Is it just me, or is there something wrong with the battery level indicator with Wm6?

At first i thought it was my battery, but now i bought a brand new one, and it still dies at around 50%.

The actual battery length is correct, so it's not that critical, but it's nice to have the low battery warnings at 15% 10% etc...

Is there a solution (or work being done) to this? IF not, post your experience here, so we can try find out who it's affecting and why. (I know i'm not the only one with this problem)

Using that pro business v3 and radio 1.17.

I use a create WM6 ROMS and don't have any issues with my battery (it goes down to 1%)

So I would like to suggest a few things...

1). ALWAYS fully charge your battery before any ROM update.

2). NEVER buy a non OEM battery (cheap knock-offs)

3). UPDATE your bootloader to the latest version.

If you have followed the above steps and still have issues, then I would suspect you have some type of hardware issue. To check this flash the OEM ROM back to the device and see if the problem still exists.

Let me know how it goes for you...

Take care,
