I have the same problem. I think mine is 86% when the charging led turns green. It's a Nokia genuine battery.
Freemangordon, did you check on the Asha phone whether it is charging to 100% ??

Don't go by the %, what voltage is it reporting when charged?

if it is reporting over 4100mv (4.10V) then your over 90% not 80-85%

I think you'll need to recalibrate the battery chip.
you can buy this battery on nokia centers, specialy made for new phones like x1-01,i think the pure 808 use the 1430mAh, i am using same battery now,i took it to my x1-01,my battery is ok and longer last working thanks nokia

i also took a battery from X1-01. it only charges till 85.5 % never goes more than this. will check its voltage as Dr Frost suggested.

my phones own battery 1320 mAh one charges till 96% its quite old now and also doesn't hold charge for too long.

According to the changelog for KP51,
"Added bq2415x charger driver (blacklisted by default)"
http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=445

Is that related to the problem with new BL-5J batteries?
Anything I should test?

@toxaris,

It's not directly related, but with KP51 and bq2415x enabled you can effectively get rid of BME and the kernel will take care of charging the battery nicely.

I've done that. I have even uninstalled BME, and charging works. Obviously the battery meter doesn't work (it shows always half-full, that's how it was when I removed bme). But I just monitor the voltage and extrapolate in my head (basically, take the voltage in mv, subtract 3000 and you get a rough estimate of the mAh). Good enough for me I'd say.

I see three problems with that:

(1) I'm too old fashioned. Never used git or any revision/version control systems. Just plain Makefile. But I can learn.

(2) I actually would prefer to turn Maemo into something more Linux-standard-ish. Meaning no BME. Hopefully also no HAL and even no DBUS (somehow I despise anything supported by freedesktop.org -- don't know why -- it seems there's a coordinated effort to over-complicate things).

(3) Lack of time.

I'll nevertheless have a look at the code and see if I can figure out anything. I never made an effort to understand some parts of Maemo. Instead I just wanted to get rid of them (BME, DSME, HAL, OHM). I can I live with DBUS.. for now

Add.: I forgot upstart. I don't like it. It makes the whole boot process unduly complicated. The N900 doesn't need all of that. Just a "linear" boot script and another shutdown script.
