Hi guys, I have what i believe to be an entirely unique problem!
When my phone is fully charged it will discharge down to about 20% sometimes 15% then it will turn off instantly without warning.
Now if i start to charge the phone again and unplug it when it gets to say 20% it will give me 20% of power. Ie. i will get the 15% 10% and 5% warnings.
I have checked with the power usage graph and it shows gradual decline to 20% then *bam straight to 0%.
I have just noticed that when i fully charge the phone, while it is on, the graph steadily increases to 80% then goes direct to fully charged.
I have just preformed a battery calibration, Ie. fully charge while powered on unplug power off charge to full, power on charge again and it still doesn't work.
It is also not a problem with the battery as i have 2, both HTC branded, with the same results.
The problem initial happened while on Froyo and i recently updated to Gingerbread via the HTC website and it hasn't fixed it.
Any ideas? I suspect the phone is somehow preventing the battery from fully charging and then misrepresenting the charge available.
Thanks for any help.
