Bizarre Battery Log - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

What is up with my battery readings. My phone is always making bizarre jumps like this. Notice the two vertical changes.

There are actually 3. One drop which is not accompanied by the charging and 2 increases one of them severe.
Its actually the initial drop that makes it bizarre. The battery isn't that old or that worn so corrections to read capacity shouldn't be severe. Discrepancies while charging can be explained a little easier. All depends on the battery controllers methods of reading while charging and how the OS samples the data from that. As i say its the drop that confuses me.
I would definitely say a calibration is in order before further investigation unless some knowledge is out there.

I've also noticed battery drops like that for me where it drops about 30% and was caused by random reboots from flashing new roms.

"Good" "Bad" "Average" battery life test.

So I tested to see how long it would take my phone to go from 100% full charge to 0% death. I want to know Is this or should this be considered good battery life? In my opinion I think its good battery with moderate to heavy use, but what do you all think? And how do this battery life compare to yours?
I'm on FC07 rooted and deodex rom, throughout this whole process, I had 4g, 3g, sync on and kept brightness at 25%. Some screen shots. 8 hours

Meet my friend Bob Sacamano
Thats terrible compared to a gb rom, look at the awake time, what was running?

Looks like you were without a network for a lot of that time which will cause significant battery drain as it's constantly trying to find a signal.
There's another thread started to look at battery life and possible fixes check it out http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=23501965

Thats about how bad my battery life is on ICS with wifi constantly on.

[Q] Fix for incorrect display % in battery usage stats?

Is there a fix for the underestimated display use of battery? It's not a huge deal, but it's annoying.

Thanks, but I prefer to stay on TW.
I'm hoping there's a apk/file I can edit. I just need someone to point me in the right direction so I can poke through the right classes.dex.

No. That is a Samsung issue. What Android System is displaying is basically every use of your phone. Any wakelock, display on, boot up, sync, anything needing an android driver, even charging because it has a script that runs. So Samsung believes this to be correct. Like a computer, Windows and it's drivers run 85% of the time versus the programs using processor power.
ICS ports and AOSP ROMs have redefined that to use other than those things above. The only stats you really need is display on time and percentage of deep sleep from CPUSpy for a given percentage of battery.

I feel my battery its draining faster than usual

Well I ve been In cm9+franco for long over 3 months now my battery was about 15 hours with 4 hours screen more or less but now it's draining way faster here some pics..
Could someone tell me what's the problem if any?

Pics don't work.
It is probably a rogue app.
Download a free app from market

If your looking for applications to see if apps are taking cpu cycles there is an android info app in the market that can show you all processes and cpu cycles...looking for something that stays near the top and thats probably the issue. Also make sure that you have google now disabled, NFC, and geolocation if you dont check in everywhere. These are built in "very nice" features but they constantly pull your phone out of deep sleep on the move...and god knows we all want 2 hours screen time :highfive:

Odd battery reading

Can anyone explain this battery reading? Currently i'm on stock gb. But I was about to go to bed and looked at this and just thought it was odd and idk why.

I'll go out on a limb and say its your cell signal. More cell searching pulling the voltage down phone thinks it's got less juice. Signal returns, voltage creeps back up. Battery might be getting weak also. Or I could be totally wrong I'm just guessing really

Yeah I was kind of thinking that. The phone is only 3 or 4 months old I hope the battery isn't bad. Ha thank you for your opinion

What the hell is up with battery? It first charges at very fast rate usually 2-3% every 5 mins then slows down and when reaches around 70% it jumps to 100 % . it can retain its charge to max about 9-8 hours with minimal use and 2-3 hours with heavy use, I have tried clearing cache/battery status from recovery and different ROMs/kernel/radio all give same result
Hi mate!

Hmm so ordered a new OEM battery let's see if its real

I had the same thing with the desire hd I had, basically lost the top 30% capacity I believe. Once I replaced the battery it was perfect again.
