Battery status jumps from 70 to 100 ?? - Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

My Desire battery while charging the status jumps from 70 % to 100% immediately.
I have been using battery calibrator application.
If the battery is fully charged, my desire turns off at 30%. That means in anyway my desire only uses 70% of the battery.
:cryingls help me

try this
Charge till full when powered on
power off
charge till full again
boot into recovery
wipe battery stats
boot and continue to use as normal

Thanx... Will try this...

Sorry.. I missed the last step in my previous post. Allow the battery to drain completely before charging again..
Sent from my HTC Desire using xda app-developers app

yh, in the app once u check the boxes in settings and set the values in learn prep, turn on learn mode and drain ur battery, once it hits the value, a popup screen will say learn mode detected, plug in charger. (or something like that) just have the charger ready coz u only got a few seconds to plug it in then it shuts down lol

Nothing works for me... I followed the battery calibration steps.. But fails.. Still have the same issue...

Do you have these problems when you charge via usb or directly from the plug? As the second procedure is much faster, you can have some erroneous battery capacity readings from time to time, especially in (not really old but still bit) aged batteries.
Try before using the calibration tool the following: When the green LED appears, sign of a full charged battery, unplug your charger and turn off your phone for 3-4 minutes (you can even pull off your battery for a while). Turn it on back on, plug the charger and wait until fully charged. At this point reset your battery stats through the calibration app.
edit: oops, it is essentialy the first solution posted but without going into recovery. The calibration tool does this automatically for you.

I have the opposite problem
My charging is quite accurate but while discharging, the phone suddenly dies at a random battery level below 20%, without becoming close to zero

[Q] Help!!!...my Battery Drains like crazy!

my battery drains fast and i dont know what to do.
ive installed juice defender and did everything else to limit the battery drain as much as possible.
one thing ive noticed is that my screens brightness is set to low, but on my battery stats it says Display 64%
and recently my system says 30%
i left my phone on the charger overnight. and it got unplugged from the charger, when i woke i looked at my stats and the display was at 64%
the phone signal bar was filled and it was bright yellow.
and my system said 34%
can anyone help me?
When you plug it into a wall charger, can you confirm its charging AC and not USB
How old is the battery? Have you checked all the software that are automatically sync ?
I think that you must dig deep on what's your battery being used and consider the age of the battery in there too

There are battery monitoring apps that you can find to monitor unusual activity.
Now your display is at 64% which is very peculiar.

Could it have something to do with sense?
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
Try System Panel, it's in the market. Best app I've found for monitoring battery consumption, especially when you need more details than the About Phone section under settings provides. It is a premium app, but cheaper than a new battery. Hope you find a solution quick! Battery problems are a pain.

Have you tried calibrating your battery? Charge to 100%, then boot into recovery and wipe battery stats (or you can use the Battery Calibration app). Let the phone discharge fully - don't plug it in until it dies - then charge back to 100% without breaks.
It could also be an issue with your usb cable or charger. Sprint can run a test on the battery to see if it is the problem. Try calibration first to rule that out, and never wipe battery stats unless you're fully charged.

What I just did was downgrade my radio one. My battery has been so much better in life. I am at 7 hrs right now at 66%. I have been using 4g, texting, and sending emails. Currently running Decks 1.3, SZ 2.2.1 CFS Havs.

Have you tried re-calibrating your battery?
Yeah dear I have tried but battery celebration apps required 100% charging for celebration.. but my device has always showing under 60% charging that's why its not works..

Sent from my HTC Wildfire using xda app-developers app
Is it in your status bar that it shows the incorrect value?
Try going to Settings > About Phone > Status
It should tell you the correct value there. If it still shows up as the incorrect value i believe it could be a problem with your actual battery.

In your case, you don't need an app for calibration. Since you can't get your phone to show correct status, reboot into Recovery, go to Advanced and Wipe Battery Stats. Reboot phone, Run Wifi, Bluetooth, Torch, Music and anything that could drain battery faster altogether until the battery runs down and switches itsef off. Try recharging and see the result.
Hope it helps.
Cheers.
Thank u so much to all of u..
I,ll do it and see the results.. :beer:

May be its a mobo fault but this is truth that I am facing this issue after flashing cm7.2..!

i have been experiencing the same problem with the battery .. doesn't seem to get past the 70% mark. I started noticing this few weeks into using CM7 ( currently using CM7.2 RC3 http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1698029 the issue still remains) At first i found out that if i reboot my phone after putting it to charge , it would charge all the way to 100 %. But slowly that too started fading and now nothing i do gets it above 70%. even got a new battery to no avail, and i cant get more than 5 to 6 hrs with the battery .. the battery drain is incredible
am i using an incorrect kernel or something ?? any help is appreciated .. thanks in advance !
My opinion is its something to do with your phone itself, if it was software/kernel related we would all most likely get the same problem as we are all using the same piece of software.
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium
I too have this problem mine does not charge beyond 79% sometimes 75%. With my experience this is too do with the kernel that CM7 uses. If I restart the device it will show 100%.
If I go back to the stock kernel the charging goes all the way to 100%.
Either my charger has broken or its the overclock-able kernel.
I have tried every other method out there.
The battery performance is good BTW.

[Q] Not showing proper Battery states

After rooting my wildfire s, i'm not able to charge my battery to 100%. It always shows between 70 to 80 %.
I tried using my battery in my friends cell phone (wildfire s) and it shows 100%.
& again tried using my friends battery ( which was full charged -100%) in my cell phone.. it shows around 67%.
Please help me what is the problem. I can't understand.
Use the battery fully.
Shut down the phone.. charge the phone continuously to 100% while switched off and using original charger.
Boot into recovery.
Wipe battery stats.
Reboot.

thats strange after clear battery stats it should be working.
try another rom i guess.mostly stock is very stable but you might get some luck.

[Q] Won't charge beyond 57%

For the last 2 days my HOX refuses to charge beyond 57%, I haven't got anything running in the background which could be sucking up the energy as it tries to charge, does this sound like it could be a fault with the battery?
Have you tried battery calibration tool? or reset battery stats etc

I always charging my phone when Off and never had any issue. Also doesn't matter where I am and what time, as soon as battery shows 5% switching it Off before reaching 0%.

[Q] [ION]Very rapid battery drain. Instant 90% to 70% change

hi,
My Xperia Ion has been a bit strange recently. I would leave it over night after a full charge and is would loose 10%. that's ok. But once I start using it at some point shortly after the battery would instantly jump from 90% to 70%. This also happens when I reboot the phone. It would reboot missing 20% to 30% of its charge.

It's not Sony's fault.
If you want to calibrate your battery safely, you have to do this. This is for all devices.
