Hey guys, I have just noticed something weird. My phone when completely dead and charging does not charge up 100 percent. it maxes out to 96 in the course of 7 hours. Any ideas? i am on paranoid 3 and stock kernel btw? Thanks this also happens on stock 4.2.2
Were you charging it while it was on or off?

There is a mechanism in place to prevent overcharging while off.

Yep, I think it's supposed to stop at 95%.

Does it say this for anyone else? It used to say discharging.

guess they realized that "discharge" was the worst word in the english dictionary
Charging (AC)
Try unplugging the cable from Charger and the tablet and unplug the charger from the wall, then connect everything back up again. This fixes it fro me most of the time.

Yep just realised that after I updated to android 4.2 last night on my galaxy nexus. I thought it was weird!
Anyone else noticing that the battery percentage goes down incredibly fast when screen is on ?
I've never ever seen a phone go down so fast and I've had the note

i've actually been pleasantly surprised at the battery life on mine! Over two hours of screen time midway through my day yesterday and i was just above 60%
Have been advised to turn cell broadcast off
Supposed to save a bit if battery.

My advice, get Tasker to disable mobile data and WiFi when screen is off. Disable Google Now. Disable NFC. Disable GPS until you actually use it. Enjoy your 5+ hour screen on battery life.

exactly my thinking.
Why the hell does the Nexus consume soooo much battery ? I have turned most of the stuff off but you dont get any Google Now, emails etc dont work correctly, - totally useless.
My S2 is better than this.

I've literally watched the battery tick down every 2-3 minutes right before my very eyes doing absolutely nothing. Just had the screen on. SMH

I really want this phone at 3pm today but is the battery THAT bad? I thought they learned from the Galaxy Nexus.

yeah its worse than my Galaxy S2. - battery stats say its the screen but that's on auto and its already dim as hell. When off it consumes power if WiFi is on.

Hold up... So you're saying... Having the screen on... Which uses more battery than screen off drains the battery? :what:
My current ROM kernel combo is battery efficient

And? Most people don't seem to get this: Say your battery depletes 1% for every 3 minutes you have the screen on, that's 300 minutes, or 5 hours, of screen time. Which is more than acceptable.

Yeah def better than the gnex which was rather good too. I took my phone off of charge @ 7:20am and put it on charge when it had 4% left @ 1:30am. So pretty much lasted 18 hours with medium use.

The Note is an extremely ****ty device to compare to. The battery it has is much larger than ours.

What do you mean cell broadcast? Where is that?
my N4 is 1% per minute screen on
2% streaming video, that right, 40 minute netflix = 80% battery gone
NFC and cell broadcast off, gps off, screen at 50% brightness
Like a fool i sold my iPhone 5 and got the nexus 4 only to be having this issue FML

I just installed apex launcher yesterday and thought id change the power toggles icon to battery to keep an eye on how the launcher would affect my battery life. A few hours ago i charged my phone fully. I noticed the battery went to 98 percent fairly quickly but then it went back up to 100. I checked my battery stats to make sure it wasnt just the power toggles playing up. But the graph actually showed the battery percentage going up.
Any ideas?
Is your device new?

The battery meter and graph are more of a rough approximation of your battery. It reads off of the current the battery receives. If it spikes you could see the battery graph drop a little and then go back up.

AW: Weird Battery?
I had this 100-98-100 bug, too. Happened to me 2 times. It seems to be just a small bug, doesn't bother me too much.

Unplug the cable and plug it back in again. No need to reboot.

I think he means off the charger, happened to me when I flashed franco.. It stayed on the same percentage for a hour or two. I thought this kernel cant be this impressive can it!

You're right. I just realized that too he didn't say anything about charging. Oops. It's that darn battery bug.

Have you drop it before?
If yes then the cells in the battery has damaged
if no, you can try calibrating it

Do you have a recommended calibration method. I tried one a while back but it didn't help.
Am uprooted, a
I want to calibrate it
Well i use root and what you should do is Charge the battery to full then unplug the charger > Use phone normally without charging until the phone depletes at 0%
Recharge the phone to full again and PROFIT
No root needed
2. Method > Charge the phone to 100% > unplug > use it normally
Must be faulty battery because we have done that repeatedly

I had the same problem, just buy a new one from anker. They work great, I got 2 along with a external charger. I keep one in my car armrest and one in my office and I never charge my battery anymore, I just swap them out.
