i noticed this two nights in a row - i'd plug my phone to charge overnight and wake up to find that it's only charged up to ~85% (84% first night, 86% second night). below is a screenshot. both nights, the starting charge level was around 5%.
first night i used a 500mAh wall charger, second night i used an apple iphone 1A charger. i know some of you will say that's the reason why it didn't charge to 100%, but the Amp rating only affects how FAST it charges, not how much it charges. i have a 500mAh charger at my desk i use all the time, and it has no problem charging to 100% during the day, but my starting charge level is usually over 50% during those times.
you can see that shortly past midnight, the phone stopped charging (top green bar), and the battery charge level is obviously under 100% (2nd graph). the "device usage" is a little curious though (4th graph), i just noticed that the screen turned on at the same time the charging stopped.
