pls no apple fanboys!

anyways, check out the pix and u will notice that with the Apple battery meter, the % is at 78% but when i enable the SBSettings Battery Meter, it drops down about 2% to 76%. At about 1:04PM, I went back and forth with it about 15 times and the -+ fluctuated between 2-3% every time... Maybe 2 or 3% isnt a big deal but i just think its weird....:confused:

SBsettings has always been seen as the more accurate % for a battery meter. I don't know the details but numerous sources say sbsettings uses more info to determine battery%.

I know before without sbsettings battery. My phone has shown 5% battery remaining and has turned off for 10 minutes of charge.

Let it go below 20% and leave it charged until it hits 100%. That usually re-calibrates the battery problem...

Did you try powering off and on your phone? I find in the morning after charging, I can check messages and do other things and it very quickly drops from 100% to 97% or so. Like within a couple minutes. I power-cycle and when it comes back on, the level is back at 100%.

Well standard software is made by the manufacter who also makes the hardware, so chances are it will be more accurate.

yepp... just as accurate as the signal bars before 4.0.1 :rolleyes:

(off topic, sorry) i believe your killswitch should be set to off

oops, good catch... lol thanks!
