I was just now at 20% battery, turned off the phone to install a recovery and rebooted and battery stats said it was on 96%??
Did something mess up in the installation process? Is there a way to reset battery stats and calibrate the battery?
thanks
Supposedly holding vol up and down along with power button during boot up for 2 mins clears battery level memory...I had to go through that process for battery drain/not reporting correctly and that's what HTC tech had me do. Seemed to work and battery usage seemed to level off...ymmv...good luck

After using odin to go back to ec05 and returning to srf 1.2, everything was pretty stable and I am pretty happy with the result. Today I had something strange happen, I booted up voltage controll and it said it was asking for super user rights like it always does except it was just hanging there thinking. Also my albums in my picture gallery would not load. So I held the power button down and chose the reboot button not the turn off. When it booted back up my battery said it only had 5% left, before reboot I had 35%. So what the heck, why would it do that.
First, did u update super user in market, and then go into super user app and update the binary?

Its an improper display if you boot into cwm and wipe battery stats it would have showed the proper battery also next time you charge your phone play with it once it reaches 100% and leave it on the charger for an extra 20-40 minutes and then you battery should be back to normal. Side note get off of froyo where no longer in the dark ages bud

It is a bug that has been reported hundreds of times. Plug into a charger and reboot back to where you were or leave battery out for 5 minutes and reboot. Wish people could search for this but know the search function is not great.

Yeah, but that is not the OPs issue. There is a bug in CWM and the battery stats that when you reboot below a certain percantage...let's say 70, it will incorrectly drop to a very low percentage. This is easily avoided by rebooting connected to a charger or can be resolved by removing the battery for a few minutes. It will go back to where it was. All the wiping and recalibrating in the world will not resolve this bug. It is just a glitch.
Hi,
So for the past week.. My phone's battery has been dying before it goes to 0%.
It started at dying directly at 20%.
It has gotten worse but today for example:
Charged overnight about 7 hours, went from 30% to 78%.
Used the phone for about an hour, died at 69%.
Tried to boot up, booted and showed 64% before it died in like 15 seconds.
I've done full charges, wait 30min, and wipe battery stats.
I've done full charges while phone was off, wiped battery stats.
Nothing seems to work.
Sometimes it does after 1hour at like 70%... sometimes it does after 6hours at 20%.
And those are all after a continuous 7hour charge overnight.
does anyone have any tips please?
thank you
I'm assuming you're rooted unless there's an app on the market that can wipe the battery stats without root (though i doubt it) so that being said, what ROM are you running? Do you have a stock battery?
I'd try a new battery. Or as previously suggested, re-flash, or try a different ROM, if you are on a custom ROM. There is obviously something going on that clearing battery stats is not going to fix.
If you are rooted and have ClockworkMod Recovery, power off the phone, and hold down the power button and both the volume up and down rockers until you get to HBOOT screen, scroll down to Recovery and press the power button again, and the phone will boot into Recovery, using the trackball go to Advanced and then go to Wipe Battery Stats and then press back and reboot your phone.

To put it frankly, that won't do a thing. I had never been someone to have any luck with the wiping battery stats solution and recently a google employee had released a statement saying all the battery stats were was what told you what apps took how much of the battery. Wiping stats will do nothing other than wipe the info on what is causing drain. This seems to be a battery or ROM problem.
Hello,
Yesterday i put my Desire HD on charging via the computer and everything was good, I woke up and found out that my phone is dead and the led indicator keeps blinking red light, put the battery in and out a few times, try to charged it a bit but same result, i can't turn it on or do anything.
Suggestions?
Thank you very much!
hi there are you using stock battery, if you are you might have a dead battery broblem, try to change battery but before you do that take the battery out leave it for 10 min then insert battery back into phone power + vol down enter booloader navigate to recovery and wipe battery stats then reboot

Thank you, it seems like taking the battery out for a few minutes did solve the problem, thank you very very much!
I haven't wiped the battery stats but at least now it's on so I can do it later.
Thanks again!
No problem friend, there is no risk in wiping battery stats, that might be the cause if it is corupted

I got the 4.2.2 sense 5 update on my htc one x . I'm just noticing one strange thing... As I switched off my phone with power save on + fastboot on, power saver on + fast boot off, power saver off + fast boot on(this took time to shut down like proper shut down), both power save and fast boot off, all the possible way, but when I go to power setting in all cases, I see that in "history" that time is not starting again, its already high like 1 hr some minutes going more n more still, like the phone was never switched off properly!
I know earlier in 4.1.1 if power save weather off or on, but in fast boot on the phone is not properly shut down... but if fast boot is off then the history refreshes which use to tell us that the phone was properly shut down. But in above case nothing is working!!
Is it a big problem of battery drain or anything, Any accurate clue please ?
I have not done factory reset, but have done clear cache partition ... still nothing....
Should I factory reset then ?
hold the power button for 5 sec...it should reset the phone

You mean the soft reset?! That makes phone restart?! If yes then that's also not working

try the batt test frm the test menu(*#*#3424#*#*)...
it's fine now, I did a factory reset and it did reset the history time (my battery was low that time) . After that when I switched off my phone and powered it back on (with power save on and fast boot off) still the history time was picking up from where it stopped . So I kept my phone on charging, didn't even do the wipe cache partition or anything . And as I woke up today, I switched off and turned on again and history got refreshed and even restarted in same settings and again history got refreshed!! Yuppie its all perfect now and after factory reset its still all super smooth!
Just battery was draining little fast, then I noticed there's a hidden facebook update, after that update the battery drain is happening slower like really normal, still maybe if required a patch might do better .
Thank you all still!
Battery stats reset when the phone is charged to 95% I believe

you are absolutely right, its something like that for sure.... as now when my battery was around 55% and I did restart in power save on and fast boot off,,,, the history time did not refreshed... so I guess its nothing to worry about and its little less than normal drain for me and gets very normal drain after 70% ! its I think htc made Something new to make things ready for us fast, which is making battery drain little faster on hox being 1800 mah, but would not be impacting much on htc one m7 I believe .
I have no Idea what happened. Title says it all. So here is what happened, I was about to launch a application and my system UI crashed (happens once a time) so I pressed the lock button to see if that fixed the problem but it didn't. So i took the battery out, waited a few seconds, and put the battery back in. When the phone started my battery was at 43%. Do I need to calibrate my battery?
