An original battery costs $49. Those less than $10 are actually fake ones that usually yield lower charge then advertised. If you get one that is almost equal to 1,200mAh is considered a good deal, but it is rare and it is trial by error.

This is pretty much how the 'batteries market' work on the internet. You can talk to "Mister B" who deals with the manufacturers of these batteries, for more information. My own experiences on the Xperia Pro and previously on HTC HD2 confirms it too.

hi, thanks a lot for that test. i have nearly the same hardware like u ( xperia pro cm9 FXP133, 3400mAh and 32gb sd with link2sd)

i spend a lot of time (2-4hrs for 2 weeks) seaching and reding in multiple android forums, but i dont find any solution. may you can help me.

if i drain the 3400mAh battery with 1% til the phone turns of, i have to plug it out and in 3-5 times til it charges normaly.

it always say after 5 to 10 minutes if i plugt it in "error, not loading". then i have to plug it out and in, same thing after 5-10 minutes.

if i reped this 3 -5 times, it starts loading normaly from 1% to 100%.

i just tryed co calibrate with different apps, with different how tos. the "battery monitor" always shows me the correct data, but nothink worked.

is there any way, to teach the kernel / system the biger capacity? mayby by editing the build.prop ro.semc.batt.capacit ? in the build.prob of the CM9FXP133 is no line like this to edit.

it cant be so difficult, to change a line from "1500" to "3400" if i know where...

if some of u have a idea ore the knowlege about this, pls let me know. i have no problem crashing kernel or sys files, fastboot and i are nearly best friends :) only my hardware should stay alive, its my second MK16. the first one deside to suicide in my toilet with "vibration movement"

i hope, u understand my tricky english :) sorry for that
[Xperia Arc Accessories] erlern:
To solve your charging problem... take out your battery completely and put it back in again and charge again.

To teach the kernel the new capacity requires more than just editing the build.prob. According to "bazoocaze" you need to change certain parts of the kernel also since the 1500 figure is hardcoded into the kernel.

Contact bazoocaze for more explanation. He gave me a test kernel for android 4.0, but that did not work well at all.

All the best!
[Xperia Arc Accessories] magicoffire:
thanks a lot for your answer.

Hi,

I would increase the life battery buying an extended battery. But I have seen about the problem of the battery info on the phone because the phone does not recognize the different battery.

I would like to know what happen if the mobile think that the battery is 0%, if the mobile shut down or if it remain always at 0%

Thank you!

(I suppose that you have already tried wipe battery stat to fix it)
[Xperia Arc Accessories] magicoffire:
the phone will work with this battery after u reache "0%" for 6 to 8 houers. you can work with the phone, till it reach the shurdown voltage.

the problem is, when u try to recharge. my android stops the charging after 5-10 minutes, if the batterylevel stays at 0%, to protect the phone from a damaged battery. i have to replug it 3-10 times, charge it 5 min til the phone shows 1%.

so i use the extended battery not over the "regulare" 100 to 0 %. only if i have no chance to recharge, i use the 6-8 hrs "extra 0% power" ^^

i tryed a lot of roms and kernels to fix that 0% loading problem, no way. the capatity of the battery is "hardcoded" in the kernel. u DEFENTLY have to correct tha capacity bevor compiling the kernel. changing the capacity maybe in the build.prob, u only scale the batterymonitor.

question: is it possible, to replace the hardcoded capatity with a changable state, maybe from a "capacity.ini" ?
[Xperia Arc Accessories] ahmed.gunz:
Does it do what we hope for battery life
[Xperia Arc Accessories] guerrez:
Is there someone who can manage that changes to the kernel?

I think it is a standard way also for other mobiles with extended battery... maybe more famous models, like some samsung...

[Xperia Arc Accessories] Bazoocaze:
Hi, guys

Inded I compiled a test kernel for some guys some time ago, but it does not work correctly. Also, they had very little feedback about the patch, so I had no tools to improve the patch.

Anyway, to success with this patch, you need some dev with a Pro device and an extended battery to help develop and debug the patch. I can try to help develop the patch, but I only have an Xperia Arc without extended battery, wich difficult the things a lot.

Below was the info I gathered from my resarch on the Xperia 2011 line battery drivers, to help a dev implement this patch:

- It uses the bq27520 fuel gauge chip for the battery capacity and charge. This chip reports the battery percent (and other parameters) via sysfs for the rest of the kernel and userspace. Look for the bq27520_battery.c on the Sony kernel for the chip driver code.

- The bq27520 chip natively supports learning of the total battery capacity (through a few charge/recharge cicles), but Sony programmed the driver to ignore this function and return a prefixed value of 1500 (1500mA). This value is a constant int value define in the device configuration file on the mogami folder, if I remember. I successfully rewrote the function to read and return the real battery capacity calculated by the bq27520, and it worked. You can rewrite this function to help get an accurate max capacity and battery percent - rewrite the function to use the chip, or change the battery capacity constant value directly from 1500 to the extended battery value (3400 for a 3400mA battery, and so on).

- The charger logic is implemented via software on the kernel - Sony calls it "Charging Algorithm". I don't remember the sorce code name (look for something like charging or algorithm), but the code has a set of protection measures to help prevent unsafe charging or battery conditions. One of the measures is a watchdog timer that resets every time the battery percent changes - if the battery percent stays the same for too many minutes the watchdog trigger (the trigger time is predefined in code), then the charge process is forcibly stopped by software, and you need to unplug and replug the charger. The problem with and extended battery is that it need more time charging for each 1% change, and this extra time may trigger the watchdog, stopping the charge. The logic uses the battery capacity read from the bq27520 driver, so if you change the battery capacity function, you need to rewrite the watchdog logic to compensate for the extra time - or if you leave the battery capacity function set to 1500, you will only get 1500mA of charge on an extended battery for each charge.

I hope this information can help someone to write a fully functional patch. I will monitor this thread to help answer questions.
[Xperia Arc Accessories] guerrez:
Thank you very much for your exhaustive answer! I am interested on this development, but I am not the one that can manage the problem, because of 2 mainly reasons:

- I am not able to change the kernel of a device

- I still don't have the battery of 3400mAh

So please if someone more expert than me and with that powered battery can try to modify the kernel, is welcome! :)
[Xperia Arc Accessories] magicoffire:
thanks for the informations.

i cant belive, that thers no "how to patch a kernel", because EACH person with a extended battery should have this problem!

or is this only a Sony mobile problem?

edit:

i collect some links about the same problem but on other phones.

Same issue on Xperia pro

I'm using SuperFusioN kernel and PAC rom on my Xperia pro with a ~2700mAh battery. Seeking on the kernel source files (bq27520_battery.c, as you said), I noticed that you already have been there (line 19: "Last modifications by Bazoocaze on 15:12 - 04 november 2011").

However, even with your patch, I've got the same problem on my device. The battery level goes crazy. :silly:

I'm a new developer on Android and mobile in general (this is my first post indeed :P), but I would like to help with this (and other) issues.

Please, tell me how. :confused:
[Xperia Arc Accessories] Bazoocaze:
Hi

That modification tag on the source should be my work on the "0% percent battery issue", not the "extended battery percent issue" (because I have never released such a patch ;) ).

I do not have my Xperia Arc anymore, so I cant help with this. But if you want to go on with this extended battery patch, I can guide you with some ideas at kernel code level.

If so, prepare the following:

- Unlocked bootloader Arc

- Arc Kernel source

- Kernel compiling system (compiler)

- Compile a kernel (without changes)

- Flash the Kernel (using FASTBOOT)

- Test the kernel - must run without issues

The tests stage will be (one or more of):

- Modify the sources (I will help with this)

- Compile + flash

- Test

My battery is below 15% there is a pop up. After few mins..about 1 or 2mins when it reaches 13% it jump to 1% and have the 1% pop up and then shut down.

Anyone have this problem?

Isit something to do with the values in system?

By rooting or flashing new ROM does it fixed the problem?

[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] jeriku:
You could try getting root, and wiping battery stats in CWM.
[Sony Xperia S, Acro S, Ion] snake_pliskin:
Never did I encounter that kind of problem. Anyway, my ION is just 9 days old as of now and I know that batteries has to go through a series of charge and discharge cycles before you can get its optimum performance.

What I did was insanely used my ION until its get to 5% of battery power left then charged it, I did that for a week. What I did on the eight day was quite different. When the battery reached 5% of its remaining power, I turned the unit OFF. Plugged in the wall charger then turned the unit ON. In this case, the operating system won't boot up. You'll just see an animated battery that tells you that it’s charging and left my ION on that state for 12 straight hours. Aside from that installed this little app and configured it.

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mobo.task.killer

Now, after eight hours of moderate usage I still got 80% of battery power remaining. Though Wi-fi is only turned on during manual sync. Bluetooth turned off since I despise bluetooth devices. NFC turned on only when needed. Brightness is always at the lowest level and only maxed out if needed.

You may not get the same results but I hope this helps. :cool:

I know this issue has been posted on a few other phones forums but i couldn't find one concerning the evo lte

I bought a few movies using the $25 from my nexus 7 and although i don't really plan on watching them on my evo lte. I get the "playback not supported on this device" my phone is on stock 1.22.651.3 710RD rooted with zedomax's method from here http://htcevohacks.com/htc-evo-4g-l...tc-evo-4g-lte-unlock-bootloadertwrp-recovery/ obviously i don't have s-off.

I tried to use Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper but unless i followed the 2 step process wrong it didn't work. Wanted to know if anyone has a fix for this?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Anthonicia:
I want to find a solution for this as well bc it is rather annoying to not be able to use certain apps, mainly tv and video apps. I'm holding off on rooting just because I want to use the free $25 in HTC watch. Wish they had more movies that were worth a crap and I would use it more.

I came across a thread that I believe fixed the issue for time warner cable app that only allows non-rooted users. Let me look for it and I will post it.

Be sweet if it worked for other apps as well.

Ask me about my ability to annoy complete strangers!

---------- Post added at 07:46 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:36 AM ----------

Can't find the exact post, but what they did was change the name of superuser.apk to something else. This is bc the time warner cable app only checked for that file to see if the device was rooted.

I'm surprised this isn't an issue for more people. It is one of the only things slowing me down to root. Well, this, gwallet bricking possibly, and the trouble of getting all the data back on my phone.

Well, good luck to u brotha

Ask me about my ability to annoy complete strangers!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rollerpig:
to update my situation i tried a few different things.

1) Voodoo OTA Rootkeeper to temporary unroot. Used root checked, said i did not have root access. Tried Play Movies & TV still get message "Playback not supported on this device". Restore root via Voodoo

2) Disable SuperSU in settings. Once again us RootChecker and confirms I dont' have root access. Still doesn't work. Restore SuperSU.

Here's my theory. My Google Wallet mentions i'm on an unsupported device. I temporarily unrooted and reset everything on google wallet and it still showed up as an unsupported device. Clearly whether i'm rooted or not doesn't effect this. I'm guessing the google apks looks for something else. Since I used zedomax's root method via htcdevunlock when i go to reboot into recovery i see along the top of the screen

**TAMPERED**

**UNLOCKED**

I'm guessing google is able to see this and this is causing problems. If i had full s-off it may not be an issue but I don't believe there is a safe S-OFF method for .3 yet.

If anyone could give me some tips i'd appreciate it otherwise I'm considering going back to being unrooted for now.

Also I want to make sure i thought Google Play Movies & TV allowed playback on rooted devices I've read several online articles that state they were suprised that google allows this. Is this still true? or is the latest update (2.0.21) not allow this
