Battery - HTC Sensation

My phone will read 99% charged but my phones widget will read
100%.
Is there something that I need to do or is it just because of the custom Rom/

Hi after flashing every Rom charge to 100% then plugged in go to recovery wipe battery stats, unplug. This should help clear up the confusion. Possibly old stats are corrupting the percentage. I do this with EVERY Rom I flash! It really helps!
Best of luck hope I helped.

What above poster said or either way you can use battery calibration from the market there is a few apps out there but they all work good..

Hi,
Wiping battery stats is a MYTH
Sometimes getting to 100% just takes a while.
Be patient.
Let the battery charge fully + 15 minutes.
Do this for several cycles,and it will settle down.

Or just change Your Kernel

Battery drain when rebooting

So just yesterday I encountered this problem and i would be grateful if someone would be able to help me. When I reboot my sensation I end up with around 20% less juice. Any ideas? It doesn't happen all the time, just the first time after recharging. I'm running CM 7.1.

I'm not sure but it may be connected to the calibration process. Did you calibrate the battery?
Have the same.
Reboot it again and its back to normal.
I guess its a wrong callibration or a bad charge or something like that

I think I did. I used the Battery Calibration app.

Q: Battery gives wrong reading

I'm facing some battery problems at the moment. My battery drains extremely fast that it won't last past half a day. When I charge it it charges extremely fast from 0-50%, then slows down. When I restart the phone at around 60% when charging, the phone becomes fully charged.. anyway to solve this issue ?

Don't worry, incorrect battery information is common after flashing a new ROM.
What you need to do is download a Battery Calibration app from the Play Store.
I recommend this one. Charge your phone to 100% and calibrate.
It can also be the first signs of your battery beginning to die.

Hey thanks.. but ummm that fix is for the random shutdowns?
My problem now is wrong reading of the battery, i don't experience any random shutdowns at all..
So is this also relevant?

Random shut downs often occur due to over heating of the battery.
I guess if you aren't experiencing any of that, you don't have any problems with battery temperature.
How old is the battery? And how suddenly has the problem come up?
I run into this problem many times.
But very simple solution if there's nothing wrong with battery or phone.
1.reboot into recovery.
2. Wipe battery stats under advanced.
3. Let your phone completely die on battery. Turn it back on couple of time and let it die.
4. Charge your phone to 100% + 10-15 extra mins.
5. Reboot into recovery and clear battery stats again.

I do something like this, but without all the extra hassle. There is an app called Battery Calibration, it shows you a read of your batteries mV and it does the same thing as the above, wipes battery stats.
I use it to check my mV, which with an anker 1900 the max mV is 4203. I keep my phone on charge once it hits 100%, then allow it to drop down to 99%, unplug it and plug it back in, it takes several times doing this, but once my battery % being 100 and my max mV (4200), match, I wipe my battery stats (Hit battery calibration.)
One thing I have noticed with ALL ICS ROMs is the incorrect battery reading after rebooting. You'll have say 56%, once you reboot it will jump 15-30% and show, say 79%. Then it drops quickly down what it was prior to the reboot.
Doing a battery calibration in no way helps extend battery life, for me it just does the same thing that will happen after several cycles anyhow, it just saves you time from having to run multiple cycles to get your device and battery to sync up.
This is just what I personally do, I know people are going to post saying that doing a battery calibration is pointless, and probably point you to where google even said it, etc, etc. As far as the calibration doing anything special, it doesn't. I simply do this to get my device (When at 100%) to see my battery at 100% (4200mV). It works for me.

Battery is 3 months old.. use it rarely as it is my spare battery.. Does making it a spare battery affects it?

Yes! Once you start using a spare battery, you should ALWAYS alternate between the two batteries. Otherwise, it will affect the life of the battery.
Use One, Drain it, Use the other, Drain it, and repeat the cycle. Always charge your battery through your phone and not through a battery charger as this will charge the battery in highly optimum conditions and the phone will keep a track of the battery status.

Battery problem

If I reboot my phone the battery percent will jump around from like 40% to 80% or one time time it went from 91% to 32% any idea why this happens?

maybe your battery is dead or u must full charge your battery and wipe battery statistics from recovery
Your rom maybe starting very fast where incorrect battery readings may occur or you need to calibrate you battery. Not to mention wiping the battery stats.
After every new ROM I flash I make sure to charge to 100% then while plugged in to charger I go to recovery and wipe battery stats, then unplug. This helps a lot and should stop your swings of battery stats. You should do this with
Every Rom you flash. Hope this helps.

Have you tried the battery calibration from the market? I charge to 100and Press calibrate and if that doesn't work try emptying your battery and charge back to 100 if that doesn't help it might be your battery dying

Should I say BYE to this battery?

Hi, its been a year since I am in this rooting process and changing Roms and kernels but for few days i'm noticing an issue not only on VIPER 1.60 (currently using it) but also on others. My phone takes long time to charge and the battery bar is all messed up. Shows different readings before and after restart and all the battery just drains with speed of light? Need advice, thanks
Sent from my HTC Sensation Z710e using xda premium
As a last step before getting a new battery, probably you could try placing a paper card or credit card between the battery and the back cover to see if there is an issue with battery positioning. I resolved similar issue with my phone this way.
If your battery is draining that fast, yes I would definitely look into buying another. My stock battery was awful, finally I broke down and got another, I'm very glad I did! It makes a big difference to have a good extended life battery! If I we're you, yes I would by another battery. Hope this is helpful. Best wishes.

Sometimes the problm is with the machine inside the phone. If that machine is malfunctioning then it will also make your new battry dead.
So confirm it first.

I had a similar issue, my battery wouldn't charge past 80%. I tried wiping my battery stats and everything, try the battery in a different phone if you can. I bought the 1900 MHA Anker on amazon. I get 6-12 hours more out of this battery than I did with my stock because it was so beat. Good Luck

[Q] battery for htc inspire 4g

wierd situation i am in. my battery charges to 100 %....i tinker with it and little by little my battery drains to about 90%...heres the thing though....i reboot the inspire and the battery says its up to 97 again. after some usage, it will get to 56 %....i tinker some more, then reboot it. then it is back to 78 %. i have done the battery calibration, manually wiping battery stats through recovery. why is my inspire giving me false battery stats. even when im at 10 %, my cell stays on forever. its like the device is not recognizing its true charge. anybody have any ideas on why this is doing that? any feedback would be appreciated. oh, btw, this phone has done this even when i was pure stock before root. i tried installing a new battery, but that does the same thing.

What ROM?
Have you let the battery discharge fully after calibrating?
