Im using the HTC Evo extended battery. Li-ion 3.7v 3500 mAh battery. The problem is no matter how i try to calibrate it whether using hipkats methods or other methods it WILL NOT measure the full capacity. It never measures more than 1800 mAh. Right now its at 1589 mAh measured with 4233 mV as my max voltage. What is the max possible voltage for this battery? And is there any way at all to get the phone to measure the full 3500 mAh or even close to it? If so please tell me how.

You will not be able to charge any Li battery much more than 4.233 volts or 4.3V tops. Not sure about the methods.
Perhaps you need to reset the app or go into recovery and reset the battery stats.
Like "conductive" said. Go into recovery and wipe battery stats like 3 times. I think the battery must be full before doing it. Wait till it drains out and charge it back to full. Then check again.

Ive done that. That's part of the calibration process. Ive wiped at full charge, let it drain until it shut off from low battery and fully charged without the phone being turned on.

Nothing fixes it or even makes it register the full capacity of the battery...

3697mv is shown at 15% on Battery Calibrator. I already let it drain and then let it charge for 8 hours. Now I'm draining my extended from 100% for the first time.

It seems like it takes forever to charge my phone now how can I wipe battery stats?

Has nothing to do with battery stats.
It gets auto wiped when you charge your phone to a certain level to almost full.
If it takes too long to charge, get a 1000mah charger and don't use a 500mah one.
Hope it charging from the wall and not a PC

Data/system/ batterystats.bin just delete it.. Or boot into recovery and clear battery stats...you can check your cable or change the outlet at which you charge your phone, you might also want to check your battery for leaks which could potentially damage your phone..

I know it's necessity is argued but I'd like to ask if anyone has noticed a difference when wiping battery stats on this phone.

No. and please search. There was a big thing about this a couple months ago from a Google engineer.

I am aware about the statement from the Google engineer but I have read other anecdotes about it making the battery percentage reporting more accurate. I was curious what peoples' experiences are with this phone.

The battery stats have nothing to do with actual battery life but can make a difference in the reporting of the charge level to the operating system. The only time i've noticed anything more than a negligible difference was when switching from the standard battery to a 4400mah extended battery. Before wiping the battery stats and letting the OS 'learn' how much charge the battery was capable of the battery gauge would fall down to 3-5% normally and stay there for hours on end, with the screen on and playing FF3 at the time.

Thanks. I'll probably do it when I have some free time since my battery life seems a tad bit short from what it should be. I usually get it plugged in before it goes under 20% so I don't know how it behaves at single digit percentages.

So I have the anker 4400 extended battery and for some reason every time I charge it to 100. It works as normal but when it hits 90 percent it resets the stats. Does anyone have a solution for this ? I'm on the hyperdrive ROM.

So I have my S3 Telus 4.3 and I've noticed that it's been experiencing a serious battery drain ever since android 4.1.2. And when I use the phone while it's on charge the battery starts to decrease. I have to keep it on charge for hours without using it until it finally charges to 100%. And when I use it afterwards it instantly goes from 100% to 76% in 10 minutes.
Anyone?

I had the problem of my phone being charging and my battery draining. Switching my micro USB cable fixed it.
If that doesn't help, try clearing cache and/or wiping data. Maybe your battery is almost dead. Try all the variables. In the end the S3 will have around 3 hours of screen on time, those are the facts.
I was unhappy with my battery life so I bought the ZeroLemon 7000mah battery from Amazon. Highly recommend.

Switching to micro-usb?
No, switching cables, so if you have a extra micro USB cable (the one you use to charge your phone) try charging your phone with that instead of the one you're using right now.
