the same. I am curious why

I can't explain it technically, but its because the battery is being monitored while discharging at different rates.

The phone doesn't actually "know" the battery level, it only knows certain points, and the rest is interpolated based on previous usage. If the interpolation is off, then it is corrected at those bumps.

I think it increases the bigger the battery capacity is. When I was using a 7,000 mah extended battery on my old phone it would actually go back up a couple of %.

up!

App to show battery ma's?

Mods, I know this is an app question and we do have a app sections but I assumed it had a higher possibility of being answered in the accessories section.
Q. Is there an app with can measure ma's to a battery? I know WM has a similar program called tbattery. I just received my red ebay battery and wanted to see if they are really (when it comes to numbers) 1800ma batteries.
Thanks. I'll post pics, when I get an app.
search for batterylife widget from curvefish, you can configure to show extended info in the settings
It only shows mv not mah

I don't think there is, Batteryboss.org uses this setup to determine mah.

I don't think they would go through so much trouble if there was an app for it. Hope that helps.
Anyone happen to know i could wire a battery to work for the hd2? Foil or some sort of wiring. WM has a cab which reads mah with no problem. Tbattery.

Power saver ROM

hi.
i have installed "codename android",great ROM,only one problem:
Battery goes very fast.
can i get a suggation for good rom,that save power?
or should i just install kernel,that will give the option to OC/UC/UV,but stay on STOCK ROM?
BUMP
When you say battery goes fast what do you mean?
How long does your battery normally last?
Does it drain the battery quickly while in sleep mode?
Or does it drain quickly while using it? Could you post screenshots of your battery usage like so?

Could something have been downloading / updating in the background?
I'm a big fan of Badass Battery Monitor. It can also help identify your power drains.
Recommended alternative app "Wakelock Detector"
it also shows wakelocks which holds your screen awake!
I recommend Gsam battery monitor.

That to me looks most likely some setting and ROM issue. Make a backup flash another ROM try how it goes but am pretty sure Any other ROM shouldn't drain this much. Don't want to judge any ROM or anything just trying to help.
What battery model is it? Some of the extended batteries going around are just regular cells in a fat case with shims, especially the cheaper ones.

2600mAh Flash Charger

I figured I would share this with you all. It's $12 for the next 18 hours.

It would in definitely be worth it in a work environment where you don't have quick access to an outlet such as a construction job like I have myself. I even picked one up for my girlfriend because she is always losing her charger and she can keep this in her purse. I hope you all take advantage of it while you can!
