Battery gauge issues?

radzer0 · May 18, 2012

So ive noticed that the phone will charge and discharge like crazy under around 60%. After that it takes forever to charge and forever to go down.

Is this some kind of battery defect im experencing? I do have the real samsung extended battery.

I've not seen nor heard of this problem. It sounds like it could be a battery problem or a problem with the battery data and reporting. Have you pulled the battery? Have you let it fully charge to 100%? Fully discharge?
Are you charging via the AC adapter that come with the phone? The phone wants 1 amp and many aftermarket or other mfg chargers may only put out 500 milliamps. Same with USB. That may explain slow charging.
