Sorry I mean wipe battery stats. You wouldn't wipe if not at full battery or what?

No. Your phone will think the spot you wiped is full charge.

Not exactly. I have wiped the battery stats when my battery was less than 10%, and it didn't go back to 100%. Regardless, it was for reasons other than getting an accurate reading.
Can you wipe the battery stats at anything other than 100%? Yes.
Is there a good reason for doing so? I can't think of one. The reason for wiping at 100% is because it's going to be a fairly accurate place marker for obtaining accurate battery charge.

When is best to do this? I've read both at dead and at 100% battery. Can someone plz tell me which is correct?

There is no harm either way.
Today I was out using my nav app and things seemed really laggy. Without thinking about it I held power button in until phone powered down, at the time I had about 60% and when phone came back on I had 11%? I powered down by way of the reboot menu 4 more time and every time I would get a little bit more until it just stopped at 39%. Has anyone else had this problem?
P.S phone seems to be ok after full charge.
Have you tried running the battery calibration app from the market place?

Battery calibration app does nothing to our phones. Ask entropy he's explained it before. Also I have had that as well, but it will come back slowly, but should still be charged again

Hard to tell it could just be a power management fail
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I997R using XDA Premium App
well I let it get down to about 5% then gave it a full charge, and its working great now. funny how a battery pull and many restarts would not fix the problem.
Battery calibration does nothing on our phones.

This guy seems to think that wiping battery stats does nothing for battery life. Is this correct? Have we all been fooled?

I use battery calibration app from the market to wipe my battery stats after I fully charge my phone but when I change batteries it never shows full charge even though it is. Any suggestions?
I'm using PB 1.6 with T15 kernel

Wiping battery stats does nothing useful. More then likely the problem is from using generic batteries. I know when I switch to my Hyperion batteries. Try plugging in your phone or toggling airplane mode on and off.

Battery stats works for me when I switch roms... You don't want to wipe battery stats every time!
I don't know about you, but do you really need that extra 1~2% battery for a full 100%???
I have eb with faux kernel and usually I get it to 99 and in some cases 100%. Even at 100% I'm at 4175 mv or so when it should be at 4200mv.
Point is, your not going to miss that extra ~25mv out so of juice.
Check your voltage and let us know.

No what I'm saying is if I change my battery at 6% when I power back up it still says 6% at 4100 or so.

I only wipe battery stats after flashing a new rom.

WIPING BATTERY STATS DOES NOTHING USEFUL. The only thing it does is clears the settings app that tells you what's using battery. Why do people never listen...

Does that on every reboot doesn't it? No need to get hostile
Sent from my LG-P999 using xda premium
I'm not getting hostile I'm simply stating it does nothing useful. This has been confirmed by Google engineers as well. So wiping the battery stats will not change battery reading.

Did you try the two methods I mentioned in my first post?

I have a sgs2 with cm9.Everytime I reboot the phone I get a weird battery behavior (see attached) I've seen battery Calibration apps, and other day you have to fully charge and discharge the battery several times. Any other suggestions? Thanks

Try a custom kernel. But it looks like radio problem
Thanks! But what do you mean with radio problem?

The radio is used for call connection. If it's always on low signal it may drain the battery

Thanks, but it's not a problem with battery drain but with getting different values of battery level after reboot

Its a well known issue with the S2's. Only reboot when necessary. Clearing battery stats does nothing. It calibrates itself
