Only charging to 95%? - Nexus 7 (2013) Q&A

My tablet is telling Me it is charged but when I unplug it it's at 95%? Anyone else experience this?

Are you using the stock battery graph or a third party app? What ROM and kernel are you running?

That's normal don't worry about it, it will only charge to close to 100 then let it trickle down to about 95 then trickle up and repeat while it's fully charged and still plugged in, so you unplugged it after the device let itself trickle down to 95. That's all.

Or you can calibrate.. Get a battery stats calibration app.

What app can monitor the battery charge / drain rate?

Wondering if anyone have an app that works with the note in monitoring the charging rate? discharge is a bonus.
Check out BetterBatteryStats. Not sure quite what it shows about charging rate, but I know you can enable stats while charging from the advanced settings. Overall it is probably the best batter stats tool available.

What about battery indicator pro.
This one has a bunch of features. It should have what you are looking for.

I use battery spy. Shows the discharge and charging rate in % and also gives you an idea of battery amperage. Not sure if thats what your looking for.
Battery widget? Reborn

charging sound repeats

Why does my phone keep making the sound that it makes when you first plug in the charger over and over repeatedly, every minute or two?
Sounds like the cable is moving inside the port. The note 1 was plagued by this issue. Try wiggling it around to see if that was it.

Now my phone won't charge. The lightening bolt icon is on. But it remains at 12%

If you're plugged into a computer/laptop, drain is probably equal to the amount the kernel can pull from USB for power. Stock kernel has 500mA limit for USB connections compared to 2A wall connections.

Battery fast charge and discharge

I have prolem that phone discharges normaly from 100% to some 70% and then rapidly discharges from 70% to zero. Batt graf shows vertical discharge.
Similar thing when charging. It charges to some 30% for an hour and than from 30% to 100% in a minute.
I have read tons of threads, did batt cal, delete batt stats when bat was 100% and when batt was 0 % few times, did s-off, change bootloader, tried few roms. Always the same.
Is this behaviour because batt is dead? I dont have spare batt so before ordering new one I want to ask did somebody experience similar situation?
Thanks.

upload the graph, how old is the battery?
You can try another ROM and look if the problem persists though I guess that's not a problem of any ROM... I think it's the battery.

I will try to upload graph. I have screenshot of charging graph but I must dischage battery again and take screenshot because there is no discharging graph after wiping bat stats.
P.S. I have also try to charge while on, then turn it off, charge again etc. I found some manual.

Battery percentage not accurate.

Anyone have this issue on a 32gb. It won't say it's charging when it is. Also the battery will have the red exclamation point in it. But the battery will be fully charged. Now when you turn it off the battery will show charging but when it's on and plugged in it doesn't acknowledge it's being charged even when it is.....

Battery Issue

Okay at first I thought that i was having issues with the roms that would drain my battery but it always on slow charge, I tried so many different usb & wall chargers all the same & even when I have my phone on, the battery drains fast. Does anyone know how to fix this besides getting a new battery?

Are you trying different charge cables? That can make a difference.
Also... See my post here. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=49155732

My battery also drain so fast when using stock rom or custom ones.
Is that because too often trickle charging?
Sent from my Optimus G Pro using Tapatalk
That happened to me and I got it back to normal by changing the CPU settings to interactive.

I have used different wires still no change. So irritating to always have to charge my phone. Especially when i have to turn it completely off to charge & it charges slow.
Hmmm so change the cpu to interactive?

are you using the original charger that came with the phone or is it a generic charger? I had this problem with my previous phone, lg optimus l9. I used different generic chargers and a samsung charger and kept having the problem so I ordered an lg oem charger and it charged fine and didn't drain the battery after that. and try this battery app instead, betterbatterystats. you can download it for free here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1179809
I used them both generic & the one it came with but they are all the usb kind. It so frustrating... Thanks for the app advice i'm going to try it out & hope it works.

It fixed my problem. It doesn't hurt to try. Setting, performance, then change CPU from on demand to interactive. Good luck.
