Hey guys who have experienced this problem?Battery percent stuck at 83% sometimes.

Like this,when you are using a Non-Original battery pack,you will have chance to experience this:

This problem happened since WM2003,when it happened,you will get 83% as top percent of battery,whatever charging or discharging.
Sometimes it will return 100% after reboot.

Backup or Main battery pack???

Main Battery,I'm collecting data

Yes I've been facing battery issues but nothing ever happened like this. Have you ever try Cotulla's BattClear app? It could work.

I had the same issue and some other similar issues but recently nothing happens. I am using the CHS version too.

Yes,I know many chinese user have experienced this problem......

ohh, I don't know, because I still using original battery pack
Can you give me Original Battery Meter???

since we use the same type of battery and as I see we have the same problems with it, what lifetime do you get from it? I get less than 24h. it's the chinese model of dynapack and it is supposed to be 1800mah

Dynapack 1800mAh????
fake battery...
original DynaPack only give 1200mAh...

well it looks just like dynapack,same serial number but it's made in china. i have another 2 batteies an original dynapack made in taiwan and a chinese one that i used for a long time and still it lasts more than 4 days. the problem with the indicator is because the cheap (fake) models don't use the original board but an emulator for it. and so you only get from it a constant 181 mah drain and 26 degrees celsius

these are my reading from the battery pack

Well,now I know why so many people in China have experienced this problem...
Seems it reported a fake capacity sometimes.
But the Voltage of Battery is true.
Reality 83% power never came with 4.1-4.2 Voltage.
83%*1.21=1.0043
82%*1.21=0.9922
Code:
if((BatteryPercentage<84) && (g_bTmpBatteryVoltage>4000)){
IsBatteryPercentNeedFix=TRUE;
}
if(IsBatteryPercentNeedFix){
BatteryPercentage*=1.21;
if(BatteryPercentage>100) BatteryPercentage=100;
}
Hope this works...

Happened again...
Seems my code worked.

i have a battery that has problems only with the indicator. temp, battery drain and voltage appears to work correctly but for some reason the phone thinks it drains faster than it is. it's kinda annoying since when it reaches to 0 it doesn't shut down but in closes tha main functions including the phone and camera. after a reset it shows the correct percentage but agains it drains to 0 in a short time. battery life is normal (3-4 days). Is there a way to override the battery app to somehow fix this ?

Hmm...
Yes, sometime I feel it too.
But, i don't know why, nowadays the trouble seems away.

it would be great if somehow we could patch the original battery app to return the percentage depending on the voltage and we could set the lower and upper values in mV to represent 0% and 100% and automatically adjust the scale. i think that would fix a lot of problems including damaged batteries that still have a working voltmeter

yea me too... happened to me recently, before upgrading my old magician... after upgrading it with cotulla's ROM, still encountering the problem, but it's no big deal...

Funny i don't own a magician anymore but was looking from nostalja & i find this, anyway cut to the chase i have an extended battery on Kaiser and have had the same scenario, all beit i pop battery give 5 mins and reinsert charge and all fine.
Just funny the 83% as i run 2700 and still same %.

[Q] Recovery + batt stuck at 99% with GREEN LED

Hi Friends i have sensation rooted as we all did and since then following issues :
1. Offline charging (Fixed).
2. Now the fone charges offline but it says batt full at 99% and led turns green. Never touches 100% now. ever since flashed recovery. both old and new.
3. I can confirm this on anker 1900 mah batt.
4. can any one else confirm this also.

Yes, this is true.... The LED turns green on 99% and never touches 100%. But i did not care much about it as I was more interested in flashing ROMS...though this is a problem.... I have also ordered Anker Batt... waiting for the courier...

I noticed mine did this last night. I just kept it plugged in and it eventually hit 100%. I took about 9 hours for it to hit 100%. Hope its not like that every time. Ill be finding out tomorrow.

well it hit 100 even when the led was green

I've noticed that the discharge is also a bit strange even on OEM battery. My battery varies very much. Sometimes when I reboot I get 5-10% more juice after boot without putting it to charge

yes same here....what can b causing it.....can it b smthing wrong in s-off procedure

Could it be something to do with the 2.3.3? Cause my battery acted strange even S-ON so I don't think it's the S-OFF procedure itself that caused this. Might be something something to do with battery drivers or something?

AFAIK Li-Ion batteries should never be charged to 100% because it shortens their life, most phones have a safety-mechanism to prevent overcharging.
Its intended to stop charging at 95% to 99%, but will almost always show that the battery is charged to 100% so the customer wont complain about it.
yes HTC is lieing to us, but for our own satisfaction.
So after we flashed the CWM recovery this "feature" is not there anymore and we can see the true charging state.
By plugging the power in and out over and over again to reach 100% you just damage your battery with those short charging cycles.
I read a interrestion thread about it in the Nexus S forums awhile ago and Wikipedia seems to confirm it.
I hope I could help you.

Battery dies then back to normal

I have an issue with my battery. Sometimes it starts to drain the battery VERY fast, like 80% in 20 minutes, then the battery dies and the phone turns off. But if I turn it on it starts with the ammount of battery it was before the crazy descharging, and the phone works as usual.
It is a pain in the ass because every night it happens, so I cannot set an alarm. Sometimes it happens in the day too.
It is upgraded to Android 4.0.4.
I forgot to say. I bought the phone and tried to update it. Something went wrong and the battery was low. So I coudnt use RSD tools anymore. So I opened the phone and did that force recharge thing to charge the phone up until it had enough energy to use RSD Tools again.

Might just need to clear battery stats. I'm guessing you didn't do a factory data reset after you took the update?

Hi. Yes I did a factory data/cache reset...
I cant see the pic i posted, so I will put here the link of it in google docs:

Hmmm. If you've done a full reset then it looks like it's an issue caused by the update itself. I've never seen a battery graph that looks like that.

its better to use battery calibrator app from market and use and u can also make 3 complete charge and discharge cycles and see ......if it still doesn't work then it should be a bad battery ......replace it
CHEERS
HIT THANKS BUTTON IF I HAVE HELPED

you should replace your battery

It's been shown that all of that multiple calibration mess is bunk. Except in the case of errors battery stats are cleared on reboot anyway.

A new battery would be a better option, ok try one thing , take off the battery and keep it in the sun for 2 hours, then charge it full .. Use this.. N seee

I had a similar problem with my second thunderbolt. Finally I replaced the battery and problem was solved.

The think you msut do is to replace your battery. Nothing else would work for a long time..

[Mbuynow] Samsung Galaxy S4 6400mAh Battery - Review.

So i've recently been after a bigger battery for my phone and decided to give the "Mbuynow 6400mAh S4 Battery" a go. The battery cost me £6.25 with free 1st class Royal Mail postage straight from the store itself. I will include a link below if you're interested in buying this.

The battery is approx. the size of two standard S4 batteries and weighs around the same. The battery has a nice, matte finish and feels quite sturdy too.
Upon inserting the battery into my S4 I noticed I had around 60% in there already and I instantly put it on charge. I left it to 100% and gave around 3 - 4 hours extra to charge to full capacity. Upon removing the battery seemed to drain quite rapid. Looking at my stats didn't show anything out of the ordinary and thus went along with it. Did a complete drain and charged back up, again battery rapidly drained. After reading the packaging that 5 or more cycles would be needed I carried on using the phone, charging once dead. I'm probably on my 3rd cycle now and did a factory reset to eliminate battery draining apps.
Enough of that, you're probably thinking "WHERE ARE THE STATS". Well I've managed to get my most upto date reading, and my best, which is 20hrs and still with 74% in there. I suppose I just need to give it time or the fact it's a defective battery. I've e-mailed them and they have agreed to send me a replacement so hopefully this will be better. I will give an update on what is to come. This is with partial use, not much. I left it on over night with the sound on mute and screen brightness on full and hardly used throughout the day.
Conclusion
This is something I can't really conclude until testing the replacement battery. Battery seems good but I don't think you're getting as advertised and it's more likely going to be a 4500/5000mAh battery. I mean for £6.25 I suppose what can you expect. Personally, I don't think it's been worth it for the £6 but in my point of view I could have received a defective unit. But for £6, it's a nice spare battery you can take along for rides and might give you a bit more juice compared to the standard 2600mAh. Providing the replacement is better then I maybe able to say it's worth it but £6 for a battery isn't bad at all. Personally, spend your money elsewhere and go for a proper ZeroLemon, Anker or Hyperion battery.

[Q] phone shuts off before 0%

Hi, Is there any full proof method of fixing my phone battery so it shuts off at 0%?
My bacon shuts down at 8% - 4% usually.
and when it does shut down it blacks out. I don't get that pop up with a spinning circle saying you're phone is not shutting off.
Well, unless thats how the OPO shuts off by just immediately blacking out?
I checked to see if it was because my undervolt, so i brought back the voltages to stock, and unfortunately, the problem still remained.
I know you arent suppose to run these batteries dry, but it just irritates me that it would shut down at the 8% mark.
So any suggestions and fixes would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks

If you know that, then why the hell would you want to do it just so that you damage the non-replacable battery and potentially leave yourself with a brick?

The battery percentage displayed on your phone isn't exact, not at all, it's only an estimate based on the voltage level it's detecting at the battery. So if your phone shuts down at 4% it really isn't a big deal. If it's bugging you so much you can use a battery calibration app from the Play Store to try to re-calibrate the battery.
But, if you're letting the device get that low regularly, which it seems like you are, you're damaging the battery. You even admit that you're aware of this. So why do it? Running a lithium battery down regularly decreases its capacity, just like keeping it at peak voltage too much does too. So it's entirely possible that what you're experiencing is a symptom of your own bad battery usage behavior.

Gee, I don't know
Maybe I like to see a full screen on time, testing kernels and roms?
or maybe, I didn't expect my phone to shut down at 8%, so I wanted to see if it wasn't just a one time thing because the unknown piques human curiosity
Maybe as a newer model phone, I'm putting some faith into solid build materials from the phone?
My nexus 4 has been run down many times naturally being at school or work and what not, and the battery still runs like a champ.
Useful sentiments here
