[Q] battery issue. geting wrong values - HTC Sensation

both my sensation xe have the same problem.
I'm geting wrong battery levels and its driving me mad. tried six difrent batterys two original and fore anker. same problem on them all so ota not the batterys. tryed several chargers and difrent roms same problem on them all.
I can charge the phone over night and it displays a random value. if I reboot I get the right one. somtimes it show 100% when its more like 10%
its mostly anoying when the phone suddenly shuts down cuz it thinks its out of power.
sometimes it drops to 0% then 2seconds later it display 100%
anyone got any idea on a fix?
charging the phone never increase the value displayed . it seems to work if I charge the phone while switched off. this is alsow a disaster for my batterys health cuz the keap geting over charged

I would suggest to use battery calibration tool. For kind of problem you are referring to, it seems more like ROM or worn out battery.
Leave a phone to charge and read it's battery charge rather than value. It's usually around 4196. When you see this value, just calibrate it using calibration tool from google play. Do not charge the phone again until it's dead. Charge your phone again till 4196mV and hopefully the battery will show stable value.
Bad and worn out batteries will usually show random displays

It seems to me that either your phone is consuming a lot of battery or you have some problem with your charging IC. You should get it checked. Also, how about trying a different ROM. Does that help. Why not try CM9.1 or latest version of CM. I am using CM9 and it is very stable and fast.
I hope that also helps with your problem.

Seems like a serious problem to me on your hardware part really. If it supposed died that quickly which I am assuming, you will need to get your phone checked from a care centre. There must be some volts FLYING all over your motherboard.
I would suggest you buy a new phone and sell it off to a mechanic. (Better will be to ask how much to repair, sell it off ebay etc and then buy a new phone )

[Q] One X's horrible charging??

Has anyone experienced problems with the way their One X charges? Mine charges blazing fast and well all the way from 1 to 90 in about an hour and sometimes an hour and half, but then from 91 to 100 it takes easily another hour... and not just that, if i use the phone to talk or play a game while its charging from 91 to 100, sometimes it'll stop charging or even discharge!! i always keep it cool cause i know overheating causes it to stop charging for a while and I always make sure the charger is connected correctly both to the outlet and to the phone, cause if its a little loose on the outlet it also causes it to charge slowly i know all of that... literally I check everything and its all fine... soo just me?? or known from then HOX?? ive calibrated lots of times and it happens with all roms even stock ones....
EDIT: added a screenshot so u see wt i mean, and yes i did unplug it twice but that has nothing to do with the problem, it has happened letting it charge straight from 1-100 too
ive never seen this problem, it could be the rom/kernel too

It's actually how all Li-Po/Li-Ion batteries charge. Some manufacturers (cough Apple) show the phone/tablet battery at 100% when it is actually only at 90%. It's part of the reason when you do a full cycle of a phone battery you should leave it plugged in for at least one hour after you hit "100%"

HTC probably is displaying the actual battery percentage. (So it is at 90%). You could test it if you wanted by seeing how much current the phone is pulling when it hits 100%.
For example, I own a new iPad (yeah boo hiss). It will show 100% on the display, but the charger will still be pulling full charging current for 90 minutes or so. Apple displays 100% when the iPad is anywhere above 90% or so. It's the same reason why some phones will seem to take forever to go from 100% to 99% after they are fully charged.

aah well if thats the case then i think its charging accurately, cause when i unplug it exactly as it hits 100% it takes a while till it drops to 99%.. like i said battery life is good its just that last 10% taking so long to charge that bothers me.. also if i unplug it when its anywhere lower than 90% it drains pretty quickly even without using it much.. like if it lasts 12-16 hours unplugging at 100%, itll last about 6-8 hours unplugging before it finishes charging

[Q] hi i have this very odd battery problem

i have a htc sensation xe with beats audio
phone is rooted and flashed with OrDroid 4.0 Ics 4.0 Sense... before i also tried ARHD... bricked kernel...
Stock battery
i have this very weird problem..
my phone has inaccurate reading of the battery..
here are the issues:
1. the phone drains the battery by 2% each interval instead of 1%.. I mean its like, 100%,98%,96%,95%,94%,92%,90%
2. the phone lasts longer on the terminal part of the battery.. its like its the longest 3% of the phone's battery life!
3. whenever the phone is drained, and if i insert a charger, it will have inaccurate battery level reading.. here is an example:
my phone is at 9% of its battery life... i plug the charger to the phone.. it will charge.. after charging for around 2 hours it will show that the battery is at 57%... i plug the charger out.. restart the phone and bam! the battery will be at 100% or 99%.. i mean, its annoying.. i have to restart the phone everyday so that i can get an accurate reading of the phone's battery..
anyway...
i am done recalibrating the phone.. ive done this 3 times now...
and i also did every method for recalibrating the phone..
ive also done this one: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1558140&page=5
the smali editting thingy..
and ive also done placing a small business card on the battery to push the battery closer to the pins..
the only one i havent tried is to buy a new battery which is expensive! i dont believe the problem is in the battery though.. i think its in the firmware or something... i dont know.. anyway.. can anyone help me on this one??

From what I can understand you don't have any problem at all. The same think happens to me. Whenever I reboot the phone it will show at first more charge than it has, but after a few minutes it will go to where it was. Don't worry about percentage drops or increments, if your battery lasts as it should. I myself thought that battery calibration way essential after flashing, etc, etc. But now I am convinces that it has nothing to do with battery life.
Just IGNORE the percentage and enjoy your phone

hey can u update me if replacing the phone's battery solved the issue?? if it solved it then i guess i'd buy mine a new one too..
Hi there, as above poster said I'm not sure this is really a problem. Mine also does this say I'm on 95% then when I reboot it will say 100% for a bit then go back to 95% the true percentage. So what I'm saying is sometimes after reboot an inaccurate percentage will show for a time then it will catch up and show the correct percentage. It will happen with a new battery as well this is just how our device works. I recently purchased a new mugen 3500mah battery and after reboot I still get the same issue. It's not really a problem it's just the device catching up with the accurate battery percentage. As for the two percent increments, my device does not do that.. not sure why it's draining at 2% increments unless this is just how much your device drains for a specific amount of time. Perhaps your battery is draining At 2% increments because this is your consumption.? I really wouldn't worry too much unless it's jumping increments without being rebooted, like going from 73% to 60% to 50% all in a matter of five minutes. If that's the case then I would become concerned and likely think it's time to purchase a new battery. But you are only draining at 2% increments and I really don't think it's cause for alarm. Do watch it closely and if the percentages start to jump and drain at bigger increments, then perhaps invest in a new battery. But for now I agree with above poster and really wouldn't be too concerned. As I said just keep an eye on it and if it gets worse as the example I said, then get yourself a new battery. Until then I think your ok for now. I hope this helps. I wish you the best!

Have ever tried letting your battery drain 100%. until the device shut's down. and then take the battery out for oh let's say 5 second's. And then put the battery back in hit the power button . If it powers on your battery isn't fully discharged .and if it is plug it in and let it charge to 100% just my two cent's but worth a try

Hey realsis, read the link in my first post. ... I thought clearing battery stats will solve the problem related to battery troubles till I read that.
Sent from my HTC Sensation XE with Beats Audio using xda app-developers app
So i got the anker a few hours ago and the bug presists. i made full charge and calibrated the battery. it is still mostly discharging 2 % at a time and the phone stay a very long time on 100%.

[Q] Restarting the phone gives MORE Battery?!

Yes, this is exactly what I get lots of time. Today, I had been charging my phone for around 3 hours starting from 14% battery. Till now it had reached around 55 % when I had to remove the charger and I put my phone somewhere. Then after some minutes I connected my phone to the PC to charge via PC now, as the charger was unavailable to me for the moment. I found that the phone had been turned off automatically. OK, so I turned it on but I saw that the battery is 100% !!
Similar thing happened yesterday when I was charging phone and decided to restart mobile thinking of getting more RAM, for it had not been restarted since a while. I restarted at 20% battery and turned it on to find that it was above 50% !
Why is it happening? Does my battery get charged quickly but phone does not tell me or is my battery behaving funny? (actually, not funny at all)
My brother's HTC Amaze charges from zero to 100% in around 2.5 hrs and other brother's Xperia Arc also charges from zero to 100% in around 2 hrs.
But my Sensation normally takes 5-6 hours.
This is a known "issue" and is due to (closed source) htc drivers. Those jumps are rather large though, could also be due to bad battery calibration; something to be expected just after flashing a rom.

I have never flashed or rooted.. didn't they give a solution?
Actually it happens even if you're completely stock. It's a known issue in everyone sensation, i think. I also think It won't give you more juice as percentage will reduce faster to where it should be.

That's what I experienced yesterday.. it dropped down real fast.
As mentioned above, it may also be a calibration issue. I am saying this because I sometimes charge with charger and sometimes with PC (USB charging Mode), and even sometimes switch between these while going from 0-100%.
I think it doesn't matter how you charge or deal with your phone. I don't think that battery calibration will solve it. If you reboot it'll increase your battery percentage, even if you don't use a charger.
it is a common htc issue with battery percentage
it happens with my device too
while charging if i do a reboot it jumps to a higher percentage

[Q] Long battery charging. 6-10hours

hi.
my sensation takes 6-12 hours to charge completely..
I tried a different charger(pantech\ nokia\ motorola) and another battery.
Tried charging on original ROM, made wipe battery status in recovery
but nothing has changed
who knows more possible actions?
Get a new battery. This one you have is probably just worn out. Long charging is a common symptom of a dying battery.

does it take as long on the official HTC charger?
did you replace the battery with either a NEW Anker 1900, or NEW official HTC battery?
if you can answer yes to both of these questions, then it is possible that your phone may have a hardware failure...
what rom are you using?
2 yes
1)yes, on the official HTC charger it's take so long time.
If the program Battery Monitor Widget is does not lie on the official HTC charger phone max take 250mA.
most takes on the nokia charger - 350mA. and says that the phone is connected to USB
2)yes, i replace with a new official htc battery.

The charger itself could be bad. Do you have another charger or can you borrow another charger for 2 hours to test?
Just about any other charger for a modern smart phone will work. They should all be 1 amp chargers. If it was bought in the last year or two it should be 1 amp. Chances are most people in your life have one.

Try wiping battery stats , I had trouble getting it to charge ,it was at about 80% but had took hours to get to that , wiped battery stats and it was actually 100% charged,
Had to wipe twice and use a battery calibration app twice then switch off and gave it 30min after green light came on but eventually its working fine

Try wiping battery stats , I had trouble getting it to charge ,it was at about 80% but had took hours to get to that , wiped battery stats and it was actually 100% charged,
Had to wipe twice and use a battery calibration app twice then switch off and gave it 30min after green light came on but eventually its working fine

No.
Just no.
Wiping your battery stats did not affect this. Battery stats are just a log file. They have no impact on charging or discharging.
Can I power on my phone without battery when it is conected to charger?

I don't think you made it up.
I am absolutely 100% certain that this is not what fixed your issue, even if you did this right at the same time the issue disappeared. Something else happened, whether you realize it or not. Guaranteed.

I don't think so. I think the battery is part of the internal electrical circuit. It can't route power from the cord directly to the device. If the battery is missing its the same as if you cut an section out of a wire.

Most of the times it comes down to the rom or kernel.

Charging time

Hello, I have bought rooted htc sensation and am very upset with it's charging time, it takes about one hour to charge 10% of battery. Example today I started charging it at 7:05 when it had 49%of battery. Now it's 11:06 and battery shows 88%. I know it's not normal. Is there any way how to fix it, or maybe test my phone somehow? Should new battery solve this problem?

Try deleting battery stats in recovery, this can lead to misreading. Also, usually the battery is higher than the percentage shown, just reboot your phone and you'll see how much battery is left (one time it showed me 2% when I actually had 45%, but that's because I put my phone in a -20C freezer).

Try the 'battery calibration' app on the play store, I believe it can do this. But keep in mind that the battery an lose it's calibration with time, and even if uncalibrated, it will last about the same (although the OS starts saving at 30%).
Battery calibration didn't helped. But I noticed strange thing:
My friend also has htc sensation and his battery fully charges in 4hours. I exchanged my battery with him and charging time is same! He fully charged my battery from 14% to 100% 4 hours and my phone still charges very slow. I started charge his battery from 44%, at first it was charging very fast, but after 4hours it charged only to 88%. I rebooted phone and then it showed 100%. Where is the problem? My phones charges very slow with any battery. I don't want to reboot it every time to show 100%

What ROM do you have? Is it stock or other? I need about 2:30 to be filled in A1-7 4.3 ROM ... Have you tried the USB and what are the results? Maybe make some other rom, so if you do not work fast carge, change the charger and battery

Maybe there is no recovery, so can not check ...
@ domukas00 go to this link and download 4kt recovery, and try what you suggested by Habiri
Try here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1377759
I got the same "problem" but only with custom roms, stock rom doesnt have this problem for me.
But after a reboot the battery shows its actual percentage.

and I added about 10% when I reset the phone .. Try to get into recovery and wipe the Battery status.
Here they say that it takes about 2-3 charge that showed the true condition of the battery

In the end you still have a fully charged battery, it just do not show well while charging?
I read somewhere in albinomena tread to show that when the phone is fully charged, you need to leave for an hour on the charger.
I do not know this dayes my anker is really acting up strange, I can not get over 3h screen on time
Try to change the rom, mabey

Wiping battery stats won't help you.
Put your phone to charge overnight, discharge it completely. Do this for a few days.
Do not wipe battery stats, or you'll have to go all over again.
Happy to help.
