Strange Rezound battery charge issue

[Ed Witles]

Gang -

Just charged via phone and was sitting at 68% up from 21%.

Switched from USB storage to charge only, it is now 100%.

Did nothing else....

Oh, running BAMF w/ 3++.

this has been happening to my TB for awhile now whether on TB or rezound battery. Thought it was normal

Guess I could charge via the charger to 100% and then install battery and clear stats.

I'm having similar issues recently with stock battery. I watch the input current drop as the charge increases to the point that it stalls. Then last night I unplugged when it stalled around 80%, went upstairs, plugged back in and immediately it was 100%.

How do you clear the stats?

You can download "Battery Calibration" and run that. Works really well

is there an app for non root users?

This was my next question as well. I am not rooted either. Is there something that can be done without rooting?

Unfortunately if your not rooted, you cant reset/wipe battery stats on your own

Mine does the same thing but I am getting what I would expect as far as battery life goes so it doesn't concern me. The reason it is doing this is because the programs think you have the 2750mah extended battery in there so when it hits what it thinks is 70% of the 2750mah, its actually hitting 100% on the rezound battery. I really don't see any major problem with this.

I'm only using the stock battery and that is all I've ever used. It seems the problem is getting progressively worse.

YOUR phone has to be ROOTED

After discussion with a rep I know, we decided to get a replacement sent out for the charging problem. Refurb arrived yesterday and looked perfect. It charged correctly and all looked to be back on track and then I discovered it had shut itself off and I had to pull the battery to get it to boot again. I thought for a moment I had my wife's Bionic, but no, it was the replacement TB. After it shut down randomly 2 more times in as many hours, I called and I have another replacement on the way. Hopefully this won't be a horror story of multiple phones like ones I have read about...

I was also having charging issues. Tried batteries, chargers, usb, a/c, clearing stats yet nothing helped. Had to get a refurbished phone. All my problems are gone. Seems to be a issue with the Thunderbolt itself, and not the battery.

After waiting a couple extra days for the 2nd refurb due to Christmas holiday, this one is better. Everything appears to work correctly and I'm back in business.
