[Q] Battery not charged to full - Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)

Noticing that my phone will display at 100% but when i power off and plug charger in it doesnt show 100% and will take about 20-30 minutes to get to full charge. Was wondering if anyone else had this issue? and if theres any fix id really apreciate it i have calibrated battery through app and cwm.
Running VB with as 14 and tegrak settings from the tegrak thread in themes and apps.

Its known that offline charging will allow more charge into the battery. With the phone plugged in and being used it will slightly discharge and unless you leave the phone alone during charging it will not completely charge. This includes background services like email/gmail, facebook, sms/mms, any other apps you have running.

Drain battery app?

Hi all,
is there an App to make the battery fully drained (benchmarks, for example?)
Useful for having the battery circuit reset after some charges...
You could just let your G1 stream music over wifi - for example using DroidLive lite from market. Constant usage of wifi should drain your battery really quickly
Another option is to play a movie - the player keeps the screen on so you'll just be able to leave the phone alone and do something else while it plays.
you know that charging the battery (even when it has more than 80%) is not really damaging your battery?

3 day battery life on my D2G???

My Droid 2 Global is currently at 2 day 16 hours of uptime since unplugged, standard battery, moderate usage (some gaming, some phone calls, some syncing, some data connection, regular music listening)... and it still shows 40% of battery life left...
So, how did it all start?
I have followed some of the suggestions from the Battery Life Writeup thread
1. froze most of the bloatware in Titanium Backup (except for the Global apps)
2. set screen birghtness to Auto
3. set the battery profile to Custom
4. wifi and data disabled unless i need it, background data on
5. animation - all off
...
6. finally, i flashed the phone to a local CDMA provider, CDMA mode is set to Home Only, and 3G is off unless I need it.
7. i additionally killed and cleared data of the motorola services via built in android app manager
... but that helped only marginally, as I was getting 1.5 days max under minimal use
Until one day... I charge the phone in the morning, use it heavily throughout the day - music + data + phone calls... and it's dead in 12 hours. (( I actually shut off on me in the evening the same day during the phone call... I kinda got frustrated with this phone, since it wouldn't even last through the day when i needed it ....
... so I plugged it in while it was turned off, it charged fully, i unplugged the phone and turned it off before going to bed, now let the WTF begin :
WTF#1: So, I pick the phone up in the morning and it's still @ 100% after like 10 hours of standby (needless to say it usually loses 30% of battery overnight). I am like ok.... must be a batter meter lag.
WTF#2: I use the phone normally for the entire day - phone calls, music player + scrobbling via data connection, some syncing.. and by the end of the day the battery is @ 90%
WTF#3: I pick up the phone next morning after 1.5 day of use and it shows 80% of battery left At this point i start thinking the battery meter is screwed up on me and it will just shut off while @ 70% or something... but that wasn't meant to be.. I seriously start trying to get it discharged - playing games + wifi + syncing + putting in a sim card + checking mail + browsing... and by the end of the day it's only @60%
WTF#3 So, again next morning i pick it up and it's @ 40% of battery. and I have no clue how the hell this happened. right now its approaching 3 full days (2 days, 18 hours) of heavy - moderate use and the battery still shows 40% left.
Any ideas how this could happen? I will try to reproduce it once it finally discharges by letting the battery die completely and charging it while it's turned off. Anyway... your thoughts?
i got similar usage when i wasnt connected to a network i.e. data and wifi was off. i got a full 3 and a half days with minimal usage, turning wifi on when i needed it. with wifi and data on at all times i get about a day and a half of usage.
Plz let us know the outcome
I'm also struggling with batt. life
Sometimes I have to use three batteries per day
(I have many spare batteries just in case I have heavy usage)
It would be great to have three days of battery life!

Not sure how you managed the couple days of battery life, but that 100% after 10+ hrs without using the phone is pretty doable. Once you remove the bloatware that is. I can consistently let the phone sit for 10-12hrs and it will at most lose 10% battery life.
If you use your SMARTphone as it was designed, there is no way to get that batt life. If you use it like an old dinosaur nokia(phone calls and texts only no data) then sure, that is possible.

Hi guys, just stopping by to update that since my original post I went through a couple of charge-discharge cycles, always getting 2-3 days of battery life, depending on my usage.
So, as you see, it's possible to get this kind of battery life if using the phone as smartphone cause well.. that's what's happening to mine
I will add the additional details I omitted in my original post:
------------------------------------------------------------------
1. set your default launcher to LauncherPro
2. follow the steps in the Battery Life Writeup thread if you haven't yet
3. turn off wifi and data unless you are using it
4. clear your battery stats using Calibrate Battery app
5. discharge your phone completely until it dies (if you have a wall charger)
6. charge it back up while turned off, turn it on once done.
7. force stop & clear data for the following services - (proceed at your own risk lol it didn't break my phone but it might break yours )
- Task Manager (freeze it)
- Bluetooth Share / Bluetooth Dun (if you don't use bluetooth)
- com.motorola.photowidget
- Email Engine (if you don't use email app)
- Home (if you use launcherpro)
- Motorola Services
- Social Messaging Service
- TTS Service (if you don't use tts)
- Voice commands (if you don't use voice commands)
Then, theoretically you should have the same battery life as I do.

LG Leon Battery Life

Hi everyone, I am new to this forum, having been made aware of it by a member of the Tom's Hardware forum.
I bought a T-Mobile LG Leon one month ago. For most of that time, I was getting 3-4 days of battery life with fairly light use, WIFI on, Bluetooth on some of the time. In the last few days the battery life has decreased significantly, so I decided to keep a log of the charge status. For this test, I turned off WIFI, Bluetooth, and Sync. Screen brightness is set to 48%, and screen timeout is 30 seconds. As you can see from the log below (sorry about the formatting, copied from an Excel spreadsheet), I am now getting just over a day's worth of battery life, with the phone being turned off overnight. During this test, I had no applications running. The only application that I recently downloaded from the Google Play store that I thought may be eating up the battery life is "Friend Locator", so I force stopped it for the duration of this test.

Please let me know if additional information is needed, or whether I posted this in the right place (I couldn't seem to determine how to post in a specific section). Since I am pretty new to this phone, is there an app or setting that will tell me what is using the battery?
Thank you in advance for any advice.
It seems that you need to clear the cache of the device.
Goto settings. Open storage and there clear the catch by clicking on it.
I am sure that this will help to restore not fulley but partial battery life.
And you may also try factory reseting the device.
That will help too.
The problem.can also be a system.update

OK, I did clear the cache, it contained about 73MB. At this point I do not want to do a factory restore, as I have downloaded and installed several apps which I will be using. Also, I turned off the "Location" service, having read on another thread here that Location can use a lot of battery power. It is on the charger now, I will monitor the battery status once 100% charged. Thank you for the response.
Ok then use es file explorer to make backup apk files of apps you downloaded from.play store and install the on any device when ever you want to.
Just for knowledge
