    Default Strange Battery behavior (not a battery life thread)

    Recently, I dropped my Galaxy Nexus (which is running stock with the latest GB update) from the couch.
    The phone seemed fine except everything related to the battery has gone nuts.
    I've rebooted, drained and fully charged the phone, etc, etc.
    I have not reset to factory however.

    Here's what I'm seeing:
    1. When I connect the charger to it, it sometimes wont charge. Some other times, it charges just fine. I've tried all chargers.
    2. When the battery falls below 15%, it constantly keeps flashing the low battery reminder.
    3. The battery history screen wont update even if I refresh it. It just shows like I have just disconnected the phone from the charger.

    I did read about the charging pin getting slightly bent, I did nudge that up slightly--and that seems to have helped with issue #1...but 2 and 3 still remain.

    Again, stock, never been rooted.

    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Did you pull the battery for a few minutes? Also, does the battery still fit nice and tight against the pins?

    Yes...and Yes.
    I read elsewhere that the small charging pin sometimes bends downwards a bit more than usual....I tried to push that up a bit.
    That seems to help a little with the charging scenario...but why the battery stats screen has gone crazy makes no sense.

    I agree. I would suggest a factory reset then.
