ok, can do, not that it will help much unloaded.

I'll charge the original cell and post the results shortly.

The battery management wont always turn the battery off at the same point as the battery ages it will change. You have to bare in mind that a battery is a little like a piece of rubber the harder you push on it the bigger the dent but when you stop pushing it recovers its shape.

The same goes for the voltage of a battery, when you draw a large current the voltage will drop further than if the device is in standby but once you disconnect the load there will be an amount of recovery

li-ion batterys are far more complicated than they first appear.

The battery is by no means connected directly to the phone.

there is a microprocessor in the battery that controls both charge and discharge via 2 fet transistors, buy doing this it protects you against the battery exploding/catching fire from over charging or over discharging.

As far as im awaire the microprocessor will adjust both switch on and switch off from many variables not just voltage drop.

The phone its self mearly supplies power to the charger built into the battery and draws power from the battery all the measurement and battery managment is within the battery

This is why the battery suddenly just stops and you need power to bring it back to life.

so in theory no matter what the condition of the battery it should always give a full scale deflection from full to empty as the onboard management should know how much capacity is left in the cell and report this via the data lines to the phone

If you connect a bulb to an almost flat li-ion battery you will find little drop in brightness before the battery just cuts power totaly to protect the cell within from over discharge.

Something that springs to mind that hasnt been mentioned here is have you checked all 4 battery contacts are clean? just a thought because the two larger outer pads provide power while one or both of the smaller pads send data on the charge status to the phone.

heres some interesting reading

http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm

Intresting reading on the care of li-ion as they dont like being either fully charged or fully discharged..strange eh...

http://www.maxim-ic.com/appnotes.cfm/appnote_number/128

http://www.intersil.com/data/an/AN1174.pdf

two examples of li-ion battery management.

safety law dictates any li-ion that is user replaceable must have one of these little chaps built in.

hope that makes sence

RE

Sorry zarn, but I don't have a digital multimeter.

Is your test going to prove that the battery is going to its end of life soon?

How could that be since the Universal is less than a year old? :roll:

At any rate I'll be testing my battery on another Universal without the QTEK ROM update to determine whether its a battery issue or the ROM update issue.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zarn:
Im just going to do it out of interest... like i said in the previous post its not likely to prove anything except if the guys battery is totaly out of whack
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] josedias:
Dear Fosa and Zarn,

I’ve already known those URLs:

http://www.batteryuniversity.com/parttwo-34.htm

http://www.maxim-ic.com/appnotes.cfm/appnote_number/128

I liked very much this article:

http://www.maxim-ic.com/appnotes.cfm/appnote_number/128

However, when I asked to verify the voltage of the battery and without taking it off the charger, I’ve put two tiny wires on the terminal of the battery, in the manner I could verify the voltage without taking it off from the Jasjar. Last night I’ve left it charging until the green-led light and I’ve noticed that the voltage was 4,231V = to 100% on the battery power remaining miter.

I’ve did a test putting the light of 4V to discharge the battery, and at the 2,83V, it disconnected automatically (stopped to supply current). In more or less one minute, it starts to provide energy again, in other words, the protection circuit of the battery is Ok, and is not with this tension (2,83v) that the Jasjar stops, and only when is 3,28v.

I’ve got the feeling that the problem is on the ROM, however I did reinstall the original ROM and yet the Jasjar still crashes at 58% of the battery(= 3,28v).

Before making the upgrade the miter was going from 100% to 5% without crashing.

With the ROM Qtek WWE_13077_130176_10900 the miter shows 100% to 42%, and at this point it starts to crash.

I’ve already bought a new battery just to test it, but it still not arrived from Hong Kong, and as the customs is on strike here in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, I don’t know when I’ll get it.

Until now I think the problem is that the Qtek ROM made some changes on the firmware or in the register of the battery, changing the miter calibration.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zarn:
Battery results

Im suprised it cut of that low, thats very low for a 3.7v li-ion, thats more what you would expect from a 3.2v.

Anyways, as requested heres the resuts of checking the voltage at various points.

This is using an original dynapack 1620mah battery as supplied by orange with the phone, but its around 3 or 4 months old now so far from fresh.

the meter used was a Avo M801 (not a cheap one though is probably due to be calibrated...)

100%----4.16v straight off charge still warm

75%-----3.93v

50%-----3.78v

38%-----3.76v

25%-----3.73v

10%-----3.65v

5%------3.63v

cutoff----3.58v

Im going to do the same with the extended batterys im having problems with just as a comparison, will post the results here if anyone is interested
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zarn:
Whats going off here...?

I just put one of the extended batterys in which was fully charged..

to be greated with a blank batery bar, and unknown in the chargeing remaining window... unpluged and repluged the charger and was then told battery at 225%

doh.....
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] josedias:
Jasjar battery miter

Hi Zarn

Thanks a lot for the table of % * V, now I am certain convinced that the Jasjar miter needs to be calibrated again, I believe that the problem is the DLL or the responsible register for this detail(miter)?

While I or somebody of the forum does not find the solution, I will continue using this way, because the battery still lasts for 24h.
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] FOSA:
RE

OK guys, bad news :(

I used my battery which knocks out at 43% from my QTEK 9000 set and put it into another QTEK 9000 set without ROM update and it also fails to boot up unless I connect it to an external power

I hope that QTEK can release a small ROM update to resolve this issue
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] zarn:
so hang on..

you put your battery into another non updated rom handset and it still wasnt working properly...

surely that means your battery is at fault not the rom..

cant u borrow the other guys battery for a few hours?

Are these original batterys were talking about btw (1620mah dynapacks)?

or cheap replacements?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] FOSA:
RE

Hi zarn,

My battery is the original default battery....the Universal is less than a year old

Could it be that the new ROM update has changed something in the battery...maybe the IC chip in the battery, if any?
[JASJAR, XDA Exec, MDA Pro General] FOSA:
RE

zarn,

If you'll read another similar thread you'll find many others with different variants of the Universal facing the same problem after upgrading the new QTEK ROM update with A2DP

Are you saying their batteries are faulty too...such a coincidence?

Every time i go to a mostly black screen (my homescreen is pretty bare and black) i notice that the screen dims the brightness slightly.

This happened with the stock rom and now again with GPE.

Auto-Brightness is if course disabled.

Reminds me of my old samsung TV which did the same unless i enabled the "movie mode".

It bugs me slighly, can i somehow turn it off?

He didn't read the question properly, twice. He has nothing to contribute, like you. You two are just wasting my time.

And yes, despite adaptive lighting being off it's still doing it to a small degree. If you dont notice it, fine. If you dont know why its doing it, fine. Just don't reply.

[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] dannejanne:
I have noticed the same "issue" as the OP and it slightly bugs me too. Whenever I go back to the homescreen with a dark wallpaper the screen slightly dims. And this has nothing to do with "adapt to lightning conditions" as I always have it off.

I guess it can be something related to the "contend adaptive brightness" feature that some phones has but that feature should only dim lighter backgrounds. I guess there's nothing we can do to prevent it from happening.

Holy ****, you're not making any friends around here.

What you have to do to solve this issue is to... search. I can't just give you the answer.

So other then your "social" comment, which is neither wanted nor in any way usefull, you are basically saying i should search.

Great advice, thank you!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Correct. I could give you the answer, but I don't help rude people, and I would say that you have to be rather dense if you ask people a question, insult them and then expect to get the answer. Great move, Mr. Hawking!
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] schmolch:
Oh, now suddenly you have the answer, right. PM it to dannejanne then since he has the same issue but was neither rude nor insulting.
[Sony Xperia Z Ultra] LordManhattan:
Let's just say that I read a similar thread about a week ago. Not in the Ultra section, but in a model Z section (Z/Z1 etc.). I believe the answer was in that thread.

I'm not joking. That thread exists. You can either believe me and spend time looking for that thread, or you can ignore this and still have no answer.
[General Questions and Answers] ezlo28469:
I'm not sure where the right place to post this is, but maybe it can be moved to the right subforum. I have an Optimus Slider that is bricked. It is now stuck at the LG Logo. I do not have CWM installed, because I hadn't gotten around to doing that yet. Here is my problem: While I have the rom zip, bin, dlls, etc... I have tried booting into recovery and flashing the ROM from update.zip, but it says that it is not signed. I have tried the Smartflashtool, but it does not list any ports, thus I cannot do anything (though in Emergency Mode, my phone is on COM9). I have tried adb and fastboot, but they say device not found. I have even tried this: search "unbrick almost no matter what only lg optimus slider q unbrick coming soon" (with quotes)

It seems that if I could just get into a bootloader, flash a recovery image, or get a stock rom that is signed(even though the one I have apparently is) to just flash, I could be back up and running. Unfortunately, I am hitting a wall on every method I try. Please, can anybody help me?
