That is not a problem,happens in every jb Rom.

That is not a problem dude. Ours is a newer type of battery( I forgot the name).
In these kinds of batteries charging up to 100% actually damages the batteries. You must not charge your battery above 85% to be safe.
What manufacturers do is that, they implement hardware tweaks such that above 80%, the rate of charging becomes slower and slower.)you must have experienced it) ..
As an additional step to this, devs, even cyanogen, puts the green light the moment the battery reaches 90%. This may not of much help, but it does motivate some people to take the phone of charge.
Of course, this was a hell lot of extra information, but anyways, know that it is not a problem

Wrong post bro and please tell us the ROM name not just "i just love this rom" and get a new battery they only cost 15-20 on ebay
People complain about battery way too much. If your at school, your supposed to be learning, If your at work your supposed to be working. The only time you go on your phone is if someone calls and maybe to text. If you use your phone this little while your at work or school, then your battery should be perfectly fine. If your at home using your phone like a hobo that never touched an iphone, then you should have a charger. if you use your phone for navigation and it uses a lot of your battery, then get a phone charger. Also, roms do not affect battery life. The only reason it may seem so is because your battery meter needs to readjust itself after flashing.

First charge

Hey guys! Just gotten my note 2, and gonna drain the battery down soon, should I plug it in and charge for 8 hours straight from zero? Should this be done with the phone off? Or this doesn't matter anymore?

Doesn't matter anymore...
I usually do it. Zedomax recommends it, and it doesn't hurt anything to do so.

This is not needed anymore.
if the battery takes to long to kill then simply its already calibrated
many people don't know how a none-calibrated battery acts and think "battery life is great but it will get better later!"
if anyone of you happened to have a nokia phone in year 2000ish and still have it around i recommend you to go get a replacement battery for it and see for your self
unless the new battery jumps from 100% down to like 80/70% in no time then take too long to drain from 10% or something like that (in short battery acting weird)
then its already calibrated which is the case in all new phones/batteries
TL;DR
unless the battery is acting weird and not taking too long to kill then you dont need to do that

Thanks a lot I got my retail set from a carrier, so glad to have joined the note 2 community coming from the s3 :X so I just charge it up to full as per normal yes?
Sent from my GT-N7105 using xda app-developers app
This charging a long time first usage is also an old thing from the old nicd and nimh batteries..
in fact li-po and li-ion wont even charge after they are done, overcharging them means they explode/burn or get damaged.
there are built in safety features to prevent that.
and pulling it down to 0% means nothing since modern nimh, li-po, li-ion batteries don't got the memory effect.
actually going down to 0% would only test if the low voltage cutoff works as it should or if you damage your battery.
no need for that!

Batteries that comes with the latestmpgones these day do not need to be charged for 8 hours!
Just charge it till its full and continue to enjoy it!
You can preserve the life of you battery by not fully charging it and you can damage it by draining completely. I've no source for this information.

[Q] Is it bad to keep One V connected to charger

I don't want to go too much offtopic in the PACman ROM topic as my questions have no more nothing to do with ROMs, so I make a new topic, maybe too asked, but with One V, is it safe to keep it plugged to charger all night, I mean does it make any bad things like ruin battery or something, no I am not talking about overcharge, but still should it be good, or is it bad to keep the phone plugged to charger all night so it would be ready at 100% on morning. I did read that batteries dont actually charge 100%, said it charges usually about 90-95% and that is why the first 10% will drain faster as it really is 90% instead of 100%. Is this the thing what happens with One V too, so can i keep it plugged in charger? Does it make battery life worse?
leaving your One V charging overnight IS Overcharging...
So... no, it's not a good idea to leave it charging overnight...
Everybody says its not the good way to charge the mobile over entire night. Haa haa from 6 years I do keep charging my cell over entire night. It doesn't make any difference to me.

I still am doing this and i think it it doesnt overcharge, but i am wondering does it make battery life worse as someone said so. If not, i guess i will continue my current way to charge, but i do know it doesnt overcharge. The thing i want to know is does it make battery life worse.

No,nothing gets worse
yes it does..
my friend has a galaxy note and he used tp keep it overnight for charging and his battery got swollen soo its better to not take a risk.. unless ur a rich **** and willing to shell out

I agree. It's not good to overcharge

Now, what I found was:
"HTC One V - battery charging questions
Should be fine, the batteries use Lithium cells and have pretty good built in overcharge/run down prevention. They are designed to be left on the charge overnight and collected in the morning. They will charge rapidly over the first 1-2.4 hours (assuming a 3hr charge cycle) then slow down. Eventually it will just bounce off 100/99% as it charges/discharges." - from HTC...
"This "smart charger" is built into the phone. It slows down when it gets near capacity. In fact I think even the LED light goes green to indicate it's full at around 95% if I remember rightly (I read it on XDA."
"Advanced state-of-the-art internal circuitry protects the HTC One V from power surges, overcharging, and short-circuiting, to significantly extend the internal battery lifecycle."
"Is it OK to leave my battery plugged in, even if it is fully charged?
Yes, it won't hurt it as long as the battery doesn't overheat.
Source: http://www.batteryuniversity.com/partone-14A.htm
Should I remove the battery from the charger when full?
It does not matter. The charger automatically cuts the charge current when the battery is full."
So, after all that, whom to believe?
sooo after all experience is to believe and your surrounding persons and their experiences.. I've got my friend's note's battery swollen soo i wouldn't take a risk.. after all its your choice

Honestly I've owned a galaxy vibrant, Huawei ideos, vs2, optimus v, and this one v and I've charged all over night and none have suffered battery life issues. In my opinion no not a big deal lol

why would you need to charge overnight? are u on stock? in that case you might as well leave it overnight to charge......FYI my One V takes only 90 mins to go from 10 to a 100%

Make sure that your battery is not bloated/'pregnant'.

Yeah check the battery status. I had the same problem 3 months ago. I was forced to buy a new one.
Re: Please help with my battery problem..>.<
Your problem is NOT ROM related. The poor battery is a common issue with the W. I had my W for just over a year, and when it was claimed by my Son, it was on it's third battery....and I can confirm that I was experiencing similar performance issues to you.....the first battery failed while I was still running stock GB, so again I say your ROM has NOTHING to do with it....
Even if your battery isn't bloated, the fact that it's giving such poor performance is a clear indicator that it's time to replace it......

I had exactly the same sort of problem recently, especially the inconsistent battery level, although for me it showed up most often when taking photos using the flash.
The bottom line is that the battery is totally stuffed and needs replacing. I spent weeks trying to sort the issue out and no matter how many re-flashes of the ROM and full calibrations of the battery I did, the only cure was a new battery.
As soon as I had a new battery fitted and fully charged all the problems ceased straight away, I now get 1 - 2 days of use from a full charge and no random shut downs.
The old battery had started to swell, but was barely noticeable unless the battery was laid on a hard, flat surface which highlighted the bulge that had started to form near the bottom of the battery.
that's why unless you need to travel or are expecting a full day without access to a power plug, charge your battery to around 60-70%. This will reduce stress on your battery and it will bloat in a much later time xD!
on a side note, current rating of chargers will only affect the charging rate of your battery and will not cause any problem to its battery life. so high current charging is good ! (by high i mean 1A or 1.5A instead of the current 0.7A ones that Samsung gives us)

[Q] How to force LED Off on htc wildfire ?

Hey guyz, my phone's battery only charges upto 33%. I mean it shows this much when i almost fully charge it. And then from this, it races down to 15% in one hour and with 15% i can get a day.
The problem is that all the time, the red LED light keeps on. Since now i donot care about 15% low battery danger, i dont need the LED to be on.
So how can i Force Close it ? Maybe it might save more battery if led doesnt blink and wont annoy anymore.
Im on Cm7 latest nightly.

Well, in theory you could delete the driver for the led, or find where cm tells the battery to talk to the led and remove it. You should make a nandroid backup before attempting anything though. Or, you could get a new battery?
