This is the same recovery as in my thread but has now been modified to be used to charge with the phone off rather than have to change to the stock recovery.

And that was a glitch because I havent had any issues with it at all.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] burshturs:
Hello All,

I hope someone could help. I am running Wolfbreak's ROM and using Adobe Flash 10.2 from Market. The player works fine, but when playing a long video (ie, a TV show episode from Megaupload) the phone reboots itself.

I noticed that if I underclock the processor to 699 it doesn't reboot as quickly as before. However, it reboots after a while.

I disabled all tweaks on my phone (sysctl, build.prop mods, theme) so all I am missing is to reflash unless somebody else confirms the same issue.

Can someone try to stream a whole movie and see how it goes?
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] zax10:
Not really to sure what is going on? I have streamed full tv shows, played games, but have not watched any movies. I have not had a single reboot since flashing WB newest rom. I would try to reflash and see if it fixes the problem.
[XPERIA X10 Themes and Apps] memazy:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Hi guys,

I've noticed that if I plug my phone to the wall charger, when it reaches 95% it just stops charging. I can unplug it and plug it again, and I can reach 100% by repeating the process multiple times, but not in one sitting?

Is this normal? Does it happen to you? Does it get better?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richrach:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Wow. So, is this some kind of feature or what?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eiabea:
as far as i know, its an known bug ;)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoA:
Its by design - charging the battery to only 95% level & then the following discharge. It elongates the battery life. It should never charge to level's exceeding the above.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navlem:
It's not a bug.

Most batteries lifespan drop if being on high voltage too long (100%)

So usually manufacturers will try to let it state it is fully charged before it even reach 100% to extend the lifespan of the battery.

But if you really want to see it charged fully you can do a battery stats wipe in recovery after a ROM flash. It will be able to charge to 100% fully.

Hope that helps.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eiabea:
tried this methode, but no success.

i come from a X10 and SE build in a charging algorithm: battery charged fully, hold this value for one hour and let the battery fall till it reaches 90% and charge again.

do you mean such methode to extend battery life??

the phone from my boss (i9020) charges to 100%, my (i9023) only to 96%
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] navlem:
96% is ok, as i said, being in high voltage often kills the battery. 96% keeps it's lifespan much longer.

Being said that, even extremely low voltage kills the battery too. So usually your phone will die before the battery reach 0%
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamarama:
Not this again :eek:

From the FAQ post, in this very forum, which should be read before posting a new thread:

Q: I unplugged my phone, and my battery dropped from 100% to 95% immediately, or it won't/takes along time to charge past 99%, what gives?

The answer leads to this informative article about what your battery gauge is telling you, and why 100% is probably not what you want ...

http://www.androidpolice.com/2010/12/14/your-battery-gauge-is-lying-to-you-everything-you-need-to-know-about-bump-charging-and-inconsistent-battery-drain/
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
While I thank you for your reply and linking to that article, that is a related issue but not exactly the same. The usual behaviour is for the battery to indicate a 100% charge and then drop to a lower level, as you bolded in your post. The behaviour I'm talking about is it never going over 95%.

Not a big difference, but enough to notice the change and ask about it. Don't you think?
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NeoA:
I myself own a GT-I9020T & have never seen the charge levels exceed beyond 95%.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shamarama:
You are right, your description is subtly different than the post in the FAQ. I have to admit laziness in assuming that they would be one and the same 'problem' ... apologies if they're not.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frandavid100:
Well, you did give useful info even though you thought it was an old, tired question. I can't see a reason to give apologies there :-)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bolabola118:
Turn the tethering on while charging; it'll charge the battery up to 100%:)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] OuncE718:
I think my Vibrant had the same issue / feature. It's probably a Samsung feature and not a bug.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Zenoran:
Mine hits 100pct sometimes but will always stop charging until it drops below 90. A good feature to save the battery. Makes 0 sense for it to be charging every time it drops 1pct for hours at night while on the charger.

I'm wondering if people seeing a difference in the overall charge cap is a matter of rom? I've been using cm for practically ever but I know some people are on stock. I'm sure it's possible something is modded in there to make sure it hits 100 before it stops.

Just a thought.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] richrach:
On nexus s with stock rom I was able to charge to 100%
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eiabea:
LOL can someone confirm that? :eek:

maybe thats the problem, because the phone of my friend also charges to 100% (completly stock) mine only to 96% (NSCollab)
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Si_NZ:
How much difference does it make to charge to 100%? Mine always charges to 97%, and when I look at the voltage, it's always around 4.17~4.18V. That's as close as you can get to 4.2V, the supposely 100% voltage. However, in reality, charging to 4.2V may very well does damage to battery's health.

I think the % doesn't matter, it's the voltage that matters. You can very well say 4.18V is at 100% if you like. However, if your phone stays at 95% "charging" and never becomes "full", only then you should start to worry.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] glmrckr:
I believe the max voltage is 4187 or 4192 to be exact.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] maltloaf:
I bought an external charger from ebay and charged my battery in it overnight. Next time I put it in the phone (I have 2 genuine batteries) it showed 100% for the first time ever. Ever since then it charges fine to 100% in the phone and discharges as normal. 100 - 99 - 98 etc. I honestly just think the battery needed a 'proper' charge cycle and the charging circuit in the phone isn't up to the job
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dudeimgeorge:

[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
im modded the nexus one battery driver, and got the changes incorporated in cyanogen source code officially. i looked at the nexus s driver, and there are a few things i wanted to try out to fix this full charge bug. but i never bought a nexus s to test on in the first place. i'm of the thinking that this is NOT intentional, no matter what may have been said, and its just a bug inherent to the type of battery and driver samsung is using. but i never got to edit the source code and test, maybe someday.

My Nexus S charged to 100% last night.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eGozelle:
since i got my i9023 NS i noticed it only charging up to 96% (stock 2.3.3).

i was worried in the beginning, but after some forum searching and googling i found out that it actually is a feature to extend the battery life.

it's discussed in threads like this..

i also read a couple of articles about extending your batteries life time when NOT letting it fully discharge, but start charging them around 50% again.

unfortunatly those are german, but i'm sure there is lots of information on the web in english too.

i'm not really worried now, since i believe it's only best for my battery.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] icase81:
After a few weeks, mine has started going to 100% every time. 2.3.1 -> NSCollab couldn't get above 96%. Went back to stock 2.3.3 and after a week of that its going to 100% regularly.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RogerPodacter:
i still think this issue is related to voltage drop. if you look at the nexus s battery driver, it lists voltage tables with values for different voltages. other phones, like the nexus one, do not rely on voltage, but instead use "coloumb counting" to show battery percent. nexus s seems to rely on voltages instead. therefore its possible the voltage drop when initially unplugging drops the voltage. or when you are charging to full, its not reaching the desire top voltage, or some combination of this. i dont know exactly, but i'd bet my money on it.
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] danpaul:
98%

Mine is charging usually 95-97%.

I tried the trick with tethering ON while charging and I reached only 98% and that only if I start charging bellow 20%.

My i-9020a will charge to 100% when using the wall charger it came with but when I charge it overnight in the dock on my night stand it'll top out between 95% and 97%. Doesn't seem to have a negative impact on battery consumption during the day. I wonder if the issue is either a display bug, or something related to how "awake" the phone is while charging (the dock keeps the phone awake even when you hit the power switch to turn the display off)

I LOVE the Androdena theme and have ported most parts over from it that I liked and matched with a few elements of the default Simply Honey theme :D!

This is simply... the most... f***ing amazing ROM! I'm a flash junkie and wow I honestly don't care if 2.3 ever comes out because this ROM is perfect and think it has cured me (for now) of my flashing addiction.

I want to say a

HUGE

thanks to Tonicacid for the original port of Androdena for Bionix 1.3.1 and of course, to the original creator of this amazing theme dena994!

Here are screenshots. It isn't 100% Androdena but I've kept the really neat stuff I liked :).

Flashable zip via CWM made by Tonicacid, press the thanks button a few posts down :).

EDIT:

I also added another flashable zip to make the dialer stretch correctly when using a density lower than 240 (I personally use 190).

Not sure if it'll work on like 230 or 210 but I believe it should. Nandroid just in case.

[Vibrant Themes and Apps] buru898:
Heh thanks :). I love blue and this theme is amazing and it was love at first sight :).

Flashed back to simply honey only because of the theme lol but when I have more free time I do plan on staying with bionix until an official 2.2.1 or 2.3 for the Vibrant comes out :).

Expect one for bionix for sure though.

Given the variety of mods and roms already available I expect we're not far off from seeing an app that attempts to tame the biggest suspected source of battery draw on the TB: the 4g radio.

How easy would it be to develop an app that toggles on the 3g radio after so many minutes of a screen timeout? 4g would kick back in upon wake. Or is there something out already?

Again, this is just a toggle. I'd like to see an app that switches to a 3g signal when the display has been asleep for so many minutes of inactivity and turns 4g back on when the display comes back up. Ideally it would have an override widget that toggled the auto manager on and off.
[Thunderbolt Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] want a droid:
Magnus' idea for an app is awesome i would definitely pay for an app that would control the radio so efficiently. The screen off to 3G with screen wake to 4G would be wonderful

No LTE toggles exist at this point, and there seems no way easy/obvious way to programaticly turn it on or off without some changes being made. I am working on some patches to allow this now.

Someone might at some point pull out the parts of the update and roll it into something you can flash over anything, but I highly doubt it as it's a pain in the ass and doesn't offer much benefit. Just backup your system with TiBu and flash back to 1.2.6, follow the proper procedure, and restore your backup (NOT system apps though). Not really all that hard.

hxxp://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/issues/detail?id=915&sort=-id

(sorry for hxxp, not enough posts)

There's an issue on the developer's google code page for Wifi Tether. From the log that's posted, it looks like one of the system calls was changed in gingerbread. (Just an observation from my limited knowledge)

I tried 3g Mobile Hotspot built-in app and my 3G icon just repeatedly disappears. After turning off Hotspot, I still don't have a connection and have to disable/enable radio to get it back or reboot.
[Droid X General] Brenardo:
Please forgive me for my lack of knowledge but could you explain this a little further.
[Droid X General] Brenardo:
I may be too cautious in regards to using the stock Hotspot feature, can you confirm that no charges apply?
[Droid X General] chucklesjh:
In the log that's posted on the link I provided you see a lot of this:

getsockopt for multiport failed strangely: No such file or directory

It makes me think that something was changed in the system that causes it to start 3G Mobile Hotspot when firing up Wifi Tether. A little googling reveals this:

The getsockopt() function manipulates options associated with a socket.

So I'm guessing the appropriate sockets are not getting created or modified correctly for tethering to function properly and somehow the 3G Mobile Hotspot app is triggered. According to MDW and whatnot, the Hotspot app is supposedly prepatched but 3G drops repeatedly for me, so something is amiss. From what I can tell, 3G Mobile Hotspot is no longer an app even though it shows up in the App Drawer, if you try to remove it by dropping it on the trash on LauncherPro, it tries to remove Settings. It looks like tethering is just built in now.
