Thunderbolt not displaying battery

Hey guys I'm on the newest version of virus rom and my battery will just stay at,say,89% unless a reboot is performed. Any way to fix this?

I had that problem with the standard debloat Rom. New rom seems to update all the time.

I really believe the battery display is an os issue. That's why I'm waiting to root.

same problem as it only happens when i use the extended battery. i am trying out battery left widget no clue if it will help or calculate a good reading for me but its calibrating as i just tried it out today.
all the battery wipes in the world will not reset it and help

I get inaccurate info. Seems when i reboot my phone i loose 10-15% charge and it happens all the time. - Extended battery

I was having the same issue with my battery meter sticking. The same time this happens, my Setcpu app also was sticking and would full throttle the cpu. Im running the VirusRom right now, but have experienced this problem on a few of the other Roms also. My usual fix was just wipe everything and go with new install. It started happening again last night and I followed some posters advice to let the battery totally drain and then shutoff. I then recharged to full and everything seems to be fine again.
The first time it ever started happening was right after I had wiped the battery cache and rebooted. Ive stopped doing that now, but it still happens. I notice now that I usuallly experience this after a series of reboots. Not sure whats up, but draining the battery to zero helped out last night. We'll see in a day or two if it starts happening again.

Im actually done with ROMs until CM7 is ready. Im just going with a base rooted system and Ill use a custom kernel. Kernel is 99% of the improvement anyway.

Draining works for a day or so, then it does the same thing. I'm stock and it does it. It also does it with the stock battery. Hope they get it fixed with an update.

Mine actually just stopped working... was working for a week or so and today its just stuck on the same number until i reboot. Pretty annoying.

Bump - anyone find a solution to this? I tried running my extended battery to 0% last night and fully charging it... guess ill see if its fixed today. Pulling it off the charger, it already dropped to 95% lol...

That's because of how it charges not foot into details but that will always happen up to a 10% drop.

Right but my problem was/is the meter never changing. I think I fixed it by completely draining the battery and charging to full. Maybe the phone didnt know how much juice it had because of the different size battery.

yeah i changed to the stock battery last night and it would read fine but i really need this extended

How new is the phone? Stock or custom? Have you tried a factory reset since you got the phone?
When I first got my HOX I was experiencing the same issue, it would happen ever so often. I did a factory reset and that seemed to fix the problem. I also installed CleanRom and I saw an improvement in my battery life as well. I know some people are experinceing heating issues that causes the batt to tank like that. Download GSM battery to see if an app is running in the background causing it to over heat. Also if you have your phone rooted you can DL SetCPU and set up a profile to underclock it when it get's too hot.

It's happened to many people before.
Nobody knows why it happens, but people say restarting it helps sometimes

Maybe this? http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1777226

Were you using Chrome with tilt scrolling enabled? (It's enabled as default) That can eat your battery in a few minutes. Or maps?
My only guess because the significant drain happened when screen was awake and phone on.
I don't think it's the signal bug... It shows your signal as straight green, so it's consistent.

Did anyone else think this would be a sense pun?

Nope. First time anything like this has ever happened. No idea what the hell caused it.

I was having issues like this too. He's running Xi40. I had that problem with that ROM too. Went to bed with it fully charged, woke up with it at 47%. Huge down spikes in the middle of the night for no apparent reason.
Flashed CleanROM 4.5 RC1 and the difference is amazing. Went out for over 10 hours yesterday and used it moderately and only consumed 34%. Something is up with that ROM. I have CleanROM setup and all the same apps installed as I did with Xi40 but the battery lasts much longer.

htc seem to have issues writing battery drivers.
the sensation and evo 3d battery drivers were completely ****ed up and htc managed to only fix the evo 3d but not the sensation

The network signal in the pic is fully green, no signal drops. Signal drops show as red. Also, from what I've seen, the dropped data signal issue results in a really steep line, but not a dead vertical one. This looks more like the incorrect voltage being read, and the volt meter correcting itself.

Or, since the phone was awake and the screen was on, it was heavily loaded (process stuck at 99% cpu, benchmarking, etc.). Either way, nothing to see here, move along.

I don't think you will see a vertical drop, no matter how heavily you load the CPU. A steep line, yes. But the vertical line indicates an instantaneous (or near instantaneous) drop in voltage. My guess is still that on an incorrect voltage reading, and the voltmeter suddenly adjusting for the error. As others have mentioned a factory reset resolves the issue, its possible some residual battery meter data is left over from a previous ROM.

[Q] Random Reboots

I've been dealing with random reboots now for a long time. With all this "stable" talk for JB roms I'm starting to wonder if it is just my phone.
I have ran many roms:
Slim Bean
All paranoid aspects of JB
CM10
sky JB
brickbeatz
Every single one the same. Multiple reboots or SOD's everyday at least 2 or 3. And if I'm using the phone extensively this amount could double maybe even triple. Is this normal? Is this something that other people are experiencing?
I have followed all install instructions including changing recoveries if requested by the install (big fan of TWRP but a lot of roms swear by sk8t's CWM)
I have odin'd back to uclf6 took the ota - formatted internal and external SD and is still happening no matter what rom I use.
When I was on ICS for a little I dig get a notification from time to time saying something to the extent of "battery disconnected" or "battery temp too high" and this is what made me start thinking that maybe this is a phone issue.
Has anyone else experienced anything like this? This is my second Skyrocket. First was replaced by warranty because it started just rebooting consistently (may have been a stuck button, but I didn't worry about it).
Any help you guys can give would be greatly appreciated. I do search, and I have tried pretty much everything I have found. Now I'm just frustrated looking for help.

Reboots are not normal with any of the roms you've tried. I've tried a number of roms and haven't experienced any reboots. Sounds like a hardware issue, but others may have different advice.
Sent from my SGH-I727 using xda app-developers app

I've had 2 soft reboots since reinstalling Slim 3.1 (from stock ICS), but that's it. Some ROMs I've tried in the past seemed to have them more often than others, but I haven't been able to nail down exactly why that happens.
Most of them these days are fairly solid and shouldn't be rebooting, especially not as often as you are experiencing. Have you installed a custom kernel? Are you OC/UV? Do you have BBS installed to see if something is preventing deep sleep?

Two soft reboots are not bad, but the amount that I have had is way moer than that. I know that some roms are going to be different than others thats why I tried multiple to see.
I don't have better battery stats installed because battery loss isn't really my issue. I have decent battery life (other than the fact that the SOD's and reboots seem to kill 7-10 percent every time they happen. I also never oc/uv always leave stock..
Would BBS tell me what is causing the reboots?
Thanks for both of your inputs.

You had some high battery temp issues. Is your device still running hot? That would cause a reboot. Liquidzoo, you had hot battery issue, could this be similar to what you where experiencing?

The high battery temp issues came about right after I odin'd, but that was telling me these things in which I'm not sure that CM10 has a pop up for notification on these things.

It doesn't but how does the device feel? Does it feel hot. If it gets too hot the phone will shut itself down and reboot

Yes the device feels abnormally hot all the time

That's most likely why it's rebooting. Now all we have to do is figure out why it's hot. Liquid zoo had similar issues and I think he brought it all the way back to stock to remove some wake locks.
Liquidzoo , any thoughts?

My guess is the temperature is causing the reboots.
Install Better Battery Stats and look at the CPU States. It could very well be that something is preventing deep sleep, which in turn would cause heat and heat would cause shutdown.

I experienced the same thing with my SR. I called up AT&T customer care and told them that this was unacceptable. After a while they sent me a new SGS III. It is most commonly a HW issue, which is what I was experiencing. I explained that to them, and that is what lead them to send me the GS III

The problem is I work in the call center atmosphere and I just can't bring myself to call in and be an asshole. It is unacceptable and I definitely should call them to talk to them about it, but I doubt I will get as far as you. I will also post some BBS dump after it has time to gather some information.

[Q] Does your O3D lose time when you pull out the battery?

Simple question, guys. Does your O3D lose time and date when you pull out the battery? Of course, when Automatic time update is unchecked.
Mine does loose the time and I don't know if it should do that.
Stock ROM 21E

Mine does that too. But I am pretty sure it did not do this from the beginning. But for now I only experienced this, when the battery was out for more than one hour.

I'm pretty sure it wasn't like that. Now it looses as soon as I pull out the battery. Maybe it's because of the bootloader?

Mine does that every time i switch the battery.It's very annoying.It's like that since gingerbread.

I think its normal, because, how can the clock goes on if there isnt a battery for it? Its like a normal clock. For example in comouters is a little battery for this, when the computer shut down the clock goes on.

I didn't open my Optimus and I couldn't find a picture of the main board. So I don't know if there's a battery for time and date.

I heard elsewhere that O3D doesn't have the capacitor(?) to provide electricity to store date&time because of environmental protection issues... Can anyone confirm that?
Oh and mine is still on froyo and it also doesn't store time&date...

I think mine lose it too, but only since CM10

Yes mine does that but only if I leave the battery out for about an hour.
It could be that one of the capacitors aren't working properly, since it looses time instantly.

Two hour battery life please help

I'm ruining stock ICS 4.0.4. Noticed yesterday my phone was really sluggish and battery life would go from%100 to dead in about two hours. I went into settings then apps and looked at my running apps and my phone was scrolling through all of my apps. I don't think that's normal. My widgets are slow to activate and my phone is slow to respond. Any help would be appreciated. Does this sound like a virus or a simple fix?

That's not going to tell you if its a virus noob. It could be any number of things causing the slowdown. What are your friends credentials because if its not a background in networking security he's got nothing but here say. Unfortunately for you I am a security professional. The likelihood of a virus is slim to none. Its more likely memory issues some apps probably consuming more than its share.

Bad info and fear are not good input either. The reset would probably help but not because of a virus but freeing up tons of previously used space.

You may have a app wakelocking keeping your CPU running and not deep sleeping like stated above there is like a .01 percent chance its a virus.
Wipe every thing reflash ROM of choice let settle then install your apps one a time waiting a few minutes between them so u can see witch one dose it.

Read up on the wake lock thread and see what betterbatterystats tells you. Or you could just flash a new rom

Hey thanx to all who responded. I ended up backing up my phone and doing a reset. Lost all my sips but that's no biggie. Went back with sock ICS and all seems to be fine. Once again thanx for helping out a somewhat noob!

So just to see if I understood :
You are using stock but rooted (?)
And your battery last only two hours.
I had the same issue with a ROM. First you have to shut off al your radios, data, gps, wifi, bt... Just to be aware if none of these things that are draining your battery life.
Then you should try to verify your battery charger. There's an sticky here in the forum. And lastly you have to check wakelocks... There's a good discussion about that here also.
I know it's kind of disappointing at the beginning, but when you finally understand all the symptoms of your phone you will solve all the troubles really quick... It's like having a newborn baby, at the beginning you don't know why they cry but when you learn about them you can identify every "kind of cry".
Best regards.
