NEXUS i9023 battery max at 93?

Hi,
anyone has the same problem as mine?
my battery max at 93. fully charged it will still display 93.
when ur batt is charging, it will display charging. but when it's full it will display charged.
yeah. my charged will display 93%. LOL?

I thinks its normal for the nexus s that it doesnt max out at 100%.
Mine usually is fully "charged" when its at 96% Battery.

i can confirm this, mine stops usually at 98%

Mine varies between 94 and 99, but most of the time it stops at 95.

From what I've heard, it's performance thing. Full discharges reduce li-ion life span, and 100% charges might also, to a lesser degree.
D720 is the same.

Yup mine gets to 95 and is done, I don't realty mind that but what I do mind is battery life I want it to last longer right now I barely make it a work day and I have to charged on my way home I'm tuning some services cause I need them just like I do in my iPhone but the battery dies too fast sometimes hopefully us cause I have for like 3 days

Normally mine stops charging at 95% but I've gotten to 100%.
Here's how I did it:
1) Charge the phone until it stops charging
2) Turn off the phone and continue to charge until the battery meter stops blinking
3) Turn on phone and enable "stay awake" while charging
4) Run an app that drains the battery (I used Angry Birds) and leave it on, don't turn off the screen
5) After about an hour it reached 100%

ps. It may be bad for the battery to constantly charge to 100%.

This is a known case to some Samsung devices, unfortunately
Thus, actually i would advice people to actually use it as it is, and dont let it bother you. after all, nexus s still have some pretty good battery life in general.

94% then as soon as I un-plug it drops to 89% but still lasts a day.

What's good for battery life? I have this device for over a week and I feel like it doesn't last the long, how much does it last you guys?

Download from the market ''Battery Calibration''. I almost forgot, i think u need a rooted phone because it deletes the battery.bin file.

samsung actually added this feature into the batt to protect it from overheat.
I think its weird and un-necessary anyway
but cos I have this phone i just need to live with it until I buy some new toy

Mine's roof is @ 95% :/

I have max on 97%

Q: I unplugged my phone, and my battery dropped from 100% to 95% immediately, or it won't/takes along time to charge past 99%, what gives?
This is by design. Your phone will slow down and eventually stop pulling charge at or slightly greater than ~95% regardless of what your battery indicator says. This is to extend the overall life of the battery, as constant 100% to 0% charge/discharge cycles will cause it to fail prematurely. If you're interested in really pushing it to 100%, you can use a technique that is called "bump charging" and is better detailed here: http://bit.ly/f6xiZ0

[Q] tips on first charge anker 1900 battery

Hey all,
I just received my new Anker 1900mAh battery today and since there so much battery tips and tricks on the forums im confused about how to handle it when i put it in my phone for the first time.
Im a light user and on the stock battery with ARHD i sometimes get over 2 days on a full charged battery.
I just want that little bit extra that anker has to offer
My question is (since i see so much devided opinions) whats the best 1st charge time and what do i do to get the max out of my new battery ?
Do i need to reset battery stats in my phone before putting it in ?
Do i need to drain it first before giving it a full charge ?
How long do i need to charge it for the first (or first few times) ?
Do i need to drain the batt to 0% before recharging it ? or recharge it more often at eg 30%
Any imput on the subject is much appreciated.
Cheers in advance.
PS: ive added a pic of my stock battery usage, not to bad hey
I just want that little bit extra of the Anker and have a spare battery with me in case of emergency.

well there isnt much to it. what ive always done is just drain it till it turns off. then full charge overnight or ~8 hours. after that, you can charge it when it gets to around ~30%, letting it go lower wont do anything bad to it either. their supposed to prefer short frequent charges and to never let itself drain so low that its damaged. leaving it on the charger for long times will not damage it, their built to prevent overcharging. but battery stuff is very controversial. what i always do is drain until ~10% then charge it until its green for about half an hour. good luck. impressive battery results btw. im a moderate user and get ~2 days on anker, yours will probably last 2.5-3 days with that anker

Thanks for the answer m8.
I don't really do anything special to preserve battery, just have my brightness very low cuz the screen is the nr1 drainer and appart from that I turn WiFi and mobile internet on and off as I don't need them both at the same time.
Ill post back when i have the anker in use.
Cheers.

my method following partial guide in thread, but i couldn't locate it.
1. Charge till 0mAh displayed in currentWidget
2. reboot into recovery and wipe battery stat
3. boot into phone normally
4. Settings > Power > turn off fast-boot
5. let it drain till 0%
make sure you charge until 0mAh (or close to) in currentWidget, all the time
hope it helps =)

I got mine a few days ago and all I'm doing is following the instructions in the manual.
So after charging to 100% I let it drain to around 10% and then charge to 100% again.
Repeat another 4 times. I'm on the 3rd cycle.

Im on the 3rd cycle now as well, i just let my batt drain till 2-10% and full recharge.
Im getting between 2days-16hrs and almost 3 full days...
Lovin the Anker so far

Not to resurrect an old thread, but I just got this battery. It says on the battery not to use anything above 4.2v. I have 5v chargers. Am I going to destroy this battery by charging with more than the 4.2v in the warning?

Battery only charges to 96%

Exactly what the title says. The phone says it has charged completely but the battery is only at 96%. I'm currently draining the battery and I'm going to recharge it, but is this normal? I've had this phone for six months.

What rom are you on? Wipe your battery stats and cycle it a couple of times and eventually it'll hit 100 or 99 once you unplug

This happens to me as well. if you leave it long enough it will go to 100. it is a calibration error and will not actually hurt battery life, just how it is reported.

As Jce9182 asked, which rom are you running, and if you're not running any custom rom, are you at least rooted? The issue here sounds like it is most definitely a battery reporting error. This can be fixed by using an app from the market like Battery Calibration. You can also try the following with use of the market app for calibrating the battery. It's best to complete this procedure in the evening before going to bed, so you can leave it at 100% overnight and check in the morning if the issue has been resolved. The whole procedure along with recalibration might take up to 5-6 hours or more!
1. Take the case off your phone (if you're using one, as one of the latter steps involves taking the battery out from the phone while it's plugged in. Make sure your case won't stand in the way.)
2. Install Battery Calibration app from the market: Find it here!
3. Plug in your phone to charge while it's on, and wait until it gets to a 100% (or 96% as it appears in your situation)
4. When the charged, open the Battery Calibration app and look up what the charge is in mV while at fully charged. Write it down.
5. Discharge your phone completely until it shuts off. A good way of doing this quickly is by turning on WiFi, and a video player.
6. Without turning on the phone plug it into a wall charger and let it get to 100% (or 96% if this is all you will be able to see before finishing these steps)
7. When it's charged, without unplugging it from the wall charger, take off the battery cover, and take the battery out. Your phone will "reboot" and show a Missing Battery icon.
8. Without unplugging the phone from the wall charger or turning it on, put the battery back in and wait until the phone recognizes the battery.
9. Your battery should now be recognized by the phone, and showing a charge % significantly lower than 100%. Mine showed only 5%.
10. Let it sit there charging for 2-3 hours. My phone wouldn't charge past 10%, but yours might. The numbers don't matter much as the phone is definitely getting additional charge that could have been lost while flashing ROMs, etc.
11. After 2-3 hours, turn the phone on while holding the volume down button and get into CWM. Do not disconnect it from the charger still!
12. Wipe battery stats in CWM, reboot. Do not disconnect it from the charger still!
13. When the phone turns on, go into Battery Calibration app again and look up your MV numbers- if you were like me, they should be significantly higher than before. Do not disconnect it from the charger still!
14. Before going to sleep - Install Watchdog Task Manager from the market. Go into it's preferences, set CPU threshold to 20%, check "Include phone processes", check "Monitor phone processes", check "Display all phone processes", set system CPU threshhold to 20% as well. Do not disconnect it from the charger still!
15. Make sure your wifi and data connections are off. Now finally unplug the phone from the charger. Go to bed, let your phone sleep too.
16. Success! Next morning check where your battery % is at and if you followed the instructions correctly / got lucky like me, your battery life should be 90% or more. I went to bed with 98% and woke up to 94%. So, I consider this mission a success.
(Your general battery capacity should have increased, even if something still was draining the battery, you will be able to find the infringing process in WatchDog with the settings we've set up in step 14)
Hope this helps... :good:

Should i click "calibration" on battery calibration app?
And what is the MV number that you got after all?
Thanks

Click "calibrate" after the phone has been on the charger (wall, not USB to PC charge!) For several hours -preferrably after charging all night- and calibrate using the app in the morning.
The Mv I get at full charge is in the neighborhood of 4351-4353Mv or so:

Charging speed

To power up, you consume Red Bull. But your phone just needs its adaptive fast charger. Rate this thread to express how quickly the Huawei Nexus 6P can charge. A higher rating indicates that it charges extremely fast.

Charges about 2% per minute from 0-50%, then does about 1% every 2 minutes from 50-100%.

Fastest charging phone I've ever had.

59% to full charge in about an hour, not bad IMO

not making sense. total of 150min (2h30) for charging it?

I had a charge from 7% to 100% in hour and a half. (Having had the phone for a week, and this round had 50 and a half hours unplugged with around 5+ hours SOT, first day mostly LTE and commute to work, 2nd day home on wifi).

75 mins with his math. 25 mins to get to 50% then another 50 mins to get to 100%

I was wrong. but you're also wrong.
125min=2h05min
25min for the first 50% and 100min for the rest

I think the OP means 1% every minute from 50 to 100. No way in hell is the phone doing .5% a minute charging on the fast charger.

I've went from 0 to 100 in about 1hr 20 mins.....fastest charging I have ever experienced.

I've seen 2740mah on ampere while charging. It charges fast, haven't timed it.

Too bad it's only fast charging with the Original stock charger, I hope third party accessories will come out soon!

I actually have some concerns about fast charging and battery degradation. I'm not a battery expert but I have had a lot of Li-Ion IMR batteries for other electronic devices. I noticed that rapidly charging those batteries reduces battery life and charge capacity. Now I know the Nexus 6P has a Li-Poly or Li-Po battery and it has a sightly different composition than an IMR (Magnesium vs. Polymer) but does anyone know how Li-Po batteries handle repeated fast charging?

Charges faster than I expected... Even in my car.

What do you use in your car? I can't find a car charger from anywhere but China and it'll take a month to get here.

I was personally blown away at how fast it charges. I didn't time it but I was at 12%, plugged in, did some Web browsing and watched a bunch of you tube videos and I checked and I was at 68%. Call it a half hour 45 MINS. Crazy fast, makes me not miss my extended batteries bc I know if I'm low I just gotta plug in for an hour and I'll be 100% again

I'm using the same cig-lighter, double USB Plug I've had for a couple years... But I just found a cable on Amazon that fit and that's what I'm using..... Nothing fancy.
When I knew I'd eventually get a USB-C phone, I started stocking up on the cables...I'd pick up about one a month. I have about 5 or 6 now, so I'm good at home, on the road, at work, in the wife's car, and have a spare in my laptop bag and an extra one I haven't opened... Plus the stock Nexus 6P charger, so I'm good.

I am also amazed with how fast this phone charges. Fastest charging I have ever seen.
I am also amazed by how little it will consume over night when you forget to plug in. I forgot to plug it in when it was at 70% and when I woke up 8 hours later it was at 67%.

Anyone else notice it gets hot while fast charging??

Pretty amazing, as we all expected
40 minutes from 0 to 100%, nice charging animation with a counter, the device didn't get hotter than 35-celsius degrees (95-Fahrenheit).
This should be the standard for future devices, definitely for flagship devices.
Overall: 5/5 for charging. :good:

More battery life plz...
I must say its pretty fast.. but with all these dart and VOOC and QC 4.0 etc, its already enough.
The engineers should now focus on making battery life last longer, rather than just obsessing with the charging speed only...!!

6h00 = 5% (start charging)
6h05 = 30%
6h10 = 50%
6h15 = 65%
6h20 = 81%
6h25 = 92%
6h30 = 98%
6h33 = 100%

In 40-42 min my phone gets completely charged

good

7% to 59% in 15mins provided AOD is turned off

POWERED OFF:
35% to 80% in 15 min, total of 45%.
Remember, it'll start charging slower once it hits above 60% (or whatever that magic number is now).

Which can be toggled off if you so desire

Your phone will be 80% charged in a time of your morning bath

Charging speed is something I am getting addicted to.
I use a battery monitoring app called AccuBattery. It has a nice feature to sound audible alart when your device reaches a preset battery percentage while charging.
Idea is to keep using the battery between 20-80% charge to preserve charge cycles.
AccuBattery does a fantastic job with different battery stats. It doesn't have any features to save battery or provide long backs or such. But following this 20-80% charge cycle gave me great long term results with various devices.

Here is one screenshot from AccuBattery. OnePlus 8T with Charging Optimization feature of Oxygen OS turned on.
Although with reduced charging speed, 40-80% took just 15mins.
Very addictive & supper convenient
Update :
Even with slower charging option (optimised charging) turned on and with ambient temps are around 32-33c, phone does 20-80 in 20-25mins. That 20-25 mins charging gives me a good 20h+ usage !!
I am pretty ok with it..

takes more then an hour to charge 1% - 100%
