you might have a bad cell, do you have another battery to test with?

But then there is a problem, my battery indication is wrong after installing this kernel.
The battery indicator shows empty and shows the low battery warnings when conky indicates that there is around 50% charge left.
I'm new to overclocking and its the first time I changed kernel. So can anybody help me out here. The low battery warnings seem annoying.

EDIT: Well, considering the charge shown by conky, I wasnt expecting the phone to shut off but apparently, it did shut off after a couple of low battery warnings. And the phone wouldnt boot up plugged into a charger. But it booted up when I removed the charger and reconnected it when the "dots" boot screen showed up.

And now cinky still reports 49% charge but it seems battery temperature has increased from 34 to 44degrees.

So what part of this is flawed? Is it bme or is it conky?
