Flashed device, battery resetted 100%

[Imperium]

Hey i flashed my device with the battery at around 80%.

after the flash it was 100%...

so this means i just lost 20% of my capacity? how do i fix this?

I don't believe you have lost capacity. It's only your gauge that's slightly altered. If you recharge your device fully(and about an extra 30min) you should have the regular capacity :)

How could going from 80% to 100% equate to a lost ??? :confused:

it's posible that you'd gained the extra charges while the flashing process was going on ( because it was plugged in ?? ) ... if it wasn't ... no idea why :cool:

If i understand the post correctly they are equating am 80% to 100% a loss for 2 reasons:
1. because he would have lost charge while flashing due to the massive battery drain.
2. because now he is stating that his 100% is really only 80%


but i would probably just leave it charge overnight and you should be fine, the gauge just sounds to be off, it shouldnt be a true loss (unless the battery is bad)

Is there any other way to sync the battery with the device? I been trying a full discharge then charge.

I am using a mugen extended 3000mah battery and at 15% 10% and 1% it will stay there for some time before it starts to go down or turn off completely if it is reaches less than 1%.

I don't think you've lost capacity.
I believe you just did a quick check before flashing (and it was already charging before you started right?), and the battery gauge wasn't updated. I had this a couple of times while recharging. I take a quick look and think "this is gonna take another half hour". Five minutes latter I check and the charge led is green again.
Sometimes the battery metter lags a bit, you have to check it again to be sure when charging.
At least it happens to me.

a few cycles of full charge and discharge should put the battery meter in check...

Alrighty. I have done three so far. It has gotten better then the first time I got it. But its not perfect.

is it safe to discharge it to 0% so that it will shutdown? or what?
