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

Battery meter sticks, really bad

My battery meter almost never goes down... started doing this after flashing BAMF remix, then i reflashed..no dice. Sometimes ill see it drop by 2-3 percent at a time.. sometimes 1%, after like 30 minutes or so, but with constant usage and 4G on this shouldn't be possible.. Could my voltages actually be getting me better battery?
Here is all I use, running Bamf CF 2.0 kernel (ignore my signature)
368 750
768 875
1024 1000
Also rebooting drains about 3-12% of battery at time... give or take.

The same thing is happening to some people, including me, in this thread:
losing about 5-10% battery on reboot
Someone suggested bump charging and wiping battery stats, but that hasn't fixed the problem for me.

i've had similar problems with mine and my reboots usually drop me 5-10%,, which is rediculous!

I refuse to bump charge, and I have calibrated twice in the past two days

Why would you refuse to bump charge?

Yea I heard bump charging can hurt your battery if you do it to much or more than once and every time you flash a new rom and kernel battery stats get thrown off anyways for a couple of charges

Like Carycookie said, if you do it alot it will permanently shorten your battery life.

Heres what I do and it doesnt seem to drop percentage after reboot like that and read wierd or hang but when I flash a rom or kernel in CWR I clear battery stats like 3 times then charge phone completely with it off
I use imoseyens lean kernel and been very happy with battery performance and it reading right

I don't think the kernel would cause it to read wrong..and I thought you were supposed to charge the phone fully before wiping it?

When I reboot and lose 10% or so it seems to catch back up. If I look at the graph there will be a big drop from the reboot then it will seemingly use no power for the for a long time then continue to decrease at at normal rate.

Problems with the battery

Hello all,
I have been having a situation with my phone where while I am using the phone and the battery reaches about 80 - 75% the phone just dies without even shutting down, and when I turn it back on the battery is at something like 1%. Even more strangely, if I turn it off and wait for like an hour then reboot, it is back at 80%. I have calibrated the battery, so I am sure it is not a calibration issue. Also, this has been happening on every rom that I use. I had a Vibrant but traded with my father but I have the battery from the Vibrant even though they are the same.
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: I have discovered this is due to the battery itself and not a calibration error. I am using a new one now with no problems. Thank you very much for the suggestions though.

Gingerbread or Froyo?

I am using gingerbread 2.3.5
It is newest valhala with a voodoo kI3 kernel.

Go to recovery and go to advanced/wipe battery stats and fix permissions

You need to calibrate your battery. download the battery calibration app by nema from the market. Charge your phone to as close to 4200mv as you can. Calibrate in the app. unplug phone immediately. Let it die completely. Charge it back up with no break

Thanks but I have tried this before posting. I did not let it run empty though, so I will try that.

The whole point is to let it run empty after clearing the stats when the phone is full...

[Q] Need full battery before flashing?

Hey all. Thanks in advance. I have searched.
On my old moment, everyone was absolutely firm that you needed to charge your battery to 100% before flashing a new ROM. If you did not, the battery would lose performance as the ROM would assign 76% (or whatever your battery was at) as the new 100%.
In any case, just wondering if the S3 is the same thing. I would love to flash the new synergy, but I am at 54%... :crying: Some of the posts I have read suggest that I do not have to be at 100% just to have ample charge to make it though the flashing process...
So should I wait until 100%?

Is that the same as resetting your battery stats? If yes, it's been debunked. Flash away.

No, I've flashed at like 10% and everything has ran fine, the only problem I would imagine happening is if the battery runs out while flashing.
Sent from my SCH-I535 using xda app-developers app

Thanks to both! I have flashed away!

Hah! I flashed the other day at 3% and didn't catch it till it was already rebooting. Luckily I know that when I flash, which is just just about every day, that it only takes about 1 minute anyways!

On the droid x, there's no way to boot into recovery from a powered off state. If you flashed a rom and it didn't work (which happened a lot) and had a low battery, you would either have to charge externally or use a different battery. People would freak when it happened for the first time.

(Q) Battery Indicator

My phone's battery indicator always remain at 100% regardless of rom. I flashed rooted stock froyo, gingerbread, cm7, cm10.1, weapong2x, mokeos, unrooted stock, literarily everything yet the battery stays at 100%. I tried wiping battery stats in cwm, using battery calibration app, everything! Please help! :banghead:

No one at all?

Might be a dying battery. Is it stock or aftermarket? And have you tried running it down until it's completely dead?

Stock battery that came with the phone when I got it last year and yep, I tried playing games with it until the phone died. Left the phone charging for about a day, unplug, turn on and it stays at 100% still

Try to reset the battery by doing at least three discharge cycles. Also never run the battery dry.

What do you need help with? I solved this by reflashing but also by flashing other roms and tried which worked. Only temasek's rom and cm7 worked for me
