I'm on FB17 and my phone is getting really hot while charging is stuck at 99%. It's been like this for a couple hours. anyone know what's up?

Is something running? When you're plugged in, you're still running off the battery. Mine only goes 100% if it's in standby while plugged in.
Nothings running at all

Turn off the phone and let it charge.
If that doesn't work, pull the battery and let it sit for 2 minutes
Yeah, I'm having the same issue. Also read a few others were as well. I'm going to try and recalibratey battery. Ill keep you posted.
+1 to Nibrs' comment. I would shutdown the phone completely, let it take a full charge WITHOUT the android OS running, unplug the charger, remove the battery for a few minutes then boot the phone back up. After it's been up and running and settled in, plug the charger back in once again. It could take 30-45 minutes to finish this last trickle charge.
I've had this issue since cm9 alpha 1. Don't really care.

Thanks for your non-contribution to this thread.
Alright, are calibrating didn't work ( might of helped battery life tho) it charges to 100% only when my phone is off. As soon as I turn it on, its at 99%. I miss my blue led.

Mine will be stuck on 99% for a long time also but mine will eventually say 100%. It has to do with how the battery is charged. Once it gets to a certain point it only does a slow trickle charge to maintain the battery level. So for the 99% part it's supposed to do that but you shouldn't have those heat issues. Did you flash a new ROM recently by chance?

Since GB my phone has done this same thing. I just figured its an ICS thing...really if u think about it, ur phone is at 100% while charged...u unplug it and it is using battery so you're at 99.999 percent off the bat...seems like the phone just doesn't round less than whole numbers.

You're not actually fully charged when you unplug it. It would be in the 90% area because it doesn't constantly charge the battery. It stops once it gets to a certain point and then will start charging again once the battery hits a certain minimum level.
Well, took almost 12hrs of charging but finally got to a 100%. Btw. I'm on blu kuban rom. Not sure if its a ics bug or a battery issue. Never had this happen in stock.

I think it is supposed to float between 95% - 100% to avoid damaging the battery.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Don't know if this a factor but had this happen today on ff09. Battery jumped from 54% to 10% on one reboot (phone was hot)... Rebooted again and back up to 26%.
Got home, plugged in on LG cord to 99%. Changed to Sammy charger, finished 2 hrs later.

How many cycles have you gone since flashing? I have been on blu kuban for over a month now. I update the instant I see an update. Most times it takes around 3 full battery cycles before I see decent life. This last update seemed to take longer than usual to see normal battery behavior. First I would try draining battery to 5%, run battery calibration script in the updater then fully charge and calibrate again. If it continues I would recommend the standard restore to stock and reinstall.

I've had something odd going on the past few days. I'll leave my phone to charge overnight and when I wake up and unplug it, it drops down to around 70% right away as soon as I unplug it, When I plug it back in, it will charge for a few minutes then tell me it's fully charged. I take it off the charger again and it drops down again to the 70% range.. It's freaking me out. I was on the stock rom when it happened. I tried wiping and starting from scratch but no dice, I installed culkins rom and the issue is still happening. I've even tried to do a battery calibration but that didnt seem to do anything. Anyone have any ideas?
Probably need a new battery since it can't hold the charge

When I wake up and take my phone off the charger, it's always at like 98 or 97%. I have battery monitor and when looking at it, it shows that it gets to 100% through charging, then goes down to 98 or 97 and then stays at that state throughout the night.
Anyone else having this happen with their phone? With enough battery issues, it seems these 2 or 3% could be an hour of standby.
When the phone hits 100% on the charger it doesn't charge anymore to prevent overcharging.. pretty common feature in most phones nowadays.. if it goes below a threshold it charges again until 100 and the process repeats

same issue... my thunderbolt use to hit 100%, but the gnex stops at 99 or 98%. if i unplug the charger for few seconds, plug it back in and boom it goes to 100%
Same issue here. Seems to stay on 99 until I unplug charger and plug it back it.

If you want to get 100% (not saying it makes a difference when it's showing at 98/99%, what volfman suggest it the best way to do it. I did it with my SGS2
it should charge to 100% in the first place. another bug that needs to be fixed... hopefully the 4g gets fixed first cuz with this, i can live with.
The reason i want `100% is cuz its nice to see the 100% rather then 99%.
I'm currently on the cyogenmod 9 alpha 3. when i have it charged over night it goes to 100% then as i unplug it, it goes stright to 91%

Pull your battery out after charging to 100. Wait a minute, put it back in, boot up, and then charge to 100 again. Repeat until you boot up to 100 then wipe battery stats and use until 1% battery.

Also might want to let it drain all the way.. then fully charge and try wiping battery stats in a cwm recovery..

will do..
Did the advice in this thread fix your problem? My phone just started doing a similar thing today while at work. I'm on CM9 A3, FD10 kernel and FD26 modem. I had my phone plugged in at my desk, it indicated it was at 100%, and then as soon as I unplugged it went down to 84%. I flashed back to EL26, rei-nstalled CM9 A3, and it's still doing it. It also will do it with the phone off. After it's plugged in for a matter of seconds, it jumps up to 100% and stops charging. As soon as it is unplugged, back down to the 80s.
the same thing happens to me every once in a while, pulling the battery seems to help

This! I have always done this when it has happened to me and it has always worked. I would recommend before flashing any new rom when you wipe everything else like cache and delvic and all that good stuff include wiping battery stats.
Thanks for the responses. It is apparently the charger that I had at work. I'm a little surprised that a charger would cause a phone to think it's charged all the way but I guess stranger things have happened.
Charging off usb seems to work the best, I was using an old blackberry charger that gave me similar issues. Now I only use samsung wall chargers.

Trust me a bad charger can cause a lot of problems. One time I was using a crappy lg charger and whenever I would plug my phone in it would say battery disconnected I was sure the phone was messed up took it to sprint they hooked it up to the Samsung charger it comes with it charged fine. They gave me a new charger and I have never had a problem since.
So my battery was at 59, plugged it in the charger. Went up to 60, and then to 100 so then it stops charging. But then I use the phone for a little bit and it jumps back down to 60. I've never had this problem before. Any ideas? Oh and I'm using the stock charger.

Tried a different battery?
have you tried just booting your phone down for a bit remove the battery and then trying again?
Have not tried a new battery yet, but I did try removing the battery for a while and putting it back in. I even reinstalled juggs rom. Letting it discharge right now and gonna try chargin it see if it works
EDIT: Let it fully discharged then removed battery for 10 mins. Seems to have fixed it.
EDIT 2 : nevermind it just did it again. FUDGE!!

I'n not an expert. But I had a thought...
Did you by any chance did battery calibration?
And possible your battery was at 60% not a 100%.
Because battery calibration needs a full battery in order to calibrate. Also if you have CWM(ClockWorkMod) get in and try to clear battery stats.
My phone has done this once. What you need to do to fix it is once it says its at 100% unplug it and wait for it to drop back down. Plug it back in and keep doing that until it is actually at 100%. Its a pain in the ass but it fixed it for me and has not done it since.
Factory reset/data erase should do the trick if nothing else works.

Damn. Well I'll try a reset and if that doesn't work I'll try this. Thanks. Also I noticed even though it jumps to the 100 it still is charging. Last night at 23 it jumped to 24 then 100. Left it connected for like 15 minutes and when I unplugged it, it went from 100 to 32. I left it overnight and today when I woke i unplugged it and rebooted. Battery was at 92. So I guess its not that bad but I still want to fix it

Had this happen to me a few times... After a trying a ton of things I got electrical contact cleaner and cleaned both the charger cord end and the charging port of the phone.. Be sure to dry with compressed air gently..
Nevermind... I'm Tired and thought you were talking about a different issue...
So, my battery will charge to 100% and when I unplug it, it stays at 100%. Thing is, with the battery still showing 100%, when I plug it back in, it drops down to 99% and keeps charging. I've switched batteries, pulled batteries, deleted stats, etc. and it still happens. Any ideas or suggestions?
Thanks

Why would you plug it back in anyways if its already at 100%? Does it affect your overall battery life? If not don't worry about it.

Because when I'm sitting at my desk at work I leave it charging. And yes, my battery life is pretty ****ty lately.

When the phone is charged at 100% it obviosly stops charging but it still displays full charge, so when you unplug its actually discharged a little since it hit 100%.

Right, but it drops to 99% when I plug it back in. That shouldn't happen. It has never happened before, even when GB had charging glitches.

Theory:
When your phone is unplugged it uses the upper register during the battery drain until it meets a point where it changes to the next number. So after you unplug and your phone is draining battery it will still read 100% even though it is really going 99.9...99.8...99.7... until it reaches the defined lower register (any chosen spot not necessarily the next whole number) and then shows 99%.
When you plug your phone back in it uses the lower end and counts up. So even though when you unplug for just a moment and the charge is at 99.999% it reads 99% to let you know it isn't fully charged. It is charging that little bit.
