Hasn't been connected to the charger but I get these battery spikes. Happens more than I'd like.

I've seen it too.
Hey everyone,
My Nexus 7 (2013) is having the same problem with battery graph. There are about 2-3 spikes to 100% in every discharge cycle.
I noticed this problem has been reported in different cycles, but no one seems to be able to give a definite answer of what the source of this problem is.
BTW, after a reset to factory settings, the problem still persists.
ANY idea why this is happening???

You just keep referring to that forum without actually answering my question, even on that forum.

Hello, i don't see a question and answer forum so i am asking it here. My wife has a t-mobile Samsung galaxy 2 and the phone does not show the correct percentage and she has had the phone shut off because it ran out of power. Only if she charges to full and reboot does it work properly. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance. By the way the phone is not rooted.

Uhmm calibrate it. Pull out the battery for 5 seconds pull it back in... Then power it on. Male it to where so the phone shuts off completely then charge it too 100%

Oh and this goes in the general.. The reason why we dont have a Q and A is because the general section needs like 1000 post daily to get it. So thats why. Also and more question go to general for the time beingg

Are you using the original charger and cable? I had the same issue and it started working after I finally pulled them out of the box.
To answer your initial statement, anything that doesn't fall under development would go on the general forum.
That being said, I remember this issue being brought up by lots of members at the beginning. So, a search should give you some answers. I think rooting and trying out one of the great roms currently available here is the best way to go IMO. I personally recommend Juggernaut

i had a problem with the apps not showing the correct battery at first too when it wasn't rooted, but even before i rooted i found this app to work for me and it always displayed the right battery. like it never freezes the battery life while it is actually being drained.

Ahhhh
Sorry about that!
I usually search for problems before asking, but this time i forgot
Im still not happy with the battery life and so i was thinking it could be a related issue
Great phone when not used, battery sucks, other than that its a great quality product
So, again, sorry for the repost, i guess this is a think i have to live with
One last question, any way to calibrate my battery without rooting my phone?
You can try running it from 100-0 a few days in a row, that would help calibrate it
Hello everyone.
So my problem started few days ago. I flashed slim ice v3.9 and done upgrade to v4.0 day after. After that my battery just gone bonkers. First it do not display correctly inside settings>battery. It shows 1m but once you click on the graph it states 55m for example. It drains like crazy and most of the time shows charging.
I thought maybe something is wrong with the from so I flashed liquid and than come back to good old apex.
However the problem stayed through all of the rooms and settings. I have done countless reflashes and wipes but no joy. In all of the cases I have used Franco's kernel as I never had any issues and it was always good.
Any ides? Even now writing this I have charging icon on my battery but I am not charging it :|.
Regards

Hi, I personally didn't have those problems, but my friend had some similar. Try these tips, they are unrelated to each other, just random ideas:
Wipe battery stats in recovery
Try cleaning battery contacts
Clean USB with soft tooth brush
Check what exactly is eating your battery - it could just be some buggy app
Hi thx for the ideas. First three didn't work so far. I will give them another go later today. What app would you recommend to search for the rouge one? Never had such an issue so no clue which is best.

I use just the stock battery stats. But there may be better options.
Thx guys for the info.
Ill try BBStats later on.
So far i am not having big drain (lately about <1% ~ hour)
It is just that the charging icon is presistant. I have tried wiping and such and is still there. NOt really life threatning but just confusing/annoying.
Any ideas here? And small issue of the stock battery display/stat displaying completly wrong informations.
Regards.
hi again
Scrap the battery is ok now. Last night it draind 8-10% and hour 76% around 10pm and 14% 6:30 am this morning.
Than between 6:30 and 7:30 it drained all 14% while saying charging all the way along.
Shall i revert back to stock and re root?
Regards.

Just replace your USB charging board, and the phone will behave again.
Hi Guys,
I have spent days researching this, and have read dozens of forum posts, but nothing has worked. Here's the problem- I bought a used GNEX off of Craigslist. The phone looks great and seems to work well. But, it won't show a charge beyond about 70%.
I thought the battery might be the issue, so i bought an a new OEM extended battery, but the new battery didn't make any difference. It still won't show a charge above 70% no matter how long I leave it on the charger (with the phone turned on or off). I have done probably 20 discharge/recharge cycles, but nothing changes.
Next, I bought an external charger. When I fully charge the battery in the external charger and pop it in the phone, it still shows around 70%. So, it is definitely an issue with the phone (not the batteries).
I've also tried four different ROMs, as well as all the black-magic "battery calibration" tricks found in the forums, but nothing helps.
I am totally stumped! Is there anyway I can fix this?
Thanks!
Slim
Please HELP! More info.
Hi guys,
Just an update. Yesterday I tried three different kernels, just in case that might make a difference. No luck. The kernels didn't make a difference.
Any advice on how I can make this phone handle battery levels correctly? It's been on the charger all night and only shows 66% charge.

Same here !

Hey, Reza. How long has your GNEX been having this problem?
You might try returning to stock to see if eliminating custom ROMs helps.

Thanks. I actually already tried that. Took it back to completely stock, unrooted. No dice. The issue was still there. I am stumped!. I hope it's not a hardware issue.

Same issue here, i tried with another battery that showed 95% in other Gnex and in my gnex showed 60%.....
I'm getting crazy!
Definitely a hardware issue.

try an app named "BatteryCalibration" by marosige. When opened it shows the in circuit battery voltage. 3600-3700mV is to be expected from a well charged and in good shape battery. We seam to be having the same issues with mine having progressed to showing 0%. I have a recent thread here as well. I have read that the recovery battery stat wipe is just for the application level, but I think there must be a file or setting somewhere that maps mV to %'s and that this is what needs wiped/reset.
Anyone overhere still having issues?
I updated my thread on a similar if not the same problem, and am looking for some volunteers to help gather a little data. I would like for one or more persons to install SL4A and python, run a script and report findings. If you are willing please post a reply in my thread.
Thank you
Since the 4.3 update, my phone charges really slowly.
Sometimes it takes up to 5-6 hours to charge completely. I heard some Nexus 7 users are having the same issue too.
Anyone else experiencing it? Any solutions found for the same?
4.3 is awesome but the battery is killing me as it takes so damn long to charge.

I'm currently running PA 3.99 which is a 4.3 ROM, but I'm not experiencing slow charging. If you want to charge your phone faster anyway, either toggle fast charge or airplane mode. Or just shut down your phone for a sec, that'll also help a lot since you're not connected to any kind of network with the last to ways. Maybe let your battery die completely, charge it back to 100% in one run and repeat that a few times. Calibrate your battery and that might solve something as well, as your battery statistics might not be updated since you flashed a new ROM.
BTW: This is just what I do, you might already know all this, but it's just my 2 cents.

Read the OP. Your issue and his are totally different. But I am guessing your issue is still related to the charging port, check to see if the pin is out of place...
