Battery Health

[zujko]

Hello. U11 is 2 days old, i have three filling (battery charges) cycles. This application (AccuBattery) shows 94% of capacity, instead of 100% and 2831mAh.
Is this normal or..?
Stock rom, unrooted..
Any sugestion for this weird problem?
Tnx

I think it's normal.
I also tried that app to know the battery's health. My result was 90% (I have the phone from one week lol). I think it can get a more accurate number as you make charge cycles.
At the end, at least as far as I'm concerned, I decided to uninstall it without making too much problems, but I try to keep the battery between 30-80%.
Hope this helps

Only one single charge cannot verify. The number you got is probably false.
Try more charges. Mine stabled at 102%...weird

you can never have the actual capacity
simply because the calculation is missing the actual amperage output
it only calculates based on the voltage so it is never 100 percent correct
also the battery is not charged to 3000 mah to the full capacity there is always 100-200 mah less for safety and durability

You have proof of this? These batteries are plenty safe as long as they aren't overcharging and while charging your battery to 100% does indeed stress it out and decrease charge/discharge cycles, advertising 3000mAh and only giving 2800-2900mAh is false advertisement.

I use high drain 25 amp 3000mAh 18650s daily and they're unprotected IMR cells. Been on my same Samsung 25Rs for almost a year with no noticeable degradation despite the fact that they pump a hell of a lot more juice than my phone does. Battery degradation is due more to cheap cells than actually charging them to capacity. Overcharging, on the other hand, obviously is extremely dangerous but the phone has safeguards for that and that's also why rapid charging shuts off as the battery gets a higher charge because that's when they start to get hot (my 18650s charge at 0.67A each until the mod hits 129.1F board temp which causes my mod to pull the amperage back to around 0.58 when nearing the end - my mod can do that with an 80 dollar board and the same circuitry exists in HTC phones).

assuming that you mean a proof for battery capacity
yes you get a 3000 mah battery but you can't chargr it to 3000
same as when you get a 64 gb storage but you can't use them all because the built in software takes space this example is an answer to you question about false advertisement.
taking my laptop for example it never charges to the mah capacity even when the software is stating 100 percebt charge

Your laptop battery is defective then. Laptop batteries are simply packs of 18650 cells arranged together. They're likely cheap cells.

My 3000mAh LG HG2 20A 18650 batteries are rated for 3000mAh but one is 3080mAh and the other is 3070mAh.

It is false advertisement to sell a battery with a 3000mAh battery and then cut the cell off before it is fully charged. If they want to do that, they need to put a 3200mAh battery in and cut it off at 3000mAh which would be smart anyway considering that cell phones do something horrible for lithium ion technology - they continue to trickle charge when the battery is full. Lithium ion batteries don't like to be at full charge and will degrade faster from being kept there which is why it's never recommended to leave your battery on the charger overnight.

2868mah, but it's an estimated figure according to the app and based off one charge.

I get around 6-8 hrs SOT so I'm not complaining.

Now is little better
Charging to computer (overnight).
Slow charge is better than QC 3.0, for health

you can use battery charge limit to prevent overcharging
I limit it to 95 percent
just a simple tweak in the app's settings to choose battery charging_enabled
