Flashed device, battery resetted 100%

Hey i flashed my device with the battery at around 80%.
after the flash it was 100%...
so this means i just lost 20% of my capacity? how do i fix this?

I don't believe you have lost capacity. It's only your gauge that's slightly altered. If you recharge your device fully(and about an extra 30min) you should have the regular capacity

How could going from 80% to 100% equate to a lost ???
it's posible that you'd gained the extra charges while the flashing process was going on ( because it was plugged in ?? ) ... if it wasn't ... no idea why

If i understand the post correctly they are equating am 80% to 100% a loss for 2 reasons:
1. because he would have lost charge while flashing due to the massive battery drain.
2. because now he is stating that his 100% is really only 80%
but i would probably just leave it charge overnight and you should be fine, the gauge just sounds to be off, it shouldnt be a true loss (unless the battery is bad)

Is there any other way to sync the battery with the device? I been trying a full discharge then charge.
I am using a mugen extended 3000mah battery and at 15% 10% and 1% it will stay there for some time before it starts to go down or turn off completely if it is reaches less than 1%.

I don't think you've lost capacity.
I believe you just did a quick check before flashing (and it was already charging before you started right?), and the battery gauge wasn't updated. I had this a couple of times while recharging. I take a quick look and think "this is gonna take another half hour". Five minutes latter I check and the charge led is green again.
Sometimes the battery metter lags a bit, you have to check it again to be sure when charging.
At least it happens to me.

a few cycles of full charge and discharge should put the battery meter in check...

Alrighty. I have done three so far. It has gotten better then the first time I got it. But its not perfect.

is it safe to discharge it to 0% so that it will shutdown? or what?

Charging time and battery life need help here

I JUST CHANGE MY PHONES BATTERY TO A REPLACEMENT WHICH IS GOOD AS THE ORIGINAL BUT, ITS NORMAL THAT I CHARGE IT IN ALMOST 4HRS? like i dont even use it just leaving it alone charging..
GUYS, HOW MANY HOURS DO YOU CHARGE YOUR NEXUS S GSM? FROM LIKE BELOW 5% or 10% BELOW..
AND HOW MANY DAYS/HOURS THE NORMAL NEXUS S GSM BATTERY LIFE SPAN?
IM USING CODENAME ANDROID 3.5.0 ROM NOW..

Up need help please on how to solve this problem (

to hit 97% (max battery on stock) i need those 4 hours... but i usually charge it over night so there is no problem

It's a 1500mah battery. The stock charger charges at 500mah. Ergo, 3 hours minimum to charge to 100% while off. Either get a 1amp charger or get used to it.

Heating when charging

Hello Guys,
when charging my honor 8, I have noticed that the back of the phone gets really hot; especially when charging is initiated at low battery(less than 20% of battery).
The battery temp gets up to 40C (104F), measured with Using Simple System Monitor app.
I use huawei Quick Charge that comes with the phone.
Is there something to worry about or is this common? I know that too much heat on the battery can cause its early failure.
Thank you,
John

high temperatures will affect the battery life over time, are you using the phone while charging or are there apps running in the backgound using the cpu?

I am not using the phone while charging. It is connected on wifi and no apps running on background.

That's really hot. And not normal. You can talk to the guys in service center for it.

40C to 45C for battery is normal guys while charge is droped and charging ! ..
same as for CPU Temp . 40~45 is normal when u r gaming .
above 50 is not normal . and yes if the battery is low and using charge try to turn it off or don't use it while charging ! ..
and i know since 2 years that a good way to keep battery healthy is to charge only when battery drop after 20% and charge less than 95% and never use phone while charging . will keep battery healthy ! .

Status update
With stock Huawei fast charger plugged in for 10mins the battery gets hot (around 38C) and the input current gets down to 300mah (from 2700mah). The wall brick charger is not hot at all. So I guess is something to do with my device.
That way the charging process will take very long time.
I tried a lenovo charger with max output 2000mah (I measured 1700mah with the monitor app). The battery seems to charge fine with it and not overheating. However, charge time from 20% is approx. 90 mins.
Summary, Huawei quick charging sucks...at least for me
Note: for those wondering if I have a faulty battery, I can get 4 hours of SOT so I assume that my battery is still good.

Quick charge only works on the Huawei charger. Quick charge works by pushing higher current to charge the battery quicker up to about 50%. My phone gets warm from charging if it's below 50% because of the quick charge. I've experienced this on all of the phones I've owned that had quick charge.
Honestly, it sounds like you may have a bad Huawei brick.

The Honor 8 shouldn't get uncomfortable hot while charging. It should get hot but not so hot that you can't touch it. I would contact on Honor about the problem if it becomes persistent.

This is a really old post. But I am making it for the benefit of people stumbling across this thread.
So I must say that info is incorrect.
You battery temp should not go above 42 while gaming and that is really too hot. Ideal gaming temp is 40.5C and battery idle temp should be between 33-35c
For Battery longevity
When charging, you really don't want to go above 80% or below 20% and its better to charge throughout the day sporadically than leaving the phone on the charger for too long.
Again , sorry for commenting on a very old post. But maybe the info will help someone.

I added that people should be cautious about battery heat.
But let me also ad that it would be wise to learn how thermals work and how to build your own thermal profiles for battery longevity.
Sent from my Xiaomi MI 8 using XDA Labs

Some iphones have this problem and my honor 8 is having this problem too. My battery has half of its capacity now, i'm waiting a new battery to replace it

First charging on a new battery! ASAP

Hi all!
I bought a new battery mi bn43 for my Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X. It was charged by 30% on first power on.
I charged it up to 80%.
Should I make 0-100% charging cycles? Searching the internet there are 2 concepts, one that I shouldn't do any extra charging and the other that i should...
Does anyone know what is the best thing to do?
I now have it working after I charged it to 80%..
thanks guys.

Give it a few 100% charges first, then I usually do the 80% - 20%...

A couple full charges 40-100% to feel it out.
In normal use I generally keep it tighter, 40-65%.
I rarely ever go beyond 75%
Do not charge a cool battery ie > 72°F
82-90°F is probably optimal.
Never charge if near of below freezing.
Avoid high charge levels plus high temperatures.

Thanx!
Should I drain it to 0% before 100%?

Yes to create a baseline.
After which try to avoid going below 30-40% and over 80% (40-65% is ideal) to minimize battery stress. Li's like frequent midrange charge cycles.

Battery life is very poor on my couple of year old moto g fast

If my phone is off the charger and In use I only get about 4-5 hours of use. Could I have ruined the battery by constantly letting it sit on the charger?

i have an older Huawei P30 Pro with good battery life.
Anyway we cant say if you battery is ruined.
The problem could be apps/mods or a new firmware

A battery gets ruined when it's charge isn't not constantly kept in the range 20% - 80%.
