Strange, I haven't noticed this.
1) What phone are you using
2) What ROM are you running
3) Have you wiped your phone along with the cache?

Almost every Android phone. It is a known problem.
I don't seem to have an issue with it.
When it reaches 75%, my bar is 3/4s. When it's 50, its half-way...etc...etc...

Awsome job answering 3 questions with a random statement.
I know the phone stores the info about the battery in a file. This file includes the max charge the battery can charge too. There is a method somewhere on these forums that show how to drain your battery, wipe the file, then do a full charge so the phone can relearn the battery and the correct settings get saved.
I believe flashing new roms and doing storage wipes can cause this file to be removed and created with false info.

No... It has nothing to do with this. Every Android phone I've had... Regardless of whether it is brand new, stock, rooted, flashed, new kernel, anything... Doesn't matter.
May I know how many android phones you previously had?
not trying to flame btw.. but i dont have that case with my phone.. and this is my first phone
You have tokinda program the Lion Batt internal charger first, you charge them full->run till dead--> repeat process 2 times and then the system will be way more accurate. Try this and reply in about 3 days the results.

You guys are still missing it. The ICON is not accurate but the internal sensor is. Jeebus. Look at these links... and it seems as my answer is in the first two sentences:
http://senk9.wordpress.com/2010/06/07/android-app-of-the-day-battery-left-widget/
http://www.androidjunkies.com/index...ets-you-keep-watch-of-your-power-app-reviews/
Honestly, if "it" truly bothers you, why not just put the overlay ontop so you get the "real" percentage.
It's work just fine for me, usually +/- 3% at most, works great on froyo.
Calibrate if it is way off

I'm trying to understand how android calculates battery percentage, and from my testing it seems that the battery meter is hard coded into each particular phone model. This link seems to kinda verify this.
http://www.android-x86.org/documents/howtoconfigurebatteryservice
Does anyone know where in the system the battery file is located? Either the battery driver, or the algorithm it uses, or even a stats file. Anyone able to point me in the right direction? Thanks.

How abouts do you calibrate the visual battery indicator at the top of the notification bar to be within 3%??
Are you talking about something else like the battery charge status reading?
I've experienced the same problem as the OP on all my Android phones as well. It is a problem when you think you have 75% charge and all the sudden you are getting low battery warnings.
same here. Notification Bar battery is hilariously off.

oh yea? mine goes to nine percent...and takes forever for it to shut down. only when i shut down the phone or reboot it, does it not come back on. lol

Ignore that... Wipe battery stats and dalvik cache in Recovery. Preferably after you're charged to 100% and don't unplug until reboot is finished

Really twrp doesn't have "wipe battery stats"? Haven't used it in awhile. More than likely your battery is about to kick it... happened to me twice now. It wouldn't charge all the way then wouldn't charge at all. Get on Amazon and buy a new one before this one kicks it completely.

I was having a problem with battery too recently (on stock, not this rom), and say my battery would go to 0 and phone would turn off
But then I would plug into a charger and turn it on and the batter would be at like 35% (according to the indicator)

Yeah that is a good indicator you need a new battery, according to US Cellular you're supposed to change it every six months... I say every year at least.

I know it's a pain to switch recoveries, but switch to clockwork wipe your battery stats and switch back.
Or flash v5, that will wipe your battery stats too

Batterystats.bin really won't help, android wipes the stats daily when battery gets near 100%. It could be hardware related because i have a G2 that will chew through the same batteries the speedy will run on all day in about 3 hours tops, so now the g2 stays on charge constantly

He said he couldn't get it near 100%. I'm just throwing stuff out there... it's definitely a hardware issue rather than software.

I have tried that a few times, will try again. I took current battery out of phone and let charge in identical phone over night and it went to 100%. The other battery stayed at 52% just can't figure it out. I went as far as uprooting a few days ago

Rooted -- Calkulin's Stock "Battery Saver" ROM -- Xposed Framework -- a few mods from XBlast Tools running.
First off, a Root Explorer search for com.android.systemui returned nothing.
What is com.android.systemui? I don't think I saw this in my usage until a couple of days ago.
Why does 31 seconds of CPU and 1 second of keep awake = almost TRIPLE the battery use of 12 minutes of screen-on time?????

It's the actual System User Interface. So most likely a combination of the rom and xposed are causing this. Also, dirty flashes of ROMs can cause this.
If you installed a new xposed module and noticed a battery drain the uninstall that module. Otherwise remove other xposed modules. You could always try a frew full wipe in recovery as well.
I have had this issue with mostly with dirty flashing which is my queue to do a clean flash. It's also possible if you restored any apps with data, like from Titanium Backup, could potentially cause this as well.

you got caught up in a lie, with buzzwords that are pushing for you to use the rom. theres no such thing as a battery saving rom. all those scripts/mods being used in the rom are just buzzwords. battery life is all dependent on how you personally use your device, how you set up your device, and your data/phone signal quality. a rom will not save you battery.
Thanks for the help, Tom. A visit to recovery to wipe caches and fix permissions and a reboot caused this -->
simms -- I do understand that. I am not really disappointed in my battery life -- and it doesn't seem to have changed much in the week that I've had the phone. But the reporting of it had, and that sort of alarmed me...

wow, your android system is high, even though only 10% battery was used. a reboot might fix that though. you might have to go through your settings and setup again, disable stuff like google location reporting/history(it wont disable your location).

I'm beginning to think the issue I'm having is in the reporting -- not actually a battery use problem. I've only had the phone a week, so my data base is small, but I haven't really seen bad battery life nor any real change in it. Even with some use and a bunch of time fiddling with the mods and stuff, I've yet to go to bed with less than 50% left. Mostly, more...
Here's the latest pics. com.android.systemui is back on top in the overview with 36% The detail page shows 39% and a whole 2 seconds of CPU. That just CAN'T be right...

Which battery graph? You mean the current usage graph I showed in the OP, from Battery Monitor Widget?
Re Bluetooth: I just leave it on, so when I step in the car it just connects to the car. No muss, no fuss, no bother.
I suppose I could try turning it off and see how much battery I save. I know with my previous phone (EVO4G) the point at which I started leaving the bluetooth on all the time didn't change my battery life to any noticeable extent.
Here's battery monitor widget current use. The EVO idled at 70 - 95 ma. This one does seem to draw a lot more at idle. I don't know what's "normal."

Not very interesting. It keeps resetting, every time I plug in to USB to transfer the screenshots to my mac for posting here. I'm not leaving it plugged in very long -- I just move the pics and unplug it. I unplugged it this morning at 7:30 AM. It's now almost seven hours later and I'm at 93%. That ain't bad. It's a gradual descent -- no big drops like the one in your post.

Mine stats those are from my nexus 7 2013, Sot of around 4 and still 55% battery left.
I just showed u for sample. A simple restart should fix as simms told
I m on stock rom with x blast tool never happened with me....u can try to use ur phone in safe mode and see...I know its a system app but u can give a try with bluetooth off. Or flash a diff rom and see
If your phone is vibrating a lot and you have extra UI elements installed this seems normal.
When you only use a small percentage of the full battery smaller drains appear large.
Bit off topic, but have you thought of using WiFi to move your files over? No messing with the wire and you could even automate the task.

Thanks for the push. Found a nifty WiFi file transfer app this morning. Boy, is that slick!
I recently replaced the battery in my one and ever since I have not been able to accurately monitor my battery. The battery percentage does not accurately indicate how much power the phone has. When the phone powers off and is turned back on the battery percentage shows 100%. The phone only lasts a few hours before it powers off and has to be powered back on. I'm currently running CM 12.1 nigtly's rooted and unlocked bootloader. The phone will die but when I try to turn it back on it takes two attempts and then turns on and shows 100%. I've tried all kinds of battery calibration apps and methods but nothing has worked. Any help would be appreciated.

My phone is lasting about 2hrs now with minimal use before having to be turned off and back on. When back on the battery shows 100%. Any help would be appreciated since I'm ready to throw this phone out. The lack of support from the company proves they are not ready to release products and don't care about their customers.

If you unlock your bootloader, the device will be wiped anyways.
You can try to investigate with Android battery history and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.digibites.accubattery but it's not really detailed.
