Hello,
one needs to do a battery change every time wipe battery stats?
Or is it normal for batteries discharged at different rates?
Thank you for the answers.

For my HTC Hero, people on the boards recommended wiping battery stats and fully draining the battery for a couple of cycles.
Is it recommended for the Gtab as well? Are you able to wipe battery stats on this thing?

If you flash clockworkmod you can wipe battery stats.
What exactly does wiping battery stats do? My gtab never charges past 97%. Would this re-calibrate it so that full charge showed 100%?
It's not even a minor annoyance so I'm not intetrested in anything requiring me to drain completely but if this is a simple fix I would give it a go.
I have the same problem...battery won't charge past 96%. I've charged it overnight and wiped battery stats with no success. Any ideas how to fix this??
Vegan 5.1.1
Same issue here, sadly. First time charging, it got up to 100%. After that now though, it stops charging at 98%. No amount of bump charging, battery stat wiping, draining battery, etc, has seemed to work.
It charges to 100% when using it while plugged in. I mean if it matters to you to see the big 100 once in a while ;-)
Not for me, lol. Meh, not a HUGE deal, but kind of a bummer.
Mine has the same issue. Charged overnight while powered on and while powered off and the highest the battery meter reads is 98%. I have attempted to wipe the battery stats, completely drain the battery, and wipe user data- all to no avail. While slightly irritating, it really seems as if the battery is functioning normally and the breakdown is simply the calibration of the software. I am easily getting 6-8 hours depending on usage.
Mine did that as well in the beginning, but after a bunch of good charge discharge cycles charges to 100%.
Hi there guys, im trying to calibrate my battery (Stock 1530) using battery calibrator. I have two questions.
1- is it better to discharge my battery then use Battery calibrator to calibrate it or turn off phone and charge over night and power on> recovery and remove Battery stats bin?
2- why my battery at times says 4215 and at times 4209 when its full? can someone describe the right battery volts value to me, thx!
1. i dont use battery calibrator, but charging overnight and wiping battery stats is the way to go.
2. there's no such thing as a "right" voltage. li-ion batteries never charge to their full design capacity. what you should look out for is the current. your battery is full when the current decreases until it settles on a low value. the charging will then stop and you'll notice the current goes to negative.
I have a weird question about wiping battery stats. I know when you flash new roms on android, it's usually preferred to charge to 100% then go into cwm to wipe battery stats. Is there a way to do this to the dock as well? Would this even need to be done? Just wondering....
Don't bother wiping battery stats... it does absolutely nothing.
i am planning to buy a 1800mAh Mugen battery and i was wondering if the battery percentage would show properly on my phone? if not would wiping battery stats fix this problem?

$I have one and runs perfect
Percentage meter is just based on the voltage that your phone associates with fully charged and empty. When you get the new battery, just recalibrate the battery meter by charging to 100%, draining to 10-20% (not 0%) and repeat a couple times, and you should be good to go.
Wiping battery stats just clears the usage data, that gets cleared anyway when you charge the battery.

Can you guys recommend a battery calibration app?
Currently im using ViperSaga, and yes we all know that our DS can live for a day or two depends on the usage.
Battery calibration by wiping battery stats is a myth. After 2-3 charge cycles, the indicated battery level will be as accurate as it ever will or can be.
Battery booster maybe ?
AOSP developer Dianne Hackborn has made it clear that battery calibration is a myth. It only mean deleted the battery stats. And your device does that on each reboot.
how about the wipe battery stats in the recovery? does it help the calibration of the battery?

Battery calibration does exactly that. It wipes the battery stats. And that is something your phone does automatically on each reboot.
Deleting stats is pointless indeed, but the battery calibration procedure that involves a discharge/recharge cycle, not only deletion of the stats file helps to have proper % indication that cannot happen on a Stock ROM which is the case the Google engineer is talking about. But when flashing custom is another story, then a wrong indication can appear after flashing and it has to be corrected

Though you can leave out wiping the battery, stats, the charge/discharge cycle is what helps.

Yes, including the final charging of powered off phone, that was posted in several threads lately by the same user
