In Android, is there a way to tell my battery's health? I'm not talking about the current charge, I'm referring to the battery capacity to hold charge reported as a percentage of its design capacity.
Thanks!
Antutu battery tester. Its in the play store. Takes a while to test the battefy.

That's not quite what I'm looking for. I want a program that reads the chip in the battery that keeps track of so-called "battery stats" and can read what the current max capacity is as perceived by the battery's charging circuitry. Batteries pay attention to how much charge they can hold and report it back to the phone so you can still charge to 100% even when the battery is no longer capable of holding a full charge. Anything that has to "test" the battery is looking at usage, not true battery health.

As coming from a mechanic and electrical background. That test does give true battery state/health.
But there is also gsam battery monitor. And spare parts+ also shows battery state. Maybe I'm miss understanding what you want. Like in a car battery I have a tester that measures each batter cell to check, voltage, amp capacity, and overall health. Is that what your looking for?

I think Spare Parts Plus has what I want. I cleared out my battery stats yesterday, so I have to wait a few days before I'll know.

It should only take a day or less for the ROM to build new battery stats. But yes let the battery cycle a few times. Let me know how it worked out for ya.

Battery monitor widget (BMW) pro will tell you the current voltage, discharge and charging voltage, ma, %/hr usage, etc can't remember all the options but under active recording it monitors every thing in a graph and usage table so you can track the stats and health, it also tells you if the battery will no longer accept a full charge, but you have to manually put in your mah and voltage in settings so it can calculate the total voltage the battery should have at a full charge, if you don't put that in its baseline is 4208mv/full
We are legion, for we are many.

*#*#4636#*#* -> Battery information
Wiping battery stats does nothing, so there's no need to do so. It gets wiped when you reboot the phone anyway.

Use the android dialer code
go to your phone's dialer and type *#*#4636#*#*
Tap-> "Battery information"
and you should look where it says, "Battery Health: --------"
the ---- dashes will be substitute in your to with the state of health of your battery.

Go to the forums for your specific device and post there. This is the Samsung Epic 4G Touch forum ( SPH-D710 )
And when you do charge the battery and disconnect and the % drops, pull the battery out and put it back in and charge it again ( While Device Off )
Hi everyone,
does anybody know if the Moto Z2 force also has the same battery issue as stated in this thread for the Moto Z? https://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-z/help/issue-2-crazy-battery-behaviours-t3680766
Could somebody check if this batt_health binary is also excluded from running on unlocked bootloaders on our device or if it's even existing?
I definitely had the worsening capacity problem and the inability to boot phone under 30% charge problem on my Moto Z.
Kind regards
Me too (on old Griffin).
I arrived to be unable to power on up to 50% of battery (and Accubattery reported a capacity as low as 900mAh ) except that on bootloader mode...
And when I left it to an assistance center to change battery... they destroyed my screen...
I hope the quality on Nash would be better... (battery are different anyway...).
I will check into if that is working or not, currently estimated battery mAh is near correct...
Edit: XDA image derp: will show soon. Accubattery estimates near 2600 mAh (2592.2)
Edit 2: yes, it's there and populated. System/bin/batt_health

On mine are a bit higher: about 2630-2650 mAh with wireless charging by Incipio Mod and about 2710-2750 mAh with a (good) wired & "not-so-fast" charger...
Since of my experiences I think your lower values are because of stock charger doing fast charging...

That was USB charging. I left it on my Linux box for the day, so it was slow charging. Below is overnight fast charger estimate.

Well... one single charge with only 33% charged is not so significative (on Z2 partial charging often reports BIG battery estimates... I've just done one of about 25% which reports over 4,000 mAh... :laugh: )
Go with at least a week of various recharge of at least 65-75% to have significative results ...
When my old Z begun to have a dead battery I was able to charge up to 1,500 mAh with a slow charger BUT less than 1,000 mAh with its fast one...

My phone barely goes under 50% though...
It's better for batteries of this makeup to stay between 50% and 80%. Anything out of that range will drastically affect battery longevity. EG: my VZW M7, I got it pretty much the week it came out. Verizon had a BOGO deal, so the wife got one as well. She always drained it to 10% before charging to full. Hers started seeing shorter battery life after about a year when my battery was fine and it finally went out due to the known emmc defect three years later.
I try to make sure my phone is unplugged around 80% just so battery stats reset like they are supposed to after being taken off the charger over 80%.
In essence, charging 65-75% in one cycle hurts your battery if you're looking to keep the device for awhile since it is a pain in the ass to swap batteries now.
I know, but I was only talking about statistics point of view...
In fact I prefer slow charge whenever is possible and I follow Accubattery hints as more as possible...
I purchased my 5t about 4 weeks ago and the stats in AccuBattery are now showing my capacity at 2930 mah and the health at 89%. If accurate, these are somewhat concerning considering how new the phone is. Anyone else seeing similar stats? I ran AccuBattery on my Nexus 6p and it always seems pretty accurate.
That's the same capacity I get on my phone with AccuBattery. Other people on the OnePlus forums also had the same results so I think that it is probably normal.
I don't trust that application any more (even if I bought it 2 days ago). So i purchased my phone 4 days ago and after the second charge it says 89%.... Many battery applications are useless on the Play Store.
It is a little wonky on certain phones sometimes. Have you done several charge and discharge cycles? I know it definitely won't be too accurate until you run it a few times. Since you said you used it on your 6P though, I'm guessing you know this already. As long as battery life is still good, I guess I wouldn't worry too much.
I run Accubattery on my mine, it says 92% after a couple of weeks. Battery lasts for a full day of heavy use, and then some.
I also ran it on my 2 year old Moto X Style, and it said 51% - and I felt it was telling the truth, since I got about 2hrs SOT from it if i was lucky!
Same for me, showing about ~3000 mAh from the beginning.
It's also showing ~107% on a Nokia 3 of a friend of mine, so I guess you just can't trust the app on that perspective.
lol, guys
ok now, several factors to consider before you jump to conclusions (ive been using accubattery for several months now with great results):
1) your sample size is waaay too small. every scientist/engineer/mathematician, etc out there will tell you that u cant jump to a conclusion based on just two samples. give it some time, use the app regularly for several weeks and only THEN can you make assumptions about the accuracy of the collected data.
2) ive noticed that the final capacity reading is more accurate, the closer a charge cycle is to 100%. which makes sense if you think about current quick charging technologies: they provide high amperage at steady voltage at first up to like 75-85%, then they switch more and more to trickle charge with low amperage. advantages: fill up the battery quickly, but without putting too much wear onto it.
thus: if you just do a quick charge cycle, say from 30-50% then the slope steepness is way higher, thus the calculated capacity will differ. so there is a dilemma: either do large charging cycles with higher wear on the battery, but more accurate capacity data in the end, or do smaller charging cycles with inaccurate data but less wear on the battery.
3) when charging to 100%, dont unplug the phone when it reads 100%! rather check the current charging amperage in accubattery. only when that drops to zero (or -1 mA in my case) is the battery fully charged and ull get a more accurate capacity reading than when stopping the charge when 100% is reached. if you unplug it too early, the capacity calculation will be on the low side
hope this helps!
cheers

Yup, am scientist, can confirm
Same thing happened to me, even after using AccuBattery for a couple of weeks (and thus collecting more than a couple of samples, both Dash charge and "normal") it still showed 89% battery health at around 2940 mAh. Got my phone one month ago.
I don't think there's any problem with the battery itself, especially as it's not just me having this problem.
Maybe the battery is 3000mah and they are lying about it ???

I'd say 30% of the times 10 to 100%
40% of the times 30/40 to 100%
And the rest just random stuff: 50 to 100, some top ups here and there
This is not scientific data though, that's just what I recall from the couple of weeks I used AccuBattery. I'll try to find a screenshot but I doubt I have any.
I reinstalled it today and from a single 14 to 80% charge it gave me ~2930 mAh and 89% health. I'm on OOS 5.0.2 stable, will try the app for some time and share my results (more scientific this time)
After several weeks of use, the reading is still constant at 86% ~ 2827mAh. Not sure what to think. As previously mentioned the first 5t I purchased and returned for the 128gb version came in at 89% same as @Explyy. Is it possible I have an inferior battery?
hm, there indeed seems to be a pattern emerging with so many different users reporting identical capacity values at 2900-3000 mAh for their new op 5t. two possibilities: either accubattery cannot properly read out and analyze the 5t's battery charge controller. or the battery capacity is indeed around 2900-3000 mAh instead of the advertized 3300. its normal for battery capacities to be around -100 mAh from the official value, but -300 to -400 would be crazy.
guys, just to be sure: did you leave your phones plugged in until the charging rate in accubattery dropped to 0 mA? as i said before, if you unplug the phone once it shows 100% but still charging, the resulting capacity will be less than the actual one.

Yes, I left the phone plugged until the charging current dropped to 0, as I noticed that when it reaches 100 it's still charging at a few mA
On a related note I charged my battery from 10% to 100%, until the mA rate dropped to 0mA. I had the phone hooked up to a USB power meter during this time. The USB meter only read about 2500mAh charged. So since I only charged 90% of the battery I figured it should be around 90% the capacity of the battery, which is 2,970mAh. If I assume the battery is 3000mAh then a 90% charge would be around 2700mAh, closer to my reading. I'm going to run some more charge cycles and see if I get the same results.
Edit: forgot to say that I used a standard 2amp charger, not the dash charger that came with the phone.

Hello guys,
To offert at my battery the best treatment I'm looking for a lower amperage wall charger for my Pixel 2XL.
Between 1 and 1.5 Amp it will be excellent. I read some interesting suties about battery life and how manage it and fast charge is part of that.
Thank you all anf have good evening.
I am sure it will charge on either one, but how fast who knows? If you are rooted and have Magisk, download the ACC module and you can control your charging that way instead.

I am an electrical engineer, and have some knowledge about how Li batteries function.
I have always wondered this, I always see people mentioning that slower charging is better for the longevity of Li-ion batteries. There is always a trade-off here. Slower charging also means the battery takes much longer to charge, and the battery stays hotter for longer period of time, which should affect it's lifetime. Fast charging also does the same thing, but the temperature is much hotter but is exposed for shorter period of time.
Now these is merely a speculation on my part, I don't have any theoretical or experimental evidence to back this up - I think regular 5V 2A charging is a balance between those two scenarios.
Also, I recall that the peak charging current is limited in P2XL, so using the stock charger shouldn't harm that much either.
Pixel 2XL is my first smartphone who do not Come hot when it charge so...
But I know that high temperature are not the best things for battery in general.
And about the level of charge ? Some people said they stop at 80% to manage battery

I use a 5 watts charger and the phone stay completely cold during the charge process.
Also there was a recent 2017 scientific paper that tested what degraded the battery. It's a really interesting read with many tested model.
https://www.researchgate.net/profil...e-model-under-different-charging-stresses.pdf
Number 1 cause is high battery voltage at the end, second one is battery charging speed. Any speed faster than 1c will degrade the battery much faster.
This is why i charge at 5w plus stop charging at 80% (unless i know I'll need 100% that day, where i fully charge, but for my usage 80% is more than enough for the usual day).

I download AccuBattery and charge my phone from 25% to 80% max. The app detect directly the stock capacity of my battery (3520mAh) but after my charge, the new capacity estimated is 2982%. Is the first value is reliable or I have to do some other charges?
You have to wait for about 10 cycles. It says in the application something like that.
Hi guys,
For those having the A70, does the "Super Fast Charging" feature work for you ?
With the original provided charger (with the "Super Fast Charging" logo on it), I need 3 hours to go from 9% to 100%.
So that is 1% every 2 minutes...
I do not consider this a "Super fast". I think it is "Decent" but would not go above that...
For me, this a severe disappointment... Unless of course I am doing something wrong
Anyone else can share his results for Super fast charging here ?
Regards.
Your phone must have an error. Mine lasts about 1:20 to charge from about 15% to 100%.

Hi,
Thanks a lot for your answer.
The phone... or the charger maybe ?
Is there something to enable to have that "Super Fast Charging" ?
Or something to not disable ?
If I can solve battery drain (not really lasting as I expect) and this, I will think again about keeping the phone.
So far, it's more a non keeper

Hello . Do you charge it with the screen closed? Only then fast charging works! IF yes then something is wrong with either the cable or the charger .You could also try a factory reset !

Hi,
Thanks for the info => Super Fast Charging only with display off ?
So if I leave "Always On" it will not work ?
Maybe that is why...
Anyways, I did as you suggested : I have done a full factory reset, and I have installed the bare minimum of Apps.
We will see about battery drain an battery charging.
I'll keep you posted.

Hi Sufyan3D,
Thanks a lot for that info...
I've made sure that the fast charge is enabled.
So far, the device is still at 100% so I can't say if the problem is "solved", but I'll make sure to report if now it charges as it should
And also about battery drain...

That's correct! OK check it now and tell us! No battery drain, this thing is a beast! Keep us posted!

Hi,
So far, I cannot tell about the Fast charge.
But the phone is almost idle (really gently used) with "Always on" enabled.
It's been idle since about 3hours and battery is at 98%.
I consider this a rather good result.
Hope it'll stay as it is once I install all my apps...
If not, I'll try to track the culprit for the high battery drain.
Regards.
I have same problem, after reading your post, I drained my battery to 9% and charge, it so slow while charging.

Hi guys,
Well I think it is confirmed that my phone has a problem.
The battery drain is more than acceptable.
I drove my kid to school yesterday. It is a 80 minute trip to go there and come back.
While I drove her, I used the A70 as a GPS whilst it was connected to car audio with Bluetooth.
Battery drain in 80 minutes was a little less than 10% which is quite good I think...
Then I played a bit with the phone and went to bed.
This morning it still had 84% battery.
So that is about 2% battery drain overnight.
Not stellar but acceptable.
So I decided to hook it up.
The battery panel reports "Fast charging plugged in".
But after 40 minutes, I am still at 98% charge.
That means 40 minutes to get 10% battery.
I am aware that the last 10% are the longest, but still... 40 minutes for 10% ?
I will test with another charger to see if it is the phone or the charger...
Regards.

Download a free app called "Ampere" from the Play Store, to measure your charging current. Plug the phone into the charger then open the App to get the measurements. Post your result here and compare with other A70 owners.
App shows that my charging current is around 1100mah (with the 25w charger)
I landed here as I was surprised how slow my A70 was to charge. It takes around 3 hours to get from 15% to full, using the included Samsung 3A charger & original cable. Ampere shows the current trickling in at around 850mA. Super Fast Charging is enabled. My previous phone was a Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite which charged at around 2A according to Ampere.
PS I found this link which suggests most of the fast charging happens early in the cycle https://www.sammobile.com/2019/05/02/how-fast-is-samsung-25w-super-fast-charging
The Charger is rated at max 2.77 amps and 9 volts for fast charging. It will vary through the charging cycle though. Towards the end, above 80%, the charging will slow. How long does it take from 15% to 80% and what is the measurement in the middle of that?

Will need to measure that the next time I charge it as it's now at 100%! How long does yours take from 15 to 80%?

I've never tested it. I have fast charge turned off. I charge my phone over night. The battery lasts me all day every day.
Samsung A70 Failed!!
I think A70 is failed in all fields.
No porper GCam. And now batteries.
My device getting charged in around 4 hours with original cable and charger.
Now I think I invest 27k in wrong item. OnePlus 7 or realme 3 pro was far better than A70.
It's just name Samsung, nothing else. Blank box with tag of Samsung. Really disappointing with this.
Sorry to fans of Samsung devices. But I don't like this. After 2011 (Samsung Galaxy Y s5360), I think Samsung is better nowadays but I was wrong. I will never buy Samsung phone again.

I am not facing such issues in my device. Regarding development, for a device like a70, development is always slow. We have the source codes available. The only thing missing is developers onboarding to support the device. If at least 1 dev puts the kernel and device source codes and tree in github, I bet development will start soon after.

The Charger is rated at max 2.77 amps and 9 volts for fast charging. It will vary through the charging cycle though. Towards the end, above 80%, the charging will slow. How long does it take from 15% to 80% and what is the measurement in the middle of that?

I took some readings with Ampere during a charge:
0 mins 8% battery 4050mA
30 mins 38% battery 1060mA
60 mins 52% battery 1050mA
90 mins 66% battery 1020mA
120 mins 81% battery 1080mA
150 mins 91% battery 1000mA
180 mins 100% battery
So 3h from nearly empty to full which is not exactly fast. Is this in line with what others get?
