Ok I've now had two occasions I've put my device on charge when gone to bed and when got up it's only charged to 79% first time device was on around 30% and second time 64% as had to charge it earlier in the evening due to heavy use gaming etc during the day , both times averageing 5/6 hrs on charge while sleeping (I'm a light sleeper ) so I can fully charge from say 30% to near full in 30/40 mins during the day yet leaving to charge when asleep for 5hrs+ it's not charging to full seems odd it can't get from 64% to 100% in 5hrs + I know it trickle charges after certain % but should be still fully charge in that time and it doesn't do it every time since last update 10.5.4 it's done it twice I also know it learns your battery pattern but still should be charging to 100% regardless is there maybe something in the battery optimization settings I should or should not have toggled on like optimised charging would that cause it to do it? Just curious if anybody else has come across same same issue
Thanks [emoji4]

Anybody else notice this ? mine is still doing it not every night but now and again will only charge to 90% and stop is this a fault or normal? is it a feature of the charging optimization feed back would be appreciated before I return coz if nobody else is experiencing it then deff issue with phone , thanks

Nothing here, charging to 100% every time.
Mine came w/the charging optimization toggled on & I've left it set at that.
Guessing there'd be no harm in toggling it off to see if that makes any difference for you. If it were unsafe, I'd imagine there'd be no option to toggle it off.
FWIW, I'm on the T-Mobile US variant (stock/unrooted).
I have it toggled off maybe I should have it on seems daft to have a toggle if it's Going to do that and only charge 90% if turned off it's odd as I can plug in and charge it 100% in few mins but over night it won't full charge

Are you rooted? Any battery limit/health apps installed? If not, do you use the same outlet every night when you plug in the charger? If so, I'd suggest trying a different outlet to see if it is still having an issue. If so, the only other option would be a factory reset and if it continues you may want to reach out to OnePlus for support.

Hey guys, I have a problem with my Sensation. Whenever I fully charge it and then remove it from the charger, use it for like an hour or two, the phone still thinks the battery is 100% charged. When looking inside the battery usage, it shows the graph with 0s underneath it, while in the previous screen where you see the apps battery usage it says 2h 5m 13s or something like that.
This wouldn't really be a problem, but when I started up Maps Navigation and plugged the charger in the car, it wouldn't charge because it still assumed the battery was 100% charged!
Any of you also having this problem? Thanks in advance!

Does it stay 100% forever? Then you may have the inexhaustible battery... (not sure if this is grammaticaly correct )
I wouldn't consider this a problem. You can download a battery monitoring app from the market and see what's going on with your phone and if the 100% that it's rerporting is correct. Also, check that the battery contacts are clean.
Not sure my phone does that but it can be on half charge then when I reset phone it's gone up a notch. This morning it didn't look like it had charged although it had been plugged in. When I switched it was on orange then it did the charging animation for a few seconds without charger plugged in then stopped on full. Odd.
Mine stays on 100% for a couple of hours too, has done since I got it.
I think perhaps HTC are "cheating" (or using "creative coding", whichever expression you prefer) in the way they report the battery percentage. Make the battery appear better than it is. Just a theory, of course.

That happens to me a lot too. Woke up this morning, phone had been charging for nearly 5 hours, but was only on 82%. After a couple of minutes of the screen being on, it had leapt to 100% and stopped charging.
Also, once the battery is below about 20%, it will sometimes drop 2-3% at a time. Odd.
Looks like they totally screwed the battery meter hardware or something in the software. Remembers me of my iPod touch
Experienced the say.. hopefully either it will auto be fine due to charge cycle or via updates

Thanks for your answer, so it's probably a general problem that may be fixed by either HTC or the Cooks that make ROM's for our beautiful new phones
Can you tell me how long it takes for your phone to fully charge?My phone needs 3-4 hours to fully charge..is this normal?!
Hmm mine doesn`t lag but it takes times to charge. Usually with my hd2 take around less than 2 hours to fully charge now with sensation around 3 hours

I received my phone yesterday and charged it for 4-5 hours throughout the day. Last night it was close to 100% while I was playing with it (off the charger). I then charged it over night for 9 hours. This morning the battery says it's at 50% but has 15 hours left.
Weird :\
Charge the battery with the power turned off overnight, in the morning unplug the charger, turn the phone on, and shutdown again, and plug the charger back for 30
mins phone still turned off. After that start using the phone normally, this way you calibrate the phones battery meter properly.

Thanks mate! I'll do that tonight
Is it possible to overcharge the battery? I ask because when I first got the phone and fully charged it, it would stay on 100% for at least a couple hours (using circle battery widget which reads in increments of 1%) but one night I fell asleep with it plugged into the charger and when I got up it still read 100% but as soon as I unplugged it it went immediately to 99%. I have not yet been able to get it to read 100% unless its connected to the charger. Think I could get the batt replaced under warranty since its only 2-3 weeks old?

Your battery is fine, it is set up so that it will not overcharge. I tried searching for an article that explained how the system is set up but couldnt find it.

I'll look in to that. But what about the battery immediately dropping to 99% when I take it off the charger?
sent from my Motorola Atrix 2 via Tapatalk
Every android phone I've had has dropped like that as soon as I've taken it off charge, nothing to really worry about.
They do a think called power cycling. It will charge it to 100% then shut off then once it goes back down it will charge it to 100% again. Ill try to find the article. Your battery is fine.

Weird. My SE Xperia X10 didn't do that, it would stay at 100% for at least an hour. I recalibrated my battery a couple days ago, thinking it would remedy this "problem" and after it died on me I charged it back to 100% and took it off the charger at 10pm, set my alarm on it and let it sit overnight. After pressing snooze on my phone 3 times and finally getting up at 630am it still was at 100%! So it's strange to me that this drops to 99% immediately but if it's happening to everyone else I won't worry too much.

Well if I were to judge off that, mine stays at 100% for hours......im going on 7hrs right now. But I use battery circle widget which reads in 1% increments......as soon as my phone comes off the charger it goes straight to 99%......it didnt do that before.

Battery Charging & calibration query
What difference does it make if you charge from empty to 100% in switched off stage and the same in on state? Which is better? How should we calibrate the battery and how often using which app for unrooted MB865 Asia retail? Also if phone dies (switches off) constantly due to insufficient charge does it harm the battery in terms of cells getting destroyed gradually & finally does switching off or switching on the phone while charging have any effect issue on phone or the battery?? Thanks in advance for inputs for all queries.
Previously I had Huawei with 4.0.3 and in night time (wifi disabled, sync disabled, no apps active) battery dropped about 3 points, but with Moto it's about 10 points.

The one of mine used last night more or less the same, around 10% with wifi, no apps running, no data conection, etc. I'm a little bit worried about it, i think it's too much battery drop :/

Tonight, in almos 6 hours my battery has dropped around 4% being in airplane mode. I have installed betterbatterystats and i cannot see anything strange
what used up the 4% that is not strange?
I unplugged my phone at around 3am because I rolled over and noticed the notification led blinking. I was at 100% and cleared the notification. Went back to sleep then got up around 5:30am and looked at my phone. I noticed my battery was down more than I expected so I checked the stats. I was down almost 20% in 2 hours 30 minutes. Android OS was at 60% usage with time on a 2 hours 20 minutes. I had sleep assist turned on during the night and I also keep wifi and data on. I've installed Wakelock Detector to see if it will be able to see what in Android OS is keeping my phone on.

fyi. when you charge your phone, the battery starts discharging once the battery is FULL, NOT when the cable is unplugged. However, the battery % will not drop whilst the phone is plugged in,
Therefore, if you charge your phone fully but don't unplug it for hours, it 'may' appear to discharge faster than normal once you do unplug it. (basically the phone will over present it's true charge level).
If you unplug the phone as soon as its fully charged, however, it will appear to discharge more slowly...

you can test if for yourself if you don't believe me... It protects the battery..
it is very relevant for people who charge their phone over night. The Android battery stats will start the clock ticking from 9am when they unplug their phone, however the battery started discharging 6 hours erlier when he phone was fully charged at 3am... The % then drops much faster than expected as it races to it's 'true' level of charge. This could explain the differences people are seeing in some cases...

actually you are just partially right. the percentage only drops until reaching a trigger level, where it starts to charge again. also in my opinion when the phone is charged and left plugged in it uses the power directly and leaves the battery untouched

Hogwash.
Lithium batteries don't retain a memory.. You can charge them as often as you want... No matter what percentage your at. And if you leave it plugged in it will keep your battery fully charged with a trickle charge at 100...
I'm not sure what wives tales you've been reading.... But not everything on the Internet is true.... So you know.
I read something else around here lately where a guy was saying basically if you plug in at bedtime, you better wake up after a couple hours and unplug.... Or you'll damage your battery. Lol
Anyway.... Charge how ever you feel you need to.... To each their own. But I guarantee your battery will not drain quicker cause you left it charging all night.... That's simply ridiculous.
No offence.

its not hogwash, I think maybe you misunderstood me. I'm well aware lithium cells aren't memory cells. In fact, check my post history I posted as much in a thread of someone asking 'how best to first charge their moto G'. So if this is what you thought I meant, fairplay.
However,
Someone clarified above there is a 'threshold' level. however, these phones do not 'trickle charge' it's not a car battery. Charging at full amps when the battery is full would damage it, hence it stops charging, starts to discharge, then at some 'threshold level' will begin charging again, it does not trickle charge..
Also, as a matter of fact a friend of mine is an electrical engineer, does small Linux projects and some work on ARM architecture. I first heard about this behaviour when charging whilst on the XDA S2 forum. We tested the charge in the S2 1650mha battery ourselves and found we could get a variety of charge levels all shown as '100%' on the phone, just by when we unplugged the charger. I'm making an assumption this phone behaves the same, however why would it not?
So, all I would say to anyone on this forum. Just because someone has a lot of posts and thanks and 'knows his stuff' , This guy should take his own advice and not believe everything he reads on the internet...

HI everyone, for the second day I noticed that after I left my N5 to charge overnight it was fairly hot after I took it off the charger. I have been leaving it to charge overnight for months and normally its not even warm since it trickle chargers after hitting 100%. My Nexus was charging right next to it and it was cool when I took that off the charger. It did fully charge and I checked if the phone was maybe not sleeping the entire night but that wasn't the case either. I checked with Current Widget and it was showing that even at 100% it was still taking around 200 mAh power. Usually it shows very minimal charge at 100%. Has this happened to anyone? I know I've read this happening with wireless chargers where it the phone wouldn't even charge, but in this case the phone was charged and it was just using the stock charger.
It also seems like I'm getting the Android OS bug after taking it off the charger. I suppose this might the cause of the entire thing. I'm just worried that it happened two days in a row.
The phone continues charging passed 100%. First it will still show 450mA eventually dropping to 200mA or so as you saw. Eventually true 100% is reached and the battery starts draining 0-10mA while the AC provides the rest.

Thanks, that's what should happen. But it seemed the past two nights it never dropped to 0-10 mah. Which is why I think it was hot in the morning. I just charged it from about 70% to 100% and it did trickle charge this time, so hopefully the issue is solved now. Has this happened to anyone though?
I am wondering besides turning on the feature. How does it work? Does it take into account of other features turning on?
I read on OnePlus forum. So I tried it out last night. I put my phone on the wired charger at 5% battery @ 11:45PM. By 12:45AM ish it was already fully charged. My impression is that it slows down charging on overnight charge near the time I wake up.
Yes but I think you need to do it a few times so it learns when to charge that way. I could be wrong but that's how I understand it.
Sent from my IN2017 using Tapatalk
I could never get it to work either so I installed the GUI version of ACCA. It works perfectly. I have it set to charge up to 95% and then it'll discharge (if I have it plugged in) until 85% then it'll charge back up to 95%. I also have it set to turn the phone off at 15%.
