) at least 3 minutes before you plug the main batt.
It wakes up the device... maybe it becomes a few seconds on but... is enough.... if it starts... cradle your entire device on the craddle and wait till its full charged... again the green led appears cause the main is full but let it charge more and more... caus there is no led indicator for backup batt.
NOP!!!!!!! I dont do the freezer trick when i had this problem... cause i get it works faster than you...
Hope this works... post your adventure men....
Red Hanks/Que - Tried both those (ok, maybe not the freezer bit!), and stil no joy. Gonna go out over the weekend and see if a repair shop can try another battrey. Otherwise I may be saying goodbye :-(
Phezthie - The BA was rare when new, now they are non-existent. No chance of borrowing a friends.
Cheers for the help guys.
Well it is a nice idea!
you can make a modded battery for BA with two nokia bl 5c taiwan batts... check the post on winmo 6 subforum.
In my opinion. it's the internal battery since you didn't use the phone for over a year. Hope you can make your BA alive again because there's so much nice apps waiting out there...
I was using it daily before this though, it suddenly stopped working one day. It did however crash a few times before it finally went. I'll have a read up on changing internal batt. Red...I'm gonna try and save it!
Ok...keep us posted and good luck mate!

both batteries, main and backup, could be the reason thats why you need to determine which one of it by isolating the cause of the problem. to know if its the main battery, you can improvise by using different battery with same voltage rating (3.7volts, no need to worry as to the Ah rating), but be sure to connect the proper polarity to the BA's correct pin terminals, otherwise, power circuit of your BA will be compromised.
As to the backup battery, you can do nothing it but to replace if defective. the "freezer trick" is actually one of the shattering myths of electronics and cannot be relied upon to have an optimal performance, as it neither charge nor extend the life of the battery. it simply reduces the the power dissipation (power loss due to heat and resistance) during the initial boot so that it can draw enough power to run unit in its chargeable condition.
but since it is not prossible to borrow or no available battery can be used as a test unit, I suggest that you try the first procedure aforementioned, this of course, if you are familiar with battery polarities and know the corresponding terminals of the unit. regards
Hmmmm, my diamond has a 3.7v batt...never thought of that!
I'm near preston, with the origional battery . .
I'm near preston, with the origional battery . . fully charged, will last 6/12Hrs=using it, P.M. me ur postcode + House #, I will send it to you to try
(stick with the BA, new HTC Elf is half the PPC, that the BA is!!!!)
FleaBay'd a 2400mAh (incl shipping)=under £10GBP !!! (late last year)

Cheers mate, but I've just paid for one off ebay so I'll just wait for that to come now. If it doesn't do it I may be selling up...
Fingers crossed
Ok, new battrey arrived this morning. Gave it a charge and just tried it...
....no change
Screen, green and blue top corner and red end call lights momentarily flash when I press the power button. Then nothing.
Both batteries seem to charge in the cradle but not in the phone.
So, any other suggestions oh technically superior ones??
Btw, I received 2 batteries this morning, so I've listed the new one to get some cash back here:

Quick discharge from 100% to 90% when connected to AC

My Desire suffers from the following problem: whenever it's connected to AC, it will charge until 100% but then after some arbitrary time period it will discharge quickly to 90% after which it will slowly charge again until it reaches 100%. This can happen two or three times each night. This means that if you take your Desire out at the wrong moment, the battery charge will be at 90% instead of 100% which is EXTREMELY annoying.
I'm thinking that there must be other Desires with this problem, since my previous Desire (which was replaced because of WiFi-problems) exhibited the exact same behaviour. Does anyone else notice this? Or is anyone else willing to check (by means of using Juiceplotter overnight) if his/her Desire suffers from this as well? I just can't believe that the two Desires that I own/have owned are the only ones suffering from this ...
I already contacted HTC Customer Support and they told me that they would pass on this information to another department.
It's common... even I have it.
Whether it's a security or a bug (or both!) is completly unknown at this point I believe.

This has been discussed many times, and the concensus is that it is normal. When battery fully charged, it will stop until it falls below 90% at which point it will charge again.

My HTC Hero did not behave that way, and HTC did not explain to me that it was intended behaviour either.
Also, that would mean that the battery plot is incorrect since it shows rapid discharges from 100% to 90%, such as in the following image:
Furthermore, it seems that this problem (or feature ...?) disappears on at least some devices after rooting.
It seems to happen to me more often than not when I take the phone off the charger each morning. It's annoying but I need the phone on, so charging it to full while turned off each night's not an option.
This is usually done to exercise the battery.
I worked with developing a phone, and we did the same thing, in order for the battery capacity not to degrade because it keeps trickle charging at 100%.
So you shouldn't worry about this.
same happens to me, however i charge it over night and when i get up in the morning uplug and it charges for another 30mins (whilst i get ready for work) and its back up to 100%/99% which i can live with

Hm, my HTC Hero did not have this 'great feature'. I'd rather buy a new battery when this one has degraded too far, instead of having a not fully charged almost 50% of the times that I unplug it.
It would be more acceptable on a phone that would be able to go for at least 48 hours without intermediate charges but clearly, the Desire (just like most smartphones) can't do that.
first, apologise for reviving an old thread.
but it seems that charing by usb (via pc) does not have this problem.
also, charging by ac causes the battery to discharge at a faster rate...
Battery falls to 90% as soon as I unplug the charger
Same problem here, plug the charger before I sleep, at the morning the battery widget indicates 100% and the phone light is green, then I unplug the charger and suddently (really suddently, I mean quite instantly) the charge indicator falls to 89-91%.
Considering the poor duration of a fully charged battery I'd prefer not to lose the 10% of the charge before start using the device.
I'm quite sure this didn't appen with 1.15 stock ROM, I suppose I'd noticed it in case...
I can't remember if this appened after FOTA update from 1.15 to 1.21
With 3.1 modaco ROM I had this problem and now even with 1.23.351.1 Build rooted and A2SD+.
I tryed different radio ROMs without results..
I contacted HTC customer support, they told me to use an app manager like Taskiller to close unneeded applications that drain battery... lol
Obiouvsly they don't know anything about this problem..
Any ideas? It really hurts me to start every day with 90% of the battery!!
Thanks to all!
Hey, I have the same problem since I updated OTA version 1.21, never happened to me before with 1.15. Now when I wake up, I have fully (100%) charged battery, but after a minute or two it instantly jumps to 92%.
Any solutions?
Same here after the last update.

I've just sent a e-mail to the customer support of HTC explaining the problem, as soon as I have an answer I will post it here.
It should be interesting to do a factory reset and test with a recharge without installing any other stuff. Is there anyone who have a standard ROM (not rooted, original kernel) and want to do a try?
While I was writing they answered... They invited me to go to the nearest collection point to test another battery if available.
I'm starting to think the problem is not hardware related if other of our devices started to suffer the problem after the update..
I'll contact them again and we will see what appens.
Meanwhile if someone want to try what I suggested, it would be really apreciated.
Customer Support official answer.
The official answer: Send the device to us for repair. First try with another battery if you want (an if you can find another one...).
I'm not too happy to send my 3 weeks old device to them for 20 days so maybe I'll try to flash the 1.15 or 1.21 official ROM to see how the battery works. If anyone with the same problem wants to try to downgrade, please do it just to help to understand which is the problem.
I am having exactly same problem, i dont think its a battery issue either :/
Is there anyone who rooted and "desire" (wow, what a joke! ) to try a Froyo ROM to see if the problem persists? I suppose it should be totally different from 1.21 or 1.23...
I feel a bit lazy at the moment , I've just done a good setup and I'd like not to redo it again....
Volunteers?

Mine is not rooted. I didnt have this problem before the update.
I have some apps installed and a few widgets but nothing "advanced" like different launcher, heavy widgets. After the update I did a hard reset and didn't even backup my settings (have contacts and e-mail via Exchange server). The hard reset didn't help at all...

Maybe in the next days I'll try...
I used the phone till it automatically switched off, pulled out the battery for one minute, tryed to charge the phone when totally switched off and it charghed and stayed at 100% so I'm quite sure it's a ROM related problem.

[Q]Wlidfire S Battery charge indicator 2.3.5 upgrade problem

Battery charge indicator 2.3.5 upgrade problem
Hello everyone.This is my first time come to xda-developers form.I'm from china.
Yesterday I update my wildfire S(China mainland Edition)to 2.3.5+Sense3.0 lockscreen(Taiwan Edition)'s ROM.
I charge my bbttery yesterday evening.I turn off my phone.
When charge compalate.I found that the LED light didn't change green.It was still orange.
Why?How to solve it?
PS:Maybe my post have some Grammar problem。I hope that you can Bear with it.
Try factory reset see if it helps.
Backup important information and personal stuff first.
Just try the procedure of taking the battery out, sim card, micro sd etc etc and see if that works...
are you using the stock battery?
i used to notice with my (so called) extended battery 2430mah Gold battery, the software would say it was 100% charge, but it stayed orange for around another hour or two, then eventually turned green...i assume this is because the phone software had misjudged the charge level...so although it THOUGHT it was 100% full, it was actually still charging?
so if you have changed the battery at all, leave it charging for a bit longer (only an hour or so) and see if it goes out?
should be safe, as the batteries themselves usually have an auto shut off safety to stop them from being over-charged.
I get the exact same on ALL custom ROMs, never on Stock though, would love a fix!

Since I unlocked my phone's bootloader, rooted and installed custom recovery I have the same problem too.
If I charge the battery with the phone turned on, the led turns green at 100% and everything is fine.
If I charge the battery with the phone off, the led stays orange forever even when I disconnect the charger. Then I have to remove the battery and insert it again so that the led turns off. If I wait enough time charging the battery reaches 100%.
This is a strange sympton that only started with the rooting/recovery flashing process.
Oh and BTW the way, I use stock battery but now I'm waiting for the arrival of two batteries I ordered on eBay.
One is a Li-Ion 1500 mAh and the other a Li-Polymer 2430 mAh.
Will see if the same happens when they arrive but I'm almost 100% sure this has something to do with the bootloader unlocking process.
Does anybody know how to fix this? I would really appreciate it.

i used to notice with my (so called) extended battery 2430mah Gold battery, the software would say it was 100% charge, but it stayed orange for around another hour or two, then eventually turned green...i assume this is because the phone software had misjudged the charge level...so although it THOUGHT it was 100% full, it was actually still charging?
so if you have changed the battery at all, leave it charging for a bit longer (only an hour or so) and see if it goes out?
should be safe, as the batteries themselves usually have an auto shut off safety to stop them from being over-charged.

I for example left my phone charging for 8 hours (during the night) beyond the normal charge time. And the worst is that I have to remove the battery in order to turn off the orange led and be able to turn on my phone...

Hi
have you try to wipe battery stats in recovery mode?
perhaps this will help, although I had not previously encountered a similar problem

I've tried wiping battery stats in recovery mode and also with Nema Battery Calibration. Nothing fixes this annoying bug.

Same as, pain in the arse!
Great news! At least on my phone this problem is gone.
You wonder how? Simply by updating recovery to v5.0.2.8 from ROM Manager.
I almost didn't notice it it but a few hours ago I plugged my phone to the charger while still on. After finishing my work I turned it off (no fastboot).
In the meanwhile I needed to use my phone far from the wall plug and disconnected the usb charger cable.
My gesture was to immediately remove back cover to remove the battery but fortunately I noticed the orange led went off.
So I decided to plug it again and wait for the charge to complete and for the green led. It did!
So run to the Market, download ROM Manager and let it update your recovery to the latest version.
I hope this annoying pest won't bother you no more.

thanks, i will definitely try this, ive been having a hard time looking on ways how to solve this problem.. also can i now do battery calibration steps after that?
cause im having battery drain issue on my WFS after flashing of ROM, im not getting 4.219V my only maximum was 4.196V. And yesterday i tried charging my phone in OFF state for 7.5hours and when i open it 100% at 4.077V, and now 87% just after 15mins of use..

sorted it out alright,was using a universal charger for a replacement night hour charging ....thought this is just because of the overclocking.
First of all reset the phone . Am sure that will help.

Not what the problem was or related to, it was an outdated ROM manager app that caused it...
