So I've got a rooted HTC Sensation 4G on Cyanogenmod 9 and I've been experiencing an issues that's really getting on my nerves. I bought a new Anker battery as the stock one sucks, for awhile I've had no issues until recently. If I turn the phone off and try and charge it with the Anker battery, the LED flashes orange indicating it won't charge. But yet when the phone is on, it charges no problem. Is there any possible fix for this or am I stuck having to keep the phone on at all times?
I've also tried different ROM's and whipped the battery stats to no avail.
I should also add, I've attempted to use multiple chargers.

I bought 2 x aftermarket 1600mah batteries from eBay with a charger to charge them directly.
I don't have high hopes but I figured for £10 I couldn't really go wrong.
So I charged one of the new batteries in the supplied charger overnight and tried it out this morning. At first boot, my Desire HD said the battery was empty and to connect the charger. If I leave it the phone shuts down after 20 seconds. I did connect the charger and and then instantly the phone said the battery was 99% full. After I disconnected the charger the phone has run all day on one of these ebay batteries, with life being comparable to the stock battery.
My question is, is this some kind of software glitch? Or a problem with the charger pergaps? I am using Cyanogenmod 7 (Gingerbread). Anyone else seen this issue?
I'd like the phone to report the correct power level when I swap the battery, so that it doesn't shut down automatically, and can be used when Im away from a charger.
where can i find a 1600mAH official battery??

I have the same issue with what sounds like the same batteries and charger running cm6. The problem isn't there when I use the stock rom. Think it's a cm issue. I don't know of a fix except that sometimes wiping battery stats before booting sorts it out. Good luck and if you find a fix, please post.

Not a fix, just my workaround:
I charge the phone with the unofficial 1600mah battery overnight, and run it all day until it runs out. Then I switch to the official HTC battery, which lasts me all evening.
For example I went to a wedding Saturday, and taking pictures/playing Angry Birds during the boring bits, the two batteries easily lasted the whole day. I don't think the 1600mah battery is any better than stock though. Wouldn't say it's worse mind.
I think the CM7 builds have issues around battery life with WIFI/Bluetooth and Cell standby. From what i can see.
I'll let you know if I find a fix though!
I have a HTC Sensation rooted and running on the VIPER rom 1.0.1 i've had that ROM for a month without any problems until this week I charge my phone using the charger i got with the phone and it take a very long time for the battery charge. i can leave the phone in the charger overnight but it would not get fully charged. On some occasions even with the phone charging the battery level falls.
I was like totally lost. I had that charger for almost half a year and it worked perfectly on my device without any problems.
ive bought a new battery off ebay and the problem still persists
ive also tried charging with my usb port on my pc and nothing has changed.
Now the problem that I'm experiencing is that my phone discharges faster than it charges. and that totally sucks. I need some advice,

check which app is consuming most battery and turn off auto sync, bluetooth, wifi, nfc
use better battery stats to know exactly what is consuming most battery

Hey everyone, On my rogers optimus 3d I've installed a couple of weeks ago korean ICS to my phone with TWRP no problem except some stability and things like this.
I then recently received 2 backup batteries to get the phone past a day without charging it and everything is working fine.
My problem is that now the phone seems to think every of my 3 batteries (even the original one) can't get past 1% of charge even after a full night of charge.
I've tried also on my external charger that came with the batteries, they get a red light saying it's charging for about a couple of minutes then turns blue to say it's fully charged (a perfectly normal behaviour for these charger on a healty battery that's almost fully charged). Even after the external charger saying the battery is full, phone keeps recognising it as a 1% battery.
I've tried the app called Battery Calibration Free and it did pretty much nothing to help.
Also tought about wiping battery stats, but this option seems to be absent from TWRP.
I also did my homeworks and found this post : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1511039&page=4 with ppl getting almost the same problem as I did but on gingerbread
Anyone any idea because i'm starting to get mad because the phone can't even handle 10minutes with it's 3 batteries...
I am having trouble with my galaxy s 4g. Recently my battery started acting up ( randomly restarting, not holding charge, etc) and I noticed a bump on the battery so I decided to purchase a new one. I did that, and made sure it was the same type of battery yet it will not work. The original charge it came with worked on my phone, but the problem came when I had to charge it. The new battery wont charge and the phone keeps restarting, or just stays off. I was using a custom rom and kernel, so I reverted back to stock and it still will not charge.
tldr Got a new battery, it won't charge the phone keeps restarting, or will stay off. I have reverted back to stock with no luck.
I just bought an 1800 mah battery and it died within a week. Although not charging could be due to a bad USB connector
If your original battery will still charge correctly (even though it's old, just try to charge it) then I'd say it's a battery issue. Getting batteries from third parties is always iffy.

Hello all,
Ive changed the battery in phones labratory.
The new battery is original lg oem anf seemed
Perfectly fine.
Since I changed it,
The battery precentage is stuck on 17℅
I see the lighning bolt as if though its charging
But the battery precentage doesent change.
When I enter the battery it says not charging.
Do I need to calibrate or the battery is bad?
Please advise.
Thanks
Does the same thing happen when you put back your old battery? If it does, it could be a motherboard connection problem.
I've changed the battery in a few Nexus 5 phones using 3rd party batteries from Aliexpress and I never experienced a situation similar to yours. When I replaced the battery, I put the phone on a wired charger while powered off. I waited until the battery was fully charged booted the phone, and everything seemed fine. It's better months since I changed these batteries and they all seem to be working with a wired and wireless charger.
