Battery problem

[mr.inter]

Just let it run down to a point where it stops by itself to finish the calibration. What it still doesn't know is how far it can go, and the only thing to make that happen is to let it drain over the normal course of use.

Are you having any problems keeping it charged and it plays out at a bad time? I run min a good 12 hours of fairly heavy use, markets, news, downloads and it usually get down to the point of I have less than 5% remaining then I get home and its going on 13 to 16, use it for mail and TV Guide and after about 18 hours I plug it in by my night stand and take it off charge when my alarm goes off.

No I get pretty decent battery life, with a minimum of 24 hours of usage (with around 6-7 hours of display on and 6-8 hours of wifi on) Even if I let the battery fully drain, Battery Left still shows 95% calibration. However, sometimes if I unplug it from charge as soon as Battery Monitor Widget reaches 100%, I start using it and then at some point it drops drastically, for example it dropped from 90% to 50%.

This happened again, it dropped from 84% straight to 50%. In a few words, all that has to do with the battery in this phone is totally messed up. Can it be a solution if I SBF to Froyo and re-install GB?

Maybe, but really sounds like you have a bad battery.

But how can it be bad if it is giving me decent lifetime?

What is the charge time. Does it charge faster than normal ?

It charges normally, however in order not to have any sudden battery drops, I have to leave it connected to the charger after it reaches 100%.

My phone, pretty much does the same thing. But only right after I pull it off the charger. It drops from 100% to 90% right away. After that, it drains pretty normal, for and android.

Is there a method to fully delete battery stats apart from CWM method or deleting batterystats.bin? I would like to restore battery data as though the phone has been switched on for the first time. I'm not willing to SBF right away.
