I've got a Captivate, and would love to help with batt logs, since I also get some weird level jumping with strangely fast or slow charges and the same for discharges. But I have 3 different batteries all with the same issues -- as if it's their fault . . . I ordered one impatiently and had one replaced w/in the 30 days by AT&T -- after having so many rapid discharge issues with my original batter.

However, I am noobish and am having trouble grasping the instructions above. But I have to use one of the above commands, since I can't get OS Monitor to print out the dmesg logs that i am seeing all over this thread -- no matter what I do. I even uninstalled and re0installed from the market (without restoring data from TiBu). All I get is seemingly useless jupiter-battery messages (only when set to debug or none -- I get nothing on any other Filter Log settings).

So, I guess I have to use command line, but I know how exact this has to be and am a bit worried -- even about picking an arbitrary filename, and subsequently finding said file. Also wondering about that first command -- don't i need to put "batt" in there somewhere to filter the dmesg logs to be more useful to this thread?

I have Terminal Emulator installed and I'd love to help with batt stats. But I'd also like to have some idea why I can't get this to work in OS Monitor.

I really have tried assiduously to read the thread, but my noob status and electrical engineering ignorance, coupled with the size of this post and lack of updated OP are taxing even my honed research skills.

Thanks in advance for the help that will allow me to contribute (possibly).

I will try to post the jupiter logs here (from my phone) in case they are of any use, esp. since I need to learn to link or attach to posts here anyway.

OK, that was annoying. I was able to cut/paste from browser (did NOT check .html format when saving from OS Monitor) into

tags -- but had to manually re-space with lots of [/enter]'s. [I]*sigh*[/I]

Any way to make posting the code easier -- at least in terms of not having to manually reformat it for legibility?
